Overall DJ Performance Rating: Excellent

Is there anything specific we can improve on?

Not really I think Jeff did a great job. He kept things moving, Helped our photographer stay within the light we had available and helped us deal with the heat.......although there was a little breeze.

Additional comments or suggestions?

Jeff did a great job and kept the agenda moving per the original list. We had a great...although hot time. Dingus McGees made the event fun, the food was great, and everybody commented on the great music.
I will definitly recommend Great Rate DJs and Jeff to all my friends.
Thanks.

Although the DJ did not get to all the song requests that I had made for certain portions of the event and changed some of the music, the vibe he set and the announcements were spot on. Everyone had a great time.

Additional comments or suggestions?

DJ's like to express their own artistic sensibilities and will arrange the music accordingly. Do not bother with extensive music selections the DJ will do his best to get all of it in but will sometimes not be able to.
