| Additional comments or suggestions? | Dj did not come dressed as told. Dj not not announce bride and groom as told. Told everyone else to announce stuff when all of us were busy with wedding stuff. Dj was horrible and will never use him again. Needless to say he got no tip. Horrible experience |
| Would you recommend this service to others? | No |
RESPONSE FROM DJ, "
All of that is untrue except the fact that when they entered the reception the announcement was delayed. This was because they did not que me when they entered. They complained to me during dinner about the sound level being too low but I was told to play dinner music by them and it says dinner music on outline. My definition of dinner music is not bass out a bunch of senior citizens while they eat but play good average level volume music for dinner like I always do. Once he complained to me I turned it up anyway. The entire night he went around and complained to me about everything. Then when the night was over the groom apologized to my helper and I for yelling at us all night. He said he felt bad for yelling and that he was just nervous and wanted it to be perfect. His words exactly. I actually met them two weeks before and helped them plan their wedding. There were only the two mistakes that I made with the announcement and sound volume during dinner everything else was done exactly as we had gone over during their wedding coordination meeting.
Dj Statzz"OUTCOME: DJ offered partial refund, client was satisfied with outcome.
