We had Second Song and specifically DJ Mac DJ our wedding. We had SUCH a blast at our wedding and heard after the fact from many people what a blast they had and how they couldn't ever leave the dance floor when constant hits were playing. Mac was so easy to work with and personable, and his charisma shined on our wedding day without ever taking away from anything. He was great at keeping up the energy.

COS Celebrations Entertainment was an excellent choice for our wedding entertainment. Corey was great at communicating - we had 2 zoom meetings with him and he had his own app to help coordinate music and announcements. He was a one stop shop, as we also used their photobooths and loved how they were able to put our logo on the prints. My venue was indoor outdoor and I wanted speeches done outside, and Corey was great about setting up wireless mics and speakers to make that happen. My friends went nuts when he started playing sax - he really got the party started and kept the dance floor packed all night long. He even helped edit our first dance.

Dave was an awesome DJ! I put all my trust in him and he made our day so wonderful! We had a smaller wedding 55 people so I was a little worried about people not wanting to get up and dance or have a good time. But leave it to Dave to get people involved, I was impressed! I had a few ideas that we discussed over the phone and he was open and honest with me about how the event would flow so we changed some things up based on that. The reception flowed beautifully.

All the music followed our requests to a T, and our guests are still raving about the party! Mike knew exactly when to cut songs short and when to keep the energy high, plus he was fantastic at emceeing when needed. We had two grand entrances, and both were absolutely adorable and perfect.
