Review from Michelle

Chris Webb far exceeded our expectations as the DJ for our wedding. When I first talked to Chris on the phone, I got a great vibe. He was personable, patient, and a great listener with a sense of humor. He asked all the right questions. I could tell he truly wanted to capture what we wanted for music on our wedding day.

He played our music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception.
Our music ranged from a movie theme song to bossa nova and pop music for dancing.
He got every single detail right. He called up people who were saying toasts, called up tables for the buffet and made sure we stopped dancing for the cake cutting ceremony.
His timing was impeccable! He also knew which requests from guests to accept and which to decline. Our dance floor was full the entire night right up to the end. So many guests raved about our DJ.
A bonus here is that Chris is affordable.
We loved having Chris as our DJ and I think we even miss him!
