My family had heard that this company had done school dances before and had a good review from a friend's wedding. However, we were extremely disappointed with the DJ named Tarik that was sent to do our reception. It was a bad start when the DJ called only two days before the wedding and seemed to not have any idea what songs we had requested and sent to the company many weeks before. I was a little worried but trusted that this man was a professional and was just trying to double check with me.

When the wedding party arrived at the reception hall, the DJ met us at the entrance. My husband and I, along with many members of our bridal party noticed that the DJ looked stoned. He seemed quite confused the entire time we were getting ready to walk in. My husband and I were immediately worried that he would not be able to do his job professionally.

The worst part of the experience with this DJ was that in his speech to get people excited for the bridal party to come in, he said "Let's get this mother effer started." Although this language would not be appropriate for ANYONE's reception, we were even more appalled because we had in attendance 50 children under the age of 13 and had mentioned both in our request form and over the phone about our young crowd.

During dinner, the DJ played music which was too loud and when asked to turn it down was arguing that he knew better. (His speakers were right by some elderly). He was also reported as having told a few of our guests that this was either his first or second time ever DJ-ing an event. During the dance he was rarely next to the booth and did not play songs that were requested and was seen frequently going outside.

Lastly, I felt extremely embarrassed by the DJ when we had our mother son and father daughter dance. We had requested that both pairs would dance to the same song. When it came time for the dance, the DJ introduced only my father and I. So I quickly told him it would also be my mother in law and my husband. Over the microphone he said, "Oh...I guess the mother and son will also dance. I've never seen this done before. We'll see how it goes..."

Overall, my husband and I, along with our families felt embarrassed by this DJ in front of our close family and friends. We were very disappointed in the service that was provided to us by Midwest Sound.
