I have nothing but excellent things to say about Maritime Mobile DJ Services.
From the day we initially met him, over a year before the actual wedding, we were immediately please by his very friendly personality, his openness to our specific ideas, his suggestions and how well organized he seemed to be.
Upon reflection on the fact that our wedding ceremony and reception is now all said and done, I can honestly say that what remains with me as my most cherished memories of our wedding are :
1. How lucky I am to have such a wonderful and beautiful wife.
2. How smoothly all the proceedings of the evening went.
3. How much fun we and our guests had the whole night.
We met with Robert twice the week following our wedding; the first time to confirm the exact proceedings of the night (it's incredible how details change over the course of a year!) and the second time was the day before the wedding to finalize a list of specific songs we wanted for the wedding (bridesmaids' entrance, bride's entrance, signing of the legal papers, bride and groom exit, etc.). We were a little slow at finalizing this list but our last minute detail planning didn't phase Robert one bit. Robert's personality is so approachable and friendly that we would have been comfortable to ask to meet with him again, if needed.
The reception is when I though Robert really shined. Selecting songs based on vague directives such as "age appropriate music for the first hour-ish", he somehow managed to bridge that kinda awkward inter-generational dancing gap with great fun classics. This really got every single potential dancer in that room up on their feet and on the dance floor. We had a blast from the first song!
It must be said that both our families are not big "dancers" and I was a little worried that the party would die down fast after the music started but everybody was dancing their heart out. It was really perfect!
Naturally the older crowd was going to dissipate faster and I though Robert did a great job of transitioning from "age-appropriate" to more modern dance music based on the request he was getting throughout the night.
We had hired Robert until 1:00 am and people were having so much fun that, at 12:45, the people on the dance floor were begging for the music to continue a little longer. That's how much fun our guests were having. Robert kindly agreed to play longer than anticipated (we paid him extra).
A final noteworthy thing that we really appreciated a lot was that, although Robert does not speak french very fluently and our wedding was entirely in french, he was game at announcing himself to the crowd in both languages (with a little help from one of my groomsman).
Like I said, above, I have nothing but excellent things to say about Maritime Mobile DJ Services! Our entire experience was absolutely excellent!
