I’m Ryan, I specialize in weddings, and I’m damn good at it. My style is Wedding Planner meets DJ. My goal, understand your vision, and execute every event flawlessly. Same applies for your music. I want to KNOW your tastes and preferences. I want to KNOW the family and groups in attendance that we are entertaining. This lets me navigate your reception flow and style it to your vision and gives me background insights while reading the dance floor. Ultimately leading to the best wedding experience possible.

“Working with Ryan at MC Pro DJ's was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From our first call, he listened closely to what we wanted and turned our vision into reality on the big day. Ryan kept us in the loop the entire time, checking in before each new song or transition to make sure we were happy with how things were flowing and making sure the timeline was being stuck to. He brought such positive energy to the reception and kept everyone dancing and engaged all night long. His professionalism and genuine care for making our day special really set him apart. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ, and we'd recommend him to any couple in a heartbeat.”

“The experience we had with Kishek was amazing! They have a standard package that included everything we needed from a photo booth service. They did not disappoint! All of our guests had a blast at their station and they definitely made it more memorable for all.”

“From the moment I first contacted Sarah and SLT Makeup Artistry, her communication was clear, prompt, and she expressed genuine excitement to work with me for my wedding. On the day of the wedding, Sarah brought amazing vibes to the bridal suite - she was upbeat, made everyone feel comfortable, and transformed us into stunning, picture-perfect versions of ourselves. The makeup she used was not only high-quality and long-lasting, but her artistry truly made me and all of my bridesmaids feel absolutely beautiful. SLT Makeup Artistry exceeded all of our expectations and I cannot recommend them highly enough!”
