    Exactly the Vibe We Were Looking For

    DJ Lee absolutely delivered at our wedding! We gave him the general vibe we were looking for, and he took it from there. The dance floor was full all night long, and our guests had an amazing time. He was great to work with throughout the process, and we never had to worry about the music or flow of the evening. We are so glad we hired him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!

    Not Your Average Wedding DJ

    When looking for a DJ, we wanted more than just someone who would press play on a playlist. We gave Lee a list of a few of our favorite artists and a “do not play” list, but we told him to just feel the vibe of the room and he did!! We got compliments from our guests all night about how great the music was! The dance floor was packed all night and he did an incredible job! Lee is worth every penny and we would recommend him to any couple!

    Lee was amazing!

    DJ Lee Michaels was an absolute hit at our wedding! His communication style was direct, simplified, and expert - exactly what we were looking for. The quality of his work and value was unbeatable, with true DJ talent, industry experience, and an innate ability to know exactly what the crowd (and us) wanted. Lee brought so much energy to the dance floor, knew exactly how to keep everything flowing exactly as we wanted, and made the process with him extremely simple. He also seamlessly coordinated with our saxophone player and some surprise performers we had throughout the night. So many of our guests told us it was the BEST wedding dance floor they've ever attended - Lee has an amazing way to mix songs and make the best party. The night flew by and we had so much fun. We were very serious in our planning that we did not want a "wedding DJ" but knew we needed someone with the appropriate experience, and Lee exceeded all of our expectations. Hire Lee!

    The best!

    Lee is the absolute best! If you’re looking to have your party up and moving the entire night, he’s your guy. He will listen to exactly what you want and transform it into something greater. I can’t say enough great things.
