    I could not recommend DJ Mark Maskell more! If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. From our first zoom he was extremely professional and obviously loves his job and wants to make the day special for each couple. He turned our reception into the most fun dance party better than we imagined. He provides cocktail hour playlists, the most beautiful lighting and dance floor lighting to set the mood for the venue. Everyone had a blast, thanks to his amazing DJing with his incredible playlists and his ability to read the room. He even took pictures of our first dance, parents dances and electric dance floor moments that were so fun to see the next day! DJ Maskell is an all-around fantastic person to work with. We can’t recommend him enough! If you want someone who genuinely cares about making your wedding or event unforgettable, DJ Maskell is the the perfect fit! I would hire him again and again!!

    Mark Maskell was absolutely incredible. Even though we had an all-inclusive venue, he was my one non-negotiable outside vendor from the very beginning. As someone who has been to a million weddings and genuinely loves music and going out, I hate cheesy wedding music and forced line dancing. Mark was the only DJ whose bio openly said that if you are looking for that vibe, he is not the DJ for you. That honesty alone sold me. From the start, Mark went far above and beyond what was included in our contract. He spent countless hours helping us curate our wedding timeline, reviewing my very Type A spreadsheets, and offering thoughtful guidance. He honestly felt more like a second wedding planner than just a DJ during the planning process. And the lights. The lighting setup and light show were unreal and completely elevated the entire experience. Mark truly curates the music and the atmosphere to you as a couple, not just a generic wedding crowd. On top of all that, he is just a genuinely wonderful human. Easy to connect with, great dark humor, ADHD energy that matched ours perfectly. He is someone I would happily hang out with on a random Tuesday. Our dance floor vibes were immaculate, and we were the only wedding I have ever attended that did not have a single technical issue on the DJ’s end. Truly flawless execution. 10/10 would recommend to literally anyone who wants their wedding to feel intentional, fun, and actually cool.

    DJ Maskell was amazing! Super easy to chat with, and we loved his energy. He read the room perfectly while still keeping our music preferences in mind. The lighting he set up was incredible and really elevated the entire vibe. As one guest put it, “YOUR DJ WAS COOKIN' ALL NIGHT!” He created such a fun, warm atmosphere that the dance floor was never empty. You can tell he has a real passion for weddings and a deep knowledge of the entire process—it showed in how smoothly he worked with us and all of the other vendors. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better to get the party started!

    DJ Maskell was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, he was so organized, detail-oriented, and passionate about his work. He totally understood the vibe we wanted and knew exactly how to read the room. Every transition and song choice was spot-on. His setup and equipment were next-level and honestly made it feel like we were escaping reality for the night. He was so easy to work with, and we fully trusted his recommendations (he did not disappoint)! Our guests are still talking about how amazing the music was. We’d 1000% recommend DJ Maskell to anyone and can’t wait to book him again for future events!
