Cliff and Gary made our wedding day a day we will NEVER forget! From our ceremony, to our reception with having Cliff as our officiant, to Gary as our MC/DJ we couldnt of asked for two better guys to handle our needs. The photobooth was a hit too! Thanks Cliff for pushing us to have that at our reception.

Cliff was AMAZING!!! We were so pleased with how we asked him to find some traditional Jewish songs, and we went above and beyond to find them and recommend options to us. He also found some of our favorite non-mainstream songs and played them for us. When someone requested a song on our no-play list, he made sure to check with us before doing anything. Cliff even took some great photos for us. Wow, what a great DJ!!! We highly recommend him. Alexandra and Aaron Chusid

If you want to get married and you want to get through your reception without making a fool of yourself, then you NEED Cliff Housego. Incredibly attentive, Cliff has been doing this for years and knows exactly what to do in order to give you the reception of your dreams. Talented MC and dance instructor, Cliff will make all your entrances and introductions sound amazing and take even the most left-footed of dancers and turn them into regular Fred Astaires. Save yourself loads of stress and let Cliff make your reception one for the books.

Cliff was great! He played great music, read the crowd really well, and handled the "obnoxious" aunt with humor so even my mother was happy. We took dance lessons with him and had a great time. It was something even my husband looked forward too! He was well worth the money because everyone had a great time and he kept the flow of activities moving at a good pace, while we all had fun.

We were able to see our DJ at a friend's wedding prior to our own, and decided to use the same DJ. He was very fun, energetic, lively, and made the wedding exciting. We also met with the owner of the company who came out to our location and he was very organized. He put the timeline together for us and had many ideas of song choices. The big day came out wonderfully, and we were very happy with the DJ choice that me and my husband made. They are also very reasonably priced. Many DJ's can be over $1,000 dollars, but The Wedding Music DJ's cost was much less. Great value for the price. They have their own equipment, set up/tear down, and were very easy to work with. We would recommend The Wedding Music DJ!!

Cliff was a fabulous MC for our wedding and I recommend him highly to everyone. He was very friendly, entertaining, enthusiastic and professional. Cliff kept the reception organized, exciting and moving along flawlessly. He did a wonderful job choosing the music that would please everyone and the dance floor was always packed. He was exceptional in every way and his valuable contribution made our wedding day a huge success.

We asked Cliff to recommend most of the music for the ceremony and reception, and were 100% pleased. Also, he took charge throughout the reception, making sure things happened on time (bouquet & garter toss, cake cutting, etc.) without rushing anyone. He has a great sense of humor which added a unique feeling to the event, and felt personalized to us. Many of our guests have shared that ours was the best wedding they've attended in a long time, mainly due to "the MC". We look forward to renewing our vows with Cliff at 10 years!

Cliff played a major part in keeping the flow of our reception fun, exciting, and smooth. We picked a few of our songs and also supplied him a list of songs requested by our guests, but the rest we left up to him and he did an excellent job reading the crowd... everyone was dancing and having a great time! His communication was great and actually went to look for us to tell us what would be happening next (example: he would find us and tell us he'd be announcing the father-daughter dance or bouquet toss or cake cutting in 15 min). He's also very adaptable. Just a few days before our wedding, we found out there was going to be a Cinco de Mayo festival right next to our reception location. So we had to compete with the Mariachi bands and loud music, but Cliff actually went over and talked to someone in charge and they agreed to give us 15 min of quiet so our toasts could be heard... talk about a DJ going above and beyond! Everything turned out perfectly even with the last minute changes of switching things around and eventually, our music was louder than the festival's and people were actually dancing to our music on the other side of the fence that blocked us off from the festival! I highly recommend Cliff and his DJs for any event. He will ensure everyone has a great time!

We chose Cliff Housego as our DJ for our wedding due to his fun personality and flexibility. He also has a great library of music, both oldies and new songs. A friend of mine had Cliff as the DJ at her wedding and he had everyone up on the floor and just having fun, so We met with Cliff and discussed our venue and what we were looking for as far as music goes and what our expectations were. He actually listened to us and came back with a list of songs he felt would work with our stye. He was right on the money - he was very entertaining and kept everyone dancing. It was a great time had by all. I would highly recommend him for a wedding or any other event were you want music and people dancing.

Cliff is one of those exceptional individuals who is not only a true professional, but took a vested interest in the success of our wedding. Before we contracted The Wedding Music DJ's, I spoke with several other vendors, only to be told, "We don't play that type of music" or "We like to play to a younger crowd." I am a business professional who provides the highest level of client satisfaction to my clients; I expected no less from the DJ I chose for my wedding.The first thing that Cliff explained to me was that nearly anyone can play music; what I needed to seek was a great "master of ceremonies" to make sure everything ran smoothly. Truer words were never spoken! Cliff met with us on, at least, seven occasions to go over, in great detail, how we wanted the ceremony and the reception to unfold and to discuss the music to be played for each segment of the evening.Half of the meetings we had were by his request, because he wanted to ensure that all went perfectly well. My husband and I spent months choosing nearly every piece of music played at the wedding. There were many selections from the 50's, 60's, 80's as well as traditional Jewish and Cuban music that had a lot of meaning to us and our guests. Cliff had the ability to meld all of the different music types into a smooth and sensible order that kept everyone dancing throughout the evening.Aside from the normal wedding venue, we had hired two additional forms of entertainment because we wanted our wedding to be fun and meaningful. Cliff worked with our entertainers to ensure that all of the transitions throughout the evening were seamless and within the timeline we created.Cliff has a very unique charm about him and was able to "move" all of our guests onto the dance floor which really enveloped us with love and happiness from our family and friends. When we viewed the wedding videos months later, it was apparent to us that Cliff had played a major role in making the wedding reception the success that it was. Nine months later, people are still talking about the fun and the music they had enjoyed that evening.One would be remiss to not, at least, consider the Wedding Music DJ's for their special event.

I hired Cliff, The Wedding Music DJ, for 2 events; a company Christmas party and a Celebration of Life. At both events, he was outstanding in providing ideas to promote fun for the guests and excellent music as well. He also did a very profession video presentation for the Celebration of Life.I would absolutly use him again.

It didn't take us very long to find Cliff, we met with him and clicked right away. He did an amazing job MC ing the reception and the DJ that he had with him that day did a really good job mixing up the songs for everyone. Our dance floor was packed all night which was very important to us. And he was decent in price for the quality of his service. In addition, he felt comfortable at Bella Victorian Vinyard because he has MC ed there before and I think that that was a big help. Overall, I would definatly recomend this company for a DJ.

While the DJ played terrific music throughout the evening, he lacked in MC abilities. Very few people heard him announce different things (i.e. father-daughter dance, cake cutting, etc.) It was a little disappointing, but we were pleased that he at least kept to our requests to avoid certain music, keep the volume at a level so that people could still have a conversation without screaming, and played a wide variety of music to reflect the variety of age groups in our guests.

With Cliff Housego's help we had the most amazing, stress free weddind day I could imagine. Cliff kept the cermony moving exciting and organized. He was very friendly to the guests and went above and beyond to ensure the ceremony was flawless. I fully reccomend him to any couples preparing to be married.

I really liked this DJ. He was very professional, with a lot of years of experience. He provided us with music lists to choose from, that was a bit overwhelming, so we basically told him to make those choices for us. We were not disappointed. He knew what to play and when. We only had some issues with the schedule of events, but we came to an agreement during our final appointment. He listens well to what his clients want. And he did a great job during the event.
