Kim (and Rod),
I would just like to let you know how impressed I was with my first consultation visit with you yesterday! I was blown away with how friendly you and Rod were. You answered all of my questions and more! I am so grateful that I came across your company because I am confident that you guys are going to make my wedding reception rock! Thank you so much for all of your help! We are so excited to work with Fletcher!! Looking forward to working with Music Box!! ~Kim and Rich~May 30, 2009~Penna's Sterling

Dear Rod & the Music Box Productions Group,
We wanted to give much thanks for the amazing job that you did with our wedding. We knew from our first meeting that you were the right company to go with for our wedding. We knew that our guests would have a good time, but we never expected the number of people to tell us over and over again what a great DJ company we had! Rod made it so much fun for us and all of our guests-it was a blast and a night that we will remember for the rest of our lives!-I'm sure Rod will remember Nick chasing him around the room with frosting in his hand too! As I'm sure you hear over and over again, please let us thank you one more time for making our wedding the absolute best! We would recommend you hands down to anyone!
--Nick and Melissa Fecht, October 27, 2007, The Banquet Center at MacRay Harbor

Fletcher,
We just wanted to say thanks for a great night. Not only did we have fun but every guest did too. We have been getting phone calls for the last week from guest who said you were one of the best DJ's they had ever had. Once again thanks for a great night and for keeping the party going the whole night. Thanks Fletcher!
Jennifer & Joe Langdorf, January 5, 2008, Mac N Rays


Even till this day, I receive compliments about how awesome the DJ was at our wedding. Rod, I cannot thank you enough for your DJ excellence that you displayed at our wedding. Rod, you truly were the lifeblood/pulse of our wedding reception.
IN ROD WE TRUST!!!
Dana & John Staniszewski, December 29, 2007, Greek Assumption Center


Good morning Rod (and Kim),
Thank you so much for turning our wedding reception into a FANTASTIC party! You and your team did a WONDERFUL job of managing the music for a very diverse crowd!
We had four very different groups of people at our wedding - the "mature" crowd, the Indian crowd, the alternative crowd and the young, hip hop crowd. Yet you somehow managed to seamlessly navigate through the musical selections of each group and kept the dance floor packed for most of the evening!
I personally received many compliments regarding your services. Matt and I would definitely want you to DJ any event we throw in the future. We will certainly recommend you to anyone seeking DJ services.
Best wishes to both of you and once again, thank you for making our dreams of an AWESOME wedding reception come true!
Taara & Matt Donley, December 15, 2007, Troy Marriott

We chose Music Box because the Videos seemed to show a good quality of service and the price was good.  MBP went above the normal DJ service.  You guys acted as friends and not service providers.  They even made sure we had enough to eat and brought us refreshments without asking-it wasn’t even their job, but they took care of us.
Mackenzie & Carl Morlock, September 9, 2007, Garden Park

We chose Music Box because of a reference from Andrea, who happens to work there. We were very impressed with everything.   One of our favorite memories was Eric helping Jimmy’s brother put his spare tire back on his truck after someone tried to steal it.   It was a very eventful night!  Eric helped to create wonderful memories at our reception.  Eric and Mike did a wonderful job.  They really connected with everyone, especially Eric.  We could not have asked for a better reception.  All of the guests said they really enjoyed the music and had a blast!!  Thank you so very much!!
Jenny & Jimmy Starnes, August 25, 2007, Barrister House

Dante really was top-notch. There were many compliments covering everything from his presentation to the music selection to his guest interaction. We chose Music Box because Kimberly did a great job selling the company and providing great knowledge/assistance in the initial meeting. Incredible professionalism with no sales pressure.Our favorite memory was the fantastic gimmick/incentive to get folks on the dance floor and then be able to keep them there. The incentive was good, but the staying power reinforced it. Dante and Jeff kept the dance floor packed the whole time. It helped that they seemed involved versus just doing a job. We are grateful!
Cara & Todd Mercer, August 25, 2007, The Inn at St. John’s


We chose Music Box because they were recommended by others, priced right, and friendly service. Our favorite memory was the Anniversary dance. They asked what advice they could give us, it was a memorable moment. We never worried over the DJ services. It was one thing off of our worry list. Rod and Kim set our minds at ease, even when we had some minor last minute changes to make. Thank you for all of the helpful advice and for allowing us to enjoy our night without worry. Thank you.
Heather & Matt Murphy, August 17, 2007, Fore Lakes Golf Club


The main reason we chose Music Box over other DJ services because we liked the fact that 2 DJ’s would be coming, that there was back up equipment, and the initial presentation by Kim was excellent! Our favorite memory was the first song that anyone could dance to. Tony and Jeff were able to get every couple (200 people) on the dance floor to dance to the first slow song. Anything we needed was taken care of by them. They played all the songs we wanted to hear, and we were very selective about our music. We picked our entire set list for the entire night and they put it together fantastically! I’m a very picky person, and they exceeded my expectations! I would recommend them to anyone! They truly made our wedding the best one ever! Thanks for everything!
Michelle & Nicholas Fortuna, August 4, 2007, The Mirage

We chose Music Box because we were impressed with the professionalism and organization. We felt at ease that the events of the evening would be carried out as we asked them to be. However, I also knew that Fletcher would be creative and add his own experience to the night. I don’t have one specific memory but I do remember stepping back and thinking –Wow everyone is dancing and really having a great time. Fletcher & Craig interested and involved in the reception. Tom and I really want to thank Fletcher and Craig. You both did an amazing job! I would highly recommend you and Music Box to any Bride/Groom. So many of our guests have commented they never danced and had so much fun at a wedding as they did at our wedding. You both made the night flow smoothly and exceeded our expectations. Thank you for helping to make our ceremony and reception so wonderful!
Amy & Tom Wenker, August 4, 2007, Oakhurst Golf and Country Club


We booked Music Box because Rod and his staff were the most professional production co. that we met with prior to our wedding. I felt confident that they would do a great job. Our favorite memory was Rod and Aaron getting our guests pumped up and dancing. We all really had fun dancing. I loved the part when they played some techno, our guests really loved it too! Thanks Rod for coordinating the day and makings sure that everything went smoothly. You did an awesome job!
Stephanie & Atay Tanulku, July 21, 2007, Pine Knob Mansion


The main reason we chose Music Box was personality! I spoke with several companies, but the staff at Music Box was great and so easy to deal with!! Sherman was amazing!!! Our favorite memory was the last song, we requested our choice and the DJ’s played it and both got involved with us and our families!!! It was a blast!!! Sherman and Aaron were both able to play for the assortment of people dancing. Although I prefer Hip-Hop/Rap, the DJ’s were able to determine what our guests liked and kept them on the dance floor all night!!! They made our wedding perfect!! Thank you all for an amazing experience!! Music Box Rocks!!
Michelle & Peter Paulus IV, July 13, 2007, The Roostertail


The main reason we chose Music Box was other DJ services lacked the enthusiasm that Music Box Productions staff had. Plus they seemed to have a set format for the reception, while Music Box was more flexible. Music Box was dedicated from the moment we met to making our reception a night to remember. Our favorite memory was that Music Box encouraged everyone to dance right away! The dance floor was packed the entire night. There were people on the dance floor that we didn’t even know danced! Sherman and Kim were awesome! We had more compliments on the DJ’s than any other vendor. Everyone had a great time dancing! It has been a month since the wedding and people are still calling to tell us how great our reception was! Thank you for everything!
Erin & Justin Terrien, June 30, 2007, Mirage


The main reason we chose Music Box over other DJ services was a family member used Music Box and I was impressed at initial meeting with services and DJ’s. Our favorite memory was Sherman played a song at dinner for my Grandma. She sat at her table with a grin singing and dancing along. It made our night to see her so happy! Words cannot describe how pleased we are. We have gotten so many compliments on the music and Sherman. One of my friends wants to book with Music Box and have Sherman and she isn’t even engaged yet. The music selection was great and kept us smiling all night. Sherman was so attentive too, that people thought he was family! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience, we will be singing your praises for a long time!
Mary & Jamie Thomas, June 29, 2007, San Marino Club


The main reason we chose Music Box over other Djs was “when I first started calling around, Kim spent half an hour on the phone with me, and explained what to look for. It was really a selling point to us because when I spoke with her on the phone I felt she was giving me advice as a friend, not as a salesperson. We absolutely loved the music selection at our wedding. The two things that meant the most to us was the food and the music, both far exceeded our expectations. We would and will definitely recommend Music Box to anyone. Fletcher was great at watching and noticing what worked and did not work on the dance floor. He also did a great job of watching Nelson and I and making sure we were not rushed.”
Adrianne & Nelson DeSousa, June 23, 2007, Penna’s of Sterling


The main reason we chose Music Box over other DJ services “was the personal service and the fact that you understood our style as a couple. We liked your experience & music knowledge too”. Our favorite memory “The old school music was awesome!!! Jumping around in my wedding dress during “Jump Around” was awesome! Loved your professionalism, would definitely work with you again & recommend you!
Thank You Kim & Rod!”
Audra & Joshua Kovalchuk, June 22, 2007, Rivercrest


Dear Rod & Staff! What a great job you did on the occasion of our daughter, Melissa’s, wedding. Everyone had a wonderful time & thoroughly enjoyed the music. You did an amazing job of keeping everything rolling smoothly and before we knew it the evening was over! Thanks so much for the excellent Job. I’m sure everyone there would be happy to recommend your services. We all hated to see the evening end.
Great Time, Thanks much, Jim & Jean Doyle
Melissa & Jake Estenson, June 16, 2007, Lochmoor Country Club


The main reason we chose Music Box over other DJ services was the energy Sherman brought to the table. We saw him at a previous wedding and he was great! We were so happy with our DJ’s. They were so attentive and guided us through each step of the night. They got everyone dancing and just made the night so much fun. Sherman is DJ’ing my brothers wedding, and we can’t wait!
Glory & Don Fekete, June 8, 2007, Orlando’s


Rod,
Thank you so much for being a part of our special day. It was an amazing, unforgettable night. The party was better than we had ever hoped and we you to thank for that! Everyone keeps telling us the music was perfect and the proof of that was when no one wanted to leave! Thank you for making it a perfect night, it was so wonderful working with you! Thank you to you and the rest of the staff, especially Kim. Everyone was so wonderful to work with and you all will be highly recommended.
Erin & Craig Wentzell, May 26, 2007, Glenn Oaks


The main reason we chose Music Box over other DJ services was we heard DJ Craig at a wedding two years ago. He was very professional, attentive, and had great rapport with the bride and groom and their guests. We knew he would be a key ingredient in the entertainment success of the wedding. The entire evening was fantastic. Everyone enjoyed dancing and having fun late into the night. Our bridal party dance was especially memorable. DJ Craig helped us select a song fitting with the theme and mood of our special day.
Amy & Dan Rose, May 11, 2007, Golden Hawk


The main reason that we chose Music Box: We had family and friends who had used them and we loved the music selection for Indian music. Our favorite memory: When the DJ played “Don’t Stop Believing” by Journey as we were leaving, we had just asked for it to be played at some point – it was perfect! Dante and Mike were perfect. The mix of Indian and American music was a great balance. The songs played made it perfect for everyone to have fun.
Sharmili & Stratton Edwards, May 5, 2007, Wabeek Country Club


We’ve had a chance to attend some other weddings since our own. After each wedding we’ve gone to, Jim and I have reflected on how thankful we are that we went with Music Box and Sherman! As we see our friend’s weddings, we are reminded how professional, fun, smooth, and carefree our experience was! Thank you for having a part in our special day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Your company & Sherman was a wonderful and are out shining other companies!
Rebecca & Jimmy Arnold, January 6, 2007, San Marino Club


Rod was great! We were out of town, but Rod was so easy to work with - great at pre-planning, extremely flexible, and worked in all our requests! In fact there were a few things we requested that I had forgot about by the time the wedding came - Rod got to them all and with great style! I actually didn’t meet Rod until the day of the wedding -what a pleasure to work with! By far one of the best vendors. I’d recommend him to everyone.
Katie & Adam Madigan, August 5, 2006, Polo Fields


Dante & Fletcher did a great job for our wedding. We had a wonderful time. The dance floor was always packed with happy guests. We got great feedback from our guests. They really enjoyed the music selection and mix of Arabic/American songs. Dante & Fletcher were very professional and friendly. We would highly recommend them to our friends. Thank You.
Sherine & Dan Awad, September 9, 2006, Masonic Temple


Sherman & Aaron were awesome! They played the songs we requested along with a few that we didn’t pick, but still fit well with the night. We received so many great comments about Sherman’s performance! Sherman went above and beyond his duties and made sure we were always happy! Sherman was perfect! Thanks so much for making our night perfect!
Melissa and Anthony Laginess, September 30, 2006, Crystal Gardens


We knew from the day we first met that Music Box would be our choice. The helpfulness and thoroughness of the company and its DJ’s made planning a wedding much easier and worry free. Eric and Fletcher were great with us, family members, and all the other guests at the wedding. The music selections were a huge hit and everyone had an amazing time dancing to the music, or just mingling and humming or toe tapping along with it. Thank you everyone for making a wonderful night even more amazing.
Erin & Jimmy Tack, October 7, 2006, Gino’s Surf


Rod and the Music Box Staff,
WOW! What a wedding! Thanks to the awesome DJs and Video staff. We rocked the night out & some awesome footage was taped. We really appreciate everything your company did for us. Our wedding will never be forgotten. You all did a great job and we thank you so much.

Kimberly & Fletcher,
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your unparalleled service and all of your help making my wedding great. I feel that having the ability to provide superior service is a gift you truly have and it is reflected in you and your employees. Please extend my thanks to Andrea as well for being so helpful taking all of my phone calls. She is awesome! Fletcher, thank you so much for a great night. I wish you much more success & will keep your business cards handy for referrals.
Emily and Mark Socia, July 15, 2006, Blossom Heath


We are so pleased with Sherman and Music Box Productions. We had so many guests come up to us and ask about the company, everyone enjoyed the music selection, DJ’s and the volume. Your staff is extremely friendly and always there for questions or concerns. We will sure use Music Box for future functions. Thank you for a memorable wedding!

Dear Rod, Aaron & Kim-
Thank you so much f0r the unbelievable service we received from Music Box Productions. Kim, you made us feel comfortable from the minute we met- we are very thankful for that. Rod & Aaron, you guys were amazing. Everyone has been raving about the music & your presentation; you guys helped make our night perfect. I will never forget seeing my (maternal) Grandma & (paternal) Grandpa shaking their booties to “Atomic Dog.” You have our sincere thanks and heartfelt recommendation.

Loved Dante! He was super helpful and friendly right from the get go. Dante kept us updated and informed the whole night. In fact, I think some mistook him for Dave’s best man! Thanks for an awesome evening-one we’ll remember for the rest of our day!

Music Box did an awesome job from our initial call to them continuing through the planning process. They quickly responded to any emails or phone calls I made. The evening of our wedding, our DJs were fabulous. Craig made sure everything went smoothly, made sure my husband and I were happy with how everything was going, he even got us a round of drinks! Thanks for helping to make our day go off without a glitch!
Kristen and Joe Pytel, June 16, 2006 Andiamo Italia


Tony was very gracious with my parents and some of their last minute cultural requests. Tony was extremely professional and accommodated superbly to the changes requested. He pronounced many difficult names eloquently and had a great attitude throughout. My guests of all ages were dancing and the wedding party had a blast at the end of the night. He obviously loves what he does and is very talented and experienced. Thanks so Much!
Jane and Andrew Steiger, May 20, 2006, Mac and Ray’s


All of our guest talked about how great the music was. They also commented on how nice the DJ was. We had SO much fun dancing, there were a few things that we asked to be changed, and the DJs were so accommodating and kind in honoring our requests. We have already recommended Music Box to friends who are getting married. Thank you for being so wonderful to work with. From planning to our big day we had no worries with your company in charge!
Janel and Joe Lentine, May 7, 2005, Sterling Inn


Jen & Chuck set the tone for their guest by letting go and partying all night long on the dance floor. But I also have to give huge props to their DJs, Music Box Productions, who were the best DJs I’ve EVER heard at a wedding. Sherman was a fabulous emcee and I’m so sorry that I don’t remember the name of the person with him..But seriously.. if you want to have a real party.. these guys are the best. The actually did live mixing, which unfortunately a lot of wedding DJs don’t do, and they were soooo good, soooo flawless with their mixing that they were able to keep an impromptu limbo line going for at least 20 minutes! I’ve heard a lot of DJs..and I don’t think I’ve met one yet that can hold a candle to these guys. Fabulous choice, Jen & Chuck!

Eric was an awesome D.J. and we could not have gotten through the night without his help, support, and advice. He was always honest with us and supported our decisions. I really liked it how he frequently visited my husband and I to make sure everything was to our liking! Eric kept our party going and entertained our guests all throughout the night. We received so many comments after the wedding about how packed the dance floor was and how well our D.J. did. Our cousin was so impressed she is thinking of having you do her wedding next year. Anthony and I had a wonderful time at our wedding, part of that was due to the services you provided. Please let us know if there is anything we can do in the future to help.

Having never planned or been part of a wedding before, I was nervous about making the best choices. The first time we walked into the Music Box office, my husband and I were pleased with the help we received. The second time we went in to meet Craig, we knew we had the right DJ for the job. Craig did his best to make sure we knew exactly what was going on and what songs we could use that suited us. He was very friendly and outgoing and made both my husband and I feel incredibly comfortable and at ease. The day of the wedding I was pleased to see both Craig and Kim setting a great tone for our reception. They did an amazing job and I highly recommend them. I promise you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for an unforgettable wedding!

We cannot begin to tell you how wonderful our experience was. Rod put us at ease at our planning meeting. He helped us pick songs and get our timeline straight. The day of, Rod was there to greet our limo, he got the entire party under control, he directed us to when and where we should be. He had everything under control. We didn’t have to think at all, we just enjoyed our day. The music was great, wonderful selection and perfect volume. All night long and even weeks after, our guests are still telling us what a fabulous D.J. we had. You made our day perfect, Thank You!

Eric and Dante hands down were the best DJs for our wedding. We will also go as far as to say we have never seen a better pair. As we showed up for cocktail hour, I turned around and there were Eric and Dante. Their execution of the MC duties was flawless. Most importantly you could see the excitement and passion they have for their job. We saw Eric’s video and knew he was the DJ for us! We knew Eric would be able to get everyone to the dance floor. Eric and his co-DJ Dante went above my expectations! It seemed like he was always two steps away. Every time I had a request he was there--amazing! I could write a short story about how Eric is the best DJ for a fun exciting wedding; just trust me, if you want fun and exiting book Eric! This is the type of DJ you remember for the rest of your life!

Tony was absolutely fabulous. We had so many compliments on music selection and everyone loved the request cards. He kept the crowd going and the dance floor was never empty. He and Michael checked with us about the order of the reception and wanted to make sure we were happy. We loved the way they worked the crowd, too. They were a hit and we didn’t have to worry about anything, they took care of us and played the perfect blend of music to appeal to all guests young and old. We would definitely recommend to friends!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! For making my wedding day perfect. I have never had such a good time. With so many things to worry about, I appreciated the worry-free entertainment. Many of my quests asked for your name for their own parties. You found the song I wanted to hear on short notice and it meant so much to Joe and I. The ambiance was great for setting up a party mood. Thank you again for doing everything you said you would and more!
Sarah and Joseph Hanna, June 5, 2004, Petrozello’s


Dante was wonderful! He kept our entire wedding reception organized and flowing!! I had no idea of all the timing that had to be done to keep our night going!! Dante was in contact with the photographer, hall coordinator, our videographer and us all evening! We had no doubts in booking your company based on so many other weddings we’ve been to! We are happy to pass your name along with an excellent review. We thank you for helping to make our wedding “perfect”.
Kari and Steve Suchota, April 17, 2004, Partridge Creek


Fantastic job! We had many compliments from our wedding guests on how great the DJs were. One thing I would really like to point out is that Music Box DJs don’t just play music. They really serve as entertainers, coordinators and emcees. They really kept everything moving all night, and kept guests informed on what was going on. Music Box was our first and only choice for DJ. Once again, you have lived up your reputation! Thanks for making our wedding rock! Anna and Jason Yelencich, November 28, 2003

Rod:
We wanted to personally thank you and the entire Music Box staff for helping make our wedding day better than we could have ever expected. From the first day we met you, our fears of finding a great DJ were over. The friendly service that you and the entire staff exhibited needs to be commended. No matter how many times we had questions, someone was always available to provide a response. The efforts Music Box took to make sure all the details were in place long before the wedding was very impressive. Rarely do you find a company committed to customer service the way you are at Music Box. We were very impressed that Music Box took the initiative to call us and set up the pre-wedding consultation and also how you kept us informed on the status of the video. Not once did we ever have to call you and try to figure out where things stood. The communication from Music Box is exceptional.
