WE LOVED having our DJ Christian at our wedding!!! He had such a fun energy, really went above and beyond with the set up - he literally ran around trying to make sure everything was perfect on our very hot, humid, a mix of rain and shine wedding day! He even went out to dance with our grandma which was so lovely! We highly recommend Exemplar Sound and Christian for your celebration :) We just want to throw a party and have him DJ again!

He did such a great job playing the song requests we had on the guitar, and he even learned a few that was very important for us to be played! We got SO many compliments from the guests of the wedding on how well he preformed- including family members that are singers and performers themselves! Then for the reception, he brought the PARTY as the DJ. He was able to really capture the vibe of what we were looking for as well as what the guests wanted to hear. Prior to the wedding, he was very attentive to what we were looking for in terms of song request and do not play lists. He also provided a very large song library of suggestions, as well as songs he knows how to play via Spotify- this made our lives SO much easier and was such a great resource! We also rented uplighting and cold fireworks for our wedding though Philip, which really elevated the party atmosphere.
