Testimonials

"One comment repeated by many guests was that it was the first reception they'd attended that the music volume didn't drown out everything else.  You kept it at an ideal level which is to your credit."

"You kept up a great pace and mix, and you managed to please everyone's particular desires."

 

 

With so many years of experience and great personal referrals, MarkTheDJ was the perfect fit for my Italian wedding!

He made sure everything ran smoothly for the entire event: Mark provided an extra mic and amp for the singer at the ceremony (on a whim!); he worked with the hotel coordinator to make sure the flow and timing of the reception was on point; he always made sure I was ready and aware of what was to come next through the entire reception. MarkTheDJ was half the price of the DJ services featured in The Knot and KC Weddings and he came with all around better customer service, better song selections and MUCH better MC skills than the rest.

We were really lucky to have found someone to make sure our perfect day was really PERFECT!  Thank you Mark!

Mark is literally the Best DJ Ever. I hope to get to use his services again, becuase I absolutely will. He is affordable, completely friendly and professional. He was what made my wedding the Fun event that it was. I never got back to him about my very opinioned list of songs I like, yet we talked a couple of times on the phone and he literally nailed it. People were dancing the whole night. He pumped things up at the right times and slowed them down appropriately. He was wonderful to work with and kept me on time and on track. His song selections were great. I Highly recommend Mark the DJ.

I first met Mark a few months ago when one of my clients hired him for their wedding reception. The first impression that I got was that he was very professional, organized, and experienced.

When the event took place months later, he upheld all of the characteristics that I first noticed about him. He kept the party going throughout the night, adjusting the play list accordingly. Our client decided to extend their party for an extra hour and he was very flexible and proactive on continuing the dance music to ensure his client and guests were having a great time.

Mark's set-up is unique to all that I have seen within the Kansas City area. He covers all cords and has accent lighting to enhance his equipment. The lighting can be adjusted to the colors of the event and blends in the DJ and dance floor area with the rest of the decor.

I highly recommend Mark to any bride looking for a professional DJ!

Mark is that rarest of breeds - a veteran wedding DJ with the passion and enthusiasm of someone new to the world of weddings! He has the skill, presence and musical knowledge to keep ANY dance floor full all night. Your wedding will be the one that all your friends will talk about when they compare the great nights celebrating a couple's big day. There are some very good DJs despite all the amateurs out there. He's a true find, and definitely one of the good guys!

If any of you are ever in need of a DJ to work an event you're having, I highly recommend Mark Taylor.  He worked my brother's wedding reception last weekend, and he did a FANTASTIC job!  He and his assistant, Merrill, stepped in at the last second and saved the day for us!  Thanks Mark and Merrill!

The street dance was a great success.  The estimate is a crowd of between 300-500 who enjoyed MarkTheDJ who did a fantastic job.

Dear Mark,

We wanted to let you know how much fun the wedding reception was and you had a great deal to do with that.  You were more than accommodating as to what music we wanted played, and you were very flexible when we asked for certain tunes.  Thank you for a great evening!

Mark,

We wanted to thank you so much for the great time you provided at our party.  Everything just kept on rockin and rollin and the guests had a terrific time.  We got more compliments on your talents that we can count.  We will be sure and recommend you anytime someone wants a quality DJ!

Dear Mr. Taylor:

I want to convey my personal appreciation for your exemplary performance during our birthday celebration.  It was the best performance of any DJ in my three years at the 9th District.  Your ability to choose the "right" music to ensure all in attendance kept dancing and enjoying themselves was superb.  You are an invaluable asset to your profession.  Thanks again for a job well done.

Mark,

Hey, I just found your website.  I just wanted to say that I remember you from the "Woody's" days.  You were the best DJ!  I don't know if you remember me, but I am the girl who always requested Prince.  You used to call me "Prince Girl" and you always played my friends' requests.  I am glad to see that you are still in the DJ business and I will be sure to recommend you now that I have your phone number and e-mail address.  Are you available for next New Year's Eve?  Keep on partying like it's 1999!

Your biggest fan,

Trisha

Dear Mark,

Please forgive the lapse between the time you played at Michelle's reception and receipt of our thank you via this email.  Time just got past me.  We realized today that we hadn't acknowledged your excellent service or let you know how greatly everyone appreciated the music and commentary you provided.

One comment repeated by many guests was that it was the first reception they'd attended that the music volume didn't drown out everything else.  You kept it at an ideal level which is to your credit.

You kept up a great pace and mix, and you managed to please everyone's particular desires.

We will heartily recommend you to friends contemplating use of DJ services, and will invite you to any future affairs we must put on ourselves.  Thanks again, Mark.

Sincerely,

Joel and Sherry Ahlbrandt

Mark,

You were the most delightful person to work with at my son's wedding reception.  The catering manager at the Marriott hotel called me for your number so that she could use you in the future.  We were very impressed with your professionalism, your personality and most of all, your eagerness to please us all.  We just wanted another chance to say, "thank you" for making our party so enjoyable!

Thanks again,

Mark,

I just wanted to thank you again for doing such a wonderful job!  You went out of your way for both my 10 year reunion and my wedding to make things special.  We received many compliments on how smoothly everything went and John and I know that you deserve the credit.  Please send us a business card if you ever change companies so we will be able to find you if we need a good DJ!

Thanks again,

Willa
