Music on the Move

We had a mixed to negative experience with them. Dara was pretty great. She was pretty responsive and communicative throughout the entire wedding process. We’re so grateful she was also on top of everything in terms of “day of” coordination. However, in terms of music on the day of the wedding, it all collapsed. That was all Doug. The music was way off. What we had issues with was that Doug almost completely disregarded our agreed upon playlists. Before we signed the contract in hiring them we made sure they were ok with us creating playlists and planning every single song throughout. On the day of the wedding, he abandoned all that. I was livid. The dinner playlist was completely abandoned. I think he played one song from it — but outside just before the reception for some reason. The pre-ceremony playlist and the cocktail playlists were chopped up with songs missing or replaced and then a select few played on loop. And the reception music. A complete mess. Every - single - song - was directly laid out for him and he still disregarded it. Wrong versions or remixes were played. Songs that had no business being played were played. We spent hours creating the playlists because we had a specific vision in mind and had taken into account our various guests’ tastes and our own personal tastes and he pretty much ruined it. There’s no excuse from him for that. At bare minimum he got the first dance songs right and the last two as well. Yes, we made the best of it and still had fun but it’s still highly unprofessional for him to have done that. That’s NOT what we agreed to and paid for. I would caution anyone against trusting Doug

Could not be happier. Great DJ, great company. They were fantastic at our class reunion. Played all the music we requested with a few additional fun features thrown in. AWESOME!

Dara was very great to work with unfortunately the owner Doug (not to be confused with her husband Doug) was not. After 6 years of being together we were finally planning our big day. We found music on the move and immediately had a great connection with Dara and everything was going so smooth. Then COVID happened. Our dream wedding was ruined. We worked with every vendor and every vendor worked with us. Except music on the move. The Owner Doug had no empathy for the situation all of us were in. He only cares about the money. It's unfortunate that Dara doesn't own this company because we know things would of been different and we would of been customers and referrals for life. I left 2 stars, 5 for Dara and 0 for the owner. Would not recommend if you can't read the future that a global pandemic is coming.

I wish I could leave 2 reviews, one for Dara and one for Doug. Dara was amazing at planning and coordinating our rehearsal and day of. She was always available to answer my questions and guide me. Both Doug and Dara were at our rehearsal, setting up, scouting the venue and guiding our process. The day of our wedding, during my (the bride's) vows, there was loud and continuous audio feedback. It did not happen during the groom's or the officiant's parts, and they were mic'd, while I was not. It happened during all of my speaking parts, and through the duration. Luckily we were outside as I believe it would have been worse if we were indoors, but our guests visibly jumped as did my husband. When we asked later, people were mostly nice but made it clear that it was startling and loud and I wasn't able to be heard. During my wedding vows. Luckily our ceremony was unplugged and our amazing videographer was wise and pre-recorded us reading our vows. It was very upsetting to have such an important part of our ceremony ruined, when we were paying a premium for their "quality equipment". During our reception, Doug played the wrong song for our Father-Daughter dance. Luckily, Dara jumped in near the beginning and put the correct song on. We chose to play games such as the "Newlywed Game" on the dance floor, and Doug had several awkward pauses, repeated a question, and seemed to generally be distracted. Neither Doug nor Dara commented on the horrible feedback, and I did not want to confront them on my wedding day. I wish they had at least acknowledged the blunder that interrupted my wedding ceremony. Overall they were overpriced and I wish we had gone with someone else for our big day.
