More Love Letters!
2010

"Kevin was AMAZING!!!!! Everyone commented on how totally professional and fabulous he was. He played the PERFECT tunes for the crowd, executed Family Feud as if it was the norm, bonded with Andrew's son Max and just did an exceptional job---really. I cannot tell you how many people have shared how impressed they were with him--only second to the food...oh and maybe the stunning bride ;) Many, many thanks and please pass along my sincere thanks to Kevin for doing such a great job. Not sure if he has spoken with you, but I did not leave the dance floor the entire night!! That's how good he was!"
-Valerie Berdan, Ondine, December 31, 2010

"Thank you very much! Our wedding reception was wonderful and ran smoothly, largely due to Chris! It was pouring rain and I was stressing out, as our timeline was completely pushed back. Chris spoke with the photographer and helped adjust the evening to make sure that I had everything I wanted. He is a fantastic DJ, I don't think the dance floor was ever empty. Everyone I spoke to told me what a great time they were having and how impressed they were with our DJ. He helped make our reception a great party and very memorable. My younger sister is getting married this fall, and I am recommending Chris to her! Thank you for everything!"
-Cami Bangasser, Odessey Restaurant in Granada Hills, December 18, 2010

"I had never hired a DJ prior to our wedding reception on 9/24/10, and to make things even more interesting, ours was very non-traditional occasion in that we had already had a small family destination wedding and a honeymoon a month prior to this event. My first exposure to D&D was with Sue Doyle, a consummate professional who understood immediately what we were trying to achieve and recommended Kevin for his vast experience and repertoire. My husband and I had a very specific picture in our minds of the music we wanted played, and our definition of success had more to do with the overall mood/atmosphere of the event than how many people Kevin got out on the dance floor. We were very discriminating, and to be frank, there were more genres of music that we didn’t want played than those that we did. I in particular was curious to see how Kevin was going to bring all of the pieces together into one harmonious experience. He instilled confidence from the outset by arriving early, dressing impeccably, knowing when to be in the foreground and when to be in the background, and always choosing classy/sometimes nostalgic music from start to finish that ALL of our guests enjoyed. Don’t hesitate to hire Denon & Doyle for your next event- peace of mind and your own satisfaction are definitely worth it."
-Mignon Mozley, Hacienda de las Flores, September 24, 2010

"Just a quick note to let you know that Brian Holmes did a GREAT job at our wedding. Everything was smooth and he took good care of us the entire night. Our friends and family had a blast on the dance floor and people especially liked the shoe game, the way he did introductions, and the first dance with everybody standing around us. I would recommend Brian and Denon and Doyle to anybody."
-Brian and Erin Corbett, Shadelands Art Center, December 18, 2010

"Wow!!! Brian.... Abe did such a great job! We are so happy. Everyone loved the music and the evening and it was a blast. People actually commented on the music and said it was the best ever! People danced and sang all night. Abe was warm and helpful and such a pro. We could not be more pleased. You made our experience so delightful. What a team you have over there. We would so highly reccommend you and Denon & Doyle. Really... words are not enough to express our joy and thrill."
-Jenni & Michael Thayer, Postino's Restaurant, December 18, 2010

"Everything was excellent and everyone had fun. Mark did a wonderful job. We'd love to adopt him."
-Elle Ryan, Preservation Park, December 4, 2010

"Thanks! Kevin and Dale both did a wonderful job on Sunday. All of my guests could not stop raving about Kevin's performance. They also could not get enough of the photobooth!"
-Daniel Chew, Casa Real, November 7, 2010

"The wedding was absolutely awesome! I've emailed Mark with our thanks but just to re-iterate - Mark did a great job, great music, great lighting, great setup... overall it was by far the most worry-free experience we've had with this wedding planning and we're truly grateful to have gone with Denon & Doyle!!!"
-Gene Romm, Martinelli Event Center, November 7, 2010

"Thanks for the link! Sean, our DJ, was awesome. He was so kind, great with our crowd, played exactly everything we hoped he would play. He found us at certain periods of the night and made sure we were doing well and he handed over a copy of the songs he played. Loved Sean. The photo booth was just as great. Lots of people had so much fun with it. So glad I was thrown in there a few times too! "
-Kate Cecich, Bently Reserve, November 6, 2010

"Chris Mowery DJ'd our wedding last night, and he was amazing. He juggled my annoying music requests with all my drunk friends wanting to sing karaoke, and kept everyone on the dance floor. More importantly, he was a voice of reason and made the night much less stressful for my husband and myself. He was kind of a DJ/day-of wedding coordinator/psychiatrist all rolled into one. The night was perfect, due in large part to everything Chris did."
-Christina Yasi, Heather Farms Lakeside Room, October 30, 2010

"You guys were great. Larry got there early, set up, was super friendly and courteous and did a great job of responding to our tiny reception which was small to begin with and experience a 25% drop off in folks who had RSVP'd. Larry was awesome! Please let him know how much we appreciated his services, he was genuinely a sincere, kind person and played all the music we wanted. The Bollywood hits really got the crowd out on the floor. Also, the lighting was awesome! Really transformed the room! We'll recommend Larry and Denon & Doyle to everyone who needs such services in the future."
-Elizabeth Borghi, Berkeley City Club, October 23, 2010

"Everything went so well. Binky, as always, was fantastic and a huge help going above and beyond helping me with the slideshow and everything."
Brittani Waldman, Dream a Little Dream Events, San Francisco City Hall, October 23, 2010

"Donald arrived early, set-up quickly and was ready to get the party started when the time came. He was so committed to helping my couple's guests enjoy themselves that he actually got on the dance floor to lead one of the group "cha cha" song steps. It was a pleasure working with him."
-Nicol Irvin, Little Blue Box Weddings, V. Sattui Winery, October 16, 2010

"Solomon was awesome! We could not have asked for a better dj. Thank u so much! My mom left a message also about him. We want to make sure u guys know how great he was. We will definitely be using u guys again!"
-Melanie Gram, Novato Residence, October 16, 2010

"I really can’t say enough about Chris. He was AWESOME! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ or a better experience with him. He was great. He was the first person to meet us at the reception, and helped us out the whole night, without being in our faces. I honestly felt, and still feel, we couldn’t have gotten a better DJ anywhere in the world for our night. He treated all the guests great, helped out where needed, and of course, played rockin music all night long. If he didn’t tell you, he even helped me purchase SF Giants tickets to World Series Game 6 over the internet with his laptop. I don’t know if that was in his contract or not, but it was sweet!!!!! Definitely a story to remember about our wedding day. Again, I can’t say enough about how much we liked, appreciated, and enjoyed having Chris at our wedding. He helped us relax when we first got to the reception, kept everyone dancing and having a great time, and helped the B&G get to where they needed to be every step of the night. He was nothing short of fantastic."
-Todd DeVries, Marines' Memorial, October 15, 2010

"The evening was lovely, and Kevin did an amazing job with the flow of the evening and especially with providing great music for the dancing. He is very good at what he does. Please tell him thank you!"
-Elizabeth Bainbridge, 2 the Nine's Events, Wente Vineyards, October 10, 2010

"Thank you very much! The wedding and reception were both amazing!!! Jason did a great job, everyone I've talked to had a fantastic time and to my surprise there were more people dancing than I could have imagined. Morgan and I are both extremely happy with the way the night turned out and we will definitely be recommending Denon & Doyle to anyone looking for a quality, first class company."
-Brian Justice, Lafayette Park Hotel & Spa, October 9, 2010

"Thanks for checking in. We had an amazing wedding and really could not be happier with Mark's work. He kept our reception moving at a perfect pace and played amazing music throughout the entire night. Everyone was out on the dance floor, even our grandparents! We really could not have asked for a better DJ, and words cannot describe how happy we are that Mark was a part of our wedding. Thank you! We will surely be recommending Mark and Denon and Doyle to all of our friends and family!"
-Emily Kirkland, Menlo Circus Club, October 9, 2010

"We could not have been happier with Chad as our DJ. He nailed it! He took all our song picks and incorporated them while putting in some crowd pleasing twists that rocked the dance floor. Whenever he had a question he would discreetly ask us(without bugging us) and carry on. Halfway through the night, I found myself thinking "is there another event I could host where Chad can Dj?" "
-Andrea Torrey, University Club of San Francisco, October 9, 2010

"As a wedding planner, this was one of the best DJ experiences I have ever had. Super quick and easy in having one contact and getting you all the information the week before the wedding vs. endless emails for weeks and weeks. Love your entire process.

With regards to Sean. He could not have been more professional yet easy going, attentive to the crowd - especially the bride and groom, and wonderful to work with. He made DJ'ing look easy from set up to breakdown. Madison, my 3 year old daughter, who was the flowergirl for the wedding, was checking out Sean's dj moves. I would recommend Denon and Doyle without hesitation to my future clients and friends. And even higher recommendations to request Sean. Thank you so much for making the event a huge success from a professional point of view and from a personal point of view as I was also a guest and was able to enjoy the wedding."
-Margaret Poza, Planner for Tomara and Joshua Roniger, October 9, 2010

"Chris and I have nothing but compliments for Kevin!! He did such a great job, he listened to our wants and needs for the type of reception and ceremony we wanted to have. Everyone commented on the great selection of music and wanted to know who the DJ company was. We have nothing but high regard for Denon & Doyle. From the first phone call to the week even day before the wedding you guys held our hands and were the easiest vendor to work with hands-down. If we could get married again we would use you guys and for that fact any other event we would ever need you for. Thank you for making our special day absolutely spectacular and unforgettable!!"
-Lizzy Wanken, Casa De La Vista, October 9, 2010

"I wanted to let you know that craig and I were both delighted with Chris. He was phenomenal and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ. He was very professional, organized and helped to make things go very smoothly. Everyone let us know that they had a wonderful time and one of our younger guests (maybe around 14) let us know that she had a great time because we "actually played good music". Chris was really spot on for the night and made our reception very memorable. Chris made us feel at ease and we knew that we could relax because he had everything under control. Thank you again for all the hard work and for making our reception great!"
-Christine Nakahara, Joy Luck Palace Restaurant, October 2, 2010

"We had a wonderful wedding. Mark did a fantastic job of combining the Italian /European music with American. Everyone was super impressed. He was very personable and moved the night along flawlessly"
-Dianne Tschumper, Napa Valley Country Club, October 2, 2010

"I can not explain how wonderful our wedding day flowed. It was perfect from being to end. We have a BIG thanks for Kevin! Not only did he surprise us with fun games that everyone enjoyed but kept the dance floor full (with the dancers of the group at least) He did such a great job that our best man tried to get him to stay and play longer just for them : ) Kevin was wonderful- couldn't even imagine having someone else or another company! You guys have treated us so wonderful from day one. I am so happy, and now know why you were recommended to us."
-Larae Stine, Dublin Ranch Golf Club, October 1, 2010

"Chris was very professional and exceeded our expectations. We wanted the wedding to move along with no long stalls and he executed perfectly. All of our guest loved the games Chris suggested and couldn't stop raving about Chris. Our friends that are already married were kicking themselves for not selecting a DJ from Denon & Doyle. I bet you get some business out of this."
-John Praffrath, Marine's Memorial, September 26, 2010

"The wedding was fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!! Everyone loved everything that Patrick and Dale did to make the day that much more special. I already knew how wonderful the company is and now my family and Heather and Nathan's friends know first hand! I hope it brings you guys more business. I truly appreciate everything as I was trying to coordinate, be a guest, and a member of the bridal party I had my hands full. Knowing Patrick was there I knew everything would be taken care of. Thanks so much to all of you at D&D! :) Hopefully next time I need you guys it's for my wedding!"
Heather Klassen, Klassy Events, Diablo Country Club, September 26, 2010

"We were very impressed with Chris. He kept our wedding flowing smoothly and made sure we didn't have to think one bit! Everyone had a great time and I will recommend you guys to all my newly engaged friends!"
-Tina Duncan, Postino Restaurant, September 25, 2010

"Liz and I continue to hear nothing but compliments on our awesome DJ. Elena had an amazing ability to play just the right song at just the right time. And the mix CD she made for us was such a nice touch. Thank you for everything; we could not be happier."
-Liz and Michelle Homer-Smith, Mountain Terrace, September 25, 2010

"We are more than thrilled with both the music and Donald at the wedding. Not only was the dance floor packed the whole night, but even the people in chairs were singing along and enjoying the tunes. My mom said that she must have been asked a couple dozen times "who picked this music? it's great!". Please thank Donald for us because even though I gave some ideas and specifics, he really pulled out all the right songs at the right times."
-Dayna Santin, Jack London Lodge, September 25, 2010

"Thanks so much for your email. We had a wonderful wedding and a fantastic reception. Kevin did a wonderful job--the music was perfect for the reception, the dance floor was packed throughout the night, and everyone went away having had a great time. We couldn't have been happier."
-Mark Huberty, Garden Court Hotel, September 25, 2010

"Yes, everything was perfect. Larry did a fabulous job of keeping pacing and playing all our songs. They flowed beautifully during the ceremony and especially the reception. Please give him a big Thank You from Scott and I. Music was very important to us and I will definitely be recommending Denon and Doyle to friends. Thanks again!"
-Julie Straw, Buena Vista Winery, September 25, 2010

"Everything you guys and Abe did was amazing! Abe was so helpful, especially on the spot when our timeline changed because our wedding party's limo got a flat tire. His demeanor with all the guests was perfect. The music and coordination by Abe was perfect and so helpful. He checked in with us when needed, and I think I danced almost every song! I am so glad we hired your company! Everything went so well and we had so many guests tell us it was the best wedding they had ever gone to! "
-Tara Turner, 25 Degrees Brix, September 25, 2010

"Binky was awesome! He handled some family matters perfectly to ensure the reception was all that we wanted. A friend of mine is getting married this week and wants to know the playlist from our wedding because it was so PERFECT! Thanks for everything!"
-Jennifer Jamieson, Vintage 1870, September 18, 2010

"Tim did an absolutely fantastic job! Franck and I could not have been happier! Tim had people of all ages packing the dance floor from the start. We have been getting very positive feedback from so many people and from all ages regarding Tim the excellent DJ! It is not an easy job to get such a diverse group dancing -- we not only had people of all ages and backgrounds but we also had people who flew in from France, China, UK and all over the USA. Tim made the entire group happy and everyone had a wonderful time.

Please relay our thanks and HUGE smiles to him!

MERCI BEAUCOUP to Tim and the rest of the Denon & Doyle team for making our reception so memorable! :)"
-Monica & Franck Chastagnol, Sharon Heights Country Club, September 18, 2010

"Everything was awesome!! I loved every minute of it and Kevin was great, there was a lot of dancing, amazing!!!"
-Kimberly Quesada, Maggiano's Little Italy, September 18, 2010

"Mark and Taylor were great! They were at the restaurant early and were set up in no time. Mark was very nice and was on top of the schedule, checking with us and our coordinator and wedding party on the timing of various events. He stayed calm and pleasant through all the hectic-ness. He made sure he had the details of the various events and then worked independently on the side. If we needed him, he was right there, if we didn't he blended in to the background, all while playing exactly what we wanted and what kept the dance floor full. He needed very little instruction but was welcome to any and all suggestions we had for him.

He had a great sense of humor and knew exactly what type of songs we liked. He kept the dance floor full all night, except for the two songs I requested just for fun (Hot Stepper and Back Street Boys). He faded those songs out perfectly after I got a good taste of them. He also did a perfect job on our first dance by cutting the song short since I didn't want to dance for too long in front of everyone. We didn't have to worry about him all night because he knew exactly what he was doing. Taylor made sure everyone at the photobooth was having fun. Together, they are a great team! Both are very nice and fun people. These are the people you want at a party.

We've been to many weddings but Mark is the best DJ we've ever seen at any wedding. After talking to Mark and seeing how a good DJ is suppose to work, we started critiqueing other DJ's at other weddings. We notice how other DJ's play music just to play it and they don't notice what is going on at the dance floor. The dance floor would be empty but they would just keep playing the same songs. You really have to have some good experience to be able to DJ on the fly and be able to adapt to anything. Mark did exactly that and played the exact type of songs we and the dancers wanted. You guys really are the best DJ's we've seen. Great people too! Everyone at the office is also so nice and welcoming.

We are very relieved that the wedding is over but we kind of wished we had more time to enjoy Mark's D-Jaying that night and also spend more time talking/joking with him and Taylor. We will definitely keep you in mind for any future events that call for a DJ. We already recommended you to another friend for his holiday party!"
-Kathleen Wong, Legendary Palace Restaurant, September 18, 2010

"Dear Chris and the Team at Denon & Doyle: Thank you so much for all you did to make our wedding so special! Denon & Doyle was the first vendor we found as we planned our wedding! I still remember attending the evening mixer and realizing that we’d found the right DJ/MC! From the beginning, we appreciated the professionalism and helpfulness of the team at Denon & Doyle. Most notably, we appreciated the help and enthusiasm of Chris. The DJ/MC of a wedding is an integral part of the celebration. Two weeks before our wedding, we attended a wedding as guests and found that Chris was the DJ! It was a great chance to see his style and we knew we were in good hands! When it was our turn to plan, he was flexible with his schedule and spent a lot of time with my family working out our timeline and making helpful suggestions. The games were a complete success and made our wedding so unique! During our reception Chris helped make us feel comfortable and our bridal party enjoyed his enthusiasm. We created a full timeline with several song requests and Chris helped to capture the best of them. The Italian traditions that we wanted to incorporate were welcomed and Chris helped to incorporate them in an elegant and fun way. I intend to follow up my letter with reviews on various websites including: weddingwire.com and yelp. Once I get my photos, I will coordinate a big thank you to my vendors and post it on Facebook. Please feel free to use any of the reviews as testimonials on your website! We’d be honored! Thank you again for everything! You helped make our dreams a reality and the friendly and helpful way that the Denon & Doyle team, especially Chris, took care of us was superb!"
-Victoria Bologna, Concord Hilton, September 18, 2010

MERCI BEAUCOUP to Tim and the rest of the Denon & Doyle team for making our reception so memorable! :)"
-Monica & Franck Chastagnol, Sharon Heights Country Club, September 18, 2010

"We just got back from our honeymoon and all of our guests we're impressed with our wedding. Mark did a fantastic job; from the music selection, listening to our requests and just directing the overall wedding. We were very pleased and he made the wedding so enjoyable for all of us.

We plan on recommending him to any of our future friends that are getting married."
-Megan & Ken Pirozzoli, Lafayette Park Hotel & Spa, September 18, 2010

"I just wanted to thank you for all that you did for Stephanie and Nick. Everything was wonderful. I know I had a great time, all of my friends have said they had a great time and the music was wonderful. We will gladly recommend you to anyone who needs a good DJ. Thank you again for helping to make our daughters wedding day so special."
Debbie Zanotto, Mother of the Bride, Willow Heights Mansion, September 17, 2010

"It was AMAZING and the photo booth was definitely the hit of the party. There were lines to take photos. Your attendent was awesome and you're company was perfect to deal with. THANK you for completing this special day and adding the perfect touch."
-Kathleen Goulet, Bridges Golf Club, September 17, 2010

"The wedding was perfect! The music was amazing… it was the talk of the night. We had our whole group jumping up and down on the dance floor… we couldn’t have had it go more perfectly… thank you so much! Give [Tim] a hug for us and tell him he nailed it! You guys are the best!!!!"
-Pamela Simpson, Healdsburg Vineyard, September 11, 2010

"We had such a great time! Larry was awesome! Couldn't recommend him enough!"
-Tanya & Chad, Story Winery, September 11, 2010

"We had a blast at the wedding! Kevin was phenomenal. I'm still getting compliments from my guests about the dj. He played some really fun games/ice breakers that got the crowd into it. I loved the newleywed game and the musical chairs! It seriously got my non dancers on the dance floor! It was such a kick! Kevin kept everything flowing and played such a great variety of music. He was so nice and so good at his job and I am very glad we chose him. Thank you for everything! :). Ps it was everything I hoped it would be - fun and unforgettable!"
-Shauna Cox, Scott's Gardens, September 11, 2010

"I already sent a note to Chris directly but you too, deserve to know what a great job Chris did. Just like you said at the showcase, your dj's fill in where there is a need. Chris was right there to help out the other vendors, he got us drinks plus he set up the speakers and audio perfectly and thoughtfully in both the ceremony site and the reception site. He was seamless, professional, personable and we loved having him there. He needed no instruction as to what to do or where to do it and we knew we could leave him to do his business and rely on him to do his part.

Thank you to all of you for participating in Sara and Steves wedding. BTW, I am the mother of the bride. I forwarded this email to Sara and Steve also."
-Sandi Lutsko, Private Residence, September 11, 2010

...and more from the Bride
"OH MY GOSH! Chris was seriously THE BEST! From the second we booked him at the wedding preview, we knew he was going to be awesome; not only that, each time I was in contact with him, I got more and more excited because he managed to outdo himself everytime. When we met with him, I felt like him and I were totally on the same page in terms of music, and I felt so at ease knowing he was going to be the one kind of running-the-show at the wedding. When we couldn't think of songs to be introduced to, I put it in Chris's hands, and he rocked it - myself and Steve and the entire wedding party haven't stopped talking about perfect and fun his song choices were! And even all the adults loved the music! He did an excellent job of gaging the audience, I have actually had two adults who are planning other events ask me how we found you guys...so maybe you have a couple more clients! Anyway, please pass this message along to Chris, he was fantastic! Thank you for all you have done for us - the wedding was a perfect sucess!"

"Both Patrick and I would like to thank the Denon & Doyle staff for being total rockstars. Jason was the best DJ you could ask for. He was professional, friendly and was excellent at reading what the crowd wanted to dance too. Although the dance floor was small it was always packed thanks to him. The belle of the ball was the photo booth. Aside from Jason, the photo booth was probably the single best thing we spent money on for our wedding. Dare I even say it eclipsed our open bar? People really loved it and kept coming back for more. All night there was a line to take pictures in the booth.

Thank you for helping make our night better than we could have ever imagined it could be."
Athena Eng, Mountain Terrace, September 11, 2010

"We had a great time at our wedding! Everything was perfect and Sean played all the songs that we wanted to hear and more! We will definitely recommend Denon&Doyle in the future!"
-Dusty Martin, Elliston Vineyards, September 11, 2010

"Our wedding was awesome and we have nothing but good things to say about William. He played everything we asked him to and read the energy of the crowd very well. We got multiple compliments from our guests about how great William was. Honestly this was the first time I have been to a wedding and heard nothing but good things about the DJ.

Thanks for helping make our event so special!! And please tell William the same for us."
-Adam & Soph, Vine Hill House, September 5, 2010

"We cannot begin to express to you how grateful we are to Brian for making our wedding so magical. I have never been to a wedding where I was so impressed with the DJ. The second we got out of our limo, Brian had a drink in our hand. Almost everyone at the wedding has commented specifically on how amazing Brian was, and I have already had two brides ask for his contact information. I felt like I was in such good hands that I was able to completely relax and just enjoy the night...Brian did EVERYTHING. He kept our drinks flowing all night, spaced out activities perfectly, and was able to make one of the speeches given hilarious by adding the soundtrack to the Titanic. I will never forget how above and beyond Brian went for every moment of our wedding. On that note, I really want to send him a (big) tip and am wondering where I can send a check. Thank you a million times over to your company, and specifically to Brian for being the best DJ I have ever met!"
-Anne Harman, Servino Restaurant, September 5, 2010

"The wedding went great! Tim was a lot of fun and we were all on the dance floor until they kicked us out at midnight!"
-Erika & Jordan, Solage Calistoga, September 5, 2010

"The wedding was awesome, and Kevin did an amazing job. I cant remember the name of the guy who was assisting/photobooth, but he did a great job as well. Linz and I couldn't be happier with the way things turned out. We've gotten tons of feedback from our guests, and it was all extremely positive. Kevin read the crowd so well, and was great about filling music requests. The photobooth was a huge hit, and we are so glad we opted to have it for the wedding. Please extend a heartfelt thank you to Kevin and the whole Denon & Doyle team for making it a enjoyable and very memorable event."
-Jeremy Gillespie, Martinelli Event Center, September 5, 2010

"I want to let you know that Martin did a FABULOUS job at our wedding! Everyone at the reception had such a great time and it flowed so well! He is clearly a fantastic professional!! All the preparation we did certainly paid off and I believe he played every song we asked for! So thank you!!"
-Erin Schubert, Garden Court Hotel, September 5, 2010

"Chris was AMAZING! Seriously, he was the best and exceeded all expectations."
-Marisa Borruso, San Francisco City Club, September 4, 2010

"Tyler and I cant say thank you enough to Brian Holmes and Denon & Doyle. Brian was so professional, helpful, engaging and absolutely helped to make our wedding day amazing. He helped the day go so smoothly and did such a great job at getting all the guests up and dancing. We will recommend Brian and Denon & Doyle to our our family and friends."
-Maren Quigley, Poppy Ridge Golf Course, September 4, 2010

"Brian, all went great and we loved Solomon. He is full of positive energy and enthusiasm. Thank you!"
-Steve Findley, Calistoga Ranch, September 4, 2010

"We are back now, and still living on the high from that night! Your team was AMAZING and everyone can't stop talking about what a great time they had, especially with the photo booth and the dance floor! Didn't get a break all night!

Thanks again, we are fans!!"
-Michelle Knowland, Peninsula Golf & Country Club, September 3, 2010

"We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful job that Chris and Abe did for our wedding! Chris was absolutely amazing, not only as a DJ and Emcee, but also as a person who was there to get us whatever we needed at any given time...even when we didn't think we needed something. Chris was just in the right places at the right times and it just speaks to his experience in the industry. We have nothing but good words for your company and the employees and have received a lot of compliments from our guests and wedding party about how friendly and professional both Chris and Abe were. The pictures turned out great and everything was just perfect. Chris definitely has a unique ability to adjust things on the fly and just knows when certain things should happen to make the most impact and getting the crowd invovled. While Michele and I didn't get a whole lot of dance time (because of pictures and other stuff) the pictures we saw of our guests showed us a lot and we couldn't be happier with the outcome.

Thank you again Brian and please extend this email to both Chris and Abe. We got extremely lucky to have them both on board for our night and we definitely couldn't have had the "dream" wedding we've always wanted without their assistance. Thanks again!!"
-Tobias "Toby" Curl, Casa Real, August 29, 2010

"Please pass on my thanks to Jason for his hard work last night. It was a tad chaotic in the beginning of the day (before he arrived) but we got back on track and he kept everyone dancing. I heard nothing but good things about him all night."
-Jessica Goldblatt, Dreams on a Dime, Piedmont Hall Community Center, August 28, 2010

"Everything went so much better then we could have imagined!!!! Tim was so awesome and he kept the party going all night. I don't think there was ever a break in dancing or empty space on the dance floor, which is exactly what we wanted!!! Normally there are some people who end up leaving before the wedding is over, but not ours. When Tim played the farewell song, everyone was on the dance floor! (we even got lucky because he played two more songs even after the final song) He was so great and everyone keeps talking about how fun the music was! I am so glad we decided to use Denon and Doyle!! You are so easy to work with and made it so simple. Tim Rocks!!!"
-Ashley Natons, Crow Canyon Country Club, August 28, 2010

"Brian thank you for all of your help with this...Niall was awesome. The event popped off great and everyone had fun, even the old folks were dancing so that always fun and a good laugh."
-Gareth Gibson, Claremont Resort & Spa, August 28, 2010

"Our wedding was perfect and Kevin was great! He was very accommodating and played the music we requested! Everyone had a great time!! - PS- The Bride and Groom doll game was a HUGE hit!!! People still talk about it!"
-Julie Richardson, Blackhawk Country Club, August 28, 2010

"I want to tell you what a wonderful time we had. The sounds and Video setup was excellent, and worked perfect throughout the night. Donald and Dale were very Gracious, professional, and accomodating. They went the extra mile to make sure our event was all that we could imagine. They will tell you, it was a busy night, and everthing went smooth. We went with D&D because you are a will organized business who has been entertaining people for over 20 years. This event was just another notch on your belt to prove it. Thanks again. If you need us as a reference, I am more than happy to tell anyone about our satisfaction with your work."
-Roger Bird, Greek Orthodox Church, August 28, 2010

"May I please extend to you my most sincere and honest suggestion about Brian: Hold onto him! A party is only as fun as its DJ, I believe, and not ONE person left that evening with anything negative to say about Brian, the music, or the party. It was rather cold and windy, so the guests griped about that, but that was the only thing that Brian couldn't have managed. He was always making sure I had everything I needed of him, offered to even help serve cupcakes! He made sure I was ... well-served from the bartender too, bringing me a Corona before I'd even made it to the reception! There really was nothing that had to be done that evening that Brian didn't have part in. He's hilarious too... And the game he played with Tony and I and our shoes- we LOVED this too- we're watching it on the wedding video right now, actually... no joke, it's great.

Brian was fantastic, you all were great to communicate with and I will forever remember how much fun we all had on the dance floor!!! We're watching the video saying "Wow, look at all the people dancing- even my Aunt Sandy!" Which is a true testament to Brian's work!

Please give him a big hug from me and I will pass on a pic and official thank you to him as soon as I get some pictures from our photographer."
-Amy Hadrich, Hacienda De Las Flores, August 27, 2010

"The DJ was a hit for the party, so much so that we had one of our partners literally “dancing on the table”. I’ll try and send you a picture, that’s a testimonial you can use! To my knowledge he was sober at the time of the dance!

Kevin was excellent, after dinner he got the entire party dancing. Good mix of slow music, some “oldies” and the new stuff. The evening started out a little hectic for him with his vehicle, but the Solage folks helped him out, he maintained his cool, and came back and rocked the house. In fact had he not told me about the car problem, I wouldn’t have known, so he was right up front with us, and there really wasn’t an issue.

I do think we were having a little too much fun, Solage at first said we would need to “turn it down” at 10:00 pm, but after the table dancing, they asked me to “shut it down” at 10:00pm.

Overall we were very pleased with the service and would recommend your company and Kevin to our friends!"
-Jeff Schmeck, Solage Calistoga, August 26, 2010

"We wanted to write you an email to let you know that Abe Naldjian did a phenomenal job as our wedding DJ. He was knowledgable, supportive, and accomodating throughout the entire process. He provided wonderful suggestions as far as music selection and event timing.

Still, a month after my wedding, we have several people commenting on the wonderful job he did. The atmosphere that he set was absolutely perfect, classy, and still fun. There is nothing about his performance, skills, and attention to detail that do not deserve the highest amount of commendation.

Please pass our thanks and gratitude to Abe for doing such a wonderful job. He really is an asset to your already superb company. Thank you for everything -- We can say, with 100% honesty, that Abe was the reason our wedding reception turned out just the way we had hoped."
-Kristina & Anthony, Humphreys, August 21, 2010

"The party was fantastic and Mark was the perfect DJ for our event. He was extremely professional, organized and played the exact music we wanted. Everyone danced all night long and we couldn’t be happier. I will highly recommend D&D & Mark H. to my network.

Our daughter is getting married in 2011 so I will be in touch if we decide to hold the wedding local!"
-Carolyn Sanderson, Private Residence, August 21, 2010

"Chris was absolutely amazing. He was certainly the best wedding planning decision we made. Extremely helpful and informative. He thought about everything and was prepared before it happened. This guy is phenomenal!"
-Brian Addington, Meadow Club, August 21, 2010

"The wedding went great and we heard some great comments about Chad. He was professional but also very fun. He got people up and out of their chairs with the kissing game (what a great idea!!) and the centerpiece giveaway. Some folks who we never thought would participate were dancing around the table, waiving towels, and generally making a spectacle of themselves (in a good way). Just excellent. The wedding party intro and music also provided so much energy to the event. Definitely memorable! Chad also kept checking in with us and making sure we were ok and we thought that was just great customer service.

Thank you so much as well Brian. Speaking with you the week of the wedding calmed some of our nerves and helped us get organized. It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the small details of planning a wedding and we were relieved to find you guys were so on top of things. Took the pressure off of us. Also, your suggestions about the Kissing Game and the centerpiece game really helped add to the energy and flow of the evening.

Hope you don't mind but I copied Sue Doyle on this email. I wanted to make sure you and Chad were recognized for your first class service and attention to detail. Will be definitely recommending Denon & Doyle to our friends."
-Kevin & Lauren, Hotel Sofitel, August 21, 2010

"Our wedding at the Fairmont was amazing!!! Sean was the perfect DJ. He played all the songs we wanted, and didn't play the ones we disliked. He was a great MC. Kimberly and I have both been to weddings where the DJ is too chatty and gets very annoying. Sean could not have been better. He spoke only when necessary and always said the right things. His music kept the dance floor packed all night long and he maintained a perfect flow of events throughout the night. We wanted to thank you and your company from providing us with Sean and for making our wedding so much fun and memorable. We will definitely recommend Denon & Doyle to everyone searching for the right DJ."
-Kimberly Pardini, Fairmont Hotel, August 21, 2010

"Everything was truly perfect, dont think it could have gone any smoother. Chris was awesome and such a big help working with Heather and I to keep the night on track. Compliments to Chris and Denon & Doyle, first class all the way!!!"
-Dan Transue, Hacienda De Las Flores, August 15, 2010

"We just got back from Hawaii or I would have written sooner, but we wanted to let you know that Kevin did an amazing job at our wedding! Please pass along our gratitude. Kevin's role was so important in keeping the wedding fun, and he didn't make a single wrong move. The pace, atmosphere, and energy he created were perfect; we got a lot of compliments on how much fun our wedding was (in no small part thanks to Kevin). We had a live band for the beginning of the evening and they ran a bit longer than expected, but Kevin was able to roll with it and transitioned seamlessly into his part of the evening. Also, since we had so much going on before the wedding, we really only provided a few song choices, but from those songs Kevin could tell what our tastes were and chose the perfect music throughout the entire event. Oh, and the shoe game was really cute!

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kevin to anyone. Also, you guys have been great throughout this process. This was such a vital part of the wedding, and you managed to make it completely stress-free. I think that's what separates a good wedding vendor from a great one. :) Thank you SO MUCH!"
-Katie Ferrell, Brazilion Room, August 15, 2010

"Chris was absolutely incredible. I cannot even express how comforting it was to know that he was keeping everything running smoothly and that whenever I needed anything I could ask him. People from the venue would come up and ask me questions and I could just say, "umm…I'm not sure. Ask Chris." That was a godsend. :)

Everyone I have talked to as said it was the best wedding/reception they had ever attended. The games were fun, the dancing abundant, and everything just felt as if it effortlessly fell into place (and I know it took a lot of effort to give off that impression). We will always recommend your company and Chris to anyone and will not hesistate to hire you guys again for future events."
-Jay Jordan, Pacific Athletic Club, August 14, 2010

"Everything went so perfect and Alex was great. He kept us on schedule and helped keep things going when the schedule started getting off course. He was a pleasure to work with and I am so pleased with the job Alex did. You guys definitely lived up to your reputation and made my day just perfect. Thank you for all of your help."
-Teresa Thetford, The Lodge at Sonoma, August 14, 2010

"Everything went really well that day with Binky. He definitely knows how to get a party going and keep it going. He was also really great controlling the timing/tempo of the whole event. We are definitely happy with the job he did. I don't really think we have any complaints about the entire day."
-Vinh Bui, Scott's Gardens, August 14, 2010

"DJ Seth was awesome!!! Everything went perfectly and everyone had a great time."
-Chelsea Anderso, Private Residence, August 14, 2010

"The party went great! Max was totally awesome and he helped a whole lot. Everyone enjoyed the photobooth and commented on how cool it was. I wanted to let you guys know how awesomesauce Max was. Max helped out a lot during the party, was very friendly, and made sure that people knew to go and take pics. Totally give him a raise of at least $1,000,000/hour because he was that awesome haha. Thanks again for your A rank service!"
-Robert Bulatao, Private Residence, August 14, 2010

"The wedding was fabulous! We had a great time and are so happy we had Donald as our DJ/MC. He was GREAT! Very professional and provided good energy. Thanks for everything!"
-Ronyelle Banks, Lafayette Park Hotel & Spa, August 14, 2010

"Mother of the Groom here. Your photo booth was PERFECT! It was a highlight of the reception. Very interesting to see the different personalities emerge and very fun keepsakes for the bride and groom! LOVE seeing the photos on line too! "
-Linda Whalen, Bridges Golf Club, August 14, 2010

"Chris was amazing! After our ceremony, he showed up at our pictures with glasses of wine for us and was directing the tray-passing servers to us as well. He did such a great job of keeping us comfortable and letting us know the timeline of things without getting us stressed. He read our and our guests' music tastes with perfection and our guests absolutely loved the game he did with us. We've been getting calls from family and friends for the last couple of weeks with rave reviews about our wedding. When we set out to plan this wedding, our #1 goal was for our guests to feel that this was the most fun wedding they've ever been to, and with Chris' help, it certainly worked!"
-Kari Stone, Vine Hill House, August 7, 2010

"We were most certainly THRILLEdD with Jon!! I wrote Sue about some other matters earlier this week, and mentioned it then, otherwise, I would have contacted you, we were so happy!

I'll get something in the mail to Jon later this week. The end of the day got hectic for me, and Jon was packed up and on the to the next job before I made my way back.

Thanks for checking in, and as always for taking good care of us."
-Helen Gettinger, San Jose History Park, August 7, 2010

"Thank you so much for all your assistance and support throughout this process! Kevin was amazing! I never had a doubt because I have attended two other weddings he has worked and he was phenomenal. My fiends and family never left the dance floor. We had such a blast! He is so professional, patient, and has impeccable timing. He really made the reception all that we hoped it to be. I would recommend him to anyone and I hope something comes up in the future in which I could retain his services again. Kevin, yourself, and your company as a whole has been a pleasure to work with. You guys are top notch! Thank you for everything!"
-Erin Janes, Lafayette Park Hotel, August 7, 2010

"Chris was awesome, awesome, awesome! We loved him and so did everyone else. He kept the night moving smoothly. He knew exactly what the crowd responded to and when to play it. He did an amazing job coordinating with the vendors. He had everything under such control that we trusted that he would keep us on schedule and didn't have to think twice about anything. We would hire him back in a heart beat for any future events. We are leaving for our honeymoon in a couple of hours and the one thing left on my list before leaving today is to send him a thank you note with more tip because he really deserves it. We are so glad Chris was our DJ for our wedding!

I will post a message on Yelp because that's what we researched in identifying a dj and found it helpful. Also, one other item Chris did and we really appreciated is he downloaded music we wanted and forgot about and did so on the spot, ie Irish songs for the family. He rocks!

Thanks for checking in and there is absolutely nothing he could improve upon - he was great."
-Janet & John, Blackhawk Country Club, July 31, 2010

"We heard many rave reviews about Sean - he played a good variety of music, he was on top of it and part of the event but in an inconspicuous way and we just all really enjoyed having him there. The sound system worked perfectly, etc. etc. You also did a great job of putting together a mix for dinner - we heard really positive things from family and friends who enjoyed the background music so thank you!

We appreciate all of your help and professionalism. I'll write a 5-star review on yelp."
-Amanda Gutierrez, Private Residence, July 24, 2010

"I am so happy that my husband and I chose Denon & Doyle for our wedding reception and especially that we chose Brian Holmes as our DJ. Brian was amazing! He went way above and beyond and we can't thank him enough. Brian had told us he was our "go-to" man if we needed anything. When Randy and I went to cut our cake, Randy noticed there were no serving plates on the table. Not to worry, Brian was right there helping get the plates from the staff and everything was fine. That's just one example of many that Brian did to help ensure our wedding reception ran smoothly. The music was just the right combinaton and included all of our favorite dance songs. Our guests had so much fun. Thanks again Brian, you are the best! "
- Cathy and Randy, The Mountain Terrace, July 24, 201

"Yes, there is a good buzz, in fact, like a soccer stadium full of vuvuzelas! Denon & Doyle and Niall hit on all cylinders and our three words of fun, memorable and seamless were met with perfection... our special day was improved a million-fold having Niall as our DJ.

Hmm, guess that serves as the compliment for Niall!

Thank you so much, pen and paper version to follow and please feel free to use as a reference anytime."
-Jody Amos, Elliston Vineyards, July 24, 2010

Abe did an OUTSTANDING job of keeping things moving and people moving. There was never a dull moment. Our only complaint is that we will compare the wedding DJ of every wedding we go to to the AMAZING skills of a Denon and Doyle DJ! But, we are willing to live with that.

Thank you again Brian and we will continue to recommend Denon and Doyle to our family and friends."
-Christina Fregosi, Sheraton-Palo Alto, July 17, 2010

"Binky did great. It was a tough crowd to get dancing, b/c they were having so much fun socializing, but the mix was good and I heard our requests played throughout the night. He was also a great MC summoning people to the tables and trying to quiet folks for the toast. All in all, a wonderful contribution to a perfect night. Thank you!"
-Norm Johnson, Mountain Terrace, July 17, 2010

"The wedding was perfect. Everything we hoped it would be! Family and friends completely agree. And, Niall really kept the party going until the very last song. He was perfect for our wedding. We have gotten many compliments about his music choices and how smoothly he ran the night. We sent him a thank you which he should be getting shortly, but we definitely wanted to let you know he was perfect."
-Thomas Aitken, Claremont Resort & Spa, July 17, 2010

"Hey Chris, the wedding was awesome! People absolutely loved the photobooth! I'll yelp it for sure."
-Hanna Benrosh, Casa de la Vista, July 17, 2010

"The party was a huge success!! I couldn't have asked for a better D.J. Donald was fabulous!! "
-Debbie Micell, Camel Barn Museaum, July 17, 2010

"The wedding went fantastic, everyone had a great time. I cannot thank Denon & Doyle and specifically Alex, enough. From the moment I arrived at the venue, Alex was there to make sure every detail was perfect for us and it was all nothing but perfect all night! He was so professional and got both families dancing together! I will recommend Alex specifically and Denon & Doyle to every friend I have that is planning a wedding. Picking a DJ made us nervous at first, but going with Denon & Doyle was the best decision we made! We both cannot thank Denon & Doyle and Alex enough, he is such an incredible asset to your company. Please give him our sincere thank you for making our wedding perfect!"
-Cassidy Griffitts, Sun City Roseville, July 11, 2010

"Mark was awesome!!! Everything went perfect and the booth was a hit!! The scrapbook is hilarious...

Thank you so much again!"
-Amy Greer, Casa Real at Ruby Hill, July 11, 2010

"Thank you so much! Brian was amazing. He surpassed any and all ideas I previously had of what a DJ would be like. He acted as our wing-man for the entire event. For example, early in the evening, even before the dancing started, the temperature in the room was passing uncomfortable on the way to pizza-oven range. Most people didn't notice, but Brian picked up on the pallor of my face and immediately worked with the coordinator to correct the situation. In between courses, Brian discretely came over let me know that the facility engineer's were working on lowering the temperature, handed me an ice cold bottle of water, and encouraged me to hang in there. Brian was on top of everything that evening. He kept the party lively enough for the younger group yet still included the more experienced generation in the festivities. It was the perfect mix. I've heard countless stories about my now brother-in-law's wedding and how it was such an amazing party that the DJ was leaning across the table as if he was actually in a club or at a rave. Nick and I wanted as much of that as we could get (his brother was married right out of college, and we're a little further removed from that age, AKA older. We didn't think we would be "rocking out" as much as they did, but hoped to come close). And Brian gave us that. Don't get me wrong, he never acted inappropriately. But he did make sure that our reception is one of those that other people will think, 'I want to have as awesome of a party as they did'.

I can't thank D&D enough for the exceptional job accomplished. Ya'll will be my only recommendation for DJ's from now on. Thanks again!"
-Kelly Terry Hoskovec, Hyatt - Santa Clara, July 10, 2010

"Donald was fantastic, we heard a lot of compliments about the music and especially about his professionalism and friendliness. It was wonderful to know that the event was in good hands.

Thanks for helping us to create a marvelous reception!"
-Carrie and Elliott, Bancroft Hotel, July 10, 2010

"The wedding was fantastic, and Mark had a large part to do with that. As always, he did a wonderful job reading the crowd during "dancing hour". He was very accommodating with our song list that we created, and the voice over during the father daughter dance was a hit!

This is the second wedding Mark has done for our family and I will always recommend Mark and Denon and Doyle for any party in need of a DJ."
-Kris Donovan, Hakone Gardens, July 9, 2010

"Please let Kevin know he did a wonderful, excellent and most magnificent job! Please have been telling me this was the best fun they had at a wedding. Kevin kept the party going and going. Please just simply loved it.

It went so, so fast and as a bride it seemed like blur but a good blur. Thank you guys, you did a FANTASTIC JOB!"
-Serena Tavassoli, Spinnaker Restaurant, July 4, 2010

"We can't compliment Tim enough on his great job at our wedding! We were very pleased with him, he kept everyone entertained and dancing, played just the right music at the right time, and helped to keep our entire wedding night running smoothly and on time. Thank you so much - we really enjoyed working with Tim and Denon & Doyle!"
-Sara Kessinger, Calistoga Ranch, July 4, 2010

"It was an amazing wedding!! Jesse and I were so impressed with Martin and Jason. Jason did a wonderful job at the ceremony. Everyone said that when "Jessie's Girl" was cued up and we walked away towards the GG Bridge that it looked like something out of a movie! ( and sounded like it too!) Martin was so professional and organized, even when I wasn't so organized! ;-) He rolled with all of the little things that went on, and was a fantastic MC and DJ!

I am going to write rave reviews on Yelp, as well as tell any friends or family having weddings in the bay area to hire Denon & Doyle!

Thank you so much for all of your help and guidance!!"
-Catherine Clobucker, Presidio Officers Club, July 3, 2010

"We had an absolute blast at our wedding, everyone is still talking about it! Brian was fantastic! I couldn't have asked for anything more! Everyone LOVED the "shoe game." I will definitely be recommending you guys to anyone who is looking for a DJ!!!!"
-Julie Willet, Round Hill Country Club, June 26, 2010

"We just wanted to let you know what an incredible job Abe did at our wedding. He played great music that kept everyone dancing until the wedding was over. He also had really clever tactics to get everyone moving. He picked perfect songs without a lot of guidance. We are extremely satisfied with his work. "
-Scott Mauger, Sova Gardens, June 26, 2010

"I actually would really like to speak to Kevin in person, but I trust you will pass this e-mail along to him. That being said, I have to say that his performance was absolutely wonderful!!! He did such a perfect job!! Everything went so smoothly and he played the best music we could have asked for. I know we had a couple random songs we requested, but he seemed to know what would work and what wouldn't with the dancing crowd. I just hope he enjoyed the night because EVERYONE else did!

Brian, I have to say that my uncle who was there (maybe one of the very few "sober" ones dancing) was a longtime professional DJ in Sacramento and he is very critical about DJs. THAT being said, he grabbed me by the shoulders and told me: "This is a GREAT DJ! Where did you find him?" I told him and he stashed D&D in his back pocket.

Now to Kevin... Colleen and I heard the cocktail music during the post-ceremony and it was fabulous! (Lot's of DMB, which we requested). We were announced to a little Queen and he timed out the wedding party and us perfectly! Dinner music was the best,,, just perfect! His quick and relevant announcements were also the best! I hope our wedding coordinator was cool with him. First Dance, Father/Daughter Dance, Mother/Son Dance, Garder/Bouquet Toss... everything was perfect!

Thank you so much Kevin and the D&D staff! All was phenomenal!!!

By the way, we had a couple guests who wanted to know who that DJ was and they will be getting in touch with you guys when they need to!!!

Thanks again Kevin and D&D!"
-Adam Spitz, Adobe Lodge - SCU, June 26, 2010

"The wedding was fantastic -- Mark was great! He really listened to what I wanted (I wanted some electronica/dance music, and he had a CD with some of the mainstream trance on it), and played probably every song that I suggested. I just talked to my maid of honor, Lisa, yesterday, and she was very impressed with the music -- she thought it was very "me" and very cool considering the venue."
-Sarah Jacobson, Bentley Reserve, June 24, 2010

"You are going to laugh... I actually wrote the following on wedding wire prior to us leaving for Bora Bora... We are in Bora Bora right now actually, but I thought I would send this to you...

Review A team that knows what they are doing and just amazing to work with!! Sue, Kevin and Brian are all part of the team that I worked with and they were all just so great!! Sue. .thank you for your flexibility, your responsiveness, and the quality of your team. Brian, thank you for your patience!! Brian worked with us when we were picking music till the last day!! And Kevin... he mentioned to me it was the longest event he ever did... over 14 hours and wow.. .he was awesome!! Flexible, on time, and just the perfect guy for the job!! Great team and highly recommended!

Anyway, Thank you for everything!! You guys were amazing and I would highly recommend you guys for anything... and if I ever need a DJ, I know who to call."
-Dr. Sujith Shetty, Palm Event Center, June 20, 2010

"Bridgit and I just got back from our honeymoon! This past month has been awesome. Denon and Doyle are amazing.

First off, the photo booth was a hit with all the guests and it basically replaced the guest book. Second, the lights were set up perfectly and added a nice touch and created a great ambiance. Third, and most importantly, Abe was GREAT!!!! He read the crowd perfectly. He was able to incorporate our ethnic music and mix in our own special style. He did all this while keeping everyone on the dance floor. Many of our guests took note and commented on his skills. I would say Abe is cool, knows how to read a crowd, has a good understanding of what's appropriate and timely, and can interject at the right moments. He served as our MC and exceeded all expectations. Aside form his DJ mastery, Abe is a kind and accommodating person. He responded to emails quickly and provided helpful suggestions. Unique to our wedding situation, Abe was able to perfectly coordinate playing our first dance song right where Bridgit and I left off performing. Our performance was definitely a highlight of the night and Abe was critical in making it a success. I would recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.

Bridgit and I know a few couples who are getting married soon and will definitely mention the Denon and Doyle team!"
-Roger Khater, Peninsula Country Club, June 19, 2010

"Jason was outstanding. So much so that we may hire him again for july 10th - is he available"
-Dana Spanger, Private Residence, June 19, 2010

"The photo booth was a huge hit! The night went perfectly-- terrific food, gorgeous weather, wonderful music and plenty of dancing. I wish I could afford to do it more often! You can be sure you will get referrals from me."
-Maryanne LaPointe, Private Residence, June 12, 2010

"Chad did a great job. He always has for us. That is why I requested him a year in advance. EVERYONE had a good time. Please let him know that we LOVE him. (I think he already knows)"
-Karen Watson, Concord Hilton, June 12, 2010

"Mark did an amazing job at our wedding. From setting up the sound for our ceremony to the last song of the night, Mark was a true professional and everything went smoothly thanks to him. He played everything on our wish list and was able to incorporate last minute requests with true finesse. Our friends and relatives complimented us throughout the night on the great music that was played, and the credit goes to Mark for coordinating everything so well. We're thrilled that Mark did such a great job and would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone."
-Bert Bangayan, Carneros Inn, June 12, 2010

"The wedding was wonderful. Martin was so great and he played a good mix of songs that kept the dance floor going most of the time. He also did very well with the timing and announcements of events. He was really friendly and wonderful to work with. Thank you for choosing him as our DJ!

It was so nice to work with you and Denon & Doyle. I can see why you come recommended by the Sir Francis and The Knot. The service was top notch and took stress off of my shoulders. I really appreciate that."
-Cristyn Gunther, Sir Francis Drake, June 12, 2010

"Alex was great! He really did an excellent job at our wedding and helped us through some "pinches" so that none of the guests noticed. For example, our pictures ran late, so he covered the dinner hour since our live music couldn't stay, and played a really nice selection of music. And, to quote one of my friends at the wedding, he played "the best dancing three-song combo at any wedding he's been to" to start the party moving! He did a great job keeping the party alive the whole night and giving us as much dance time as we could despite our late start. It was such a shock when he announced that he only had two songs left-- everyone could have danced for much longer. I really appreciated how he frequently checked in with Tyler and I to make sure that we were all on the same page. I also really appreciated how he did many "non-DJ" things to help out-- like help direct me on where to go when I arrived at the Brazil Room, and checking to make sure that Tyler was not where I needed to be before the ceremony, etc. He was very professional, always had a smile on his face, and we were very, very happy with him. We all had an awesome time!"
-Katrina Lundquist, Brazilion Room, June 12, 2010

"Yes, the wedding was amazing! Chris was wonderful! Everyone commented on how great he was, not just at being a DJ, but he went above and beyond our expectations from giving tips to our best man and maid of honor before their speeches, to getting drinks for everyone in our wedding party. I cannot rave enough at how great he is. We will definitely be recommending Chris and Denon & Doyle to everyone we know. By far, you were the best vendor to work with throughout the wedding planning process."
-Kim Wong, San Mateo Marriott, June 12, 2010

"Niall and Robert were really great! They were on time, flexible and the right chemistry fit for the event. Robert was professional and really pleasant with guests. They enjoyed the photobooth and appreciated his service. Niall was nimble and excellent as an MC with last minute announcements and requests. He is a hard worker, he sincerely cares about the clients' needs, and he's professional. I appreciate working with him.

I much appreciated your attention to detail, time and thoughtfulness prior to Anne and Carlos' big day. Also, a BIG thank you to Chris and Patrick as they were helpful in making the day a success. The photobooth strip design and background panel were a hit especially with the bride!"
-Koryn Pacjia, Cavallo Point, June 5, 2010

"Chris was amazing!!! We love Chris.... he was there making sure Phil and I were taken care of. He made sure the time-line was on time. He has such a great personality for a DJ. Chris got the crowd going with Phil and I playing the shoe game (who is better by using one of each others shoe) that was great. I am so happy we chose Denon & Doyle as our DJ, you were my first choice and only choice. I will definitely recommend you to my friends who plan on getting married in the future or any parties we plan in the future too."

"Words cannot begin to express how great of a job Mark did in making our wedding the best time of our lives!! From the start of the planning up to the event and all the way to the end Mark performed flawlessly and was complimented by several people in attendance. Denon and Doyle's experience was clearly evident in Mark's performance and will be highly recommended to all of our friends and family for any and all occasions from this day forward. Thanks to the entire staff and especially Mark for and incredible show that will be forever cherished!!"
-Steve Conger, Concord Crowne Plaza, June 5, 2010

"Chris was fabulous, he did an AMAZING job. Patrick and I could not be happier with how well he did things. The music really does make an event, and the music definitely made a difference here. Chris took his job 17 steps further than any other DJ I've ever seen. He kept Patrick and I on track and worked perfectly with the hotel staff, and other vendors."
-Monica Lilla Gutierrez, The Argonaut Hotel, May 30, 2010

"It was AWESOME! Kevin was remarkable! He kept to the "schedule" and maintained a steady pace... So many people complimented us on his work! We'd recommend him in a heartbeat! (And I know Naomi & Steve feel similarly!)"
Debbie Roudman, Crow Canyon Country Club, May 30, 2010

"Everything Denon and Doyle provided was wonderful. Tim did an amazing job in seamlessly mixing an eclectic mix of music for everyone to enjoy. We were happy to see people from all generations dancing continuously throughout the night. The changing ambient mood lighting was complimented profusely by our photographers so we were pleased that we've made the right choices. What gathered the most accolades was the photobooth! It was a HUGE hit, especially with a small dosage of props and personalized logo. The modern photobooth was nostalgic, efficient and extremely fun for all of our guests. We are so inspired and tempted to get one just for our home!

Thank you for all the accomodations you have made for us and our event. It's been a pleasure and we look forward to perusing through the online gallery of photos. "
-Uyen Dinh, Calistoga Ranch, May 30, 2010

"We just got back into town from the honeymoon -- so glad you emailed!! I can't tell you how much we loved Martin!!!! He was fabulous. So many of our friends commented about what a great job he did -- he really kept people on the dance floor the whole night. We will definitely be recommending your company to anyone planning an event out on the east coast."
-Kristie DiSalvo, Bridges Golf Club, May 29, 2010

"I was planning on contacting you soon about the wonderful job Larry did. We had an amazing time and Larry was so kind and smiling. He was perfect, playing all the special songs we wanted to hear as well as taking request from all of our guests. I was a bit nervous since I took the Yacht Clubs recommendation for your company. But the moment we chatted with Larry I knew we had nothing to worry about. I can't thank you and Larry enough for making our day so unique and special. Please pass along to Larry our sincere thanks, I had to rush off because my dress was cutting of my circulation, and I am pretty sure my husband was in no state to remember manners and thank him in person. "
-Amy & Ryen, Corinthian Yacht Club, May 29, 2010

"Many thanks to you, Chad and Michael for a tremendous ceremony and reception!! We received many compliments on the music selection. I recall during dinner/dessert that there was a lull in the dancing. I mentioned to Chad to do whatever he had to get everyone dancing. I practically turned around and the dance floor was full again - and remained that way until the end of the night. It was just what we wanted. Too bad it had to end.

We will absolutely recommend your services to everyone we know.

Thanks for a truly wonderful time!"
-Drew MacDonald, Crow Canyon Country Club, May 28, 2010

"Kevin was absolutely amazing! Kevin had the timeline down to the minute, had everything under control, and did everything we asked him to do. He got all our guests dancing to the very last song and today, everyone kept telling us how smoothly the night went and how much fun they had, especially with the photobooth. (The photobooth tech, Austin I believe was his name, was awesome as well. He was very helpful, polite, and a lot of fun.) I am so glad we went with Kevin and the photobooth :)

The only part of our day that didn't go smoothly was during our ceremony... the technician/sound guy kept messing up!! He started playing the music at the wrong moments, then would cut off the songs abruptly, AND he played the wrong songs during certain parts of our ceremony... made me wish we had Kevin do our ceremony music also!

I've heard it said that the DJ is the one who pretty much makes or breaks the dinner reception... well, Kevin certainly made our night and we couldn't be happier. He is a great asset to D&D.

Thanks again for being so thorough throughout the process. I honestly can't think of another thing D&D could have done to make our day any better... I'll be telling all my engaged friends about Kevin and D&D!

A very happy bride,"
-Jennifer Liao, Caffe Verbena, May 22, 2010

"The wedding was amazing and Brian was really great!! I've heard lots of guests say how fun the music and dancing was, I would reccommend Brian to anyone."
-Angela Hass, Brazilion Roon, May 22, 2010

"Everything was just perfect!!! Our wedding went off without a hitch, and a lot of it was due to Chad and his wonderful talent. Everyone told me that Chad had such a great way with the guests, and was so accommodating to all of our guests at the wedding, especially Nick and I. He made sure we had everything that we needed, from water, to drinks, to a great time! He was so easy to work with, so friendly and so professional!

All of our guests at some point mentioned that the music was great and the organization and announcements flowed so well!!

A lot of what makes a great wedding is the djay and the music. Chad went above and beyond to make sure our wedding reception was nothing short of amazing!!

I will recommend Denon and Doyle (especially Chad) to friends and family time and time again - your company doesn't disappoint!

Thanks again for EVERYTHING!!!"
-Lindsay Harris, Ruby Hills Golf Club, May 22, 2010

"Chris!

You were amazing! Thank you so much for helping make our day stress free! I'm so sorry I didn't get to thank you personally, I was just so exhausted and ready for bed :) but again thank you! I hope to here from you soon! And we'll definitely be recommending you to some people we know who are soon to get married! Lots of love!"
-Monica Moran, Humphreys, May 22, 2010

"The party was fabulous, and the photo booth was a big hit! We've been getting compliments left and right about how great the photo booth was, and how helpful and fun Austin was. Thanks so much for all the work you put into making our wedding reception such a memorable event! We can't thank you guys enough!"
-Jennifer Liao, Caffe Verbena, May 22, 2010

"I meant to drop you a note yesterday to say what a great job Kevin did! He is so good at reading the crowd, he had them dancing in no time at all. I'm glad we decided to bring multiple speakers; we did get a complaint that the music was too loud and Kevin lowered the volume on the sides of the room but kept it pumped up on the dance floor. By the way, my client rolled her eyes at the complaint, she clearly thought the music volume was just right.

Thanks again -- once again Denon & Doyle made the party great!"
-Jean Greendyke-Cappa & Granam, San Francisco Marriott, May 16, 2010

"Everyone we talked to had a great time! Niall was excellent at keeping the party going and up beat. We think he must have had a nearly psychic music-choice sense. All of our special requests were handled well."
-Jen Smith, Chaminade, May 15, 2010

"We just got back from our honeymoon yesterday and are slowly readjusting to the "real world"... it isn't easy! We were thrilled with the music at our wedding. Kevin really listened to what Gary and I discussed with him regarding what music to play (and not play), including specific "must plays" and also more general types of music we wanted. For example, we were clear that we wanted NO cheesy songs like YMCA, the chicken dance, or the Macarena. We were so impressed when Kevin declined a request to play the Cha Cha Slide (even though we didn't specifically name it) because it fell in the "cheesy dance song" category. (We are also happy with his flexibility when we told him to go ahead and play the song anyway. :)) Kevin also delivered when it came to his "style" and level of involvement at the wedding. We had asked Kevin to help announce the first dance, cake cutting, etc.. but we were clear that we weren't looking for a cheesy MC, and were really wanting the music to "do the talking" and get people on the dance floor. We got exactly what we wanted and everyone had an amazing time! Even the music during the cocktail hour and dinner was perfect (and we gave little to no direction on that, except naming a few songs as examples of the type of music we wanted). Please send along our thanks and compliments to Kevin! Lastly, Denon & Doyle (and you in particular, Brian) was a pleasure to work with leading up to the wedding. Thank you again for being such a huge part of our Big Day!!"
-Melissa Schmidt, Kohl Mansion, May 15, 2010

"Everything was spectacular!

The entire night flew by so quickly - my only complaint!

Abe was great! He kept the party moving which allowed us to spend time with our guests!! He also had great energy.... and had people dancing until they kicked us out!

You were all so helpful... thanks again for making our day so special!!"
-Jen Smith, Spinnaker Restaurant, May 8, 2010

"The photo booth was GREAT!! We had so much fun with it as I'm sure you can tell :) Everyone loved it and thought it was so great! Brian was fantastic!! We loved him and he was so much fun and super helpful!! Thanks for a wonderful evening!"
-Kirsten Miks, Private Residence, May 8, 2010

"We had a wonderful day. Kevin did a great job. I did not worry about the music all night -- that is a clear indication that the music was great. All our guests had a lot of fun at the reception. They loved the Indian music! I put in a review under the Project Wedding website."
-Sophia Sharma, Round Hill Country Club, May 1, 2010

"Mark Haggerty was our dj and we had such a great time. We want to thank Denon and Doyle for providing us such great service and also for working with our budget. We were also very happy with Mark Haggerty. Bryant and I had some trouble picking a first dance song and Mark helped us find a song we liked and even went out of his way to mix/edit our song so we would be comfortable dancing to it. He created the right mood for our reception and gave us copies of some of the music from our wedding (a really nice touch). He also called me the day before the wedding to make sure I was okay and to offer his help, which was also very thoughtful. Great service all around and we would definitely recommend your company and especially Mark to others! "
-Bryant Dun, Vintage 1870, April 24, 2010

"I wanted to send an extra thank you to you guys. I appreciate so much everything you guys did for me on this one. Binky was FABULOUS not only keeping everyone on the floor and and having a great time but really letting me be able to take a step back and enjoy spending time with my friends and family"
-Brittani Waldman, Italian Athletic Club, April 24, 2010

"Thanks Chris. The photo booth was a huge hit! It was such a great addition to our reception and everyone is still talking about it. Everything was perfect!"
-Jennifer Hagen, Viansa Winery, April 17, 2010

"Both Rachel and I wanted to extend our sincerest gratitude to Kevin. He was no less than superb for our reception. There were 350 people present and I cannot begin to tell you how many compliments we got for our reception. So many people came up to us and said they've been to a billion weddings and this, by far, was the most fun they had. A lot of that is attributable to Kevin. He kept things moving, he was engaging with our crowd and he was also respectful in not over stepping his bounds or being too front and center with his Emceeing. In a word, Kevin was very professional.

I will also mention that we had a very wide ranging crowd. We had a span from the very conservative to those who really liked to party, and Kevin was able to keep everybody engaged throughout the reception.

I usually don't write lengthy compliments but I think Kevin really deserves one. We had a most memorable wedding reception and I would not hesitate to recommend Denon and Doyle (and Kevin) to anyone who inquires.

Thank you again. You services were greatly appreciated."
-Joel & Rachel, Decathlon Club, April 17, 2010

"Just got back from our honeymoon. Niall did an amazing job. He was very personable and helpful. Our guests danced a good majority of the night. Thanks for your help and great service."
-Jennifer Chafer, Bridges Golf Club, April 10, 2010

"The wedding was awesome and Kevin did great! I have had multiple people compliment us on the DJay and ask for contact info. He rickrolled the wedding as planned and only ONE person got it but it was so worth it! lol."
-Melanie McMullan, Opera House, April 3, 2010

"WOW! WOW! WOW! I must say, people can not stop raving about our wedding. It was absolutely amazing! Mark and I had met a few times before to run through the music. Our ceremony music was very classic, very original, something new. There was one part of the song that I reaaalllllyyyyy wanted to make my appearance for and guess what.... As I get to the top of the staircase, I hit it. I glance over to Mark, smile, and he gave me the thumbs up! We made it!!!! There were more people at our wedding that said they literally "felt like they were in a movie." Without the help from Mark, that wouldn't have been the case. I also loved how Mark had asked me to make a song list for him - he did not stray! It was amazing! The perfect mix of music and the perfect songs. A friend of mine had told me that she "has never seen an entire wedding on the dance floor at the same time." It was magical! Mark, Thank You. Thank you so very much for making the wedding as fabulous as it was. Music makes all the difference. I love how you played the perfect tunes and you played them loudly! I also want to thank you for staying a little longer than you initially thought you would stay. You're a trooper because no one was ready to go yet! So, I thank you for keeping the party going! :)"
-Yasmina Kipa, Blackhawk Auto Museum, March 20, 2010

"As usual, Denon & Doyle exceeded our expectations. You are absolutely right..... there is a buzz about Saturday night.

Chris and Tyrone were fantastic and very professional. Chris did an amazing job managing/working the crowd. We were all extremely impressed with Brian as well. He did an awesome job as the auctioneer."
-Katie McLaughlin, Contra Costa Country Club, March 20, 2010

"I can't begin to tell you what an amazing job Mark did at our wedding. The dance floor was full all night long! I have never been to a wedding where that many people were dancing and it definitely had to do with the great job that Mark did. We had sooooo many people telling us what a great DJ we had and asking us what company he was with. We made sure to give you as much free marketing as we could :)

Please thank Mark again for us and we will be talking about him and Denon & Doyle for a very long time to come."
-Monica Lorenzen, Marine's Memorial, March 20, 2010

"Hey. The photobooth was a HUGE hit! At one point I came down the main stairs and saw a line of people all eagerly awaiting their turn, already in costume! The guy in charge was super cool as well. We could not be happier with the way it all went. Thank you."
-Liz Lisle, Marin Headlands, March 20, 2010

"Mark did an awesome job. Everyone loved the music and the dance floor was full most of the night. Please tell him thank you from me!"
-Bridget & Ryan, Contra Costa Country Club, March 6, 2010

"The party was GREAT ! Everyone LOVED Chris' music selection. He was playing to ages ranged from 6 years old to 70 years old and EVERYONE was dancing -- now that is a successful DJ !!!!"
-Mariah Bradford-Urban, Back Forty, February 27, 2010

"The event was great and Brian was amazing!! He was a pleasure to work with and had obviously given out event a lot of thought prior to working at it. There was great energy between him and the auctioneer and the music was perfect. I've received lots of great feedback about him! If we do an auction next year, we'll definitely be requesting him!!"
-Jackie Cate, Boundary Oaks, February 27, 2010

"The party was a huge success and we are still getting compliments about it. I could not have asked for a better guy! Kevin was awesome. I knew this would be a tough crowd to get on the dance floor but the music he played during dinner was perfect and so was the music to 'try' and get people on the dance floor. My supervisors were very pleased and we will definitely be using you guys again. You were very easy to work with and we really appreciate all that you did for us."
-Lunn Cronin, Siverado Country Club, February 25, 2010

"Kevin was a huge success! You know everyone's enjoying themselves when the dance floor is completely packed. He had an excellent mix of music that catered to our diverse crowd. He really knows how to use the sound bites well during speeches and raffles and everyone loved his 'let's make a deal' game. We really appreciated him returning to DJ for The Olympic Club's Employee Appreciation party!"
-Sharon Zimmerman, Merchant Exchange Bldg, February 13, 2010

"Everything went very well at our wedding. Mark was great to work with and we really appreciated all of his extra help with sound during the ceremony and the slide show as well. Overall, our experience with you guys was terrific and we would happily recommend you to others. "
-Kristen Brunson, Mira Vista Country Club, February 13, 2010

"Donald did a great job with selections, volume, reading the crowd, etc. We had a blast"
-Russ Cooper St Francis Yacht Club, February 12, 2010

"The following is a very critical review of his performance:
In one word, Chris Mowery is nothing short of AMAZING!!

Not only did Chris make the reception a wonderful event for all of our guests, he tailored each detail of the reception to our needs and requests. Chris was accomidating before our event and went above and beyond his duties on the day of the event. He even stayed with us during pictures to ensure that we had the necessary drinks/snacks needed to keep us happy.

Anne and I honestly could not have asked for (or imagined) a better DJ for our special day. After returning from our honeymoon, Anne and I have spoken to many of our guests and reminisced about our ceremony and reception. More than half of the people we have spoken to have made comments about the music, and the DJ, and how both were amazing. Chris successfully entertained all 200 guests for the entire reception, and never once was the dance floor empty or did the reception lag.

I could praise Chris all day, but the bottom line is that he truly was a perfect fit for our event. Anne and I feel like we've gained a friend in Chris as well. As one of the first couples in our group of friends to get married, we will most certainly recommend Chris, and Denon & Doyle, for any future events. Chris represented Denon & Doyle in a professional, courteous, and knowledgeable way. He is an amazing representative for your organization.

Thank you again for following up with us regarding feedback for Chris. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact either one of us. Anne and I are more than willing to sing praises for Chris at any time. We look forward to working with Denon & Doyle in the future and thank you again!!!"
Brian & Anne, St Mary's Soda Center, January 9, 2010

"Thank you Mark! I just want to second Chingwin, you guys were fantastic. I've never seen a wedding where everyone was dancing so much, you did a really great job keeping the crowd going. And the photobooth was a total blast, everyone kept telling me how much fun it was. Again, thank you!"
-Adam Pyonin, The Argonaut Hotel, January 9, 2010

"The event was great and Donald did an amazing job. The party-goers have all raved about the event so we consider it a success! Thank you and we look forward to working with you in the future."
-Samantha Rogers, The Flood Mansion, January 8, 2010
