Texas-Dallas and Ft. Worth

DJ

I'm getting married June 12th.  Initially, we were just going to have background music from the Ipod playing during the reception.  Now we're thinking of hiring a DJ.  Do you have any recommendations even though it's less than a month away?

Sorry if it's been asked over and over.  I looked back a few pages and didn't see anything and couldn't get the search to work.

I'm south of Fort Worth (if that matters).

    I LOVED my DJ, Glenn Roush.  But, he is a little expensive ($1500 in 2009).

    Alot of girls recommend Melodies and Memories.  We have several Knotties getting married 6/12 though so they may very well be booked already.

    A Knottie that just got married loved her DJ and I think he's pretty cheap:  Figment Productions in Euless.

    I am going to be using Glenn Roush based on other Knotties reviews and my phone conversation with him was amazing.  I booked him for a Friday night and he is 750.00 I do not know about a sat.

    The DJ at our prom the other night was Aaron with Uptown Sound.  He was a little high-strung but great to work worth.  I used Matt from Your Special Day DJ (I think that was the name).  I found him through The Knot recommends section.

    I got married on March 13th and also used Andy.  He was great to work with and did a great job the day of. 

    Good luck!

    We used Melodies and Memories and didn't have a great experience.

    We used Seth from Dallas Rhythms...I LOVED him! Pricey at $1500 last year, but totally worth every cent. He'll also recommend Glenn Rousch

    We're using Melody from Melodies & Memories, so far I really like her.

    I also really liked DJ Damany Daniel, but his prices were quite a bit higher.

    Haha, well, I can tell you Melody is booked because we are using her on 6/12. I have a feeling Lori, her partner probably is too, but they have 2 other guys as well.

    I also recommend Andy with A Music Wave.

    To be honest, though, I think you are going to have a really hard time finding anyone. I believe there are 5-6 of us on this board alone getting married 6/12

    Try Marshall Argovitz.  I have booked him for my November wedding, and he's a really nice, funny guy so I'm really looking forward to it...

    Thanks for the recommendations.  I've contacted some of them and suprisingly there are still a few available.
