  I didn't book with them because they were way out of our price range. Their fun room was great, and that's why they get you in there before they will talk pricing with you. FI and I really thought hard about it, but decided not to go with them. All of their effects are used only during the special dances, not the whole night. We figured that money could be used elsewhere. He also tried to convince us that we would never find a DJ cheaper than $1000, and we did that too. Haven't had the wedding yet, but so far they have been on top of things.

  Really,
  Who did you decide to go with, and how much are they chargeing you if you don't mind me asking. Also does that include lighting or just music.
  
  Thank you,
  Joysyear

  We are using Sunset DJ. They charged 600 for just music for a 5 hour reception. The lighting I believe was $20 for each up light; but the dance floor lighting was included in the music package.
  If you want to use them, and say that I recommended you we both will get a discount. Just let me know.

  I know J and M is expensive, but they are well worth the money. I have been to several wedding that they have DJ/MC'd and they will be doing ours too. They are also willing to work with your budget if you ask or tell them how much you have to work with. If you want a fun party, where everyone....and I mean EVERYONE is dancing all night long choose them. I wouldn't have gone with anyone else! HTH, let me know if you have any other questions! Also, you can get a discount with J and M if you tell them I referred you.

  I just recently used J&M for my wedding 1/29/11. They are worth every penny! I got the DJ/MC, Clouds, and bubbles, PA System for the ceremony. A lot of my friends have been getting married lately and I have had pretty boring receptions. Things didn't flow and most of the time you are bored waiting for them to finish taking their pictures. I'm sad to say but I left most of the weddings early.

  
  

  J&M had all my guest laughing and dancing and in awe when we had our first dance with the clouds. My dad cried. They turned my wedding into an experience that no one could forget. I don't think anyone left my wedding early. Even my parents and grandparents were dancing. They are a little bit more expensive but worth it.

  </div><div>Aww thanks!!! </div><div>We are just doing the DJ and MC package with a speaker upgrade. They have been so helpful the whole time. I used my friends as a reference and got 200 off and then they threw in a few more extras! I know people who have also just booked with just a DJ and they've have been satisfied too! I am just using them for my reception, not the ceremony. HTH! Let me know if you have any other questions!</div>
