Music is a powerful force. It’s no surprise that music is the undercurrent of different events in our lives. It’s important to have the right music for the right situation. That’s where a capable DJ comes in. If a DJ is doing the job right, everyone has a good time. If not, complaints and unrest abound! I would love to have the opportunity to provide DJ services for your next event – be it a wedding, a special party or a holiday gathering. Check out some of my work and I am confident you will know that I am the right person to make your event special, memorable and a lot of fun! Thank you for your consideration! Here are some of the reviews I have received: Patricia A: Our wedding wouldn't be the same without DJ Lou and his wife! They are amazing! The playlist was awesome. He included some Brazilian songs as we wanted. Also he had a karaoke and they offered a beautiful duet for us. Thank you! - June 23, 2017 Alister S: DJ Sir Lou and his wife were simply an awesome pair together. They were on top of everything, showed up early, did all the proper research and planning, helped me create my wedding and plan the whole thing out. During the night, they were the master of ceremonies, moving the party along, playing all the right music, it was fantastic. I want to THANK YOU, for making our wedding special. For anyone on the fence about hiring DJ Sir Lou, don't be. You should hire him with confidence. - June 20, 2017 Deborah S: My daughter and I hired Lou to DJ her wedding. He added so much more to what was already a special day by his presence alone and the professionalism and music was admired by all. He took time to even show up for a rehearsal and came early on the wedding day to get everything set up to insure there would be no delays. Thank you for your contribute to making my daughters already special day a little more special. - March 25, 2016 Kimberly R: My husband and I hired Lou to DJ my husband's 50th birthday "extravaganza". He created an incredible party atmosphere for us! Lights, camera, Lou! He got a list of songs from us that we wanted to have played for the party and did an excellent job mixing the music! He encouraged us to get out on the dance floor and even led the "Cupid Shuffle" line dance! He kept our entire group engaged with his MC skills telling funny jokes, ragging on us in good fun and keeping a light-hearted atmosphere throughout the night and before we knew it, we had partied into the wee hours of the morning and were still going strong and not wanting to stop! Thanks you so much for making this special occasion a long-lasting and truly memorable event Sir Lou! - March 25, 2016 Jada V: I attended a friends wedding and Lou was the DJ.
