Spoiler for the rest of this story: We HIGHLY recommend Soul Deep. We could not be happier about how things turned out and are so thankful that Mike was a part of our wedding.
The specifics: We had 2 major fears with the music for our wedding: [Concern 1] We’d end up with a total wedding DJ stereotype–Guy Fieri, Wedding DJ edition, playing all the stupid wedding standards. [Concern 2] Even if we did have great music, none of our guests would dance.
My musician husband was adamant about a live band but after having to rule that out (venue/space/budget/general riskiness), vinyl seemed like the next best bet. After finding Mike, and a few interactions, it was clear that Concern 1 was a non-issue. We instantly felt like we could trust Mike–he just “gets it” and was on the same page as us at every step.
Now for Concern 2. Overall, our friends/families are notoriously not very dance-y. Despite that, it’s easy to say that Mike brought it out of folks. I still really cannot believe the response to the music selections (evidenced by dancing and numerous compliments)–from guests of all ages and walks. We had the best time and loved every song he played / choice he made. Love how eclectic the playlist was, but also it felt cohesive and very “Us”. Several of our best memories of the wedding are music/dance-floor-related. And–My husband has no regrets about not having a live band.
Mike’s the whole package–Reliable, authentic and talented. One of our guests said it best: He’s set the bar very high for all upcoming weddings!
