Amazing DJ!!

Holy wow! Where do we begin? Most importantly, if you're reading this and deciding on a DJ, you're probably most interested in the music. Let us be the first to tell you that Marcus put together a phenomenal and FUN playlist for us and our guests to enjoy at our wedding. From the start, Marcus was collaborative with us on the types of songs we enjoyed, wanted played at our wedding, and the vibe we wanted. At our wedding, his entire setlist flowed so well that by the very last song everyone was left wondering how time had flown by so quickly - the true mark of a great time. If you're here and only care about the type of music Marcus will provide, rest assured... Marcus was the best DJ we've run into at a wedding. Period. My wife and I just so happened to be lucky enough to have had him play at our own wedding.

However, I think the best way to describe Marcus, and the type service he'll provide, is by telling you about our wedding. My wife and I had contracted Marcus for our reception (dinner + dancing). We had hired a set of acoustic musicians to play for our ceremony and cocktail hour. Despite needing him from 8pm and onwards, Marcus came hours earlier to set up. He offered our officiant and other musicians additional microphones in case they needed them. After our ceremony, our acoustic musicians had to move locations to play for our cocktail hour. Without any instruction, Marcus took it upon himself to play music for our guests while the other musicians set up. Talk about really going above and beyond and stepping up in small ways that truly help make a wedding. During dinner, Marcus played the perfect music that helped set the mood and allowed for pleasant eating and conversation. He brought wireless microphones for our bridal party speeches and was amazingly adept at reading the room as to when the appropriate time was to stop the music and allow our speakers to speak. He was incredibly prepared and communicative with us (both before and during the wedding) and never imposed himself... as we all know some pesky DJs do on the big day. He was completely in tune with our timeline and flawlessly segwayed from dinner to our first dance to partying. On multiple occasions, family and friends stopped my wife and I just to gush about how much fun they were having and how they loved Marcus and his music. He was truly one of the best people we have EVER worked with.

Tl;dr - Marcus is amazing at his craft and will absolutely rock your wedding! He's incredibly conscientious of your needs. Prepared beyond belief. Highly respectful and an amazing human being. And an absolute pleasure to work with. HIRE. THIS. MAN. Your guests will thank you for it after! :)

Immaculate vibes on the dance floor

We are so lucky to have found Marcus for our wedding. He was professional and communicative but also warm and personable. Multiple guests commented that he was the best DJ they had heard at a wedding and particularly complimented his smooth transitioning. We gave him an eclectic mixture of songs spanning from kpop to bossa nova to reggaeton to motown. Marcus crafted an artful lineup out of our favorites and layered in recommendations of his own to fill in the cracks. The vibes were immaculate during cocktail hour and our friends and family had a blast on the dance floor.

Marcus Ho was the perfect DJ!

We used Marcus Ho for our 2024 wedding! From our first meeting with Marcus, we knew we were in good hands. We had a few calls with other DJs & Marcus stood out from the beginning. Not only was Marcus so personable, but he was truly determined to match the vibe my husband & I were looking for in our wedding music. Our venue was a restaurant with multiple rooms & he managed to have the sound play wonderfully throughout the place. He even went above & beyond by scoping out the restaurant the day before to ensure his set up for the day of.
Marcus did a great job of announcing our toasts, clearing the floor for first dances & providing thoughtful and meaningful announcements when needed. He kept our dance floor packed all night long by playing our “must plays” while also feeling the vibe of the room to keep everyone (regardless of age) dancing and having fun.
Looking back on our wedding, there were little mishaps & things we did not expect for. The true ONE thing my husband & I never had to worry or think about was our music. Having Marcus be our DJ alleviated any potential stress because we know he truly cared about our wedding. He was extremely flexible with the venue, personable with our guests, and exceptionally talented at what he does. I would recommend him 100x over! Out of the different vendors we had - restaurant, hair/makeup etc THIS guy is the absolute #1 recommendation.
