Margaret B. Sent on 08/16/2024The easiest way to book your most important vendors!
We booked the team approach from Mike Staff Productions for our wedding day, and we couldn't be happier with our entire experience. Having our photographer, videographer, and DJ all know each other and having worked together at previous weddings really made a difference. Their compatibility showed throughout the entire event. Each of them was on time, highly professional, and made sure that all of our family members and guests were comfortable with whatever was going on at the moment.
Our photographer, Vesna, who immediately jumped into action the moment she arrived. She created a fun, relaxing environment and made us feel like we weren't in a photo shoot. Vesna had an eye for what I thought was not a very photogenic venue, but she made our pictures beautiful. The way she spoke to all of our family members during formal pictures made everyone feel relaxed, but also aware that we needed to get things done. She was constantly making sure my husband and I were on the same page and knew what was going on. We couldn't be happier with her work.
Secondly, our DJ was the highlight of the entire wedding. All of our guests are still raving about how much fun they had during the reception. Once everyone got on the dance floor after our dance, no one left until the entire wedding was over. He made sure to cater to a very diverse crowd of guests and played everything we asked him to. He made us feel like we were the stars of the show. We highly recommend Ron if you’ve got a guest list that loves to dance!
Lastly, our videographer, David, was just wonderful to work with. He tagged along with Vesna and really captured a lot of beautiful moments on our wedding day. We couldn't be happier with the video and how it all turned out. He made sure he was never in the way but still captured every moment. His laid back demeanor and friendly attitude really helped put us at ease in some stressful moments.
We highly recommend Mike Staff Productions for anyone considering them for their wedding. They truly made our day unforgettable.Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words, Margaret! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with our team approach for your wedding day. It was truly our pleasure to be a part of such a special moment in your lives.
Vesna, Ron, and David are all smiling ear to ear after reading your review. They genuinely love what they do, and it’s so rewarding to know that their chemistry and professionalism shone through on your big day. Vesna will be especially glad to hear that she made the photo process enjoyable and stress-free—she always strives to capture the beauty in every venue, and we're so happy you loved the results.
Ron is over the moon that the dance floor was packed all night long! He loves creating those unforgettable party vibes, and knowing that your guests are still raving about it makes his day. And David, with his eye for capturing those special moments, will be thrilled that his presence added ease rather than stress.
We are so grateful for your recommendation and for allowing us to be a part of your unforgettable day. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and beautiful memories! -

Alexandra Sent on 09/15/2023Amazing work and communication
My husband and I used Mike Staff Productions for our Photography and DJ. To start out, you know when planning a wedding, communication is essential. Mike Staff had it right from the get go. Emails about reminders, FAQ, any help needed, etc. Our photographer was Mary. I cannot say enough about her. When we did our video call to go over expectations/time line, I knew we picked the right person. She was laid vack and made you feel at ease the day of. We had children (including our own) stand up in the wedding and she did amazing with them. She was so patient and knew what to do. All of our guests and family had complimented on her and how great she was. I forgot to bring my picture list to hand to her. Without skipping a beat, she took the initiative and directed everything. Efficiency at its finest. The photos were incredibly beautiful! Our DJ Sean was so much fun and had the party going at the end of the night.Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Thank you for your glowing 5-star review of Mike Staff Productions! We're delighted that your wedding experience with us was so positive, thanks to the excellent work of Mary, your photographer, and Sean, your DJ.
Our commitment to clear communication is a top priority, and we're thrilled it made your wedding planning smoother. Mary's talent in capturing beautiful moments and her ability to handle everything with grace, including the kids, is truly impressive. Sean's DJ skills clearly had the party rocking until the very end!
We appreciate your trust in us and are here for any future needs. Wishing you both a lifetime of joy and cherished memories! -

We were recommended to use Mike Staff by my sister after they did a great job at her wedding. You are able to hire services for photography, videography, and a DJ. This makes it so easy to package these services up so you don’t have to have more vendors to be responsible for. We ended up hiring a videographer named Jake and a DJ named DJ Kevin J.
Video: I wasn’t so sure about hiring a videographer at all, thinking I wouldn’t actually watch the footage back but I was wrong. I LOVE being able to relive this day over and over again. Jake did such a great job of making us feel comfortable and not like there was a giant camera in our faces the whole day. He was very friendly and relatable. Jake went over things we wanted video of and made sure to record those things and more! We were sent a short video (about 10 minutes) of our wedding and a long version of the wedding video (about an hour and a half), both were great!
DJ: DJ Kevin J was also great! We had a call with him a week before the wedding going over the music selection for the dances, cocktail hour, and reception. My husband and I’s music taste is pretty all over the place but DJ Kevin J was about the play music all across the board. One thing we really wanted at our wedding was music that made everyone want to dance all night long and DJ Kevin J definitely achieved that goal for us! He was able to keep our friends in their 20s-30s and our family in their 50s, 60s, and 70s on the dance floor!
Overall, Mike Staff is an awesome company to hire for your wedding. You are able to “shop around” within the company and pick the person that best fits what you need. Jake and DJ Kevin J were our top picks for our wedding because their interests and style blended best with us. I have already recommended Mike Staff to many of my friends who are getting married in the next few years and I will continue to recommend them!
Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Thank you, Jordan! This review made our week! We are so lucky to have such talented people on our team and we're thrilled to hear your videographer and DJ made your day special and stress free! Kevin knows how to pack a dance floor - especially getting EVERYONE out there! We appreciate the kind words so much and love hearing how much you enjoyed the 'shopping' process. We truly try to put as much control in your hands so you are getting a team that reflects YOU! It was an honor to be a part of your wedding. We hope you cherish the memories for a lifetime. -

Highly recommend using Mike Staff. We had Brandon as our videographer, he was great! Super nice and friendly, our video turned out amazing. I think this company did great overall and I would recommend them to anyone.Mike Staff Productions's reply:

Mike Staff Productions absolutely made our night one to remember forever! Every step of the way, Mike Staff Productions' Team was more than helpful. They provided numerous resources as well as detailed one-on-one discussions prior to the event. We had the pleasure of having Jim with us and we cannot say enough about how wonderful he was! Jim's personality lit up the room! Jim was very vocal (loud enough for those in the back of the venue to hear), his pronunciation was great & his knowledge for music choice was impeccable! Everyone felt included and genuinely had a great time! 10/10. Would recommend to all!Mike Staff Productions's reply:
This has to be one of our favorite reviews! Of course, we love hearing about how awesome DJ Jim was (especially that all the guests felt included)! But something a lot of couples don't know about Mike Staff Productions is that we have an entire team dedicated to creating & developing resources & tools, along with knowledgeable experts guiding couples through the process. Thank you for sharing with us how much that helped you. It was an honor to be a part of your day! -

Tianna S. Sent on 11/03/2022Photography and DJ Services
We hired Mike Staff Productions for both photography and DJ services. Both services were absolutely amazing! When looking for a photographer and DJ on google, Mike Staff was the first one to pop up in our area. We had a great experience with them from the initial contact (prior to booking) to the very end. We decided to have two photographers and add on an additional hour for both since our ceremony was so early -- I highly recommend having two photographers and adding an additional hour if needed! Our main photographer was Pam and the second was Joel-- they were both amazing! Pam was there for us every step of the way pre-wedding and wedding day. She was very easy to communicate with, very talented and it was very apparent that she absolutely loves her job which is so important in this line of work! :) The turn around for receiving a sneak peak and then all of the photos was great. Our DJ was amazing as well! We had DJ Dave and he was very easy to communicate with, listened to our requests + our guests requests, kept the timeline going smoothly and was overall very talented at his job! The dance floor remained packed until the end! We could not be happier with all of our photos and both the DJ and photography service we received. We would recommend Mike Staff to everyone!Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Tianna - how do we begin to thank you!? This review knocked our socks off and means so much to our team. We were honored to be a part of your wedding we know DJ Dave, Pam and Joel enjoyed working with you and your family. We have true pros on our team and we're thrilled to hear they delivered big time on your big day! Let me say it again - THANK YOU! -

Mandy B. Sent on 09/23/2022Amazing DJ for our entire evening
Matt, our DJ from Mike Staff Productions was PHENOMENAL. I had other couples talk about wanting him to DJ their weddings after ours. He was great about talking with us ahead of time to really get to know us and understand what we wanted - he took an entire hour on the phone to really make sure we walked through everything. He did our entire event - pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception. Also, Mike Staff as a whole make it super super easy to do this. They have pre-made playlists to help give you ideas or starting points for every single part of your wedding (they even have playlists by theme) - ceremony, aisle walkup, reception, welcome song, etc...there is a whole playlist for it. These folks do a genuinely amazing job. They also give you a really easy (yet detailed) form to fill out for everything, so you can be very specific about what you want to happen at each part of your wedding. We went with Mike Staff because they actually have a pretty rigorous hiring process for their DJs to ensure they can read a room and be the vibe soothsayers that they are. We were so impressed with Matt as our DJ and can't thank him enough for the wonderful night that he helped provide.Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Mandy - how do we begin to thank you!? This review knocked our socks off and means so much to our team. We were honored to be a part of your wedding. We know DJ Matt enjoyed working with you and your family. Also, thank you for showing our customer service / behind the scenes team some love, too! We work endlessly to put together resources for our couples to help them through the planning process. We have true pros on our team and we're thrilled to hear DJ Matt delivered big time on your big day! Let me say it again - THANK YOU! -

DJ Matt was great!
We used Mike Staff for our DJ services, and DJ Matt Fillion did a great job. The music selections during the reception were great, and a highlight of the ceremony was Matt's piano playing. Our guests loved the live music, and he was able to incorporate our niche piano song requests. SO talented and really added something special to our wedding - thanks Matt.Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Thank you so much, Kelly! We appreciate your kind words so much. DJ Matt is a true pro and his ability to play live music at weddings is honestly so special & we're thrilled he delivered on your day! THANK YOU for leaving these kind words. -

Brandon G. Sent on 08/31/2022Simple, Takes Stress Away, Terrific Job
Went with Mike Staff because they offer everything you need in one package. We went with 2 photographers, videographer, and DJ. Process was super simple and made planning the wedding easy. Chose photographer (earlier you book more options you have) same as DJ. They were in contact before wedding to help make sure everything ran smoothly. My wedding had last minute changes which all of the staff accommodated well in a professional manner.
Photographer: We had Mary. She was amazing as well as her assistant Prianka. They covered everything we wanted and more. In total we received over 1200 images which we still need to narrow down to our favorites. They were more than a photographer. They helped be a part of our wedding by keeping things on time, they got the shots we asked for, they even started a dance when no one knew how to do one of the dances played and got everyone in the groove. I am super happy with who we had and would recommend Mary 100%.
Videographer: We had Brendan. He was amazing, he was there but not there which is what you want in a videographer. What I mean is he was not talking and being a distraction and drawing attention to himself so he can get the genuine shots without people looking at the camera. He got all the shots needed to remember the day. My wife cried when she saw the highlight reel and the full wedding video. With that reaction I am super glad we went with Mike Staff.
DJ. We had Kyle. He was amazing. He played the songs we needed, was perfect at introducing everyone and making announcements. Helped make sure everything went smoothly and on time as well. Overall, just a great experience, I have no complaints about our DJ.
Overall having the 3 major vendors coordinated as smooth under one service was a huge bonus. Took so much pressure off of us knowing it will work smoothly. Hiring three different ones and having them coordinate the day of and not worked together would have worked, but just adds more stress. Knowing they all have their system and are familiar with how it all goes was super helpful. There was never a time where my wife or I were stressed about any of our vendors which let us relax and enjoy our big day.Mike Staff Productions's reply:
Dude, Brandon.... how do we thank you for this INCREDIBLE review? #1. Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed account of your experience. Do you realize how helpful a breakdown of your day is for coupes just starting to plan? #2. We are thrilled you loved each and every one of your team members! You did have a kick-ass team and we're so glad they DELIVERED - big time - on your wedding. #3. It was an HONOR to provide you with a stress free wedding day and vendors you could trust to handle the details so you could enjoy your day. You are the BEST! THANK YOU! -

Josh from Mike Staff was incredibly friendly, thorough, and played AMAZING music all night. He also played exactly what we wanted at our ceremony, and it was perfect! He spent time during our consultation getting to know us and making sure he knew what we wanted, and that was reflected throughout the night. Mike Staff has also done my brother and cousin’s weddings and was fantastic then as well. Highly recommend!Mike Staff Productions's reply:
DJ Josh is a true pro and we're glad you had such an excellent experience working with him - from start to finish. We LOVE hearing how he took the time to get to know you both and understand your vision for the wedding. AND - can we just say how awesome it is that Mike Staff Productions could be a part of THREE weddings in your family! WOW that is a true honor. We cannot thank you enough for these kind words. -
