Timing is Everything was the BEST!
We cannot say enough about DJ Ray Der, from Timing is Everything! Our wedding was 10.21.23. We had a small, intimate wedding. Ray was referred to us by our planner. Admittedly, I was anxious that our wedding had the potential to be boring because it was so small. Let me tell you, Ray got the party STARTED and it didn't end until we had to turn the music off! Ray was professional from our first email til the end of the wedding. Truly a great MC/DJ. The ceremony music was sheer perfection. We gave him a small list of "must plays" for the reception, then let him choose the rest. Everything was perfect! Thank you!We cannot say enough about DJ Ray Der, from Timing is Everything!

Fantastic DJ!!
Ray was a fantastic DJ for our wedding on September 1, 2023. He really helped with the timeline of everything and the transitions. He kept the party going and we had multiple compliments from our guests on the music selections. We had multiple meetings with him throughout our planning process and made it fool proof for us with his attention to detail. I couldn't recommend him enough.

Company Party
I heard about Timing is Everything from the coordinator of the Engineer's Club in Baltimore. I needed a DJ that would be diverse due to the varied ages and backgrounds of the people in our department and boy did he deliver. From start to finish Ray's song selection was appropriate. It was inclusive and he had everything from jazz to Beyonce. Everyone truly enjoyed themselves!I heard about Timing is Everything from the coordinator of the Engineer's Club in Baltimore.

Our experience with DJ Mark
We hosted a graduation party for my daughter and it was amazing. He was really attentive to the music we wanted being that we are Hispanic. Everyone was dancing the entire time that he played. Before the party he did ask us details in what we wanted and liked which I really felt that he was attentive to my party. We really enjoyed ourselves and felt that he cared to make our party the best. I would definitely recommend him to others and will book him again!We hosted a graduation party for my daughter and it was amazing.

Megan and Michael's Wedding
We connected with Ray at our first meeting to talk about the wedding. We absolutely Loved his personality and knew we wanted him to DJ/MC this very special day for our daughter and her fiance Michael. He was super helpful with the choosing of some of the special songs, and very available for questions leading up to the wedding. At the wedding he was professional and fun! He had everyone on the dance floor dancing. We all had a great time! I highly recommend Ray and his company for your special event.We connected with Ray at our first meeting to talk about the wedding.

Best Decision
Hiring Ray was the best and one of the most important decisions I made for the wedding. I'm a music snob and knew that the music would make or break the fun/feel of the wedding. I spoke to 7 other DJs before deciding to hire Ray. As soon as I spoke to him, I immediately liked his style and professionalism. He offered some suggestions to the timeline based on his experience and gave us some options other than the "traditional" flow. I sent him a list of requested songs and "do not play" songs and he respected all of them. In addition to ensuring the music to the ceremony was coordinated properly, he did a fantastic job with the introductions at the reception and the music was cued up perfectly. I had some very specific song choices/versions and he was able to accomodate them all! Not only were his song choices wonderful (he had everyone dancing-- young and old!) but he was an excellent emcee. All of my guests said it was the best wedding every and that's due in large part to Ray!! He made it so fun!Hiring Ray was the best and one of the most important decisions I made for the wedding.

Graduation Pool Party
The whole team was great! Ray was so easy to work with and schedule a pool party for graduation. He was flexible on dates and timing when the plans kept changing. We held the event on June 10th and Chris was our DJ. He was perfect - kept the kids entertained and reigned them in when we needed it. I would definitely hire them again.The whole team was great!

I highly recommend Ray as your DJ for your next wedding!
We searched for several local wedding DJs in the Baltimore area and were immediately impressed by how personable and straightforward Ray was. He scheduled us to first meet in order to get to know him and how he operates, and I could tell he was not only a cool guy but also was very experienced in being a DJ. He gave us advice on things to plan for that we honestly had not even thought of (things like the order of who should be saying their speeches).
During the day of the wedding, things went excellently. There were some unanticipated issues that arose (things that will always happen and will likely happen to your wedding as well!) but Ray was very good at adjusting for those issues. He made last minute adjustments easily to make the whole day smooth. I highly recommend his services and really enjoyed working with him.We searched for several local wedding DJs in the Baltimore area and were immediately impressed by how personable and straightforward Ray was.

Awesome Birthday Event with DJ
Ray was our DJ for a birthday party for us on April 2nd and he did an amazing job. It was a brunch event so he struck the perfect balance of upbeat music that created energy but didn't overwhelm the room. Everyone was really into the music selections he made too!

Stop looking! This is the only DJ you need.
From the first phone call to the last dance, Ray’s service was 5 star! We had a wide range of ages and music preferences and he had everyone on the dance floor the entire night. He guided me through the process and allowed me to customize if I chose. I ended up running out of time and put all of my trust in him… I wish I would have just done that in the beginning. He was phenomenal and his music made the entire night perfect. I received so many phone calls about him after the wedding and would recommend him to anyone at any age!From the first phone call to the last dance, Ray’s service was 5 star!

Amazing service from start to finish
I truly cannot recommend Timing is Everything highly enough. Ray was absolutely wonderful from start to finish and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we wanted. Not only was he extremely responsive, professional, and helpful, but it seemed like nothing could phase him. From helping us switch to an all Latin cocktail hour playlist a week beforehand, to allowing my husband to decide his mother-son dance song *the day of the wedding*, Ray's balance of laid back and professional will put any couple at ease during the stress of wedding planning. Seriously, just go with Timing is Everything!I truly cannot recommend Timing is Everything highly enough.

We could have danced all night.
DJ Ray is awesome. For starters, he was recommended by our venue. And then our photographers recommended him. So we met him, liked him, and hired him basically on the spot. No other interviews necessary.
When we had to push our wedding back a year (thanks, COVID!), he was totally fine with it. And then when we finally got to our wedding, he kept the party going the entire time. Our guests could not stop raving about how good the music was, how there was such a fun mix of songs, and how we had a straight up dance party, which is the only thing I wanted from our wedding in the first place!

Helpful, communicative, friendly
Ray at Timing is Everything was extremely helpful, communicative, and understanding of our particular preferences. He was also very polite and friendly in all our interactions. When our original DJ didn't work out, he almost immediately located another DJ for us who matched our vibe and understood exactly what we wanted for our event. Then he checked in on us multiple times to make sure the new DJ was a good fit and that we were satisfied. I would definitely recommend Timing is Everything to anyone looking for a wedding DJ.Ray at Timing is Everything was extremely helpful, communicative, and understanding of our particular preferences.

Perfect Day
We got married on Sept. 5, 2021 and had Lou as our DJ. He was so professional and attentive and made sure that everything went as planned. He made the night fun by carefully selecting from our play requests which song worked when. I also want to say that it was a daytime wedding and the volume was accordingly tasteful. We were able to enjoy our cocktail reception without having to yell over the music, but we could still hear it well. I would definitely recommend Timing is Everything to anyone looking for a DJ for any event!We got married on Sept. 5, 2021 and had Lou as our DJ.
