Josh DJ’d our wedding in early June. Working with Josh leading up to the wedding it was clear he was a very organized and experienced professional. He had a great portal that allowed us to create “preferred” songs for cocktail hour and dancing. We had a very detailed meeting before the wedding that made us very confident in him. At the wedding, Josh figured out how to add on an extra hands free microphone we had brought last minute for our officiant as well as a wireless mic for us to say our vows. Josh also went above and beyond and was willing to MC a trivia game for us (which we did in lieu of speeches) which ended up being so fun! During the dance party, Josh was very in tune to the vibe of our guests and played the perfect songs (even outside of our requested songs) and made our dance party the most fun! We had very briefly considered just making a playlist instead of hiring a DJ but Josh picked excellent songs based on the atmosphere of the crowd (which a playlist obviously can’t do) making it so much more fun. Josh also was essential in managing the microphones and sound for the ceremony and the overall flow of the wedding. Hiring a professional DJ, and more specifically Josh, allowed us to relax and not worry about those details on our wedding day. Josh also took a ton of pictures and videos for us throughout the night and sent them to us after the wedding! This was such a special touch and so great to have more photos while we wait for the photos from our photographer. We are so happy with how our wedding turned out and would absolutely hire Josh again! More...

I booked Josh to dj at my wedding. He was very professional and organized. We booked him with short notice and he was able to accommodate us. He showed up when he said he would, he set up promptly and was extremely easy and enjoyable to work with. His experience in his field really shows and I would love to get married again and have him there. It was that good a time! More...

Josh was our wedding DJ/MC and the unsung hero of the night.  He is a fantastic master of ceremonies and we couldn't have been more happy to have him.  He kept us on time, made the night fun, and saved us from awkward durations.  He customized every song to our taste and played everything in perfect time.  He picked up the timeline when our day of coordinator disappeared - crisis averted.  He hand crafted some of my favorite moments like the group hug that got everyone dancing.  We are so blessed to have gotten to share our special day with such a talented professional DJ.  We can't thank him enough.  It's safe to say Josh won't skip a beat.

Let's just say I didn't even get to MEET my DJ until the day of because of a crazy schedule (and me being awful about having to stick to schedules). Josh was at my site early, made it easy for us to add and take off songs, as well as taking the songs we added and playing songs that we liked based off of what was added to his website. He had a huge smile on his face the entire time, MC'd, and kept the party going all the way up until the very last song. Thank you so much for everything! More...

Now when I say Josh had the party going all night, I 100% mean exactly that. Whenever I tried to sit for water a song I just HAD to dance to would come on again. He kept the feeling high energy and was constantly checking in with my wife and I to make sure that things were going the way we wanted to and he would let us know before any transition happened since neither of us had any sense of what time it was. Josh took all of our suggestions for songs and then created a crazy high energy list to match what we like and he captured us perfectly. He had us twerking and twirling until the very last song. I couldn't thank you enough for all that you did for us, thank you a million times over! More...

Josh has such a great, confident but kind energy, which is the exact kind of energy I wanted at my wedding. He's very flexible and completely caters the event to what your vision is, and I could not recommend him enough!

As a wedding coordinator, I have high standards when it comes to DJs since they are the voice and face of the event. Josh makes that cut for sure! We had the honor of working with him a few months ago and he was early to arrive, very calm and professional (which was very much appreciated on this particular event that was rained on and every plan had to be adjusted on the fly), and always thinking one step ahead! My team is always thinking ahead too, but I was always happily surprised during the event to see him prepared for everything even before we were! Not to mention, he did not hesitate to dive in and help when another vendor did not pull their weight and we had to improvise and team up with all hands on deck to get the room ready in time. Can't wait to work with him again soon! Thanks Josh! More...

Josh was absolutely amazing DJ and MC. We would not have asked for a more experienced, responsive, flexible, knowledgeable, patient DJ. From the first interaction, Josh made us feel as he is there to help us make our experience fun and pleasant and that's exactly what he did!!! After the first meeting, my now husband said how impressed he was with Josh's knowledge of music and experience and the time he spend getting to know us as a couple and working with us on the songs we wanted as well as how we wanted the reception to be led. All the way through the end of our event, Josh has been amazing throughout!! Our guests loved the music he played and how he ran the entire reception!! Josh was so patient with us, especially since we were so very last minute with picking our wedding songs and deciding on the timeline, toasts, etc. I wouldn't have asked for a better experience!! Even though Josh was on the more expensive side then the other DJs we got quotes from and we were on the tight budget, we decided to go with Josh and it was definitely worth the investment!! We are totally recommending Josh to anyone who needs a great DJ and MC!!!
Our day was absolutely amazing and flawless!!! Thank you Josh, so very much!! You are simply the Best!!!

I have been to numerous weddings in my life, (and officiated at several), however this wedding was perfected because of Josh. The ladies that were "supposed" to direct were of little use;Josh noticed that (without anyone saying a thing) and basically saved the day. Not only did he go above and beyond; he provided special,personal touches throughout the occasion I had never seen before.
He had such a unique, and personable, manner about him that it felt as if he were a friend of the family, without becoming invasive to our intimate moments.
'Music on the Move' not only provided the most excellent service, they gave a most precious gift in the end.(Which I will not reveal!!! Brought tears to our eyes)...Thank you so much for making this very special day, absolutely incredible. God Bless you in your venture to California.

I had attended multiple wedding expos prior to m big day. I was exhausted to meet dj after dj that was cheesy or lacked a certain X factor I was searching so desparetely for. .. Then I met Josh! You will not regret making the decision to go with him as your DJ/MC .. Take it from me- I go about 100 miles a minute and Josh had no problem keeping up, as well as adapting to any and all las minute changes I made. All the while keeping me grounded and secured that everything would go off without a hitch.. I can't imagine having anyone else in charge of such an important part of our big day. Thanks Josh!!!!

Josh was great. He was organized, on time, and flexible. He kept all of our Vendors in the loop leading up to our wedding day, and even reached out to my Florist regarding centerpiece giveaways when I didn't have the time to do so. Josh provided everything we wanted throughout our ceremony and reception, kept us relaxed and informed at all times, and checked in with us to make sure we heard the music we wanted for the last 30 minutes of our reception. He's a really great guy and we definitely recommend his services. More...

Joshua was an absolute pleasure to work with. My now husband and I have hectic and opposite schedules and Josh was very flexible in making appointments. He was also always a quick text or call away and always happy to answer my many questions.
Josh made our wedding ceremony and reception so smooth and fun! A good DJ is pivotal to a fun reception and he kept the party going. He also had a lot of creative ideas but was also willing to be as hands on or off as we wanted him to be.

I just want to start out by saying thank you Josh for making our Wedding that much more special. When it comes to the DJ that is a very important part of planning a Wedding. Your DJ will either make it or break it! And Josh when above and beyond to make it:) This is my 3rd time hiring these guys for Weddings. (Not all my weddings LOL) And I would highly recommend Josh. If you are looking to have a great memorable Wedding then this is your man! Thank you again Josh for all your hard work and dedication.
Sincerely,
Michelle, Justin and of course Gianni Deane:)
