Matt was phenomenal with his work! He had a wide variety of music and didn’t let the party die down once. He has a great personality and will make the guests feel comfortable enough to break out their dance moves. 😎

Fantastic to work with! Reliable with integrity of his business intact. Plan to coordinate with Riptide in the future. If someone is looking for fun, start with his business.

I cannot thank Matt and all of the Riptide Productions team members enough for giving us a stress free, wonderful wedding experience! We were worried about choosing the music for our wedding and reception, but through consulting with Matt and filling out their detailed questionnaire, we were able to figure out and communicate exactly what we wanted. The ceremony music was done perfectly. Matt facilitated all of the events of our reception with ease and finesse, and he really kept the energy up and the party going. We chose Riptide Productions because of the clear, responsive communication between us and the team members, and we could not be happier with the result. More...

Our DJ Matt was amicable and friendly, enthusiastic and attentive to the schedule and time we set for the wedding. Matt helped set up a flow for the day, was very flexible with our preferences for songs, and did a great job with being on time and etc. My wife and I highly recommend this company and hope they do well in their business.

From booking to our big day Matt and his crew was amazing. His talent, experience, dedication and professionalism really showed in his work. He kept in touch and checked on us regularly and to me that was everything, especially planning through a pandemic. We couldn’t meet to make choices in person but he was prepared with videos and photos of all the options. On our big day I’ll just say it was “a little windy” (LOL), the inflatable photo booth was not having it. They took it down and came up with a plan b effortlessly and it turned out even better. Matt you and your crew made our day amazing and I couldn’t have wished for anything more. Thank you again from The Garrisons! More...

Riptide provides DJ and photo booth services for my wife’s birthday party and did an absolutely fantastic job! Everyone had a great time. Matt got things setup and going right on time. He opened up the evening by introducing my wife after verifying that the volume was good and then kept the party going with music that was exactly what we wanted. When people had requests he was immediately responsive. Heck, he even came up with a microphone for my wife and a friend to sing along. Would and will hire Riptide again and again! More...

Riptide Productions recently played a corporate party for me. They were the utmost in professional in how they handled scheduling the event as well as set up the day of the event. Our party was a family-friendly outing. They respectfully honored my request for fun and appropriate music while doing a great job with selections that got the group onto the dance floor. I would highly recommend them for any event. More...

My DJ was Dan Miller, with Riptide productions, and man he was great! He uses a live online planner, that made the process soooo easy, any time I wanted to change or add something, I just used the planner, and didn't have to send Dan a thousand messages. Which even if I had, i'm 100% certain he would have responded, cause he answered me any other time I did actually have to contact him. He was very personable with my and my husband as well as interacting with our guests. He helped keep us on time, and communicated with my photographer very well to keep everything running smoothly!

I’m about one year late on this review but Matt did a phenomenal job DJing our Wedding last October. He was super laid back yet very professional. He helped guide the day from the very beginning with the questionnaire he offered and then executed our intentions to a tee. We could have had the party going all night! We also used his photo booth which provided a lot of laughs after he fact while looking through pictures. He made sure we didn’t have to worry about one thing come party time. So glad we chose Riptide! More...

Matt was the DJ for our wedding last weekend and we can't get over how great he was this entire time. The music was perfect - we had an open air wedding in the middle of July and the dance floor was always alive. Matt was great to work with throughout our entire planning process, answers emails or texts quickly, and makes sure he has every detail he might need to make sure everything goes as smoothly as possible. We'd recommend him to anyone in the area. More...

The level of professionalism blew us away. He had everything right and made our wedding a night to remember.

Matt did a fantastic job as a DJ at my wedding. It was on a holiday and accommodated me even though it was super last minute as my previous DJ had cancelled on me. His responses were timely and service was excellent. I was so incredibly grateful that he agreed to dj our wedding. Thank you so much Matt! The day wouldn’t have been the same without you.

Due to some unforeseen issues, the groomsman who was supposed to be helping with the sound system told us he would not be there about 2 weeks before the wedding. I was lucky to find a DJ last minute. I contacted 2 people and Matt from RipTide Production was a lot more nicer to work with and professional. He responded right away and provided constant follow up before the event date. During the wedding, everything went smoothly. It was a pleasant experience working with Matt. More...

Riptide provided the DJ services for a wedding I attended as one of the wedding vendors in September 2018 at the Livery in downtown Lexington. Typical DJ services run the volume so loud it hurts. He had it loud enough to make a party, but not too loud. Nice clean sound too. And he might have been the best dressed man there. He had all of his speaker stands covered in clean white fabric too.
