“Rich was incredible! Not only did he know what and when to play, he was ‘THE master’ of ceremony – making the evening about us (bride and groom) and kept the evening flowing! He was so helpful in organizing our time (we had no idea about timelines!) as well. Offering an online planning sheet with links to songs, streamlining our selections. We also met a week prior to our wedding, so we could discuss our ideas, insuring we were on the same page. He knew exactly what we wanted and he delivered! Side note… Rich has the perfect radio voice – adding a fun energy to the night! Thank you Rich, you are a rock star!! ” -Michele Schiedler & Jason Fletcher
