Here are some of the recent, happy couples and new friends I've worked with and played for. They would love to tell you about the positive experience they had from using my services. Feel free to contact them.

    Extremely easy to work with. Unlike other deejays who spend time telling you what the "other guys" won't do for you, Frank makes sure things are done the way you want them to be done. When you talk with Frank it is apparent he does this job because he loves and appreciates music, not because he loves to hear himself talk. I had a lot of ideas concerning the music and he let me run with them which gave my reception a lot of personal touches. We consider ourselves lucky to have had the pleasure to meet and work with Frank.

    Frank was a phenomenal DJ!! At our ceremony we had a piano player arrive without a particular cord to connect to the speaker system. Frank was there (early) and had the right cord. He saved the day! The reception was fantastic! Everyone from my young cousins to my friends and my grandparents enjoyed the music and had a wonderful time! I have worked with many DJ's and entertainment companies in my past and I will never hire anyone but Frank again!

    We really appreciated you being open to our music selection and your overall knowledge of music. We were able to have the music we wanted to hear at our reception because you were willing to work with us-a sign of a dedicated professional. Thanks again for a great job!

    Frank, Chuck and I want to thank you for doing such a wonderful job deejaying at our wedding. Our guests loved the music, too, and made a point of telling us so. You went with the flow and as promised, and as we knew you would, you kept a low profile and simply added the musical touches to create a lovely atmosphere to share with our closest family and friends. It was just right. Thank you for setting up the speakers for our final dance on the portico. That was a "play it by ear"(no pun intended) issue and you set it up swiftly. It was a bit chilly, but a lovely way to end the day. Please know we are thrilled you were a part of our day. Knowing you were quietly in the background doing a splendid job gave us peace of mind. That is how EACH vendor should have performed. Thanks for everything,

    Dear Frank, Eric and I wanted to thank you for such a wonderful job you did with our wedding. You gave a very nice mix of music that everyone enjoyed. Our guests all remarked how nice it was to have the music presented the way you did that allowed them to talk and hear each other without a loud background. It gave our family and friends the opportunity to meet and see each other in a very relaxed atmosphere. That was just exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much again and I will certainly recomment you to anyone in the future.

    Frank was an absolute answer to our prayers! We knew the moment we met him that he was the DJ for our wedding! He spent so much time perfecting our song selection and made sure all our guests were accomodated. If you want a worry free wedding when it comes to music, than Frank is the perfect fit.

    Frank was great! Very professional, yet laid back! He did a great job selecting music to fit our crowd's "energy". During cocktail hour, he started off with classics and jazz. When the time was right, he kicked it up for our friends to get down! He really made sure the evening was what we wanted and worked around our vision of the day. He also did a great job moving the reception along. I didn't have to worry once about what to do. He gently guided us through the entire night, from our first dance to the farewell stroll.

    Frank, We had such a great time at our wedding reception and you did a wonderful job. We have gotten many compliments on the music! People have told us that our wedding was the most fun wedding they had been to in a long time! Thank you so much for making our special day even more special. Also, Christian's cousin is getting marriend soon and they were inquiring about our DJ, I'm going to pass on your information. Thanks again!

    Hello Frank, Just wanted to say thanks for all your help during our wedding reception. It went very smoothly and The Ravens theme introduction was execellent! Thanks.

    Frank truly made our night! Because of him, we did not worry about a thing concerning the music, announcements, dances, etc. from the beginning to the end! The flow of the entire reception was flawless, the music selections were perfect and his interactions with us and our guests were kind, respectful and highly professional. He was exactly what we wanted in a DJ and our night was wonderful because of that. He was adaptable to any change that was made throughout the night and the dance floor stayed crowded all night long, with every aged guest that was there! I want to have another party just to have a reason to hire him again!

    When I was planning our wedding last summer, the one suggestion that I heard most often was "great music will make a great wedding". After having Frank DJ our wedding I now understand how true that statement is. It was not only the great music that he played, but the outstanding service and great assistance in planning the reception. He helped create a schedule for the reception and suggested great music for all of those special moments. He really made an impression on our guests, by keeping everyone dancing and involved in every moment. He not only played the role of DJ, but also took on the role of wedding planner by keeping everything on schedule and helping to organize the different dances, cake cutting, speeches, etc. Frank helped to make our day special, memorable, and stress free!

    Frank, Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding such a wonderful experience! Todd and I just got back from our honeymoon yesterday and we are still trying to get re-adjusted to the real world. Thankfully we have wonderful wedding memories to keep forever. You did such an amazing job with the music and everyone said they had a lot of fun. One of my bridesmaids commented that you did a great job reading the crowd and keeping people dancing. I couldn't agree more! Thanks again and I will definitely recommend you to future brides!

    We first met Frank at my brother's wedding a year before we were planning our own. After the wedding, we both agreed to call Frank to talk to him about DJing our wedding. After we met with him, we laughed at the thought of having another DJ company (that we'd already met with) instead. As expected, Frank did an amazing job at our reception. All we wanted was to have a giant party and with Frank's help we were able to pull that off. Everyone had an incredible time! After the wedding, my brother and I were talking and decided that once a year someone in our family has to get married so that we can have Frank DJ the reception! Thank you Frank for everything...we couldn't have imagined our wedding without you!

I really appreciate your flexibility and relaxed attitude with absolutely everything. The music was fantastic! I heard lots of people raving about your selections. We thought the entire night was amazing, really just perfect, so thanks for your huge part in that.

    I have had the pleasure of working with Frank Marsden many times over the last several years. In addition to being extremely pleasant and easy to get along with, he is always professional...giving the clients the highest level of customer service. I have referred him to many customers, all of whom have been very grateful for the recommendation. He arrives early, sets up quickly, caters to his clients...no one could ask for anything more.

    Frank, We had the BEST time ever at our wedding reception! You were amazing and what I LOVED the most was how happy you looked. It looked like you were at a friends wedding instead of a stranger. HOW COOL IS THAT?!!! I just can't put into words how great my wedding was. Between John and Susan at The Vandiver Inn and you, I couldn't have asked for better and every one of my guests felt the same. Mark your calender for next year, I want to have an anniversary party with all the same people. Anyway, I just wanted to be sure you knew how wonderful we thought you were. You brought us so much happiness. I feel sorry for the people who never get to have you guide their party. Big Hug!

    When we were searching for DJ's, we asked everyone we knew about their experiences because word-of-mouth is much better than any research on the Internet. One evening out with friends, a college friend highly recommened Frank from her wedding several years ago. No sooner did she say his name when everyone chimed in to say he was "hands down the best DJ around" and that her wedding was so much fun because of the music. When we met with Frank, my fiance and I noticed how he was laid back yet extremely passionate about his work. His ease and style was exactly what we were looking for. Of all the variables that went into making the wedding a successful event, we had no hesitation about working with Frank. He was classy and fun without being over the top. The evening was seamless from start to finish, a perfectly orchestrated night from the announcements, to the dinner blessing, to dancing, to last dance. Looking over and seeing your conservative 89 year-old grandfather and 85 year-old great aunt dancing next to all of your college friends and younger nieces and nephews is priceless. Thank you so much Frank for making the night a huge success and being such a wonderful part of our wedding!

    Dear Frank, We wanted to express our heartfelt thanks for everything you did to make our October 13th wedding so wonderful. From our first meeting with you, James and I knew you were the perfect DJ for our event. You were willing to do anything we asked of you and more importantly you didn't do the things we asked you not to do! Somehow you were able to get to know us well enough that you played exactly the right music throughout the evening. You kept the dance floor full of singing, dancing and laughing people all night long. Not an easy thing given a group of people ranging in age from 20-80. Everyone enjoyed themselves and have continued to tell us what a wonderful job you did. Please feel free to use my name if you ever need a reference. I have already recommended you many times on The Knot, always with glowing praise. Thank you so much!

    Dear Frank, Keith and I would like to thank you for being such a wonderful DJ! The music was perfect and the reception ran very smoothly. Thanks for helping me feel relaxed by not rushing us through the night. All of our guests had a wonderful time (really!) and I know the music had a lot to do with that!

    Hi Frank, We just got back from our honeymoon and wanted to thank you for making our reception such a memorable event. We had the best time and every one of our guests had nothing but compliments about the entertainment. You went above and beyond what we expected and really gave us the best experience we could have asked for. We had so much fun dancing all night long. Thanks again for everything, we are so glad we found you!

    After we settled on a wedding date, one of the first calls we made was to Frank. He was the DJ at two of our friends weddings and we knew we had to have him at ours. It was one of the easiest and best decisions we made throughout the process. Frank was flexible about meeting times and places, has an endless list of every song we could think of and very familiar with weddings so he gave us a lot to think about. The day of the wedding, he was early, well prepared and made things flow very smoothly. He worked great with the staff at the ceremony site and reception area and everyone had a great time dancing. It was also perfect because he kept our schedule on track. I don't know how he did it but, everyone was dancing - from the young to the old - from oldies to hip hop, everyone had a great time! I can't wait to have another event that Frank can be apart of because I know he would always deliver a fabulous time! Thanks Frank!!!

    Dear Frank, Thank you so much for the critical role you played in our wedding celebration. The music was always great and, perhaps more importantly, you were an absolute joy to work with. Your completely "chill" yet professional manner really helped make our wedding a great party. Thanks again for everything and we wish you the best in all things, especially fatherhood!

    Frank, What a beautiful wedding and reception. Thank you! I can't tell you how pleased I am. You were perfectly coordinated and orchestrated. Everyone had such a great time, especially me! I haven't let loose like that since I was a teenager. And not just me, it was so great to see my family and friends coming to the dance floor. You had us out there shaking our booties. You created an atmosphere that enabled us to cut loose and have a blast. We had a splendid, unforgettable wedding, in no small part because of your professionalism, experience, and familiarity with The Vandiver Inn. You all created a seamless, elegant wedding and reception that left me worry-free and at liberty to just enjoy myself. Thanks again.
