Aleks Mac, One More Song. Fellow celebrant, DJ and MC.“Planning a wedding can be daunting but one of the best decisions we made was in having John as our celebrant/MC/DJ. There was zero anxiety around communication. John was professional, generous with his time and knowledge, always easy to reach. The ceremony was beautiful and the dance floor was pumping all night! Everyone had a great time.”
“John was approachable, funny, caring and so responsive through the whole process. On our big day he was beyond amazing. He guided us through the ceremony, read the room, matched our vibe and then kept the party going all night perfectly. A number of our guests asked how long we'd been friends with John because the ceremony and music were just so perfectly us.”
“John was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is genuinely kind and fun, and brings such great energy. His communication is fantastic, he always responds so quickly. The ceremony he created was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. As the MC, he kept the night running smoothly, and as a DJ he absolutely delivered.”
“As a fellow celebrant, DJ and MC, I couldn't recommend John enough. He's super talented and so diligent and reliable. If you book him, you will be extremely well looked after and have a great day. No matter what happens, he's got your back.”
