2025Weddings | DJ Mike On The Mic

Congrats! You said, “YES!” Now say, “I do” want to learn about throwing a great reception!

Your wedding ceremony is a moment dedicated to uniting with your true love. Your wedding reception is your first opportunity as a married couple to host a beautiful, classy, and fun celebration for yourselves, your families, and your friends. Whether you envision an intimate, relaxed gathering or an upscale, lively party, allow me to assist you in making an unforgettable first impression.

I love seeing family and friends come together to celebrate the love and happiness shared by two people. That’s why, I’ll be there beaming with enthusiasm and energy, fully committed to making sure your wedding is as special and meaningful as you imagine it to be.

Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime occasion, with no opportunities for a redo. I understand that planning this significant day can be both time-consuming and stressful. But don’t worry! As DJ Mike On The Mic, I take on multiple roles to help create an extraordinary party.

During the planning stages, I’ll:

help you connect with venues, caterers, decorators, photographers, videographers, and other great vendors
determine which options will be best to add to your celebration.
give you access to online planning tools.
craft a personalized soundtrack, offering music suggestions drawn from my extensive music knowledge.
develop a seamless timeline.

On the day of your event, I’ll:

create a welcoming atmosphere that highlights the joy and unity of your newly combined families.
inform, engage, and encourage your crew to have fun.
keep everyone dancing and singing throughout your event.
play music at a reasonable volume, allowing guests to engage in conversation while enjoying a lively dance floor behind them.
bring smiles to your family and friends.

Mike is the best!

“He is involved with the entire process from start to finish. He helps coordinate your time line, offers suggestions for music and makes sure everyone is having a good time throughout the night. He works well with other vendors ensuring that your day is perfect. He did a great job – our dance floor was full the entire night. We received a lot of compliments about him.”

– Angie and Jason D.,
Tabrizi’s Restaurant, Baltimore, MD

Professional and helpful

“Michael Pachino is amazing!!! Michael was the most professional and helpful DJ. He made sure that no one was sitting down the entire time! He promptly answered the plethora of e-mails that I would send him. All of our friends, and even the catering staff, came up to me at the end of the night to say it was the most fun wedding/party they had ever been to“

– Davina and Micah K.
Beth El Congregation, Baltimore, MD

Easy to talk to

“Mike was thorough in meeting us. Mike did the sound and music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner & reception. In all facets he exceeded any expectations we had– and they were high to begin with. He transitioned from a polka to a modern dance song seamlessly. Those that were musicians or djs themselves all complimented us on Mike.”

– Jen and Bob
Gertrude’s, Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore

You get what you pay for

“Now that the wedding is over I have no regrets spending a little more than I had 1st planned on for the dj. He offered helpful suggestions along the way. He had everything under control. He made sure we followed the time line and kept everything flowing nicely. I would HIGHLY recommend working with him. This is a true case of “you get what you pay for.”

“There wasn’t any little bump at all during the ceremony or reception. We had people dancing at every possible moment of the wedding. He seriously made the party! Simply put, you can’t go wrong!!”

– Lauren and Jake H., The Westin Hotel Annapolis, Annapolis, MD

Your guests will hear soothing music as they await the beginning of your wedding ceremony. Your officiant will address the audience using a wireless handheld or lavalier microphone.

During the cocktail hour, socialize with your guests while listening to your favorite songs played at a pleasant volume.

Soft music will enhance the dining experience.

I’ll gradually raise the volume (without being overwhelming) to encourage your family and friends to get on the dance floor.

“The music was great – my feet were killing me at the end of the night; so many people made it out onto the dance floor which is a definite testament to you.”

– Beth and Jason C., The Crystal Room at Ruth’s Chris, Pikesville, MD
