"James...what can I say....THANK YOU a million times over!!!!
I had many good feedback and nice compliments about you. I'm thankful I found you. Ron could not believe how I found you and he couldn't have been more impressed with you. Sometimes he gets a bit skeptical about people advertising on the internet...he wasn't quite sure how you were going to "perform"...but he was definitely PLEASED! I wish we had more parties planned so we can have you again. I will definitely recommend you to anyone Iknow that will need a DJ. When When my daughter gets married...guess who I'll be calling on?????"
James (Ideal Media) was our favorite wedding vendor! To start, the price he quoted was great on a custom package. Super low key and easy to work with, he toured the reception property early on with us (even before we had it under contract!), gave advice on lighting and sound, left us an event info survey, then checked in a week before the wedding to remind us to send the survey in, and finally spoke by phone two days before to confirm all the details, right down to the correct pronunciation and order of the wedding party. We had planned on bringing our own 13 uplights, but could not, and he provided it for us with no problem. He arrived the day of, three hours before start time, and had everything set up. We loved the option to put white covers on the sound equipment and James included for free a white lighted frontboard for the DJ table, which he also brought himself. We upgraded to three 15" speakers (worth it!) and a single pipe and drape behind the sweetheart table (worth it!), as well as two party lights. We'd have been fine without the party lights, but they did spice up the dance floor. James' music selections were spot on, and he was able to mix Nigerian and American songs for our international wedding reception seamlessly. The song selections had people on the dance floor for 90 minutes nonstop. People told us later they were tired and still couldn't stop dancing! James was involved throughout the night in coordinating with the photographers and us for updated flow and timing. We couldn't have been more pleased with the service. If you're looking for a DJ who is on the mic all night or one who gets on the dance floor with you, perhaps go elsewhere, but otherwise, James is definitely your man. You won't be disappointed. Awesome experience and top value. Absolutely would use again.
If you are looking for beautiful lighting, a responsive and patient vendor, and no fuss--look no further! James was absolutely amazing to work with. We knew we wanted some uplighting for the ceremony/reception and he recommended the number of lights we needed. He also happily worked with us to adjust that number to meet our budget. He was one of our easiest vendors to work with and everything turned out beautifully. We honestly could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you James and Ideal Media for helping to make our wedding day perfect!!
James is wonderful. He did a great job for my son's event. The music was great and we all enjoyed. James is very professional and kind. James always took time to understand what we wanted. He is very responsive. I would use him over and over again. Thank you so much James for a job well done.
James with Ideal Media provided top notch service to me for my husband's 40th Birthday Party. I was extremely pleased with the DJ services we received. James was really easy to work with and flexible to my desires. He went above the required and even provided some A/V assistance to me with setting up the slide show that I wanted displayed. I 100% recommend Ideal Media for your DJ needs.
Response from Ideal Media DJ/AV - DJ HD:
Thanks Celia! It was great working with you and it's awesome to be apart of so many important occasions. I'm glad that you enjoyed everything and A/V is 2nd nature to me so it wasn't a problem at all. Thanks again I look forward to working with you again in the future!
I contacted James for en event I had in March. He provided Music and Lightning. He was great. The music was perfect and exactly what we had requested. the lightning was just what we imagined. The whole process of contacting him was very smooth. he was always available for any change and made the event a huge success that we will be repeating next year.
I used James this past weekend for my wedding at a vineyard. People are still reaching out to me about how great the music was at the reception. He was really professional throughout the entire process - I booked him really early in advance, and was bothering him with inquiries for a while and he always answered promptly. He was clear about what exactly he needed from me, and he came through on every single thing we asked of him. His rates are very affordable, and I honestly could not be happier with how the music turned out. Thanks for everything James!! :-)
We booked IMDJHD for our wedding cocktail hour and reception in DC. We needed DJ, Emcee and Lighting services and were impressed with the results of all three. It took just one sit down consultation, one phone consultation, and a few emails to nail down all the details. Our event went off without a hitch. Every request was spot on for music and he knew just what we needed to dance to without us giving much direction. Our dance floor was packed all night and the guests were blown away by how fun the entire night was. We even got a custom monogram which looked great and we had many complicated names to announce which were spot on. The DJ also kept us on schedule according to our timeline which made for a seamless classy experience.
WOW! I really lucked out with finding James of Ideal Media DJHD! What a passionate, driven individual! I originally found him through the web when I searched for DJs that were familiar with Kpop which was an important part of our music selections. From our discussions, I knew he was the right DJ for our event. He also stated he did lighting and decor which I decided to utilize. I even agreed to be his guinea pig for pipe and draping. All of his prices were completely reasonable and competitive and also did not include extra fees such as delivery. I felt like I was talking to someone who really cared about my wedding as oppose to some company trying to nickle and dime me. It was also SO convenient to plan with him about all three services (DJ, lighting, and pipe and drape) instead of going through three different vendors. Also, because I booked all of these services through him, he gave me a small discount on the final price which I deeply appreciated. I couldn't be happier with his services. The lighting, pipe and drape looked absolutely amazing (you should see the pictures, ask him!) and it was so fulfilling to see my visions come to life, especially since I plan on going into the wedding planning industry. His DJ skills also blew me away. He mixed songs into the next song seamlessly and is also a MASTER at reading the crows. He would loop songs and choruses that everyone was dancing to. At my wedding, people were doing the dougie for a really long time and he just let it play/loop until everyone had their chance to shine in the circle that was formed on the dance floor. He knew when to slow it down and speed it back up and was very familiar with all of the songs I had on my list. AMAZING! I will always seek him out when my friends/clients are planning their weddings. Make sure you ask him if he does anything before you have to find another vendor and save yourself the hassle. I look forward to working with him again in the future!
James made our wedding day very special, thanks again for a job well done!
Great guy, the kids live him. He is entertaining and engaging.
DJ HD is a totally wonderful DJ. I can't say enough great things about him. He was very responsive to me and our group of worldwide attendees. He had all song selections ready to go at our event and he played everything we wanted. Our attendees were from age 6-20 something. He knew which songs were "hot" which kept everyone on the dance floor from the moment our event started to having them beg for "just one more song" when our event was over!!!!
DJ HD was extremely prompt at our site visit and event. His play list is incredible. DJ HD is also a super nice guy!!! I would highly recommend him and wish he could be at our next event which will be in Florida!!!!
James was very professional and provided uplighting for my wedding in May along with a monogram and lighting for the cake. He was easy to work with and everything looked great!
"Hi James,
We want to “thank you”, and truly do appreciate you helping out at the very last minute. Everyone is still talking about how much fun they had and you played great music, it was exactly what we were looking for! We definitely have you in our contact list for any future events we may have.
Thanks,
Jackie
We had our 25th anniversary party on May 12, 2012. We hired DJ HD for the event. DJ HD did a wonderful job. He knew exactly what to say to get the crowd going. The program we discussed worked well and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the Soul Train line. Everyone enjoyed the music. Some guests enjoyed DJ HD's style so much that they asked who he was and how to contact him for events they may schedule in the future. Thank you DJ HD for a great time.
Response from Ideal Media DJ/AV - DJ HD:
Your welcome! Thank you Michelle and Michael and congratulations once again on your Anniversary. I look forward to crossing paths again in the future. Enjoy your Holiday!
DJ HD was the perfect DJ. I hired last minute (1 week before) and he had all my requested songs, did a great job with the space, and made my husband's 30th birthday a success. Thanks!!
Response from Ideal Media DJ/AV - DJ HD:
Thanks again Danielle for choosing me as your Karaoke DJ for your husbands surprise party! I had an awesome time with everyone and you guys really know how to party! I'm glad that your guests participated and helped make it into a great success. That was a fun night!
I was thoroughly pleased with every aspect working with James. He was quick to respond, return messages and provide insightful feedback to our needs -- even dealing with my numerous calls and texts. His ability to work within our budget was also a huge plus++!
The day of the event, I was pleased with James timelines to set-up and even more pleased with his DJ'ing. This event was for my daughter's Sweet 13 and the music was clean, trendy and kept the kids moving. I was also impressed that he kept the kids in line with appropriate dancing. In the end, the adults were even on the floor - even thought the kids hated us dancing, smiles.
I would definitely recommend using James's services for events of all ages! I had several adults ask for his information for their events. 5 Stars!
Response from Ideal Media DJ/AV - DJ HD:
Thank you Janelle! I had a great time at your daughter's party as well and I'm glad that you chose me to DJ your daughter's special day.
I hired James to do my wedding last April, he did a wonderful job! He met with me and listened to all of my needs up front. He even created a great first dance mix for my husband and I! We hired him for his dj services and uplighting, the uplighting looked beautiful and I got tons of compliments on his work! He did the music for both my ceremony and my reception, and even had every ceremonial song right on que. I definitely would recommend him!
Response from Ideal Media DJ/AV - DJ HD:
Thank you Nicole! You know I had a great time at your reception and glad that everyone else did too. Thanks for choosing me as your DJ for one of your most important days!
