I cant put into words just how amazing he was. Michael showed up early and worked so beautifully with all of our vendors to ensure everyone was aligned. We didnt have a formal sit down dinner, so Michael played hours on end and kept the party going. It was the best night of my life and my friends cant stop raving about the best dance party ever. Highly recommend - dont look anywhere else!

Michael Kane was a great DJ! Michael was great to work with during the planning process and created a great playlist off of our requested songs. He really captured the vibe we were going for at every stage of our wedding. The reception was amazing and had people dancing the whole night. A lot of our guests have commented on how much they loved the music.

Paul was exceptional. My wife and I were so excited to meet him in person and he didn�t disappoint!! Everything was exciting and the dancing was non stop which is exactly what we asked for! Paul and his assistant gave us amazing lighting and sound and my family was truly blown away by his professionalism. We strongly recommend using Paul for your event but if you�re lucky enough to be tying the knot you HAVE to use him. Everyone still tells me how sore their legs are from dancing the night away. At one point Paul played a special mummers song for my 86 year old grandmother who got up and strutted her way across the dance floor as we watched with joy!! Only Silversound can pull that off. And their assistant took amazing pictures for us as well. Our favorite is the last picture of the night with everyone crowded behind us on the dance floor and Paul was right there next to us! Thanks again for a night we�ll never forget!!

"Ive never seen so many tables empty." "The dancefloor was full the entire night!" "Best wedding Ive ever been to." These are just three of the comments that our guests used to summarize our reception and my experience with Silver Sound and DJ Paul Evans. Silver Sound made the entertainment portion of our event so easy! After an initial meeting, where we were wowed by Paul Evans experience and repertoire, we were sent a site where we could add songs to playlists (for Cocktail Hour and Reception), fill in pertinent logistic information, and contact our DJ and the company for any and all questions. Phil spent weeks perfecting the Cocktail Hour playlist, while we chose to leave the reception and dancing to the expert. And Paul Evans proved to be an expert! Many of our guests opted to skip their salad course and move to the dancefloor, where they remained for the entire evening. Paul Evans was aptly able to read the room and found the perfect next song to ensure that people stayed dancing. He also used his discretion to take requests from guests (denying the slower country songs but opting for the more upbeat Latin songs like Despacito and some Pitbull). He played "Sweet Caroline" for me and my Maid of Honor (named Caroline), which my Boston family loved, and he played a sweet slow song in honor of both sets of grandparents who were both celebrating their 60th anniversary. These sincere and unique touches demonstrate how qualified Paul Evans is! Silver Sound also provided our uplighting, which turned our ballroom into my dream wedding reception. He was able to adjust the lights remotely and to our preference. I highly recommend the uplights! My experience with Silver Sound and DJ Paul Evans especially, has been nothing short of spectacular. Best wedding ever!

The dance floor was packed the whole night (even the shyest of folks couldnt resist!). Walt did a great job reading the crowd and responding to what we liked. In particular, he ended the night on the perfect song - something my husband and I will always remember. I HIGHLY recommend working with him!

Steve was extremely professional and very friendly. He is a down to earth guy and didnt act like your typical vendor. He communicated every detail throughout the event to make sure we were satisfied with his service. I received so many compliments from all of our employees, he was an excellent DJ! He had everyone up and dancing all night, even the employees who are usually shy. :) I would definitely use his services again and recommend him to others. Thank you so much for making our holiday party a night to remember!

I wish there was an option "Excellent!" option for DJ Kev! He was prompt, professional and was so flexible with our requests that we are contemplating another event just so that we could use his services again! I would absolutely recommend him as a true professional and a real asset to any event!

We specifically chose Steve because he was the DJ at a friends wedding and we thought he was great. He was awesome at our wedding as well! Having a good DJ is way more than playing good songs and Steve does an amazing job on the mic. I would recommend Steve for anyones wedding, he is great!

Our guests raved about the music and declared that it was the best wedding ever. Michael managed the music at our small wedding in a way that set the tone for each aspect of the wedding. My groom and I met in the 80s and the music was spot on! Guests would call out I love this song... Any special requests were handled in a professional manner! Bottom line - Michael Kane was awesome!!!

People were legitimately mad that the reception was over... because of the music! Enough said! Everyone had a great time, and my ceremony and reception music were executed flawlessly. Thank you SO much! Any DJ that can get the party going on a Sunday afternoon rocks. Job well done!
