John and I didn't want a DJ that screamed cheesy, and we also didn't want someone who was going to talk and talk all night. Ronnie was exactly what we were looking for. We didn't want a lot of common reception stuff (no entrance, no first dance, no parent dances, no bouquet toss) and Ronnie was super cool with that. He made sure to coordinate with both Martha and our photographers what our timeline was so that photo opportunities wouldn't be missed and always returned my emails or phone calls right away during the planning process. He was also very helpful a day or 2 before the wedding when I was still struggling with music for the bridal party to walk in to. He had a great suggestion for us, and it worked out well. Several of our guests raved about how great the music was, and that he did a phenomenal job. The music during dinner was at a perfect volume, I didn't have to shout to talk to guests. There were a few people who thought the music was too loud once the dancing started, but that might have been a result of the layout (2 tables were close to the speakers) and not the DJ.

Musically yours gave us just what we wanted and asked for. He was able to take our wedding which didnt really have a set schedule and could have been a bit confusing and was able to take control and set the flow for the whole night. What we all really enjoyed was how great he was at reading the crowd. There wasn't a minute the dance floor was not packed with people smiling and having a great time. Ronnie is truly amazing at what he does. I felt completely comfortable putting all the control in his hands and knowing it would be flawless. He gave me a new modern perspective of what a DJ is. Could not have asked for more and cant wait for more events in our life to have him apart of it again!

The best DJ’s we’ve ever had. In previous years the kids always left early, Ronnie was able to hold 650 students on the dance floor all night right down to the very last song. Dave did an amazing job DJ’ing downstairs offering different styles of music. The kids said they felt like they were in a club being able to bounce around to different rooms! Professionals all the way around. Highly recommend.!

I think they were danced out from Prom! But it always helps to have great music playing in the background. You guys were a pleasure to work with too! And the photographer was great as well. The kids had fun posing :) We would recommend you to others in a heartbeat! Thank you for helping JBHS make a Post Prom the kids will never forget!

Name: Steve& Gosha Evanchik Date Of Event: 4/20/13 Event Type: Wedding Venue: The Stonehedge Inn – Ridgefield, CT Rate: (1-10/Best) 11! Comments: My fiancé and I were looking for someone to provide musical entertainment at our wedding. Time was running short when I came across Ronnie Mazal from Musically Yours while doing a web search. Upon reading the reviews on the web (over 30), I was surprised by the consistency of great accolades from the individuals who had hired Ronnie for their event. I thought to myself either Ronnie was something special or he had a lot of relatives writing reviews. After meeting Ronnie and based on the job he did at our wedding, I can confirm that Ronnie is in fact something special. We met with Ronnie a few weeks before our ceremony. I was expecting to discuss what songs would be played, but instead Ronnie choreographed our entire wedding day from the moment we arrived until the goodbyes. Ronnie shared many ideas totally out of the realm of providing musical entertainment. After already being impressed by Ronnie’s professionalism during our pre wedding meetings, he saved the best for the day of the wedding. Ronnie is an expert at reading the crowd. He had tables singing songs and the dance floor was crowded for the entire 5 hour Reception. My wedding day will be remembered as a great time by all in no small part due to Ronnie. If my recommendation seems too good to be true, hire Ronnie and you will find yourself writing a review very similar to mine and the numerous others you will find on the web. Ronnie has my number. Feel free to get it from him and give me a call with any questions. -Steve Evanchik- Name: Christy DeSantis Date Of Event: 3/23/13 Event Type: House Party Venue: Residence – Fairfield, CT Rate: (1-10/Best) 10 Comments: Ronnie was terrific.

Who would I call? Of course Ronnie from Musically Yours! He had just DJ'd my own 40th Birthday Party 6 months ago and we wouldn't use anyone else. I called Ronnie and he himself was booked for another event, but he was able to provide us with another amazingly talented DJ - Gerry. He was fantastic! Gerry got the party started with all the right music and set the tone for the night. He was extremely professional. We would gladly use Gerry again. You just can't go wrong with Musically Yours!

Name: Nick & Brenna Ortner Date Of Event: 9/22/12 Event Type: Wedding Venue: The Waterview – Monroe, CT Rate: (1-10/Best) 10 Comments: Ronnie is the classiest DJ/guy I have ever encountered. He is kind, talented at reading a crowd, sincere, and calmed me down a week before my wedding when I was a mess. I am extremely picky and organized and Ronnie exceeded my expectations. He did both my ceremony & reception music and it was flawless. My guests partied until 1am and cheered for ‘one last song!’ which of course Ronnie obliged for us. I could not have been happier with him and HIGHLY recommend him. Again, looking for a classy DJ, he is your guy. Name: Raja & Chantal Polineni Date Of Event: 9/14/12 Event Type: Wedding Venue: Keeler Tavern – Ridgefield, CT Rate: (1-10/Best) 9 Comments: Great DJ, very professional, was able to intuitively figure out what should be played and what shouldn't and feel people's enthusiasm or lack of it as well as people's tastes; was able to keep everyone energized even though at times he was playing to a hard crowd. Also it was great for us when you made the wedding party dance for half of the song and that way the blame wasn't on us. Thanks so much!! -Chantal and Raja
