Reviews
“Dave Menzo, did an outstanding job at my daughter's wedding.
He was excellent with all the music, read the crowd, and every one was so complimentary. My 2 year-old grandson couldn't stop dancing!”
“Our DJ, Dave Menzo, was also great to work with!
He spent over an hour with us on the phone to go over our vision for the reception music and made sure he knew what type of music we liked. The music turned out great and Dave got a lot of people dancing!”
“…Dave Menzo who delivered perfectly!
Our guests absolutely loved every minute of the ceremony accompaniments as well as the reception hits!”
“We really wanted to make sure we had a good venue, good food, and a good DJ.
We ended up with an AMAZING all of the above and I'm so grateful for … Dave Menzo, our DJ…”
I’m Dave. I’ve been making music since 2001, and my favourite stage isn’t a club or a festival. It’s a wedding reception, at the moment a room full of guests becomes one big party.
Making records taught me how a song is built: where it lifts, where it breathes, where it needs to land. I plan your night the same way, with you, song by song: your must-plays, your do-not-plays and the people who’ll be in the room.
A wedding is the only show where the audience is family. The hush before the processional, a toast that lands, the first song after dinner that pulls everyone out of their seats: I love being the one who holds that rhythm. And when you write in, you’ll hear back from me.
Featured wedding
A ceremony by the pond, cocktails on the lawn, then dinner and dancing in the hall, with Dave on guitar, on the microphone and at the decks all day.

“Dave is the end-to-end entertainment man.”
If I wanted to count the number of people who went out of their way to rave about how awesome Dave was at our wedding, I'd run out of fingers and toes.
Never an awkward moment or stall, just seamlessly moving from segment to segment of the wedding.
I would recommend him 100 times out of 100 to anyone looking.
If I wanted to count the number of people who went out of their way to rave about how awesome Dave was at our wedding, I'd run out of fingers and toes. He was exceptional, from the live acoustic guitar at our ceremony, to singing and putting an amazing vibe on for our lawn cocktail hour, to MC-ing and making every aspect of our wedding dinner run like clockwork, and finally absolutely ROCKING the dance floor all night long. Dave is the end-to-end entertainment man.
He has such an amazing feel for an event. His musical talents are absolutely evident, but I think a lot of people underestimate how important it is to have someone who is an incredible MC that can guide guests through the night. Dave is phenomenal at this. Never an awkward moment or stall, just seamlessly moving from segment to segment of the wedding.
I would recommend him 100 times out of 100 to anyone looking. He's also an amazing person to work with. Always down to hop on the phone or text, workshop different ideas, and do something that's tailored to you. Every conversation with Dave was like talking to an old friend who is as excited for your wedding as you are. Just go with Dave, you won’t regret it.
