Andrew S. Sent on 08/19/2020Livestream of our Ceremony + Reception
We had Richard and the AVSD team help us produce a livestream of our wedding because much of our family was unable to travel in due to the COVID-19 situation. With his help we were able to get an easy, straightforward, and high quality stream to all of our family without needing them to download software or create any logins. They had multiple cameras and mics so it looked professionally produced and everyone could see/hear what was going on. They also stayed for the reception and went around interviewing guest and documenting details It worked so well and we got a copy of the recording afterwards which was so fun to watch. I highly recommend anyone who is doing a smaller or virtual wedding use AVSD to make it accessible via stream. -
User2376960 Sent on 10/19/2015Richard was terrific!! We had a night wedding at the Dallas Arboretum and he did a wonderful job making the place look magical but also providing enough lighting for our photos. There were comments like "you're wedding looks like a magazine wedding," that we heard throughout the night. His experience definitely showed by the details of our wedding and his skills as a DJ were second to none. He even found a unique song for me to walk down the aisle to that brought tears to my eyes. Very happy with our experience!! -
User2185984 Sent on 06/18/2015We cannot recommend AVS Day (& specifically Aaron as a DJ) enough!! Aaron's professionalism & thoroughness made the whole experience so easy & left one less thing for us to worry about the day of. I cannot emphasize enough how much we appreciated him throughout the whole process. The night of our outdoor reception there was a HUGE storm that threw all our planning out the window & he rolled with it all seamlessly, ensuring that everyone had a great night.
Richard was great to work with & handled the lighting which was nothing short of enchanting. Could not be happier with our experience with AVS Day! -
User2086780 Sent on 04/03/2015I have worked with Richard and his team before, so it's no wonder I didn't search for my wedding DJ and entertainer. He's so much more than a DJ. Here's the Top 10 reasons, A Very Special Day was my first choice and why I will always use Richard in the future...
1) HE'S MORE LIKE A HOST/EMCEE. AVSD engages folks and makes your guests laugh - Even the stale Aunt that you didn't want to invite. I have seen ten, too many, DJ's claim to be great and have seen all of them come off as unprofessional, unknowledgeable and...lame. This crew should be categorized as a "HOST." The music is just bonus.
2) YOUR WEDDING WILL NOT BE PERFECT. Sorry to break it to you. Crap happens. But, with Richard, he'll roll with the punches and you'll wonder why he didn't charge you double. Wedding mascot shows up two hours early? Richard has it covered. He reacted calmly and quickly -- And I didn't have a wedding planner so it was just me and him. He handled the change-up like a pro.
3) HE WILL TELL YOU THINGS YOU FORGOT ABOUT. Did you know that your DJ/Emcee/Entertainer/Host will also keep you on point with wedding etiquette? Richard OWNS his events and there were several times I thought what a waste it would be to have a day-of or wedding day coordinator because I had him. If you DO have a wedding day coordinator, you'll probably coast into your honeymoon even more easily. Kudos for you. Don't have that? Call Richard, you'll be fine. :)
4) Richard "plays well" with ALL vendors. In fact, my videographer and photographer kept going to and working with him. He even came up with an idea I'd never seen before to keep my guests from waiting in line -- and having fun -- while food was being served. Priceless.
If you have specific questions, I'm happy to have you email me direct at jrbronze@gmail.com and I will personally address specifics on why he's the only choice when it comes to wedding entertainment. Seriously, email me.
AVSD is dynamite!! -
User1995825 Sent on 01/04/2015Richard and his team are amazing. They did the lighting, sound, videography, balloon drop and slow motion video lounge for our wedding. He was so flexible and helpful all night. The lighting was perfectly done and as a videographer, he was EVERYWHERE! He didn't miss a single thing. The slow motion video lounge was the biggest hit of the wedding. It added the perfect amount of fun and people were in it all night! It's definitly worth it. It is so fun to see all the guests, young and old, dancing around and having a blast! I would recommend AVSD to everyone! -

Kristina Sent on 01/30/2015Everything was great! From our first meeting to the last dance, Aaron was very professional, comforting, and reassuring. He knew exactly how to get a feel for the crowd, and used a mixture of our favorite music styles to bring everyone out to the dance floor. Also, we didn't give him too many specific details about what to play, because we trusted his judgement as a professional disc jockey. All we told him was a few of our favorite artists and genres, and throughout the evening, Andrew and I kept finding ourselves looking at each other when one of our favorite songs began to play... somehow Aaron knew exactly what songs were meaningful in our relationship. A+++++++ -
User1610324 Sent on 05/07/2014Richard and company at AVSD were really great! We hired Richard to do music for our ceremony and reception, videography, and also help filming a special welcome video that was played prior to the wedding party entrance at our reception. Richard definitely has a passion for what he does, he is a good listener, and always took the time to make sure every detail was covered at all of our meetings. Thanks AVSD!

Amy Sent on 06/14/2014I booked A VSDay for my DJ, videography, lighting, flowers, and green screen. Richard and the team made me feel at ease on my big day. Everything was taken care of and the flowers by Sonia were absolutely amazing. The videography also turned out just like how I wanted. Everyone had a great time at our wedding with Richard entertaining the guests with the interactive game we devised. Thanks A VSDay Team! -

Dawn Sent on 11/11/2013I was very happy with the services A Very Special Day provided! My up lighting and gobo were absolutely beautiful! It really gave my reception the wow factor! Denisha Mathews and Richard were very nice and helpful! They made sure I got exactly what I wanted and answered all the questions I had. They made me feel like no question was a dumb one which is very important for a bride who has a million other things running through her head! -

Kristin Sent on 07/28/2013Oh...where do I start? Shawn is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! He made the ceremony music EXACTLY how I asked....everything went perfectly that was within his control...he is an awesome dj and anyone would be lucky to have him do their wedding/reception! Thank you sooooo much Shawn! -
User1252711 Sent on 07/22/2013Richard and his team really saved the day with our videographer mess. Our original videographer was arrested a couple of months prior to the wedding. Thanks to our planner contacting Richard, Richard agreed to be our videographer with a similar package for the amount that we had remaining for the original videographer (which was less than half of what they typically charge for that kind of package). Not only that, then Richard went above and beyond and added videographers for our wedding and edited these beautiful videos for my husband and I. On top of that, when my husband's vows weren't audible because of wind issues, they invited us into their studio to redo his vows and matched up the vows so that we wouldn't miss them. Absolutely a fantastic group of people.
