{Wedding Wire Review} Christine and Yordan

Christine and Yordan had a fun wedding at the Washington Crossing Inn.


"We had a very positive experience with Synergetic. We ended up going with Mike as our DJ. Mike was young, easy-going, and a very friendly and easy person to work with. We requested him because he had worked on other intercultural weddings before. He was outstanding, considering the few twists we had to make his life more complicated.


The week of the wedding, Mike spoke with us in a lengthy conversation about the order and flow of how the reception would be. Because we both have families from Europe, we had a variety of people (and many non-Americans) in our bridal party. Mike practiced over and over again how to pronounce peoples' names correctly. In the end, he did not mess up at all when he announced everyone as they entered the reception.


At our wedding, we had professional Bulgarian dancers perform and lead the guests in dancing. Mike worked with us and the dancers very well to coordinate the music and the flow of the entire evening. Mike was very sensitive to our needs ... we had quite a bit of European techno and pop hits that we wanted played. He played most of them throughout the evening; he also included a nice balance of classic songs that everyone could enjoy - our dance floor was NEVER empty the entire evening (no joke).


He started out the night with the pass-a-dollar game ... we had never heard of that before, but it turned out to be a real hit with the guests and set the mood for a fun night. Mike always talked to either my husband or I during the reception to see how the timing was going and if there was anything else we needed. We did other activities during the evening, such as the Anniversary Dance, bouquet toss, garter, and cutting the cake.


Many guests commented to us how fun our DJ was at our reception. My husband and I agree that Mike was one of our top vendors ... Synergetic was professional (always communicated with us in a timely fashion through e-mail or phone). One thing to be aware of is that it is kind of difficult to get ahold of your DJ directly ... it always has to be taken care of through the people working in the office. Though we did talk with Mike months before our wedding, we were a little nervous that we didn't get to talk to him again until the week of the wedding.


I highly recommend Synergetic, and specifically, Mike. He has a great attitude, is extremely flexible, and was not over the top like many other DJ's at weddings can be." -Christine and Yordan


Thank you so much Christine and Yordan! We truly appreciate your kind words and I know they mean a lot to Mike. We wish you all the best!

{Synergetic Gives Back} Camp Xperience

Recently, Mike, one of our DJs, volunteered for the second summer in a row at Camp Xperience.


"This was my second summer volunteering at Camp Xperience (a non profit organization designed to build confidence & strong bonds between children struggling with childhood obesity). Last summer as a camp counselor I was there on a daily basis to encourage and reinforce each camper to keep a positive outlook throughout the week. This summer, with Synergetics support, I volunteered to provide sound and entertainment for the final two nights of camp. Due to the blistering heat and inevitable home sickness the camp morale was at an all time low when I arrived. At that time I knew exactly how to turn the night around. I set up a music system and within minutes every camper was either singing, dancing, or just standing there in awe. The two nights at camp went by so fast because the staff and campers make it such a fun atmosphere to be a part of. I am very grateful for having had the opportunity to make a difference in these children's lives." -Mike

We also received this wonderful letter from George Datto, the Executive Director at Camp Xperience.

Dear Synergistic Sounds,
We would like to thank you for having Mike Keleher DJ our dance party and campfire at our
summer camp this year. The kids loved it! What an experience! Mike was very professional and
had all the music that made both nights special for the kids. We are most grateful to Synergetic
Sounds in making this possible for our campers. You help us reach our mission of providing this
experience to all kids regardless of their family’s ability to pay. If there is anything we can do in
return, please let us know. We hope that you will continue to make this an important part of the
week at Camp Xperience.
Sincerely,
George Datto
Executive Director, Camp Xperience



We're so glad we were able to add to the campers experience! We have always said how important we feel it is to give back and we will continue to do so at every opportunity we can.
