Tor, I'm sure you already know that you are lucky to have Heath as a part of your team, but I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how great he was DJ'ing our wedding reception on 8/13/16.
He did an absolutely fantastic job. He was energetic, kind, entertaining, easy-going, well-dressed, professional, and kept everything running smoothly. He helped everyone have a great time and totally exceeded our expectations.
What I found to be most special about having Heath as our DJ was how personable he was. He called my family and wedding party by name after I only briefly pointed out who everyone was. He gave shout outs to the many people who helped make our wedding happen, naming each person - and that was totally his own doing and idea. This is what impressed me most about him.
We were 100% satisfied with his work, and will absolutely come to you guys again in the future, as well as recommend you to our friends and family. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Tor, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for being our DJ for the wedding! Everyone really enjoyed themselves. I couldn't have asked for a better night. You did a great job and I will definitely recommend you in the future to people. Thanks again for everything! :)

Erin and I just wanted to say thank you again so much for helping to make our big day so special. As I've been talking with our family and friends, everyone has been saying just how spectacular you were, and how you made the reception so lively and fun. We really appreciate just how much attention and energy you put into our wedding, and everything you did to help make the day such a success!

Best,
Josh and Erin

I wanted to applaud Tor on his entertaining approach to Thursday Night Trivia and Friday night 'Name That Tune' at the Bellefonte Legion. Tor has a great playlist and comes thoroughly prepared for the night's activities. For anyone who has not seen him in action, much of the entertainment occurs with Tor at the microphone; in between songs; and between trivia questions. For his show within a show, Tor combines his distinctive sense of humor, his great stage presence, and his (almost as good as he thinks it is) singing voice to engage everyone in the room. The entertainment is always energetic, and humor is a constant overriding theme, often at the expense of someone in the room. I will continue to look forward to those nights.
Thanks Tor!

Hello Tor,
I just wanted to thank you for being a part of our wedding day on October 13, and for making the day special. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the reception, particularly the music you played and your energy throughout the evening. Everything went perfectly, and we just wanted to thank you for doing such a tremendous job--we could not have asked for more.
We wish you the best!
Sincerely,
Joe & Andrea Buffone

Hello! I never got to talk to you after the wedding on the 20th, but I wanted to thank you for everything! You were awesome and I had many compliments on the dj service :) Hopefully I will get to do business with you again in the future!

Tor,
We wanted to thank you for doing such a great job at our recent wedding reception (8/11/12, Centre Hall American Legion) - you did everything we had requested, and helped the evening to run so smoothly! And the kids there LOVED that you were so great about taking requests - they had so much fun! You were the perfect DJ for our occasion - thanks again!

Thank ya again,

Cody,
Just wanted to thank you again for doing a great job at Rachael's Sweet 16 Saturday evening. She and her friends had a great time and really enjoyed your music.
I would recommend you to anyone.
Thanks,
Carol Kuhlen

Thanks for the music last night at Brandon's and my wedding! You did a great job, everyone had a blast!

I wanted to tell you that Cody did a very nice job for us at my daughter's Bat Mitzvah. He was very personable and good with Bessie's bunch of middle school friends. He had all the music ready that we had asked him for, or given him...and any additional song we asked for he immediately searched for and got for us. My brother-in-law came with some of his own Jewish music, (Klezmer) and found Cody to be very receptive and in fact eager to learn about this unfamiliar type of music; he (my brother-in-law) was very impressed with Cody. So overall Cody did a nice job for us and helped to make the party a success.

Dear Jim and Tor,
I want to thank you so much for the excellent music and emcee services you provided during our wedding reception at the Nittany Lion Inn on 05/22/2010! All the events during the reception were executed by Jim both professionally and artfully. Our guests made great use of the dance floor the entire time, and everyone still is commenting on how much fun they had! Jim provided the exact music styles we requested throughout the night, and he was able to accommodate many on-the-spot song requests (as well as our last-minute changes to the wedding party entrance lineup!). We enjoyed working with you very much and highly recommend your DJ services!
Thank you again!
Sincerely,
Jackie and Eric Fiterman

Willing and Organized

Tor Michaels Entertainment made planning our wedding reception enjoyable, organized, and stress-free. The DJ was prompt and attuned to our suggestions throughout the reception. He was willing to extend his already comprehensive list of music with some of our personal favorites. The online reception planner was a plus and gave us a good basis from which to plan the reception. We highly recommend booking a DJ from Tor Michaels for your wedding or special event.

Anniversary Smash!

I want to thank you for making my parents 50th anniversary very special. You did a fantastic job. The music selection that you did was perfect. Everyone loved the music. My parents truly enjoyed the selections. They told me that the music brought back great memories.

My parents loved your Frank Sinatra's inpersonation. Mom enjoyed your singing the Summer Wind to her.

I would highly recommend your service to anyone who wants to have a outstanding DJ and have a successful occasion. You helped us to make my parents 50th anniversary a wonderful experience.

Thank you Tor.

A Gratious Host
Thank you very much for the spectacular job you did at our party Friday night. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Everyone had a great time, and you are certainly responsible for a great deal of the success we achieved.

I was very sorry to hear that your coat disappeared. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know. That was an unfortunate conclusion to a winning effort.

Thank you again for a job well done.

For my information, how far in advance do you book? I’d like to discuss the possibility of locking you in for our party next year. It’s December 15th at Toftrees.

Best Regards.
Joe Benz

An Impressed Party-goer
My wife and I attended the wedding reception Saturday night. Your mix of music from dinner to oldies to hip hop was great. You kept everyone up and having a good time. It is clear that you like your work and you really like to entertain your guests. Good job.

Even The Bride's MOM Loves Tor!
Last May when my daughter became engaged and I knew we would be planning a reception.The one sure thing I knew was, I wanted Tor Michaels for the deejay. Years ago my husband and I had enjoyed his talent at various events and love the way he gets the crowd to have a super time. Well, he did it again on Sept. 28, 2002.

He did our daughters reception and the place was rockin. Tor was awesome!!!! He is such a professional. I did not have to worry about things moving along thru the course of the evening because Tor took care of it. We highly recommend Tor and the manner in which he performs. We just cannot say enough about how much we enjoy him!
Sincerely,
Ron and Pam Shanafelt

Every party is a Special Occasion!

Tor,

I wanted to take the time to tell you of the GREAT time that was had by all at my 40th B.Day Bash at the philipsburg CC on Saturday 5-24-03. Troy was the BEST THING that my guests experienced with DJ services in a long time. He was Great.. My only regret and owed apology to Troy was that I got so caught up in the music and the dancing, I never stopped to offer him something to drink or eat... Talk about a poor hostess. The Guy never quit... one great tune after the other, Very professional, Very well mannered and good with the crowd. I have passed along info on your services to 3 differ people who are in the process of planning an event. You will be HIGHLY recommended. as well Troy. Again , Thank you so much for helping make my special day absolutely PERFECT.

Sincerely,
PR Fetcho

Hi Jim Moser and Tor Michaels,

I wanted to thank you for your services for my wedding on June 9th at Toftrees.

Jim you did an excellent job! All I keep hearing is that was the best wedding reception ever. Most people said that they never seen so many people dance at a wedding before. I danced from the first song all the way to the last song. I had a friend who worked many years as a set up guy for Dj's and bands come up to me and say, as many years as he worked with musicians and DJ's he never saw a party or dance where so many people were on the dance floor for the entire night!

You certainly did a good job with remembering which songs I said I specifically wanted to hear as well as which ones I said I DID not want to hear. You remembered all of the little dedications I wanted, for example, asking all my sisters to join me on the dance floor to do the "Hustle". As the night went on I remember being so busy and then you would make an announcement and I was like OH yeah.. I forgot about that, I'm sure glad Jim remembered!!

Thank you so much for helping me with the wedding ceremony music. I'm glad you realized the song I picked was not long enough for all of us to walk down the isle to.

You did a great job working with Toftrees on coordinating everything so the day went smoothly.

As I told you when I met you, I believe the DJ is a key to a great wedding reception. You helped make mine a great one! Thank you so much Jim! You were awesome! I will definitely use you and TorMichials services again!

---------------------------------

Jim really did a fantastic job at our June 2 wedding at Tussey Mountain. Not only was he wonderful in handling the typical wedding DJ stuff and keeping the reception running smoothly, he really kept the dance floor full and the party rockin’ until our reception was over. He could tell that our group was a bunch of dancers and played music that kept everyone out on the dance floor! We would hire Jim again in a second for any special event we might have! Thanks for everything!

---------------------------------

My wedding reception was FABULOUS...All thanks to Jim Moser and Tor Michaels Entertainment. I had no doubt that Jim was going to be good, however he was more than that....he was absolutely wonderful! I cannot tell you how many times I was asked "Who is your DJ!?" "He is really good!" "You can tell he is a professional!" Jim not only made the night incredibly fun and entertaining, he made sure not to rush the night along, giving everyone time to enjoy themselves during all of the festivities. Jim doesn't just act like a professional..He IS a professional! Everything went according to how we planned - no suprises, no disasters!! Now days, it is hard to find honest practices with a promise to deliver. Not with these guys! Tor Michaels Entertainment was so easy to work with..no hassles, no phone tags, just up-front- state of the art service! There will never be a doubt in my mind when I plan a party. Jim Moser and Tor Michaels entertainment will be the first to call on my list. Thanks again for making our night a blast!

Best Wishes, Jon and Mandi Modico-Kay

Jim did a fabulous job at my wedding, I would not have changed a thing about him. He was professional, kind, funny, and kept our wedding going in a smooth and timely manner. Not only did he help with the nit-and-gritty mechanics of the wedding (playing ceremony music, introducing the bridal party, calling for people for pictures, passing on any group instructions, etc,) but he played exactly what we asked for and more. We also were only scheduled to have him until 7:30, but he was very flexible and accommodating and helped us boogie in the woods until 2 o'clock in the morning. He accepted and played our requests and even let us steal the show for awhile too, allowing some of our wedding party to take over the microphone. Since the wedding was in the mountains, he also set up with no problems and even helped during a torrential down pour during the vows. I highly recommend Jim for any wedding or any special event!!

Jim,
Thanks for being at Haley and Joes wedding on Saturday! Everyone had fun and you did a great job!

Tor, Thanks for setting this all up. We had a lot of fun and Jim did a great job!!!

Danie H.

---------------------------------

Jim did an amazing job at our wedding. Not only did he research and find all the different bands that went along with the type of music that we wanted, but he also made sure that he had most of it along with him. He took care of not only our reception music, be he also went out of his way to purchase the music that we desired for our ceremony. He was great in granting all of the requests that were made and was more than happy to stay extra hours so that we could keep on dancin!! I would recommend Jim to anyone, especially those who love to dance the night away and want something different than just your typical cookie cutter wedding music!! Thanks Jim, it's all about the old school :-)

Just a follow up note to thank you for providing Jim Moser as a disc jockey for our daughter Valerie' s wedding, October 18, 2003 at Frosty Valley Country Club.

He was most professional and we all had a good time. As Valerie's Mother, I appreciated his appearance and manner. He did all we asked of him, including playing two polkas. Jim handled the reception events, bridal dance, bouquet toss, garter toss, cake cutting with care and thoughtfulness. He truly was a great find for us and we cannot thank you and Jim enough for making this a very special event.

We had guests inquire as to who he was and where we found him. I hope this generates new bookings for Jim and for you.

---------------------------------

As a bride I had to make hundreds of decisions about my "big day." By far the easiest and best on was to hire Jim Moser as my DJ. He was courteous and helpful before the wedding, and he made the reception great! Everyone told me what a great time they had and I know that it was because of him. Thanks, Jim!
