Ben & Mandy's Disney Wedding 2013








                                                                               






 In May of 2013 I did a wedding at Disneyland for Ben and Mandy. Their wedding was a morning to afternoon ceremony and reception. I was up early, had an awesome breakfast at Steakhouse 55 (yes they serve breakfast too) I had a sunrise burrito and some OJ and I was ready to go! After setting up my equipment and getting my suit on I started walking the area around the ceremony site waiting for things to get going. Little did I know that the maid of honor was also the sister to Mandy and her identical twin. This girl (who I thought was the bride) came up to me and said hello and started talking to me about a dance request she wanted a little later. And ( with a puzzled look on my face) I am like... Mandy don't you think you should be getting dressed into your gown? She laughed and said who she was and we both had a nice laugh! I have a picture of her in this blog as well with Mandy so you can see what I am talking about!
They had their ceremony at the Rose Court Garden. The cocktail time was at the Adventure land Lawn and the reception was in the Sleeping Beauty Pavilion. I have done many wedding here in the past and its one of my favorite locations to perform in at Disneyland. Ben and Mandy were an amazing couple. The Disney staff was perfect as always and we sure did have one amazing afternoon! I have to point out that this cake was like nothing I had seen before! It incorporated Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto all in one amazing towered confection of awesomeness! Speaking of Awesomeness I also ended up working with Jenna from White Rabbit Photo Boutique. One of my personal favorites to work with when I am at Disneyland. Jenna is always on time, always prepared and keep good communication with me during the event to make sure that we are working together. She also has a love for Disney like I do and I think it shows in her work and makes her a more valuable assets as a result. If you have a look at her work you will know what I am talking about. Another Disney Fairytale wedding come true and I am so happy that I was able to help! Thanks for reading!  DJ Pat

Best Wedding DJ!    posted 9/14/2013
DJ Pat was the best vendor I hired for my wedding and I highly recommend him. Not only does he do an awesome job with the music, but he even acted as a coordinator. He timed the ceremony music and instructed our wedding party, coordinated with my family and photographers to make sure all were present for every big moment, and was flexible with our music choices. He showed me different versions of songs I had picked (guitar version, instrumental, etc) that I ended up liking better and using. The thing I liked the most was how often he updated me on what big moments were coming up, your wedding day goes by so fast and it was extremely helpful to have someone give you warnings such as “cake cutting in ten minutes”. He kept the wedding day schedule moving and everyone on the dance floor. During the planning he was quick to respond to emails, flexible with times, and has an awesome client login page where you can manage all your music. DJ Pat is so much more then just a wedding DJ, my day would not have gone as smoothly without him.

Sarah & Eric's Mt Woodson Castle Wedding





Here are some pictures from Sarah and Eric's wedding at Mt Woodson Castle September 20th 2013. It was a beautiful night at one of my favorite venue to work at here in San Diego. Working with Iman from Personal Touch Catering / Mt Woodson Castle and Sean Capshaw from Resolusean Photography was awesome as always! Its always nice when I get the chance to work with people that have the same philosophy as I do when it comes to giving the clients the BEST we have to offer.

We Are A Green Company

Back in 2010 Sound Prodigy officially became a "green company". What does that mean you ask? Basically cutting down the amount of supplies that not only I use but the client does as well. First how we started was using rechargeable batteries instead of the throw away kind. Thus reducing the amount of batteries we throw away by 90%. We also use less paper too. Because all our clients information is online we only have to print a day of itinerary as a back up source incase we loose internet. 

Our contracts are also eSignture witch means we never have to print out another set for contracts for myself and the clients to sign. They can be saved online in a word document and stored in a digital format. Because of this we are happy to say that we have gone from using anywhere from 5 and 6 reams of paper to less that 1 ream per calendar year. This number only applies to office paperwork and my personal paper /battery usage for performance. When you add in the paperwork for our other DJ's (4) this number jumps a lot higher. This paper savings also applies to the client not having to print paper as well for an even greater reduction.

In to what we do use is properly recycled and nit simply thrown away with the rest of the garbage. We strive to be efficient in every way we can. The less we use equals less demand and less production witch is better all around. As a small company it may not seem like much but when you add the just a few dozen small companies doing this convergence it does make a difference.

Thanks, for reading! DJ Pat

100 Review Club



So happy and excited to be in the 100 review club. What this basically means is that over the last 3 years I have been publically asking my clients to donate some time to write a review of my performance after the fact. This helps me a great deal because this is how future clients gage how I do things and builds a strong foundation of trust with the client and myself.

Lets face it, this day is so important to people that they really want to be sure they are getting the quality of a professional DJ, Wedding Specialist and lighting designer. And not just a good sales pitch and cheap price. In reading past reviews you will notice that I really take the time and cater to the needs of every client and make them feel that I value the quality and flow of their wedding just as much as I do.

Now at this point I do have (date of this posting) I have 126 weddings recorded however, I have sent about a lot more request that I get reviews backs. Some clients that just feel like the wedding is over so they don't need to involve themselves in it and that’s fine. This blog and recognition goes out to all the awesome people that have taken the time to write that review and give me the continued success that I hold today.

THANK YOU ALL!!!!!! Love DJ Pat
