"Overall, we had a great experience! I just wish that songs we had on our playlist were played. I had about 4 hours worth of music I sent and it was only played for about 20 minutes before other random music was played. There were a lot of songs that nobody knew. Any song that people asked to play were played, which was great!"

"Thank you so much for DJing for our wedding reception last night on such a short notice. Shawn did a phenomenal job and had my guests dancing like there was no tomorrow. He even played many popular Hmong songs including Sek Loso. Highly recommended. Thank you."

"The band I had booked months in advance of my birthday bash finked out just a couple of days before the party, and I scrambled to find an alternative music option. ST Budget Sound came through in a big way, and I was instantly put at ease by their steady and timely communication, their kind manner, and their willingness to work with us to ensure certain songs were played, etc.. Thanks to the wonderful ST Budget Sound for helping make my party a success! I will use you again for future events!"

"Shah was great! They were very responsive for communication and my party had ended up not being that many people and they were great at pivoting. They played all the great songs as well."

"We hired ST Budget Sound for our wedding, and we were absolutely thrilled with the experience—especially with our DJ, Ash. He was professional, easy to work with, and helped make our night unforgettable. Ash did an excellent job reading the room and adjusting the music to match the energy, keeping the party going strong all night even with the dwindling numbers as it got later in the night.

One of the highlights of the evening was when he noticed one of our friends singing along to a song using their drink can as a microphone. Without missing a beat, Ash handed him a real mic and turned it into a spontaneous karaoke moment that had everyone laughing and cheering. It was such a fun, unexpected touch that made the night even more memorable.

So many of our guests commented on how great the music was and how much fun they had dancing. If you're looking for a DJ who's professional, personable, and seriously talented at keeping the vibe just right—Ash is your guy. Highly recommend ST Budget Sound!"
