About

"Raging Dance Party" is DJ Maskell's style; always beatmatching and mixing on the turntables while reading the crowd and amplifying the atmosphere using the 66+ uplights (included free with all weddings) to deliver a room-filling dynamic light show that is actively driven by DJ Maskell to ramp up the intensity of the party.

His style stems from a background in DC nightclubs and 21+ years of wedding experience, but his expertise extends far beyond simply rocking the party. DJ Maskell has worked extensively as a wedding planner and coordinator and works closely with clients to ensure that every detail is meticulously plotted out so that the day flows smoothly.

Day-of coordination assistance

In the absence of a dedicated day-of coordinator, DJ Maskell works very closely with clients in the weeks and months leading up to the wedding to fill in the gaps by plotting out the day-of logistics in extensive detail, coordinating with other vendors, then executing on the day-of. DJ Maskell will also help you to organize, track, idiot-proof, and delegate certain tasks that a coordinator would normally handle, such as setup, decor, and cleanup.

DJ Maskell is fully vaccinated and boosted.

Best DJ Experience You could Ever Ask For

Our first interaction with Mark was extremely positive. His fun, energetic personality comes out immediately. He was extremely thorough in every meeting, making sure all our music was set. On the day of our wedding, he read the crowd perfectly to ensure that we had a packed dance floor the entire time. His ability to match up lighting with the music was amazing. After the wedding, we had several friends ask how we ended up with such an awesome DJ.

10/10 Party Master

Mark was an absolute dream to work with! From the planning stages, to the actual wedding day, he was the biggest help of all my vendors. He made sure we had thought of everything before the wedding day, and helped with anything I needed along the way. Wedding day, he made sure everything went smoothly and kept everyone on the dance floor until the last song! He listened to our recommendations, gave suggestions when needed, and truly helped give us such a special and magical night. HIRE HIM!!!!!

Best dj hands down!

If you want an amazing wedding reception that will have everyone on the dance floor until the end of the night, Mark is the DJ for you. Mark was super helpful throughout the whole wedding planning process. He provides you with a planning spreadsheet and is always willing to provide help where ever is needed. Mark played music during our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We received sooo many compliments from our guests on how great the lighting was and how awesome the music selection was. Mark sets up lights everywhere and really goes above and beyond. He even held up lights for our bubble exit so the pictures would capture the bubbles better. You can truly tell he loves what he does and wants every couple he works with to have an amazing wedding. So if you are looking for a DJ who does it all, book Mark!! We love you!!
