"Music Man Productions put on an awesome show for our wedding! We have never been to a wedding with more people dancing! There was never a time that the dance floor was empty, and not only that, it was almost always full. You had to fight for a spot on the floor. Ron did an excellent job with music selection, both with reading the crowd and keeping a good mix of songs that we all enjoyed. Their online request and profile system was state of the art! It made it extremely simple for us to provide the information we needed to. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ!" -- Joe and Laura Klaes, July 2014
"Just wanted to thank you for sending Ron our way! We had such a great time with him and he went above and beyond expectations! Tell him thanks for putting up with us...hind sight we might have gotten a little crazy! :)"-Nicole Miller (birthday), September 2012
"Thank you Curtis for everything! Your services really made our day truly special! We loved all the music and will definitely recommend you to others in the Des Moines area and elsewhere! You are fantastic! " -Jane and Steve Anderson, June 2012
"We could not have been more pleased with the service we got! Our wedding reception went on without any problems, and the itinerary we agreed to a head of time was followed. The music was great and our guests could not have had more fun! Thanks Curtis! "-Darcy and Logan Wood, June 2012
"Thank you so much for the best wedding reception ever! I had so many compliments on our DJ so I wanted to let you know you helped make the night extra special!!! I think most people were sore on Sunday from all the dancing and you know that's a great sign!!! :) Thanks again - let's go bar hoping in Grimes :)"-Destiny and Nate Estes, April 2012
"Curtis is the best DJ that I have seen at any wedding, dance, prom, ect. He was professional and really got the crowd involved. He did music for our wedding service and reception it took him less than 20 mins to reorganize the area to be ready for the dance. He was quick to respond to my emails and/or phone calls. We are very very happy with the service we received and it was at a great value. His goal was for us to enjoy our night--and we did!!"--Jean and Stephen Dorcey, New Years Eve 2011-12
"Thank you Curtis for being a part of our wedding. It was the greatest day ever! We had sooooo many wonderful comments on your music!" --Kate and Josh Rinehart, November 2011
"I meant to talk to you before we left the Elks but didn't get a chance.... THANK YOU FOR A PERFECT RECEPTION!!!! You did a wonderful job and we greatly appreciate everything! It was exactly what we wanted. Thank you again! The 11:11 pm dance....perfect. I will never forget that moment!" -- Jill and Kelly Nissen, November 2011
"Thank you SO much Curtis and Eric! We had such an amazing wedding reception in large part because of you two! You did a great job of announcing everything before it happened so everyone knew what was going on. Everyone could hear the prayer, speeches, cake cutting. The dance was SO fun! You guys kept the energy up and kept everyone on the dance floor. The music was fun music that everyone knows and loves. It was great meeting with Curtis before the wedding to review all of the details and timeline. The online event planner worked great too! Thank you for all of your work! We really appreciate everything you did!"--Sarah and Jake Taylor, September 2011
"Thank you so much for being the DJ at our wedding! We are so happy for you to be a part of our special day! Thank you for making it so special!"--Ruthie and Paul Tabone, August 2011
"We were so pleased with Curtis/Music Man Productions. Everything went so smoothly and everyone had a great time. The online event planning tool was extremely helpful and convenient. We spent a lot of time looking for the right DJ, and decided on Curtis because of the price and his experience, and we definitely made the right decision!"--Ashlee and Kyle Glienke, June 2011
"We used Music Man Productions at our wedding reception and were so pleased with the service. Prior to the wedding, we met with Curtis and were able to lay out what we wanted/didn't want in regards to our reception music along with planning out the order of events at the reception. Curtis was extremely helpful with his own ideas and took our suggestions as well. Curtis and Chris (both were working at our reception) did an excellent job of using a variety of music that everyone liked (and that we suggested prior to the party)...everything from a German polka to Lady Gaga! I could definitely tell that people of all ages were really enjoying the music. In fact, they had our guests dancing late into the night! Oh and I have to mention the fact that neither Curtis or Chris are awkward/annoying DJ's. I've attended a handful of wedding receptions where the DJ isn't able to read the crowd, and they end up creating an awkward evening for the guests. You can rest assured that if you book Music Man Productions for your reception, this won't be the case! Seriously, book Music Man Productions. You will not be disappointed!" -- Kayla and Jon Feld, August 2010
"Curtis was awesome to work with!! We had an outdoor ceremony and his set-up for the ceremony was quaint and professional - no big ugly obstructive equipment to look at. All the guests could hear the music and ceremony well. Music was enjoyed through the dinner hour and He did a wonderful job at announcing us as we arrived and made sure the night flowed smoothly and the guests were aware of what was going on. The dance was by FAR the best part of the night!!! Curtis worked great with us on picking songs, giving us some ideas as well as feedback and was great at getting requests playes. He had music for all ages! He even suggested 'fun activities' to do during the dancing hours (dollar dance, conga line, snowball, and many other special fun dances). We were very happy with the services provided. He was very professional but also not afraid to get everyone to have a FUN time!! and that we did :)"--Autumn and Matt Schmelling, May 2010
"We would recommend Music Man productions to any couples whom are looking for a professional, reliable, fun DJ.Curtis did a great job giving us the right mix of music for what we wanted and responded to our every request!"--Matt and Crystal Stockdale, July 2009
"We are so happy that we chose Curtis as our DJ for our wedding. Many of our guests commented on how great the reception and music was, and we couldn't have done it without him! He played a variety of music that everyone could enjoy, and was also very flexible when we wanted to use the microphone for singing, toasts, etc. We had a great time with Curtis and would definitely recommend him as a DJ for you! Thanks Again!"--Tabatha and Dustin Pittack, July 2009
"Thank you so much for being a part of our special day! The reception went wonderfully thanks to your help and all fo the music was just great!

"I just wanted to email you quick and tell you how great of a job you did at our wedding reception if you need any referrals we will be glad to put in a great word for you. I will see you next summer at the Demers wedding but it went great after everyone had ate it was just really busy i couldnt believe all the people. But thanks alot and take care."--Miranda and Matt Madsen, June 2009
"Curtis Dean was a great DJ to work with. He would always make time for us with our busy schedules and we even met later at night. We were impressed as to how hard he worked to help us find certain songs for the special dances for our reception and how hard he worked during the reception to keep everyone happy with finding I believe every song that was requested. Curtis really did make it our special night by not having to worry about the music or his set up, he was early, able to set everything up and was not picky at where we wanted him to set up. We really enjoyed him as our DJ and would highly recomend him to anyone else." --Joe and Amber Otto, February 2009
"You truly exceeded all of our expectations. You were very accommodating to our preferences and requests! We found you to be very personable and professional! We had so many wonderful compliments about how much fun our reception was (compared to other receptions they had been to) and the music and dancing was the biggest part of it! you engaged our guests into being an active part of the party! Thank you so much! We would highly recommend you!"--Jeff and Angie Moore,October 2008

"Curtis Dean was a wonderful asset to our wedding! He was very professional and came dressed appropriately. Every request we had, he answered. This included such items as a do not play song list and having the dance outdoors.
