DJ and MC for weddings, companies and private events
The right song is only half the job.
Icon DJ is owner operated by Ethan Stone. You plan with Ethan, and Ethan is behind the decks.
The approach
01 / Preparation and judgment
Preparation before the event. Judgment during it.
Ethan learns what you like, what you do not want played and how the day is supposed to run.
Once guests arrive, he watches the room and adjusts. The planning is detailed. The performance should never feel programmed.
