I want to start of by saying that my wife and I planned this wedding and had no clue what we were doing half the time. We came across A Very Special Day's booth at one of the wedding shows and really liked what they had to offer. They didn't email me a thousand times or call every five mins. They were very professional. They asked what my budget was and what services I needed. They then were able to set up a DJ that could do what I wanted at the cost I wanted. I was luck enough to get Aaron as our DJ. At the first visit he got a feel for what type of music we wanted, the style of wedding we wanted and catered everything to reflect that. What I didn't bargin for was how much help he was besides being our DJ. He was able to give advice on thing we could do during the reception, ideas for songs we could play, on toasts from the groom, I could go one forever. Two weeks before the wedding he set up a final consultation. We still had a few holes in our music selections and Aaron gave great advice and let us listen to songs that he thought would be a good fit. Of course they were great fits. The music was great. He really kept all the guests dancing and having a good time. He was able to get everyone from teenagers to grandparents on the floor to dance. I would highly recommend A Very Special Day and Aaron to anyone. On top of doing our DJ service AVSD also provided uplights. When we first contracted for the DJ they gave us a voucher for some money to be used towards lighting. The voucher, plus some money of our own provided great uplights, spot lights and a Monogram initial for the wall. AVSD can do it all

Our DJ was Richard McClure and I could not have been more delightfully suprised with his services! As soon as you book your wedding, he should be the very next call! From our brief meeting, he got a good sense of who we were and was extremely adept in translating that into entertaining our guests. He masterfully kept the energy going among my sedate bunch of wedding guests. My husband is a fairly shy person and Richard created an environment where he was able to enjoy the night more than I thought was possible. He truly went well above and beyond all my expectations.

My wedding planner recommended Richard for DJ services with no hesitation, and when we first met him we knew he was our man. Since we were planning our wedding from out of town, he was very flexible to accommodate our schedule, going even above and beyond to do a video session with us when we simply could not meet with him in person. He made our reception so much fun by playing exactly what we requested, and he knew exactly how to emcee and just go with the flow. He also made our reception very special by playing songs that were unique to our culture that was so unexpected. We also decided have AVSD do our lighting, and that gave our wedding the extra 'icing' on the cake. It made our reception look exceptionally beautiful in photos!

A Very Special Day made my wedding day a very special day indeed. He was very prompt in response every time we had a question. Everyone of my guests commented on how great the dj was and were very impressed with how he controlled the flow of the evening. Will definetly hire again or recommend to anyone who nis needing someone to make their day A Very Special Day.

I used the videography and DJ for my wedding. The DJ was Aaron Lehman. He was great and easy to work with. He was always willing to meet up anytime and make changes. He was very helpful on the day of the wedding. I highly recommend Aaron.I didn't have a lot of communications with the videographer, Ryan Brown, until a couple of weeks before the wedding. After talking to Ryan, I felt he knew what he was doing so I left it up to him. He was also easy to work with. However, I can't comment on the video since I haven't received them but I'm sure it will be good.I also used lightings through AVS. Everything looked great. The only thing I was disappointed was the initial monogram gobo light. It was too small on the dance floor. Other than that, everything looked the way I pictured it. Thanks.

Words can not convey how extremely pleased we were with our lighting!!! It was as important to the decor as the carefully planned flower arrangements,tableclothes,cake, and china. We were not confident with our ability to define our lighting needs for the wedding. There is so much that can be done and we have limited experience with lighting technology. Richard McClure with AVSD Productions came up with the perfect plan to create the ideal mood and feeling our daughter dreamed of having on her special day. It was magical!!! It tranformed the entire room into an incredible atmosphere way beyond our expectations!!!!Of all the $$$ spent on wedding, funds for lighting was well spent! ASVD PRODUCTIONS will always have our business not only because they are pros when it comes to detail but they resoled all the breakdowns that can happen when your planning and something goes wrong. Richard McClure's talents and skills were much appreciated. We discovered at the last minute someone else forgot an important part of the reception and Richard was able to fix the problem. I think 5 rating is not high enough for the service and quality we received. We have fond memories, no regrets, and enjoyed every minute of our daughter's wedding! The key to a perfect wedding is to hire good,reliable, professional people. AVSD Productions www.avsdpro.com did amazing work for us. We will be forever thankful we chose them for our lighting needs.

Richard was a great DJ to work with. He was the first vendor I hired and did not look for any other DJ's. We also added the lighting from this same company and we were sooooo pleased! My husband and I totally recommend Richard of a Very Special Day to everyone! If you want your reception program smooth, hire them. I did not have to worry about what was coming next during the reception, Richard took care of keeping track of time and making sure we got to the cake cutting, games, dances, etc. He is just awesome!!! The lighting was a hit and everyone loved it as well.

Aaron showed up and took such good care of us it was amazing! We really didn't know how to convey the way we wanted it to look and the experience we wanted to have. He asked great questions and basically became the master of "reception ceremonies" It was such a great evening and I can definitely say he played a huge role in making it happen. Thank You Aaron for a great memory!

It was nice to have someone who was not only doing their job wonderfully, but was watching out for/taking care of the bride and the groom. I was very pleased with Richard and Very Special Day and would recommend them to anyone (and everyone).

Richard was absolutely wonderful!! I had some odd/different request for music for the wedding ceremony and he was more than happy to accommodate my needs. He really listened to what my husband and I wanted and the ceremony was a blast because of him! I would recommend him to anyone!

I highly recommend Richard Mclure. He was not only an awesome DJ but an awesome MC and coordinator. He helped make sure everything came together in the wedding and that's something the average DJ doesn't do. His assistants and videographers did an excellent job and everyone was very professional, and they all made sure that we were happy every step of the way. A Very Special Day also did the lighting for our venue, which absolutely accentuated all of the decor that we had and the high ceilings in the room. I couldn't have been more happy with all of the services they provided for my wedding. :)

I used Richard McClure with A Very Special Day for my wedding and was highly impressed! He was accessible through the whole process which made my planning so much easier. He was enthusiastic and very creative. He gave us ideas for fun things to do at our reception that I had never thought of before. They made our reception so much more unique and enjoyable. Richard went above and beyond at the wedding. He did both our ceremony and reception. The lighting they did was fantastic. He engaged the crowd wonderfully; he performed magic tricks that quieted my crying niece; he helped my pregnant photographer set up her lighting; he even blew bubbles around my husband and I on our last dance for a picture-perfect moment. He went above and beyond in every way. I dealt with Cheryl on the administrative side of things and she was great too- very courteous and prompt to respond to any question I may have had. Their contract was detailed and they delivered on every aspect of the contract. I would recommend them to anyone in the DFW area.

Richard, from A Very Special Day, is a one-of-a-kind DJ. For my wedding, he provided all the music for the ceremony and reception. He executed everything we asked him to do for us perfectly. Even went beyond our expectations. He has a sound system that is unique to all the others out there. He has great ideas, makes it fun for all age groups, and was the highlight of my wedding. Until this day, my friends, family, and guest of the wedding are still saying how great the DJ performance was at my wedding. My advice, don't risk hiring someone you're unsure of. I've used Richard before, and I'm passing on my own personal experienced that I've had with A Very Special Day. He was worth every dollar we invested in him.

Let me start out by saying Richard McClure and his company not only was a great person to work with, but I LITERALLY don't think I could have done this wedding without him. He was able to take charge of the rehersal with all of my out-of-town family/friends and he found the very specific music I wanted for our wedding ceremony -- chinese erhu. He showed up plenty of time before anyone else, kept everyone entertained while we took photos, and even made my husband and I "to-go" boxes of our dinner b/c we had no time to sit and eat! Ladies-- if you leave the DJ planning to your fiancee and you end up meeting Richard thank your stars b/c your soon to be husband picked a great DJ!! (Thats what happend to me :D )

They showed professionalism in every way. Great coverage of our entire day and our video is something we will cherish for ever. Richard and his crew were perfect in every way and were able to record all aspects of the sound that was important to me. We had a bag piper that played outside and inside and he put a special mic on him just to capture that. I couldn't have been happier with the quality. Thanks again guys. - Paul Marshall
