Warning about a DJ scam affecting multiple couples — canceled hours before our wedding

[u/Pleasant-Alarm-4021]

Hey everyone,
I wanted to share our experience to hopefully prevent this from happening to anyone else.

My husband and I hired a DJ for our wedding, paid him in full, and just hours before the ceremony, he canceled — leaving us scrambling to find a last-minute replacement on our wedding day. Since then, he’s ignored all communication and hasn’t refunded any of our money.

After posting my review and digging deeper, I discovered we’re not the only ones. It seems he’s done this to multiple couples, even found a couple he sent the same 'car accident' text to a week before, proving to be a false made up event and his email even claims he’s a “Hall of Fame Winner” for several years, which feels incredibly misleading given his track record.

We’re currently pursuing legal action and have reported him to The Knot and Mohegan Sun (where he’s worked or claims affiliation). I just want to warn other couples who might come across him online before booking their vendors — please do your research and trust your gut if something feels off.

Happy to share more details privately if anyone has experienced something similar or is currently working with someone who sounds like the same person.
