I am not sure why my experience with Acclimated Sounds is so dramatically different than the others. Hardly sounds like the same person that I have hired for birthday parties, graduations and my 2 daughters weddings and not to mention my own wedding. Lane even officiated the weddings. Matter a fact because Lane was not available on the first date we picked, we changed the date. I have never received poor service and never disappointed. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again. I have referred him to numerous people that have always used him numerous times.

My husband and I used Acclimated Sounds DJ Entertainment Services on 11/11/11. Lane was our DJ and he is amazing! He was excited about our wedding from the beginning and wanted to make sure that everything was perfect. He played everything we asked for, and the slideshow on the big screens was a hit! Our wedding was a blast! The night flew by in the blink of an eye, just like he said it would. We had the time of our life and danced all night. All of our guests had so many positive things to say! Lane was very professional and easy to work with. He is the best!

Let me just say out of all the things at my wedding Acclimated Sounds service was by far the most disappointing. Lane sure talked a big game about how great his services are and how some magazine did an article on him. Here are some of the things that went wrong 1) He forgot the rehearsal appointment and needed to be called to come in. (He talked such a good game that we hired him to do our ceremony. We had to plan our wedding from out of state sense I am active duty military and we were getting married in my wife’s home town.) Then got there and make the lamest excuse I've ever heard in my life about how he was in his Florida room watching the birds and squirrels frolic and lost track of time. 2. My wife requests 1 song, that song was not played. 3. Lane forgot to mention my best friend that was deployed over sea's in a war zone in my place so I could get married. 4. Lane claimed to be able to take care of our needs as far as wedding planning went. In regards to license and everything. Well at least he eventually mailed in the license after being bothered by us even though he assured me he would take it to the court house first thing that following Monday morning. 5. When asked why the speeches where not videoed the response was “I only record "highlights" from the reception and unfortunately, you never mentioned the toasts as being something important to being video'd” “I did not shoot video of your toasts, I am sorry that you didn't mention that being something important to you during our planning conversations via email or in person. At this point, I am not able to go back in time and record the toasts.” Lane accused me that the whole wedding would be taped when 3 days before my wedding when I sat in his living room. Yes I can understand the first dance and father daughter dance and some dancing being a highlight but, not only dancing which leads me to my next point. 6. The one thing Acclimated Sounds was supposed to be good at. The reason people hire Acclimated Sounds DJing. Lane assured me he would read the crowd. He would get them dancing. Instead he played elevator music forever in the beginning until he bored most of the people in there into leaving. Then when multiple people requested stuff he just told them to let him do his job. 7. How many cigarette breaks did Lane take? More than I can count. He was being paid to be in the hall. I can understand 1 maybe 2 but he was out there all the whole time. 8. We requested a dollar dance be done, this never happened either. 9. Last point while I was emailing Lane about the video and his response was “The video is an "add on" to my DJ Service” Why offer something that you cannot fulfill. “You received my package at more than half off my regular rate.” Well I expected him to do his job. He offered the deal. Nowhere or at any time did he say we would get half the service. If that was the case I would have gladly paid someone else. And if that was his full service I would have paid him more like a $150 bucks to borrow his equipment and he could have stayed at home.

I'm sorry to say Acclimated Sounds was a HUGE disappointment. The video was fuzzy, my daughter and son-in-law were hard to make out during the service due to the poor quality of the video and Lane was unproffessional and rude at the reception when guests asked for specific songs. We hired him at a discount as we found him at a bridal show and paid extra for the video to be shot and what they say is true...you get what you pay for. We would have paid three times the cost to get quality service for this once in a life time event. Don't let the pictures on the website fool you. Talked a good talk did not deliver. Was 1 and one half hours late for rehersal because he "Forgot" even though we talked him two nights prior!
