​"As a wedding planner I was excited to use him again since we have worked with him a number of times before and each time he always went above and beyond his call of duty as DJ, Emcee and Master of Ceremonies. DJ Derek is wonderful to work with because he really helps you create the timeline that you need to make your day seamless and he adds a personal touch by always checking in on all the vendors and the bride and groom to see if they have everything that they need throughout the day/evening. On top of that, his playlists always get the crowd hype and on the dance floor! We will continue to recommend DJ Derek to all of our clients."

 “People were packing the dance floor all night and one bride to be came up to me to say that if she could fly him to Colorado for her wedding in June, she would. But ultimately it is all about the music and he rocked it.”
-Diana

"Derek was a pleasure to work with…the reception was a blast and Derek had the dance floor filled the entire night. I literally didn't sit down once the music started. Everyone had an amazing time and they are still talking about how much fun they had dancing the entire night!"
-Meagan

"We worked with Derek Romanoff and he was absolutely amazing. He really blew us away with his professionalism, willingess to work with us, and most importantly his talent as a DJ…we were blown away with Derek's work and would recommend him to anyone doing a wedding anywhere near the midalantic :)"
