Seeking DJ/ MC advice

Hi ladies! Have you selected a DJ/MC to rock the party on your big day? I am looking for a DJ that can get a diverse crowd of about 80-100 people to 'shake it' on the dance floor.

FH and I are R&B, reggae, soca, and hip-hop fans. We also like our fair share of pop and top 40 music. Since our guest list is diverse we will want a DJ with a good range of music from Justin Bieber (my FH's son loves him) to Nicki Minaj to Bob Marley to the Drifters (my mom loves 50s classics). What will actually get played, who knows, but we would like to have options and work with someone who knows what is danceable.

We have a modest budget, so any info you can share regarding costs would be helpful. A few other questions:

* Do you need an MC?
* Did you go with preferred vendors or venture off on your own?
* So far I have heard that Tommy Tunes (thanks FutureWifey) and Body Rock are worth considering. Has anyone used them? What about Sound Connections?

Thanks ladies!

I would look into who your RH recommends.. it can be a savings just bc in most cases recommended vendors eat free!

I went with Dancejock.. so far they've been great!

Thank you all for the fantastic leads!!! I have done my homework and narrowed down the list. FH has agreed to vet the contenders. Music is important to us both, so I know this is one task he will fully embrace. (He used to be a DJ in college with a radio show. Our basement is cluttered with at least 1000 CDs...He is definitely the man for this job!
