CBDanceman is great. He is extremely communitive and was helpful every chance he could be. He goes above and beyond with some of the helpful documents he sends prior to the wedding. He was by far, the easiest part of my wedding. He was able to fit our budget and worked well with the venue for setup.

About CBDanceman
Hey there! Thank you for your interest in my DJ/MC Services - I've got the music/dance program to make your special day everything you hope it will be. For wedding ceremonies, I have a selection of traditional music as well as modern love songs and instrumentals, and the perfect recessional piece to play after being pronounced. I also provide a wireless mic for the officiant if needed. For Parties and Receptions, I play a variety of upbeat and contemporary songs as your guests get settled, but at a low volume to encourage social conversation. Ready to dance? I'm your guy! My music library consists of 80 years of dance favorites - Big Band to Modern Pop, Classic Rock to Hip Hop, Jazz Standards to Country. Give me your play list and let the party begin. Beyond a DJ playing music, I'm a Dance Leader! In addition to providing Emcee services for weddings and other special events, I am often asked to include an old-fashioned Barn Dance segment (15 - 50 minutes long) consisting of squares, contras, polkas, non-partner, mixers, novelty, and country line dances - Great fun for all ages! No experience necessary, I demonstrate all dances from the floor and adjust the program to the experience and ability of the group to assure maximum participation and enjoyment. Personable and Professional, my goal is to make sure everyone is having a great time, and to keep the event moving along. I do my best to play requests, but always keep it family friendly with no foul language or explicit lyrics. Quoted price includes pre-event consultation, travel, equipment set-up, and requested hours of MC/music/dance program. Hope to see you on the dance floor! Carl Ballou, CBDanceman
Reviews
Was able to provide the many songs we requested for our 50th anniversary. Led the group in dancing well
We had a wedding with a large age gap in guests. The music fit everyone and was fun! DJ had to move his equipment from ceremony area to reception area, and did so without missing a beat in the music. It was great!
Carl was so great from the tike of hire to the day he showed up to the wedding. Our guests had so much fun dancing and laughing as we did some interactive dances. He traveled all the way to humboldt just to do our wedding. He was very responsive via email, text ect and had a great outline to follow for picking songs. It made the whole process so much easier than I expected. I am honored to have had the experience working with him. I highly recommend you hire him for your next big event.
Carl was very easy to get along with and made us feel comfortable as first time dancers. He choreographed our dance for us, helped us modify moves that we found too difficult, and also helped to edit our song to suit the pace we wanted to go at. He drove to us every week and he was always on time. With his expertise, we were able to get most of the dance down in just 4 sessions. I highly recommend hiring him if you need extra help with a wedding first dance like we did.
Carl was tremendous in helping my wife and I with the first dance at our wedding. We had next to zero dancing background and he made this very easy for us to learn and the end result came out very well! Would highly recommend Carl!
Carl was responsive and easy to communicate with. He was timely with set up/ break down and played a ton of songs that kept our wedding guests engaged in dancing throughout the night. Carl really shines when leading group dances. It’s obvious that he is passionate about leading others in having a good time. Everyone had such a great time that they were chanting “Carl, Carl, Carl” at the end of the night.
Carl spent time with us to develop a program that met our needs. When it came time for the event, there were no surprises. He was extremely respectful of how we expected our event to be conducted. He kept the music volume exactly as loud as it needed to be, so that our guests were able to converse easily.
Thank you
He was late getting there with no apology. The quality of the sound was horrendous… I believe he needs a different sound system. We had to keep requesting music because he wasn't playing what we asked for. I feel bad I don't like to be mean but I don't want anyone else's special day ruined. We had a lot of complaints about the DJ. Very upsetting.
A great value, very professional
Enjoyed working with Carl. He put together a wonderful dance routine for our first dance. He worked with our schedules and even came to us which was awesome. Would recommend him to anyone else wanting learn to dance.
