I bring the right kind of energy and music to make your wedding day fun and memorable! Since 2010, I’ve been lucky enough to work with the most amazing clients in Michigan, and those planning their wedding from out-of-state. As an experienced wedding DJ, my passion for music has helped me evolve into one of the most skilled DJ/MC event coordinators in Michigan. With the latest technology and a collaborative approach to music, my clients know that they can book me as their DJ with full confidence. Contact me today and find out how we can make your event a huge success!

I have to start by saying that our friends and family enjoyed DJ Troy so much that they continually chanted his name throughout the reception. From the moment we first spoke with Troy, we knew we were in good hands. His communication was clear, comprehensive, and friendly, putting us at ease throughout the planning process. On our wedding day, he went above and beyond to be incredibly flexible with our less-than-perfect backyard dance floor setup - what a champ. He even incorporated a special cultural tradition dance we requested without advance notice (oops, thanks Troy). He brought incredible energy and thoughtfulness to introducing our loved ones and facilitating the toasts and speeches and he exemplified professionalism and kindness at EVERY turn. Platinum Energy truly helped make our special day unforgettable.

Hi there! I started my music education at 8 years old, starting with private piano lessons that spanned 12 years.. leading to a BA in Vocal Performance from Wayne State University, and study abroad in Rome, Italy. I’ve performed as a Soprano soloist/section leader for numerous churches throughout Metro Detroit, and have had the honor of singing with many great bands. I joined Trilogy Band 10 years ago, and truly fell in love with being a part of couples’ special days. There’s nothing like seeing their faces full of joy, and the energy of a packed dance floor! My Clients’ happiness is my priority.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! We had the absolute pleasure of having Trilogy Band play at our wedding, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with their performance! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this band! From the moment they began to play, they captivated our guests with their incredible energy and musical talent. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of their performance, from the seamless transitions between songs to the thoughtful selection of music that perfectly matched the vibe of our celebration. Each member is a powerhouse in their own right, and together, they created a sound that was both polished and dynamic! What truly set them apart was their ability to read the crowd and get everyone on their feet. They crafted an atmosphere of pure joy, ensuring that the dance floor was packed all night long. Our guests were raving about the band, and many commented that they were a highlight of the wedding! If you’re looking for a band that knows how to have fun and keep the party going, look no further.

It's been 3 weeks since we got married and we're STILL getting compliments on our DJ Tim! As soon as we had our zoom call with him I knew he'd be a great fit. He was so calm and relaxed and brought our stress level down. We were a little worried because neither of our families are big into dancing and didn't want the DJ to pressure them like we've seen at other weddings. But we had people consistently dancing the ENTIRE night. They all said they had so much fun and that he had an awesome music collection. All of his announcements were spot on and the way he faded out the music for the processional, my walk down the aisle, and special dances were perfect. I chose Craig and his team because their website/team was so unique. It was fun and definitely caught my attention. Their communication throughout the whole process was outstanding! Every text and email they sent was so kind and not pushy at all. I highly recommend them and DJ Tim!

The experience so far has been great! We are getting married in July 2022, but are currently planning our wedding from out of state. We knew a great DJ was a must because the music can make or break a reception. The Mike Staff Productions experience is so unique from any other company I contacted. They send you video profiles on available DJs, so you can actually see and hear how the DJ. This was awesome, because we could get a glimpse into how the DJ would make announcements on our wedding day. We were also pleased to hear about their back-up plan. They have DJs on call in case of emergencies. It is so nice to check something off the planning to-do list, and know we booked a company we can count on!

Me and my now Wife found William through Zola. He was very professional and very flexible as our wedding was on a private beach home and completely put together by Her and I and a couple family members. Needless to say, William was the most stress free part of our wedding planning, despite having to travel 3 hours and additionally having to learn a custom wedding song for us. I would fully recommend him to anyone needing a reliable, legit, and reasonably priced Musician!
