Membership Director: Mike Waggett

Mike is a “born & raised” native Houstonian. He began spinning records at age 16 while working at the local skating rink. After graduating from high school, he began playing nightclubs in the Bay Area at age 18 while attending college. A patron of the nightclub asked Mike if he would play music for his daughter’s wedding reception and as they say, “the rest is history.” In 1985 Mike started Wag’s D.J. Service. Since that time, he has played at events such as weddings, receptions, company parties, picnics, Holiday celebrations, reunions, anniversaries, birthdays, school functions, pool parties and fund-raisers. However, Mike saw a special need in the Bridal Industry where entertainment was lacking that “special flare” and he decided to specialize his talents in Wedding Entertainment. “I wanted to give Brides that special attention not often given by other entertainment companies.” Therefore, Mike started attending special training in wedding entertainment such as the “Love Story” workshop and several others. He continues to stay informed of the latest changes in the mobile DJ Industry by attending DJ conventions, DJ seminars, reading trade magazines and working with local DJ’s in the American Disc Jockey Association. In 2004 Mike and his wife Kimberly helped start a Bridal Networking group in the Clear Lake/Bay Area called the Bay Area Wedding Professionals, where Mike is currently serves as Chairman. Mike was so dedicated to giving his Bride’s what they needed that he went Full-time with his business in 2005. With over 22 years experience as a Mobile DJ and Entertainer, Mike continues to strive to maintain a successful, professional business with customer satisfaction his number one goal. He hopes that one day, he can be joined by his (now seven year-old) son, Brandon.
