Pharaoh DJ'd at our wedding 6 months ago and although the music started off well at our reception with some mainstream hits, the music overall wasn't too our preference. My husband sent a sample playlist several weeks ahead of our wedding which did not include any mainstream songs to Pharaoh and confirmed he can play a curated set similar to the sample. However the DJ set was an endless list of pop and mainstream songs which we didn't like. Despite our guests requesting other songs throughout the reception, Pharaoh did not take on the request in fear it'd ruin the set order, even though the dance floor was clear. Despite this, Pharaoh was pleasent to communicate with.
