Thank you for 5 amazing years.
This will be my last.

Five years ago I started something truly special.

I had just quit my job at Kwik Trip and didn’t know what was next. I started DJing weddings, and a few months later I launched my own business.

Since then I’ve DJ’d nearly 200 weddings and created so many incredible memories on the dance floor. Starting this journey showed me something powerful — I’m in control of my life. I don’t have to follow a standard 9–5 path if I’m willing to work for something I believe in.

About a year and a half ago I started a new project: Ray Callahan.

The idea was simple:
perform, make music I love, and spread joy.
House + Disco + Sax.

Even though the project is still new, it has already taken me to stages across Minneapolis and Chicago, and I’ve fallen completely in love with it.

Last summer I started running into a problem.

Ray Callahan and DJ Mitch began to conflict. I would get offered gigs in Chicago or Minneapolis for Ray Callahan, but I was already booked for weddings that had been scheduled a year or more in advance. Turning those opportunities down honestly broke my heart, because Ray Callahan is my mission and my art.

It became clear that if I wanted to take Ray Callahan seriously, I needed to step back from weddings. Over the past year I’ve turned down five major opportunities that could have helped grow the project.

So with that being said…

2026 will be my final year DJing weddings.

I currently have 11 weddings booked this year, and even though it’s my last season, they’re going to be extra special.

I truly love weddings and helping couples feel relaxed and excited on their big day. Being part of those moments has meant a lot to me.

But Ray Callahan is the dream I’ve been chasing my whole life.

And I’m ready to take the next step.

Thankful for a very successful 2025 !

When I first started DJaying weddings It was my goal to get at least 30 a year... As time has gone on my focus has shifted. I focus on quality over quantity. I now only do around 10-15 weddings a year which allows me to take more time preparing for each one. Whether that be the music, how I speak on the mic, or just remembering more about my couples.

I did 12 weddings this year. I am so thankful that i get blessed with amazing clients that bring me so much joy in making there day spectacular. These are just a few of the couples i had this year.

Looking ahead to 2026: I have ten weddings booked so far.
In 2026 I will also be doing weddings in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Colorado!

I'm still adding a few more weddings to next year so if you know anyone getting married who wants a night they will never forget. I can help make that happen!

Mel and Don were one of the first supporters of my business back in 2021! I always looked forward to DJaying weddings at barns of lost creek because they always checked in with me throughout the day and even helped me load stuff out at the end of the night. Was very sad to hear they were selling over the winter but I am very glad Steve and Ann have stepped up to keep this beautiful property alive and well!

Always an honor to DJ a friends wedding! Thanks so much Sam and Taylor! Man do you guys know how to throw a party! Dance floor was on fire all night!
This wedding was in Illinois which means I only have 45 states to go until I’ve Djayed in every state!

This photo means so much to me! On the right is Brandon and Ali with their two sons. On the Left is Danielle and Charlie who got married this past weekend. Brandon was my roommate in college (also a saxophonist) and I asked if I could DJ his wedding in 2019! I had no idea what I was in for and he let me do it. He rented speakers and a microphone and I just brought my controller and a laptop. No lights. Just me on the mic and DJaying. Two years later I started my own business DJaying weddings. And 5 years after Brandon’s wedding, his wonderful Sister Danielle got married this past weekend to Charlie. They saw me DJ my first wedding and knew they had to book me for their wedding. I’ve done about 150 weddings since that first one and it’s so awesome that even that first one went well enough to book me this one! Both these couples mean so much to me! It went fantastic and I hope I can DJ for their family again . :)

So much fun at the beautiful Garden Valley Gatherings! Sam and Shae’s wedding was nothing short of amazing! Even got to play Sax while my friend Jerrett played guitar for the ceremony!
