More details to this question:
So what happened was that I booked a family dj for my wedding and my parents and him were doing the money transaction. I knew nothing about how much the dj was going to charge. Just that my mother was going to take care of the bill. Now since we cancelled the wedding he didn't get paid and wants me (the almost bride) to pay or he will put a lein on my house. The thing is it was a verbal agreement between my mother, sister and him. I was not involved in payment at all. Can he still do this?

If you have no contract with him - he cannot sue you let alone put a lien on your house. Threatening to do so is a vioalton of Fla. Stat. 559. and he could be sued for damages.
