I recently had the pleasure of booking Cello Joe to perform at my wedding and what a special experience it was!!! Joey is a true professional on all levels! From start to finish, communication was effortless and always on point. He even assisted us with setting up and dialing in the sound system. Now on to the important stuff... Cello Joe's performance bridged the spectrum of family and friends present for our wedding. It was such a magical experience seeing so many loved ones getting down to veggie maniac, bike girl and so much love :). Cello Joe delivered a performance that brought joy and smiles to everyone's experience. Overall I rate our experience 11/11. It was an honor to have such a talented musician perform and such a fun character to hang out with the rest of the event. Cello Joe's set was the musical highlight of our wedding.

The Djing was better than I could've imagined - DJ Demarkus was extremely organized upfront, provided a fantastic emcee who hit all the important cues, and made amazing song choices that kept our dance floor alive all night long. He took our relatively small playlist and seamlessly transitioned between songs, making great in-the-moment choices that matched the energy of the crowd.

The Party Down Live band was the perfect band for our wedding. They were responsive throughout the booking process, answered all of our venue-specific questions about set up for the day-of, then arrived early, set up without issue, and rocked until the last minute we had at the venue! The entire band is extremely talented and had the crowd energized and singing along the entire night. We had to have them after we saw them at another wedding, then they exceeded our expectations!

James was the DJ for my wedding just two weeks ago! Going into the planning process, I knew Born to DJ because James also did my sister's wedding. He is one of the only DJ's I know that constantly reads the crowd. If he can tell people aren't liking a song, he will change it to keep everything lively. I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it. That is not an easy thing to do but I have seen James keep people dancing and engaged at my sister's wedding and now mine. The planning couldn't have been easier, and I always felt reassured after speaking with him. Born to DJ couldn't have done better and I highly HIGHLY recommend them.

Where to begin. Tyler (DJ The Hacker) was more than just a DJ at our wedding. He helped us coordinate basically everything from start to finish. He gave us pointers and tips that were beyond helpful in creating a timeline and he was able to get everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, get up and start dancing with his song selections. He was very open with our “must play” list and made sure to include all of our selections. If you come across this review, seriously look no further. My now wife and I are very very big music fans and we knew that the DJ would be the life of the party. Tyler met and infinitely exceeded those expectations. Tyler, thank you so so much for DJing our wedding. You were one of the biggest reasons that the day was absolutely perfect

Born and raised in the Metro Detroit area. DJ iamchase is not just the #1 Celebrity Dj in West Michigan. He is also a Tour Dj, Record Breaker, and a Host. All while DJing Weddings, Corporate events, Concerts, and Night Clubs.

Our Dj, Terrell, did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding. He announced everything well, communicated with our wedding coordinator and the other vendors, played our requested song list, and consistently checked in on my (new!) husband and I throughout the evening to see if there was anything that he could help us with. On our song list, we noted that we didn't want any country music played (unless it was a specifically requested song), and when one of our guests asked him to play 'Cotton Eye Joe', Terrell even came up to me and asked me if it was okay because he wasn't sure if I considered that country music! Overall, we are VERY happy with terrell! My husband and I would definitely recommend to other couples who are planning a wedding!
