Karli was an amazing addition to our wedding day! Her communication throughout the planning process was always quick and clear. On our wedding day Karli brought so much high energy and enthusiasm to her role as our DJ and emcee. She worked with our coordinator to ensure all the details for the ceremony were exactly how we envisioned. Once the reception started, she kept the dance floor packed all night long. Her music selections were spot-on for our taste. We booked Karli after seeing her in action at a friend’s wedding and she was a phenomenal addition to our wedding day. We highly recommend Karli for your wedding or event if you’re looking for a DJ who is professional and super fun as well.

We found Greg and BJ at a local bridal show. We talked with them and loved what they offered. We met with them a few weeks later, and felt very comfortable. We hired them for our ceremony and reception. At our meeting before the wedding, we filled out planners for everything I wanted to happen. The day of, the ceremony went great. They played music 30 minutes before for FREE! They put mics on the Pastor and my Groom Charles so we could be heard. The music was timed perfectly. In the reception they played easy jazz music during dinner. Our dances and cake cutting went without a hitch. They then started the dance music and we had a blast! The music sounded great, and was a wide range of music to include everybody of all ages. I would recommend them to everyone. They are very good at what they do.

Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

Weddings are a big deal. It is a celebration of you making an eternal commitment to the person that you love more than anything. You would go to the ends of the earth for them, just to make them happy. So why would you risk the celebration of that love on a bargain bin DJ? I have read the horror stories. Seen the Reddit posts. It would have been such a beautiful wedding, and amazing memory… if the DJ didn’t ruin the entire thing. With DJ Triplicate, what you receive is consummate professionalism. Service that goes above and beyond. One on one attention with time, care, and empathy. “Don’t let a cheap wedding DJ happen to you”

This guy really blew my mind! Very professional, and reasonable with the pricing. He got a lot of information from me about what we wanted, and what kind of performance we would like. Kept the party going, and is funny to boot! Man should be doing bigger shows, a lot of talent! I would definitely hire him again.

All of our guests have continued to comment on how great the music was and what a wonderful job our DJ team did. We had quite a varied crowd at our wedding; different ages, different nationalities and lots of different genres. Somehow the DJ managed to please them all and I can honestly say our dance floor was never empty! We had a long, 7 hour, recepetion, and the DJ never missed a beat!
