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 used MY Event DJ on the recommendation of another couple. Greg and BJ met with us and planned everything so we didn't have anything to worry about. Nothing was missed, and I even changed a few things on the fly.... no problem. Use them, they are great, and reasonably priced.

Our bands cover Top 40 hits, fiery versions of Soul, smooth versions of Motown, elegant jazz classics, toe-tapping bluegrass, and country - it all exists among the performers we work with!

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. 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!

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.

His energy was the entire vibe of our reception. His DJ booth looked so high class. I enjoyed Nicks company like he was one of my guests and everything he did went off perfectly. His blend from song to song was incredible. It’s the difference a party needs to keep the energy from dying between songs. Do not skip out on getting a DJ who knows how to do this AND can prove it to you before you sign a contract. The number of Djs who told me I just had to trust them was terrifying. Nick had no problem showing me his work before hand AND he was exactly the same way on my wedding day. Can’t say enough amazing things about him

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”

DJ Triplicate was such an incredible choice. From our initial consultation, he was empathetic and compassionate about our situation. We had to split up our payments due to finances being tight but that did not affect how he was eager to understand our vision, and incredibly prompt in every communication. It was beyond obvious that his efforts were above and beyond what we paid for.

Everyone at Born to DJ was helpful, professional, not to mention patient with our endless questions! They were so supportive throughout our planning process and their communication was top notch. At the actual wedding and reception, James did a superb job of keeping the dance floor filled, changing the music to fit the crowd. He ensured that the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing music was in line with our requests. He always asked for our ideas and preferences, but had a knack for knowing when we needed to use his expertise. We were his first Filipina Money Dance couple!! :) Even my husband, who admits he is NOT a dancer, was on the floor most of the night with me! From what our friends tell us, James kept the party going after we left! They are truly a first class company and we would highly recommend them to anyone we know. Thank you Born to DJ for helping make our fairytale wedding a dream come true!

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!
