Drew from Crimson Events was our DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception. He did an absolutely phenomenal job! He worked with us beforehand to get a feel for us as a couple and what we wanted for our big day. He was very easy to work with both before and during the wedding. He kept our guests engaged and entertained. He was able to accurately read the room and tailor the music to keep everyone happy. When several guests requested karaoke (which was not discussed beforehand) he doublechecked that it was okay with us before moving forward. DJ’s at an event can definitely make or break an occasion. Drew definitely enhanced our wedding experience. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun DJ.

We met Tyler, by chance, through my mom's coworker and were so grateful to have him be part of our wedding ceremony. Tyler performed a number of beautiful acoustic and instrumental songs before, during, and after our ceremony and we couldn't have been happier and more impressed with the level of depth and emotion he brought to one of the most magical days of our lives. Tyler assisted me and my husband with choosing a number of songs from Elton John to Jackie Wilson, met with us both virtually and in person prior to our wedding, and, due to his professionalism and attention to detail of perfecting each song, we have the fondest memories of the light and love that accompanied our ceremony with his soulful music that brought us and our guests happy tears as well as to our feet to sing along in the chapel.

A few days before our wedding, I got a message from Al saying our DJ had COVID and that they were going to send someone else. I was super bummed because I had loved our original pick (DJ Marcus) who did a fantastic job DJing our friends wedding in 2021. The replacement DJ (DJ Jose) called us right away to review all the details of the night with us. I was still hesitant, but was beginning to feel more comfortable during the conversation. On wedding day, DJ Jose was kind, professional, punctual, and ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT on the dance floor!! No one sat down for the entire night and guests are STILL raving about DJ Jose! Many guests have even requested Jose's song selections for the entire day (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception) because they loved it so much! Props to Okyne for having such talented DJs that can pick up events for each other and still do a fantastic job. Al was very responsive and easy to work with, as well!
