Adam was so great as our DJ! We loved getting to chat with him multiple times before the big day and he did a great job. He also let me try out the turn tables and that was super fun!

Parker Marshall Entertainment

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Elk Rapids, MI

We are a group of DJs in the Little Traverse Bay region with a singular mission to make the best day of your life also the best night of your life for you and your guests. We'll turn your reception into a "real" real party: the kind where your guests hobble home sore drenched from dancing too much thinking "What did we just experience?" We are entertainers. We will read the room and plug into you and your guests tastes. We will even get your grandma grooving. We will arrive extra early, have everything dialed in, and give you and your guests the party they deserve. We have fun.

DJ Parker Marshall, was certainly one of the highlights of Lydia and I’s special day. From the moment he began the evening with quiet and soft jazz music for the cocktail and hors d’oeuvres hour, he was able to match the energy of the night with ease. He even played some authentic Hispanic music to make sure my family heard something familiar and enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend DJ Parker with so much faith for your special day. He even danced to some ABBA towards the end of the night and tastefully added a nice touch of performance “with the show”. Lydia and I couldn’t haven’t been happier with where he took us that night and are pleased to write this review open heartedly. Book him! Don’t think about it anymore, planning a wedding is tough, so move forward and make your event a success with Parker. - Lydia and Niel

We love this band and can't wait to hear them again! The band worked with us to learn songs that were special to us and it made our night so unique. They were able to set up before the party started and we used their speaker services during cocktail hour/dinner. The band is huge - so many talented artists and musicians and incredible range of vocals. People have not stopped telling us how much fun they had at our wedding.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

I planned our entire wedding and reception and coordinated it all, too. My new bride told me that with my personality, my intense desire to always provide phenomenal customer service, my love of music, my business skills, and the awesome job I did with our wedding and reception, I should start doing it for other couples. The dream was born, and a year later, we were in business. That was 10 years ago. It has been an awesome ride!

Absolutely great to work with! As another vendor, they were so sweet and very communicative. They were super flexible when we had to move around due to a storm coming through and I was able to get some great shots of the dance floor cause everyone was having such a great time!
