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!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute best experience with SpaceCat! From the planning stages to ease of payments (and willingness to split up payments), to the party itself. 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. At the end of the night, the encore was in such high demand, we paid to keep them on another hour! Please, don't hesitate when booking with them! We love you, Spacecat!

Amplified Events Michigan is an award winning DJ brand synonymous with personalized touch, clean appearance, beautiful sound, and ease. We care about your wedding as much as you do and we strive to cultivate relationships with vendors and venues to ensure your day is a team effort.

I cannot recommend Amplified Events MI enough!! I first discovered them at a wedding at Journeymans and they kept the night seamless. We wanted a DJ for our wedding that took our playlist seriously while also giving some creative freedom, so I asked for their information. Let me tell you - they did not disappoint!! DJ Jeff kept the dancing electric and there was never a moment where the floor was empty. He was so helpful throughout the planning process and answered all my 100 questions as an anxious bride. We decided to go with the uplights & photobooth as well, which we can say was the best decision!! It added the perfect ambiance & our family raved about the photos they got to take home. The Michigan team was basically our wedding coordinator for the whole process & especially on the day of, so we couldn’t have done it without them. He even custom edited a song for my father/daughter dance so I could have both parts I liked. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for making our wedding unforgettable!! I can’t wait to add photos once we get them back :)

I have seen first hand how he deals with his clients, and other vendors could learn something from the way he takes time to learn as much as possible about your event, stays in contact as much or as little as you need, and always comes through with everything his couples need, and more. You really can’t go wrong. 11/10 A

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!

All I can say is wow! T.J. and the Cosmic Groove band was nothing short of incredible! Not only are they extremely talented musicians who are great at bringing the energy to the party and keeping guests dancing the whole night, but they are incredibly professional as well. Cosmic Groove was the highlight of our wedding! Multiple guests were saying how amazing the band was and asking how we found them! T.J. was so organized, an excellent communicator, and so very accommodating. We loved working with him every step of the way! He went out of his way to ensure we had the perfect day, and we certainly did. We had guests of all ages attending, and at one point there was hardly any room left on the dance floor because everyone was dancing and having a great time! Book them now and you definitely won't regret it! We were so impressed and if we could get married again, we'd book them again!

Cool. Elegant. Fun NightBeat Entertainment understands that you don’t want the same old cheesy wedding DJ’s, which is why we offer elegant, modern and professional DJ services and entertainment for your wedding or other special event. The husband + wife duo Johnny and Michelle have over 30 years of experience in Oakland County and Michigan. Together, we have reinvented what it means to have a wedding by creating unbelievable experiences with high energy, amazing lighting, and the coolest options.. You will never have to worry about your wedding reception with NightBeat Entertainment.

From a vendor perspective it's such a breathe of fresh air to find a DJ willing to work closely with Photographers. We don't always have a lot of time in the evening because of the hours booked, but Johnny ensures that we are totally covered & communicates throughout the evening about time, what we need etc to make it all happen for the couple. Not a ton of DJs work cohesively with us & it truly makes it easy for our couples! Not to mention he really gets the dance floor jamming! I personally am a photographer jamming out in between grabbing photos of the couple with their friends & family on the dance floor! You will be making an EXCELLENT choice booking Johnny for your wedding day!

I've known Ryan almost as long as I have been in the industry. The services he provides go well above & beyond just being a DJ! He cares about his clients & giving them the experience they are dreaming of. With a wide range of add ons from uplighting to customized song lists you can tailor your experience in partnership with him. In an industry where we see 20-30 new couples a year it means so much to him that you leave feeling like you were cared for but more importantly that you're family. From a vendor perspective Ryan adamantly believes in being part of the team, works swell with video + photo teams (like myself) to ensure we are staying on schedule for the day, but that none of your essential moments are captured!
