Our wedding was at Erickson Farmstead July 13th, 2024. We were very un organized. We forgot to submit our music, despite the texts, calls, and emails, we just were focused on other parts of the wedding. We didn't realize how much this DJ company actually does! The DJ showed up and he was driven to make sure things were perfect! As expected, the dance floor was packed, amazing song after amazing song. When I'd try and leave, he'd put on the next song and right back out there! It was sooooo good. I've never been to a wedding where everyone dance all night and had the level of dedication and knowledge than DJ Sound. THIS is the ONLY comoany to go with.

DJ Services By Paul Young 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $695
  • Serves Hastings, MN

I’ve done over 3000 weddings, and this experience pays off in many ways, from musical knowledge to skills required to mix the music in exciting ways. As I “read the room” I take requests, and time the playing of each track based on YOUR taste in music- I guarantee to follow your “must play” list, “do not play” list. Unlimited, personal planning time is included with me, personally, who will be your actual DJ (not a subcontractor).

Awarded Best of Zola
Paul was very communicative and friendly. He was very helpful in planning the whole day! We booked him for the ceremony and reception and he did a great job! He was also very flexible when my anxiety as the bride decided to change a couple things up last minute and not do the shoe game and move up the first dance. He took requests and even played songs that I didn't even know existed when he was asked. My husband and I asked for a specific song that meant a lot to us and he even was able to play that, even though the band is a small Minnesota band. His pricing is also very reasonable and I heard he was better than other DJs that have higher price points. Definitely recommend him!

Nicholas Thomas Entertainment was fantastic to work with for our wedding! Their communication throughout the planning process was exceptional - they were always checking in to see if we had any questions or needed help with anything music-related. On the day of our wedding, their DJ was so in tune with our favorite songs and kept the dance floor packed all night long. The only minor downside was that our social hour location wasn't able to have music, but overall their service and value was fantastic. I'd give them a 9/10 rating and highly recommend them to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding entertainment team.

DJ Mitch Entertainment

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,695
  • Serves Hastings, MN

Hi, my name is Mitch! I grew up surrounded by music. I started playing saxophone in 5th grade and pretty much from then on music has encompassed my life. After graduating from college with a music degree and working in customer service for over 3 years, the thought of combining my passion for music and love of serving people always sounded too good to be true! My number one goal is to help you craft an unforgettable wedding, one note at a time! How do I do that? by getting to know you and catering to your likes and dislikes! Also with my secret weapon! (my saxophone)

We cannot express enough praise and gratitude for Mitch! We had the privilege of working with him for our wedding on 7/6/24. From preplanning meetings to the wedding day, Mitch was extremely on top of everything to ensure our wedding day ran smoothly. He also communicated with our other vendors on the day of the wedding to ensure everyone was on the same page! When we had our live acoustic guitarist back out somewhat suddenly, we reached out to Mitch for references. To our surprise, he offered us an even better idea to have him play sax and a friend play guitar at the ceremony. All of our guests absolutely loved it and it brought a really special feel to the ceremony. On top of that, the energy he brings to MCing got our guests super excited and involved! Part of our package included having Mitch play Sax at the reception… JUST DO IT! It was so fun having him jump on the dance floor and interact with our guests! Mitch made our wedding a day to remember for all, and we cannot recommend him enough. Thank you DJ Mitch!

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.

Lake String Quartet

  • Ceremony only
  • Starts at $700
  • Serves Hastings, MN

We provide beautiful string music for your elegant ceremony or reception. We love working with you to tailor the music to your tastes. In addition to the classical repertoire we offer a broad range of Jewish, Scandinavian, Irish and contemporary popular music.

The Lake string Quartet was so easy to work with they were so seamless coordinating with me, the officiant, and my coordinator. I told them everything that I wanted, and they gave me so much more. My one recommendation to anyone is have your handful of songs that you really want played by the string Quartet, but then trust the experts to also pick out songs that they would recommend. What I did was I provided them a list of songs that I really wanted to hear and then let the experts do what they do best and pick out whatever song they thought would match the vibes from the guests.
