Douglas Adam Entertainment 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,250
  • Serves Pekin, IN
  • Offer

Douglas Adam Entertainment is a wedding Traveling DJ business based out of Cincinnati, OH. Owner Doug and his team delight in helping couples throughout the metropolitan area and nationwide celebrate their special days. Douglas Adam Entertainment is driven by passion first and foremost.

Doug and Andrew made the best team at our wedding! We met Doug at a bridal show a year and a half before our wedding and liked him immediately. He really wants to help you create a wedding that is special and meaningful to you - not a cookie-cutter wedding with package after package he's trying to upsell you on. We were delighted when Doug told us that his partner, Andrew, was moving back to the area and would be working with him at our wedding. Doug talked with us several times throughout our planning process to help us think through the reception - specifically the flow and the feeling of each moment. At our final detail meeting, Doug and Andrew helped us finalize and ramp up some ideas we had been working on (rating speeches using giant numbers that the bridal party held up, us-themed bar trivia during dinner, kiss cam instead of traditional glass-clinking kisses) and also gave us options to add on his Freedom Sticks (party lighting to help make the room/dance floor fun) and several Polaroid cameras and a book to store the pictures in. We took advantage of both and were so happy we did! On the day of the event, Doug took the role of MC and walking around the room to get pictures of people/get everyone involved and Andrew took on the role of primary DJ. Together, they were such a fun team that really brought the party to life! We had SO MANY compliments on how fun they were and I have recommended them to all of my friends with upcoming weddings!! They perfectly matched our vibe to the music and worked hard to make sure that everyone had a great time. If you're looking for a DJ that cares about you as a couple and can bring the party, look no further!

I had the privilege of working with Apex Music earlier this year. As a wedding photographer, I’ve worked with several DJs and Jeff was the absolute best. He was on time (which always saves the couple and wedding party so much stress, and shocking don’t see often). He was so much fun and engaged with the party. He kept the vibe up, even when all that was left on the dance floor was the newlyweds and wedding party. We all had a blast and laughed so much. Jeff took the time to get to know the couple and the other vendors, which makes the day go smoothly. I could not recommend him enough!

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.

Dj Touché truly made planning my wedding a lot easier! I was a very chill bride which to some was great but to others it made things more difficult. Dj Touché has this awesome app that he sends you to choose music and I was overwhelmed with the choices! Dj touché was so patient with me and helped me pick great songs for my wedding! He even freestyled a little and he 100% nailed the vibe! The Photo Booth was truly a hit at my wedding and I had no idea I’d get to see all the pictures people were taking during the wedding! He had the pictures scrolling across the dj booth! He also had pictures of my husband and I displayed during the wedding and I had no idea he was going to do that! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!

Don’t trust uncle Jerry with the aux cord and Spotify playlist. Your big day deserves better. Your wedding is a celebration of your love, and the beginning of creating a life together with the person you love most. It is critical that you entrust it to a professional who will take the time and care to craft an experience that is impossible to forget. With me, above and beyond is an understatement. Music is my life, and it is such a massive honor to be able to provide the soundtrack to one of the biggest days of your life.

Dj Trey was a dream to work with! He was incredibly responsive from the start and corresponded back and forth as many times as it took to get everything perfect! He was understanding of our needs and our audience and it’s very apparent he loves what he does and has mastered his craft. We were so incredibly grateful for the professionalism, dedication to our big day, as well as the ability to make such beautiful decisions musically with our “more mature” set list. We would recommend him to anyone that needs assistance with a special event! We can’t thank you enough for giving such care to our marriage ceremony and reception. You were a pleasure to work with and good luck with your business venture!
