DJ Obie 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Waterloo, IA

I got into DJing by accident. After learning that working as an Industrial Engineer in a fortune 500 company didn't bring me much fulfillment, a friend suggested I join his DJ company. His company supplied DJ services for over 200 weddings a year! After my first wedding gig I was hooked. It gave me purpose, and an outlet I never knew was possible. I quickly became the most requested DJ in the company and within my market. Now I DJ on my own, and I'm so blessed to be able to curate an atmosphere of joy where families can connect.

I've worked with Obie many times over the years and love running into him outside of events. He always bring the highest level and most genuine energy to every wedding. He truly cares that every guest is having a great time and that couples are well taken care of through their wedding day. Obie brings the fun and makes sure everyone is on the dance floor. He is also very communicative and caring of his relationships with other vendors, as well.

Jake and Mike were fantastic, we got so many compliments on everything from the dinner music to the main event. They even accommodated a late addition ask of them to cover the ceremony which as the Bride I had no time for. Couldn't be more pleased, Jakes communication was outstanding and really put my mind at ease knowing I wouldn't have anything surprises to worry about!

Megan and Logan were great to work with in the early stages, and then Ali & Drake took over about a month before! They all were fantastic to work with and I could definitely tell that Ali & Drake were the best match for my wedding. I wasn't sure what to think about booking a company that matches a DJ to your wedding after booking, but they really did take the time to find what music style I liked and which DJ was going to vibe the best. Highly recommend!!!! The entire planning process was so easy with them and the online portal was so simple to use! They truly made my day exceptional!

DJ Davin Titus 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,300
  • Serves Waterloo, IA

Elevate your event experience. I provide premium sound system, dance floor lighting, tube lighting, full room dynamic up lighting, live DJ mixing, and emceeing, to any event you are imagining. I try to help any potential client gain a better perspective on the importance of not only hiring someone to play a role as a "DJ" - (aka someone who simply plays music) but also having that same person actively assist with the flow of the event and truly becoming integrated within your event. If you feel like we would be a great fit, I'd love the opportunity to chat!

Davin was INCREDIBLE! He was an incredible communicator, extremely organized, was on top of everything before our wedding day and during, and was incredibly talented. He played music that we requested as well as adding songs that matched the vibe. I really liked that he was actually DJing too. It wasn’t just like a Spotify playlist playing. I don’t know the right words to use but he used remixes and added beats to songs that would normally be difficult to dance to. My now husband and I didn’t want to leave the dance floor. There were plenty of times when we wanted a break from dancing physically but then another great song would come on so we just ended up staying on the dance floor. I even heard guests say they were getting some fresh air for a second and then the song would change and they changed their minds too and kept dancing. Honestly you couldn’t ask for a better DJ for your event. Such a talented and great guy!

We could not have had a better experience than we did with Tyson and Marquee Events. After our first call with him, before we had booked, we hung up the phone and knew our search was over. We could tell we were going to be in the best hands possible for both us, and our guests. Tyson made everything easy from start to finish and helped us create the dream atmosphere that we envisioned. We want to do it all over again so we can relive the dance floor. Can't recommend him (or the CO2 cannons) enough - best entertainment in DSM, no questions asked.

Andrew is one pf the best DJs out there. He not only kept the dance floor energetic while playing clean music but kept the wedding running smoothly by doing amazing mc work.

I am a photographer and Dennis is on the top of my list of recommendations! Not only is he a joy to work with and be around, he's extremely professional and literally loves doing this job. ALL my couples love Dennis, always happy to help and step in even when it's not his job. We had a wedding together earlier this year and the seating chart was printed wrong and he stepped in and took it upon himself to call off the list and guide each guest to their correct table. Hands down the best DJ and human in the area. If you do one thing, HIRE DENNIS! You will not regret it.
