Customer experience with a splash of personalization. We were in a bind to get a DJ for our wedding and were incredibly lucky we found Collins Entertainment!! Owner Jim and DJ Maurice were incredibly organized, professional and so much fun to work with!! The response time and personalization of this company absolutely blew me away!!! Thank you for being so flexible with all of our changes (even some last minute ones!). We had very specific instructions for out first dance and DJ Maurice did a phenomenal job! He kept the party going all night!! Thank you so much Collins Entertainment for making so many memories with us! - Kelly C

    DJ Jared provided much more than the soundtrack to our wedding. He arrived early to ensure the sound for our ceremony - including mics for our officiant and readers. For cocktail hour, he played the perfect mix of classic and contemporary music and was a great emcee for speeches throughout dinner. Once the dance floor opened, he incorporated our must-play songs with some of his own selections, as well as requests from our guests. It all added up to a great night with great energy.

  • Everything we were hoping for and beyond!

    We booked Collins Entertainment for our October wedding at the Interlaken Inn in Lakeville, CT. We had an unbelievably amazing experience with this company from the top to the bottom. Our DJ, Jared, was exceptional with music selection, a master emcee, was accommodating and seemed to be everywhere at once. My guests left saying he was the best DJ they've ever seen at a wedding for how many hits he put out. He was able to read the crowd really well, and knew how to get everyone on the dance floor. Jared had battery-powered setups for both the ceremony and reception, so we didn't have to worry about outlets in a remote area outdoors, which was very nice. Our planning sessions with Jim, Mitch, and Jared were comprehensive and they gave us all the tools we needed to succeed. The package price was very reasonable too, and was a leading factor for why we chose them as well. We used their mirror photo booth as well, which was very fun. The mirror booth even came with a long red carpet! The operator, Randall, was very accommodating and helpful with guests, making it fun and easy for everyone. We highly recommend Collins Entertainment!

    My husband and I got married September 16th at St Clements. Let me just start off by saying, Collins goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is perfect. We had Jared as a DJ and a lot of people never left the dance floor (me being included). They made the night. Thank you so much! I promise, you won’t be disappointed with Collins.

  • Excellent, from planning to dancing!

    When we first looked into hiring a DJ, we thought it was as simple as picking someone to play music and get the dance floor going. But we were impressed with how much more there was to it, and Collins Entertainment had it all covered from start to finish! There were so many details that we had not considered, like doing a "farewell dance" towards the end of the night. They also offered perspectives that we had not considered, like the benefits of doing wedding party introductions since we had not done programs. Because there is a team of DJs and they take incredible notes, it also means that there is a seamless transition in case of any emergencies. Our original DJ had a family medical emergency, but his colleague was able to step in without missing a beat (pun intended). We highly recommend!
