We had DSM Dance Party DJs for our wedding and honestly couldn't have asked for better. From our first conversation, they were quick to respond and worked with us on every detail we wanted to adjust. On the day of, they kept the energy high and the dance floor packed from start to finish. Their professionalism took so much stress off our shoulders, and we were able to just enjoy the night instead of worrying about the music or logistics. Our guests are still talking about how fun the party was. We'd absolutely book them again and would recommend them to any couple looking for a DJ.

DJ Clife is the best!! He just helped us with our wedding and was amazing to work with! He knows so much about curating the right energy and creating an event that keeps people engaged and excited. Our guests absolutely loved him! Our shuttle bus was overflowing at the end of the night because so many people stayed. We loved how the songs flowed and how he incorporated our song preferences. The sound system was amazing too! He was able to make 3 hours of dancing never feel boring or repetitive. Different moments were introduced to keep the night fresh! Leading up to the wedding he was so thoughtful and truly got to know us and what we were looking for in an event. I would 1000% recommend.

I found Mike via thumbtack & although on there it stated he was booked on my wedding date I thought I’d still reach out to him. I’m so happy I did because he put me in touch with our dj, thankyouteddy and he did an awesome job djing for our wedding! Mike was very informative and gave me plenty of information. He also has you do a questionnaire to help narrow down the right dj for you based off your music preferences. Mike will reached out periodically to follow up & also puts you in touch with the dj the week of the wedding to go over details. Teddy arrived on time and kept everyone on our toes throughout the night. The only thing I will say, is if you’re doing bridal party introductions it’s best to rehearse it if possible. Or give an exact time of the song for your dj to play when each couple comes out.

Nickly Avalo Studios was perfect from beginning to end. Nicky himself was so helpful and explained all of my options and answered all of my questions. He was always available to help me and the communication throughout the whole process was excellent! DJ Mike was great! He had everyone dancing all night. Our MC Danny was amazing too.

Alternative Wedding DJs 
Rating: 5.0 (35 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Altoona, IA for additional fees

Stereotypical wedding DJs spoil the fun. They play the same songs (boring). There are gaps between songs (awkward). And they talk on the mic too much (obnoxious). We’re the alternative. We beat match & blend music (non-stop dancing) We use the mic appropriately (vibe isn’t ruined) We personalize the playlist with your input (you’ll love the music) If you say things like, “We’re having a non-traditional wedding!,” or “We need to blend our multicultural families,” or “I’ll die if my domineering future mother-in-law demands that the DJ to play her QVC album collection,” ... then we're for you!

When planning my wedding, I knew finding the right DJ was going to be my hardest moment. I’m in that time of life where we have a few weddings a year, and you can almost certainly find me on the dance floor from the moment it opens to the last song, only leaving for bathroom breaks or to pull friends to the floor. Finding Alternative Wedding DJs was one of those serendipitous moments and I knew it was meant to be. From the website being transparent (let’s be real, a lot of vendors hide details and waste your time, but these guys don’t), to hearing samples I knew this was going to be the best decision for my wedding. Their vibe and energy is palpable, even from a digital screen. They worked secretly with my family to coordinate a surprise flashmob from my favorite movie and handled requests as if they had the ability to read my mind (yes, Rasputin Just Dance choreography came out). If you’re looking to have the best dance floor of your life, call Alternative Wedding DJs. You won’t regret it.

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. His humor kept the guest entertained. Not only is Andrew a great dj during the night but throughout the whole planning process. He was responsive answering all the questions. Andrew is a very kind compassionate person as well. He checked in with us (bride and groom) throughout the night. Not only were we impressed with his hard work but we got many compliments from the guest. Everyone loved is humorist charismatic personality.

  • Serves Altoona, IA for additional fees

Hey, I'm Ben! A Minneapolis-based singer-songwriter whose music has been featured on ABC's Nashville, and in American Songwriter magazine. I delight in creating unforgettable wedding experiences, with the perfect song at the perfect moment. With over two decades performing at iconic Twin Cities venues like First Avenue, the Fitzgerald and State Theaters, and touring nationally and internationally, I specialize in delivering heartfelt acoustic performances that resonate emotionally and spiritually with couples and guests.

We were planning a small wedding on a modest budget but knew the music had to be something special. As longtime fans of Romantica and Ben Kyle, we reached out to see if he’d perform at our ceremony and we’re so glad we did! Ben was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He helped us select the perfect mix of songs, including a mix of his originals and a beautiful cover that fit seamlessly into our ceremony. His music brought such heart and authenticity to our day, and his communication throughout the process was excellent. Truly one of the highlights of our wedding!
