In 1910, President Taft signed the bill to establish Glacier National Park as the country’s 10th national park. Mr. Healy was given a plumbing contractor for the train depot here in St. Paul, where he met Samuel Bartlett, the architect of many of the railroad depots and Glacier National Park Lodge. Healy then commissioned Bartlett to renovate and enlarge the house. In 1914, the farm was sold to John Healy, the owner of Healy Plumbing and Heating Company of St. Paul. Mr. Healy’s company became closely tied to the Great Northern Railroad, as it provided the heating and plumbing for many of the train depots that were being built around the country at that time. The farm was named Hope Glen Farm, the name of John Healy’s mother’s maiden name of Hope, and the house settles in a Glen, thus Hope Glen.

“Our wedding at Hope Glen was absolutely beautiful. Michael and Paula have done a wonderful job making the property look nice and have great staff. The treehouse was amazing to be able to stay in the night of and we will absolutely be going back sometime. The only thing that came up was the girl who did our morning orientation did a very poor job. She was young and didn't really seem to know what she was talking about, and left us with little to no helpful information day of. There were a few things, such as the hanging basket that she wouldn't have even told us how to do if we didn't ask, which isn't helpful because we don't know the venue like she does. Ultimately, I would absolutely go back if I could! I look forward to reliving the memories everytime I drive by!!”

“I own a wedding venue and we do over 80 weddings per year. We see a lot of photographers each year and it is clear that there are people who own expensive cameras and then there are photographers. A true photographer has an eye for the right light at the right angle at the right exposure at the right focus at the right distance. Michelle is one of the true photographers.

Our team has filmed over 100 weddings – we love to bring our creativity into each setting and each wedding film. Let’s talk about how we can capture your wedding day.

“I connected Matt to a couple I was working with for their wedding. They had a photographer I had not worked with before already hired before they hired me so I had no say in it. Needless to say, their photographer was horrible and I don't think they even edited any photos. Just dropped what looked like 1200 cell phone photos onto a disc for my clients, so they couldn't even share them with family and friends. I am so glad we had Matt there to capture some really special parts of the day and to give me couple some great memories they would not have had otherwise! Thanks Matt for picking up the slack!”

“Tracy & Kyle are fantastic artists and teammates! They made our wedding experience such a fun journey every step of the way and we were blown away by how fantastic all of our photos turned out in both our engagement and wedding day photos. We met with them in-person twice for consultations and felt so comfortable talking with them and sharing our experiences as fellow wedding-industry workers. The rate at which we received our photos after our engagement shoot and our wedding was perfect! They sent a few samples that showed the quality and attention to detail, and the remaining complete albums were sent within a week! So fast but so much attention to detail and great editing. We also loved their blog posts as a way to share photos with friends and family and we enjoyed browsing other couples' albums as well! As a same-sex mixed race couple, we really appreciated their wide portfolio of diverse couples of LGBTQIA and BIPOC clients.”

She was thorough, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. She truly went above and beyond, ensuring we got all the shots we wanted and some we didn't even know we needed! The quality of her work is exceptional - she is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and brought a fun energy to the day. Every photo we've seen has exceeded our expectations, and she even uploaded our sneak peek photos quickly so we could share them with our loved ones.

“We booked through Steve upfront and he was so terrific to work with on initial arrangements. Our DJ, Drew, was absolutely fantastic! He handled both our ceremony and reception music, and everything was seamless from start to finish. The ceremony music was perfect, the timing was exactly right, and he helped create the exact feeling we wanted for the day. He used my Spotify playlists as inspiration for our pre-ceremony and cocktail hour music, so those moments felt completely like us and set the perfect vibe from the beginning. For the reception, he did an amazing job reading the room, keeping the energy going, and making sure everything flowed without us ever having to worry about what was happening next. One of the things we appreciated most was how much he cared about making the day personal. He worked behind the scenes with our officiant and friends on a few surprises, and those little moments ended up meaning so much to us. We wanted our wedding to feel relaxed, personal, and like a true celebration with our favorite people, and Drew played such a big part in creating that atmosphere.

What began in 1998 has grown into DJ Sound Productions; a team built through decades of weddings, music, technology, change, hard work and a genuine love for what we do. More than 10,000 weddings and events later, we’ve earned awards, expanded our team, and overcome plenty of challenges, but one thing has never changed: our commitment to getting better. We’re not perfect, but we’re experienced, prepared and passionate. Everything we’ve built as a company exists for one reason: to give every couple a wedding that feels uniquely, unmistakably and completely theirs.

“Our one and only day, July 27th, 2024, that no one can ever take back and redo. So we needed a comoany we could trust, and that wasn't a one size fits all. This company, you don't have to pick your DJ, they match the perfect one for you, and they did. It took a lot of trust and confidence put into them for this. But they nailed it. Told me they never go home early. That was also true. Danced all night. But, BUT.....The DJ's voice was amazing. Out grand march.....holy mazing! This DJ made it like we were stars and that set the mood and expectation for the rest of the night and man, did they deliver. They played every song we wanted, our guests music, and also picked ones that fit us very well. I'd say, over all A. Wouldn't look anywhere else as they have 23 DJs that fit every aspect of every wedding. Nice and job well done.”

“We recently held a retirement party at the Stillwater Event Center, and it was the perfect venue! The space was beautiful, with a great layout for our guests, and the outdoor patio was an amazing place to relax and celebrate. Having bartending services and an on-site caterer made everything so easy, and the food and drinks were excellent. The staff was professional, accommodating, and helped make the entire event run smoothly from start to finish.

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).

“DJ Services By Paul Young was an excellent choice for our wedding. From the very first interaction, Paul was prompt, informative and friendly, putting us at ease about the music and entertainment for our big day. On the wedding day, Paul's flexibility and great timing kept the party going all night. Even though we didn't have a big wedding, DJ Paul still managed to give us an amazing celebration that our guests are still talking about. We highly recommend DJ Services By Paul Young for any couple looking for a talented DJ who will work with you to make your wedding reception unforgettable. (Clouds in photo added for privacy)”
