DJ Neal was absolutely amazing at our July wedding in Purcellville, VA! From start to finish, his communication was excellent—clear, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. Our venue had the ceremony site, cocktail hour, and reception all in three separate areas, and DJ Neal was more than accommodating with his setup. Everything transitioned seamlessly and without any stress for us. He truly went above and beyond with the lighting setup as well. It completely transformed the space and looked incredible—it added so much to the overall atmosphere of the reception and the pricing was very inexpensive. Compared to other DJs we considered, his package options were incredibly well-priced for the level of service and quality he delivered. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience and would highly recommend DJ Neal to anyone looking for a professional, talented, and reliable DJ for their event!

Summit Events was the perfect choice for our wedding entertainment! Having a fun dance floor and awesome music has been something that I have dreamed about forever. I was nervous to find the right fit and was so relieved to have found Summit Events. From the beginning, we ended up working with the DJ who would perform the night of. Chris Funkhouser (who seriously brought the funk!) was amazing to work with! During our consultations he was able to answer all our questions and concerns. He was able to put his swing on things from his experience to help provide the right vibes we were looking for. We pretty much already knew all the songs that we wanted to play so the program they used was perfect! It was detailed in the timing of the night, how long or short to play songs and any other special requests we wanted to have. On the night of the wedding, Chris was a blast -energetic, observant, and focused on keeping the dance floor alive all night long. He even joined us out there, helping to keep the party going strong! He was able to use his best judgement in placing some of the lighting and monogram details we chose which turned out great! We highly recommend Summit Events to any couple looking for top-notch entertainment for their wedding!

I had the BEST experience with Black Tie Entertainment working with Matt and Chris. Right away, Matt was so responsive in wanting to meet and hear about what we were looking for in DJ services. He was extremely thorough, organized, and detail oriented every time we met, and continued to be responsive throughout our entire planning experience. If I had any questions, he emailed back right away offering to jump on a call to help. Additionally, he went out of his way to purchase a fog machine and operate it himself for our wedding! It's so clear that he genuinely cares about his clients and will go above and beyond! When Matt introduced me to Chris, I knew right away he was going to be the best. He is so friendly and relaxed, yet thorough and extremely professional. We met several times in detail to confirm the timeline and songs, and he was so helpful to bounce ideas off of. He truly made that part of the planning process so much fun and made me so excited as I knew we were in good hands. He absolutely crushed it on our wedding day - from the songs and transitions to instructing the guests, he captivated the whole crowd with his energy - everyone was on the dance floor the ENTIRE time!! Lastly, their online planning tool was such a life saver for someone who is detail oriented. It was so nice to see every song we had lined up with our timeline from the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception - it was so easy to use and organized - truly took such a weight off! Matt and Chris took the best care of us, and I truly can't thank and recommend them enough!!

John and Carrie were such a delight to work with. John was so flexible when we talked with him and worked so hard to make our day really special. We are both Australian and so had a number of requests so that the music would be what we were hoping for and feel personal to us and our guests. John really took the time to talk with us and really understand what we wanted. I was having a tough time finding a DJ who would be open to so many personalization’s – a number of them were very strict on their own sets or wanting to ‘feel the vibe of the room’ to make decisions but John truly listened to us and our day would not have been the same without him. We also hired the photobooth through A2Z which Carrie took care of. All our guests had a fun and wonderful time and everything worked so seamlessly.
