Summit Events and DJ Sean Markland were amazing to work with! Do you want to have the most epic dance party of your life at your wedding? Do you want your guests on the dance floor all night? Do you want the wedding playlist to be a reflection of you and your spouse's music choices? Then you want to book Summit Events ASAP. Our wedding DJ was Sean Markland and he was just phenomenal to work with. Prior to our wedding we had a lengthy call with Sean; my husband and I were very picky with our wedding playlist and had a rule of absolutely no traditional wedding reception songs or line-dances. We love electronic dance music (EDM) and wanted our wedding to be "festival/show vibes". We pretty much curated our own playlist of EDM, country, hip-hop, folk and I really wasn't sure how our guests would respond (and we really didn't care because it was our wedding), but the way Sean mixed and transitioned the songs and hyped up the dance floor kept the vibes going all night! We used Summit Events for our up lighting too - highly recommend as it was a great way to turn the room from a classy dinner reception to a dance party in one click! The sound quality was great for both speeches and music; we wanted to make sure guests could hear speeches clearly and we had no issues at all even though it was a large room. I also appreciated the Vibo app that we used to plan out our ceremony, entrances, first dances and our playlist for the night - it was a great tool that kept songs and notes in one place. We would definitely use Sean and Summit Events again and highly recommend them for the best night of your life!

Angelica was an incredible DJ for our wedding. She was very detail-oriented during the planning phase - asking all the right questions and making smart recommendations - and did a great job coordinating with the venue - and communicating with us while she did - making our lives easier. The day of, she was available for all kinds of last-minute questions and double-checks, solved any problems that came up, and was generally just someone we could trust to make it happen.

Dj Bess and Dj Tony were a great addition to our wedding day and we loved having them Dj our wedding. From booking them to the day of, the whole process was smooth and super enjoyable. Vince did a great job communicating with us and even giving us tips on things he’s experienced that helped make our day even more special. He went above and beyond our expectations and was worth every penny. From supplying us with sparklers to dance floor lights, and even a custom monogram, we couldn’t have asked for anything better. He did a great job with music selection despite having some issues with communication with our coordinator and while there was some confusion on a few announcements and some of the transitions, the overall experience was phenomenal! Hire hire hire! Compared to any other DJ, he gave us the most bang for our buck

Love & Light Entertainment was the perfect DJ choice for our wedding. From the beginning, Josh and Lynn were incredibly organized, responsive, and attentive to all the details. They worked closely with our wedding coordinator to ensure the music and timing for the night ran seamlessly. Josh was especially flexible and collaborative, working with us to create a custom dinner playlist where each table was called up to the buffet line by a song from the album on their table. This personal touch was a huge hit with our guests. We had a smoke machine for our first dance that was having trouble, Josh fixed it enough to use it for some of the dancing throughout the night. We had put some songs on the dancing section of the portal that is set up for each couple (which is amazing) those songs were not played during the reception. There was a requests page and we probably should have put the songs we really wanted there, it is more direct than putting it on the dancing section, something for others to keep in mind. Josh also played a groomsmen and bridesmaids song. The groomsmen’s song was perfect for them, if I had known, I probably would have changed the bridesmaids choice. We loved the music that was picked and everyone continues to tell us how they had not seen a wedding where the dance floor was full the whole time. We also continue to get positive comments on how great the music choices were. Everyone loved our phone audio guest book. Josh let us use any phone we wanted as long as it had the cables he needed which is great when wanting to have a phone that matches your theme. Love & Light has a variety of services and packages to pick and choose from to meet anyone’s needs. Overall, Love & Light provided professional, high-quality service that exceeded our expectations and helped make our wedding day truly special.

We were certain we wanted to work with Alex / Toussaint Productions halfway through our introduction call. We immediately knew that Alex would not only show up for us on our wedding day, but he would really get the party started. I think each of us (me, my husband, and Alex) were not sure how or what to expect from our diverse wedding guest list. Well, Alex worked his magic and had our dance floor PACKED throughout the entire reception! I still am blown away by just how epic and fun our ceremony was. I knew my people would show up, but Alex truly kept everyone going until it was time to bring the party elsewhere. Every single one of our guests raved about Alex to us after the wedding, and we still have people mentioning to us about how awesome our dj was. Aside from what he brought to the table on our wedding day, Alex and his team are professional, kind, and just simply passionate about their work. I would book with Toussaint Productions again and again, and cannot recommend them enough!
