We could not do it without you! Steven and Katti you are the most amazing wedding planners ever! First of all I need to express sincere gratitude for everything you helped us with. Starting with choreography of our first dance. Steven put so much heart and effort to teach us. Everyone said at the wedding that we should be next for audition for Dancing with the stars show. The planning for the wedding was so great. You captured every single detail on the books. Katti was so involved into the day of coordinating and did an amazing job! Our DJ Adam was great! He played everything we asked for and kept the audience so entertained! Steven Carter's Events are so professional, fun and so pleasant to work with. I already miss them so much! If I could give you 10 stars I definitely would!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Kenny Fiesta as our DJ for our wedding in 2022, and he exceeded all of our expectations. Not only did he keep our dance floor packed all night, but his skills as an MC truly elevated the energy of the entire event. This weekend we attended another wedding where he worked his magic, and once again, he was off the charts! His incredible uplighting transformed the space into something spectacular, and he had everyone—young and old—on their feet, dancing nonstop. His ability to read the crowd and keep the vibe alive is unmatched.

Sharon Valley Harp, LLC

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves Great Lakes, IL for additional fees

By the time she was three years old, Olivia Claggett was asking for a harp teacher. At six years old, she began taking piano lessons with Jean Wonders, and at eight she began Suzuki harp lessons with professional harpist, instructor, and adjudicator Candyce Dunham. She never looked back after her first lesson in October 2007. During her many years as a student, Olivia continued to push herself musically by competing in numerous competitions winning the annual Buckeye Christian School Organization’s spring competition for five consecutive years.

Awarded Best of Zola
Olivia is the type of person that when you look up the definition of class, shes listed there. Truly kind and wonderful to work with, her music is beautiful and fluid. I would not recommend many when it comes to live music work but her work on the harp is truly an art. You will never go wrong with trusting her to provide music and atmosphere for your event.

There's something authentic, warm, and alive about acoustic finger style guitar. I'll never forget the first time I photographed a wedding where Jim played. His smile was as infectious as the music. Since then I've gotten to know more about Jim's solo guitar work as well as the Jasmine + Perona duo where he's accompanied by his (soon to be) wife on vocals. Give them an audition and bring some authenticity to your event.

  • Serves Great Lakes, IL for additional fees

With over 15 years of experience providing entertainment for events, we know that professionalism and customization are paramount. Milwaukee Airwaves strives to make your event memorable, understanding that your needs and preferences come first. Meeting with your DJ to discuss all the details will ensure you get the experience you deserve. Whatever you want your event to be, Milwaukee Airwaves will make it a reality.

Let me start off with saying that my husband is a dj and we are both absolutely music snobs. We know good music and it’s not hard for us to tell a talented dj from one that just presses play. KENDRICK WAS AMAZING. So was his help that came. He was incredible at rounding people up, directing the night, and most importantly…. Mixing music. I can’t recommend him and the company enough. If music is important to you, BOOK THEM!
