I’m Skyler Matthias, the Founder and DJ of Gunnison Valley Entertainment. I started GVE in 2023 when I moved to the beautiful Gunnison Valley. Before launching this company, I honed my craft as a DJ with Complete Weddings and Events in St. Louis, MO, and Crown Entertainment in Little Rock, AR. Now based in Gunnison, CO, I love traveling all over Colorado to bring unforgettable music and moments to weddings and events JUST LIKE YOURS! Thank you for stopping by to learn more about GVE. I’m excited to talk with you about creating the perfect soundtrack for your special day.

Awarded Best of Zola
I knew when I booked Gunnison Valley Entertainment that I wouldn’t have anything to worry about when it came to my wedding ceremony or reception, but they truly blew me away snd went above and beyond! I didn’t have a wedding planner or day of coordinator – so I knew having a DJ that could take charge and get my guests where they needed to be was essential, and Skylar and Mia were that and more. From a flawless ceremony and speeches to getting all the guests on the dance floor, to playing all my random favorite songs at the end of the night. They really thought of each little touch, whether it’s fun yard games, making sure you have a moment after the ceremony, bringing you a drink while you sign your marriage license, having a backup bubble gun, my wedding would not have been the same without GVE. THANK YOU SYLER AND MIA!!!

  • Serves Hotchkiss, CO

I'm Jonathan Williams, aka DJ Beardly—a lifelong music lover whose journey began at age 10 in my church. I honed my skills as an audio engineer at Indigital Recording Studios, working with brands like Facebook and eBay and artists like Lukas Nelson, TOTO, and Dylan Scott. I launched my own company in 2017, rebranding as DJ Beardly in 2020. Since then, I’ve DJ’d over 60 weddings, corporate events, and even performed at Monster Energy’s Country Jam in 2023. I bring passion, precision, and a deep music library to every event.

DJ Beardly is AMAZING! My now husband and I were trying to plan a destination wedding to Utah, and finding venders was very overwhelming. Once we found Jonathan, we were able to check DJ off our list right away. He was so helpful and answered our emails quickly. During our wedding night, I heard all the songs I planned on hearing and the mix was perfect. Once the dance floor was warmed up, it was busy all night! Jonathan checked in with us throughout the night made sure we were having a great time. Literally a night we’ll never forget!

First of all, the booking process with AZBESTDJ Team was a breeze . We booked directly with DJ Daniel, the owner and team leader of AZBESTDJ Team. About a month before our wedding, he let us know he would personally be our DJ on our big day which made us even more excited. A few weeks before the wedding, Daniel took the time to go over our music ideas, from the ceremony to the dance floor. On our wedding day, he timed our processional music perfectly and gave a heartfelt introduction before my dad's toast that meant a lot to our family. If you want a DJ who truly listens, cares about the details, and puts your music first, we highly recommend AZBESTDJ Team.

DJ Bertie plays everywhere from Colorado’s legendary ski resorts to mountain weddings and clubs. As a full-time DJ, music isn’t just something he does on weekends — it’s his career, passion, and the heartbeat of every celebration. The dance floor will be packed with seamless transitions, and every song will flow together from the “I do” to the last dance of the night. Whether you envision a nightclub vibe, a classic wedding theme, keeping all ages involved, or something unique, we will make it happen.

DJ Birdie was hands down one of the best vendors we hired for our wedding. Music was one of the most important parts of the day for us, so finding the right DJ mattered—and he exceeded every expectation. From our first conversation, he was responsive, easy to work with, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the planning process. We had a few unique requests for our ceremony music, including some tricky timing and transitions, and he absolutely nailed every single one. Everything happened exactly when it was supposed to, which made the ceremony feel effortless. When it came to the reception, we decided to trust him and told him to play whatever he thought would keep people on the dance floor. Looking back, that was one of the best decisions we made. He has an incredible feel for the room and somehow always knew exactly what song to play next. Looking around and seeing our friends from every stage of life, along with our parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents all out on the dance floor together was one of our favorite parts of the night. The dance floor stayed packed all night, and multiple guests have told us it was one of the most fun weddings they’ve ever been to. Beyond being an incredible DJ, he’s simply a great person. He’s kind, professional, calm, and someone you can completely trust. On your wedding day there are so many things to think about, but the music was never one of them because we knew DJ Birdie had it covered. We would hire DJ Birdie again in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for someone who will make your wedding feel like one big celebration from start to finish, book DJ Birdie. You won’t regret it. 11/10 recommend!

Giles was an amazing DJ for our wedding this past June! We had so much fun and we were able to get everyone out on the dance floor. I really wanted a dance party to celebrate, and Giles definitely delivered! We were planning a DIY wedding, and his communication and professionalism was greatly appreciated while things were a little chaotic elsewhere. We gave him a general idea of the type of music we wanted but he allowed us to be pretty hands off on specifics. We previewed a couple of playlists for both cocktail hour/dinner and then the dance party that we ran with. I really trusted Giles with curating the perfect vibe, and we are so glad we went with him! My engaged friend had so much fun at our wedding, she hired him for her wedding next summer.

Briana and I (we are husband and wife by the way!) started Trading Post Productions in 2012 when we moved to Denver, CO. What originally started as live music exclusively has now blossomed into full production for weddings and events: live music, DJ/MC services, lighting, video, etc. We've had an incredible time growing, creating, and meeting many, many wonderful folks along the way!

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could give John and Trading Post Productions 10 stars, I would. I don't normally go on and on about how great people are, but this group absolutely deserves it. For our wedding, we booked DJ for the ceremony, live music for cocktail hour, and DJ for the reception. First, the live music trio (which we had a guitar, violin, and cello) absolutely nailed it! We chose several songs from their repertoire, but also requested a couple others that were personal to the bride and I, and they not only were accommodating, but they knocked it out of the park during their performance! Second, I could share all the little details about how John was prepared for every moment, but here's the big idea: he is experienced, he will do whatever it takes to get the job done, he is easy to work with, he knows how to read a room, and he is SO talented. So many guests (and even venue staff!) commented on how amazing our DJ was! And there were several times throughout the evening where every single guest was out on the dance floor! Even more than a DJ, John is kind and outgoing, and was so excited to help us celebrate our big day. One little detail I would like to share was during the bride and I's last dance before we departed. John put on the song we requested and then left the room, giving us total privacy in that moment. Though this seems like a little thing, it allowed the bride and I to focus entirely on each other without feeling like anybody was watching us. It is a moment that will no doubt stick with me for the rest of my life. I genuinely don't think a more well-rounded DJ exists. If you're on the fence about whether or not this group is worth it, allow me to be your sign that having John and Trading Post Productions at your wedding is the best choice you could make. Thank you again John!!

Rocky Mountain Weddings By DJ Carbon 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Hotchkiss, CO

'Rocky Mountain Weddings' is a small company. The company is owned and run by professional DJs. Each member on the roster is a professional musician outside of weddings. Small enough for a personalized experience for every couple. Big enough for backup DJs and peace of mind. It is our pleasure to come party with you and we are endlessly grateful to fill our role!

I truly don't think I can say enough about DJ Carbon! He was the most amazing DJ for our wedding at the Denver Botanic Gardens, and all of our friends and family have been saying so since we got married. Music is a huge part of the life my husband and I share, as I'm sure is the same for many engaged and married couples, so we really wanted to have a DJ that understood that. Well, DJ Carbon not only understood it, but he took great care to personalize the music for our wedding. One major thing that I think sets DJ Carbon apart from other vendors is his flexibility and adaptability. From our first conversation, he was so accommodating and easygoing, which made us feel at ease right away. When our actual wedding day came, he did a great job of going with the flow and adapting to any timeline hiccups/changes. And when it came to the music, he delivered! Between my husband and I and DJ Carbon, we all shared a love of Mac Miller, jazz, and oldies, which he incorporated beautifully into our wedding day. Not only that, but when the dancing portion of the evening began, he picked up on the vibes right away and played the tunes accordingly - so much so that even our catering staff was dancing! At the end of it all, I felt like DJ Carbon is so much more than a vendor. He's family. He took so much time, care, and effort to make our wedding day special and we will never forget it! And aside from that, he's organized, responsive, and so open to anything and everything you might want music-wise for your wedding day! I cannot recommend him enough!

Awarded Best of Zola
Not sure where to begin writing this review. There are truly no words big enough to describe how special Cello Joe was as our wedding DJ. He wasn’t just a part of our wedding day, he made our wedding day. From the very first moment to the very last song, he gave us something so magical, so unforgettable, that it still makes us emotional to think about. He was literally the heartbeat of our day. He played live cello pre ceremony for all the guests to enjoy that was truly so beautiful. But the live cello as I walked down the aisle is a memory etched into our hearts forever. It was more than music. It felt like the soundtrack to our love story, and it was the most beautiful beginning to the rest of our lives. Then, during cocktail hour, he transformed the atmosphere with looping, beatboxing, and cello in a way that left every single guest completely captivated. People couldn’t stop talking about it, and even now, they’re still telling us it was the most unique and breathtaking performance they’ve ever experienced at a wedding from start to finish. And then there was the saxophonist he brought in during the dance party. pure magic. Together, they created an energy that was electric, soulful, and overflowing with joy. They didn’t just entertain, they touched every heart in the room. Not only was he the most talented cello musician, he absolutely crushed the dance party and played non stop for 3:30 hours. Not one bad song or bad mix. It was absolutely incredible. But what truly sets him apart is how much heart he pours into what he does. Without us even knowing, he recorded our entire ceremony, our cocktail hour, our dance floor, and gifted us not just music, but memories. He allowed us to relive the most important day of our lives again and again. That level of thoughtfulness is beyond anything we could have imagined. Our wedding was perfect because of him. He exceeded every expectation and gave us more than we ever dreamed possible. He is, without question, the most talented, kind, and extraordinary musician and DJ we have ever met. If we could give him more than 5 stars, we would. To us, he isn’t just the best wedding DJ in the world, he’s someone we will forever be grateful for, someone who gave us the gift of a wedding day that truly felt like a dream. Cello Joe, thank you for all the moments you created throughout our weekend. You truly are one of the most talented people we’ve ever met and I will be recommending you to everybody I know!!

What started as a husband-and-wife team has quickly become a mission to save as many weddings and events from the same old clichés. We get it because we’ve been there. Our passion to create unforgettable events stems from issues at our own wedding. Let’s just say it had a few ‘learning moments’ that we wouldn’t wish upon anyone! That experience didn’t just give us a story, it ignited a passion. We knew there had to be a better way to create truly exceptional, seamless, and outrageously fun celebrations, so Exclusive Events was born! Xoxo, Justin & Lesley Kada

Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot thank Justin and Lesley enough for how special they made our entire wedding. The first thing that impressed us was Justin’s app that we could easily load music into from Apple Music or Spotify and how organized it was for what songs we wanted and when they should be played (e.g. open dancing, cocktail hour, father daughter dance, dinner music, etc). Justin handled all of the audio for our wedding ceremony and has an amazing wireless, battery-operated set-up so there is no need to rely on a generator, which was great since we were outdoors on top of a mountain! He had a mic on the lapel of the groom and our officiant so that I, as the bride, did not have to worry about wearing one and between the two mics all of the ceremony audio (speech, vows, etc) was picked up flawlessly. At the reception, Justin had an awesome set up that looked super clean and modern but also had fun lighting to get the party going. He was an excellent MC for all of our big announcements and could perfectly read the crowd to keep the dance energy up. His wife, Lesley, was also wonderful as the photo booth attendant. I knew we would get copies of all the photos taken, but coming home with all the photos arranged in a guestbook signed by our guests was a nice touch! Highly recommend, they are a dream team.

I started DJing over a 15 years ago. In 2008 I started running my own event company, from weddings and private parties to corporate events. After all the planning was done, I became passionate about matching my clients vibe and intensity and sharing it with the rest of their guests. The DJ at every wedding is responsible for setting the tone through the music and lighting, emceeing, and coordinating the events that take place throughout the night. I’ve seen many weddings fall flat because of DJs who didn’t know how to entertain a crowd or would leave major gaps of silence in between songs, losing any build up they may have acquired.

DJ Bernardo was an awesome addition to the team of people we had for our wedding day! He was able to step in last minute and he really listened to how we wanted our wedding music to sound and feel. We wanted a gothic/punk rock wedding and Bernardo was so accommodating with our song requests and was super fun to work with while creating the playlists. I truly couldn’t be happier with his work and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ at their next wedding/event! Thanks again Bernardo!!

Matt was extremely helpful with every aspect of the evening. He was such a good MC/DJ. We had rented a neon sign and backdrop from our venue and he spent an hour adjusting his photo booth camera to make sure it would pick up the sign. This photo isn't from his camera, it's form the photographer's, but I wanted to show the backdrop! We also extended him 30 minutes when we decided the party wasn't over yet and he whole heartedly agreed. I would definitely pick him again if I had another event in Estes Park!

They took the time to understand the vibe we were going for and tailored their performance accordingly. Their saxophone skills were truly impressive, and they had a knack for reading the room and playing music that matched the mood.

We had Reed DJ our wedding and he was fantastic! Finding wedding vendors can be so hard, but choosing Reed with Moon Magnet was such a great choice. He kept the vibes up and was super flexible! Things got a little behind schedule and chaotic on our end, but he adapted so well. His communication was top notch leading up to our big day and was just generally super nice and wonderful to work with. He made our reception so fun and we got to hear all our favorite songs, sing karaoke, and dance our little hearts out. Hire Reed for your wedding, you will not regret it!! Thanks again Reed! 3

Working with Digital DJ was such an easy process from start to finish. Mike understood exactly what we wanted and communicated with us every step of the way, making sure everything felt right for our big day. As the DJ, he was the life of the party and kept our guests dancing all night long. The photobooth was the perfect addition and gave us so many memories captured on film. Mike even jumped on the dancefloor with us, which showed how much he cared about making our wedding special. We couldn't have asked for better entertainment and would definitely recommend Digital DJ to any couple looking for a DJ who actually wants to celebrate with you!!
