The quality of their work and the value they provided was truly amazing - Luke, our DJ, played the perfect music all night and was awesome beyond belief. He even had my dad out there to the music and my family LOVED Luke. He got music they requested that was impossible for us to get. It's like he was always a part of our family!

“WHEN I’M BEHIND THE BOARD, MUSIC IS MY VOICE, MY WAY TO CONNECT WITH THE CROWD. WHEN EVERYTHING CLICKS, NOTHING BEATS THE SYNERGY THAT’S ACHIEVED.” That’s Steve’s favorite thing about being a DJ; the shared experience that comes with performing at events. Steve describes himself as “hands-on.” “I thoroughly enjoy playing the director’s role when doing these events. From the first announcement over the microphone until my ‘See ya!’ to send everyone home, there’s a lot of pleasure that goes with commanding the room. While these events are serious business, there’s nothing saying that you can’t have fun with it.”

At Adagio Djay Entertainment our philosophy is to assist you in creating an atmosphere that will make all of your guests feel welcome and involved without making the DJ the focus of the reception. Although the music is an important part of setting that tone, we believe the focus should remain on the guests and the beautiful memories that are being created as they celebrate with you.

Adagio Djay Entertainment was the perfect choice for our wedding! We had DJ Dan and he was absolutely incredible - he kept our guests dancing all night long with an energetic and engaging set. Dan did a fantastic job of sticking to the playlist we had discussed, while also reading the room and adding his own professional touches to keep the dance floor packed. Our guests raved about how much fun they had, and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our special day so memorable. We highly recommend Adagio Djay Entertainment!!

Complete Weddings + Events Minneapolis MN

  • Serves Rockford, MN

With a million decisions to make for your event, it might be tempting to dial up the first search result for the event DJ in Minneapolis and hire them on the spot. The downside? Not every DJ is appropriate for every kind of event. If you’re hoping to plan a one-of-a-kind party with music catered to your theme and formality level, you’re going to want to find a special event DJ in Minneapolis with experience. Your event is special, and we think the person you select to DJ the party should be special, too!

We used Complete Weddings Events for photography and they were amazing! Ari walked me through the process every step of the way and answered my hundreds of questions every time. Deea edited our photos beautifully! We had Bryce do our engagement session and James did our wedding photos. They were both so chill and down to earth! They made us so comfortable and were so much fun, but still professional as well. They were both so great to work with and we still talk to both of them too! Complete was all-around wonderful to work with and we cannot recommend or thank them enough! :)

A Ran Music Service 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Rockford, MN

At A Ran Music Service, we solve our clients’ biggest worry: “But, will my guests dance?” We dance guests out! Even those reluctant “non-dancers” will be compelled to join the dance floor for the entire evening, never looking for their seat again, and “living it up” on that dance floor the entire night. We’re music lovers and musicians- we know a thing or two about composing a captivating and irresistible playlist that incorporates personal song selections into your unique event.

A Ran Music Service was a solid choice for our wedding entertainment. Their communication style was prompt, warm and friendly, though we did have some issues with emails not coming through consistently from their Honeybook account, so we had to regularly check their online client portal to stay updated. The quality of their work and value was good overall - they had a huge library of songs to choose from and the song edits they provided were great. However, the music they played was largely at one tempo, which caused some of our guests to get a bit tired on the dance floor after a while. On the plus side, their great sound setup made for easy transitions from our outdoor ceremony to the indoor reception. Overall, A Ran Music Service helped make our special day a success and we’d book them again!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.

Trust Groovytown Entertainment to bring the groove to your wedding celebration, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

From the moment we booked Groovytown Entertainment for our wedding, their communication was personal, efficient and respectful. They took the time to understand our musical preferences and vision for the reception, and worked closely with us to create the perfect playlist. On the day of, their energy and enthusiasm kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. The DJ was super interactive, getting the crowd pumped up and making sure no one sat down. Overall, the quality of their work was very good and they provided excellent value for the price. We couldn't have asked for a better dj to make our special day so fun and memorable.
