“I cannot say enough great things about A Better DJ and Photographer! From start to finish, they were absolutely amazing to work with. The DJ brought incredible energy, kept everyone engaged, and created a fun atmosphere while remaining professional and organized throughout the entire event. He was creative, easy to work with, and truly helped make our wedding unforgettable. The photographer was equally outstanding. Both the DJ and photographer went above and beyond to accommodate every need, request, and special detail I wanted for my wedding day. They listened to my vision and worked hard to make sure everything was exactly how I dreamed it would be. Because of their dedication, professionalism, and attention to detail, my wedding was absolutely amazing.

“DJ Inessa was absolutely wonderful! From the beginning, she was incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely invested in making our wedding feel like us. What impressed me most was how much she helped beyond simply being our DJ. She helped coordinate the flow of the reception, communicated with us throughout the process, kept track of important details, and helped make sure everything transitioned smoothly. When you’re getting married, there are a hundred tiny things happening at once, and having someone who notices those details before you even have to ask is incredibly valuable. Our wedding brought together two culturally different families, and she did such a beautiful job making everyone feel included. The music and atmosphere never felt like one side of the family was being asked to fit into the other. It felt like one celebration created specifically for us. One of our favorite moments was the flower girl dance. Our flower girls absolutely loved it! Seeing how excited and happy they were out there dancing was such a sweet part of the night, and it gave them their own special moment that they’ll remember. Their smiles said everything. Another moment that really showed the kind of person Inessa is was when she actually came out and danced in a circle with the little kids. She wasn’t standing behind the DJ booth simply watching everyone have fun. She got down there with them, joined their little circle, danced with them, and made them feel like they were an important part of the celebration. Watching the kids light up around her was incredibly sweet. That small moment said so much about how caring and kind she is. She was warm with our guests, flexible when things needed adjusting, and calm when we needed direction. Instead of feeling like we simply hired a DJ, it felt like we had another person on our team who genuinely wanted the night to go beautifully. We are so grateful for everything DJ Inessa did for us. She helped turn a complicated day with a lot of moving pieces into a happy, memorable celebration. I would absolutely recommend her to another couple. Five stars without hesitation!”

Hello, my name is Allen. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about the past, present, and future of my passion for music. My first DJ event was in 2010 when a couple of my friends wanted to have a New Year’s Eve party. The opportunity of using a friend’s professional DJ equipment came about. The rest is history – I haven’t stopped since! I am constantly learning more and more each day and having fun while doing it. I’m like a kid on Christmas morning when I purchase a new piece of DJ equipment or get butterflies when someone books an event. I love playing music! Especially playing music people like.

“We had a fantastic experience working with Allen from Good Times DJ Service. His communication throughout the planning process was friendly, easy, and clear - he made the music selection process smooth by providing us with helpful forms to share our vision. On our wedding day, Allen brought so much fun energy and kept everyone dancing with his personalized song choices tailored just for us. He handled all announcements and coordinating with the other vendors professionally. Overall, Allen's services were a great value - he helped make our wedding reception personalized and special with his musical talents. We'd highly recommend Good Times DJ Service for your important event!”
