Adagio Djay Entertainment And Uplighting

St. Paul, MN

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.

“We were a little nervous about selecting a DJ for our wedding in part because we don’t live in the city where we were married. DJs can be so hit or miss in my experience at past events. Adagio was terrific. Shout out to Isaiah who is so calm and laid back, a real pleasure to work with. He was considerate and took our sample playlist and made it better. He really understood the tone and pacing of the wedding and the enhanced everything. The dance floor was active all night! Thank you.”

Groovytown Entertainment is a premier wedding DJ and entertainment service, offering a unique blend of music, lighting, and photo booth fun to make your special day unforgettable. We fully understand that every wedding is different, and that’s why for over six years, we’ve been providing personalized service and attention to detail, to our couples in the Twin Cities and nearby areas of Wisconsin, to suit their style and vision. From ceremony to reception, we’ll keep the dance floor packed and your guests entertained. Groovytown Entertainment will bring the groove & vibe to your wedding celebration, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

“We hired Groovytown Entertainment for our wedding in August 2023, and it was hands-down one of the best decisions we made! After searching for a DJ for about two weeks, we stumbled upon Groovytown Entertainment through Instagram, and everything fell into place. Our main focus was on the ceremony, as we wanted my cousins to play piano and guitar while guests arrived. We needed a DJ who could seamlessly accommodate this setup. At the same time, we also wanted someone who could keep the dance floor packed all night—both my family and my wife’s family love to dance! When we reached out, we connected with Biko, who immediately impressed us during a video chat. Just minutes into the call, we knew we were in good hands. Biko’s expertise with weddings was evident; he had so much energy and gave us insights about the timeline and flow of the day that we hadn’t even considered. It was clear he cared deeply about making our day perfect, and we booked him the very next day. Leading up to the wedding, we had two more meetings with Biko to finalize every detail. He was thorough, organized, and made sure everything was streamlined for our big day. On the wedding day, Biko arrived on time and had everything set up for our cousins to perform during the ceremony. The ceremony went flawlessly, and when it was time for the reception, we already knew we were in for a great time. Biko did not disappoint! We danced non-stop from the moment the music started until the venue literally couldn’t accommodate us anymore. Biko knew exactly how to get everyone on the dance floor—even the guests who normally prefer to sit and watch. Up to this day, we’re still getting compliments from family and friends about how amazing the day was, and much of that is thanks to Biko. If you’re looking for the BEST DJ for your wedding, we highly recommend Groovytown Entertainment and DJ Biko. We’d choose him over and over again without hesitation!”

Our comprehensive online planning process lets our clients have complete control to guarantee a unique and memorable wedding.

“We hired Midwest Sound DJ Entertainment for our wedding and DJ Akeem handled the music throughout the day. He was quick to respond during the final touch base and stayed organized with our ceremony playlist and transitions. The dance floor was lively, and he took requests from guests as the night went on. However, we noticed that the guest requests took over and we ended up not hearing a lot of the songs we spent time selecting for the reception. Akeem's rates were fair compared to other DJs in the area, and he showed confidence in his work. Overall, he did the job well, though we would have appreciated more balance between our curated list and guest requests. They did not execute our uplighting as planned, which was big let down.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We had The Riverside Hitmen at our August, 22nd 2019 wedding. They were unbelievable. This was my big splurge, and it was money well spent. Considering we had a piano and cello at the ceremony, a jazz trio during cocktail hour, and a full band with horn section play for four hours at the reception, I feel the price was very reasonable. Kyle was super accommodating. My bride is from Nigeria, and the morning of the big day, she sent Kyle a bunch of African music for the DJ to play during the band's breaks. Even with that late notice, without hesitation, Kyle found all the songs online and had them ready. Having the African music was a nice touch that was very much appreciated by my bride's family. All night long our guests asked, "Where did you find this band? They are amazing!" I booked the band without ever seeing them in person, and I am extremely happy I did. The Riverside Hitmen are incredible. If you are considering booking a band, you cannot go wrong with The Riverside Hitmen. Kyle and the rest of The Riverside Hitmen, thanks for everything. Its almost two months since our wedding, and I still light up when I think how fun our wedding was in large part because of the fantastic live music you provided. Thanks again, Precious and Andy”

He is always on time, professional and courteous. He is mindful of not playing the music too loud so as disruptive. Eric is a great guy and so easy to work with.

“Highly recommend! We found Instant request at the wedding expo in Mpls, and we are so happy we did! We will be recommending this company to everyone we know we needs a dj. We had “OG DJ Chad” (per his name tag - lol) he was honestly the best person we could have asked for. He was engaging, able to read the room, recommended a lot of songs for our needs, and was just overall really good. My wife and I were really laid back about what we wanted and he was willing to work with us on everything! When we met with him on what we wanted, and everything after all was said and done and talked about, he wanted to remind us that no matter what happens, the wedding will still go on and we are still going to be married, and to remember to have fun. We truly loved working with instant request and Chad most of all. Thank you so much!”

“Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)”

“We booked through Steve upfront and he was so terrific to work with on initial arrangements. Our DJ, Drew, was absolutely fantastic! He handled both our ceremony and reception music, and everything was seamless from start to finish. The ceremony music was perfect, the timing was exactly right, and he helped create the exact feeling we wanted for the day. He used my Spotify playlists as inspiration for our pre-ceremony and cocktail hour music, so those moments felt completely like us and set the perfect vibe from the beginning. For the reception, he did an amazing job reading the room, keeping the energy going, and making sure everything flowed without us ever having to worry about what was happening next. One of the things we appreciated most was how much he cared about making the day personal. He worked behind the scenes with our officiant and friends on a few surprises, and those little moments ended up meaning so much to us. We wanted our wedding to feel relaxed, personal, and like a true celebration with our favorite people, and Drew played such a big part in creating that atmosphere.

“We had not one, but TWO other DJs cancel on us. We were getting deflated, frustrated, and losing money on DJs that would take our deposits and run. We even tried a "popular" service to find, it was a horrible match. The other, took outlr deposit and never spoke to us again. So for the 3rd try, (sadly shoulda went with them first) we called back these guys. We did check them out at first, but we're convinced cheaper was better. Nope. We learnt a lesson, a hard lesson. DJ Sound and Luke took us in battered, beaten, feeling defeated, and turned it all around. The planning with then made us feel at ease, and comfortable, and safe. They got our ides onto the forms, and the DJ was outstanding. It's like he knew our families and had the perfect songs picked and played. I'm not sure how they do it....but every time I reied to get off the dance floor, I had to turn around and gat back on because another awesome song was starting to play. Because I was on the dance floor all night with my friends, I missed some family connections, but I don't care, I'll see them at the holidays......it was MY night! DJ Sound taught me a few things. Patients, that great isn't cheap, and cheap isn't great, and that actually, they they were able to show my and my fiance love when we were beat down, hopeless, and discouraged. No jusgement from them, not even any talk about the other guys, they just hit the ground running. This company and all their employees are a blessing and we couldn't be more thank full.

“Kyara was absolutely FABULOUS! She was so easy to communicate with, and my guests loved the music selection during dinner (a few even sang along occasionally). She learned 5 songs for our ceremony (all video game songs), and she also helped me surprise my bride by playing "All I Ask of You" from The Phantom of the Opera while I sang. She met with me in person to rehearse, and it was so natural singing with her. We obviously were not able to practice in the space beforehand, but it was PERFECT when the moment came to surprise my bride. The fact that she had a speaker setup was a huge bonus, and the baby grand shell added an extra layer of elegance to the setup that I loved. I cannot recommend Kyara enough- absolutely incredible, beyond talented, and truly made my vision for the day come to life. Music is a huge part of my life, and I am so glad that we chose Kyara to help bring that love to our guests.”

Our passion is to bring people together through music and dancing. We'd love to hear your story & vision, and give you the ultimate entertainment experience.

“I was pretty nervous about hiring a DJ for our wedding. The DJ is really the life of the party at the big event, so I wanted someone who could read the crowd, play the right songs at the right moments, and roll with whatever the night called for. Keny absolutely crushed it. He read the room perfectly, got everyone involved, and played music that worked for every part of the crowd. What stood out most was the flexibility. Keny and the whole Harmony DJ team were awesome to work with. They brought fantastic lighting, and they did an amazing job at the ceremony itself. The background music was kept at the perfect level too. I've been to a few weddings where that was not the case, and Harmony DJ got it exactly right. We had so many guests asking where we found our DJ. They catered beautifully to the entire crowd all night long, and by the end they were dialed right in to the bridal party, since we were the last ones standing. Absolutely awesome experience from start to finish. Highly recommend.”

Julio’s love for music started at a young age; back when he carried his favorite CDs everywhere he went. His journey into DJing began with his father-in-law and quickly grew into a passion for bringing together the things he loves most: music, people, and entertaining. As a DJ, Julio loves creating unforgettable experiences, keeping the energy high, and making sure every couple has a celebration they’ll remember for years to come. When he’s not behind the turntables, you’ll find Julio spending quality time with his wife and two children or cheering on the Minnesota Vikings. SKOL!

“Elite Sound was the highlight of our reception. From our first conversation, the team was responsive and genuinely excited to help us plan the perfect playlist for our big day. They nailed every song we requested and had a real gift for reading the room and keeping the energy high all night long.

“We had Behind the Board DJ Entertainment for our wedding and couldn't have been happier with Steve's work. From start to finish, he was responsive and genuinely excited about our day, thinking through details we hadn't even considered yet. Steve kept the dance floor full from beginning to end. My friends and family ages 4-92 all had an amazing time. When we realized we'd forgotten to get a back track put together just days before the wedding, he got back to us that same day to make sure it was ready. His energy and skill made our reception feel alive, and every guest left talking about how fun the night was. We'd book Steve again in a heartbeat.”

They really understood what we wanted and showed genuine care about making our day special. On the wedding day itself, they went above and beyond—the music selection was spot-on, the transitions were seamless, and they kept our guests engaged the whole night. Their attention to detail made all the difference, and honestly, they felt less like vendors and more like friends celebrating with us.

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! :)”

“GenerationNOW were great to work with in planning for our wedding. We knew we wanted the best DJ we could find to ensure our wedding was a party all night long! DJ Mad Mardigan delivered just that! The dance floor was packed the entire night, as he played hit after hit. Guests repeatedly commented that it was the best wedding party they had been to! And many commented that their feet were sore the next day...the sign of a great night of dancing! And do yourself a favor - get the cold sparklers! They added an extra special touch of cool to the night!”

“Cole absolutely delighted and exceeded our wildest expectations at our wedding. He embraced the costume theme of our reception, performed significantly more music than we had expected (in a good way), and was the absolute heart and soul of our party. He improvised and adapted to every unique situation on the night with a musical and social sense of awareness that we continue to be grateful for. He even graciously agreed to play alongside Andrea's 94 year old grandmother on her accordion. Grandma is still beaming from this experience, and trust me, she's a hard woman to please. Seriously. I don't think we can ever repay him for the joy and energy he brought to our night. I couldn't get to the bar for a drink without answering the question: "Where did you FIND this guy?!" half a dozen times.”

From the first inquiry, Jason responded almost immediately and was very thorough and informative in his communication. We set up a phone call about a week later and we just knew it was going to be the right fit! The show was amazing and the entertainers really wowed the crowd.

Krista’s enthusiasm and commitment to professionalism—along with providing the best possible experience for our guests—meant that we had clear, collaborative, and enjoyable planning conversations. She even went above and beyond to help us build out the flow of our ceremony. Sonorous Strings also offers the ability to request new songs, which they then compose for performance! As a result, I was able to surprise my partner with a song as he walked down the aisle. Krista made that process so fun—it was a highlight from our day!

We are so grateful we had the opportunity to work with such a talented vendor!”
