    Crimson Events was fantastic to work with for our wedding! Their communication style was transparent and easy, which made the planning process seamless. They were also incredibly detail-oriented and flexible - Drew, our DJ, made some last-minute adjustments during the reception to accommodate us, and his attention to detail helped our night exceed our expectations. Crimson Events truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect. We highly recommend them to any couple looking for a professional and dedicated wedding band and DJ service.

    Drew was amazing to work with! I wanted my brother to sing at my wedding; he edited the music to suit what I needed, sent us the file so my brother could practice, and even offered to do a "rehearsal" if needed. It was lovely! For the reception, we gave him a few recommendations, and he went with it. He knew how to read the crowd and vibe off them. It was a great event, and all our guests complimented him!

  • Amazing!!

    Drew was absolutely wonderful to work with!! From the start he was friendly and attentive. Planning and meeting with him was a breeze. He asked questions about aspects of the day that we wouldn't have thought of! He took into account the vibe we wanted for the evening and executed it perfectly. We couldn't be more pleased!

  • BEST. DJ. EVER!

    Crimson Events provided an outstanding experience as our wedding DJ, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! If I had to redo my wedding day all over again, would I still choose Crimson Events as my DJ? The answer is a resounding "YES!" From the moment we began working with Drew, it was clear that we were in capable hands. His timely communication and attention to detail set a positive tone for the entire planning process, making everything feel seamless. Drew took the time to understand our musical preferences and tailored the playlist to perfectly fit our vision for the day. On the day of our wedding, many of our guests were impressed with his playlist and are now asking if they can get a copy of our playlist! Using his planning app, it was very easy to choose the songs/genres we wanted for our wedding. How cool is that? Crimson Events provided the music for our ceremony and reception. We booked the 6-hour package with an additional two hours of service to cover the timeframe of our wedding day events. I liked working with Crimson Events because he did not mind providing music for our micro wedding (45 guests). Some DJs only wanted to book larger weddings, but Crimson Events was more than willing to provide all the music for our intimate wedding. our wedding day, he kept the energy high and the dance floor packed, ensuring that everyone had a fantastic time. We have the pictures to prove it! LOL! Another fun highlight was the photo booth, which was a hit among our guests and added an interactive and fun element to the celebration. Beyond his professional skills, Drew's warm personality and enthusiasm truly elevated the atmosphere of our wedding. He engaged with our guests and effortlessly adapted to the crowd's vibe. If you're looking for a DJ who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about making your event unforgettable, look no further than Crimson Events. They were worth every penny and helped create a night we will cherish forever!
