  • 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!

    I can't say enough great things about Drew from Crimson Events! From the very first interaction, his timely communications set the tone for a stress-free planning process. He was always quick to respond to our questions and made sure we felt supported every step of the way. Drew truly excels in active listening. He took the time to understand our vision for the wedding and tailored the music to fit our tastes perfectly. His planning app made it super easy to share our preferences and coordinate details, ensuring everything went smoothly on the big day. One of the highlights was definitely the photobooth! Our guests absolutely loved it; it added such a fun and interactive element to the celebration. Beyond his professional skills, Drew is just an all-around good guy. His positive attitude and genuine enthusiasm for his work made the experience even more enjoyable. He not only kept the dance floor packed but also brought a warm and friendly energy to our celebration. Book Crimson Events for your next event - you won't regret it.

    Crimson Events and their team were an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Drew, our lead musician, was comprehensive, knowledgeable and helpful every step of the planning process, answering all our questions and offering great suggestions that kept guests dancing all night. The music selections were spot on and continuously had the dance floor packed. The high quality photo booth was also a huge hit! Drew made our whole night nonstop fun with his amazing music that perfectly suited our taste. Between the interactive and upbeat song choices and the awesome photo booth, Crimson Events helped make our wedding a blast that we and our guests won't soon forget!

    We chose Crimson Events for our wedding DJ and wow, what an excellent choice that was! Cannot speak highly enough of Drew; from the planning all the way through the actual event, he was on top of every detail. It is pretty rare to find someone who is both extremely professional/organized AND has the creative skillset that Drew has. He was really able to feel the pulse of the event & keep the party going, the dance floor was packed the whole night. Excellent emcee work as well throughout the day and into the evening, even with some unexpected last-minute changes. We have been getting compliments left and right from our guests about how fantastic our DJ was... and we agree! While we were really happy with all of our vendors, Crimson Events was hands down the best-spent money of the entire wedding experience. 5 stars!!
