Amazing DJ Experience
Drew with Crimson Events was truly one of the best decisions we could have made for our wedding. He made us feel comfortable and supported from our initial meeting where he really listened to what we wanted and asked good questions such as what we haven’t liked at other weddings or what level of involvement we expect a DJ to have in the wedding. After this initial attention to detail, we knew he was the DJ for us. Drew was extremely patient and kind throughout the whole planning process. He came to our final venue walk through which was awesome to meet him in person beforehand and he was super flexible with us because we were very delayed in letting him know the songs we wanted to use for the ceremony. He has a planning app which works great where you can input must plays, do not plays, etc and link the spotify music directly. We only filled this out the week of our wedding and Drew still knocked it out of the park. He made the logistics of the wedding flow very seamlessly and had all the right announcements and directions. And then most importantly, our wedding dance floor was incredible and more than exceeded our expectations. Drew played all of the songs we wanted and fed off the crowd. One of our friends told us that not a single song flopped and we agree. He kept the vibes up all night and truly made our wedding such a blast. We couldn’t be happier and would recommend him to anyone – thank you Drew!

Can't Recommend Enough!
Our initial search for a DJ was difficult and new to us, so we didn't quite know what to look for. After talking with Drew, we knew instantly that he was a great match for us. We couldn't be happier with our decision. We gave Drew an array of instructions for our ceremony, and he executed just as we had imagined it. We at first felt naggy and demanding with all our instructions, but he something that stuck with us. "I'm here to help celebrate your day. So if you want me to do everything in a particular way, I'm happy to do so." But on the opposite spectrum, we only gave Drew a handful of songs for the open dance floor just to get an idea of our music tastes. And with just that small bit of information, Drew gave us the most fun dance floor we've ever experienced. Thank you Drew for such an amazing night! We can't recommend him enough! His skills, professionalism, kindness, along with his competitive pricing is unmatched!

100/10 DJ!!
Drew absolutely killed it with our wedding!! His live mixes were on point. My husband I both felt that he listened to our preferences and style choices attentively because the music flow was incredible. The planning process was very easy and straightforward. The music was so great people started dancing during dinner. Our guests have continued to rave about Drew and express how they’ve never seen the dance floor packed for the entire reception. Best night ever

AMAZING TO WORK WITH!!!!
We had such a blast working with Crimson Events, and Drew really knocked it out of the park on our wedding day. From our first conversation through the final dance, Drew was quick to respond to every text and email, answering all our questions without hesitation. One of our favorite moments was when Drew helped orchestrate a surprise for me with my maid of honor—he opened with a Hamilton intro that had people singing and brought me full of smiles. The way he kept everything organized and built excitement throughout the night made sure we could actually dance the entire evening instead of worrying about logistics. Drew made the whole process stress-free and genuinely cared about making our day special. We couldn't recommend Crimson Events more highly!

Phenomenal DJ, highly recommend!!
Drew was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process- consultation, planning and of course on the wedding day. He provided all the proper equipment needed for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception that, of course, operated flawlessly. The sound quality was amazing. Dance floor was packed all night and the only time people left, was to get a late night snack or a drink. The app he provided for us was super helpful and kept all our music choices organized for certain parts of the day. He followed through on our requests (even last minute changes an hour before the ceremony) and read the room all night to keep the dance floor packed. My favorite part was seeing him dancing and enjoying himself while DJing during the reception. You can really tell he has a passion for this and it’s not just a job to him. We would highly recommend him!!
