Wedding
Drew was super easy to work with and very kind. He played great music the whole night and kept the dance floor alive just like we’d hoped for. He is also super flexible. He helped us with our ceremony when we had to make last minute adjustments and was easily able to pick up on the vibe of the night. My husband is military and for the final song he played a USA themed song in honor of my husband and his friends’ service. It was a perfect end to the night and everyone loved it. He also let us make last minute changes 2 nights before the wedding and executed it with perfection which we are extremely grateful for. The photobooth is also a must if you book with Drew. It’s super easy for everyone to use and a great way to get pictures with all your guests and create even more fun memories. Our guests were in it all night long if they weren’t on the dance floor. We cannot recommend Drew enough, if you need a DJ for an event book him!! 11/10.

Best DJ ever!
Drew was absolutely amazing! Without a doubt I would recommend him to anyone! His communication leading up to the wedding was amazing! He has an app to use for all notes/ questions/ music. The app was very user friendly and hooks right up to Apple Music or Spotify. The day of the wedding Drew kept everything so smooth. He would come and keep us in the loop of what was coming next, how much time we had, and if we needed a break before the next dance or speech. His transitions with the songs were 10/10. He kept the dance floor alive all night! I got compliments all night on how amazing our DJ was. He really made the wedding night amazing! Would 100% recommend and use Drew again for special events.

summer wedding
Drew was fantastic to work with, he was very prompt and professional. The app used to curate the night was easy to use and helpful with customizing the night to our vibe. Drew did fantastic with all the announcing and made sure time frames were met. Our main goal was spending time with guests and he took all the thinking out of it. He orchestrated the whole night perfectly. We love music and dancing, Crimson Events does an amazing job, we had such a blast at our wedding. TY!!

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!
