A+ Entertains

I am so happy we booked A+ Entertains for my wedding at the castle! Patrick was so fun to work with, and played the best music to get people dancing all night. Thomas was also very helpful with tips during the planning and timeline process. We could not have asked for a better DJ and company to work with!

A+ Entertains was phenomenal! The owner Thomas was so helpful with any questions we had. Our Dj was Patrick and he was absolutely amazing to work with! He went out of his way to help us in the buffet line with our food, he played awesome music and everyone had a great time on the dance floor! Our wedding guests and ourselves absolutely loved his playlist, he did such a great job ! Would highly recommend!!

Luke killed it at our wedding!! We got SO many compliments from guests on how great the DJ was at reading the room. People were out on the dance floor the WHOLE night. We knew the DJ was the most important thing to splurge on and it was worth every penny. Luke was incredibly accommodating, as our venue wasn't traditional, he had to have two set ups.

Thomas was our rock from start to finish. He was always prompt with his responses and willing to meet whenever we needed to have a planning session. His positive attitude and helpful advice were greatly appreciated throughout the process. His digital platform for contracts, wedding day events and playlists was easy to use and helped us stay organized. I also highly encourage A+ Entertainment customers to spring for the wedding coordinator package; Carly was worth every penny on our big day!

Thomas was FANTASTIC!! He was incredibly easy to work with and was very detail oriented during our multiple planning meeting. We had numerous comments on how fun and entertaining he was throughout the night. He was professional and you know he has been in business for a while because everything was set up perfectly and worked great. Our dance floor was never empty. There is an option to add on a photo booth, which we did and our guests loved it. It was also a creative way for us to have a unique guestbook. HIGHLY RECOMMEND A+ Entertains!!!!!

Let’s just start by saying A+ Entertains is AMAZING, but Thomas himself is OUTSTANDING and an overall great guy! He called us before the wedding to get to know us, go over the timeline, details, and always kept in constant communication. We completely trusted him with song choices. He helped with the ceremony music, and he ran the reception efficiently. He kept the dance floor full and fun, read the crowd, and was so flexible! Thomas was able to combine both of our versions of our relationship over the years, and he provided our guests with what he calls our love story. That was one of our favorite moments of the night, Thomas portrayed our story perfectly. We received so many compliments from our guests on how personal he made our reception. His professionalism is amazing, sound system and quality is top notch! Overall, highly recommend A+ Entertains and Thomas!!

Will never be able to say enough good things about Thomas. He really was the best ever.

We used A+ Entertains for a photobooth for our wedding and they were absolutely wonderful! It made the wedding so much more fun and Thomas was great! We couldn't have imagined a better experience!

HUGE recommendation for Thomas Heath & his team at A+ Entertainment! My husband had worked with DJs before at weddings and knew he wanted a unique, personable individual to provide music, MC and coordinate our wedding reception. Thomas is SO incredibly talented and kept our party going all night. He took the time prior to the wedding to get to know us, what our ideal evening looked like, how we wanted our guests to feel and what personal twists we wanted to add to our day. He works through an online portal so you can personalize and do most everything online. On the day of our wedding, he was on time and brought all his own equipment. He introduced our wedding party with fun facts about each person and why they were special to us. He had us tell our own love story, which he retold to our guests before our first dance. It was such a special moment, our favorite of the entire day to be exact. That moment alone was worth hiring A+ Entertainment. Our dance floor was packed the entire night, everything went smoothly and I wish all brides the quality of reception that Thomas provided to us. Thank you so much for all the wonderful memories!

A+ Entertains does an exceptional job. I am a wedding planner and booked them for my own wedding this October. Patrick did an incredible job and we heard so many good things. The dance floor was PACKED the entire night. We had a blast. It was nothing short of a perfect experience from start to finish. We met with Thomas a few months before and knocked out everything: the no list, the top requests, the timeline, even special touches for our big day. Him and his wife have a sweet set-up and even had a custom sign to welcome us. The day of Patrick greeted us at the head table and even brought us a drink. He made sure we were good the whole night. I highly recommend Thomas and his team! Thank you!!

A+ entertainment was the perfect choice for our wedding. We chose Tom as our mc/dj and he did an amazing job working with us to create the perfect playlist for our wedding. He was always willing to chat with us to make sure we were all on the same page. You can tell he loves what he does! The dance floor was packed all night and our guests loved him! He even matched his stand and photobooth to the theme of our wedding. We are still getting so many compliments on the music. If we had to plan it all over again I would pick a+ entertainment with Tom every time!

We used A+ entertains for our September wedding. Tom was absolutely amazing. Tom's attention to detail was outstanding. He listened to what we wanted, and he added his own style flair. He put on one hell of a show for us. The dance floor was NEVER empty. We all enjoyed ourselves. Even 2 months after the wedding, our guests cannot stop raving about the entertainment. I would recommend A + entertains in a heart beat!

Tom and his team at A+ are the best of the best. From the very beginning stages the really take the time to make sure your vision of the event is perfect. During this process they were detailed, organized, and overall wonderful to communicate with. In the days leading up to the wedding there was great communication to put our minds at ease. Then the day of the wedding our expectations were exceeded. And our guests were blown away. Tom, Shannon, and Patrick did a wonderful job holding the whole evening together. They take care of everything, from helping you get your first meal, to keeping everyone engaged and dancing! Book A+ and you will not be disappointed with their excellent service.

We were happy with the service from our DJ day of, despite our day of coordinator expressing some difficulty with working with him. However, overall the communication prior to the wedding was poor, including multiple e-mails and texts going unanswered and pre-wedding meetings being redundant.

Thomas and A+ Entertainment made our wedding the best day ever! He played beautiful live music at our ceremony, kept all our guests on the dance floor, and helped our wedding flow smoothly from start to finish. I had four phone calls with Thomas before the wedding day so he could really understand what was important to us. He also made sure all of our bridal party's names were pronounced correctly (which not everyone makes an effort to do!). His planning forms made the planning process extremely easy and helped me feel confident that everything would turn out the way we wanted it. Thank you Thomas for helping us have the best day ever!

Such an amazing company!! From the day we scheduled until the day of our wedding, A+ Entertainment was top notch. My husband and I worked with Tom from over a year out from our wedding until 2 weeks prior, and he made our lives so much easier. Between the online profile and the countless video calls, I don't think we could've planned this well without Tom. I was initially upset because we had gotten very close to Tom throughout the process and wanted him as our DJ, but then we met Patrick and things just kept getting better. I can say with full certainty - out of every vendor we worked with, Patrick was by far the best (and we ADORED all of our vendors so that's saying a lot!). He helped us with our song choices, gave us so much flexibility when we kept changing our minds, and treated us like true royalty the day of. Patrick even went as far as getting my dinner and drinks for me. An absolute gentleman, and such a fun DJ. My entire wedding loved him as much as us. Thank you Patrick & A+ Entertainment!!

My now husband and I got married on August 3 of this year. We had the pleasure of working directly with Thomas for our big day. When we met him last year when we were researching djs Thomas definitely stuck out to us. He presented things that no other DJ presented. We instantly knew he would be involved with our guests and that he knew what he was doing. Leading up to our big day we had two different video chats with him both making us feeling extremely comfortable that everything was handled. When you’re planning a destination wedding and live 4 hours away that’s the main thing you want is relief knowing everything is going to be perfect. The day of the wedding Thomas was seriously perfect. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house, especially him! That just shows you how much he really cares about his clients. He did this thing called a love story and we had a ton of guests come up to us after telling us how unique and cool that was because they didn’t know our full love story. We would pick Thomas and A+ Entertainment over and over again. We didn’t have one single regret plus Thomas has two rescue pits just like us! Thank you again A+ you guys definitely did an A+ job!!!

Our wedding was this past Friday at Castle Farms in Charlevoix. Our DJ (Thomas) was a huge part of how successful our wedding was. From the beginning, he took the the time to get to know us as people, not just another bride and groom. We had a moderately untraditional plan for how things would flow, and Thomas took it all in stride, providing a seamless experience. The set up of the DJ equipment was impressive to say the least. My guests had a blast and I literally just got a text from a guest saying how she is still sore from dancing so much. He was attentive during the reception, without being in our faces the whole night. We were not from the Charlevoix area, and we were able to get recommendations for other services and vendors in the area from him that we may not have discovered on our own. We highly recommend A + Entertainment! Brandy and Chris

A+ Was a pleasure to work with. Me and my wife had them dj our wedding. Thomas was great. Always checked with us to make sure we were doing alright. Helped me with my fear of public speaking. Carried our plates to our table for us. And was a genuinely great person. He made sure we were comfortable and having a good time the whole night. He came up to us multiple times to see if we wanted to push anything from our timeline back to give us more time to mingle. Honestly did not expect that from the dj. He went above and beyond. He had a great playlist and also worked off of some songs we sent him.. He got just about everyone out of their seats to dance which I didn't expect as our guests are not really the dancing type. I highly recommend A+ and will 100% use them again if I ever need a dj again

Working with Thomas was awesome (He was our DJ/MC). He was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He really helped us throughout the planning process and when the big day was here, he was great! I would not hesitate to recommend using him. The photo booth was great too!

It was hard to pick a DJ until we called and talked to Thomas. He was so nice, helpful and full of information I knew he was the right choice after one phone call! The music was perfect and it kept our guests on the dance floor all night! Thomas really listened to the music we like and made sure to play it throughout the night. He was also extremely polite and helpful during the entire reception, I highly recommend A+ Event Entertainment!

Thomas did a great job DJing our wedding! He was very friendly and personable in every touchpoint we had, and he ensured that he knew all the details of the wedding and what the music would sound like. He also did a great job transitioning to different parts of the wedding (parent dances, cake cutting, etc.) and even had a small part where after compiling stories of how we met from each of us, he combined them and told the story at the wedding. Thomas kept the dance floor full and was a key part of our wedding being so special!

Absolutely professional! A+ Entertainment was the highlight of our wedding night! Amazing music selection, insanely popular photo booth, and the DJs rocked the house!

We vetted a few DJs before choosing A+ Event Entertainment for our February wedding at Castle Farms. Thomas Heath was very friendly and easy to talk to, up front about his pricing, and very enthusiastic about not only being a DJ but also helping us plan parts of our wedding. We had several consultation calls with Thomas prior to our wedding, during which he spent time getting to know us and provided us with planning advice. We planned our entire wedding from 750 miles away, and never had a doubt about the DJ we chose. Thomas has been fantastic every step of the way, and his wife, Shannon, was always prompt with e-mail questions and communications. The day of our wedding, Thomas and his assistant looked great; they even coordinated with our wedding colors! We opted for the “master of ceremonies” option, wherein Thomas put together a nice speech about my husband’s and my relationship history. It really was a lovely touch. Thomas paid attention to what music we wanted for our cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Not all of our guests were the “dancing type”, but Thomas was able to get folks out on the dance floor throughout the evening. I even had some guests comment about how they loved that he got on the dance floor with us! We had a wonderful experience with Thomas and Shannon at A+ Event Entertainment as our wedding DJ, and highly recommend them!

A+ Entertainment was exactly what we had hoped for when we first starting looking for a wedding DJ. The owners, Thomas and Shannon, helped guide us throughout the process; in fact, we had multiple meeting with Thomas where we got to ask questions and provide him with our vision. The day of the wedding, Thomas was incredible. The music fit our vibe perfectly, and he helped make the reception run smoothly. Many of our guests commented that the love story Thomas created for our ceremony and read to our guests was one of their favorite parts of the wedding. Overall, you can't go wrong with At+ Entertainment!

A+ Event Entertainment is more than just a "DJ". I didn't realize it at the time, I had read the reviews but after meeting with Thomas and his team, I was amazed at just how involved and dedicated to the job they were going to be. I think that is why we paid the extra to have Thomas there. It was such a relief to know that we didn't have to organize how the night was going to play out, we were able to enjoy our wedding without worrying about those little details. Thomas is a true showman and he kept our reception on schedule to utilize every minute of the night to the most potential. To have that peace of mind was worth every penny. Thomas and his team met with us multiple times before the wedding, and made sure we were all on the same page. We told them what music genres we liked and wanted to stick to, we received so many compliments on the range of music that catered to all the age groups at the reception. Not only that, but Thomas made sure to keep everyone involved and really helped keep the reception on track. We've been to multiple weddings, usually its just a guy with a laptop and an iTunes playlist. That is what we did not want. We wanted someone to run the show, to have the experience and knowledge to know what a fun, enjoyable, and tasteful reception looks like. You can tell that this is truly his passion. We can't recommend A+ Event Entertainment enough. You will not regret it. Also, Thomas played the violin for our ceremony which was such a relief to be able to have the music for our ceremony and reception covered all in one package. If you are looking for complete peace of mind, then you have to choose A+ Event Entertainment.

A+ event entertainment was great to work with! The entire team was so professional and very easy going. My husband and I were planning our wedding from out of state which overall made the process a little more challenging initially. However, Thomas and Shannon were very flexible in setting up Skype, FaceTime, and phone calls at any time of the day that met our needs. Patrick and Chris were the DJs at our wedding and they definitely delivered! The dance floor was packed the entire night. They put us at ease the minute our reception started and we couldn't have asked for a better night!

Thomas and Shannon were absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish! They took the worry out of the whole process. Thomas was the MC and DJ at our wedding (along with a fantastic assistant), and Shannon (MIFunBooth) provided photo booth services, and included an awesome backdrop and props. We have many photo strips of memories that will last us a lifetime. Their professionalism and experience were evident throughout. Thomas listened to our requests and put together a killer playlist. He cared about the subtle details and showed that he wanted to make our experience unique and matching to our theme/tone. We got SO many compliments on the music and the event overall. The “Love Story” was definitely one of highlights of the event; very well put together and a different/nice touch that you don’t see at other weddings. It was really appreciated since we didn’t have to explain it to family that we haven’t seen in years! Their website was very friendly and easy to use. They are very prompt to respond to emails and other requests, unlike some other vendors. The uplighting was awesome and complimented our colors well, and made the venue truly come alive. They also provided music for our ceremony and he made all of my custom music work flawlessly. Highly recommended!!

Amazing people! Patrick and Chris made our day so special, it would not have gone so smoothly without them. They even made sure we had drinks at our table when we arrived. By far the easiest and most trusting Vendor that we worked with. All of our guests would not leave the dance floor all night, it was the best day thanks to Patrick and Chris!

Chris was amazing!!! Everything went so smooth and he really engaged the crowd as the dancing portion of the wedding began! Highly recommend!

Chris L. was the best DJ/MC we could have ever asked for! We had so many guests come up and tell us how awesome he was. His music was perfectly timed for our special moments, supplied a killer soundtrack for the whole night, and had an amazing personality that had everyone engaged. EVERYONE headed for the dance floor for the first open dance and it was amazing. Chris truly went out fo his way for us and our wedding would not have been what it was without him.

We had a fantastic wedding day and it is largely due to Thomas and Shannon/A+ Event entertainment. They are so nice and easy to work with and are very quick to respond to any emails or questions I had. They were very professional throughout the planning process - we had multiple meetings via video chat and in person to help with planning. They use planning forms that assist with making your wedding exactly what you want it to be! My favorite part of the wedding day was hearing Thomas tell our love story and watching all of our families react - I would highly recommend A+

A+ Event Entertainment was undoubtedly the best decision we made while planning our wedding. They made the whole experience so personal and felt a genuine feeling of the love they have for this industry. I can’t imagine our day without their professionalism and support. They are so much more than the just ‘entertainment’, the entire flow of ceremony and reception was executed flawlessly. True master of ceremonies!

A + Event Entertainment went above and beyond typical DJ duties. Thomas worked with us through our whole engagement and helped us with space planning at our event, wedding details and really made it a priority to get to know us as a couple so we were reflected in our reception. Our DJ was Patrick and so he was the best! He also went above and beyond even carried my dinner plate for me as the bride. He was very calm and made sure the flow of our wedding was smooth. Awesome music and an awesome time! Would highly recommend them at your next event!

The A+ Event Entertainment team was great! We really enjoyed working with Thomas & Patrick. The team was professional, well organized, and made our wedding run extremely smoothly. We appreciated the personal touches (lighting and humor) and the fact the team went above and beyond to make our wedding day special.

I booked Tom and Shannon 16 months prior to my wedding after talking with them for 10 minutes. Tom is not only a DJ, but also acts as a wedding planner. He coordinated with all of our vendors prior to the event so everyone was on the same page. There was not a moment the dance floor was empty, even until the very last song. I had numerous compliments from other people saying they never saw a DJ so detail-oriented and involved. My favorite thing that Tom did was ask my husband and I to each write a "love story" with provided questions that he incorporated into our wedding reception, and he also gave very detailed descriptions of our bridal party so our guests could see just why these people were so important in our lives that we asked them to be in our wedding party. The website you have to plan your music / entertainment is so easy to use, and you can make changes as often as you like until a week or so before the wedding. Tom was even at our wedding venue the day before to make sure there were no technology glitches, met with our wedding planner TWICE with us throughout the planning process, and did the tour of our facility when we went for our initial visit. He always went ABOVE AND BEYOND! From day one, Tom and Shannon made sure that you were comfortable, had questions answered, and were completely satisfied with their services. Communication was never an issue, and if you had questions at any point throughout the planning period he answered them honestly and with confidence (he has lots of experience and attends seminars to further his education). They remained professional for the entire process and I am actually sad the wedding is over because I enjoyed working with Tom and Shannon so much. If you are looking for someone with an amazing personality who does more than play music, this DJ is right for you. He will be involved in your day just like a close friend would, and you will be so thankful to have him working with you to make your day even more special. I will highly recommend them to any couple that is in need of a DJ and I am very thankful Tom was on our team for our wedding. You will not regret working with Tom and Shannon - I know I don't!

Thomas and Shannon are an absolute pleasure to work with. We were in constant contact with them from the day we booked them all the way up to our wedding day. Shannon replies to emails instantaneously it seems, often responding within 5 minutes regardless of me emailing her with questions at 4am or 4pm. We had multiple video chats with them in order to make sure that they understood exactly what we wanted at the wedding and so that they'd have a chance to get to know us. Patrick was our DJ and master of ceremonies and he did a miraculous job. Despite our venue being uncomfortably hot, he managed to play such a fun arrangement of music that many of our guests stayed on the dance floor all night. He was very quick to pick up on exactly what made people get up and dance, and kept the party going.

Thom and Shannon were dedicated to making our experience a great one. They are very organized in their communication style and have a very streamline approach to gathering the information needed to make our event meet/ exceed our expectations. Luke was our Master of Ceremonies. There was never a dull moment on the dance floor! Everyone had a wonderful time! Thank you!

Tom is an amazing DJ! I’m Latina and requested Latin music for my wedding. I gave him a list of favorites and he went about and beyond. Everyone danced the night away! Also, the lighting and monogram was a nice touch. It really set the ambiance! I highly recommend A+ Event Entertainment!!!

A+ Event Entertainment did an excellent job from the planning stages right down to last call, the night of. Their dedication and experience with wedding receptions made our night much less stressful with the overall planning and logistics. They made the evening flow seamlessly into a truly enjoyable and memorable night. A+ Event Entertainment was very attentive to our needs from lighting/ equipment to song selection throughout the evening. Their online portal was easy to use and allowed us to customize our playlist to our liking. I would recommend using their services to anyone in the future. Thank you for being a part of our special day. Greg and Maribeth

Wonderful experience working with Patrick for our big day as DJ. There's a questionnaire you fill out with some must play and absolutely must not play songs and all the information for your party, plus how much involvement you want the DJ to have, etc. We skyped a couple of times with Patrick as well which was nice to get to know him a little bit before we met him on our wedding day. He did a fantastic job with the music, announcements, and keeping things on schedule. He was also sweet enough to bring me and my husband a plate of the passed appetizers while we were doing pictures so we wouldn't miss out! Fantastic experience, can't thank Patrick enough!

Wow! What a day/night we had thanks to A+! From the preplanning to the day of, they made everything fun and easy! Everyone was on the dance floor until the final song! Great selection of music that kept everyone dancing all night long, even my 91 year old grandma!

Tom and Patrick did an outstanding job for my wedding reception. Not only did they keep the guests on their feet.. they made the entire night go just perfectly. They are very professional, talented, personable and made my husband and I feel right at home. (As if we were dancing like no one was watching) We could not have asked for a better DJ, and cannot thank them enough for the most memorable night of our lives. I 100% believe they were the ones who shaped our night to the best it could have gone. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for some fantastic entertainment. You guys ROCK!

Tom was a savor to us! After things started to fall apart, Tom stepped in to help however he could! He took on way more than simply master of ceremonies/dj! He kept the dance floor full, and kept it fun! We planned our wedding from hours away and we're a little nervous, but Tom had totally exceeded our expectations!

Like from A+ Entertainment kept the party going all night long! He did exactly what we asked of him, and we were picky! He kept the energy high and everyone enjoyed dancing for hours. If a song appeared to be a dud, he immediately changed and kept the party going. He was a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony.

From the initial contact regarding services and pricing to the day of our wedding, we could not have been happier with the service A+ Event Entertainment and our master of ceremonies (Chris) provided.

I cannot say enough amazing things about A+ Entertainment. We chose them as our DJ after seeing their work at a friends wedding...once we got engaged there was NO question that we wanted them to be at our wedding. They made our planning process effortless and were always there to offer advice and answer any questions that we had. They customized our event to us and even threw in some AMAZING and emotional surprises for us the day of. Tom and his whole team were always smiling and making sure everything was running smoothly. Our instrumental ceremony music was perfect and the dance floor music was the most fun mix that got everyone dancing. A+ Entertainment helped make our wedding day perfect and magical, you can tell they all truly care about what they do. They are the best service you could pick for your wedding!! You will be in the best hands possible.

Having Tom as our master of ceremonies was a good decision! He was always right there asking if we needed anything. He worked well with last minute decisions when we told him we were one speech down, no one even knew that we were missing something. Before the wedding was also a great experience, I talked to him on two separate occasions about the wedding planning and he helped in any way possible. It helped to get comfortable and to get to know each other. He didn't do our ceremony music but he answered all my questions that I had with that process also, for example how many songs I needed. The online website he has to enter in all the information related to what songs you want played, to important people in the wedding, to every step in the process of wedding planning with the timing of everything was very easy to use. Without him I would be lost at the timeline of a wedding! He made the entire process so much easier.

Tom and Shannon were amazing!! We're so glad our caterer recommended A+ entertainment. Tom made everything so easy and he was so helpful. By the end of our video planning conferences we felt as he was a close friend we've known for years.

Luke at A+ Event Entertainment did an awesome job at our wedding reception. Luke made sure the night flowed smoothly and even got out on the dance floor to get our guests dancing. We had a lot of fun! Would definitely recommend using this DJ service!

A+ Event Entertainment is awesome!! I would highly recommend them! My guests had a blast dancing at the wedding. My husband and I had a terrific wedding day. And Tom was very professional and easy to work with.

They were nothing but awesome and did everything we asked! Everything from the ceremony music to cocktail and dinner music and reception music was just splendid! Everyone enjoyed their time and we just have nothing but great great things to say about them! Thank you so much for being a part of our day! You guys help make it as perfect as can be!

Tom did an incredible job as the DJ for our wedding... from cocktail hour to dinner to dancing! We gave him a list with 20 songs broken down into must play, play if possible, and do not play, and he was able to use that list to determine songs that fit our taste for the entire night (as well as taking requests from guests). We received numerous compliments from our guests on the music and the dance floor was full all night long! Tom was organized and prepared and kept everything running smoothly. He was friendly, energetic, and personable. We are thrilled with and thankful for our choice of a DJ and definitely recommend A+ to couples getting married in Northern Michigan!

Tom was great!! He is a jack of all trades! Loved how he incorporated Alice in Wonderland music at dinner, introduction of us and at the cake cutting!! (we had an Alice in Wonderland theme reception) We had live musicians play during cocktail hour and at dinner, he was one of them, and they were awesome!!! A+ Event Entertainment really sets the bar high for other Dj's!!

A+ did a fantastic job all night! Patrick was very attentive and made sure that my groom and I were always taken care of from the time they got there, always checking in to see if we needed anything to drink, anything cleared out of our way, etc. I barely remember the introduction of the wedding party as the entire day was a blur but I do remember everyone was on their feet and energized...was such a great moment that my ears remember even though my eyes don't! The addition of the drum set was by far the coolest factor ­ sounded like a live band was performing without having to pay a live band price. Prior to the big day Patrick was also super helpful in assisting me with the order of events, making suggestions for when to do the toasts, first dance, etc which was super helpful and made the evening flow much better than it would have had I left it the way I had originally planned. I can't recommend them enough ­ they really provided a great experience and had people out on the dance floor until the end of the show...thank you for enhancing our day!
