About this vendor
Hello, my name is Dennis Chaney (DJ D) of Afford-A-DJ, based in Hamilton, OH. I consider it a privilege to play weddings for people. I started Afford-A-DJ to help people get more for their money. I'm always there early and the last to leave. My price even includes playing the ceremony if needed. One thing I don't do is charge for setup time, or tear-down time, only charging for the hours played. I do, however, charge extra for weddings over 25 miles from home.
With 2 portable pa units, one with a wireless microphone, I can do ceremonies even where there is no electricity. I will put together an itinerary, a playlist, captains call, announcements, and MC for the night. I have a great sound system, some over-the-top lights, with wireless mics for the announcements. I’ve been playing music for most of my life, and I like giving people a DJ that does everything at a reasonable rate.

ryone in the audience said they could hear our reverend so well, and I attribute that to the DJs stellar work at the ceremony set up. He played songs we requested, felt the crowd and adjusted as needed, and was so friendly. He talked to guest and family members and not one person had a bad thing to say about him. His disco lights are top notch too! We loved how personable he was, and now he tailored the wedding to our wants and needs. Highly highly highly recommend him!

different DJs, some where good, some where not, Dennis was by far the best I’ve seen. Dennis worked with our coordinator and vendors and made sure every announcement was timed perfectly, his audio sounded great, very clear easy to understand, the right amount of volume. He had every song we requested, even some obscure ones. His prices are very affordable, and I feel like I got a lot more for the money than I would have from most DJs.

oving for the entirety of our reception and even went longer into the night.

We couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special day!
