Bellagala DJs + Lighting

set up his keyboard to play during cocktail hour and did an sound check with my brother, who officiated the ceremony. I would highly recommend him for any wedding! Bellagala was also profesional and well-priced. They were prompt with responses to questions and their website was easy to use.

o smoothly as our event moved between a few different spaces on the same property, and he threw an AMAZING party and kept people dancing until the end of the night when the lights went on.

e importantly, an experience wedding DJ that we have already recommended to others. We had two conversations leading up to the wedding, and these I felt were very helpful in better clarifying nuances the wedding profile form could not easily capture.

was absolutely amazing, she was so patient with my wedding party and also made the picture process very simple and easy by getting most of the single shots done before our wedding started! So that we had more time for family/couple shots. My husband and I highly recommend Tiffany Langer!

y of our photos. Rheo, our DJ, was absolutely fabulous. He paid attention to our online portal and requests, and executed everything from our ceremony music to the reception flawlessly. He made sure there were always people on the dance floor. The Bellagala online portal made everything seamless from a planning perspective, and both our videographer and DJ referenced our portal responses during planning phone calls.

g to give us a customized experience and make sure everything was perfect. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ

be and picking out songs that flowed well during our dance! Would recommend him 1,000 times over!

d and play for you the music you want. We wanted a song a non-traditional song for the brides processional, that we could not find anywhere except on Youtube. Daniel found a way to make sure we had that song for our day. He is very kind, and approachable and will ensure you and your guests have a wonderful time! Best DJ ever!

h our venue that we did not have to worry about it. He executed the ceremony perfectly with great transitions between songs. During our reception the dance floor was not empty once. He knew how to feel out the crowd and play the right songs. Lastly, he made sure to check in about song request to ensure we did want that song played. I cannot recommend this DJ enough.

g. I understand things happen, especially considering the world we live in now, but it was very stressful. Our DJ was super sweet, but clearly inexperienced. His sound system set up was so poor that no one could hear the speeches, and every announcement he made (for dances etc.) weren't able to be understood. During the ceremony, my husband and I waited very awkwardly for the recession music. We ended up just walking, which eventually prompted him to play the music (while we were already halfway back down the aisle). Bellagala has a great online portal that allows you to take note of what songs you want played and what you don't want played, etc. While he played the correct songs for the ceremony etc., there were several songs on our must-play list that he completely missed.

o help understand what was important to us for our day. Shane paid great attention to detail making sure he had all the small details ironed out in advance. Likewise, Shane was supportive in providing input and suggestions based on his expertise of events, our venue, and musical tastes. On our wedding day Shane did an excellent job making sure everything ran according to plan while also building in flexibility for any change of events. For example, we made changes to our grand march minutes before and he smoothly adjusted on the fly. Shane was also very pleasant, fun, and professional with our guests and other vendors helping us truly be present and enjoy our wedding day. We recommend working with Shane!

g job from start to finish. We didn’t have too many specifics but asked him to play music to get our guests dancing and to play any classic rock during dinner. We let him run with a lot of the song selections and that was amazing. I loved not having to spare any extra thoughts to how the music was going to be. Daniel just handled it. He also kept us on track during the reception. After dinner when we were trying to speak to guests he made sure we got our first dances in before our photographer left. Daniel was all around amazing and I’d highly recommend him for your wedding too.

nd the scenes checking in with us and making sure our night was running well. You could tell that Shane has been around the DJ game for awhile as he was on top of not only great music but also making sure our night was on schedule as far as what time speeches and dinner started. If you want a packed dance floor SHANE JOHNSON IS YOUR GUY!!! The guy knows how to throw a banger of a party and his calm, cool demeanor during the entire night put us at ease knowing he had things under control. I highly recommend Shane "the Train" Johnson as your DJ. He is classy, experienced and eager to make your wedding day special. You're the man Shane!!

other events, they would provide somebody). After having a panic attack in the parking lot of a Macy's, my wedding coordinator came through with her contacts and found someone fabulous (Ignite Lighting and Events--seriously getting so many compliments on them a month later). What I learned however in the process of going through this and fb wedding groups for Minnesota, is that Bellagala had apparently been doing this all summer and that week in particular they had overbooked 7 (yes 7) weddings, and then cancelled on the cheaper priced packages and blamed it on covid. But what if they actually did have covid, you might ask? I called 15 DJ's and my wedding coordinator had called a bunch she knew personally too who all said the same thing, they've been cancelling on the lesser expensive priced packages all summer leaving people empty handed. Christy even had the audacity to call the next day, saying again how sorry she was (ya right) and if I hadn't found anybody, they found someone. Uhh heck no, per the SIGNED CONTRACT, you should have done that in the first place and exhausted all options before even thinking about contacting me. To top it off, I had more help/suggestions from the 15 DJ's I did call, than from them, (who offered none by the way). Take it from personal experience, if you want to save yourself from a panic attack in a parking lot, leaving a lot of crying/sad voicemails asking if there's availability, and the overall emotional distress, do yourself a favor and DON'T book Bellagala.

d so there was no need to ask us questions day of! I will definitely be recommending Daniel to all my friends and family!

t-it-out songs. Only complaint was the wireless microphone during our ceremony did not work and needed an awkward battery replacement in the middle in front of everybody. This was the only thing that didn't go perfectly for our wedding so it is not the biggest deal, just saying that arriving with fresh batteries in the wireless mic should be a given.

g the night, and Shane came through with a great playlist for the evening. His timing during the ceremony was spot on as well. We had a lot of compliments about how smooth everything went from the ceremony to the reception, and we knew that had a lot to do with him. Overall I was very happy with the whole experience!

believe her name was Jocelyn. Not sure if she was new or what, but unfortunately not good. She was unprepared with what she needed for set up. Her mic was too loud and we could not understand her. She did not have the lights set and ready for the first dance. Guests were very unhappy that she kept cutting the songs half way through. Bellagalla was very unresponsive! Had a hard time getting a hold of anyone, calls not returned and also slow in getting information we needed for our venue! A good DJ/company is vital for a wedding! Zero Stars from us!

r your DJ!

as stellar and people raved how great the dance was. He kept the dance floor busy! We are so thankful for you JD, thank you for all your hard work! We appreciate you swooping in and being able to make it work in your schedule :)!

start that he wanted to make sure he understood what we wanted so that he could create the right atmosphere throughout the evening. Any time we reached out he got back with us quickly, provided suggestions, and really worked with us to create the right vibe for each part of our evening. The Van Dusen is an interesting venue because of its progressive nature, meaning that he had multiple spaces he would need to transition between for music. He did a wonderful job. We received multiple comments from guests about how great his music choices were during the reception. He also was kind enough to video our sparkler exit and also captured a few videos of our guests on the dance floor, and sent them to us within a few days of our event. I cannot recommend Patrick highly enough. He was a pleasure to work with and I would absolutely hire him again.

to what the crowd was responding to. I would highly recommend him.

the timeline throughout the entire day and night of our wedding! Shane made sure to connect with us via phone call and email walking through how the day would go - what he would facilitate. He was very helpful and this created less anxiety for us! When creating the wedding playlist it was so easy because Shane already had majority of the songs we wanted to be played on the dance floor and at our ceremony! Shane was very interactive with our guests and was prompt with song requests from our guests! Our family and friends complimented him throughout the night and even the next day! If you're thinking about going with Bellagala for wedding services, I highly recommend to go with Shane as your DJ, you will not be disappointed! We will forever recommend Shane! :) Thanks Shane for being an awesome DJ!!

t happened only after we emailed and called the company about the lack of a DJ assignment. Two days before our wedding, we rearranged our schedule to accommodate a virtual meeting with the DJ. We left that meeting feeling okay with the plan and believed the services would be adequate, largely because we put hours into the playlist, but we couldn’t have been more wrong. The DJ clearly did not pay attention (yet was repeatedly seen on his phone) and did not play the Anniversary Dance or the Dollar Dance before the agreed upon time. This meant many of the people we wanted to spend time with (elderly grandparents, aunts, uncles) had already left. We ultimately skipped the Dollar Dance, which was how we planned to spend time with our guests, because so many people had already left. At one point, the bride requested a song and the DJ’s response was that it was on the “do not play list;” she had to demand it was played. Furthermore, we like classic rock music (which should make for easy music selection) but the playlist we spent hours creating was clearly not referenced, as we did not even like the music that was played. While our guests are dancers, the dancing was intermittent at best, seemingly only after our friend/guest (who is also a DJ) repeatedly requested different music. After the wedding, we brought our concerns to the company, but we have yet to receive any sort of response. The Bellagala DJ services that we received were not individualized, we could not feel more disappointed, and this is hands down our primary (and only) wedding related regret. Truthfully, we wish we would have gone with one of our many Spotify playlists, as it would have been better and cheaper.

re the wedding to go over what we had filled out online and feel out Shane a bit more. We were very impressed and that further solidified our decision. He did an awesome job checking in with us throughout the day/night, handling song requests, playing all the amazing music we wanted him to play, and did a fantastic job filling in the gaps with song selections when needed. We would highly recommend Shane!

he dance floor! His professionalism was amazing and he worked with our MOH, BM, and officiant throughout making sure they had everything they needed for speeches and ceremony. When it came to planning the day he came in with a huge help on our call prior to the wedding. He walked through everything step by step and was very thorough when it came to understanding the vibe of our wedding and guests! When it came to the music he played an amazing selection of different genres keeping the dance floor full the entire night! He was very attentive to requests and even joined us for the final dance! I would highly recommend Karon as your DJ. He will keep it very professional but will also know how to make sure your guests are up dancing and enjoying every minute of your day!

was there early to set up for the ceremony (which was outside), he dismissed tables for us, he announced speeches and dances for us, and if the dance floor wasn't feeling the song he would fade it out and go on to the next one to keep everyone dancing. It has been two weeks since our wedding and people are still talking about how amazing our DJ was at our wedding. He was in contact with me before the wedding and went over our complete song list for the ceremony, reception, and dances. He answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease before the wedding. He was very polite and respectful. He played the songs we had requested and took requests from guest . He helped make our wedding one to remember. I would recommend JD as a wedding DJ to anyone who is getting married in the future. I am so happy I went with Bellagala and was lucky enough to have JD as our wedding DJ! He truly was a huge part in making our wedding day so special!

Not an easy feat with only 50 guests, but his tunes kept the energy levels high & everybody had a blast. 10/10 would recommend Matt to other couples looking for an upbeat fun DJ!

l ended early. He made the dance so much fun and played songs that got our crowd dancing, even on a Sunday night! He was super positive and very easy to work with! Thanks for an incredible experience, Bellagala and Daniel!

mmunicating with my husband and I to make sure that all of our questions were answered and that he was going to take care of everything related to music and equipment for sound. We could not have asked for a better DJ! I would highly recommend him for your wedding. He was not only great at communicating with us but he is also great at handling adversity on the day of our wedding. We had a lot going on through out our wedding day, some planned and some not planned. He accommodated and worked well with everyone!

to requests. Knows how to have a great fun wedding and he also was great at making sure we got our money’s worth in every way

g and Chris was prepared to read them off! He also was able to help pick a perfect conga line song the night of the wedding and was great in taking requests from our guests and keeping people out on the dance floor! The dance floor was never empty from 8pm to midnight and he even got our parents and older relatives out and dancing!! Would 100% recommend him as a wedding DJ!

th him. He was great at reading the mood of the room and creating a fun dance atmosphere.

ue to ensure us a perfect day. I highly recommend Seth to any/all family friends and strangers.

throughout the wedding was exactly what we wanted. Everything went super smoothly on the day and I couldn't be more thankful for Patrick's help. When it came to dancing, he really kept the party going! We have SO much fun! So many of my guests commented on how much they enjoyed the music and how wonderful a job they thought Patrick did. 10/10 would recommend!! Thanks, Patrick!

rgy hyping the crowd for the grand March. He had great music choices during the dance. Bellagala as a company was great to work with and easy website from payment to a form to fill out with all questions you can think of to make sure your wedding goes without an issue

ienced and knows how to get the crowd to the dance floor. He took requests but also knew just the right mixes of songs for every part of the night. He arrived early to help our musicians get set up and practice before the ceremony and even gave us a fun idea of a game to do during dinner! I would recommend DJ Karon 100%! Thanks for being a part of our incredible night!

have you as our DJ at our wedding at the the van Dusen. If someone is looking for a DJ. I you tell go with DJ Daniel P.

g songs played during the grand march and for our first dance. Daniel had great energy and played music that everybody LOVED. We highly recommend Daniel, he made our special day a ton of fun!

ance floor was bumpin’ all night long! He was amazing!

m our guests like we asked for. Our DJ kept the party going all night long, and our guests can't stop talking about how much fun they had at our wedding. If you're looking for a DJ , I would HIGHLY recommend Bellagala.

positive comments to share about him. Thanks JD for making our night a memorable one!

is JD a great DJ, he is also super kind and nice to work with. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ!

zed, so thorough, and so incredibly kind. He met with us multiple times to ensure the dance met our expectations. He arrived at the venue very early to set up. He made sure that everyone from aunts and uncles to college friends were rocking out all night long. I wish everyone could have Tim as their DJ! He stuck with us through covid wedding planning and supported us through the stress of changing our date many times.

he dance floor all night! We got comments from many of our guests that it was the best wedding dance and DJ they had ever seen. He took our vision and blended it with his ideas very well. We had a few very specific things we wanted with our reception, and he took them in stride and executed them perfectly.

ur wedding. Most importantly of all, he kept everyone dancing until the venue had to close. I absolutely recommend these people when planning an event to keep the good times rolling. I have not thanked them enough for the great time they’ve provided us.

ay end in a great dance party that kept going all the way to the end of the night! 5/5 would recommend!

mend. It was so nice not having to worry about that and the additional cost was very reasonable. He also was great at reading the room and playing music that our guests really enjoyed. I had no issues at all and I know that Chris was a huge help in making everything go smoothly.

finally did, he did not seem very confident in his abilities. The day of my wedding, our DJ played the wrong song for the prelude music and was just kinda absent throughout the day. His announcements felt forced and he did not seem like he wanted to be there at all. This could just have been the DJ that was assigned to us, but I would look elsewhere.

Y was mega super important he made certain it was executed without flaw.

array of music. He was very professional, reliable, and good-humored. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a wedding DJ.

e okay in all aspects. He was extremely early to the venue to ensure he would not run into any issues. He had fun himself and made sure the entire party. I hope to use him at future events! Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed him.

- cocktail hour, dinner and dancing. It was the best!!

ple dancing all night. We did not give him much direction other than we wanted people to dance and he did exactly what we hoped. He was professional, timely, and fun to be around. We would absolutely choose him again!!!

many of our favorite songs and the others got all in the style of music we enjoy most! He was so easy to work with and flexible with some snafus happening during this time of COVID. Highly recommend!
