We can't say enough good things about our wedding DJ, Casey! He absolutely exceeded our expectations in every way. From the very beginning, he was incredibly helpful and responsive, making sure he understood exactly what we wanted for our big day.
The music selection was perfect - he played all of our requests and kept the dance floor packed all night long with a great mix of genres and tempos. The sound quality was excellent, and he did a fantastic job of keeping the energy high and the party going.
Beyond the music, he was also an amazing emcee. He was on time, well-dressed, and incredibly professional. He kept the night flowing smoothly and made sure everyone felt included and entertained. He was so friendly and engaging, and our guests loved him!
We also have to give a shout-out to the amazing photo booth! The attendant was fantastic, and everyone had a blast taking photos and creating memories. It was the perfect addition to our reception.
If you're looking for a DJ who will go above and beyond to make your wedding unforgettable, look no further. We wholeheartedly recommend him!

We originally found Black Tie on the Knot while looking through suggested DJs. We really loved the fact that Mike offered other enhancements with his packages. We knew we wanted to have a Photo Booth, so having a bundle option with Music and Photo Booth was exactly what we were looking for. We also liked that the Photo Booth came with the ability to have Black Tie print the pictures for everyone in the picture as well as make a scrapbook for us to keep. Mike was very professional and timely. He kept the day moving, which was super helpful! I loved the fact his website was super easy to use as far as creating playlists and day of timeline. He played all the songs we requested from our custom made playlist through his site. He also let me design our photo strip to match all our wedding decor. BIG plus for me! If you aren’t tech savvy, there’s tons of options to choose from though. He was also flexible and accommodating. I requested to move up one of our special dances, and he made it work! Our guests also enjoyed the entertainment. We would highly recommend Mike and Black Tie to future couples looking for a DJ and photo booth.

Before you even finish reading this review, YOU BETTER BOOK IT !! We got married on October 18th and I will never stop talking about how incredible the whole day was. A lot of that can be contributed to Black Tie!! From one stressed bride to the next, you will not regret it. Mike from Black Tie was truly incredible and made the whole process so much fun and easy. From the planning stages, to the day of, I truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. They have a planning website that you can fill in at your own pace and Mike was so helpful in our phone calls. We also got our photo booth through them and the attendant was so sweet and fun!! If you want one less thing to worry about and you want people to dance all night on your wedding day, please book them now. The amount of compliments we have gotten on the DJ and photo booth are truly insane!! Just overall a perfect experience. He kept everything on schedule and made the night unbelievably fun. They're interactive and personable. Please stop me because I'll go on forever !!

Mike did such a wonderful job with my wedding! He kept the party going the whole time. He did both my reception and ceremony music. Everything ran very smoothly and communication was great. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day. Mike played so many songs that all of our guests knew. We had a variety of different ages at our wedding and he made sure to play songs that everyone could dance too! Thank you for being a part of my special day and making sure it was perfect!

We had DJ + Photo booth services from mike on our wedding day. Communication with mike was great and the online booking software was easy to use. He did keep the dance floor going all night and was a great, but the majority of our must-play songs were not played and the wrong song was played for our cake caking. He said he was taking requests from guests, which is why our must plays were not played, which is fine, but there was other songs that were played that were not on our must-play or maybe list or guest requests. The Photo Booth was a great addition and we got a scrapbook of the guest photos that we really enjoyed.

January event. Mike was absolutely wonderful prior and during the event. He took time to put together video with me prior to surprise 60th for my wife. The entire night was hopping and the guests were up on their feet from the 1st song. He was entertaining and just a joy!!

We use black tight entertainment for a wedding and I cannot say enough good things! We were so busy the days before our wedding that we never made a playlist and we were so worried about what our DJ would play, all I can say is Casey absolutely KILLED it! I had numerous people asked what DJ we used and said it was the best wedding and the most people up and dancing they have ever seen at a wedding! They kept us on track and made the night a blast! If you’re looking for a DJ book black tie!! We also did the photo booth and it was a BLAST!! They made us a book with all the photos! Communication was great as well! Prices were extremely reasonable!

We hired Black Tie Entertainment for our wedding August 26th, and Mike was so awesome!! He was fun energetic, lively and knew how to keep the party going! He stayed on track with our timeline even though there were a few things we skipped over and a few hiccups along the way! He was great at keeping the guests on their feet and pumping everyone up for our entrances! 10/10 definitely recommend!

Casey did a really great job at our wedding. Everybody kept telling us that ours was the best wedding they had ever been to & I think that has a lot to do with the vibe that Casey created. I didn't give 5 stars only because there was a small mix-up with 2 dances & I wish they would have announced the photo booth because most people didn't even know it was there. I really recommend getting the cold sparkler fountains because they were just so fun & really blew our guests away. It definitely added a special touch & looked great in photos.

After seeing such great reviews here on the knot for this DJ, we were really excited to book with Mike. You are provided with a “portal” to add in must play songs, do not play songs, names of the bridal party, schedule of the day, etc. I loved the idea of this. He did a great job with the lighting, although the color was not the color we asked for. He called us a few days before our wedding to go over our “portal” to ensure he had everything he needed on his end. During this call, he brought up a game we wanted to do during our reception. He said it was “really stupid” and we need to “actually greet our guests” and we need to rethink doing the game. (Clearly, we will greet and thank our guests, just wanted some form of entertainment as we weren’t doing a garter toss, dollar dance, etc) Next, he fought back and forth with our photographer/videographer when they wanted to use the quiet reception area to video/audio our vows to get us good quality for our wedding video. He said we couldn’t use the space because he was setting up and that’s more important. The next best place, was under the reception area in the basement, where we could hear everything upstairs. Next, he played the wrong song for the groom and his mother to walk down the aisle to (even after receiving this information on the portal and confirming it on our phone call). Next, he called the “big girl bridesmaid” out to the dance floor while a song about big girls was played and when she was too embarrassed to come out, he still continued to call her out to the floor ( how absolutely rude to my bridesmaid!!!). Lastly, I’d like to add he didn’t play many songs we had requested. We do completely understand he is a DJ and that’s his job, but I would’ve liked to hear some more songs I requested. After being told my wants are stupid and my husband walking down the aisle to the wrong song, I am so upset with how things turned out. I actually had an engaged friend ask me who my DJ was so she could avoid this DJ.

Your search for the best wedding DJ is over. I cannot say enough good things about the service we received from Black Tie Entertainment. He did a fabulous job keeping the flow of the evening going and the dance floor at our daughters wedding was packed the entire night. Black Tie also provided the photo booth, again they were so efficient, no long wait, everything was organized and the operator made a scrapbook as he printed out each picture. I have been to weddings where the DJ struggles to get the crowd going and it ruins the night- you will not have this issue with Black Tie! Thank you again for helping make this a memorable day for our family!

Mike with Black Tie was absolutely amazing! He provided our DJ services, up-lighting and Photo booth services, all of which we were extremely happy with! Their up-lighting adds a beautiful touch to the venue. Mike is the definition of professional, he knew what songs to play when to keep the party going all night, he took requests as he received them to make everyone happy, and he even called out special people in attendance to get them on the dance floor. I really can’t enough good things about him! The photo album that was put together by their staff was such a wonderful gift to have to cherish all the memories of those who attended. I didn’t catch the name of the girl who worked out photo-booth but she was amazing! So kind and professional.

Mike was SO GREAT to work with! His energy during our pre-wedding meetings was contagious and on the day of our wedding he carried that energy and some. We spent so much time on the dance floor as the bride and groom because he constantly played music that was hard to walk away from. BTE has a website that helps you fill in all of the music/ timeline-related details which was incredibly helpful and helped us make sure we had thought of everything we needed to. Even during our phone calls before the wedding he was able to give us ideas for certain parts of the ceremony/ reception. Also, our venue has the potential to be tricky with sound because it was a "echo heavy" venue but when the ceremony started and throughout the reception you would have had no idea. He is amazing at what he does and highly recommend this company to any couple!

These guys are the best!!! The photobooth was such a great addition to our wedding! They had great props, and they printed photo strips for everyone. The best part was that they'll print an extra copy of each strip for a photobook that people can sign. It's included in the cost, so you don't pay any extra for it. It's also hilarious to look through because people take the best pictures. If you also have kids at your wedding, the kids love it just as much as the tipsy adults will! We fully recommend it!

The best! This is a family run business and it is clearly their passion. They are so professional, happy to work with specific requests (we had a NYE wedding so we did some extra things to celebrate) and their equipment and set-up is amazing. We loved so much about working with them! What we loved the best is that you know exactly who will be working your event, it is either the father Mike or the son Casey. We worked with both of them and couldn't be happier. Casey actually worked our event - and he WORKED. He kept us on track, and kept the evening moving. He adjusted to our crowd - big dancers so he moved things along to get the dance music going...they were on the dance floor before the real dance music even started. Casey noticed and adjusted to get people out and dancing as quickly as possible. They are a true entertainment company and they really made our evening. It took so much stress off of us - we could not be happier with them or more thankful that they managed our wedding with patience and professionalism. Thank you Mike and Casey! We are forever grateful!

Mike was AMAZING! Everyone had a blast at the reception. The USB with all individual photo booth photos is incredible, we plan on picking a couple to send in each thank you card to surprise our guests! The lighting he set up was awesome, from a distance it looked like a concert was going on at the venue. Would Highly recommend!

Casey, our DJ was the glue that kept our night running EXACTLY how we imagined it. He was on the exact same page as we were the entire time and really made the night something to remember. We had an outdoor ceremony and an indoor reception and everything was executed perfectly. We loved the service we got and how accommodating Black Tie Entertainment was to make sure our wedding went exactly how we imagined!!

Casey did a great job at our wedding and wedding reception! Black Tie Entertainment provided a speaker system and microphones for our outdoor wedding and everything ran extremely smooth! From the instrumental music we had picked to our family member singing as I walked down the isle. Everything was timed perfectly. We also received tons of compliments on the music throughout the reception! Great job Casey and thanks for taking care of us!

First off...the DJ was okay. he kept the crowd decently hyped.i was disappointed only to hear one country song after the list we gave him had lots on there.Secondly.he did "this groom requested this special song" and had the groom in a circle and had him dance to i'm too sexy for my shirt-anyone who knew how the groom is was like what?!! the groom wasn't happy with that.Third,i'm not a bridezilla but he messed one of my bridesmaids names up and i know we changed it but really?!I also didn't hear but a few of the songs we asked to be played...he gave my brother a hard time about a song that i had on the must play list...and waited til like the last few songs to play it.The my anaconda song was played and i was furious.We gave him a set list to play and i heard two songs off that whole list. I get it- he is a DJ and we aren't but for that kind of money-I was shocked at how much i felt like he was doing wrong.I will say the lighting was cool.I had a few people get a headache from all the lights but it was okay-All in all-I wouldn't do it again! that's for sure.

Mike was great to work with! His online portal makes it easy to fill everything in and ensures that no detail gets left out. We used the playlists in the portal to put the songs we definitely wanted played, and some we didn't, then we gave him free reign on the rest! He was very engaged during the wedding and definitely kept the party going. Oh and...do the shoe game!!!! We were hesitant about it at first and we decided to do it last minute (like dinner was about to be served at our reception and we told him we were going to do it). We were served our dinner first, so we did the shoe game while everyone else was finishing eating. It provided entertainment and got all the guests involved, they even started shouting out answers! It went by super fast and it was a great personalized addition to our reception! We also got the Photo Booth through Mike and it was a hit! Everyone loved going in there with different props and different groups of people. It served as an amazing and memorable guest book for us for years to come!

Black Tie Entertainment did a fantastic job with our wedding! From the very beginning of the planning process, Mike was so easy to work with , and extremely quick to respond to emails. The online timeline and planning form made me feel confident that everything would be perfect the day of my wedding - and it was! Mike was a great MC and the guests loved him. He was very open to taking requests, and got everyone on the dance floor. I also HIGHLY RECOMMEND getting a package that includes their photo booth which was the hit of the night!

BlackTie are number one in my book. They kept my daughters reception moving. They played just what the bride and groom asked for. The photo booth was great and up lighting made the night complete. I will hire them again should my sons get married.

Mike was a great DJ for our wedding! He was super communicative and easy to get hold of when I needed to. The interactive planning on his website makes it easy to get all the information to him. He kept the party going all night, was good about checking in with me, my parents, and my coordinator, and was great about not playing anything we had requested he not play. I was nervous that the up-lighting would look tacky in our beautiful venue, but it is really gorgeous and added to the space beautifully. Highly recommend!

Planning a wedding from out of town is no small feat. I live a few hours away from my hometown where my husband and I got married. I found Black Tie Entertainment through Google, and booked them without meeting them in person. Mike, the owner was in contact with me about the contract and an easy online form that you fill out with details.
I found out a few weeks before the wedding that our DJ was going to be Casey. Being that the DJ is an important part of the wedding reception, I scheduled a meeting to go over some final details and meet him in person. Casey met us in between Pittsburgh and Cleveland and was extremely helpful in planning details. He had suggestions of songs that worked well in the past and he convinced us to do the "shoe game" and have uplighting (which both were great).
Day of the wedding, Casey came in and set up and really took the lead as a DJ- communicating with the reception venue coordinator and the bridal party. The music he played was very fitting to the crowd and almost everyone stayed until the last song. One of my favorite moments was when he announced that he caught a song from the Maid of Honor's speech, and played it for me, the bride. Little details like that go a long way.
The guests were happy and my husband and I were thrilled with how everything flowed with no mishaps. I highly recommend Black Tie Entertainment.

We enjoyed working with Mike and we think he did a good job with our wedding. However, he played a lot of "line dancing" choreographed songs, and it took him a long time with repeated requests from our bridal party to start playing the songs we requested. He is a good DJ and keeps the party going, we just wish a few things had been done differently.

I did not know what to expect when booking black tie entertainment. I had know prior knowledge about any DJ services. When I spoke with mike on the phone he was very professional. He has a website where you can input all you information and select must play songs. It was very easy to use convenient. A couple days prior to the wedding we spoke again on the phone to confirm all the details and go over any last minute details. Once arriving at reception he played current songs while throwing it back every once in a while to please all age groups. He helped set the tone for reception and everyone danced the whole time!!!!

Black Tie Entertainment was amazing - their interactive website (http://www.blacktieentertainment.us/ - for some reason the website wouldn't let me add this to the vendor) allowed us to plan the reception in advance, and Mike took it from there. He coordinated with the caterer and made our day very easy. One thing I really loved is that he seemed to get the party going even during dinner. He interacted with guests and played songs and got people to sing along. People were very ready to dance by the time it was dancing time. Once it started - it never stopped. People were on the floor all night, even people who swore they'd never dance. We even asked Mike to stay late because people were having so much fun dancing. We got the biggest package, which included a laser light show, which was a lot of fun and made it really feel like a big party. Multiple people told me this was the best time they'd ever had at a wedding, and honestly, I have to give a lot of that credit to Mike and Black Tie Entertainment.
