We truly had the best time working with Sean Carlson for our wedding! He was extremely personable and genuinely did whatever he could to make our wedding the best that it could be including voiceovers for our first dance and processional, playing all of our must-play songs at the perfect times during the celebration, and offering many helpful tips like timeline creation, timing suggestions, and tips about other vendors. I cannot recommend him enough! Our day went so smoothly and Sean was a huge part of making that happen. If you have an event coming up and need a DJ or MC, hire Sean!!
Carlson Entertainment reached out right away after we requested more information for our wedding. Sean and Missy were super helpful and made planning an ease for us when it came to playlists and dancing timelines. Their experience made us feel comfortable and we knew we wouldn't have to worry during our big day! Their website allowed us to upload our Spotify playlists and Missy made sure she had a good feel of what we liked to ensure the dance floor was filled the entire night! Had so many compliments from my family and even my high school cousins want them to DJ their dances! We give our highest recommendation to Carlson Entertainment who made our wedding day a HUGE success!!!!
Sean and Missy were both so much fun to work with! They're very professional and helped us personalize our wedding day, making it truly an amazing day. Their meetings were informative and collaborative, and during our wedding day Missy kept everything running smoothly, always checking with us before moving into a new part of the night. Would highly recommend their services!!
Sean was so great to work with and made planning our big day so much easier! He was always very helpful, great at communicating and overall such a great guy. Our guests loved the music and Sean kept the dance floor full all night. His equipment was very professional and looked great in our reception space. We highly highly recommend Carlson Entertainment for your wedding!
Sean was amazing through the entire process leading up to and through our wedding day. He helped us, guided us and offered advice where we needed help. He made the entire day super seamless. Past the songs we specifically requested the songs he picked were great and kept the dance floor hopping until the end of the night. Can’t recommend him enough. He’s very professional and working with him and his company was a pleasure.
Sean did an absolutely amazing job for our wedding, he was so focused on making the whole day an experience for us and our guests beyond just DJing. He accommodated all of our desires and even made last minute changes per our request during the ceremony and reception. He made made us feel so comfortable and excited during the whole process. I cannot recommend him enough!!
If you are on the hunt for a DJ, look no further. Sean Carlson was worth every penny. I had never heard of a DJ/MC being so involved in not only the wedding, but the planning process too. Sean met with me numerous times prior to the wedding to ensure the planning process was going smoothly and to ensure all expectations I had of him were met. His online process of picking songs and filling out forms is so easy and efficient and also lots of fun to do as a couple! All I can say is he blew our expectations away. We received compliments over and over again that we had such an incredible dance floor and the music selection was incredible (all thanks to Sean!) Sean was the most incredible MC, making the crowd laugh and entertain them throughout the night! He had awesome ideas to make our wedding day unique and we couldn’t of asked for a better vendor as our DJ/MC!
I think Sean was more of our event coordinator than the actual event coordinator was. The title Disc Jockey falls short of what Sean provides to an event as he is truly a Master of Ceremonies.
I cannot recommend Carlson Entertainment enough. Sean was so professional and there every step of the way, literally. We had multiple meetings set up to make sure that we had exactly what we wanted, and he made sure everything went as smooth as possible from the ceremony all the way to the end on the dance floor!!
Sean was outstanding! We had so much fun at our wedding and would recommend Carlson Entertainment to anybody. He kept the party moving, was very personable, and made sure that we were always in the know on what was happening. Amazing service!
Sean is amazing to work with! Very organized and creative. The photo booth was a huge hit with guests.
We had Missy from Carlson as our DJ at our wedding. She was FANTASTIC. I can honestly say there was not 1 single song that came on all night that I was bummed about it being played. She could read the crowd and knew the right jams to keep the party pumping. We found Carlson because they were a preferred DJ for our reception hall, The Metropolis Resort. So glad we found them and they were part of our day!
I was very happy with choosing Carlson Entertainment for our DJ on our wedding day! Sean and Missy are both very friendly and awesome at what they do! Missy did an amazing job and helped to make our day perfect! I would recommend choosing them to be a part of your special day!
Sean created such an amazing experience for us and our guests that beyond exceeded our expectations for our wedding day! His commitment to his clients knows no bounds - from providing ideas, very user-friendly online planning forms, timeline coordination, and even helping one of the kids in our family find a band-aid after he scraped his knee at the reception (talk about a full-service DJ)! He made the entire day so seamless and fun, and our guests absolutely loved his energy and friendliness. The dancefloor was never empty, and the playlist was just perfect for us. A perfect, stress-free experience for sure!
He has such a big heart and a very clear passion for what he does. We loved working with him and would recommend Sean and Carlson Entertainment over and over again!
Sean with Carlson Entertainment is hands down the best DJ we could’ve hired. He was so professional the entire time. He was very organized during the planning phase. I never had to reach out to him to set meetings up. You get email reminders for everything which is super helpful when you have a million things on your mind. I can’t speak to his other DJs, but I’m sure they’re great too if they were hired by Sean. The day of was perfect. He got the crowd involved in the shoe game we played and kept the guests on the dance floor all night. I heard lots of compliments from guests about the DJ specifically.
Carlson Entertainment was recommended to us from a friend, and we are so happy that we chose to go with them! The entire experience from planning to execution of the wedding day was perfect, professional, and everything you could ever want and more! The extra additions that Sean made to our day were some of our favorite moments of our wedding. Choose Carlson Entertainment for your special day, you'll be so happy you did!
“Best DJ ever” we heard that from multiple guests and the head of our wedding reception venue was so impressed he is adding Carlson Entertainment to their preferred vendors list as their TOP recommendation for a DJ. Sean kept the party going and had fun elements that guests had not seen before (example: Family Feud😀). Professional, funny and enjoys what he does, this is the place to go for a fantastic DJ experience!
If you need a DJ for your event, look no further than Carlson Entertainment. Can choose multiple packages that fit your event and they do not try and push anything on you. Wedding planning is stressful, with Sean it is a breeze. This is one vendor where if you have an idea, share it with him and if he thinks it will work he will do it! 10/10 for Carlson Entertainment, thank you so much for making our day so special!
Shawn did an amazing job of formatting everything into a personalized and fun experience. We had a great time working with him! Everything was smooth, headache free, and fun.
I highly recommend using Carlson Entertainment for your wedding! We hired Sean and his awesome team for their services and were blown away by how well everything went. They offer very unique services that will leave your guests in awe! Sean goes above and beyond to make sure everything is absolutely perfect for your day! We can’t say enough great things about this company!
Sean was absolutely amazing to work with! Truly the best DJ in Eau Claire and the surrounding areas! He is very personable and has a lot of fun and creative ideas! All of our guests at our wedding thought he was awesome too! My husband and I have been to a lot of weddings over the years and have never seen the creative ideas that he has come up with! I would highly recommend him for your wedding! It’s a day you will never forget!
We are so happy we went with our friends recommendation to use Sean as our DJ! He helped the day go on without a hitch and he knows how to throw in some flare. Highly recommend!
We found Carlson Entertainment through our wedding venue recommended list. When we initially met with Sean over Skype, we immediately knew that he was the one wanted to work with for our upcoming wedding. Right from the beginning, he was always offering to help with anything that we needed, even if it didn't pertain to our music. Sean made us feel like we didn't need to worry about any of the details come the day of, which was so comforting especially since we worked with our day of coordinator through emails.
We choose to purchase the all-inclusive package that allowed us to really personalize our wedding. We made a couple fun videos, which included our dogs, that we surprised our guests with. He also helped my husband surprise me by pre recording him singing our first dance song. Everyone still raves about all of the little details that our wedding will forever be remembered by. We highly recommend Carlson Entertainment to anyone who is getting married.
Sean was our DJ and also sang/played guitar/provided equipment for the ceremony. He is 100% amazing! I was very impressed. His meetings with us before the wedding were very thorough and he helped us figure out how to arrange the venue for best sound and helped us select songs for our ceremony and reception. I still can’t believe how awesome he was. Highly recommend him and his company!
This was definitely one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. Sean did an absolutely amazing job, and made our wedding so fun. He helped plan and coordinate everything and took the stress off of us. All our guests danced all night!
Shawn W did a fantastic job. He filtered in personal comments we shared with him and maintained an awesome dance party for our guests. We received many compliments on how fun the dance was. Dance floor was always packed as well.
Carlson Entertainment provided the perfect music for our wedding! They are true professionals, and we are so happy with everything! All of our guests loved them too! They performed live music for all aspects of our special day – ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, dance. They were able to showcase their full range of talent – from classical ceremony music, to background cocktail hour music, to upbeat and modern dance music! Sean is great to work with throughout the planning process, and he is full of great ideas! He pulled together the perfect quartet of musicians to perform for us, and he even made it a special point to learn and perform our first dance song live and that added such a nice touch to the day. During the reception and dance, they were great at reading the crowd and performing songs that kept things joyous and lively!
We had the opportunity to have Carlson Entertainment provide the DJ and MC services for our reception. We couldn't be more happy with the quality of entertainment! Zach was our MC and DJ for the night and he did awesome! We loved that from the beginning they were 100% focused on doing what myself and my husband were looking for. We had the option for personalizing everything! Our guests loved the variety of music and he had everyone dancing all night, which was a surprise to us because our families are not the dancing type! Many of our guests came up to us and said that it was one of the best receptions they have been to in a while and really enjoyed what Zach had to offer for our reception!
We highly recommend Carlson Entertainment, they will not disappoint!!
Carlson Entertainment is the best! Sean is fun to work with and is very creative. He has lots of ideas and thinks outside the box to give you the most entertaining night. When I saw him perform at a friends wedding, I knew I wanted him for my wedding. We received lots of compliments from our guests. We also had a violinist and Sean played piano during the ceremony. Sean suggested a photo booth and at first I was hesitant because I was trying to keep costs down, but I'm glad we did the photo booth. Family and friends were there all night getting fun pictures taken. if you want the best, go with Carlson entertainment. You won't be disappointed!
Sean was awesome. There was an issue with a DJ that was to be provided by our vendor that resulted in being without a DJ on Friday afternoon with a Sunday wedding. Sean was available and went above and beyond to Help us plan our day last minute. Helping with song selection was awesome and those songs will forever be a part of the most memorable parts of the day. I am so grateful that we were directed to Carlson Entertainment. Sean played an huge role in our day turning out to be the beautiful celebration of Love that it was. He was Fun, entertaining, organized and very professional even in the face of difficult venue staff. Everyone had a good time. I am grateful.
We used Carlson entertainment for our wedding and had Sean as our DJ, everything was amazing from the planning pre-wedding to the easy flow with the individualized grand march and first dance. Sean made everything easy and worry free for our day and we enjoyed the professionalism and excellent quality of work to complete our Wedding day. We would highly recommend them for any event!
