Complete Weddings + Events Albuquerque

ce the big day hit, we found out a few hours before our reception that our venue had flooded the night before. Needless to say it was a panic finding a new venue with only a couple hours. Once we found a new venue to host our reception, everyone pitched in to get the space ready. Not only did Justin at Complete get all of his equipment set up on time but he was running around bussing tables and helping to decorate so that we could get the party started on time. He went above and beyond what he was hired to do, something that is very rare. Once the reception started he was spot on with everything. He played all the music I had requested in our previous meetings, got involvement from all our guests with a dance I had requested which made for wonderful memories!! All night our guests were commenting on how "amazing" our DJ was. He felt like part of the family and not some cheesy, annoying DJ. We were beyond pleased with the price, product, and most of all the professionalism of Justin and Complete. They helped give us the reception of our dreams!!

can definitely see why- Manuel, our DJ, was very outgoing, personal, and funny. He kept the party going- for the most part. Maybe we weren't specific enough, which is entirely possible, but he kept the "oldies" going a little too long (we had originally emphatically agreed with his plan to play oldies for a bit at the beginning of the reception for older guests), and that dragged a bit. He also didn't take a lot of requests, even though we were fine with requests and encouraged them. But overall, he was great and even helped me with a special surprise for my husband! We also got a photo booth through Complete- Ryan, our operator, was very funny and helpful, and the photo booth was a HIT! Overall, I'd highly recommend Complete!

just as we asked.

equently were told he couldn't play their requests. We also had a short break where my husband and I went to take sunset pictures and the DJ was asked to play some stuff for the kids to dance to and he told my mother it wasn't time for dancing yet. Everyone had fun, I wouldn't say he ruined my wedding or anything like that, but I really don't feel like he gave us the service we paid for. $950 for a DJ, you expect someone who will do what you ask.

ur DJ had a hard time getting it started. I was really nervous that it wasn't going to work at all, but after about 4 tries, he got it to work. Other than that, we had a great time and the DJ that was selected for us was a perfect fit with our personality. Complete Music does a great job of asking what type of music you would like to hear and the type of personality you're looking for in a DJ.

eline whatsoever. We were late for the grand entrance but that was my fault but then after dinner we were supposed to do cake cutting and toasts it wasnt until my grandmother came up to me and said she was going to have to leave that I noticed it had been a long time since dinner. Unknown to me we were now 2 hours behind schedule!!!! I had to go to the DJ and ask him to start the scheduled events! The schedule may not seem important to some but because he didnt keep to the schedule both our grandparents and my aunt/uncle and cousins left because it was getting so late. Also when he came and set up he moved the table from the corner I had set it up in to right in front of the doors that we were doing the grand entrance through. When my now mother-in-law went and told him this he said "well its already set up here" thankfully my mother-in-law is a strong woman and did not stand for this and the table was moved. I will say he made great selections for the music and kept the atmosphere great all night thats the only reason they didnt get 1 star. If you want just someone to play great music they are the DJ for you but if you want a party DJ they unfortunately are not.

the moment my new hubby and I left the reception, cheered on by our friends, Complete Music was fabulous. I should mention that of all things I wanted at my reception, I wanted family and friends to have a really good time and actually fill the dance floor. My wishes could not have been fulfilled in a better way! Will, our DJ was incredible. He met with my then fiance and I at a coffeshop and went over every detail of song choice and timing with us. When we did not know what to choose or how to do something, his suggestions were perfect. He had of course thousands and thousands of song choices and helped us pick out personal songs for special moments. We left some of the general fun songs up to him and his choices during the entire evening were spot on every time. Will himself was very knowledgeable, kind, personal and he was excellent in every way, even down to how impeccably dressed he was the day of the wedding. We enjoyed working with him a lot. We got a ton of compliments after our wedding on how much fun it was and how everyone loved the dancing. The dance floor was literally filled the entire night, with people of all ages. Not just our young friends, but our parents and older relatives and coworkers. People had a ton of fun. We laughed and danced and totally got lost in the moment. This was all possible, because a good DJ is the person who keeps the schedule on track. Will knew what time dinner was, when to begin the first dance, when to start the cake cutting, etc. He came to us several times during the evening and asked us if we wanted to stay on schedule or do this before that or when we would like to do our final walk out. We had an entire schedule beforehand, but things always go a little differently and he was flexible and cared about what we really wanted. He was a wonderful MC, with just the right voice and perfect timing. I've been to weddings where the DJ did not seem to care and played songs like a robot, regardless of how lame the party atmosphere was. Not so here! He was attentive, had excellent choices and we found out later how great the dancing was long after we left. All in all, go with Complete Music. Even better, ask for Will. I may go as far to say that this was the best choice we made for our wedding day, out of all our vendors. They are that good.

pen. Will definitely work with again, everyone had so much fun!

f all the special songs that were our dances. Now thats a great vendor!

meone begged for a little more variety. Very nice man, though.

s, etc. They day of the reception they were to have speakers set up in the lobby to play music during the cocktail hour - this was not done even though I spoke with the DJ while he was setting up the reception. He assured me he was going to do this next, but never did! He did not get "control" of the room to announce the wedding party, so it looked really sloppy. He did do a good job after that of getting people out on the floor, but refused to take requests except from the groom, even though he was told it was ok. Plus, the DJ was hitting on one of the bridesmaids (married one at that!).

event and asking if there was anything he could help with. Our only reservation in booking with the company was our initial consult with the owner. He was very good at talking up his company, but when it came to the nitty gritty details he did a lot of sidestepping. If you go with this vendor, read the contract carefully and know what you want your DJ's role to be the day of so it's in writing before you hand over the deposit!

ck Casino prior to the wedding to work any video kinks out...so not sure who was really to blame on this although my finger tends to point towards Hard Rock Casino. But the actual music and DJ were great and we were very happy with our services. Becky and Derrick Welch 4/16/11
