BOOK THIS DJ IMMEDIATELY! I can't say enough good things about Core Elite Entertainment/Devin/DJ Penny. He was super responsive over email and listened and followed through on ever...
ything we asked for. He perfectly mixed an abbreviated track for our first dance. Even though he was only booked for reception music, he arrived early and provided audio equipment for the ceremy. He expertly adjusted to the addition of a last minute speech. His announcements were super professional and clean.
Once the dance floor was open for the evening, it was super important to me that it was bumping all night, and DJ Penny DELIVERED. He did an incredible job of monitoring how the crowd was responding to the song and mixing into something else if they weren't feeling it, or letting it play longer if it got everyone moving. Some quotes from our guests: "you win the award for the best wedding music of all time", "man, this DJ will not let us rest! Banger after banger!".
He is an absolutely incredible DJ, and an amazing value! Cannot recommend more highly!
Absolute perfection!!! He not only delivered exactly what I asked for but personally came to me during the reception to make sure he had played all the songs I had wanted which I l...
oved cause it showed how much he cared to follow my outline of the night and everything went exactly how we dreamed. He did a beautiful edit of songs when I needed them revised to fit time lengths and he did so good with our traditional Bulgarian dancing performance and I know it’s hard to work with music in different languages but it went so smooth. Great team to work with and they were so fun!
Devin was the absolute best. He is a true professional and I had no worries at all as the bride. He kept the party going and read the crowd perfectly. He was a wonderful MC and we ...
couldn’t be happier with his services. If you use Core Elite Entertainment, you will not be disappointed!

ol dances and he DELIVERED! Thank you for making it a great night!! We also loved that he brought the foam glow sticks for everyone at no extra charge, what a fun surprise!
Devin and Core Elite Entertainment did an absolutely amazing job DJ-ing our wedding!!! Keeping the dance floor lively was one of our top priorities during the wedding planning proc...
ess, and Core Elite Entertainment crushed it. I cannot tell you how many weddings my wife and I have been to where the DJ either plays the entire song or picks music that kills the energy. I promise that if you book Core Elite Entertainment, there will never be a dull moment on the dance floor. Choosing Core Elite Entertainment was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day.
Devin was amazing. He was quick to respond to any questions or request, he showered up early to set up, and he had the dance floor packed all night. We had so many comments on how ...
great he did. His prices are fair and well worth the amazing energy he brought all night long. We had a saxophonist as well which he worked great with.
Best DJ EVER! He went with the flow and never backed down from a challenge or change and kept the fun flowing. We will use you again for other parties!
Devin was fantastic from start to finish. Very professional and responsive. His pricing is also extremely competitive and fair. Devin made it very easy to stay organized on our mus...
ic decisions, and his performance at the wedding was absolutely perfect. We had some specific timing requests for of our song selections, and he nailed them all. He’s also great at reading the dance floor and knowing what to do to keep it lively. He also incorporated some UGA tunes without us having to ask because he knew we were UGA alumni, which ended up being some of the best parts of our reception. If you need a DJ for your wedding, Devin is the person for you.
You’re about to make a GREAT choice with Core Elite Entertainment and Devin Lowery.
We thought: unless you’ve been to a DJ’s event, it’s going to be hard to know 100% if they wil...
l make or break your event. It’s really on faith that your DJ will show up and maximize your event’s flow and fun. But Devin’s best reviews were totally true- and I’m so grateful to be able to contribute another top review as well.
I want to do my part and assure you that Devin’s services were an absolute gift to us at our wedding. Nothing could have been improved in any small way.
Devin is an MC with a fine tuned sense of crowd control. We submitted some specific timings for ceremony songs and thankfully Devin knew to extend or shorten them when needed- like a psychic he just knew how to fill the unexpected delays. I (the groom) took waaay too long to greet my bride’s parents below the altar. Devin kept the music rolling and perfectly faded out when I finally get my bride up to our officiant, keeping the momentum alive. I can’t imagine how awkward or rushed it would have felt if the music stopped for 20 seconds before “dearly beloved…”
His equipment was tuned, connected, and clear throughout the whole night of ceremony and celebration. His musical intuition guaranteed we got every possible ounce of appropriate energy from each song. When the crowd started slowing down he’d fade immediately into the next, better song for the group dynamic. Some songs played longer, some shorter, and we never wanted to leave the dance floor. And we didn’t.
I can’t thank Devin enough- he is completely responsible for turning our dream wedding into the best party of our lives!
Incredible job by Devin. Recommend to all. Matched the vibe, brought great energy, very adaptable.
Devin was kind and professional! He was able to easily cater to our crowd which had a wide range of tastes. We got several comments from guests about how great of a job he did, and...
we couldn't agree more! Highly recommend him for any occasion.

he most perfect day! The online form he asks couples to fill out for their wedding day playlist made it so much easier to figure out what all songs and transition music we needed. Should I have another event requiring a DJ, I will book with Core Elite Entertainment without a second thought!!!
Fantastic DJ! We received many compliments on the music played and generally great time that people were having, which we owe in big part to Core Elite! I really appreciated the fo...
rm which allowed me to easily choose music for each of the reception "moments" and add a few must plays to help get some specific guests of ours out on the dance floor. Definitely recommend Core Elite to anyone looking for a great party!

music and I truly enjoyed every song you played. It set just the vibe I wanted for the wedding and my guests really enjoyed it. In terms of booking, you were extremely kind and patient with all of our questions and requests. You never made me feel like I was asking for too much and you didn’t treat me like I was the millionth bride you’ve dealt with even though I’m sure you’ve done a lot of weddings. Your setup was great and your coworker was just as nice. Thank you so much for being so wonderful on such a special day.
Core Elite was hired as a DJ services for my cousin's wedding. I was gifting my cousin with their services and turned out that they were a gift to us all. The family and friends ...
enjoyed their musical selections while I was impressed by their punctuality, and professionalism. I don't see wedding bells in my near future but I definitely use their services for another celebration.
Devin is exactly the kind of DJ you want at your wedding or event. He is super likable, has a great personality, infectious smile, & is highly skilled at MCing & music selection/ma...
nagement. Simultaneously, he does not at all steal the show from the bride, groom, or whomever is in the spotlight. He will make you and your event shine brighter!
In addition, he always responded right away (often just a few minutes after) we emailed him during the days & months leading up to the wedding. On the day of, he arrived early, set up seamed seamless, he played all the songs at all the right times for the ceremony and special reception moments. He is intuitive, so he’s good at watching the crowd and will fade songs out if people aren’t into it. He will honor all your requests. I highly recommend Core Elite!
Amazing communication and he was great to work with!! He made our wedding flow so well. We had to make some changes during our reception and he had no issues adjusting to them. Co...
uldn’t recommend him enough!! So glad we found him!
We had Core Elite Entertainment as our DJ for our March wedding at the Tate House and we are so glad we went with them!! Devin was always super quick to respond and was so helpful ...
with any questions we had. The wedding questionnaire he sent out was very helpful too as it helped us narrow down which songs we needed to pick for the entire event. He played everything we asked for during the ceremony and reception and did an awesome job gauging the crowd and keeping them dancing during the reception with a great mix between slow and fast songs. We also loved that they only played clean songs. Additionally, during the reception, we could actually hear what he was saying unlike some other DJs we have heard at other weddings! Core Elite was so professional and we would definitely go with them if we ever needed DJ services in the future. I cannot recommend them enough as they helped make our wedding so special! Thank you Core Elite!
We had a great time at our wedding. The music was perfect. He followed all of our initial requests and had the perfect mix for everyone to enjoy something while still playing some ...
of our favorite hits. We are exhausted because every song was perfect and we wouldn’t leave the dance floor. Thank you!!
I wish I could give Devin more stars! He was by far my most communicative vendor throughout this whole process. His system was so organized! He made me feel extremely comfortable a...
nd confident and there was no need for anyone to micromanage or even worry about him the day of. He did music for my ceremony (outdoor) and reception (indoor) and the transition between the two was completely flawless. Our preacher unexpectedly left after the ceremony so Devin stepped up and did our welcome and blessing! Not to mention our dance floor was packed and lively the entire night! My guests are still raving about him and asking for his contact information! Book Core Elite Entertainment for your large party gigs without doubt or hesitation! I’m so glad I did!
I called Core Elite Entertainment for photo booth services for my wedding on June 19, 2021, after another company canceled last minute, after I've already paid for their services. ...
Devin the owner and operator came to the rescue. He is extremely professional. The cost for the photo booth fits well into my budget.
Next, Devin arrived at the venue a hour before our wedding for set up. His mirror photo booth was a hit at the wedding. The mirror booth setup looks like a Hollywood Red Carpet. My guest enjoyed taking pictures. Several guests stated Devin and his assistant provided awesome customer service. Devin and his staff even stayed an extra hour to make sure all guest had an opportunity to take pictures at the photo booth.
I highly recommend Core Elite Entertainment services because of their cost, customer service, professionalism. You will not be disappointed if you select this company for your Entertainment.
