Gina was phenomenal to work with. She was easy to book, so flexible with meeting us (we planned our wedding from another city), and was super responsive. She was thorough in asking...
about songs we wanted to hear, songs that were requested, and most importantly, songs we *didn't* want to hear. I absolutely adored working with her. She even matched her outfit to our wedding colors! An absolute delight and super reliable. I definitely recommend her to any and all looking for a DJ for their big day.
Gina was incredible. So easy to communicate with. So personable. Our wedding ran smoothly from start of ceremony to end of reception! Please book her for all of your events!
Jason did an incredible job at our November wedding! He was super responsive and easy to work with. On the wedding day he did a great job keeping everyone on the dance floor from o...
ur 3-5 year old little cousins to my 90 year old grandfather. He was also a great MC and kept everything running smoothly during the reception. We are so thankful for everything Jason did for us to make our day so amazing!

ng at weddings is usually not one of our favorite parts of the wedding as guests, so we weren't expecting to enjoy being on the dance floor at our wedding very much, but it was one of the best parts of the day because Jason did such a great job playing exactly the right songs to keep the energy where it needed to be. He also checked in with us as the bride and groom regularly to see if we needed anything or if we had any different requests. He's an excellent DJ and also just a really great guy. Our friends and family all thought he did an amazing job, especially my cousin who got to dance to all her favorite Taylor Swift songs. Jason is the absolute best and if you're thinking you want a DJ for your wedding in St. Louis, Jason is 100% your guy.
We were so happy that we chose Gina and Crucial Entertainment as our wedding DJ! Gina was fantastic to work with and responsive to all of our requests and needs. Her talent brought...
the house down with a lively mix that captivated the dance floor! I would highly recommend Gina and Crucial Entertainment for a wedding or any other event!

fectly!
Jason did my sister’s wedding in 2021 and mine in 2025. We are constantly getting compliments to this day on how amazing Jason made everything.
We have absolutely loved working with Jason and we cannot recommend him enough!!
Gina was absolutely amazing!!
From our first meeting, Gina was very invested and intentional. She puts a lot of thought and time into her DJ events. It's important to her to get ...
to know her clients and our music styles before she arrives to your event, which we really appreciated! She wanted to ensure she created an evening that represented us and our music style, and she definitely did! I remember from our first meeting, she said, "This is going to be the wedding of the year!" It gave me butterflies! Gina absolutely delivered beyond our wildest dream! So many guests came up to me throughout the evening and the days after the wedding just raving about our DJ. The dance floor was packed all night! She read the room and played banger after banger which made it impossible to leave the dance floor!
Gina is the BEST DJ I've ever experienced. She is polite, professional, and so, very skilled at what she does. Her responses are prompt and detailed. It was an honor to have her expertise for our wedding reception! She made our reception more fun and lively than we could've ever dreamed! Highly recommend!!!
Gina was the DJ for our wedding and she was wonderful throughout the entire process. She figured out the music tastes of the guests and really made the dance floor a special place ...
to be, especially during the last hour! We had so many compliments on our DJ from guests during and after the wedding. She was extremely professional and helpful- I remember being overwhelmed during the wedding planning process and our meetings with her really helped me find small details I had overlooked and think of new ideas that I had not before!
Jason was absolutely amazing from the first moment we talked to him. He had great energy and was truly down to earth! He went above and beyond to make our special day even better! ...
He went above and beyond!
Gina was absolutely amazing at our wedding! She was super easy to work with and kept such amazing energy on our dance floor. We called an audible on her at the last minute and she ...
made it happen without blinking an eye. Couldn't recommend her enough!
Jason was great! He was lots of fun, brought great energy and kept us on our toes - we never knew what was coming next. He was also very easy to work with.
Jason was so fun and high energy and dedicated to making sure we weren’t worried about anything. Had a BLAST
Gina hands down kept the party going for our wedding! We gave Gina our vision for the wedding and she executed it perfectly. From mashups to smooth transitions, she kept all of ou...
r guests dancing until the very end and we received so many compliments because of her.
Gina was also very organized and easy to communicate with. She met up with us a few weeks before our event to do a final walk through which put us at ease. Gina even had the task of coordinating sound for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and executed them perfectly! I’d highly recommend Gina to DJ your next event!!
Jason was absolutely amazing to work with! From the initial talk over the phone, I could immediately sense how entertaining and professional he was going to be! It was also amazing...
that me and my now husband had the opportunity to meet him before our big day and talk through timelines and details that were important to us.
One of my favorite parts of the evening was when Jason helped us pull off a gender reveal! When we brought it up at our meeting, Jason seemed so excited to be a part of it and helped us make it truly memorable!
Thank you Jason and Crucial Entertainment for your help making our wedding a truly memorable and joyful experience! I can not recommend you enough!
Gina was an amazing DJ for our wedding! She initiated the conversations/meetings and always answered our questions promptly! You can have as little or as much input on music as you...
want, but she can definitely be trusted to pick any of the music! My cousin was performing live keyboard for the ceremony, and Gina worked with him to make that work logistically with no issues. Thanks, Gina!
No need to look for another DJ - you already found the best one!
I hired Gina for my 50th Bday celebration and I cannot say enough amazing things about her. Not only is she a real...
ly cool human, she is super professional and organized and has an amazing setup. But most importantly, her DJ skills are off the charts. From start to finish, working with Gina was a fantastic, stress-free experience. My only regret was not getting the people at my party to dance sooner!
Jason was hands down awesome. He was everything you would want from a DJ at your wedding, and then some. The most important thing, he kept the dance floor jumping all night. He was...
able to improvise based on the crowd and never missed a beat. Furthermore, he took the extra time to make sure our day was perfect. He brought us drinks while we finished up pictures. He literally made our dinner plates for us (it was self-serve). He stayed late for us to have a last dance once everyone cleared out of the venue. I really can’t say enough about him and how thankful we are. Do not hesitate to book him, whether for a wedding, party, etc.
Jason from Crucial B Entertainment was nothing short of incredible! He is so friendly, helpful, and easy to communicate with. We were able to meet in person beforehand and go over ...
everything which I appreciated (it felt a lot better than doing it over a phone call). I had made a bunch of Spotify playlists and he was able to help me edit them for all of the different parts of the ceremony/reception (including all of my crazy specific requests like walk-up songs for speeches, making mash-ups of certain songs, playing a Greek dance for my mom etc.). On the day of the wedding Jason was incredibly helpful - my sister officiated the wedding (her first time) and Jason helped her navigate the ceremony and even stepped in to announce where the cocktail hour was and that family should stay for photos. As the MC, he kept the whole night flowing seamlessly and provided a great vibe as the host. I am still getting compliments about the dance floor from guests two weeks later - multiple people told me that this was the only wedding they have been to where they didn’t sit down once or skip a song! The dance floor was popping all night and Jason even handed out our glow sticks for us and kept my husband and I hydrated (both with drinks & ice cold H2O!)
We bonded so much throughout this process that I am literally going to recommend him to all of my friends, family, and loose acquaintances. I could not recommend Jason at Crucial B more!!
Its so lit!
We had DJ GINA DIGITY at our 175-person wedding. We LOVE to party and dance, and knew we had to have a very fun DJ. Gina went above and beyond!! She is METICULOUS abou...
t getting the vibes right at your wedding. We heard every song we wanted and more. Everyone (even old people) were out dancing at our wedding. I was having the time of my life thanks to Gina. Her set up was so classy and did not detract from our elegant wedding. We also loved supporting a female DJ. Women are just so reliable, organized, and better at most things (let's be honest). If you want a SUPER lit wedding--hire Gina!!
I picked Jason for our wedding party purely based on the reviews that I read on this website and he delivered!! My one request was to keep the party going and he did exactly that. ...
The little things he did throughout the day were getting us a plate of appetizers or else we would have never gotten any and he also went through the buffet line with me (the bride) to make me a plate. My mom asked the day of for him to play a clip of a song during her speech and he nailed that. Also throughout the night, he wasn’t just a DJ but also a “host” for the transitions from each activity to the next which helped keep everyone engaged! He took control of the reception and I was just able to sit back and relax- which was awesome because I didn’t have a wedding planner. He even put a short video together of pictures from his point of view from the night. Lastly, he brought us some homemade apple butter!!
Gina is the absolute best in the business!! Throughout the planning process she was professional, responsive, and always bringing new ideas to the table for us to consider. She wen...
t above a beyond to make sure our day met our vision. I was especially appreciative that she custom-cut our first dance and my dance with my dad and provided those to us so we could practice. She ensured all my and my dad’s favorite verses were included and sounded seamless - no cheesy fade-out. She kept our guests engaged and on the dance floor and even created a new family wedding tradition by playing one of our family’s “must play” songs as our exit. Gina is incredibly affordable for the level of service she provides and we couldn’t be more thankful for how thoughtful, helpful, and fun she was on our big day!
Some of our friends got married last year and had Gina as their DJ and we had SO MUCH FUN on the dance floor and knew we wanted to hire her too. She was a delight to work with, we ...
met with her virtually twice before the wedding to go over all the details and her online portal makes it super easy to select all the songs. We got married at a summer camp that required three different sound set ups for the ceremony, dinner, and dancing and Gina worked with our coordinator to make it absolutely seamless, everything just happened perfectly without us having to lift a finger. Our guests were partying it up on the dance floor until the very end of the dancing portion and we got so much feedback that everyone had an amazing time. Something I love about Gina is she doesn’t leave a song on too long, she switches it up often and it keeps everyone on their toes. Highly recommend her for any engaged couples looking for their wedding DJ!
OMG! They were amazing!! We had Gina for our wedding day, and we were told by multiple people (including us) and multiple vendors she was the best DJ they've ever seen. Everyone wa...
s on the dance floor the ENTIRE night. Gina was also dressed extremely professional and was very attentive to my husband and me! Leading up to the wedding she was easy to get a hold of, very flexible for our needs and wants, and made sure all our requests were executed. On the day of, Gina would come over and make sure we were okay throughout the night like making sure we had drinks and we were overall happy. From the day we booked her, she has been amazing. If you can get Gina, DO IT. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT! Promise!!!

or/part outdoor summer wedding and reception, and he was ready with two set-ups, so we could be flexible depending on the weather. A wedding DJ isn’t just in the background playing music: he’s really your MC for the event— introducing the wedding party as they come into the reception, keeping the flow of events running smoothly, making sure no one is just standing around bored, etc. Jason was amazing in this role! He was personable, organized, and had everyone enjoying themselves on the dance floor! He even gave my sister some DJing lessons and let her choose some songs! He and our wedding coordinator and our venue all worked so well together, and they commented how happy they are when they have events with him. Highly recommend!

tions were amazing, she was amazing with the song transitions and kept everyone on the dance floor the whole night. She was great to work with and went out of her way to make our day unforgettable. I will be recommending her services to any and all of my friends and family. She had excellent communication and answered any and all of our questions we had. She is a top choice and one of the best!
Thank you so much again and take care!

orking with her. She is so approachable but professional, so chill but energetic. Gina even connected us with a performer for our after-party! She operates a well-oiled machine while also customizing everything for your special experience. We felt like Gina "got us" off the bat. She reviewed our Spotify playlists (plays/don't plays), kept things moving with only the best parts of songs, and avoided all the stereotypical cheesy DJ bits. Bonus: we weren't even hungover the next day because we couldn't stop dancing to excessively imbibe! Your search is over - book now!

Thanks Jason!!!

nely interested in getting to know what we wanted from our experience. Then of course the execution of the DJ'ing at our reception was great. We wanted to switch the vibe up towards the end of the night but weren't sure when and she kept checking in with us to make sure that her timing was right. The flexibility and open communication allowed us to have the exact experience that we wanted and our guests were all dancing the entire time. 10/10, definitely recommend!!
Where do I even start? Gina was our DJ for my wedding in Aug '23. Gina was phenomenal and rocked our wedding playlist! My husband and I were incredibly picky with regards to our DJ...
since we met as wedding event servers and saw so many DJs from the best of the best to the meh. It was essential to me to find someone who would be able to keep the energy of the room up and everyone on the dance floor. Throughout the planning process, she was very easy to contact and bounce ideas off of regarding music choices and flow for the wedding day. Based upon our conversations, I had no doubts that she understood my vision for the reception. On our wedding day, I was incredibly impressed with how often she checked in with us to see if we needed anything--from our dinner to music. I don't think I ever saw any other DJs do that from previous weddings I attended. Once the dance floor opened, she played a wide variety of tunes for my guests--from my Swifty sister to the Alt groomsmen to my Kpop loving MIL. I got so many compliments from my guests throughout the night and the days following. Needless to say, I will definitely be recommending Crucial Entertainment for any future DJ worthy events that my friends and family plan in the future.

Gina is literally THE best! Music was our top priority for our reception and she absolutely nailed it. The dance floor was always going and the biggest compliment we got was the mu...
sic selection and how fun the evening was because of it. Not to mention how kind and cool she was. Between bringing us drinks during photos, double checking information, and making sure we felt safe all evening it felt like we were hanging out with an old friend. If I could make a recommendation for anybody we used for our wedding day, it would 100% be Gina.

of my worries of not happening. My friends and family are not much on dancers so we went over that concern in some of our meetings. Gina also made sure we had drinks in our hands and most importantly jumped in when our live music for cocktail hour canceled on us. We would hire Gina all over again.
Gina was awesome to work with! She communicated very well with us and always answered out emails/texts promptly. She made sure everything we wanted was done, and was done perfectly...

Half of my husband's immediate family tested positive with COVID the day before and of the wedding (including some who were giving speeches) and could not attend.

Thank you for helping us throw a great party and keeping my drink full throughout the night!
