Dave DJ'ed for our wedding in Des Moines. He was exactly what we were looking for. He was many years of experience and created an amazing and fun environment for our guests. We met multiple times before the big day to hash out all of the details of what we were wanting and he listened to our requests and made it such a great experience for us and our guests! 10/10 recommend!
Any questions?

Dave was a friend of my late father and we can see why he loved him so much! From his wonderful personality to his professionalism, he kept our wedding fun and lively. Due to weather, we had some last minute timeline changes and he was more than accommodating. Our guests have coined our wedding as one of their best times ever- and a whole lot of that was due to Dave's skill as our DJ. Great value for the money!!

Dave was GREAT to work with. We were able to meet with him several times before the wedding reception to talk about needs for us and for Dave. Dave did a great job of playing songs we like and was able to make an "uncommon" song request happen! With Dave as our DJ, we knew everything would be taken care of and he was really easy to work with.

Dave deejayed our wedding 1/20/2024. He is awesome to work with and ensured we stayed on track with our timeline throughout the whole night! His communication and expertise during the planning process helped us identify what traditions and elements were important to us, and even some details we had not thought of prior. We took song requests from our guests on our RSVPs and he was able to accommodate the many songs we hoped to hear throughout the night. We have known Dave a long time and would recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding or event DJ.

Dave was the DJ for our wedding back in October. His communication before the wedding made planning our wedding a lot easier. We were able to customize our DJ experience however we wanted. He played a great blend of our wedding guest requests, as well as a selection of the hits. His music choices kept the dance floor packed all night. He was even flexible with guest requests that night! I would highly recommend Dave to anyone who needs a DJ.

We could not have been happier with Dave for our wedding reception event. Dave was responsive, friendly and made sure all of the bride and groom's song requests were covered. Everything was set up and ready to go on time and he played a wide variety of music for the young and older crowd. There was a last minute request to play entry songs for all of the wedding party which he got together quickly. Thank you for a great night! Would defnitely recommend!

If you are looking for a DJ for any event, look no further than Dave Kroeger and his D&J Productions. He was the DJ at my son's wedding, and we could not have been any happier! He met with us a couple of times prior to the big day, he listened and took notes, he is the consummate professional, fun and overall great guy! Book him now as the word on the street says the same thing! :)
