DJ Connection recently did my wedding. They were so easy and reasonably priced that I was almost skeptical at first. But they did a WONDERFUL job! Our DJ was Nolan, and he took all of our suggestions, played every requested song, and kept things moving right along during the ceremony and reception. We couldn't be happier.

DJ Connection did a great job with our wedding! Everyone had a great time and the vibes were fantastic. Our DJ stopped by to chat with us a few times and confirmed timelines, specific songs, etc. It was a great time!
Any questions?

We had a great experience with DJ Connection. Their process is very easy to follow. If you are stuck on song selections, they have lists to help you out. They even meet with you twice to get the right vibe for your event. We were scheduled to have DJ Finn at our wedding, and due to car trouble, they sent DJ Jade. Jade was on time, professional, sweet, and organized. I really loved the service we had with Jade. They really read the vibe of the crowd, went with my cues, and were super fun to party with! I had multiple guests compliment him and even some asked for his information to DJ their next event!

While their planning tools and song suggestion tools were helpful, the DJ did not play any of the "must play" songs. All things considered the DJ did a fantastic job.
My biggest complaint is the bureaucracy of the DJ connection system. After asking 3 times to speak to the assigned DJ, they finally had them reach out after 4 months of asking.
3 days before my wedding the DJ was told to contact me. that is 100% on DJ connection to not let him know i wanted to confirm some details of the night. While i would book my DJ again in a heartbeat, i would never us DJ Connection again.
Vendor response 11/09/2022
Hey Jack! Thank you for the feedback about your experience with us. We are always looking ...
to improve and provide a better service for our clientele. One of the main reasons that we do not give out the DJ's contact info for clients to have access to is because things change all of the time. If we were to give out the DJ's info for you to reach out to them, they may not be in a position to answer the call. Most of our DJ's have weekly jobs during the week, so that is why we have our Production Team in place to be able to go through all of the details for the event. We always strive to make sure that we provide a phenomenal service, that is why we have alternate packages that allow you to be able to speak to the DJ months in advance. We were able to see that you had requested this months in advance, and there should have been advance steps to have this process happen sooner. We are saddened to hear that you had an unpleasant experience with our booking process, but we are happy to hear that your DJ for the event was able to make sure that you had wonderful night on your wedding night. Congratulations to you and Madison. We wish you many wonderful years of wedding bliss!

The more I think about my wedding the more upset I get about how awful our experience was due to our DJ. Our DJ rushed our whole reception. I hadn't even wiped the cake off of my face from the cake smash when he started to play the anniversary dance. The groom was barely sitting down when he got pulled by the DJ for another activity. We had the two parent dance, cake cutting, anniversary dance all without a single pause-- imagine the most rushed awkward DJ experience and that is what we had. I paid serious money for a gourmet cookie dough bar which was never announced. The ice cream bar was never even mentioned. It was up to the bride and groom to go table to table to ask people to go to the photobooth because our DJ was useless, but we couldn't go table to table because he would then announce we were throwing the bouquet with 0 warning. The whole thing was a mess and his music selection was awful. I had a guest who said can we play some rap or R&B music and he apparently noted how many white people were at the wedding. I had 3 songs on a list I absolutely needed to be in the room for them to play and heard it start playing when I was never in the room. The groom asked for a song and it was never played- that song meant EVERYTHING to us and I had noted multiple times to play it. I would never recommend this vendor to anyone. Even the planning process was awful. I was sick and throwing up as they badgered me to give them the names of my bridal party 6+ months before the wedding because they wanted to get the planning done. I had been engaged for 3 weeks it was not on my radar. The manager was super helpful in trying to get my feedback and assured me the DJ normally doesn't have as many issue, but it still was unacceptable. The groom also had to help the DJ with speaker placement because when the speeches started no one could hear the father of the bride speech and then after being fixed no one could hear any of the bridal party speeches. There were very few things that mattered to me about the reception but as I look back at my wedding I realize every thing that did matter--- the dance, the speeches, the little touches we did with an ice cream bar, etc were all ruined because our DJ was horrible.

We are also trying to do a better job of anticipating the bride and groom's needs as usually events are scheduled to happen back to back on the timeline.

We were super excited working with them, they were energetic on the phone, a good price, and had a really easy system for us to work with online. Our DJ we were assigned was not the best. He called me multiple times the day of and I had to tell him to use the number of the day of coordinator that he already had. He also messed up a part in our ceremony that my husband had asked for. He definitely was much better at the reception, he did great reading the room and keeping the energy up. We ended up giving him a great review with the company because there was A LOT of pressure to give a good rating since I guess it affects their pay. Ultimately everything was good and we enjoyed him at the reception just some room for improvement. The company was great so maybe just be careful about the DJ you're assigned.

DJ Connection was super easy and great to work with. Our DJ Byron was awesome and fun! I wish I could have had more room to request songs through the portal. 40 songs, 10 cocktail hour songs, 5 dedications, 10 Do not plays. The organization of the site was really nice for the scheduling, song selection. etc. I do wish I knew who my actual DJ was before my wedding. All calls ahead of time were done through corporate.

Starting from the beginning, everyone we talked to was very friendly. There was a few instances before we booked where we just didn’t receive a call back or the person didn’t honor the appointment we had and never called. Knowing what I know now, I probably shouldn’t have ignored that red flag and went with another DJ company. But overall, the customer service was good leading up to our wedding. However, if the customer service is great over the phone prepping for the event, but the execution is not, than what good does it do? I don’t think we got the value for what we paid for. If I had to do it all over again, we most likely would not hire DJ Connection for our wedding. This has little to do with the DJ and rather the lack of support and preparation that the company provide in executing the event. I spent many hours discussion details of the event on the phone and it seemed like we were starting from scratch the day of. Like for example, i spent time on the phone to explain the interactive game we wanted to play with the guests, yet that information was not at all relayed to our DJ so I just ended up cancelling it instead. Luckily, we had friends and family that were willing to help guide with things like - the location within the venue of setup, the music that should be played, the events of the night, etc. Seriously, no bride has time or wants to deal with these kind of things on their wedding day; they just want everything to be taken care of how they planned. Our venue was a little complex for DJ set up since there was 2 floors and a loft, and supposedly DJ Connection had DJd here before, but that definitely didn’t show; it would’ve been really nice to have a DJ that had done a job there before or if the company would’ve spent a little extra effort in prepping our DJ for that (which was totally not on the DJ). Additionally, we were told that we would have a different DJ than the one that showed up - not sure if this happened a few days before or an hour before, but it showed quite a bit. Again, luckily, everything else went smoothly, the reception wasn’t ruined or even close to a disaster and we were able to run a bit of interference so everyone still had a great time (hence why I didn’t rate them a 1/5). To me and my husband, we feel like we were just another sum of money to DJ Connection. Quite disappointing and probably the worst of our vendor selections.

Truly did not enjoy this experience at all. Everyone commented on how terrible the DJ was and someone actually ask if "we had just found the cheapest person we could find". He was late for ceremony and therefore our ceremony did not start on time. We were lined up to walk down the aisle, when I saw a man (whom I had never met before) run by us in an undershirt and dress pants, scrambling around to set up for our event--that was supposed to have already started. We were told he would be there 2 hours prior to set up for both the ceremony and reception, and to make sure everything was functioning perfectly. Once the reception had started he was supposed to introduce my parents for the welcome speech, then the matron of honor toast, followed by the best man toast, then the blessing by my father in law. He messed up this order completely. First thing he called up the best man for the toast, never introduced my parents for their welcome speech, tried to dismiss each table for food (it was a plated dinner), and then did not announce my father in law for the blessing either. The whole night seemed totally unorganized and chaotic. Once the dancing began, he would not take any song requests from our guests as "he did not have an aux cord to do so"--what DJ shows up without an aux cord and also won't take requests from guests?--thats the whole point in having the DJ there. Beyond being a terrible DJ and messing up the order of everything the entire night ,he was either SLEEPING at the DJ booth, or not even at the booth (still not sure where he kept going). He never engaged the crowd, and pretty sure he never came on the mic and said anything again after his terrible announcing of the order of events--which honestly was probably a blessing in disguise after how terribly he did for his one job of that. He was such a buzz kill for our reception that my husband had enough and literally went up to the microphone with 45 minutes to go in our own reception and shut the whole thing down. He went up and said "reception is over thanks so much for coming, we're taking this to the bar where we will have a better time". We had to end our own reception because the DJ was so terrible. Honestly would have a MUCH better experience (and cheaper) had we just hooked up a cell phone to an aux cord and speakers than this pathetic excuse for a DJ. What a nightmare of an experience and money wasted.

I loved working with DJ Connection. They made planning all the "special" dances easy through phone calls and their online system. Our DJ was fantastic and really got our guests into the music and onto the dance floor. The only reason why I didn't give them 5 stars is because the anniversary dance did not go as planned and was a bit disappointing. We had chosen ONE song to play and the DJ ended up playing three. We were also excused from the dance floor right away when I was under the impression the last people dancing should be the newest and oldest married couples. All in all, they did a great job and we were very happy we chose them!

I was SO impressed with everything this company provided. They were always super nice on the phone when you called to have questions. You are able to sign into your own portal to pick all of your songs. They are calling you to catch up with you and to see if you have any questions for them. They will get ahold of you the week of to make sure that you have EVERY song that you can on the list. The DJ was a blast at the wedding and keep you on schedule as well.
I had DJ Rey and he was AMAZING! Very high energy and kept everyone dancing. Had a bunch of complements on not only the DJ but the company as well.

We were very impressed with DJ Connection's customer service and enthusiasm from the start. The online planning portal is very convenient and helped me plan down to the smallest details for the ceremony and reception music. They were very hands-off until the final confirmation call, but also very responsive if we had a question via email and phone. I was able to log on to the portal at my convenience until a week before the wedding when we had our 2nd and final planning call to confirm our music choices. We received the name of our DJ ten days before the wedding, although they do not allow you to contact that person beforehand. The planners at DJ connection ensure that all important information is relayed for the day-of though, and everything went very smoothly. We absolutely loved our DJ and we were very impressed with his professionalism and attentiveness to us throughout the wedding. He helped to keep things moving on the schedule we provided and made sure that we were having fun in the process. Highly recommend working with DJ connection!

We had Jeff as our DJ and he was so great! He made the whole night go smoothly and worked with our coordinator to keep on schedule. He even came before the ceremony to meet us and bring us a drink! We would recommend to anyone who wants a DJ and doesn't mind not knowing who your DJ will be until a week before the ceremony. The company has great customer service and will be your point of communication until the day of.

With a very non-traditional wedding, DJ Connection was very attentive, focused on our needs, and Tasha was excellent with our families and guests. While the dancing was not the primary focus of the wedding, they were very adaptive and everyone had a great time! The thank you note was the icing on the cake, with Tasha naming my father and the great time she had chatting with him! Thank you for making our day so special and being a part of it!

I won a package with DJ Connections that was a cheaper package price that included 4 up-lights for free. I was a little hesitant with this company since I was unable to speak with my DJ prior to the wedding day. Let me tell you...THEY BLEW ME AWAY!!! They give you a portal to use to make selections for every moment of your big day. I was able to request songs that we were not even sure were going to be able to be played, and they were able to get every single one of them. On top of that they also have an area for songs you DO NOT want to play and they stick to it. He was a great MC and was able to keep the party going. I could not have been happier with the service I received over the phone either. I wasn't a highly needy bride but anytime I had question I was able to get answers. I didn't always talk to the same people but the staff her is so fun and energetic. I HIGHLY recommend using DJ Connections.

We absolutely loved our experience with DJ Connection! It started with our first call from DJ Mandy who helped us set up our initial timeline and types of music that would get played. She even sung for us when we were unsure about how a couple of line dances went! 😀
Then I called in a couple of times with questions and the other DJs that answered the phone were always very nice, helpful and quick with an answer.
Then DJ Callen for our ceremony and reception was out of this world! 🤩 He was so professional, yet so much fun, without taking over the show. He truly was exactly what we asked for in a DJ! We have had so many of our guests comment on how good our DJ was and ask where and how did we find him. DJ Connection spends so much time asking questions about what you want you reception to be like or what is your ideal DJ. Then they take all those answers and pick one of their DJs to match you. We are proof that it works and they are very good at their job!

DJ Connection was the DJ at my wedding in November 2017. They are unbelievably amazing. Not only do they travel at no extra cost they also make the entire process as stress free as possible. When you are on the phone with them setting everything up they make you feel like you are a star! Needless to say don’t look any further because you have just found your DJ! 😊

DJ Connection did an outstanding job for our wedding this past November. Jessie was our DJ and she did an amazing job. She got some "weird" requests and she always found me and asked if they were okay, for example "Baby Shark," which was totally fine because we had a lot of kids there. She kept the party going all night and I am so thankful for her handwork. Sammy was the producer who worked with us and she did an amazing job putting together our songs and accommodating our requests for some instrumental songs for the ceremony. The online portal wasn't the most friendly, but Sammy helped us out big time! So thankful for DJ Connection. I would highly recommend them to all my family and friends!

We lucked into having DJ Connection at our wedding by getting a free uplighting service from attending a bridal fair last spring. The production staff was thorough, helpful, and unexpectedly fun! Their playlist portal and planning software made the process easy. The DJ was punctual and kept everyone on the dance floor from 8pm to 1am! I was the one who had to shut the party down. Everything with DJ Connection exceeded my expectations. Our guests mentioned all night and after the wedding how much fun the reception was. I would highly recommend DJ Connection!

He went above and beyond for us. There was not a moment during our day that we didn’t know what was going on or what was to come next. He was on point throughout the whole day. He absolutely made our day PERFECT!!! 🙌🏼 Top notch DJ service for sure!

I was a little nervous to use DJ Connection at first because you don't find out who your DJ is going to be until the week of your wedding. A friend recommended DJ Connection because we were having trouble finding a good, affordable DJ. It ended up we requested to talk to our DJ the week of the wedding to get a feel for them and to kind of get to know him and for him to know our expectations. This DJ ended up not being able to come the day of the wedding, so DJ Paul covered for him, and he was simply AMAZING. Everyone had the best time dancing all night. I would definitely recommend!

DJ Connection went above and beyond my expectations of what a wedding DJ should be. Our DJ Telvis was not only an extraordinary DJ who knew exactly what to play at the right moment, he was a great dancer who truly enjoyed what he was doing. He made sure the music was flowing at just the right times. We always heard that a wedding DJ can make or break your reception and Telvis certainly made our day. Thank you tons for the good jams that kept people moving on the dance floor all night long!

He played everything that we wanted in the right order and even when things got out of order because of our wedding planner, he was great at working with us so no one knew. He kept the party alive all night long and we received SO MANY compliments on him. The planning beforehand was seamless and everyone that we spoke to was SO friendly and made sure that our day was perfect. I would highly recommend them to anyone that is in need of a DJ.

Working with DJ Connection couldn't have been easier. I reached out to them for my company's Employee Picnic in August. When I first reached out (months in advance) we got all the paperwork taken care of and they told me not to worry if I don't hear from them for a while because they would be in touch to make sure they got all final details closer to the date.
They have a very well planned out timeline that helps make sure you are on track, even if your event isn't for months. They weren't lying about getting back to you either. They reached out to me a few weeks before our picnic to talk through the schedule I had submitted to them on our online portal (that was another cool feature- you have your own online portal that allows you to lay out a timeline of when you want announcements made, certain songs played, etc.) to make sure our event ran as smoothly as possible.
The day of our event, our DJ Chris, made everything so easy for me. Not only was he very easy-going and helped reassure me that he had everything under control, he also was very flexible to any last minute changes. He had all the equipment he needed with him including wireless microphones, which were super helpful when making announcements around the different park locations.
He also got along great with our employees. If we have the ability to request a DJ again, we will definitely be requesting him. Thanks to both Chris and DJ Connection for making our company picnic one of the best to date!

My wife asked me to take point on selecting a DJ and coordinating everything with them for our wedding. A friend recommended DJ Connection for our wedding, as he and his wife had used them about a year prior, so they were my first point of contact. From the beginning, it was a great experience working with everyone! There were a couple of minor communication mixups when it came to getting the contract written up, but they were very helpful in getting things cleared up and on the way. All the planning was easily taken care of in the online client portal. That system is a bit clunky especially in organizing the event timeline, but it's still nice to be able to know exactly what's going where and have things tailored to exactly what we needed.
For our wedding, I have nothing but praise for the way things went. Timing was perfect, the DJ even was able to loop a few pieces of music seamlessly when we took longer than planned on the processional. Just a couple days before the wedding, we had some last-minute changes, and they were more than accommodating and happy to help! Everything went so smoothly for ceremony and reception, and I can't recommend DJ Connection highly enough!

This past April I had the honor of putting together my best friend’s wedding. One of the most important factors of the big day was definitely choosing the perfect DJ. DJ connection was it! Their process is different then anything I had ever seen and was so streamlined and organized. I got several calls to make sure that every detail was perfect and customized to perfection. From the coordinators to the DJ himself, everyone at DJ connection was so courteous and professional, making the process not only easy but enjoyable! Not every vendor was so understanding when speaking to the maid of honor instead of the bride, but DJ connection never treated me wrong. They were very modern and cooperative above all else. As for the music on the day of, it was perfect! The DJ followed instructions to the t, but also had his own DJ flair that was perfect for the mood of the reception. The ceremony music was great as well. His set up was quick and easy and he knew exactly what he was doing, he even brought a whole set up for a surprise performance by some of the junior members of the wedding party. Needless to say if we had the chance to do it over again we would definitely make the same choice. DJ connection was the way to go, professional, affordable, and the overall right choice. The perfect backtrack to the perfect day!

What a great group of people! Honestly, I always love when a DJ gets the party going and keeps it that way, and that’s exactly what DJ connection did at my wedding. Our Dj was easy to talk to, and so much fun! He listened to everything we asked for and when we hit bumps in the road on time after the millions of pictures we took after the ceremony he was right there to keep our guest entertained!! Seriously amazing!! I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a DJ! Thanks guys!!

My husband and I had an amazing experience with DJ connection. We would both seriously recommend their services. It was really intimidating picking a DJ and they made me feel completely comfortable. My phone conversations with them always got me so excited. DJ connection has such a positive and charismatic vibe. I was always so pumped for our wedding after our discusssions, meetings and phone calls. They made thing so easy. I just had to go into my account and pick out our songs. They knew we had a 3 yr old too so we made some kids selections and even had a song just for our son. He was soooo excited and soooo cute when it came on. We had a family dance too. Their people are easily available and always helped me with questions and concerns. Everything was made super easy for us. The DJ that night was awesome. We had so much fun. I told everyone find me on the dance floor. I lived it up and had the night of my life thanks to DJ connection. Everything from planning, being there, professionalism, service, ceremony and reception was freaking stellar!! Thank you so much DJ connection y'all did not disappoint! We loved our experience with y'all. Thank you again for making our day/night it was perfect and so special.

We hired DJ connections knowing we would not meet our DJ until the day of the wedding and yes it did give me anxiety because we had met with all our other vendors before hiring them but after two previous friend’s wedding, we loved what we saw and heard that we had to hire them. Plus, we had all sorts of discounts that allowed us to hire them for our big day and still stay within our overall budget! I also want to mention, from previous comments I have seen – I was never given a “nickname” or called other than my own name “Mikyla” and when I e-mailed them with questions throughout the planning process I received a reply within 24 hours if a weekday.
About one week from the wedding date I had a final phone meeting discussing timeline and who my DJ was going to be. We rated our event from 1-10 a 7/10 (how much involvement and crazy haha you want them to be) and it was exactly what we wanted wedding day. I want to send major kudos to our DJ from DJ connections, Matt (Rhodes?). He was dressed professionally, we heard him loud and clear without covering our ears during the reception, he was super attentive and worked super well with our day-of-coordinator, he played the songs we wanted and he avoided the songs we did not want played, he even was super accommodating when my dad placed a honeymoon fund lantern for people to donate to our honeymoon at the DJ table (a Filipino tradition – although dad wanted the money pinned to my dress like Filipino style but I was not about to let that happen ahah so he settled for a lantern, which our DJ mentioned to donate throughout the night). I believe DJ connections mentioned Matt has been with the company for 7+ years and he is phenomenal! Throughout the night, he made it about us, for example right before a special event (i.e. garter toss) he would say, “Alright everybody, give it up for our bride and groom, Mikyla and Ian”)! I LOVED that he did this because throughout the night we would get claps and cheers over and over again! Matt with DJ Connections was definitely everything we wanted in a DJ. Our experience with DJ connections was a GREAT one and Matt was exceptional!

Loved having this DJ company as part of our wedding! I am originally middle eastern, however, I was raised here most of my life. For our big day, I wanted to include some traditional Arabic songs but also have some English songs as well. I was nervous that I wouldn’t be able to do this or that the songs wouldn’t transition so well but the process was so easy! The DJ mixed the songs so well, all we had to do was update the list of songs we wanted to play on our big day. They also had a “do not play list” as well which was great! I appreciated that they really took the time to figure out what kind of wedding and reception we were looking to have. They listened so well to what we were looking for and they gave us the HUGE, AWESOME upbeat, exciting and massive celebration we were looking for!!! The only thing I was somewhat disappointed in was that I was not able to meet or speak with my DJ until the week of the wedding. I was really nervous because I wanted to make sure the assigned DJ was going to give us the kind of party we were looking for, everything luckily worked out SO WELL but if you're looking for that personal feel of knowing exactly what you’re going to get, this probably isn’t your preferred vendor. Overall SUPER happy with our experience and beyond thrilled! Would recommend to all my friends and family!

Amazing! Not only did they play good music. Our DJ was a huge help in cueing bridesmaids when to walk in, they kept checking on my husband and I periodically to see if we needed anything or if we wanted him to do anything different. The customer service was astonishing and they were the perfect addition to our wedding!..

They were great! Tons of energy, great music choices. Read the crowd really well, the songs that didn't get good response were changed really quickly. Their online portal is super helpful and they called a few days before to go over every detail of the evening. Would definitely recommend.

DJ connections was used for my sons wedding. The DJ was early. We had a home wedding and he came up with ideas for us to best utilize his service. He engaged our guests and kept all of us busy. Friendly and professional. I have another son getting married next year and we plan on using them again.

DJ Connection made our wedding the amazing success it was. My entire family enjoyed the night all night dancing and had an amazing time. Jordan was amazing and danced with us and was just an amazing DJ and made sure me and my new husband were taken care of all night. Thank you DJ connection for making our night one to remember. And the process leading up to the wedding was easy as well.

DJ Connection was amazing from the very beginning. They contacted us in a timely manner, were clear as to what to expect and financial obligations, communicated with us over the months prior to the wedding and had PERSONALITY PLUS everytime we spoke. When the wedding reception finally came, they drove everything to perfection and make everything flow. They never missed a beat and the dance floor was NEVER empty. Highly recommend.

I was nervous about using this DJ company at first, because you do not communicate directly with your DJ until sometimes, the day of the wedding. I literally did not meet my DJ until 30 minutes before the wedding. But, let me say, all my worries were gone as soon as the wedding began. He did an amazing job!! I could not have asked for a better DJ. Everything went perfect. The ceremony songs were all perfectly timed, and he made sure to play all my "Must Play" songs. It was magical, and I really appreciate all his help. The company was a dream to work with from the beginning. Communication is important to me, so they really proved themselves. I highly recommend this affordable and hard-working company. Great job!!

If I could give DJ connection 10/5 stars I would!!! Our DJ was so polite and professional. He asked me if it was okay to take requests and even allowed my family to do some karaoke. My dad and I were able to sing our favorite song together, how cool is that! The music was all exactly what we asked for, and was played so well. It definitely was a great addition to our day. I cannot say enough great things about DJ Connection!

I was so happy with this choice! I didn't even want a DJ at first but it turned out to be a great choice. Tandy was so professional and also brought us champagne to toast each other right after our "I Do's." He went above and beyond what I thought a DJ would do and I would highly recommend them! I also didn't speak to a single unfriendly person during the process. Everyone was more than helpful any time I had to call.

I can't say enough about our DJ, whose name was actually DJ! He made sure that the night was exactly what we wanted during our wedding. Everyone at the wedding was so impressed I actually have a niece who is having a wedding without a DJ that asked if she could hire DJ just to coordinate! He was so considerate and we had a great time! I would definitely recommend DJ connections especially DJ!

DJ Connection was one of the best choices I made for our wedding!! They were wonderful from setting everything up, to following up with my personal requests. Our DJ was amazing and so funny. He read the crowd the whole night and played songs that fit the mood. When he saw a song not working well, he changed into a different one. I loved everything about them and am so glad that they were part of my day

DJ Connection (and our DJ Chris) were awesome! From the moment we booked (a year out form the wedding) up until the end of our wedding, they were attentive, courteous, and professional. They spent a lot of time on the phone with us making sure that our day was going to be perfect. Then, the day of the wedding, our DJ kept checking in and asking if I needed anything (my DJ was getting me wine!).
Now for the important part. The music selection was spot on. My husband and I like a lot of music, so we were giving him a high variety of artists and genres to play from, but our DJ picked all the right songs. The dance floor wasn't empty once, and everyone commented on how awesome the music and music flow was. I definitely recommend DJ Connection!

The DJ was on time and set up ready to go. He did a good job keeping things moving along, he just didn't have the energy level that I was hoping for. He was kinda dry and didn't really interact much with the crowd. We also wanted to play the shoe game and he never did that.

DJ Connection was the absolute best for our wedding! Everyone I talked to on the phone was super helpful, and kind when it came to planning out the music for our wedding. Great suggestions and didn't try to talk me out of what I wanted. Our DJ the night of the wedding was amazing as well. He was getting us drinks and helping clear tables all while running the show. He played exactly what we wanted and even took requests. DJ Steven in KC was the best! Thank you DJ Connection for making our night memorable!

DJ Connection was the best part about our wedding! Our DJ Ryans helped us with everything from the music to decorating. he even let us use the party lights for free! he helped our coordinator keep track of everything. This was by far the best investment we made towards our big day 5/5 would 100% reccomend to anyone planning a wedding or any other big party!

I actually wasnt going to hire a DJ but I won a discount on their package through a wedding expo. Looking back I would have booked them regardless! Love their work and they handled my guests like pros and got my dance floor going! We were so incredibly disorganized the day of but they were able to make changes and make our day run smoothly! Sam was our DJ for the day and he did an amazing job!

DJ Connection did an amazing job with the music and lighting for our wedding. They made sure to ask all of the right questions beforehand to ensure that we had the best DJ to cater to our needs and what we were looking for. On the day of, our DJ was very professional and did an amazing job keeping the dance floor alive and everyone entertained.

Everything leading up to our big day was amazing! Everyone I spoke to was so kind and helpful! The day of our wedding though the dj was an hour and a half late for set up. He was rude to my decorator when she was asking if he needed anything from us, help or just small talk. When he finally did speak to her it was to ask what we were having for dinner and to say that this was only his side job he didn’t really like this job. I was so angry when I was told about this when getting back from my honeymoon. He also did not try to get the crowd involved or make it a fun time. No one even saw us cut our cake because no one heard him announce it because he did nothing to try to get anyone’s attention!!! My husband had to go up to him at least two different times to tell him to try to play more upbeat music and to get people on the dance floor and he never did. My cousin had to give him a list of about twenty songs and told him to just play those all in a row in order for people to be on the dance floor, but that was after majority of people had left so I was very frustrated. We also got charged for an extra set up fee because he did the music at our ceremony and he ended up using our church equipment and not his. Which was why I had to pay an extra fee because he would have had to set up his equipment in two different locations, but he never had to since he used our church equipment. This dj was the only bad part of our wedding day (besides the rain). I’m very upset that I was given a dj that did not care at all about making my reception a fun time and did not want to be there to entertain and make sure everyone had a good time. I’m sad to be writing such a bad review because every single person I talked to leading up to our wedding day was so friendly, helpful and wanted to make my day perfect! I just wish the dj did too.

DJ connection has the most amazing customer service, easy to work with and a reliable team. However, I was not 100% pleased because the sound wasn’t nearly loud enough and the DJ we had didn’t conduct the crowd very well so there was talking throughout our important dances. It could’ve been our venue that needed better acoustics so keep that in mind with any DJ you book going forward. But other than that they are extremely reasonable and even refunded some of my money since I wasn’t fully satisfied.

DJ Connection literally made my wedding incredible! Our DJ was Sammy and I would not change one single thing about him and how he performed at our wedding! I have had so many of my guests comment on how great he was too! He made it such a fun and stress free day/ night for me and my husband! All throughout the wedding planning DJ Connection stayed in contact with us, they were thoughtful in song selections, and made a very detailed timeline for us. It was so helpful all around. We are so thankful we found DJ Connection.

They stuck to our song list, and made the evening very enjoyable!! Our DJ checked in with us multiple time throughout the night to make sure everything was ok! My favorite part of the night was our secret last dance. All of the guests exited to line up for the sparkler exit, and just my husband and I were left inside. So we danced alone, just us, to the final song. I’ll never forget that! If it weren’t for DJ Connection, I never would have even thought of doing that!

We used DJ Connection for our wedding this past weekend and our DJ was a hit! I’ve had guests from our wedding tell me one of their favorite parts of the night was the “journey circle” lead by our DJ. Our DJ was fun, on time, and professional. I would absolutely recommend DJ Connection to everyone.
