DJ Connection

o help move the night along and keep the dance floor going without being too "extra." Our DJ, Brandon, was perfect. He was very professional, had the exact energy level and announcement style we were looking for, played the songs that fit our and our guests' preferences, accommodated requests that he received, and as a result, our dance floor was full all night.

ther venue. They were scheduled to be at the venue at 3 for a 5:00 wedding and we got a substitute DJ at 8:00. Unfortunately for us that meant no music for the ceremony, the cocktail hour and dinner.

tos. The wedding ceremony music went just as I had hoped and he quickly switched over to the reception. He followed our timeline and checked in with us a couple of times to make sure we were ready to move on to the next thing. As the night went on he was able to keep everyone out on the dance floor which is what I was really wanting. His music was great and I had multiple guests tell me how nice he was. I think a DJ can make or break a wedding and DJ Collin definitely made it!

to play, and didn't play all the songs we requested, a lot of which were very special between the bride and groom. His energy was so low, that a ton of people missed the bouquet toss because they straight up couldn't hear him. It seemed like he was just going down a checklist of what to do and didn't get creative with it at all. Which at that point, we could've just had a playlist. Our guests and I made it a fun time, but the DJ definitely didn't help.

te the music myself. My first conversation with the team at DJ Connection completely changed that, though. Everyone I talked to through the booking and planning process was incredibly helpful and they made the process fun. They did a great job making sure they understood what kind of reception I wanted, what kind of atmosphere I wanted to create, and what was most important to me. The planning website made it simple to add in all of my must-haves and timeline details. I especially loved that I could "request" songs that weren't already in their library and even blacklist songs that I did not want played. The final planning calls the week of the wedding went a long way toward helping me finalize last minute details and tie up any loose ends with the overall timeline reception. It also helped me ensure DJ Connection had all of the event details and contact information, as well as the right picture about how we wanted the event to go. Colin, our DJ, did an amazing job transitioning through the timeline, fielding song requests from guests, and keeping the energy up. The main thing we wanted from our reception was for everyone to dance and have a lot of fun and they certainly did! We received a ton of compliments about how great the music was and how much fun our DJ seemed to be having.

all in a backup DJ. That DJ was very respectful and listened to all of our wants but he was a lot more energetic than our original request. He kept the dance floor full almost all night, so it turned out well, but we still would have liked a little more slow music and oldies. Overall, I would recommend using DJ Connections.

timeline for our entrance song timing from details given on our final phone call. He did his best and was super easy to work with but couldn't tell how loud the music was at one point (most people went outside) my father-in-law spoke with him and he adjusted immediately. I understand Covid may have played a part and I'm grateful to have had a DJ overall! But walking in and immediately having to reiterate details while trying to finish our pictures added some stress. Overall a good service!

al discount! I believe our DJ’s name was Daniel, and he definitely delivered. He played all our request and kept our party going all night

songs. Our DJ, Daniel, was SO MUCH FUN. You could tell that he was having just as much fun, if not more, than the guests, and he did an awesome job with his balance of music. He was also very professional and accommodating. Overall, we highly recommend DJ Connection for your next event!

ight we were supposed to do our photo trick but we decided to let our photographer go since things were starting to slow down. He didn't miss a beat and went to the next. He was also able to accommodate a surprise from one of our guests. She is an amazing singer and dedicated a song to us. It was something we will never forget. But back to his flexibility, we were wrapping up the night, not many people left and we had told the DJ before we didn't want much country. But my friends that were left requested a few country songs, and he could sense that's where the night was going and went with it.

t me know two weeks before but they didn’t. DJ Nate did a fine job with the ceremony music. He played what we requested with no issues. Once we got to the reception I was a bit disappointed because I worked really hard at putting together a list of songs for dinner and a must play list for the reception. He didn’t play any of the songs I put together for the dinner portion. He played a completely different genre which didn’t end up being a big deal just a bit annoying. The reception started out strong but he would play a good song and then a bit of a vibe killer next. I had to have a few bridesmaids tell him that this wasn’t what the bride wanted. We had to tell him basically the must play songs again. Had I known I would need to do that I would have printed off the list. It ended up fine and fun once we had a chat with him. He definitely didn’t stick to our timeline so make sure you have a day of coordinator or you’re aware of the time. Would recommend but proceed with caution.

t us to pay them. We tried to speak to the DJ that was supposed to be at our wedding but never got the call. Then upon canceling them for our wedding, they decided to keep our deposit of $300 when not doing any of the work they said they would. There is a lot of better choices to go with for a wedding. We got very lucky and talked with Mike King to our surprise he was available for our wedding. He went above and beyond at our wedding and did so much more than what was expected of him. To all other couples looking for a dj. Please be careful if you chose DJ Connections. Our wedding was on Saturday November the 13 2021.

th prior and everyone was super helpful. They have a website that you can organize all of your special songs, songs you want played, and do not play. They set up your entire timeline and Kyle checked in with us through out the night to keep us on track. He did a great job and recommend him if you can!

mic when I needed it. We will be using them for future events!!

wedding. Our DJ flopped, was unprofessional, and interrupted me continuously throughout the night to get reassurance that he was doing okay. He was the only vendor I had continuous issues with throughout the day. He showed up with 2 different timelines and was making jokes to other vendors about how unprepared he was. He didn't play the right music and told me it was because he didn't know what EDM was and only looked it up a few hours before the event started. We had even given him a list of songs we wanted him to play but he didn't play those. He said we had to be on the dance floor before he would play any requested songs. When we told him to go ahead and play them, he wouldn't. He was socially awkward and brought the energy level of the party waaaaaay down. He couldn't keep people on the dance floor (even though no other wedding I've been to with the same groups of people ever had that problem, we all love to dance). He also seemed to panic during the night and started accepting guest's song requests even though we had said we didn't want him to do that. The office who you work with before your wedding day was unorganized and they mismanaged our requests. They didn't tell us who our DJ was until the day before the wedding and we aren't able to meet the DJ until they show up at our wedding. So many day of issues could've been avoided if the DJ would've been on the final call outlining all the details a week before the wedding. They overcharged us and refused to refund us what they owed unless we agreed to sign a non-disparagement agreement which would not allow us to post any negative reviews online. They said this was standard practice, so BEWARE!! THEY ARE FORCING CUSTOMERS TO TAKE DOWN BAD REVIEWS. We had already posted a review because we were so upset with their performance at our wedding. They told us we wouldn't get any money unless we changed our review. DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY!! They are bullying and blackmailing people to keep bad reviews off. I had a horrible experience dealing with them during and after the wedding. This company is unethical and should not be trusted with your special day. We decided to forgo the money that this company owes us in order to be able to warn people about how terrible they are. I hope to save some other brides all the troubles I went through. DO NOT HIRE THEM!

different but he got them! He keep the dance floor fun and even got out and danced along with us! A few of my friends even got his business card he was that good. Overall he helped make the night really something special.

was very helpful as well and the DJ helped me stick to the timeline as I was overwhelmed by guests and did not have a watch/phone on me to know what time it was! The DJ did a great job at reading the room and choosing what to play next and guests loved giving him requests! Could not have asked for anything better!!

meeting the week before the big day to run through every detail to make sure it was what we wanted. Everything went perfectly the day of. DJ Kyle checked in with me throughout the day to make sure everything was perfect, and he was very flexible about any last minute changes. 10/10 would recommend!

lo. There was a misunderstanding with the ceremony music, and a few of my guests were not afraid to share feedback. Our DJ kept smiling and made adjustments to ensure we were happy! We really apppreciate the service!

d played perfect music all night long!

up beat and just all around awesome!

cktail hour. My mom has sensitive hearing and Mark was very kind and quickly turned down the music when we asked him. There was a slight problem with the wireless microphone when we started doing the speeches but Mark was able to give our best man a substitute microphone while he very quickly fixed the wireless one. Mark also kept his mask on the whole, even when he was over 6 feet away from others.

ll experience. They did not disappoint! We highly recommend DJ Connection.

m the booking everything was so smooth. No ridiculous hoops or unnecessary emails/questions. When our DJ got on site he went right to work. I had emailed our layout and he had copies printed off, went right to set up, spoke with our officiant and was very organized. He led our reception and dinner with no questions asked. Our guest knew what was going on and easily followed our instructions. Made sure we were happy and let us know to let him know of any changes. Honestly our dance was my favorite part. I gave him control, told him we were going to have a party/dancing group and told him to feel the crowd. Do what you think is best. He nailed it. Our guests had a blast, as did we.

which I can understand, but you’re sending someone to our event where we’re having literally all our closest friends and family, so safety is a concern. I wanted to make sure that they were aware of what our venue would require of them to meet the safety of that day. Instead, I was telling some service rep out of town and hoping they passed on the right information. It also felt more like they just didn’t know who would be our DJ for sure. Overall, if you don’t mind working with someone other than your DJ, then I’d recommend DJ Connection.

ficiently and made all necessary announcements.

d the company but not that specific DJ. (I had requested Brandon but was apparently not available for our event)

hat shouldn’t have happened given the timeline that is supplied to the DJ and the customer with the songs listed very easily for each event. Our DJ did not transition to new songs when the crowd got bored of a song. We had several comments from guests that our DJ just wasn’t that great, which was disappointing. Full Story: The sales team and customer service team are great in the terms they really know how to sell their product and make it sound way more incredible than it actually is. I met them at a Bridal Expo last year and they made everything sound so great. We booked them and then didn’t hear back until the week of the wedding (which was fine with me we had a lot going on). You only speak to the customer service team and not your actual DJ, which I think is a very flawed aspect to the company. They have an online portal where you can choose the songs you want played for all events throughout the day and also pick the songs you want played and don’t want played during the reception. The week of my wedding a friend told me that her sister had DJ Connections at her wedding the previous weekend and they did an awful job. Just to name a few he was dressed in cut off jeans and a cut off shirt all night, microphones didn’t work for the ceremony or reception, didn’t move to another area of the venue when asked to move (and they had already paid extra to have him do this), and had left at 11:30 when they paid him to stay until 1. I was terrified of what my experience was going to be like, but it was the week of my wedding and I couldn’t do much about it at that point. Our DJ showed up on time in leisure wear, but did end up changing into something more appropriate for the actual event. He set up a speaker outside for the ceremony and the music and microphones worked out great. During the reception we had picked out a song for our bridal party to walk out to and a different song for me and my husband to walk out to. He ended up playing our song for the entire bridal party, which really ruined the vibe when they had practiced to the other song. He also mixed up the song we had picked out for the Cake Cutting and the Anniversary Dance, which was annoying because we had picked a slow song for the anniversary dance and a more up beat song for the cake cutting, which lead to an awkward anniversary dance. So he messed up three songs that were very easy to read on the timeline that we had created with the customer service team at DJ Connection. He also wasn’t good about reading the room on when it was time to transition to a new song, which sucked because our guests got bored. Overall not a terrible experience, but also not an amazing one. It definitely could have been worse, but it could have been so much better.

ere punctual, had all the necessary equipment and did great! The only downfall is you don't meet your actual DJ until you show up at the wedding/reception, so you're not 100% sure what you're going to get. I think our DJ could have had a little more energy but not the end of the world. Things were a little weird because of all this COVID stuff. All in all, the DJ communicated with me well throughout the night, making sure of the timeline and what songs I would be ok or not ok with playing. DJ was professional as well and I got to hear many of my favorite songs! I would definitely recommend this company!

to plan song by song what we wanted to play and even put a "do not play" list of songs we didnt want to hear. We had no trouble at all and they read the room on what songs to play when there were gaps. Great job acting as the emcee as well and keeping the evening going on track. Thank you for being a part of our special day!

th everything going on with Covid 19 plans and timelines change of the reception.

I’d hoped.

the cake, throw the garter, throw the bouquet, etc). They had great communication prior and during, making sure everything was the way we wanted it. They were professional, prompt on time, and just really made a big difference in the overall feel of the reception. We highly recommend them !

though we can only have 10 or less people at a wedding, since they can play at the wedding reception, they will not return our deposit. They will let you reschedule, but if you had to cancel the whole event, you are out of luck. The heartbreaking fact is that many plans (wedding, graduation, etc) and lives have drastically changed. With all the great hearts out there (e.g., airlines waiving cancellation fees, hotels waiving cancellation fees, free food and daycare of our front line workers, etc.), I'm sorry we wasted our time and money with this company.

n the dance floor and made sure that we were happy and comfortable with everything. We are so impressed by this company and will be recommending them to everyone!

continues to talk about the food and how fun the dance floor and playlist was!

y respectful, energetic and I have no complaints. We got compliments about our DJ and asked where we found him. Another important thing is the volume was just right so you didn’t feel like you were yelling trying to talk to guests. I was extremely pleased with DJ Connection.

ve and then matching us with a DJ who could fit that, they took the work and uncertainty out of the process of us interviewing different DJs looking for one with the right vibe. It was so nice not having to go through the process of interviewing a bunch of DJs! I loved the online platform they set us up with the to select our "must play" and our "do not play" songs. I requested an oldie Italian song for the father/daughter dance, and DJ Connection was able to obtain the track with no problems. Ray was our DJ, and he did a phenomenal job. Guests told us, "your DJ is awesome!" He checked in with us the appropriate number of times throughout the night and kept everything on track with the timeline we had set up for the reception. He got to know our preferences so well that in the later part of the reception, he came up to me and asked if I could quickly approve a couple songs the guests requested because he was on the fence if I would like them. He did such a great job! We also did an anniversary dance during the reception that he executed flawlessly (we've all been to those weddings where it's either rushed or drawn out too long). I recommend DJ Connection to all my friends looking for a wedding DJ. They are professional, competent, and can keep the dance floor going at exactly the vibe you always wanted.

would be good, the DJ only played those songs and wouldn’t allow guests to request songs to be played even though I asked beforehand if guests were able to. Additionally, the DJ played songs completely through to the end instead of changing the song once it started to die down. It would have been the equivalent to somebody just playing music on an iPhone. Also, our DJ was not loud enough and did not direct the crowd how we had told them we wanted. The DJ is a huge part of the reception and I would not use this company again. I do not recommend.

ssed they let him use their equipment and it worked out perfectly. Our timeline throughout the night shifted a bit, and the DJ worked with the photographer to make adjustments and let us know where we needed to be throughout the evening. The only negative was that we had table numbers we wanted called to be dismissed for dinner, instead it was announced immediate family and the bridal party should go first, followed by guests. People waited in line for food quite awhile since tables were not dismissed individually, but it was not that big of a deal to us. Overall I would highly recommend working with DJ connection, they were great and affordable!

to having family members sing to other reception events was done beautifully by our DJ. The process with DJ Connection was super easy and the communication was phenomenal. We had our Top 40 that we wanted to be played at our wedding and our DJ did a great job trying to stick to those songs. We got a great deal with DJ Connection after attending a Bridal Expo- which helped with pricing. However, the pricing is so affordable for the quality of service you receive. 10/10 recommend this company for any wedding or event! Thank you, Isaac and DJ Connection of Kansas City!

with things she didn't have to. She helped me cut up the slices of the cake and was constantly asking if there was something she could do to help. She was a far better DJ than the one that was hired for my friends wedding last year. Jessie was engaging with the guests and always had a smile on her face. She helped make my day perfect!

hrough the entire process all the way to the week before the wedding, they were so easy to work with!! The day of the reception went exactly as planned!! The music and the special dances were all considered in the schedule...the dance floor was packed the entire night!! THANK YOU for making the night amazing!!!

what we liked. There wasn’t a song played that we didn’t like. She was so impressive that guests from the neighboring restaurant asked for her information. Throughout the process everyone we talked to or interacted with was friendly. The online system is great to make sure all the songs you want played are played. We would highly recommend DJ connection. I don’t know when we would ever need a DJ again, but would definitely use them again should the need arise.

ext. Everyone had a BLAST. DJ Ray periodically checked in with us to make sure he was doing exactly what we wanted. He checked in with us on schedule we had laid out and even helped us get a chance to eat without guests bothering us. I couldn't have asked for more and everyone has said the DJ was great and they had such a good time! I definitely recommend them, DJ Connection was PERFECT!

everything I needed to on time but he was so patient and communicated with me so well that everything turned out so perfectly. The music was so much fun and exactly what we wanted and he knew how to read the crowd and get people to enjoy themselves! DJ Connection provided us with everything we wanted and we highly recommend them! The whole staff is outgoing and can definitely help suggest music or timeline related things you're unsure about. They are experienced and knowledgeable and fun!!

a hitch, he played beautiful dinner music, and the dance party was amazing. DJ Connection lets you customize the music you want to hear in their online portal so you don't have to worry about surprise line dances if that's not your thing. I didn't give five stars only because DJ Connection has a schedule for communications and it was tough to get on the phone with them when I wanted to talk sooner their normal time line.

to make your own playlist or let them handle things and you tell them what not to play. We both love music and spent a lot of time on our playlist, so we were ecstatic that it was able to be used for our big day. A national company, but has a local feel!

ything through out the night. They made planning super easy and super fun! Each phone call was very professional yet energetic. I highly recommend using DJ connections for your wedding, without a doubt, you will not regret it!! Thank you DJ connections for taking care of me, my wedding party, and all of our guests!!

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.

-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!

nd 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.

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!

WAY!!! 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.

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!

g 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! 😊

y 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!

layed and songs you did not want played. I would highly recommend DJ Connection!
