Hiring DJ Marek was hands down the BEST decision we made for our wedding! From the first conversation, he took the time to understand our style, preferences, and vision for the day. He didn’t just play music, he created the most unforgettable experience for us and our guests. The dance floor was packed all night!
Marek has an incredible ability to read the crowd and play the perfect mix of songs that got everyone moving; from our grandparents to our college friends. He coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors, kept the timeline on track, and his emceeing was spot-on, enthusiastic but never over the top.
We can’t say enough good things about Marek, he made our wedding a night we’ll never forget, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. If you want an amazing DJ who truly cares about making your day perfect, look no further than DJ Marek!

Dj Marek was outstanding!! We had a destination wedding in the black hills, and he helped everything go so smoothly! He went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. We aren't much of a dancing crew and he was able to get people on the dance floor all night! It was a great time.

DJ Marek is the absolute best! We organized our wedding in a few months and Marek relieved a lot of stress by assuring us we wouldn’t have to worry about anything on our big day because he would have taken care of everything. He made sure everything ran smoothly. He is so good at what he does and especially entertaining all the guests! He managed to have everybody out on the dance floor the entire night.

I would absolutely recommend DJ Marek to people. He worked with our wedding date possibly having to be moved a few days and us not knowing until last minute. We appreciated that he valued and understood where we were coming from. We also gave him a list of things that we didn't want to do, what we specifically wanted to do, and a multitude of other things. We threw a lot of last minute things in and he was always on top of doing it. He was easy to work with, understanding, and professional. He kept the party alive and was able to get everyone on the dance floor. If we were to ever need another DJ, we would hire him again. I highly recommend him!

You will have the best, if you have DJ Marek for your wedding day. His expertise shined from the start of our outdoor wedding through our reception and dinner and ended with the best dance party.
Marek has the skill and experience that made our day run so smoothly. And no one keeps a crowd on the dance floor like he does. We couldn’t have been happier with the service he provided.
A huge tip, book the photo booth!! This was a huge hit for the wedding party and all of our guests. These fun photos will be cherished forever.
Thank you for your awesome service Marek, you’re truly the best in the game!!

DJ Marek kept the crowd at our wedding reception and dance partying til the very end. He was so professional and organized with the whole day! He met with us initially to get to know us and then kept in contact frequently to make sure plans were on target. He provided music at the ceremony as well as videoing the whole thing as a keepsake. One thing we would definitely recommend is the digital photo booth - so so much fun and so many great pictures! Also, the uplighting really transforms the space into a party vibe! He had great crowd interaction for all ages! He kept everyone having fun and out on the dance floor! Highly recommend!

Marek was amazing! walked us through everything we needed to know, and was willing to make changes on the fly to make the ceremony and reception great. Also, I don't think there was a time all night that the dance floor was empty. 10/10 recommend for your big day!!!

I say this all the time, but Marek is the absolute BEST DJ there is in the area. Growing up in the bridal business like I did I have a lot of high expectations for vendors and Marek hits the target every time. He is absolutely amazing! He gets people involved in the party and really gets everyone dancing and having a good time. I could not recommend him enough. He also has amazing light displays which are an absolute MUST for any occasion!

We HIGHLY recommend Marek for any DJ services needed. He just did our wedding a couple weeks ago and it was everything we expected AND MORE! He was very helpful through out the whole planning process, answered any questions we had and made sure people were out on the dance floor all night. We will definitely be using him again in the future for any birthday parties, anniversary parties, etc.

HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Marek! He was so easy to work with, very responsive, and made the process of planning our wedding night easy. There was not a moment that the dance floor was empty and all our guests RAVED at how much fun they had. During the dance, Marek gave me a bag of light up sticks to hand out to the guests and that took the energy to another level! It was just all around a wonderful experience and I promise you won't regret your decision of having him as your DJ.

Marek is an awesome DJ! He kept the dance floor alive the entire wedding. He even had props that our guests could use while dancing, such as inflatable air guitars and microphones. His lighting effects added to the amazing experience! Marek knows how to make all the guests feel included and have a good time. We still get compliments about how fun our wedding was. If you're looking for a DJ to host your event, you cannot go wrong with Marek!

Marek was the absolute best to work with!! He made our planning so simple and stress free right from the start! He brought an energy to our ceremony and reception that made it absolutely perfect and one we will never forget. He ensured we had all the details covered...some that we never would have thought about until it was too late. He went above and beyond all of our expectations and gave us a day that we will forever cherish and never forget!

Marek is literally the best ever!!!! He was such a pleasure to meet! His personality is charming & he makes you feel so comfortable!! We were pretty nervous on our big day & he took the time to try to calm our nerves! He works so well with all the local vendors, he was even assisting the venue with clean up! He had all our guests up dancing & having the time of their lives!!! We enjoyed it so much that even though we planned on leaving the reception earlier than everyone, we were the last ones to leave!!!

I believe there is no better DJ for a wedding in the state of SD. He kept our party dancing, the kids happy, and everyone informed with the reception changes we had. He sent out a thorough questionnaire and stuck to it during the event. Everything about him was somehow both professional and fun. Reasonably priced too.

Marek was awesome! He did such an amazing job with the keeping the audience engaged and his music selection was perfect! There was something for everyone! He did the music for the ceremony as well in 34 degree weather and blowing winds! He toughed it out through the whole thing and the sound quality was still perfect! During the reception he always checked in with Zach and I to make sure things were going how we envisioned. He kept the fun going until the last few moments, we had a blast! We would recommend him to anyone! Such a great guy!!

Marek did such an amazing job for our wedding!!! He did the music for our ceremony and the reception. His work is so streamline and extremely impressive. Our guests had the best time ever and keep saying how amazing our DJ was and I completely agree! He was so helpful throughout the entire process....he told us how the day was going to go beforehand and just keep the party going. His voice is one that grabs peoples attention and keeps people interested. My husband and I were extremely impressed and everything was so worry free when we had Marek on our vendor team!! Thanks Marek!!! I'll recommend you a million times over!! -The Vedsteds

Marek was the best dj I could have ever imagined! My guests were extremely impressed with how friendly and helpful he was the entire night. He helped pick up plates after dinner, got everybody dancing, and kept the whole reception fun and quick moving. He also had every song and was able to smoothly loop my ceremony music when the wedding party song finished too early.

Marek was absolutely amazing. By far the MVP of my wedding vendors. Not only did he put on a great party and got the grandparents dancing but went way above and beyond his job description. He was taking care of things that the facility staff were slacking on. He helped find utinsels for us to cut the cake, he was the one pouring us champaign at the head table and clearing our dishes. That might say a lot about the staff working at our wedding but also speaks volumes about him and his dedication to making your day the best ever. He was a little more expensive and I had a bit of trouble getting a hold of him once in a while but he was definitely the best DJ I could have chosen. People still tell me what a blast our wedding dance was.

Our DJ cancelled 2 weeks before our wedding, we called all of the other djs in the phone book and he was the only one who called us back! He had a cancellation and was able to fit us in. He was a great dj, everyone loved him at the reception and he worked with us to fit into our budget!
