Elite Entertainment DJ'd our wedding on 9/22, and they did a rad job! (I will explain the lack of a fifth star.)
We originally met with Turner. From the moment we arrived and disc...ussed our wedding, our needs, our music tastes, etc., we knew EE was going to be the DJ company for us. We felt heard, like our wedding mattered to them, and they had the tools to make it happen. We booked them, including Turner himself to be our DJ!
Turner was amazing! He was responsive, matched our energy, and even put together a special edit of two songs for my bridal entrance. A+! Unfortunately, due to *totally* understandable medical reasons, Turner had to drop out of doing our wedding. We then met with Kevin, who took over for Turner (one of the perks of booking a company, there's backup!)
The day-of went mostly well. The ceremony was perfect! Kevin is an exceptional MC, handling introductions and the flow of the entire evening with wonderful tone and poise! The only thing we felt could have gone better was his reading of the room/energy during the reception and the playing of the songs we'd given him.
Whenever he played the fast songs we'd listed, people were on the floor and digging it. When he played ones not on our list (including the wrong version of "You Spin Me Round," a song I was looking forward to) you could feel the energy drop.
Additionally, we had to request that he play our slow songs at all; after our first dance (performed live by two of my family members, and a huge hit!) there were literally no slow songs until we asked to hear them, and even then, there were two back-to-back, not spread out. We didn't hear a lot of what we'd put on the list for him to play; it felt like he'd maybe forgotten to bring the list with him? Or just disregarded our choices? Not sure.
However, despite these small qualms, I had a BLAST at my wedding and reception (and so I hear did the guests, though would they honestly tell me if they didn't? I don't know), so in the end, it worked out. But because it's literally the DJ's job to read the room and not have the bride and groom have to request he plays the songs the couple already gave him to play, it's four stars rather than five.
