Elite Party DJ was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding! Michael was super helpful and very punctual in requesting anything he needed to make sure our wedding went flawlessly. Every. Single. Detail. They provide a Dropbox where you can drop in any and all photos you’d like displayed during the night!
Their photobooth was super fun, cute, and they provide you with a guest book that’s filled with every single photo taken!
As for the actual DJ portion, James did everything PERFECTLY. Before our wedding, he reached out and requested everything we would need without missing a beat (pun intended), from the songs we wanted to play before the ceremony all the way to the final song of the night.
James was also extremely friendly and approachable, and takes requests throughout the night! He’s extremely punctual and there whenever you need something. He was an amazing Master of Ceremonies, from hyping up the crowd for the Grand Entrance, giving everyone time to make their speeches, was not pushy at all.
He was even able to play some songs that weren’t available on typical digital streaming services! I’m telling you, if you want it played, he can make it happen in a snap.
Overall, Elite Party DJ delivered an absolute masterpiece of a performance with little hassle. Book them if you’re looking for a DJ and photo booth!
Michael provided outstanding services. The photo booth was a total hit! The album provided was great quality and beautifully created.
DJ Michael was amazing on our day. From first meeting him he explained everything clearly and was very professional. We chose his package that included a photo booth and guest book. Our guests loved this option, we got to choose our book design and photo template. It made it easy to know our guest book was already taken care of. The attendant was also very helpful and great. We also got digital copies of every photo taken at the photo booth and GIFs. Attached is a photo booth photo with props and a picture of people enjoying the dance floor. The music was awesome, he did great mixing in what we wanted and what went well. He would check in through the evening and helped MC the night perfectly! We would happily use him again and his prices were awesome especially for everything you are getting. He also does a photo slideshow above his dj set of the photos you provide him through the night. He helped make our day that much more special and memorable! 100/10 recommended!!
Elite party DJ was excellent. Mike provided knowledgeable, professional, and helpful DJ/MC services at our wedding. Mike set up a consultation before we booked and communicated with us up until the wedding. On the day of, Mike arrived early and confirmed all of the details. Mike handled the itinerary during the wedding, which allowed us to spend time with our guest and each other without having to worry. The dance floor and Photo Booth was busy all night and we received dozens of compliments about the reception. I believe this is mostly due to
Mike’s contributions. I will never forget the impact Elite Party DJ made on our wedding.
Michael truly made our wedding an unforgettable experience. From the moment they started playing music, the energy in the room skyrocketed. Their ability to gauge the crowd and play the perfect songs kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. The transitions between songs were seamless, creating a continuous flow of excitement and anticipation.
What stood out the most was his personalized approach. They took the time to understand our musical preferences and incorporated our favorite songs into the playlist flawlessly. The professionalism and dedication they displayed throughout the planning process and on the day of the wedding were exceptional. Their top-notch equipment and lighting added an extra touch of magic to the entire event.
The addition of the phot booth added an extra level of fun and entertainment to our wedding. Our guests could not get enough of it and it left us with countless hilarious and cherished memories captured in photos. It was well worth the money, many times over.
Our guests were raving about the fantastic music and incredible atmosphere created by Michael . Their expertise in event coordination and timing ensured that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the celebration. If you're looking for a DJ who will go above and beyond to make your wedding unforgettable, we highly recommend Elite Party DJ.
Very professional! He arrived on time. We weren’t able to send pictures before the ceremony. He offered to take pictures during the wedding and posted them on the big screen throughout the reception. We were very pleased with his services. Great DJ!
If your looking for someone that's professional and accommodating hire micheal and team. He was able to fit us in on very short time period. He showed up to our venue early for set up and was on time to start. We hired him for the DJ package which included photo booth, dancing clouds, and full DJ set up. Everything was perfect loved that his team watched over the booth and kept it all organized through the event. We had a quinceañera and the teens love his playlist and fast response to requests.
Thank you Micheal and team for such great service.
Michael was a fantastic DJ! He showed up very early to make sure everything was set up on time. He was professional and played exactly what we asked for. We had to change up the time line multiple times and he was very quick to adjust everything for us. He kept me updated on what would be happening all through the night and communicated will all of my vendors. The photo booth was such a hit! Everyone loved it! The photo booth attendant was great he kept the party going in the photo booth for my guests. Michael even snapped a couple of candid photos for us. I cannot recommend Elite Party DJ enough. Thank you for the amazing time!
Hand down, best DJ! Not only does Elite Party offer DJ services but also offers photo booth services. I was able to meet Michael in person at a wedding expo but also via the knot website. From the beginning, communication was clear and quick. He was so easy to work with, very organized and responsive. Leading up to the wedding he answered any questions we asked, sent us links for the photobooth, books etc….
On the day of the wedding showed up 3 hours prior to the ceremony. He had everything ready, with an itinerary in hand and coordinated with the other vendors.
The dance floor was packed the entire time and there was not one bad song! I had my guests texting and messaging me about how good the music was and what a blast they had. People said they hadn’t danced so much in a long time!
If you are looking for a responsible, experienced, entertaining DJ, look no further. Elite Party DJ will not disappoint!
Michael created a wonderful atmosphere for the ceremony. Music sounded great. Sent him our song choices and he played them all. The lights were great not to much for a small venue. He even helped with a line dance to keep the party going!! Thank you Michael it was great working with you
Michael at a late party DJ was amazing very professional on time and had everything handled. He kept our guest engaged in the entire wedding and everyone loved both his DJ service as well as his photo booth service !!!
Michael was awesome! Very responsive and detailed…. Lights and equipment were amazing! Michael had our guests and family Dancing and entertained all night long!! We also ordered the photo booth which our guests loved! And we loved the photo booth album! Thank you Michael for giving us memories for years to come!
Michael and his team helped make our wedding day so amazing & memorable . He really knows how to get the party going & stay going all night . Great mix of genres & songs for every age ! Photo booth that came with our package was amazing too, so cool to see all the pictures taken throughout the night ! Wouldn’t recommend anyone else for your big day!
I can’t say enough about Michael at Elite Party DJ. He absolutely exceeded our expectations. He puts so much effort into every little detail and you can tell he really cares. He has great communication, very easy to work with and was a lot of fun! His setup is great with great equipment. He uses a flat screen that runs a slideshow of pictures which was a great addition for our wedding guest to enjoy. We had a little mixup with the timeline that our events coordinator gave us and Michael was able to take charge and make the rest of the night run very smoothly. He knows exactly what songs draw in the most dancing. I’m pretty sure we had a full dance floor almost all night.
The photo booth was a hit with our guests! It was well worth the extra money and he puts all the pictures in a photo book for you. The quality of the book was better than we could’ve imagined. Plus you get all the pictures in a drop box folder as well to enjoy.
If you are thinking of hiring him for your event DO IT! You will not be disappointed. Thank you again for all your hard work Michael, it was a night we won’t ever forget!
Elite Party DJ was a clear winner to go with , from his amazing DJ setup with beautiful lights to high end quality sound speakers that did not disappoint. Not to mention the fog machine was the perfect tough to bring our bride and groom dance to the next level. Michael was a pleasure working it, and can tell he is always looking for the next best thing to make weddings that much more unforgettable and we got that with the addition of COLD SPARKS!! Next level additions giving us that celebrity status experience !! Amazing amazing amazing !! But wait there’s more , he also has a photo booth with awesome props and has a team to manage that as well!! Thank you Michael and Elite Party DJ !
Michael was amazing to work with! Our wedding date and venue was changed due to covid and he had the flexibility to work with us. Michael was easy to communicate with and he made our wedding perfect! Our venue had a DJ Booth on site that he was still able to set up all of his equipment without issue. His music sounded amazing and everyone had a blast. We could not say enough good things about Michael.
Elite Party DJ was the DJ at our wedding on 10/30/21.. Michael was FANTASTIC. I mean I can't praise him enough! Our wedding was fantastic due to his wonderful music, professionalism, and helpfulness! My wedding was alternative with dark colors and gothic decor. Myself, my husband and our wedding party are heavily tattooed metalheads, and Michael all on his own without any instruction was able to watch and observe what kind of music we were enjoying and begun to play more heavy rock which was AWESOME and had the dance floor packed with everyone screaming along to rock anthems! We had over 3 hours of dance time at our wedding and the dance floor was FILLED until the venue closed. The owner of our venue, who lives on the property came outside her home to frickin dance with us because his music choice was so good! She came out and gave me and my husband a hug, WHICH SHE TOLD US HAS NEVER DONE even though they hold 3 weddings a week at their property! Even the security guards at our venue approached me and my husband to say this was the best music they've heard played there! The owner of the venue told me she has never heard a better DJ and asked who he was so she can recommend him to people! That's how great Micahel was! His DJ booth setup was amazing, his lighting was so cool, his photobooth was super cool and his audio was loud and crystal clear! Just amazing amazing amazing!!!
Where do I start but to say, hiring Michael Gagnier at Elite Party DJ was the best decision I made next to marrying my bride! Michael started our evening by providing on cue music for our ceremony which coincided precisely with our the bridal party walk up the aisle and my bride's entrance. Later he expertly navigated musical choices for our reception, dinner, and marriage celebration. We chose the full package including the photo booth, which was a true hit with our guests, and "the walk on the clouds" which was an absolutely amazing effect. Michael is a true professional, musical connoisseur, and a great guy overall, The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. I strongly recommend you choose Elite Party DJ for your wedding celebration. Thank you Michael!!!!
Michael is awesome!! Played everything we requested and his timeline was great!!! Super friendly. We really couldn't have kept track of the night without him!
What an amazing job Michael did! I have attended quite a few weddings in my life, but rarely have I seen the music, sound, mic setups and lights done with such professionalism. Everything went off without a hitch! Seamless transitions, perfect volume in each setting, and the song selection was perfect! I will recommend this company to everyone I know.
I’ve hired this DJ for three karaoke parties and my wedding. Each time, there was something new about his show. (Laser Lights, audio enhancements, etc.), so he obviously invests in constant improvement. Also, if ever a song was requested that he didn’t have, he would download it on the spot. He also quickly learns his audience and what music they best respond to; it’s always a great party.
Michael created such a fun environment and had a huge selection of popular music! We are so grateful a job well done!
GREAT DJ! He played all the songs we wanted, helped keep us updated beforehand. Had him for our daughter’s wedding and are so happy we did! Great prices will us him again! My guests loved him and he kept us dancing! The photo booth was also a plus! Our guests enjoys all the fun props! The photo book with all the guests pictures from the photo booth helped provide everlasting memories. Elite Party DJ is was choice!
Michael was fantastic and we highly recommend him!!!!!!! He is very professional and organized!! He kept us on schedule while keeping our guest entertained!! We got married this summer and had a last minute venue change and he was so easy going and flexible!!! He brought his photo booth to the wedding and this was a HUGE hit!!! The guest loved it and had so much fun!! My favorite part was I got to keep the pictures the guest took too!! We used this as our guest book!! It is one of our most favorite things from the wedding!! There are not enough stars to rate him, as he was the best decision we made!!! We will definitely be using him again in the future!!!
Elite Party DJ did went above and beyond for our wedding. They tailored everything to fit our needs, venue and requests. We had a blast dancing the night away to our favorite songs and had even more fun singing karaoke which was also provided. I would highly recommend Elite Part DJ for any wedding or special occasion!
My father-in-law actually booked Michael for our wedding and I'm glad he did. Michael did the music for both our ceremony and reception and he was great. He was very available and responsive prior to the wedding. We took a little longer than we should have getting him pictures and our song list and he was still able to work with us with no problems. I loved his setup with the screen showing pictures of us and then later in the night it was showing videos to go with the music. He had a fog machine for our first dance which was amazing! He also had a photo booth set up as well and our guests loved it. We got a photo book that went with the booth, which i wasn't expecting initially but am so glad to have as it makes an excellent keepsake to look back on. Couldn't have been happier with Michael and his service.
We hired Michael for our wedding (he did both the ceremony and the reception) this past weekend, and it was awesome! The smoke machine for the first dance was really romantic and the photo booth was a hit with all the guests. We got our photo album from him the same night which was nice to look through and relive the laughs as we relaxed later at home. We were able to toggle back and forth between dancing and karaoke, and it was so adorable seeing the kids having fun with it. He was set-up and ready to go in plenty of time and the equipment looked and sounded great. Everyone has been commenting on how lovely the ceremony and reception was and complimented us on our Officiant/DJ choice. I would definitely recommend him for your event.
