Entertainment Express

ely transformed the already beautiful venue at Padua Hills, the music kept everyone on the dance floor, and the MC kept the entire evening flowing seamlessly. We didn’t have to worry about a single detail because they had everything covered. They helped make the night so much fun! Their organization skills and special effects are truly top notch! We couldn’t be happier them! Highly recommend!

and Bree for email correspondence. Bree was professional and speedy with her responses- so much so that I missed her response a couple times before realizing she'd responded quickly. She kept our file updated and worked with us to make adjustments and see what requests could be accommodated (basically all of them). Evan was personable and made it so easy to get ready for the wedding. At our first meeting when we booked, EE provided a little "workbook" (a total of maybe 15 pages) for us to fill out in preparation for the wedding, but promised that they would help us finish out whatever we hadn't been able to complete. It was questions on important family and friends, who was in our wedding party, music preferences, and other things that they wanted to know in order to make our wedding run smoother. We finished about half of the packet before our official pre-planning meeting (~3mo before date), and then finished up the packet with Evan in person. He was so helpful giving us ideas for music and ambiance and pointing out things that other couples typically had or overall trends and then encouraged us to think about our preferences and style and implement as we liked. Overall, he helped customize little moments for our day that meant a lot to us while still making sure that our wedding would run smoothly. Our day of MC worked so well in conjunction with Padua's coordinator to keep the entire event running smoothly! They added little touches of personality to keep our guests entertained and having fun, but overall kept the entire event within our style. We couldn't be happier to have worked with a service that was so experienced and professional. It made planning the entire event so easy and seamless. EE also provided a few extra games and touches for a slight upcharge from the cheapest package, which included specialty lighting, a handful of games like giant connect four and cornhole, and a set of LOVE letters. Our guests loved those touches, especially during our cocktail hour, and most of our guests took photos with the LOVE sign, so I feel they were well worth it!

incredible. There was no need for a wedding planner or coordinator. They did such a fantastic job being in charge of the timeline and making sure there were smooth transitions and also letting all of our guests know what was going on at all times and where to be. We attended a few bridal shows at Padua Hills Theatre and got to meet and interact with Brett and Evan on multiple occasions and they are just such a delight to be around. Brett was our MC and he was just the absolute BEST!!! Regardless of if we booked our wedding at Padua or not, we would have absolutely booked with Entertainment Express and I would again and again for any other events. I wish we could get married every weekend to spend time with them! We even had such a great time at our planning meeting with Evan and he was so helpful with the song picking process. I thought it was going to be overwhelming and difficult but it really wasn’t. We had a wonderful time and laughed and cried. If I could give them 100 stars I would!!! Thank you Brett, Evan, Bree and the rest of your team for being so amazing and making our day the most magical day of our lives!!!!

eally no need for a wedding planner (unless you need a wedding planner for creating invitations, calling vendors, etc). Our wedding went so smoothly without a single hiccup. The bridal party knew exactly what to do with their help. They were extremely helpful with song selections whenever we got stuck and provided us with great advice to make sure the wedding went as smoothly and timely as possible. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding coordinator/DJ team!

wlessly. The MC was incredibly well organized, ensuring that the transitions from the ceremony to the cocktail hour, dinner, and beyond went smoothly and in line with our timeline. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was just how we envisioned it. After dinner, the MC hosted a couple of games—musical chairs and a scavenger hunt—that were a huge hit. We’ve heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests about how much fun they had. Then when the dance floor opened The DJ was phenomenal! The music selection was spot-on, and the blending of songs kept the dance floor absolutely packed for the entire night. Our guests couldn't stop dancing! We couldn't be happier with the service they provided and highly recommend Entertainment Express to anyone looking for a seamless, fun, and memorable wedding experience!

n of show, flow, backup plans, and helping us to think outside the box. More important, as a same-sex couple, they were very conscientious of all formalities and non-gender specific paperwork and planning. They truly made our night magical, embraced us and our guests, and made the planning process a bonus fond memory of our wedding. Thank you to Brett, Evan, Bree, and their team, I cannot rave enough about them all. Cheers!

!

ork with! During our planning meeting, I didn't know when songs should start or end, or what the timeline would look like. They made both my husband and me feel comfortable and just handled everything! We laughed throughout the whole meeting. The wedding day was amazing. They knew how to read the room, and the lighting, sound system, etc. were fantastic! My husband was amazed when they showed us a demo! For all couples out there, make sure to get the bubbles! I cannot thank them enough!

and amazing at what they do. The only part I was bummed about was some songs being cut off short to transition into the next one, but it makes sense to make room for as many songs as possible.

hoped for on the actual day of our wedding! We had so many moving parts and surprises (including my sister’s proposal!), and they hit it out of the park. Our guests continued to express how much fun they had for weeks—it was literally the best day. Their experience and equipment combined makes them stand out from the rest. One guest even told us that they felt they were at a Vegas nightclub during the late night open dancing! Entertainment Express is the real deal. We love them!!

aff we immediately loved them! They were all so kind and good to us as if we were already long time friends! Everyone made the process very comfortable and their advice definitely helped us make decisions that really reflected our vision for our wedding! Entertainment Express will be our first go to if we were to host a event again! We recommended them to all of our family and friends!

s happy and entertained. Scott kept the party going as our DJ and played all the songs we had on our requests list, which made me want to dance the rest of the night! This night was 14 months in the making. They guided us before and during the wedding. We had no idea how much work would be involved. Evan made it easy with a little bit of homework to help us pick the songs we wanted for all the memorable moments of the night. We definitely recommend Entertainment Express for any event especially for weddings!

a deposit at Padua hills Brett, Evan & Ryan answered all our questions, gave quick demos on lighting and went above and beyond for my husband and I. On the actual wedding day, they made sure we sticking to our schedule without feeling rushed. We had so much fun and received endless compliments on both the lighting and the lounge/dance club atmosphere EE created in the ballroom. We are so grateful for the entire EE team! Thank you for making our day our so wonderful!

ng the ceremony, speeches, and song- to the dancing and music. We had some specific plans such as a family choreographed entrance, to my daughter singing our dance song. The team made sure every detail was planned. Being that 2/3 of our guests were 55 and older they knew how to adjust the music and mood intuitively. Entertainment Express knows exactly what they are doing. My husband works in AV and the sound system at the Padua Hills venue is top notch. Entertainment Express gifted us their services through Wish Upon A Wedding. What made it more special was that I felt they sincerely cared for us. My family will always have this night to reflect upon. We hope that others get to enjoy and experience your professionalism and talent.

ot but it makes the whole wedding super easy. You can go down the list and mark things you want to do (that you might not have even thought of) and cross out what you dont. They provide lists of music ideas, song categories for each event like cake cutting, first dances, boquet tosses, EVERYTHING! They have weddings down to a science and it takes a lot of pressure off of you because they handle everything perfectly! Then they give you a timeline they organize down to the minute and they keep the wedding perfectly on track! Theyre amazing at their jobs but also amazing people: they're very professional and friendly! I would 10/10 reccomend them everytime!

a lot of stress, both in the planning stages as well as on the special day. The day of the wedding, everything went off without a hitch and the guests all had an amazing time! We received countless compliments on how great everything was, and that couldn’t have happened without Entertainment Express. Special shout out to Evan who worked with us at every step AND was the perfect MC for the evening. He kept the evening flowing, made sure my wife and I were taken care of, provided lots of laughs, and helped set the perfect mood all night. Can’t thank everyone at EE enough for everything!

at time! We literally didn’t worry about a thing the whole night because they guided us through everything! They are so professional, thorough, and trustworthy. Would 100% recommend!

ding day, and they are true professionals who have seen it all. They are experts in running weddings! We met with them a few times prior to our wedding for long meetings, going over everything above and beyond just song choices. They mapped out a minute by minute schedule for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception so we didn't have to keep track of a thing. They have clearly seen it all because they also asked for very specific details like who is giving toasts and when, who's not allowed to give toasts, are there any people at the wedding who should avoid other people at the wedding, etc- clearly they have extensive experience in wedding drama and they are pros at making things to smoothly! We are so incredibly grateful to them. They are very professional and personable, fun to work with, and really helped guide us through the whole process. They've done this thousands of times and they know the ropes! We had an AMAZING wedding and they really made the day go by without any issues! Highly recommend!!

oint with everything. They were patient with our anxieties and some of the indecisiveness that comes with being the bride and groom. They made sure the day ran smoothly, brought us champagne, danced with us, made sure my husband and I ate on the day, protected us from problematic family members, and more. There is literally nothing they don't do. Thank you so much EE!

Totally recommend them

lan. This allowed both the groom and I to actually enjoy the reception without having to worry about anything. Entertainment Express treated us like family and offered only the best quality of service. Great music and entertaining personalities, I highly recommend booking them for your next major event. They really take your personal preferences and interests into account to make your event a truly enjoyable and memorable one.

to throw an amazing party. Evan was an amazing MC, and took the most patience with my insane family and wedding party. We had such an incredible time. We could not recommend their services more.

oment was looking up at the DJ booth and seeing the team dancing to the music themselves! They kept the energy up and the MC made the entire experience seamless.

hey were all so friendly and helpful and really helped us bring our vision to life. They really focus on details that make or break a wedding, and it made a huge difference in helping our wedding run smoothly. Brett was our MC and he was INCREDIBLE! He allowed us to keep to a schedule without it feeling forced or rushed. He reassured us throughout the night that things were going great, and all of our guests thought he was awesome. The music was just what we wanted and we can't thank Entertainment Express for all the hard work they put in! Thank you to Brett, Evan, and the rest of the team at Entertainment Express! :)

the time of our lives. We worked closely with Brett and he always made us feel heard and excited about our big day.

r and I are big party-ers (I mean, we literally met at a club dancing) and so are our friends who love to dance and love good music. It was important to us to throw a huge party for our wedding, and we've been to over 40 weddings at this point where there were MANY DJs that were awful and ruined the vibe of the dancing components to the wedding. As such, we had a high bar, and had natural worries (because we hadn't heard samples of Entertainment Express' DJing sets or anything). However, Entertainment Express reassured us that they could really understand what we wanted, and day of, they absolutely DELIVERED. Firstly, when we visited the Padua Theatre venue where they are located, it was gorgeous and we felt such good vibes. But what really sold us on booking with this venue was the incredible DEMO that Evan and Brett gave us when we toured. Yes, we got a DEMO of how the lighting, sound system, and experience would be and WE WERE GAGGED. It was mind-blowing because it really helped us get a taste of what we were going to get. We had tons of questions, gave them our vision of having a club-like party feel, and were more than satisfied with their reassurances and what we saw -- so we booked! After that, it was a breeze working with the team. They gave us homework to really understand the timeline we wanted, the music preferences we had, and the must-have songs we needed at our wedding. Our wedding day was perfect. Seamless, smooth transitions, and exactly the music we wanted to get all our guests dancing (all things we've seen go wrong at OTHER weddings). Thankfully, Entertainment Express knows the ins and outs of throwing a well-organized and LIT party, and they do it with such care and professionalism. There was even a point where my partner and I were get overwhelmed with our guests, but Evan pulled us away to make sure we had a chance to eat! So thankful for the way they helped us make our day SO memorable.

we walked down the aisle, to making sure we had all the right set up for the ceremony, reception, and dancing. Thank you for making our big day special!

to let you know what’s next. They prioritize you on your day. Evan from Entertainment Express even exchanged my heels for my slippers for me so I could keep going. The details they are able to provide with lighting, props, speakers, and music fading is unreal. We all never wanted the party to end- so much so that when the music stopped my nephew was distraught because he wanted to keep dancing to the DJ. Another nephew came up to my husband and I to tell us “this is the best party ever.” I honestly didn’t know this kind of service was even a possibility for DJ/entertainment on my wedding day. They made our day so special- more than we could ever have imagined. I wish we could do it again and I wouldn’t change a thing!

MVP, without a doubt. Prior to the day itself, we met several times with EE to review music choices, timeframe of the days events and to be supported through the many entertainment options they provide. EE was not only able to include any music selections we could dream of, but they were also able to connect us with additional vendors such as our Italian Espresso machine, a Craps table with professional dealer and on-site cigar rollers. It was important to us that our guests had a variety of choices when it came to entertainment at our wedding and EE certainly delivered. There was also time and care given to the colors and coordinating lighting that would best suit the atmosphere we hoped to create for our day. In the days following our wedding we reflected on who had the most impact on ensuring our special day felt like a success. We couldn’t stop talking about how impressive EE’s organization of our day, positive energy when interacting with our guests and overall professionalism was in providing us with an incredible wedding experience. In addition to how impressed we felt, we also received a multitude of compliments from guests on how smooth the day progressed, the mix and flow of music and the variety of provided entertainment. Evan’s joyful energy and genuine interactions with guests were highly noted. As the bride, I appreciated how often EE checked in with me - particularly when I first arrived. EE’s guidance of our scheduled events and overall attentiveness in ensuring I was informed and supported with any questions or concerns I might have had throughout the evening put me at ease. Looking back, we both acknowledge Evan and the Entertainment Express team with providing us with the stability and assurance we needed on such an important day. Entertainment Express are an absolute credit to the Padua Weddings family and my husband and I could not be happier with their services. Thank you Evan and Entertainment Express!

passion was infectious. We had a team of 2 with a dj and mc pair which was great because the dj could focus on the music while the mc led the events of the night. The mc in particular made this whole package worth it because we had a schedule made before hand. They give a packet out to get to know the couple, and yes this means there will be homework, but it is all to create a schedule and profile that keeps the event going and all the music was tailored to our specific taste. Couldn't recommend these guys more! Thank you for making our wedding day even better!

m to anyone planning an event. We had our wedding April 1st at Padua, and the planning process with Brett and Evan was so easy and fun. They went above and beyond with honoring our goofy requests. EE and Padua's staff work so well together that our wedding day was stress free. We enjoyed every minute of our wedding and couldn't have asked for a better group of people to help make this day possible! We love you guys!

y breaking everything down step by step to not overwhelm us. We had a unique wedding that had to balance both Egyptian and Mexican culture and they went above and beyond for us. We are still getting compliments about the party they put on. I couldn't imagine our wedding without them and would highly recommend them!

id “here’s your party!” Entertainment Express made everything SO easy. From my large homework packet (that my over thinking self loved) to keeping the party going. They nailed everything. It was so easy to communicate with them and after a year of seeing each other all the time I’m going to miss them! They were fantastic and I’m trying to find an excuse to throw another party so I can work with them again. Thanks for everything guys!!

scuss our event and right away we knew we were in good hands and working with an experienced, professional, well organized team. Based on our discussions, Brett planned, personalized and coordinated our event with exceptional attention to the details of our sunset/evening setting, to the timing and flow of our wedding ceremony and reception, to the beautiful lighting throughout the event, and to the specifics of the music playlist we created. Every aspect of our event was covered and executed with the utmost professional and tasteful touch. Brett and the EE team always made us feel welcome. They are genuinely friendly, personable, accommodating, and were always responsive to all of our questions and concerns. Our wedding was everything we had hoped for and more, and we would not have the wonderful memories of our wedding day without the incredible expertise of Brett and the Entertainment Express team. EE truly made planning and coordinating quite effortless for us. We are grateful for that, and we would highly recommend their services.

were phenomenal. They made the planning so easy and less stressful, especially during this pandemic. Very good with communication and always responding in a timely manner. Brett was our MC and he made our wedding fun and was so organized, it went so smooth. Thank you Brett! Everything was amazing, the up lighting looked beautiful. I highly recommend EE for your wedding! Thanks again EE!!! Sincerely, The Landicho's

e we had the best day ever. We received so many compliments from our guests too! Not just on the music, but on the flow of our reception timeline. They really take the time to plan and execute your wedding to perfection. There are so many little details you don't think of but they have mastered it all. They even got us some appetizers and our signatures drinks when we were busy with photos during cocktail hour! We want to thank Evan and Brett for taking great care of us throughout the wedding process and especially on our wedding day!

d things I would never have even thought of, from my cake plate, to the order we took pictures, when to take pictures, who was walking in with who, he made sure we had food while getting ready, and he literally wrote my welcome speech on the spot for me because I FORGOT!!! Ben was a fantastic deejay, so fun! And our guests loved Evan. He was so professional and kept our night moving so smooth. Our wedding was a dream come true and they are worth every penny.

business is top notch. They were kind, very professional, and SUPER detailed, which is a big help for us when planning our wedding. They also took the time to listen to our ideas, gave us a space to brainstorm together, and were AMAZING during the wedding itself as part of their service provided structure to the wedding - everything was scheduled and on a timeline which they track - which was great when it was time to transition people from the cocktail hour to dinner to cake to dancing to the grand exit at the end. They were on top of it all, keeping track of our schedule and keeping the wedding moving, in addition to having a great DJ playing our favorite music that we picked in the background. Lastly, they were sincere, genuine, kind and respectful, and helped us out at every step of the process. They made a stressful event much more easy, fun, and provided structure (which took the load off our shoulders on our wedding day, which is a really nice feeling). Again, I could not recommend more. They were above and beyond expectations for us. If you want a better, smoother, more authentic, more professional wedding - go with with Entertainment Express.

y areas of planning wedding music. He totally got the vibe we wanted for the wedding, including our nod to Harry Potter!! He had great suggestions for the areas we were sure about and had no problem doing research with us to find perfect songs. Brett was an incredible MC during the wedding as well and kept everything running so smoothly through the ceremony, dinner, and dancing. He checked in with us throughout the night to make sure everything was going well and we had all we needed. We were told by several guests it was the best, most fun wedding they’d ever been too! Thank you so much Brett!! I almost wish we could do it all over again!! Lol Almost ;)

saved me from awkward conversations. He literally lead the whole night and did it flawlessly. He helped with one unruly guest and told us not to even worry about it. I wasn't sure if I needed a wedding coordinator or if I should hire a planner, but after meeting with Evan & Brett, they literally timed my whole day out to the minute. I felt so comfortable and ready after our last meeting that I was able to save those $3-6k and put it towards photo booths, desserts, etc. If you book Padua, or actually if you book anywhere, book Entertainment Express. They made my venue look like a literal movie. THANK YOU GUYS!!!!

usic the day off the wedding. Brett helped us with the planning process, timeline of the ceremony and reception, and of course the music. The music played were followed according to what we have decided during the planning stages. Everyone complimented how great the music progressed during the ceremony and the reception. Brett was out MC, and he did a wonderful job with the timeline. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ/MC/Music and timeline coordinator than Entertainment Express! Thank you very much! Till our next event!

he stress of planning a wedding by working closely with us to make sure we had everything we needed and wanted. They have awesome recommendations and feedback. Brett even referred us to our officiant who ended up being perfect. We had a some last minute changes on the day of our wedding that they were able to handle with no problems. Again very professional and the music selection was great! If its in your budget I would book with them ASAP because they will help you with things you didn't even know you needed help with. Thanks Entertainment Express for making our day perfect!

un. Everyone had so much fun and said the music was perfect. I loved how everyone was always smiling and their equipment at Padua was amazing! When they showed me the bubbles on the dance floor, I knew I had to have them. It was the cherry one top! I love them!

timeline meeting was truly amazing. He gave us great advice on how to increase our dance time. Both of us were so happy that we did! He allowed us to add the LOVE sign pretty close to our wedding date. If he hadn’t heard from me via email, Brett would send out a reminder email. The music, lighting, emcee, sound quality, the bubbles, the timeline, everything from that day was truly perfect! Thank you, Brett, for help making our wedding day so perfect!
