Event Team Entertainment

o on, and on, and on! He did a great job of mixing together our wide range of music tastes while taking requests on the day of - leading the event as a phenomenal MC. He really made it a point to get to know us as a couple and made us feel extremely special throughout the planning process. We will forever recommend Event Team Entertainment!

sm, creativity, and charisma. He was responsive to our needs, flexible and generous on pricing, and a great resource in helping plan our vision for the day. We ultimately had to postpone a year due to COVID and Shawn was extremely flexible in working with us to make the day happen, despite obstacles. He stayed on at no extra cost, and connected us with one of the other DJs at ETE (DJ Robby) who would be available on our new date. When the day finally came, Shawn found time to join as well, giving us 2 terrific DJ/MCs for the price of one! DJ Robby did a phenomenal job striking the right mood, getting people out on the dance floor, and creating special moments along the way. He also helped us design our playlist, and pick songs that worked out perfectly for the ceremony itself. He was a joy to work with. While we had chosen a particularly difficult venue to cater, ETE did a flawless job with the sound and equipment. I would fully recommend hiring them for your event, whatever the setting or celebration!

nd who also patiently helped us think through a number of the “big moment” songs for our wedding day. Fast forward to the day of, and Robby was very easy to work with, personable, and truly helped make our day very memorable. We highly recommend the team!

we trusted our wedding planner. And she was right! We emailed back and forth with Shawn a few weeks before the wedding and we planned a call as well. I could just tell by our phone call that he would be someone who would be easy to work with. Shawn has a great personality. He has just the right amount of energy and knows how to make it fun. We also used Event Team Management for our photo booth and snow machine. The photo booth was perfect. They created a beautiful template for the pictures and the staff that worked the photo booth were just as awesome as Shawn. We got so many compliments about how fun the photo booth was and the quality of the pictures, how quickly they print, how you can have them emailed to you, etc. The snow machine was also perfect. We wanted a winter like feel. We used it for our first dance and he used it off and on during the dancing. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ. Another perk is that he has an awesome mic that he uses. I can't say enough great things about them.

e was the best and I knew that when I got married I needed him at my reception. I hired Jesse to DJ my reception and he was so much more than just a 'wedding DJ'. My husband and I met with Jesse a couple times before our wedding to go over all the details, work out the day-of-timeline, and talk about the songs we wanted played for all the key moments of our wedding and reception. Jesse was able to make it to our rehearsal dinner and help us figure out the procession, how to stand, spacing, etc. It was so helpful there was no need for us to hire a day of coordinator. Our wedding and reception were perfect and the dance floor was packed all night. It was an amazing day! I give Event Team Entertainment my highest recommendation. They really are the best, very professional, and have years of expertise, they know what they are doing, how to read the crowd, and keep the guests on the dance floor!

ed an awesome mix of everyone’s favorites. Definitely recommend him and Event Team !

RAN our rehearsal the night before! He was so on top of it the entire time, I don't know what we would have done without him. The wedding party and family members on both sides couldn't stop raving about how amazing the DJ was! A few of my guests also told me he had the best playlist they'd ever heard and that they couldn't pull themselves off the dance floor, they were having so much fun. In addition to all of that, Shawn surprised the groom and I with a last dance song that was mixed in with sound bites from our vows. AMAZING. Shawn had an impressive attention to detail and awareness of the vibe and flow of the event, allowing him to make adjustments as the night progressed. If I could give 10 stars, I would!

he moment we met Shawn, we felt confident he would do an amazing job. Shawn made our day more unique and special than I could have imagined. Shawn has a kind and outgoing personality, always responded promptly to emails, answered our questions in detail, offered great song suggestions, attended our rehearsal to meet our families, engaged the crowd during dinner with a fun game, and gave us a special surprise at the end of our reception. He was also flexible based on our budget. If you hire Shawn, you will not be disappointed. He was worth every penny and more. Thank you Event Team!

ganize the entire day. Jesse also came to the rehearsal to ensure the entire bridal party felt comfortable and gave good tricks of the trade to all involved in the wedding. Jesse was a great asset to our special day!

very comfortable. Jesse was great in our pre wedding discussions and during the reception! 10 out or 10, would recommend.

were so impressed by him, we knew he would be our first choice when it came to our big day. We had planned a special portion of the evening dubbed as "Club Leahy" that came from a college joke between my husband and his friends. We wanted this party to feel like a club. Shawn helped us wow our guests giving us amazing ideas to really bring this to life. He suggested gold confetti canons that we had our bridal party set off at the perfect moment, creating amazing photos and really surprising our guests. He provided incredible lighting that changed to the beat of the music and to top it all off him and his team made a spotlight with 'club Leahy' written in it that projected onto the ceiling and around the dance party to the music that was such an awesome surprise. We completed it with a large 6 foot LED backlit sign and glow batons. Our dance party was one for the books and wouldn't have been possible without Shawn and his team. When I sent over last minute song additions the night before our wedding he made them all happen! In addition to a DJ, and lighting, we also used Shawn for our photobooth, which our guests LOVED! The backdrop was awesome, the guests had the option of sending the photo to themselves instantly and it was so awesome to see all of their photos popping up on facebook that evening! Shawn is the perfect DJ for any wedding. He has such a great presence and really knows exactly what to say to keep the flow going, as well as keep your guests on the dance floor! You will be so glad you hired Shawn for your big day!

er the wedding about what an amazing DJ we had. I felt at peace about him running the reception while we were gone for almost an hour taking pictures. He is a nice guy who is a top professional. He followed our wishes on music choice, but he was able to come up with an amazing playlist without us spelling it our for him. Great music, great Emcee, great vendor to work with. DJs can make our break a reception. Jesse did an outstanding job!

nted for our big day. He also set up backlighting that was AMAZING and made the space pop. He kept the music upbeat all night to make the night a big party which is exactly what I wanted. He kept the reception flowing perfectly and was on the mic for just the right amount of time. All of our guests cannot stop talking about how great he was! I loved working with Shawn and would recommend him to everyone!

s a dj but to make sure everything ran on time and smoothly! If you are looking for a dj then stop and call Shawn and the Event team! You will not be disappointed.

erience! My husband and I both live outside of Oregon, so all of our communication had to happen over the phone and via email. Shawn was extremely communicative, and we always felt confident that on the day of, he would be able to help us put on a great event, and we were not disappointment! Up until the day before the wedding I continued to ask for changes, whether it was our first dance that I wanted to change, or adding my brother as a live musician during the ceremony. Shawn made the changes seamless, and helped provide the necessary equipment for our live musical interlude. We received countless compliments during and after our wedding about how much fun it was, and so much of that is because of our DJ. Thank you, Event Team Entertainment!

eded to have him for our wedding as well. Once again, he created the best atmosphere we could imagine for our wedding and reception. The second you meet Shawn, you instantly feel comfortable and know that you're in good hands. He drove up to our house in Tacoma, WA a few months before the wedding to meet with us to discuss music and timeline. He stayed at our house for a few hours as we sat at our kitchen table and listened to music and made choices. I am usually very indecisive and he was able to suggest songs for the ceremony and traditional reception activities that I would have never thought of but that made everything perfect. One of the best parts of hiring Shawn was that he acted so much more than a DJ but as an MC and coordinator at times. He completely ran the show at the rehearsal which was such a relief to just show up and not be stressed about who was where or timing. And then he made sure to pace us at the ceremony and then ran the entire reception seamlessly and exactly as we had discussed. I never once worried about a schedule or timeline and everything I wanted to happen did. During the ceremonial dances (father/daughter, mother/son, and first dance) Shawn created slideshows with photos we provided that was projected onto two screens for everyone to see. And then after the wedding, he put these together with the songs we had chosen and emailed them to us. We watched them one night on our honeymoon and reminisced about the wonderful memories created with these slideshows. We were overjoyed with our wedding and this was largely because of Shawn. Thank you!

, and had an amazing surprise for us at the end of the night that had the entire facility in tears. He even ran our dress rehearsal (as I had a family member perform our wedding and he had never done one either) and offered extremely valuable suggestions, including how to stand for the photographer and how closely we needed to stand to get a good sound for the videographer. You will breathe a breath of fresh air and feel the weight lift off your shoulders when Shawn hands you the list of everything he handles during the ceremony/reception at your first meeting with him... What I was really impressed by was that while Shawn is the owner and has employees to help since he is in such high demand, he doesn't just send his employees to do the work every time. He attends and facilitates every ceremony that he is able to (seems to be on first come first serve basis, so book him early!) We 10000000% recommend Shawn with Event Team Entertainment!

g personable and a lot of fun to work with, he is also incredibly professional and will do anything in his power to ensure that your wedding is perfect. From editing the first song of the night to a perfect 120 bps (which is apparently not too fast or too slow if you want people to get out of their seats to dance) to acting as our Master of Ceremonies, we couldn't have asked for anything more. Still, two more events of night exceeded even the highest of expectations. The first thing was that my mom found an old recording of her father (who passed away 30+ yrs ago) playing a wedding song on the fiddle. She handed it to Shawn the night before our wedding in CD form which wasn't compatible with his system. I thought nothing would come of it, but during our wedding as my parents were walking up to the stage to make their toast, guess what song was playing? Shawn had re-formatted the song overnight and surprised all of us in that moment. My parents broke out in an impromptu dance for 30 seconds and all of our guests were cheering. I don't think anyone knew that it was a surprise to all of us! The second thing had to do with our last dance. Earlier in the day, Shawn had managed the audio for our ceremony. We start dancing to our last song (At Last by Etta James) and all of a sudden, I hear my groom's voice in the song. I thought he was up to something, but then I hear my voice. Shawn had recorded our vows and incorporated them into our last dance song within the 5 hrs since our ceremony! I had never even heard of a DJ doing that. It definitely brought us to tears and he sent us a copy to keep the very next morning. Highly Recommend!

EVER! I cannot recommend him enough! His assistant was a hit with our guests as well!

what we wanted, and had tons of great ideas for us, as well! Jesse kept our guests in the loop with our timeline, kept the energy very high, and kept our friends and family on the dance floor song after song!!! The dance floor was, literally, never empty from the moment the guests were invited to join! A couple of things that our guests really liked about him was that he was friendly, accepted song requests, and seemed to make the whole evening "flow". Service= 5; attentive to our wants; flexible and quick to problem solve when our weather went south Quality= 5; Excellent DJ; good music that was also appropriate for all ages Value= incredible value!

ed out exactly what music would fit. And my husband is pretty picky when it comes to music. Shawn also donated his package to us when he heard about the two major brain surgeries my husband had in the year leading up to our wedding. He was great to work with and I would definitely use him again.

ct! Jesse brings the party!

e the flow at the wedding perfect! He is also an awesome family man, married himself, and knows what it takes to throw off a great wedding. He introduced us as man and wife with Imagine Dragons "It's time!" It was so awesome everyone loved it! He is absolutely all about you and how you want your wedding. If you need to invest in a little more in your wedding, invest in this company because entertainment for yourself and your guests is what will make your night memorable. These guys can do that for you! 5 stars across the board.

onal and easy to reach and didn't seem to mind all of the (nearly) last minute changes I made. He got the party started and kept the party going late into the night. We went over my timeline for the evening and he gently kept us on track-which I greatly appreciated! It was a pleasure working with Event Team Entertainment and I highly recommend them!

fficiated for the first time so Jesse came to the rehearsal and helped us out as well. He kept everyone out on the dance floor and helped the reception flow flawlessly. They are awesome!!!!

ment!!

lled event. Not only was everyone on the dance floor having a great time on the wedding day, but the lead up to the big day was also a stress free process with Jesse. He is beyond reliable, responsive and a true pleasure to work with!!!

He ran our rehearsal flawlessly and then the day of the wedding he made sure everything was on-schedule or even ahead!! He is SO nice and kept the dance floor jam-packed full ALL night long. The best communicator, day-of coordinator, DJ and MC ever. Seriously. Hire him.

ue gratitude for everything he did for us!! He wasn't just a "DJ." He kept the entire night flowing smoothly. I received so many compliments from our guests. I would highly recommend him to anyone getting married or planning an event. He was fantastic!! There was nothing I would have changed. He listened to what we wanted and didn't disappoint. We are forever grateful to have hired him!! I really wish we would have gone with him in the first place!

was willing to drive up to Vancouver to meet us close to our house. Meeting with him was a great experience.  Not only was he easy to talk to and professional, he seriously had his ducks in a row about his business.  He had some great materials to share about what we should expect from a DJ, and then provided plenty of materials demonstrating why Event Team met those expectations. He also had some great planning me trials to help us figure out the entertainment components of the wedding. When we walked out of the meeting, we immediately knew that we would sign a contract with Shawn.  He did not disappoint throughout the planning process or at the wedding. He was both a consummate professional and someone who listened to our requests and accommodated them in every way possible. We had some particular ideas about how we wanted to be announced and the music we wanted, and Shawn asked lots of clarifying questions so he could completely understand what we wanted. At the wedding, the music went almost flawlessly, and at the reception Shawn kept everyone dancing and having a good time. We recommend Shawn and Event Team without reservation. 

music. At the end, he piped in our wedding vows and made a song for us and created the most special moment for us of the entire evening. Shawn also did our sound for the wedding, and everything went perfectly and with perfect sound!!!!

fic dances, toasts etc.). At the end of our contracted time he even kept the music going for and extra 30 minutes because people wanted to keep dancing. Overall I would highly recommend him to anyone! He is a day of planner and dj all in one! Worth every penny!

ite wedding vendor.... I would never have wanted my wedding without them!
