Very professional but so fun! Made our wedding that much memorable!
These guys were amazing!!!
Jay and Ryan are the best.
True professionals. We are so glad we booked Gearbox Entertainment for our wedding day.
They rocked the dance floor all night and the lighting was stunning!!
If you’re in need of lighting need? Look no further than Gearbox. I knew we were in great hands with Ryan and Gearbox Entertainment. They always exceed my expectations! Our wedding reception was perfect because of Gearbox! I would recommend them to anyone needing lighting needs for your wedding day!
Ryan and his team were professional start to finish. They kept the dance floor alive just like I requested. Held transitions perfectly. Even my coordinator who has dealt with many more DJs than myself said he was one of the best she has worked with. Would hire again in a heartbeat!
We are so happy we hired Gearbox for both lighting and DJ services for our wedding. We had a vision for ambience and music for ceremony, reception, and exit, and they brought each of these to life and more.
We had multiple guests approach us to say they hadn’t previously seen our venue look so beautiful, and this was largely due to the sunset effect that Gearbox was able to create with their lighting. They also provided cold/floor sparklers for our exit that completely elevated the experience.
Gearbox’s DJ services are the best I’ve experienced for a wedding. They are so professional and easy to work with for MC’ing and transitioning between event activities. They also nailed our music taste and live mixed the music throughout the night to seamlessly transition between high energy jams, line dances, singalongs, and slow dances.
Ryan, Jay, and the team at Gearbox were huge contributors to ensuring our wedding was the best night of our lives.
Good communication and fair pricing! They have great energy and were great to work with. I really enjoyed their process in getting to know us, as a couple, so that our guests would be entertained well.
Made the day amazing! They were super easy to work and it was very stress free. And even put in a couple special touches that were amazing. Several guests have told me how much they enjoyed the music and the atmosphere!
Gearbox was absolutely perfect with our wedding! They were so easy to work with, and Ryan was amazing with communication leading up to our wedding day in July. They followed our wants and wishes to a “T”, and the music was so great! I so recommend them because they will absolutely be one of the best parts of your wedding!
We were so blessed to have Gearbox at our wedding!! They are so professional and on point with everything they do. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. They went above and beyond for us.
Jay was the DJ at our wedding on 7/30/22 and we cannot say enough good things about him and the entire Gearbox Team! They were punctual and professional while keeping the dance floor alive! They provided MC services but did not interfere with the dancing! We also used their uplighting and monogram services which truly transformed our ballroom space. I am so happy we trusted Gearbox with our wedding day!
If you’re looking for the best these guys are it! From the lighting to the music, Gearbox made our wedding day absolutely PERFECT! Not only were they professional they were fun! Highly recommend their services!
Absolutely loved working with Gearbox Entertainment! I am a wedding planner and they are seriously one of the best DJ’s I’ve worked with. Not only are they right on with music & providing an awesome atmosphere for a wedding - but they are super easy to communicate with & always were responsive to my communications. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a really amazing DJ!
I loved these guys! They were very easy to communicate with while planning everything out! They played the songs I wanted (which is very important to me haha) and my friends and family loved them! I got the package with the lighting and it transformed my venue! I highly recommend using them!
Gearbox was so great to work with! We hired them for our wedding to do uplighting, accent lighting, and monogram design/projection. They made the process so easy and executed everything flawlessly the day of! Lighting seriously does add so much to the look of your event. I would highly recommend Gearbox to anyone looking for lighting and/or DJ services!
They are amazing! They were very helpful with this indecisive bride. I will recommend them to anyone who ever asks for a DJ or lighting.
I hired GearBox Entertainment to dJ my daughters wedding. They were to handle the music for the ceremony as well as the reception. I could not ask for anyone to work harder or more professionally. They absolutely did an amazing job. They handled the lighting as well as announcing events to keep the reception flowing. I enjoyed their work and highly recommend them!!
I am in love with everything y’all did for us!!!! So many comments about how incredible y’all were!!!! I wouldn’t ever choose anyone else ever for lighting or dj at any other events for us!
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you!!
We used Gearbox for our wedding and I can not express enough how wonderful of a job they did. The music was perfect- the lighting was perfect- and the staff were crazy nice and professional. I definitely would use them 10 more times!
Ryan and the Gearbox team were a pleasure to work with for my big day hosted at the Grand Magnolia Ballroom on May 22, 2021. We planned it pretty quick and even though we were limited on time and made some last minute decisions they were efficient and handled everything beautifully and myself and my guests had an amazing experience. The uplighting we ordered through Gearbox added that special touch that you don't realize you will miss until you see the light painting every corner of your event space. Definitely spend the little extra for those little added details. It is worth it. Thanks again to all the team at Gearbox for providing much more than entertainment for Corey and I's special day!
Gearbox was amazing! They made it super easy to provide the playlist. They knew exactly what type of music to play for our wedding guest. The lighting was perfection from the cake to the dance floor. They even customized a walk monogram for the newlyweds. On top of that, the crew was amazing and friendly. We will use them again for our next event. Highly recommend!!!
Gearbox was fantastic and so easy to work with! They worked with us through a few changes of vision and everything turned out perfectly. We had guests tell us they’ve never seen the venue look as good as it did at our reception. The DJ was great and read the room very well. He played requests in a timely manner and hardly anyone left the dance floor all night - and that’s what we wanted! Great job by these guys.
We had SO much fun! My guests never left the dance floor and we partied down to the last minute! There were no hiccups or any issues with any of the music, at least none that I noticed, and they went with the flow of our wedding and adapted to what we wanted. 10/10 would recommend!
My husband and I absolutely loved using Gearbox Entertainment for our lighting and music. They were so very professional and played all of the right music. The lighting made our venue come to life! We will definitely recommend using them to all of our friends and family
Absolutely professional and amazing! Ryan was super nice and easy to communicate with through the whole process. I had to reschedule my wedding due to Covid however he worked with me without any complaints. I requested them to play Vietnamese music at my reception and they did it without any hesitation even though they had very little knowledge of it. The dj and crew was super nice and professional. They all worked really hard. The lighting was perfect at my venue during the reception. Best customer service ever! I would recommend them over and over again!
Helped make our day so special. Very punctual and professional!! Thank you so much!!
Amazing DJ and Lighting services. I just had my wedding this weekend. They were easy to communicate with and listened
to everything I wanted at my wedding. They had a wide selection of songs and had every song I requested with the right version. They kept the reception fun and upbeat. The lighting package we had was perfect. It added that little detail that the venue needed. I would rate them a 10/10 and will definitely be recommending them to everyone! Thank you so much for making my day perfect. Thank you Ryan Myers for always following up, even with y’all’s busy schedule 💙🤍👰♀️🤵♂️
Ryan and Jay handled our ceremony and reception flawlessly, from the singers' mics to the gobo and up lighting. They had everything set up in a timely manner before the ceremony began and they kept the party rolling during the reception. I have zero regrets booking them to handle our day!
I had a great experience with Gearbox! They did great work with the up lighting and projecting our personalized logo on the wall at our wedding. I talked with Ryan months before the wedding, and he was so nice, helpful, and honest about what I did and didn’t need in my venue as far as lighting went. He never tried to push me to get a certain thing but was very informative about everything he offered. He also had the best prices that I came across! I’ll without a doubt always recommend Gearbox!
Ryan and his team are incredible! I had to change my wedding date a few times and they were always so quick to respond and work with me on a new date. He made my reception look incredible with his lighting capabilities. I would recommend them to everyone! Lighting makes such a huge difference in a space. I cannot thank them enough for all of their hard work and attention to detail.
I cannot say enough about this company! Not only were they so easy to communicate with (Ryan is the sweetest and really listens to detail), but they wanted our wedding to be just as perfect as we did! During covid times, we had a lot of worries, and they assured us they had our backs no matter what happened. The lighting was amazing. I highly recommend getting the up-lighting and the monogram on the wall. It made us really not have to do much else decoration wise! The DJ (Hyphe) was awesome as well. He did everything we asked and went with the flow when things didn't go to plan. The music was the PERFECT mix of old and new and lots of dance hits! They got there early to set up and was a very easy process. Overall I would recommend anyone to use this company for whatever function they were looking to do.
Wonderful Dj and lighting service. I just had my wedding this weekend and they were over the top. They were easy to communicate with and listened
to everything I wanted at my wedding. They had a wide selection of songs and had every song I requested with the right version. They kept the reception fun and upbeat. The lighting package we had was perfect. It added that little detail that the venue needed. I would rate them a 10/10 and will definitely be recommending them to everyone! Thank you so much for making my day perfect.
We have used Gearbox Entertainment for 2 of my children's weddings and both times, they exceeded my expectations. The first was just the lighting and they did an amazing job. My daughter's wedding was just a couple of weeks ago and we did the lighting as well as the D.J. As always, they did a great job. Ryan is very reasonable and extremely easy to work with. I definitely recommend Gearbox to anyone looking for friendly, reliable, and professional lighting and DJ Services. Thank you again for making the day so special!!
Super easy to work with, good pricing, my lighting was breathtakingly beautiful! Only reason for 4 stars was the music played was definitely a different vibe than the music we selected from our spotify playlist as a guide, and the shoe game was forgotten that we wanted to play for the reception. BUT overall I am pleased and had a great time at my wedding!
Gearbox exceeded our expectations!
From their response time to specific request is the best!
They have the best costumer service.
Ryan and his team were an absolute pleasure to work with.
I would recommend them to everyone having future events.
Love Love Love the professionalism of this company! Great customer service, communication, and options galore! Gear Box Entertainment has it ALL!!!
Everyone that we worked with at Gearbox was professional and friendly. Even through rescheduling due to the pandemic, we had zero issues. Every song requested was played, even in the rain! Thank you for helping to make the night wonderful!
I feel SO compelled to write this review because Gearbox Entertainment absolutely made our wedding so perfect. I didn't use The Knot for any other vendors besides Gearbox Entertainment, so I hope that other brides looking on The Knot and needing a DJ will turn to Gearbox.
I have to start by saying that Ryan Meyers of Gearbox is patient, agreeable, friendly, and so easy to work with. We had issues with my wedding where we switched venues three months before the wedding, even though we had the other venue planned for almost nine months. Ryan worked with me from the very beginning with the old venue and was so flexible and understanding about our need to switch to the new venue. He routinely met with us at the old venue to help us with lighting, and when we switched venues so soon before the wedding, he met with us there as well to help us change our prior decisions to fit the new place.
We used Gearbox Entertainment for both lights and the DJ services. The lighting looked exceptional and so professional. The lighting was absolutely necessary for the food, cake, and outdoor areas, and I'm so grateful we used lighting services with Gearbox.
For DJ services, Daniel from Gearbox DJ'ed for us. He was incredible! My husband and I never wanted a band for our wedding because we have such a wide range in our taste of music - alt. rock, indie, grunge, dance, etc. My husband and I knew we would need a DJ who could play a range of our song choices while also filling the extra time with other music that would still fit our taste. My husband and I met telephonically with Ryan and Daniel and told Daniel our tastes in music, and Daniel completely delivered at the reception. My husband and I were delighted at the music and when some of our favorite songs came on without us requesting them or mentioning them in advance. Daniel was great with timing, and he honored our guests' musical requests as well. Our reception was so fun because of the music, and I've had multiple guests tell me that the music was their favorite that they've ever heard at a wedding.
Ryan knew we had a budget, and he completely worked with us to stay within our budget while helping us make sure that we were getting the most optimized services that we could get with our budget. His pricing was honest and affordable for us, and it was 100% worth everything we spent. Communication with him was quick and easy, and he was so responsive.
I would recommend Gearbox Entertainment 10/10 times, and I am so glad that I found these guys on The Knot.
Thank y'all again for sharing this past weekend with us. It was everything we dreamed of because of people like you who were there to make it easy. We certainly are glad Gearbox was a part of it all.
Have a great week! THANK YOU!
These guys did a wonderful job with our wedding reception! They easily accommodated every one of our requests. They kept the party moving along and on schedule. They were very professional. We would highly recommend Gearbox for your dj needs.
Gearbox made my wedding beautiful with the uplighting and monogram. Great company I highly recommend.
We had a great time with the entire Gearbox crew from the time we booked them, to rescheduling our wedding due to Covid and finally getting a date picked and married! Ryan and everyone we dealt with was super responsive and very professional the entire process! They were a breeze to work with and had plenty of different options as far as packages and different choices that they offered. We used them for both DJ services (Jay was great!) and lighting. They did both our ceremony and reception and it was all PERFECT! The cake lighting was a great addition to our package and really made a difference in how our cake looked! We also did the Gobo design that was spotlighted on a wall during our entire reception and really filled the room and you get it as a souvenir to take home after! Jay kept the party going during our reception and worked so well with us all night and kept us on track with our detailed timeline! Jay and Ryan three way called me the week of the wedding just to reconfirm and go over all the details before our wedding and it really helped ease any worries we may have had. The day was perfect as well as everything leading up to it! I would 10/10 recommend Gearbox Entertainment for any of your wedding or event needs!
We were so impressed and truly did not want the party to end! Our only “regret” for the night was that it didn’t last longer....We had a BLAST. Thank you for everything!
Best,
Gabi LANG :-)
Gearbox was fantastic! They were easy to work with, and made my big day fantastic. They gave a discount to teachers (which is amazing)! They were punctual, full of personality, and got our wedding party pumped up for our entrance. I HIGHLY recommend Gearbox!
We had a great experience with Gearbox and Ryan was amazing. Thank you for all you did to make my daughters special day so complete :)
Great job by Ryan Meyers and his team. Very professional and easy to work with. Thanks for helping to create a beautiful wedding reception experience! Five stars.
I wish honestly that there were more stars because they deserve it. They are so amazing! Their communication was incredible, they accommodated to any needs i had, made my wedding perfect, and overall just great people who put me at ease and gave me the best day. Definitely go to their Instagram and look at their beautiful work! My wedding was the December 14th if you want to see! I highly highly recommend them!!

I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and Joey. They did an AMAZING job at our wedding and I highly recommend them for any event! You will not regret it!
Gearbox was amazing. They did the lighting for my wedding last night and it was absolutely beautiful. Super professional and wonderful and easy to deal with. I only used them for lighting but I can only imagine how exceptional they are at everything else they do.
Gearbox Entertainment did our wedding back on June 20, 2017. The entertainment couldn’t have gone any better. Amazing to work with and communication was top notch!
Great music played all night! Very professional and played a lot of fun upbeat music and everybody at the wedding loved it.
They were easy to work with during the planning stages and the price for the value is unmatched!
WIthout a doubt an incredible company to work with for our special wedding day.
From the first phone call when I inquired more information, to constant contact leading up to the big event! The set up was professional, each detail was perfect from lights to music selection!
Our guest had an absolute blast and I highly recommend this company. If I was getting married again next week I would use Gearbox again without a doubt. Thanks guys for being part of our perfect night!
Couldn’t ask for better entertainment!! The DJ rocked the dance floor at my wedding and the uplighting was perfect!
Very professional. The DJs were above and beyond my expectations. Perfect music choices for a mixed age group of college students and adults. (from 30-60 years old). Thank you!!
I would highly recommend Joey & Ryan for any event you my have. The music & up lighting for my daughters wedding was more then we could have ask for. And they are so easy to work with. I would give them 10 stars!!
