We booked Ben (DJ Cav) as our DJ for our wedding, already knowing he was a talented DJ, and he exceeded every expectation! He was attentive and so enjoyable to work with from the f...
irst meeting, and he ensured everything went smoothly. The dance floor was an absolute blast, and Ben kept the party GOING with a packed dance floor the entire night. So many of our guests continue to tell us how awesome of a DJ he was! He very playfully and creatively mixed and played the best parts of all the songs, making sure that the energy was hyped all night (even during our silent disco!). We had the best time, and Ben really made our wedding celebration better than we could have imagined! You couldn’t get a better DJ than him!

Dustin, aka DJ Dudley D is hands down the best DJ we could have asked for! 10000/10000 stars!
He is a master at mixing all sorts of songs and genres, keeps your dance floor PACKED...
, and when issues out of his control arise, he solves them without you knowing, keeping your day stress free! He was the easiest vendor to work with and top-tier at communication.
Our wedding venue's speakers broke and while the venue did absolutely nothing to remedy the situation (didn't have backup speakers, wouldn't send out emergency support, admitted their speakers were on their last leg... the list goes on) Dustin had a solid backup plan. He was professional and kept his cool. We didn't know about any of the issues he faced until after the wedding!
Dustin is worth more than he charges and you will not regret hiring him! He'll make custom first-dance and grand march songs for you, and is truly an artist at mixing songs. There's a reason Prince hired him as his DJ!

You won't regret going with GenerationNOW. We had DJ Mad Mardigan and our dance floor was packed from start to finish. These are professional DJs in the wedding setting and you can...
tell. They read the crowd for how long to play songs, honor song requests, can mix songs perfectly, and really create an awesome atmosphere. Many guests came up to us saying he was the best DJ they've ever seen at a a wedding. Can't say enough good things about DJ Mad Mardigan. Communication throughout whether it was with Tim or DJ Mad Mardigan was great too. We are very thankful we went with GenerationNOW and will recommend them to anyone and everyone!

ples how important the DJ was to set the tone of the night and keep the party going - which is 100% true - and we knew with the Gen Now team we would not have to stress about this. They are truly pros! Tim is super easy to reach and quick to respond and set us up with DJ Munya! DJ Munya was awesome and has the BEST energy. We knew right away after meeting him that we didn’t need to worry about him getting the party started or keeping it going. DJ Munya is charismatic and has an awesome voice for announcing. His dinner music playlist was a great mix and the dance music was a great combination of classic and new hits to keep everyone in the crowd dancing. He also did a great job announcing our wedding party and guiding the order of events and getting the attention of our guests. Munya also recommended doing a photo dash and taking pictures with every guest table rapidly after the grand march and right before dinner and this is one of our favorite things that we did! It was so fun, totally set the tone for the night, and we are so thrilled we got a picture with every single one of our guests! Thank you DJ Munya and Gen Now DJs!

DJ Mad Mardigan recently DJ'd our wedding, and I couldn't have been more thrilled with the decision. Aside from his amazing talent, he was also extremely professional beginning wit...
h the planning process, through to the last song of the night. He set up multiple meetings to make sure that my husband and I got exactly what we wanted and he provided all of the equipment, making set-up seamless.
The absolute best part about the whole thing was Nick's ability to read the crowd and keep the energy all night long. Transitions between songs were flawless, and the dance floor was packed from start to finish. We didn't have a single lull- just a constant flow of a mix of old and new music that kept all of my guests excited.
After the wedding, both my husband and I received several texts from friends and family members saying how impressed they were with the music (a few sore from dancing LOL). Thanks to DJ Mad Mardigan- it was an unforgettable party. If you're looking for a DJ who can elevate your wedding or event and keep the crowd interested, look no further!

DJ Mad Mardigan we got exactly that! Communication during the entire process with both Tim and Nick was smooth and prompt. Nick, "DJ Mad Mardigan" fully brought our vision to life and we have been hearing from friends and family daily since the wedding that it was the best DJ they have ever seen at a wedding! Nick worked with us on how we wanted music structured throughout the day, put all our favorites in the dance just at the right time, and kept the dance floor full ALL evening long! We are huge Timberwolves fans and we truly felt like we had our own personal wolves game at our wedding! If we had to do our wedding over again we would 100% choose GenNow and Nick again!

As a local wedding planner, I always recommend GenerationNOW to my clients. Last week, I had the opportunity to work with them on the Minnesota Bride Best of 2024 event. Leading up...
to the event, Tim was fantastic to work with—professional, sincere, and dedicated to ensuring the event's success.
During the event, we worked with several of their team members. DJ Cav created the perfect indoor ambiance with background music. His DJ setup was not only impressive but also sleek and modern. Outdoors in the courtyard, Daniel, known as "the violinist," delighted everyone with his live music and engaging presence. He not only performed but also interacted with guests, showcasing his skills. During the awards show, DJ Kasper handled the music and MC duties flawlessly, ensuring this part of the event ran smoothly.
A big shout out to the entire GenerationNOW team—working with you all was an amazing experience! Let's do it again soon!

We can say numerous great things about GenerationNOW Entertainment and DJ Mickey - what a duo!
To start the communication with Tim of GenerationNOW and DJ Mickey was exceptional. ...
They were professional and highly responsive from the initial planning stages to the actual event.
On the day of the event, there was an error regarding the date and time of the event, made on our behalf (NOT made by GenerationNOW). We quickly emailed Tim of GenerationNOW Entertainment, and his response to the matter and confidence in providing a solution was in a matter of minutes! We were relieved and beyond grateful for their willingness to accommodate the special request and make an on-the-spot adjustment.
What truly sets GenerationNOW Entertainment apart from any other entertainment company is its flexibility and commitment to excellence.
DJ Mickey demonstrated an impeccable sense of timing, seamlessly blending upbeat tracks during the high-energy moments and more relaxed, melodic tunes during the quieter, contemplative parts of the event. This dynamic range kept our Members engaged and entertained throughout the evening.
The highlight of the evening was when DJ Mickey seamlessly mixed in some golf-themed tracks and sound bites, adding a playful and personalized touch to the event. Talk about custom and creative flair!
All this to be said, DJ Mickey's performance was nothing short of spectacular. He managed to create a vibrant, engaging, and memorable atmosphere that elevated the entire evening for our Members.
His talent, professionalism, and outstanding communication were evident in every beat, making them an essential part of the event's success. I would highly recommend GenerationNOW Entertainment, especially DJ Mickey, for any event looking to blend sophistication with a lively, engaging vibe. Absolutely top-notch!
We can't wait to plan another event with GenerationNOW Entertainment and DJ Mickey!

wasn’t pushy and honestly cares about making your day special. We had meetings along the way and Tim always replied to our questions quickly and professionally. Our DJ a few weeks before our wedding had a family emergency and wasn’t going to be able to do our wedding but without missing a beat Tim and crew handled it without making it stressful for us. They ended up upgrading our DJ for us at no extra cost to us! It was so nice of them. The DJ we had was Charlie and he was excellent! Took time to meet us and talk about our expectations and music genres we liked. His music selection was spot on and the way he kept the music and lighting alive it kept the dance floor full. We had many people compliment how much fun our dance was and how they enjoyed the DJ. Don’t waste your time shopping around else where. These guys are the pros and truly love what they do. Thank you guys for making the day special!

NOW was the best choice we could've made. Dustin set the vibe for the night — the song choices and the lights had people dancing the night away. He hyped the crowd (he has the perfect announcer/emcee voice), and made sure I (the bride) was happy all night.
We were also particular about what we wanted and what we didn’t want — and DJ Dudley honored all of our requests :) We also requested he play only 4-5 Persian songs (my side is Persian), and he incorporated the music seamlessly into the night! Our wedding reception was an absolute blast, and I attribute it to an amazing DJ!! <3 Thank you GenNOW and DJ Dudley D for making it the best reception possible.

During dinner, we threw a last minute curveball at him to DJ a game we played with all the tables, and he executed it perfectly on the fly. His emceeing was perfect and got the crowd hyped! Just the perfect amount of talking on the mic and only when necessary and when additive. I still have "GIVE IT UP FOR YOUR BRIDES!" stuck in my head in DJ Low's voice, and I love it because he provided the best party we could've ever asked for. GenNow was worth the extra money because they deliver on their promise of a dang good party. My people were JAMMING!!!!!!!

thly. Being that GenerationNOW DJ's do more than just wedding DJ'ing, we thought it was worth the extra $$. If you're on the fence about whether or not the cost compared to other services is worth it, forget about it and book with GenerationNOW. We were paired with Matt and it was a great fit. We provided a Spotify playlist to give him an idea of the genres of music we liked. Matt did a phenomenal job playing songs we and our guests requested, as well as filling in the gaps and helping with our ceremony. Matt was super flexible and went with the flow. As always there were a few hiccups but Matt was more than accommodating. It was great to have him help with our ceremony, make announcements, and overall make sure our guests had great time. We have a friend that used to wedding DJ, and he was blown away by the setup and skill of Matt. Cannot recommend enough.

GenerationNOW were great to work with in planning for our wedding. We knew we wanted the best DJ we could find to ensure our wedding was a party all night long! DJ Mad Mardigan d...
elivered just that! The dance floor was packed the entire night, as he played hit after hit. Guests repeatedly commented that it was the best wedding party they had been to! And many commented that their feet were sore the next day...the sign of a great night of dancing!
And do yourself a favor - get the cold sparklers! They added an extra special touch of cool to the night!

DJ Kasper is THE BEST. We got married in October and we only have good things to say! He cared about the music and genuinely cared about us as a couple (we got happy hour and discu...
ssed the wedding vision, timeline and music). Anthony had perfect timing, and brought the party and vibe we were looking for the whole day. He engaged with our family (thanks for giving my dad the mic last minute :) ) and friends. We look back on the day, and the dance floor was the highlight. Thank you and highly recommend!

We agree, Kasper is the BEST! He enjoyed every minute of your celebration. Thank you for...

We couldn't have had a better experience than we did with GenerationNOW. Tim was extremely helpful in explaining our options for DJ's & equipment. Although our venue was a little l...
arger, Tim knew the venue and noted the basic sound package would be more than enough. Goes to show what kind of company GenerationNOW is that they didn't try to upsell something that wasn't necessary, which is truly appreciated. We had Nick (DJ Mad Mardigan) as our DJ and he was incredible. From the introductory zoom call through the end of the party, Nick was fantastic. He pays attention to the clientele and knows how to get people on the dance floor (and keep them there). We had various friends throughout the night say DJ Mad Mardigan was the best DJ of all the weddings they've been to. 10/10 would recommend both GenerationNOW overall and DJ Mad Mardigan, specifically!

From our first phone call with Tim, we knew that GenNOW was the right choice for our wedding! He really listened to what we were looking for and made suggestions that fit our need...
s. DJ Velvet was a perfect match for us and he had our guests dancing all night long! We got so many compliments about how much fun everyone was having and how awesome the DJ was! It made us feel great about our decision and we felt lucky to have our wedding be DJ Velvet's last gig! Highly recommend GenNOW for your next event!

us every step of the way with his response time and attention to detail.
Now for our insanely talented DJ, Shawn: we had a unique wedding that blended Bollywood songs, recorded tracks for a Sangeet show, and of course the latest hits for the reception. I knew I could trust Shawn to do all of this, and he surpassed my expectations. Shawn, and generationNOW, THANK YOU for making this the best experience and I’m so happy to have chosen you as my DJ!!!
