Jim was our DJ and he did an incredible job. Handled our ceremony which was on the side of a mountain outside of Sevierville Tennessee. We were really concerned that the location would not work out, but it was handled perfectly.
He has a terrific voice and a great demeanor. Everyone loved his announcement and how he did the anniversary dance.
Then, after all the formal stuff, he had the dance floor pack the entire night.

Heritage DJs did such a great job of communicating with us thoroughly prior to our wedding to make sure that our day was exactly what we dreamed it was going to be like! They were friendly, personable, timely, and professional in bringing our wedding day to life. We would highly suggest them to anyone who is looking for a flexible and fun wedding DJ who will keep your event stress-free and who has lots of options for lighting, ceremony sound, and multiple sound systems!

I had really high hopes for them based on conversations we had and the reviews I saw. I’ll start with that they were kind and responsive and gave us the ability to customize our pl...
aylist, and were collaborative in the planning steps for both ceremony and reception. They even stepped in to help when our photobooth vendor had an issue and let them use their iPad.
The only thing that left a sour taste is that the actual DJing was not great. Perhaps I had higher expectations for a more modern dancefloor but it felt like the DJ did not care to take time to make note of the songs I requested and how to mix them.
Songs would play for the entirety before switching, one was played as an acoustic version with no beat and then abruptly switched to a song of a different genre with no ease or flow.
Perhaps this is due to having too many song requests but I expected that they would have mixed them in an order than flows and not just sporadically placed.
I don’t expect perfection but I really feel that when I look back to the wedding day, I wish I had splurged a bit more for a better fitting DJ.
They may be perfectly fine for someone who doesn’t care too deeply about a flowing music and good dance floor.
Any questions?

ayed as I asked. Our intro to the reception was a different song than the one I had picked, the song for the father daughter dance was faded out after I specifically asked the DJ not to do that, and he skipped over our first dance music by cutting out lyrics which is the opposite of what I asked, and our cake cutting music was not the song I picked out. I decided on 3 stars because he did get people out on the dance floor and remembered by bouquet toss when I didn’t.
