We cannot recommend Chase enough. He is so personable and made our wedding day an absolute dream. He listened to our requests and found a way to combine so many of our music tastes...
/genres together. We partied hard the entire time. There wasn’t a single moment where someone wasn’t on the dance floor having a good time. He ensured our drinks were always full and is the reason our wedding was such a blast. Chase you are AMAZING.
DJs Jesse and Blake DJ’d my wedding in August, and I absolutely loved working with them! I also own a wedding coordination business and get to work with JM3 DJs often, so when it c...
ame time to choose a DJ for my own wedding, I already knew I wanted them!
They are incredibly responsive, organized, professional, and, most importantly, SO good at keeping the dance floor packed! They are so much fun to work with, and I love their energy and style. They did an amazing job reading the crowd and keeping everyone engaged and having a great time throughout the night.
We did have a small issue with the microphone sounding a little rough at the beginning of our reception, but they fixed the problem very quickly, and everything sounded great for the rest of the evening. I really appreciated how quickly they handled it without letting it impact the rest of the night.
After working with JM3 at so many weddings, I was so excited to have them at my own, and they absolutely delivered! I would highly recommend DJ Jesse, DJ Blake, and the entire JM3 team to anyone looking for a fun, professional, and reliable DJ for their wedding or event!!
Chase is worth absolutely every single penny! I would highly recommend him for every wedding in Central Iowa. I heard from multiple people that they’ve been to a dozen weddings in ...
the last year and the party atmosphere he created was second to none.
The only downside is you never want to leave the dance floor during your wedding to grab desserts or visit the bar
As a DJ myself, picking the right DJ was very important to me. I couldn’t have been happier with my selection. ShaVierre was great to work with in the planning stages and when the ...
day came she lit the dance floor up! We danced all night to a wide variety of songs! ShaVierre really knew how to keep it fun and the transitions were on point. Many people have told me “that was the most active dance floor I can remember at a wedding”…
We were thrilled to work with JM3 DJs and specifically ShaVierre for our wedding. You won’t regret choosing them as they are legitimately one of the best around
We loved working with JM3DJS! They did our June 2026 wedding (both ceremony and reception) and we had a great time! Chase (not the owner as there are 2 Chase’s!) was so kind and li...
stened to our requests. No down time or lulls in the music throughout the night. We were able to share some Spotify playlists I made as inspiration and he nailed it. Multiple guests commented on the quality of the sound at both the ceremony and the reception. People were on the dance floor all night. We loved working with them!
DJ Sha’Vierre was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful in the last bit of planning and made sure we got exactly what we were wanting. We initially were not going to be at cocktai...
l hour because that is tradition but when we mentioned we would like to see our guests and enjoy the appetizers she made it happen and we still got our grand entrance. I cannot say enough how grateful we are for everything she did. She played a wide range of music getting everyone involved from the kids to the grandparents. We had some requests and she made it work and everyone kept saying how amazing she was and the vibes were immaculate!
We hired Sha’Vierre from JM3 DJs to DJ our wedding. She was fantastic. She had the biggest positive impact on our wedding reception out of everyone there. My wife attended a weddin...
g years ago where Shavierre DJ’ed. My wife was so impressed and held on to her card for years, knowing she wanted Shav to do our wedding as well. She was the only DJ we looked at and the first vendor we booked. We called a few times before the wedding to get to know each other and go over song choices for the whole day. She did the music for the ceremony and the reception. She even created a couple custom edits. She was the MC for the night, including doing intros, announcements, and the music, and had a great control over the guests. She knew how to keep the crowd having fun the entire night and played some great music. She also checked in on us personally to make sure we were having fun. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ than Sha’Vierre!
Chase from JM3 DJs was amazing! He turned our wedding reception into the dance party I was dreaming off! He was so great to work with throughout the wedding planning, and his syste...
m is super easy to use so he knows exactly what kind of music you want. Our family and friends were blown away! SO happy he does weddings in St. Louis, MO!
We originally chose JM3 to DJ our wedding based on a recommendation from our venue, Bash, which we also highly recommend. From the moment Brad found out how nerdy we were, he was c...
homping at the bit to make our day absolutely perfect, and I can say with full confidence that he did just that.
Brad helped with music during both the ceremony and the reception and was incredibly organized. We had two calls with him ahead of time to plan everything. A lot of our panic came from not knowing how the music would all work, but Brad eased all of our concerns and made the whole process stress-free.
He put together an insanely good mix that kept our moshing, dance-crazy crowd going all night long. He even went above and beyond by helping us run a murder mystery during the reception, adding a unique and unforgettable touch to the evening.
I seriously can’t recommend Brad enough. He took the party to the next level and even joined us for a drink after the celebration. 10/10 all around.
Hiring JM3 DJs for our wedding was the best decision ever! We went with Brad and have zero regrets! We are very particular with our music and everything went exactly how we wanted....
Brad made sure to check in with us throughout the day which we really appreciated! He made every request we had happen and with enthusiasm. The dance floor was full the entire night and the guests didn't want the reception to end! Brad really kept the vibes up the whole time. I would recommend JM3 DJs to everyone!!
Chase is not only super talented and amazing at his craft but he’s also professional, organized and amazing to work with! I had so many compliments about his music selections and I...
couldn’t have asked for a better night thanks to him. By far the best wedding dj I’ve ever experienced and I would recommend to anyone!!
INVEST in JM3 DJ's for your wedding or big event!!!! Chase was amazing to work with. He was incredibly professional and fun! My wedding planner recommended JM3 DJ's & Productions a...
nd it was one of our best investments we made for our wedding! Chase kept up the energy, had our guests dancing all night, played a great variety of our music we wanted, and it was all worth it. He made sure to go over our playlists, first dance songs, and if we needed help with anything or recommendations, he was always helpful with answering any questions or concerns! The vibe he brings is like no other! I can not say enough great things about JM3. My guests raved about how good our DJ was and how they wanted him for their own weddings in the future! Not only did we get a phenomenal DJ, our package included uplighting and a selfie station which all of our guests enjoyed! Music truly makes a wedding an unforgettable party, and I would give JM3 & Chase a solid 10/10 stars all the way around. Thank you so much for making our wedding the best night of our lives!
Jesse was a wonderful DJ. He kept the crowd engaged and there was not a single time our dance floor was empty. He was sure to play the music my husband and I had requested prior to...
the day of. Jesse was sure to play old music and new music to appeal to all the guests we had. We can’t thank him enough for his positive energy and professionalism during our reception. Thank you Jesse!
Chase is absolutely amazing to work with! I have done a couple weddings with him (I’m a photographer) & his communication & skill are top notch! He has been a part of my favorites ...
dance floors because he does such a great job bringing energy to the dance floor & going with the flow of your wedding day. Could not recommend him more!
