Garrett was wonderful to work with! He was able to take music from a YouTube video that I wanted as well as shorten a song for our first dance. He made the time to call me a couple weeks before the big day and ran through the plan start to finish and the day went flawlessly. He came and set up early and played music that kept us dancing! Thank you Garrett for an unforgettable day!

Garrett was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. He was punctual, communicative, and followed our every wish. We had a violin player for our ceremony and a guitar player during the reception and he was very cooperative and helpful to ensure all things went successful. Among everything else, he looked like he wanted to be there and was super sweet to all of my guests. I am absolutely blessed to have had him and would 100% recommend him!

Reed was great!! He had a meeting with us before to go over all the details and playlist, he followed up with me on any questions or things we hadn’t yet decided, and he did a fantastic job for the wedding!

Knoxville DJ was great to work with for our wedding. He met with us before the wedding to learn about our tastes and how the day was going to go. He was extremely professional and played great music that fit our vibe. We'd absolutely recommend this company again!

We hired Knoxville DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception, and we couldn’t recommend him enough! He was easy to communicate with, we had a call to go over our music preferences and he had some great suggestions as well, but our dance floor was never empty! We also added the Photo Booth and our guests LOVED it!

We have nothing but awesome things to say about Garrett with Knoxville DJ! He was so easy to work with and took the time to get to know us and the vibe we were wanting to go with for our wedding. He was able to access every version of every song that was specifically requested and was able to curate playlists around songs we liked for specific parts of the evening. He came prepared with plenty of extension cords and all necessary equipment. He has a great personality and kept the flow of the night moving which was super helpful since we did not have a wedding planner. From start to finish, he was awesome to work with. We highly recommend him to DJ any event!

Perfection! I cannot believe we got a DJ this good with those prices. Garrett made everything easy and I feel like my communication skills probably made things tough for him but he still knocked it out of the park. My mother mentioned how he felt like another member of the family as opposed to a vendor and I couldn’t agree more. My family, especially my parents, loves to dance and it’s safe to say the music was their favorite part of the whole wedding. My sister is a wedding photographer and she mentioned how our DJ was the first DJ she’d seen to really work at entertaining everyone and reading the room. We had so much fun at our wedding, words cannot express, and Knoxville DJ played an enormous role in that. Seriously, you will be so happy you chose them for your wedding or any DJ needs!!

Knox DJ really made me our wedding special! They played all the songs we discussed in advance and they were thorough in their preparation with us. The day of was so smooth and they showed up 1-2 hours earlier than scheduled. They were overall really prepared and had everybody dancing SO much. Thanks Garrett and everybody at Knox DJ

Highly recommend working with Knoxville DJ! Garrett made our day so fun and our guests loved him. Very easy to communicate with and played great music based off of the music we told him we like. He even played Rocky Top for us twice since we missed it the first time for photos.

Garrett from Knoxville DJ was incredible. I was able to send exactly the songs I wanted, and he filled in perfectly with his expert choices as well. It was a hot day at my outdoor wedding, so I was concerned people might not dance alot...but Garrett delivered the party! Everyone I talked to said it was the most fun and the most they have danced at any wedding they'd been to! He was flexible, professional, seamless, and fit the budget too. I highly recommend!!
