Masen was such an amazing DJ!! From the start, planning was a super smooth process - Masen was straightforward and easy to work with, and even had a tracker that let us check which songs we had chosen for the entire day. On the day of, he did a...
fantastic job wrangling our guests and making sure everything went smoothly. And the dance party? Epic. It all started with my husband’s first dance with his mom (a surprise break dance) which Masen had created a specialty remix for. Then, we had a number of crazy fun elements that he curated just for us, like an epic dance competition that was one of my favorite parts of the wedding, period. Everyone was on their feet dancing and having a blast up until the end of the night. Masen is a true professional. Hire him!!

DJ Masen ensured that our wedding was a party to remember. At our consultation our biggest concern was making sure that everyone had fun, we basically wanted a huge party after being separated from friends and family over the past year. I don’t...

When I began looking for a DJ, my first stop was to LaughingGravy.com and I didn't look at a single DJ after that. I was so wow'd by their website, I HAD to reach out. Once I did, I knew I would do whatever it took, pay whatever the price (whic...
h was incredibly reasonable, by the way), to have a Laughing Gravy DJ. Every step of the way, DJ Masen was confident, open/flexible, understanding, and supportive. Even with a small wedding (60 people), Masen made sure there was never a shortage of people on the dance floor. We had so many compliments on the music, and he made sure to play the songs that were important to us as a couple. Masen was always prepared with questions and a note pad to make sure everyone was on the same page and nothing was missed. Of all the stress involved with planning a wedding, our DJ was always the easiest part. Masen clearly has loads of experience, is very professional, and is such a kind, fun man. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Masen and Laughing Gravy.

Masen was incredible through the entire experience! We had reached out to him a year before our wedding and he was always so responsive with any questions we had during that year. He was also very happy playing the kind of music we liked. He pl...
ayed every song we asked him to play and kept the vibe of the wedding absolutely perfect. We had primarily hired a DJ for the 'mcee' part, and he did not disappoint in this area. He kept the flow of the entire wedding moving and was great at keeping our party organized from one section at a time - ceremony to cocktail hour, dinner to toasts, etc. They were affordable for all the services provided as well. I would highly recommend Laughing Gravy and Masen to anyone and everyone. He helped make our day absolutely special and you won't be disappointed.

We can't say enough about how happy we were with our DJ, Malcolm!! He is seriously a life saver! He is part DJ and part wedding planner! He was so helpful and knowledgeable and helped us with so much more than a DJ normally does! We also found ...
out after the wedding that he had accidentally booked our wedding on his daughters graduation, and being a man of his word, he didn't cancel on us! You can tell he truly cares about everyone having a good time. At one point during pictures after the ceremony, my cake was taking a lean, so he found a very nonchalant way to have us cut our cake and then head back out to finish pictures. He made it seem like no big deal at all and everything went on smoothly. I can't tell you how many compliments we got about him too. He had so many great things to incorporate into our wedding (the shoe game was my favorite and a guest favorite as well!). So we want to thank you Malcolm for making our wedding so special and something we will never forget!

My guests can't stop raving about our DJ, and how he absolutely made our wedding!!

Overall, we were very happy with our decision to use them for our ceremony/reception music at our wedding, but we did experience a few small hiccups along the way. We were reassigned a DJ twice in the year leading up to our wedding due to sche...
dule conflicts with the DJs. My husband and I totally understand that those things just happen but I will admit it did add unnecessary stress as we started to wonder if it would happen again right before the wedding.
Thankfully it didn't and we ended up working with a great DJ (Austin). He happily worked with all of our requests and did a great job keeping the energy up at our reception. All of our guests were having a blast on the dance floor all thanks to his music choices and MCing.

To those couples trying to put all the pieces in place for a successful wedding and reception, don't forget a DJ. I never realized until my daughters recent wedding what a difference a DJ could make. Masen Christiansen from Laughing Gravy exc...
eeded all our expectations and turned our reception into the social even of the year! Before the event, Masen met with the bride and groom and went over every critical piece of the evening making sure that it was exactly what they had envisioned and fit their personalities and preferences. He then orchestrated, and directed the evening in a way that produced the ultimate celebration and power packed party. He involved everyone and brought the entire wedding party together to celebrate, let loose an enjoy the evening. So many of our guests said that they had never had so much fun at a reception. Masen took charge and made things happen. He was so professional and knew exactly how to work the crowd, pull people together and make that special wedding day magic. As the Mother of the Bride, I would highly recommend him. Being old school, I never thought that a DJ was a necessity at a wedding. I can now honestly say that I would never have a wedding without one. Take my advice, A DJ is more important and critical than a wedding planner. It was an event that I will never forget thanks to Masen.

We were at first very excited to be working with Laughing Gravy DJ, as they were recommended to us by our reception/ceremony venue. The specific DJ we were paired with, however, didn’t seem to be the best fit for us in hindsight. Bryce did a fa...
irly good job, however we were not impressed with the level of professionalism that Bryce showed throughout our time working with him. Additionally, he did forget a couple of the things that we asked him to include or do on our wedding day. Nothing was earth-shattering, however we did expect more. He also played slightly more older songs and less modern pop music than we would prefer. We don’t feel he took the time to get to know us as a couple, therefore what was delivered wasn’t what we would have wanted. That being said, people did dance and have a good time, and he did emcee very well. All in all, he did an adequate job.

We were satisfied with our DJ's service. He was entertaining (our guests loved him) and helped guide the crowed through the evenings events. He had great insight and helped us find the perfect ceremony music etc. However, all this positive was ...
overshadowed by an EXTREMELY poor office staff. We couldn't get receipts, invoices, confirmations etc. They never kept track of who was supposed to be our DJ so we had to attend several extra meetings. We really weren't sure if someone was going to show up the day of due to the disorganization. In the last month prior to our event, the owner did step in to help straighten things out though.

I cannot recommend Durven highly enough! We hired Laughing Gravy to do sound & music for our ceremony plus dinner music and dancing. He also helped emcee the evening, which was a bigger deal than I had previously realized. It was so nice...
to have someone to handle the details of giving instructions and keeping things moving etc. Durven is a super good-natured, fun guy and everyone who came really enjoyed the dancing.
Some comments...
"I could hear the music at the ceremony perfectly."
"We want to hire Durven for our block party!"
"That was the most fun I have had at a wedding!"
and my mother, who swore she would not feel comfortable dancing ("Please do not ask me to dance!"), was out there dancing.
We didn't get to meet Durven until the week of our wedding, because we live in California, but he was able to accomodate all of our requests. We added the extra lighting option, which turned out to be a lot of fun.
As an added note, I myself am a reluctant dancer but I couldn't get enough. I would highly recommend Durven of Laughing Gravy!! You can't go wrong.
