Booked the Dancing on the cloud service. Was more like a dancing on the very light fog service for $600. Do not recommend

inty of rain and an outdoor setup, and handled everything professionally and seamlessly.
Our guests absolutely loved the music, and the dance floor was packed all night. Fiona did an amazing job taking requests and keeping everyone engaged while still matching the vibe we wanted. Beyond the music, she also helped coordinate the flow of the day and made everything run smoothly, which took so much stress off of us.
We are so grateful for all of her hard work and highly recommend Lightwave entertainment and Fiona to anyone looking for a wedding DJ who is organized, professional, flexible, and truly cares about making your day perfect!

DJ Fiona was an absolute pleasure to work with and was such a huge help throughout the day. When we ran into a few last-minute timeline changes, she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She's a great announcer and she brought so much energy to the celebration!
The ceremony sound package was perfect for our outdoor venue. The technicians did an excellent job, and our officiant, musicians, and the two of us were heard loud and clear!
We truly can’t recommend Lightwave enough!

Bryanna was very communicative and answered any question I had. This team made me feel confident in their abilities to deliver exactly what I wanted, and it definitely lessened my stress levels to trust they had everything handled. I love that I was able to receive a scrapbook with copies of each photo strip with personalized notes from my guests. Hector also gave me a chance to run the DJ booth, lol. Great team that helped me have a fun night to remember!
Wonderful experience with Lightwave! Not only accommodating but extremely helpful and overall cared to ensure our day is spectacular! Book them for your day!!

Alyssa has the greatest energy! You want her at your event!
Lightwave completely transformed our wedding reception hall and made it a night to remember! We chose the “Light Your Night” package, textured light, Pin Spot, abd Photo Booth with...
greenery backdrop. The uplight and textured light made the hall look so beautiful and eye catching. The pin spots helped accent all of our details from centerpieces, guest books, wedding cake, and so much more! The custom monogram really put the finishing touch on our space. DJ Alyssa was fantastic and kept our guests entertained all night! The Photo Booth was a huge hit with our guests and the “photo guestbook” was such a wonderful gift to take with us. The whole crew at Lightwave were so professional, flexible, and helpful in making our big day perfect. I cannot thank Bry, Hecky, and DJ Alyssa enough!! I would recommend them over and over again for any event!

t people on the dance floor!! We had a lot of special songs and moments we requested and DJ Eddie didn’t skip a beat - he was on top of it!! They also supplied the photobooth and it was easily the best photo booth I’ve ever seen! I gave them our custom neon sign and they took care of hanging it and getting it setup! We already had friends reach out to us about using Lightwave for their upcoming weddings!
We used Lightwave Entertainment for our wedding reception a few weeks ago. The entire team was fantastic with capturing our vision for the venue. The uplighting truly highlighted t...
he beauty of the venue and DJ Eddie was super fun and kept everyone dancing the entire night.
Lightwave was even able to help us make the night extra special by accommodating a impromptu graduation ceremony for my youngest brother (and our groomsman) since his graduation commencement coincided with our wedding reception.
The dancing on a cloud effect for our first dance was perfect, and allowed our photographer to capture some incredible pictures.
Lightwave's team was excellent with communicating with us through the whole wedding planning process. Our reception was absolutely perfect. Thank you Lightwave!
Terrible experience. Despite months of planning, lighting was changed without my knowledge and DJ did not follow instructions on my wedding day. In fact, I don’t believe my instruc...
tions were communicated to her at all by Lightwave staff. DJ was rude to me (the bride), my sister (the maid of honor), and a member of my bridal party at my wedding. Then after this terrible experience on the day of my wedding, Lightwave refused the refund I requested. Although they did refund a smaller portion than I requested, they seemed more concerned with turning a profit and less concerned with the fact that their services were terrible. The only service that was good was the photo booth.
We had the pleasure of working with Frank and his team. Everyone was amazing, easy to work with, and very attentive. The lighting was incredible, the fog machine looked awesome, an...
d the music was fantastic!
We spoke to over a dozen different DJ's in the process and we chose Lightwave Entertainment; there was no doubt that they would be perfect. Highly recommend!
My husband and I were at a wedding recently and the lighting for the venue was beautifully set for a Halloween themed wedding. It matched the theme and really set the mood. The pho...
to booth was also a ton of fun and the employees working the booth were so friendly and nice 😊. The digital emblem above the brides and grooms table was fabulous and looked amazing. Very impressed with the professionalism of Lightwave Entertainment.
Lightwave Entertainment was an excellent choice for all my uplighting, ceiling decor needs! They transformed my dads utility barn into a true wedding venue. They set up around tabl...
es and chairs and a ton of people running in and out of the barn which was hectic! Frank is great with communicating via phone or email. Highly recommend these guys for your decor/lighting needs!
Professional, fun, organized, amazing people!
Lightwave Entertainment is managed and executed by a great group. Each member that attended our wedding was extremely easy to talk to,...
organized, and punctual. They provide amazing services within music, lighting, photo booth displays and many more. They didn't expect anything in return while being truly genuine in the couples and guests experience. I would highly recommend them for your next event!
Lightwave entertainment made our dreams become a reality! Frank, and his team were there with us for every step of our wedding planning! The team met us at our venue multiple times...
to plan for uplighting, electrical planning, location placements for equipment and lantern locations. They were willing to come to the rehearsal and play the music for us/ set up a day in advance! They made planning enjoyable and were so reassuring of our decisions! Communication between lightwave entertainment was outstanding and we are so happy we chose them to be apart of our wedding! They were not just a company we hired, they became our friends!
I hired this vendor for my daughter’s wedding 10-17-20 in Medina county. I couldn’t say anything more positive about hiring them for music, lights, and photo booth. All our guest...
had a ton of fun and I couldn’t have asked for more.
Frank was very attentive in making sure the night was going to run smoothly. He messaged and emailed with questions and making sure we didn’t need anything else from them on our end and to make sure everything was in place. I highly recommend them for your Wedding, Anniversary, or Amy personal party you want to kick up a few notches. They were awesome!
We had a great experience with light wave entertainment. We had no issues, good communication. Photo booth was great and a huge hit for our guests... if you are thinking about a ph...
oto both I for sure suggest adding that. Lighting was wonderful. Music was perfect. It was everything we could have asked for and then some. We also added a earlier time and added and took away songs with very short notice and they made it happen! They were so fun and easy to work with. 10/10 recommend.
Great Lakes Audio Visual was a great company to work with. Their booth and staff were both great!

I was not impressed with the specific DJ that was at a wedding I was in over the weekend. The Groom and Bride had specified that they did NOT want the bridal party introduced at th...
e reception "coupled up" as there were no partners in the wedding since there were males and females on the bride's side. (He was also asked not to do this by the bridal party as well.) When he explained to us the order, every two people were marked to be introduced with an "and" between them. He said he does it that way because that is how he is used to doing it. How about doing it like the couple you are working with has asked you to. Also maybe take some visual cues from the ceremony where you would have noticed NO ONE was walking together except the Groom and Bride. Also, stuff happens, but if you know your wireless mic only has a specific range why would you not let the people that are scheduled to speak know the best place to stand to avoid being cut out while speaking?
Daniel was great! Everyone loved the photo booth. It was a big hit at our wedding. The props were fun and it was really neat how everyone in the photo could keep a copy of the phot...
o strip, and then a copy was placed in a memory book for people to sign to give to me and my husband. We really enjoyed looking at the photos afterwards. My sister used GLAV for her high school graduation and that was a great time as well. I highly recommend them for any situation that might need a photo booth!

ng them for our DJ, Up Lighting, Photo Booth and Ceremony sound. They were very organized and made the whole process worry free. The DJ Was awesome and kept the whole party engaged and having a great time. The uplighting looked amazing and really added to the decorations, The photo booth was a fun addition that everyone young and old enjoyed using and taking home a keep sake from the wedding, and the ceremony sound system was clear and easy to hear everything that was being said during the beautiful ceremony.
All around awesome company and will suggest them to anyone that asks.
