Jason was wonderful!! He knows how to keep guests on the dance floor having a good time! Highly highly recommend!!
Honestly, when we first met Jason, we loved him. However, he then ghosted us for a while. I should have took that as a sign, but our photographer said he was the best and was aweso...
me. He reached out to him, got us a meeting, Jason apologized (and he was convincing), gave us a discount, and we moved forward. He has a great personality so we fell for it. I was willing to put that behind us as long as our wedding day went great. On our wedding day, our guests said they couldn’t hear well. My guests said they couldn’t hear the speeches at all, and Jason said he would work at keeping people on the dance floor…. That didn’t happen. Granted, that may not have been his fault, as it was a beautiful day outside, and our venue was gorgeous. I’m not one to write bad reviews, but in my contract I get all the pictures from the photo booth digitally. Since our wedding, I have reached out >7 times over this past YEAR, and I have yet to hear from him. I want my pictures from the photo booth, as it’s the only picture I got in front of my photo display. He wasn’t cheap (even with the discount), and he just doesn’t respond to you. As a bride, you want your DJ to be excited to work with you, and he just doesn’t respond. After our wedding, even after calling, emailing, and texting him, he hasn’t responded once, and it’s been a year. Run don’t walk away from him and find someone who is excited to work with you and lives up to their word.
Overall, I was pleased with this vendor as they were extremely affordable and kept people on the dance floor all night (which is the ultimate goal!). However I think it's important...
to note a few red flags for fellow brides and grooms. Jason, the owner, was incredibly slow in responding to my emails, calls, and texts. Most times, it took me reaching out 3-4 times before he would respond. He even missed our 1st in-person meetup saying he forgot. This all caused unnecessary stress leading up to our wedding that could have easily been avoided. The night of the wedding, his team played a well-rounded playlist and Jason, as the MC, kept everything on schedule, however, many songs on our must-do list were not played even though several on our maybe list were. And even though I didn't notice, I was told several guests commented on how loud the music was and they wished it could have been a little quieter. Again, overall their main goal was achieved but little details made the process a little stressful.
We could not have been more pleased with Jason and Kore. The energy they brought to the wedding as well as the great music was amazing. My daughters wedding was reduced to 25 du...
e to COVID, but no worries they had everyone dancing and enjoying themselves. Jason did an excellent job as master of ceremonies and Kore kept the music lively and fun. No need to look any further, these are the guys you need to hire, you will not be sorry.
If you’re envisioning a high energy atmosphere and an extraordinary guest experience, you need to hire Music in Motion for your wedding! All of their services are ON POINT- from th...
e reception music selections/mixes, glowing up-lighting, Magic Mirror Photos and Jason’s commanding MC voice. We are deeply impressed with the quality of service we received! Jeremy and I live in Washington DC, and had to plan our Louisville, KY wedding from long distance. Jason Shields eased our minds with his professionalism and talent. He listened to our song requests, and also surprised us with a few unexpected songs as well. Jason not only created an AMAZING dance fiesta for our guests, but also created a romantic, sentimental atmosphere for our wedding ceremony as well. He even attended our ceremony rehearsal to ensure all details were in order. Jeremy and I have nothing but thanks and praise for Jason and his team!
First off l was so stressed that morning but when Jason called me to go over things all he kept telling me is that every thing was going to be wonderful and to just enjoy my daught...
ers wedding. He was so right. When we got to the reception he had greeted people that were early and made them feel welcome until we had arrived. He was so upbeat and fun. People of all ages were having such a great time dancing to all kinds of music. I would highly recommend Music in Motion to everyone.
Jason came in and set up a day early with the latest sound technology. He was very enthusiastic and energetic throughout the whole reception. He kept the dance floor full all nig...
ht. He was great. Couldn't ask for anything more. He made our daughter's wedding day even more memorable.
Jason was an incredible MC and DJ all the way through! He met with us three times BEFORE our wedding to make sure everything was on the up and up, and worked with us in the midst o...
f our chaos to ensure things ran smoothly. He even wore the Greatest Showman outfit one of my groomsmen bought me as a gimmick! It went perfectly with our theme for the evening. What a gift! He's a good man of prayer, and I felt he really connected with us on that level of faith. We felt drawn to him from the moment of that White Rose Wedding Show @ the Breckenridge--such a chance meeting, and all we were looking at was a photo booth! He and his wife were wonderful to work with, and they really made the evening fun for our families.
I would definitely recommend him to anyone far and wide looking for a great evening celebrating their special day! I was very impressed with his sense of professionalism concerning my uncle, who was also a DJ, and I absolutely LOVED the photo booth. Everyone had a great time with it, and the pictures were phenomenal. We were very happy to have received all the pictures the night OF (knowing that kindof stuff can definitely get lost in the shuffle!)
I am happy to have been able to afford Music in Motion for our big day because it was certainly worth it! My one recommendation if at all possible would be to consider payment plans in the future for couples who might not be able to afford it in the moment because getting a good DJ I think is critical to a beautiful and successful evening.
Thank you all for everything! Crystal and I are happy to have met you and know you.
In Christ,
John & Crystal Sohl
Jason made the night of life absolutely perfect! I booked him for my wedding back in September and he made my night complete! My guest was there till the last dance. Our family and...
guest were so impressed with him. I had people coming up too before the night was up asking who he was and that they wanted to book him for their events! Thank you Music in Motion for making my wedding day the best!
Jason was absolutely the best DJ for us! The music and getting everyone out on the dance floor was definitely our top wedding priority. Jason was so attentive throughout the planni...
ng process and was very keen on getting to know our musical style. I was so pleased with how much time he spent getting to know us prior to the wedding. He seemed very invested, and I could tell he loves what he does. He made our wedding night a blast! We danced the night away just as we envisioned. We loved how he joined in the fun too, and rocked a pair of pink sunglasses we passed out of the dance floor. Highly recommend you go with him!
Jason was great to work with from our beginning meeting at Starbucks from our final dance at our wedding! Jason kept our guests dancing and allowed everyone to enjoy the night! We ...
received many high compliments about Jason from our guests and would recommend him to any couple. One thing I loved about Jason was that he remembered the little details from our first conversation that he incorporated into our reception. Jason was professional and a lot of fun as we danced the night away, I never wanted it to end!
Music in Motion was amazing! We worked with Jason Shields and he delivered! We had several of our guests come up to us after the wedding and talk about how great our DJ was! Jason ...
has an amazing DJ voice. This is one of the first things we noticed when we first met him. We did not plan every little song throughout the reception as we could trust Jason in making the right decision and he absolutely did! He was able to transition cocktail hour to dinner to dancing very easily and provide amazing and appropriate music throughout! We also chose to have a photo booth. We chose to use the new mirror photo booths and our guests absolutely LOVED it! There wasn't a time during the reception where there wasn't someone there. I 1000% recommend Jason with Music in Motion!
You will not find a better DJ than Jason!!! He LOVES what he does and it shows. Jason really desires to understand your vision for your wedding day & he makes sure to do everything...
he can to make it perfect! He takes the time to listen and spent hours on the phone with me planning the day and flow of our reception. Jason made a mash up for our surprise father daughter dance, drove 2 hours away for the rehearsal dinner to walk through everything & time the ceremony music, and kept our guests on the dance floor all night...he goes above and beyond for his clients!!!! He had full control of the room the entire night and I can't think of one thing that didn't flow smoothly!! He is incredible. All night long everyone was commenting on how it was the most fun reception they had ever been to. Choose Jason Shields!! You absolutely will not regret it.
I can't say enough about Jason and his excellent performance. His professionalism and work ethic are second to none, and I promise that you won't find anyone better! His library i...
s endless, and our dance floor was still jumping when the venue told us it was time to go!
Jason has the experience in the industry make him the top choice to DJ your big day. He takes the time to understand the wants and needs of the bride and groom and builds a program around them. He also understands what makes a wedding ceremony and reception great, and knows how to create lasting memories with you and your family.
If Music In Motion is available for your big day, book them now!
As a bride who was planning our whole entire wedding from out of state, I was cautious when booking all of my vendors. But it only took one phone call for me to know that Jason was...
the DJ we needed. I am telling you all - HE IS SO ORGANIZED. He made everything leading up to our big day so easy and seamless. On our big day, not ONE person left the dance floor, and people are still raving over how much fun they had. I really can’t say thank you enough to Jason. He made our day absolutely wonderful and I would book him 1000 times over.
Jason is wonderful!! He is awesome at what he does & help will make your special day perfect! He did the ceremony and reception music for my wedding & it couldn’t have been better....
Jason helped turn my reception into the ultimate party and it was just as I envisioned- the dance floor was packed the entire night. He also {secretly} helped my sister(and maid of honor) cut & mix songs together to create the BEST rap/toast ever!! I would HIGHLY recommended Jason & Music in Motion if you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about his work.
We booked Jason with Music in Motion after my daughter, Olivia, met him at a wedding show. She came home from the show so excited and adamant that she had to have Jason be a part ...
of her wedding.
Jason met with us at least twice before the wedding and he was always available, if needed, by phone.
Jason has years of experience, is warm and personable, and genuinely wants to make your special event memorable! We had an absolute blast at our wedding thanks to Jason !!!
Jason and Leah truly helped make our wedding day special. The numerous years of experience really show. They were always professional, respectful of our vision, and beyond friendly...
, willing to work with us and make recommendations. From the beginning, it was clear that their focus was our happiness and the happiness of our guests. Our reception was an absolute blast! The display was classy, including a personalized monogram. They were flexible with the schedule but kept everything running smoothly. Not to mention, our guests really enjoyed the mirrorbooth! It was a fun alternative to a photobooth that let our guests take home a nice keepsake plus we really enjoyed seeing all the photos taken that night. We considered other DJs that were a bit cheaper but we are so glad we went with Music in Motion, they are worth every penny.
Had an absolutely tremendous experience with Jason Shields and Music in Motion. He was very easy to work with and was always very responsive to emails. Always stated that his ma...
in goal (which was ours as well) was for everyone at our wedding to have a great time and he definitely achieved that goal. We talked with multiple guests after the wedding and they all said they had an awesome time. He was well worth every dollar. We did use the package that included the "photo booth" mirror, which was another great hit.
Ultimately, we really wanted a DJ and MC that would help keep things going and exciting throughout the night after the ceremony and Jason did a great job with that. We would highly recommend him to any couples planning a wedding or event needing a DJ/MC.
Jason Shields with Music in Motion is the absolute best! If you’re looking for someone who listens to your every want and need and keeps your guests on the dance floor, you want th...
is guy! Our dance floor was packed until we were forced out of our venue. Music is very important to my husband and I and he nailed it. He was there every step of the way from rehearsal, ceremony, to the very end of the reception!
Not only did his company keep the party going with the music but we also used their mirror photo booth which was a crowd pleaser! It had so many fun options. Leah made sure the mirror photo booth ran smoothly and everyone knew how to use it! It was a fantastic addition to our wedding! Everyone should hire Music in Motion!

m the very beginning Jason put us on track to make our night magical, and was there with guidance the entire way. This man is the purest form of a professional and will not steer you in the wrong direction. Our wedding was one for the books. Not a single person was sitting in their seat bored the entire dance floor was packed and it stayed packed till the night was over. Since the wedding night our friends have already booked him for other events and people have asked me for CDs of our playlist. This is a true testimony to how amazing our night was. From the bottom of our hearts thank you for making our wedding the best night of our lives.

d and making sure the evening goes smoothly. He had an excellent selection of music that appealed to every one of our guests from the youngest to the oldest. He has a money-back guarantee which seemed odd at first, but it's evident that he loves his job and wants to make sure you are completely satisfied with the evening. We will keep Jason in mind for all of our future events.
Jason with Music In Motion is amazing! We met with several djs and he was the only one that offered to meet us at our venue. He was easy to get in contact with prior to our wedding...
and came to the rehearsal in order to make sure he was prepared. He kept everything running smoothly for our ceremony and reception. The music selection was great and we had multiple people comment on how much they enjoyed the variety of songs. Also, he stayed late and didn’t charge anything extra. Definitely one of our top vendors and I would highly recommend to everyone!
Jason with Music In Motion was awesome!! It felt like I had a DJ and coordinator in one. He had his stuff together more than me! Haha. He answered any questions I had fully, and ...
even had suggestions to help make my special day run as smooth as possible. I immediately felt better about the flow of things once I met with him right before the wedding. Plus, his voice is amazing!! I would highly reccomend their company (and Jason) to anyone I know! Thank you so much Jason!!!

I highly recommend MIM. Alex did an incredible job scouting out the crowd, being flexible, and choosing the music that kept the guests dancing all night long. I had chosen music...
but was stunned and amazed that Alex found out the older crowd loved Polka music (which I never would have imagined) and picked Polka songs that even got the teens and kids dancing. Alex really made this already perfect wedding even better. I truly appreciated Mike's help as well throughout the process and the tools he provided through a personalized wedding website.
