NewSwivel (Bill) showed up and was ready to throw an amazing dance party. I prepared him with some helpful information, and he was able to take my direction and make it come to life. The ceremony was well supported from a sound perspective, and the dance floor was the best space for all of our loved ones to connect and have a good time. There was never a dull moment on the dance floor. Bill took our feedback and was responsive to anything we may have needed. The highlight of the night were the rainbow up-lights that were the perfect backdrop for the evening. Appreciate Bill and his love for music - thanks for being there for us and throwing a damned good party! Thank you, thank you, thank you <3
Our favorite song of the evening chosen by Bill: Where You Are by John Summit, HAYLA

Matt did an incredible job during our ceremony! He was really easy to work with and I was able to get the "remix" sound I wanted during the grand introductions. I loved the lights and the fog machine! Thanks again, Matt, for a wonderful night!

I am so thankful God lead me to finding Newswivel for our wedding! Matt was so wonderful to work with and really excited our guests! I felt like a princess walking into the cheering crowd during the grand introduction! I couldn't have asked for a better start to our night!
I was worried about mic issues, but they ended up working properly. All of the music/announcements were done at the right times. Over all, amazing performance!

Everything about Matt’s service was perfection. He was incredibly easy to work with, and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

Very professional, ran the ceremony and reception very organized, had great communication with couple and event coordinator. Energy started off shaky, but once people got on the dance floor and comfortable with the music it got much better. They listened very well to us about what music we wanted played and didn’t want played.

Matthew was amazing all around from start to finish. Keeping communication open and allowing my wedding day come to life. Our wedding day was rainy which brought up concerns with many areas, sound and being able to continue with the ceremony a reception outside included, but Matthew put me at ease and we were able to continue our wedding plans despite the rain. Matthew was professional and a great MC throughout the night. The dance floor was packed all night and everyone had an amazing time. I would recommend New Swivel over and over again.

From the day we contacted NewSwivel to be our DJ’s they have been nothing but professional and extremely knowledgeable and pumped for our wedding! When I tell you they had everyone dancing, whether inside our venue or outside on the patio, they had the party going till the very end! They played every millennials dream song! We had so much fun! I highly highly recommend this DJ group!! You will NOT be disappointed!

They did a wonderful job with everything. We asked them to play a song for everybody in our wedding party and they did a mix for each one of them. Planning with us before the event to make sure everything went smooth. We didn’t want the traditional songs and they stuck to our playlist. Also, threw in a few great songs that got everyone on the dance floor. Our guests loved the fog machines. Thanks Matt and Bill!

Listened to the vibes we were trying to match for each point from ceremony to entrances to reception and followed it to a T. Didn't have to worry about anything they kept the party going, took requests, and everyone had an awesome time all night because of NewSwivel.
Not on NewSwivel's part -- we weren't able to have a rehearsal at the venue but we should have done one more stand up mic or lapel mic for the ceremony with the various readers and the vow exchange but I didn't know and didn't ask -- you can't be awesome DJs AND Mindreaders too right?!?!
Vendor response 12/01/2023
Thanks again Meghan! We love doing weddings from people in Chicago. You're always a blast....
Hope to see you around South Haven some time and grab a beer.

There were a few things we were disappointed in with the NewSwivel DJs on our wedding day. When we had initially reached out we were under the impression that there would only be one of the pair DJing for the wedding. However, when we joined a call two weeks prior to the date, it was mentioned that both would be there and one would be the emcee. During the ceremony, the emcee sat in the front row wearing a hoodie which felt unprofessional and distracting. During the ceremony the mics kept cutting in and out to the point where it would've just been better without them. The speakers were also too close and again felt like a distraction all elements taking away from the intimate moment we were looking for. There were playlists that were curated for specific parts of the evening; pre-ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing which were not followed. We didn't expect them to play the playlists in their entirety just wanted the vibe from the specific types of music and that did not happen. At the beginning of the reception the emcee did not announce the wedding party as we had asked, and completely left out a member of the party. Lastly, and the biggest issue, was that they played the song that should've been reserved for the mother son dance on repeat (about 3x in a row) just moments before we started the couples first dance. All together we were fairly disappointed with the overall experience with NewSwivel.

ur wedding was cold and outside in October. Everything else has been addressed on our side by our team. I apologize that things didn't go your way that night and errors with all your services seemed to compound. Your guests seemed to enjoy themselves and so did we. Thanks for your review.

Matt and Bill were awesome and went above and beyond to make sure the music was perfect for our special day! They did our ceremony and reception music, and they did an awesome job even though we were running behind schedule for unlocking the ceremony venue and so they didn’t have much time to set up. They were fun to work with and very patient with us - we had a few last-minute music changes that they made for us without any issue. They also did videography for our ceremony and reception and were really professional about making sure that both the music and videography were simultaneously well done and professionally attended to. Our guests REALLY loved their photo booth as well! It was really cool and a lot of fun!
