Selective Sound Entertainment & Lighting

g into a new home and working before the wedding that he let us FaceTime him for our visit and it was perfect. We gave him a few songs that we wanted played but otherwise let him do his thing and everyone continues to tell us how great he was!! No one wanted to leave the dance floor. As far as the uplighting goes, selective sound made my reception venue look incredible and gave it such a warm romantic feeling! We couldn’t have been happier hiring selective sound & highly recommend Devin to anyone!

the bridal party and more importantly my entrance into our ceremony perfectly. He was very involved from the start and had great recommendations to make the evening fun. All of our friends and family had such a great time and we are so thankful he was our DJ!

for the band to play. Jay R sent me a long list of all the songs the band can play, and I picked out 8 must-play songs as well as over 20 "play if possible" songs. I was under the impression that the band would work them into the set list and I spent so much time deliberating on which songs to add to my list for the perfect night of music. I even made clear notes for which songs I wanted the band to play and which songs I wanted the DJ to play. Well, the band made absolutely zero effort to incorporate my "play if possible" songs, and instead, the only songs that I actually wanted to hear on my wedding were seven must play songs. I received NO communication indicating that the band would not be playing the songs in which I clearly marked BAND. You can imagine my shock and disappointment when on the day of my wedding I had to dance to songs I don't even know. What a waste of time. Why send the list of all the songs the band knows if they are not going to play them? To top things off, while the DJ was trying to solve this catastrophe a text popped up on his phone from JAY R saying "Let me guess... the band opened up the dance floor and the bride is upset because they're not playing her songs." How unprofessional Jay R. Clearly this issue has happened several times in the past since you were so able to "guess" what the problem was. How about a warning to not waste my time picking out my favorite songs? I also wish you reached out to me to apologize for your poor communication and lack of professionalism. In summary, my experience with Selective Sound Entertainment and specifically Jay R was my least favorite thing about my wedding. My advice for Jay R is to tell brides to pick 8 must play songs, and trust the band after that instead of making it seem like we have any say beyond that.

without a hitch and people were raving about how great the DJ was! The dance floor was packed all night and we were thrilled! Also his idea for a lottery ticket toss was amazing! Would recommend this company to anyone!!

out on the dance floor ALL night long. People continue to ask me who my DJ was because they all loved him. I can't thank them enough for helping my day run so smoothly!

eption music. We were SO happy with our DJ Devin at the wedding! He absolutely captured what we wanted and kept everyone on the dance floor the entire evening. We didn't want the night to end! The uplighting was beautiful and really made the reception hall look so elegant. I would highly recommend this company. They had the best prices as well for the services provided!

d the acoustics were horrific. You could not even understand the father of the bride speech. It was honestly so sad, and I felt awful. I am so elated to of been able to work with Marcus. He went above and beyond for me. He was always EXTREMELY responsive and could not have been more of a class act. His level of professionalism and wonderful service is what all DJ’s should aspire too. Furthermore, I personally feel that any DJ who is just starting out would be privileged to train under Marcus. Marcus is kind and makes you feel like an immediate friend. The level of engagement between him and the guests is off the charts. I am honored to say that Marcus Jordan was apart of the best day of my life and will recommend him, and SSE to any person who asks. It could not have been any more perfect.

and had answers for all of our questions. He even steered us away from adding on services to our order, which in turn meant less revenue for them. This just told me that this is a vendor that I can trust and that they truly have their clients at heart and not just making money. Once we officially hired them as our DJ, Devin Moore was provided as our formal DJ. Devin was incredible! We had an initial phone call with him to go over our plan as we got closer to our wedding date. We even had a happy hour meeting a couple weeks before just so we could meet in person and get a feel for each other. The day of the wedding, Devin was incredible and kept people on the dance floor ALL NIGHT LONG! The sound was great, the songs were great and the interaction with the crowd was impeccable. I strongly recommend Devin Moore and Selective Sound Entertainment for all of your entertainment needs!

drinks. He even did minor dry cleaning duties and cleaned up a stain on my husband's tux just minutes before the ceremony began!! I actively highly recommended Patrick to others. He made a stressful day significantly less stressful, and for that I am grateful. Five stars all the way.

ticular music preferences and Marcus did an excellent job honoring them as well as mixing in some great jams along the way to keep the dance floor crowded. Selective Sounds online system helped making planning super easy for us too. We loved working with Marcus and can't say enough good things about Selective Sound.

sponsive to all of our questions and requests, and executed flawlessly. Highly recommend if you’re doing your wedding at the Old Courthouse as they know the venue and the acoustics very well. Also, the additional uplighting made the beautiful space stand out even more. Highly recommend!

e songs we requested, but also knew exactly what to play to make sure that no one left the dance floor! DJ Rich made our wedding night truly unforgettable! I would highly recommend Select Sound for your wedding day!!

er, we have no idea the number of requests Marcus might have gotten and the music selection was great for us all night long.

was having SO much fun! It was a moment for me that I honestly had goosebumps and will never forget! My maiden name is also very hard to pronounce and Patrick practiced and nailed it the day of. Its not often that we can find people who can pronounce it so my parents and I truly appreciate it!! Thank you so much Patrick for all your help and all that you have done for us!! Keep doing what you're doing!! You're the best!! Oh we also had a Photobooth which was also crowded and fun! Was so much fun to get the picture scrapbook the next day. We have some pretty awesome pictures of everyone and is something we will definitely keep forever!!! Thank you, thank you!! Such an awesome keepsake for us!!

our number one priority and exceeded expectations. Using Jay R and Selective Sound for many events to come in the future.

also was very concerned and focused on how we were doing and our night was going -- always checking in to see if we needed anything/calm the nerves, etc. I cannot say enough about them and would recommend them a million times again to anyone and everyone!!

pt the dance floor alive all night and kept the party going from start to finish. Jay R was easy to communicate with and very responsive to email. Very early on he demonstrated his experience and was an easy choice for us. He understood the vibe we were going for and executed perfectly. We received lots of compliments from our guests on how great our DJ was! We would recommend Jay R to anyone!

communication and open to doing anything that would make our day more special! My husband and I both had some special and secret requests for songs (fake mess ups, etc), and he delivered perfectly! Also, our guests raved about how awesome he was. Our dance floor was packed from the moment music started until the wedding ended! DJ Marcus’ use of his turn tables was so unique and cool! We have never danced so much in our lives! The uplighting and monogram were also breathtaking! We will definitely be recommending Marcus to friends and family! Thank you very much, Marcus, for the amazing reception! You were truly a pleasure to work with!

heir legs are because we all danced the entire night ... every single song!! He played everything we asked for and he really did a great job of getting the crowd involved. He was very great about adding last minute changes as well. The night before the wedding I decided to do a brother sister dance and he responded within ten minutes. Throughout the entire process he was very easy to get in touch with and was always helpful when we needed suggestions/advice. So many people have been complimenting how fun the music was. Specifically they loved how he played “throwback” songs at the end of the night. It was perfect! I could not have asked for a better DJ. I highly recommend them for your wedding!

plighting went without a hitch. It really tied together our vision for our big day! Quality Service and a Responsive Team, not much more you can ask for!

LY how to play to the audience and keep the people dancing. Rich was extremely friendly and helpful throughout the entire process of wedding planning helping to keep us on track for the different decisions we needed to make as well. Would highly highly highly recommend this company for DJ, lighting and photo booth which all turned out amazing for us!

and letting everyone enjoy themselves which makes for a great evening! Jay R went above and beyond any expectations I could've imagined! My FATHER-IN-LAW was even out on the dance floor... And I know for all, that means absolutely nothing, but it meant the world to me. He's an older farmer who is set in his older ways and is not one who goes out of his way. But he was on the dance floor the night of my wedding, more than once might I add! It was a fantastic evening, Jay R read the crowd and played what he knew everyone would love. I can honestly say hands down, my reception met and exceeded every expectation I had. Jay R was organized, he had everything ready and at his finger tips. He knew what to say and how to say it. He was extremely pleasant to work with and he actually listened to what his customer wanted. Brilliant is all I have to say about Jay R and Selective Sound Entertainment! I loved every second of that night and I have this team to thank for that!

Truly thankful for all the hard work.

! I rarely left the dance floor the entire night!

and getting information to the DJ easy. Our actual DJ was Marcus and he was awesome! We got to meet with him before the wedding which was really important to us. We told him what kinds of music we wanted played and what to stay away from, and he really delivered on our wedding day. There was not one song played that I didn't like the entire night. He is very talented, kept our guests on the dance floor, and kept the reception running smoothly. I really appreciated his opinions and insight while we were planning the timeline of the reception and running different ideas past him. I would highly recommend Selective Sound!

at with helping where needed. He was completely set up, including up-lighting around the reception area, before I even knew he was there. He goes out of his way to pick up tasks/duties/whatever he can to alleviate the typical wedding day stress. We had numerous guests with music/DJ/performance backgrounds and several came up to us afterwards and mentioned he was the best DJ they've ever experienced. We can't thank Patrick enough for making our day even more special! He is great!

aid it would. The attention to detail for a three part wedding ceremony to reception was spot on. Thank you ! I know it sounds silly, but thanks for answering texts and emails EVERY time! No matter if it was lengthy or brief, made me feel that we were important to you.

ut when he is MCing. Selective Sound also has a detailed music list you fill out prior to the big day, which Dev followed well. The only issue is that the communication from Selective Sound was lacking when our original DJ had to cancel due to a family event, and we found out late. However, Dev was a great replacement, so we were very happy. Overall, great experience.

J was Marcus J and he was AMAZING!! He was available for any questions or request we had leading up to our big day. The day of the wedding he made sure that everything was running smoothly and on time. He was a great MC and DJ. We got so many compliments on the music and his personality. I will be recomending them to everyone I know.

uested them. At the reception, there were so many unique little touches I hadn’t seen before, like having all the guests wave their napkins when we walked in and having the bridal party pairs choose individual songs for their entrances. It was very obvious that Patrick had paid attention during our conversations because the song choices were all just spot on for our crowd. He was a HUGE part of making our day everything we wanted! (I also have to say how much I appreciated all the Maroon 5, which was probably the most important request of all!)

R NEVER made me feel like anything was wrong. He made sure the day way perfect and that every detail was exactly the way I wanted! We also did our quarter for the ceremony and acoustic player for our cocktail hour. Both did an incredible job! He was 100% down to earth and honest. He tells it like it is. Planning a wedding is a TON of decisions so I appreciated my vendors that kept it real and honest. Thank you to Jay R and team for a day to always be remembered!!

c and lights were perfect. We also when with drapery behind the head table and it looked amazing. I can't say enough nice things working with this company.

ized email including details about what we talked about (and the fact that we had our infant daughter with us) We had some correspondence back and forth but ended up changing our wedding date due to not having enough time. Jay R remembered us and got us quotes immediately. He set up an account for us to gather all of our information on and assigned us a DJ right away. Patrick was also very quick with correspondence. We met him in person twice and each time we talked for hours about our event. When our wedding day came he was awesome at making sure things went smoothly and engaging the audience. Our dance floor was literally packed the entire night. We were completely happy with all of the services provided and we highly recommend this company to any bride and groom looking for a DJ

iments from our guests about how awesome DJ Rich was! My husband and I highly recommend DJ Rich for any event!

ich many companies are not! We had DJ Devin Moore for our wedding and he did a outstanding job, and kept our dance floor filled the entire night. We had a very young crowd and he made it feel like we were all back in college again, including our older guests!! He ended on a unforgettable high note and he will make your wedding a blast!! Thank you guys sooo much! -The Marquard’s

t us informed, excited and stress free! He kept our dance floor packed all night and made sure myself and my husband were taken care of until the very end! I highly recommend this company for any DJ needs!

aving a good time, and the music is the most important part of that. It’s what gets everyone in the mood to either sit at their table and awkwardly participate in small talk, or grab a drink and head to the dance floor. I would’ve been heartbroken if I saw all of my guests being wallflowers. But, Devin M with Selective Sound Entertainment made sure that my guests spent the majority of their night dancing! He listened to every request I made and kept the party going! Devin was also very professional. He was the life of the party when he needed to be, and commanded the attention of the room when we were ready to take large group photos, make a toast, or cut the cake. He really helped “run the show”. Trust me, you want people who are willing to be in command and grab peoples attention, because wrangling 160 partially intoxicated friends and family members is NOT something you want to do on your big day. He kept those moments so stress free for me, and for that, I am so very grateful! Our wedding was in a very large pavilion, and I worried the sound would be really hard to master, but he did it perfectly! The speeches were clear and the music wasn’t blaring to make up for the lack of walls. Two friends of ours, who will be getting married at the same location next year, even asked us for his information, because they were so impressed with his work. The entire process, from meeting initially with Jay R at their office, to Skyping and Emailing with Devin (I live in NC, while our wedding was in Ohio), was so easy and relaxed. It was like talking to an old friend. I am so so appreciative of the work that Devin put into making our day as perfect as we had hoped it would be!

y R is truly an AWESOME person and he is the BEST out there! I really can't thank him enough for everything he has done for us and our wedding. He went above and beyond what I ever expected. Our wedding was truly STUNNING because of Selective Sound and Jay R! THANK YOU SO MUCH!:)

was so interactive and really got people excited. What I loved about Selective Sound is their online planning tool. You log in to your account and you can fill out a timeline of your wedding day, the names of the people in your bridal party, and then you pick all your special songs. You can make changes as many times as you want until 1 week before the wedding! After that, I just texted my DJ with a last minute change. They helped make my wedding perfect! (Seriously! Not a single thing went wrong!)

trusted him. We felt like our day really was a huge party which is exactly what we were going for. He also brought the lighting which turned out to be so beautiful for our venue. We also arranged through them the magic mirror. It was so easy to coordinate through this company! I was sooo excited when I found out we could get one through them! It made our day even more perfect!! Jay R even called my venue to arrange where the mirror would go! Little things like that are huge for a bride!! We highly recommend Jay R and selective sound!!

exactly what we wanted. We used 2 70 inch TV's for SocialCast- a program where guests can hashtag photos and they will then be displayed on the TVs. We also used the TV's to live stream the ball drop. Lastly, SSE provided confetti cannons for the midnight celebration. This was truly a production and work of art. We had sound technicians, someone to run the TV's and of course our DJ/MC Marcus. I could tell all staff were prepped and organized and knew exactly what to do when it came to our wedding. DJ Marcus understood the age and vibe of the crowd but also did a phenomenal job pleasing our guests with their song requests. Marcus and the entire staff was very professional and prepared. I would recommend SSE, Marcus, and Jay R to anyone.

brought things up we had never even thought of. Jay R was also our DJ the day of & seemed to understand exactly what I wanted without me having to say much at all! I was more laid back about everything which could have gone badly if we didn't have such an amazing DJ. I was planning my wedding from out of town & after hiring them we had several planning calls before the big day. The day of, Jay R worked with my cousin/officiant & families through so many details that I never even thought of and made it unbelievably stress free. He was so awesome at keeping everything on track during the reception. I can't say enough positive things and we are still getting compliments on how wonderful everything was and our awesome DJ. We also used Selective Sound for uplighting & videography. Uplighting was gorgeous in the City View Room at Windows on the River. Matt was our main videographer and he was so amazing as well. Him & my photographer bonded right away and worked together to get some incredible shots. I can't wait to see the finished product. I've learned over the past year that planning a wedding is insanely stressful, but if you want to take some of that stress away, Selective Sound is your best choice :)

orth kept us calm in even the craziest of times and the services he provided were above and beyond what we ever thought we would have at our wedding. The first service was DJ and boy did he have everyone dancing! He had the crowd going wild from the moment the dance floor opened until the night ended! Our guests were all asking who our DJ was - before the wedding was even over! The second service was our uplighting - if I could post pictures, you would see the amazing job he did transforming our venue. To top off all this beautiful decor he provided us with the much sought after mirror photo booth - which was a huge hit and produced absolutely awesome memories. The kicker of the night was the sparkular display which was perfectly timed and had the crowd roaring all night. Not only is SSE amazing to work with but he is easy and will make sure that you get through all the necessary evils of a wedding while still making sure you have an awesome time! I wish we could re-do our wedding all over again and we would hire JR and SSE in a heart beat!

is a HUGE part of receptions and they definitely made ours AMAZING. Our dj was Devin M. and we really enjoyed having him at our wedding. He followed my crazy playlists as well as stepped in and made sure things ran on time and moved along. He was very interactive with our guests and I really liked that. We chose the let's party option and I think all wedding receptions should! After all you want people to have fun and out on the dance floor. The uplighting, pin spot, light programming and gobo were all so amazing. I was in awe when I walked into our reception. Selective sounds did such a great job and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone! I promise you it's worth it. I am so thankful I found them and booked them. They really made our wedding day special. Thank you

with us up until we finally met with our dj. DJ Brian was amazing! He was so helpful when setting up our big day and we felt comfortable right away. We knew we were putting our wedding in good hands. He worked well with the other vendors and his song choices were on point. Our dance floor was full all night and the uplighting looked great. The day went smoothly and he made sure our day was special!

his transitions are impressive. Truth be told, Marcus earned an extra tip by the end of the night because everyone was so impressed. DJ Marcus is the man!

ow awesome the wedding was due to the the DJ! Highly recommend!

s about him. From the entire planning process to the day of the wedding , he was so wonderful to work with. SO glad we chose to go with SSE for our DJ needs!!

or a guitarist. Our guests cant stop raving about DJ Marcus! Our dancefloor was packed the whole night! I highly recommend Selective Sound!!

. was our DJ and I cannot say enough good things about him and his professionalism! He knew exactly what he was doing and made our wedding go beyond smooth! Everyone was dancing the entire night and the dance floor was never empty!

reat choice! All of our guests danced all night long! We heard all of our favorite songs! The lighting was an awesome addition and the photo booth was a great way for us to remember the fun that everyone had! Many of our guests commented that this was the best wedding ever and I know that that was partly due to the awesome music that played throughout the night! Great job Jay r!! Thank you!!

ur wedding day, everything was perfect and as promised. He ensured our wedding guests were entertained and engaged. He also ensured we stuck to our timeline so that the night ran smoothly. Our photo-booth attendant did an amazing job organizing the booth and our keepsake photo album was perfect! Once the dance floor was open for the night, it was PACKED! The music Jay-R played was amazing and kept the party going, even until the very last song. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose SSE every time, without hesitation! Thank you SSE and Jay-R for helping make our big day absolutely perfect!

leading up to the ceremony (when details were finalized). He went above and beyond for us in SO many ways. To start, he helped our pastor with the sound system and was able to work with all of our vendors to ensure the schedule, timing, and sound was right. The best part about it all is that our dance floor was packed all night, I mean PACKED. Our photographer said she couldn't get many pictures because it was so packed! We had many different age groups represented but Patrick found a way to tie everyone in the whole night. (we paid for shuttle buses to take people to the hotel starting at 9:45 and NO ONE left until 11!) Our wedding guests are still raving about our DJ and how awesome he was. They were even chanting "one more song!" once the reception was over! We truly had the best night ever and that's a huge thanks to Patrick! Thank you Selective Sound, we will DEFINITELY be recommending you in the future!

n a DJ, he should be hired to deal with any issues that may arise at weddings :). We shopped around and chose Selective Sound because I had a great initial conversation with Jay. The company offers a lot, is professional and is very thorough. I can say with 100% confidence that you will not go wrong choosing them!!!

ur wedding! I would recommend them to anyone getting married!

s with Marcus and he was awesome! We are so happy with how everything turned out. Marcus kept us on track during the reception and kept everyone out on the dance floor until the very end.

ning to end help us organize everything with meetings over the phone emails and reminders so we would not miss a step. DJ Danny and the crew that did the ceremony arrived promptly, were professional, worked extremely well with all the other vendors, had state of the art equipment and most importantly kept the party going all the way until the end, our dance floor was never empty.

keeping up with our high energy guests. He was ready to go well before guests starting arriving and played fantastic music all night starting at 5 and ending at midnight. The wireless lighting that Jay R hooked us up with was incredible. The room started out as purple, changed to blue and pink for mother son and father daughter dance, then kept changing throughout the night to match the music. We are beyond happy that we decided to to with Selective Sound!!

lighting, DJ, photobooth, & videographer through them. We could not have made a better choice. Everyone was super professional and on time. Anytime I had a question, I received an email within a few hours, if it was late at night, by mid-morning the next day. The photobooth and videographer worked like a well oiled machine. No worries for this bride! We received the book of the photos that night and I'm sure the video will be just as wonderful as everything else. Our DJ Marcus, was absolutely amazing. He was so professional and organized. Anyone planning a wedding knows how hectic it can be, this was one area that I did not have to worry about. Marcus had everything taken care of and I could focus on my guests. He kept the party going and definitely knows how to read a crowd. My daughter's sweet sixteen is coming up and I would definitely call them again for her party. If you are looking for one (or several) thing(s) to check off of your list, go with Selective Sound. You will not have to worry about the organization, professionalism or quality of their work. They do it all.

made sure our day was perfect. Our guests had a blast and our tent and surrounding areas were lit up beautifully. What more could you ask for? Our guests are still complimenting on how much fun they had- and we have Jay R and the Selective Sound team to thank for that!

unt down.

whole process; just having him coordinate and manage all the details will keep your mind at ease. Our DJ was Mike, and he was great as well! He took the time to meet us prior to the wedding to get to know our tastes, likes, and dislikes, and on the night of the wedding he was a fun DJ/MC! We had many guests mention how entertaining he was. Ask for him if you can!

t our minds at ease. We used their up-lighting as well which made our venue look incredible. We worked with Brian as our DJ and we was incredible as well. He was a great help in setting our timeline and kept things moving efficiently all night long. The dance floor was never empty, and everyone had an amazing time. I cannot recommend this company enough for your wedding day. They are true professionals who will make your night perfect!

ay to pronounce everyone in the wedding's name - you can tell he truly cares about your wedding. He kept the dance floor FILLED with people of all ages, which made my husband and I so happy. He kept the night moving smoothly, didn't over announce and made sure we were happy to entire time. Also, if you have specific requests (songs you absolutely want played and songs you absolutely don't play) he will stick to it. We heard everything we asked for and didn't have a single line dance played :) HIGHLY recommend. We also rented a photobooth from Selective Sound for our wedding, which everyone loved! They provided us with an album of all of the photobooth photos, and people were able to sign next to their pictures too! It is a great album that we will be able to cherish for years. All of our guests said they loved it, and the staff person working the booth was so pleasant and fun - he even jumped in a few of the pics!! Selective Sound is the way to go. We looked at 3-4 other DJs and I am so happy we chose them.

heads and laugh so hard. He listened to us, and most of all read the crowd better than any DJ i have ever witnessed. Our dance floor was PACKED all night long. Request DJ Marcus if you go with Selective Sound Entertainment. P. S. --lighting = absolutely perfect, and breath taking. Photo booth = great personnel , but no props for the basic package.

ayR was timely in responses, never left me feeling over or underwhelmed, professional and knowledgeable. Being a Bride who wanted to feel that nothing was left out of my day - JayR quoted everything under the sun that was a possibility to add into our day and we made decisions from there. We had uplighting, floor washes, GOBO's, pipe and drape, photobooth, dancing on the clouds, DJ and a sound system for our ceremony, (although I am sure I am missing something else SSE did for us!) Rick, our DJ, we met a few months before our wedding day. We gave him a very tall order. No requests, no line dances, club vibe from beginning to end! This was not typical for him as he said he usually likes to take care of the entire crowd for weddings and play songs from all genres and for every age group to appease every guest. We were adamant on him sticking to our wishes and he did! Literally - from after our first dance until the end of the night - there was not an open spot on the dance floor. It was bumping and packed the WHOLE evening. He played from our request list, songs that he chose, and even a few requests that ended up being perfect!!! Later in the night he played some 80's songs that made the very few people in their seats get on the dance floor. My uncles were happy! Seriously, could not have asked for a better DJ! He was timely with our evening, went in the exact order for speeches, dances, etc. He even played a hurricane horn which is an inside joke with my husband and his groomsmen! What DJ has a hurricane horn on queue?!?! It was everything we wanted our reception to be. If you want the best DJ, the best detailed oriented team - JayR and Rick from Selective Sound are your guys. Cannot praise them enough!!! THANK YOU!
