SoundFire DJ, although not the least expensive DJ, is the DJ every wedding needs. Alton was perfect for our wedding and perfect for us. His sound for the ceremony was perfect. He put together a special intro and song for my wife to walk down to that took me and everyone by surprise. I don’t cry but he succeeded in bringing tears to my eyes as she walked down. His special love story made many people shed a tear including people I’ve never seen cry in my life. He kept the dance floor full from beginning to until the end and even did a little mixing of his own which I had hoped for. Alton truly is the best who provides a unique experience that you and your guests will never forget.
Brian (DJ Dorn) & Alton made our wedding so incredibly special. All the help they gave us pre-wedding with timelines/things to consider, their organization, personalization, and going above and beyond made our day truly special. We received endless compliments during our event on the MC’ing and the music played. Absolutely could not recommend them more, DJ Dorn seriously crushed it helping to create a beautiful cohesive love story from our interviews in addition to the hilarious wedding party intros. The lip sync battle instead of glass clinking to request a kiss was great, and the table impossible to get a pic with all of our guests I got several compliments on as well. Soundfire is happy to accommodate any request and brings a next level or creativity and personalization to any event. Hands down best DJ service around.
Alton was exactly what we were looking for in a DJ for our Wedding. We had been in communication with Alton since the day we booked him. I think we often overlook the role the DJ plays in a wedding. They are in charge for a large majority of the event and getting the crowd involved. I was worried about the crowd at my wedding not getting out on the dance floor and Alton kept the dance floor busy the WHOLE night. Included in the dancing and music Alton also took the time to hear our story and asked us to share a message with our partner that would be shared on the big day. I would recommend Alton and his services to any friends and family.
Alton was thorough and personable, he ensured that our DJ experience was fully customized to our needs for our wedding. He was fun and easy to talk to during our meetings, asked us lots of questions and made sure he got all the information he needed from us to give us the best most personalized experience, and even went above and beyond for us on multiple occasions. To say that Alton is a great person and DJ is an understatement. Alton was an extremely vital part of our wedding in so many ways, he not only gave us a great time, but he also connected us with our guests via a personalized love story, he connected us with each other as a couple, he made every moment fun. His mixing skills are brilliant, his MC skills are perfect, his people skills are the best! Hiring Alton will be the best decision of your life, and will make your wedding a huge success! There is no one in the DJ world quite like Alton, and you will never find a better DJ anywhere but here! Thank you so much Alton for making our day a fairytale and a dream come true, we appreciate you so very much!
I highly recommend SoundFire DJ for your wedding entertainment needs. This is so much more than just your typical DJing service.
We had Alton and Jason for our wedding on Friday, October 13th and we received such great feedback from our wedding guests on the entertainment they provided us for the night.
So many guests commented how fun and unique everything was. Alton went above and beyond to make our wedding day amazing for us. He was fun, professional, and even threw in some surprises throughout the night like recording our wedding vows from our ceremony to play before our last song of the night.
The experience we received from SoundFire DJ was truly worth every penny we spent.
Alton and his team were so professional and fun to work with. The most important part of the wedding aside from the food is the entertainment. sound Fire went about and beyond our expectations from start to finish. I didn’t have to worry about letting people know when the late night snack came out or when the sparkler picture was being taken. Aton took care of running the show so I could enjoy the night. He added his special touch to the night and knows what music to play to keep everyone on the dance floor. Having a packed dance floor all night shows how good your DJ is and ours was packed all night. As soon as you set a date, book Sound Fire and you wind be disappointed. Thank you again Alton and Sound Fire for making my daughters wedding so special and fun
We had a great experience using Soundfire and DJ Alton! He was very thorough and did a fantastic job personalizing the music and emcee responsibilities at my wedding. Highly recommend for anyone getting married in Wisconsin.
I couldn't be more happy about Alton and the awesome service he provided for our wedding! Alton made sure before the wedding we had everything we needed for it to be a success. He checked in throughout all the steps and was very responsive to emails and communications. We had SO many compliments about Alton and the great DJ he was. His set-up of the equpiment as well was top notch! He makes the wedding so personal, keeps everything on track, kept people on the dance floor and the guests and I really appreciated the special touches he provided. I couldn't reccomend SoundFire DJ more for any special occasion you have!
Alton is a real life super hero. From the moment we met him for the first time, until our final hug goodbye at the end of the reception, he made sure we knew he was only a phone call away.
Alton helped us plan every minute without having us feel overwhelmed by all the details. Nothing is overlooked if he’s involved. He has unique ideas to make sure your event isn’t like all of the others. His passion for DJing and event planning is evident whenever you talk to him.
Not only is Alton fabulous at his job, he’s also just a joy to be around. He’s goofy, welcoming, and very caring. He gets to know you as a friend rather than a customer. I couldn’t recommend him enough.
We worked with Alton from Soundfire DJ for a video streaming service for our wedding ceremony on October 9th 2021. We have nothing but great admiration and high praise for the service Alton provided and company.
We wanted to add a streaming service in the last minute to our ceremony for our guests in Germany that not were not able to come due to covid travel restrictions. Given the last minute nature, it was not easy to find someone that could do our streaming service. We stumbled across Alton from a suggestion of another vendor, and were lucky he just had a cancellation on our day Alton was an absolute lifesaver. Separate from the exceptional work he did with the streaming service he offered assist and advice on the day of the wedding that was invaluable such as lighting tips. He is very organized, has great follow-through, very professional, collaborated well with our other vendors, and In all honesty we wished we had used him for our DJ service as well.
Nothing but high praise and admiration for Alton and SoundFire DJ service, they made it possible for our family in another country to be able to be virtually present in our ceremony which is priceless. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
The most effortless wedding day ever thanks to Alton. I truly got a wedding planner, a unique personalized experience, and allowed to enjoy our day freely as I didn't have to worry about a thing because of thier hard work. By far worth every single penny we spent. Superb service. Above and beyond by far.
We had a great experience with SoundFire DJ for our wedding. From the initial meeting to the day of, everything went exactly how we hoped and expected. I recommend their services if you have any DJ and MC needs.
Alton was amazing to work with! He had so many great ideas and thoughts that we were able to use while planning the big day. He walks through every detail with you before the wedding, so when you arrive at the reception all you need to do is have fun, and he makes sure everything you wanted done happens when and how you wanted it. He also does some amazing things that helps all the guests get to know you and your wedding party on a better level and makes it much more personal for your guests. The amount of compliments we got about our big day was crazy and a lot of that is due to Alton!
Alton was so helpful and made the day run smoothly!
Alton was great to work with! He made everything very personal. Our wedding party, parents, and guests made many comments on how amazing it was that he had us describe each wedding party member and our memories with them, so he was able to announce them before our grand march. They loved how he told our love story before our first dance in a fun and comical way. He met with us as a couple several times in order to ensure that our day flowed as easily as possible. He worked with our photographer so we could have the best possible lighting for pictures during our first dance. He kept everyone on the dance floor til the end of the night with his talented mixing skills and great music selection. We would highly recommend SoundFire DJ to anyone!
Shawn and Tyler with Soundfire DJ did an exceptional job with our wedding on July 11, 2020 in Door County. The detail and hard work that was put into our ceremony and reception was really what put SFDJ above any other wedding DJ I have experienced. Shawn was excellent with talking to our guests and staying open to schedule changes throughout the night. He kept in contact with me throughout the entire wedding and was super fun and brought a great energy! Tyler’s music was amazing. I loved that he fused a bunch of songs that we requested together to make it more fun. He read the room and would play slow songs or fast songs at perfect times. Requests were always granted and they had an awesome selection of songs available. I loved that we were able to make playlists beforehand with their easy-to-use website. I also appreciated that we would get monthly emails with general wedding reminders of what is typically done that month during wedding planning. That was super helpful for myself who did not hire a wedding planner and had zero experience with planning events. SFDJ truly helped make our special day absolutely perfect, regardless of the COVID-19 pandemic. I cannot thank you enough!!! I look forward to going to other events in the future with you guys as some of our wedding guests loved you so much they will be using SFDJ for their wedding!
TJ and Alyssa from SoundFire DJ killed our wedding ceremony and reception! We hired SoundFire DJ initially because they made us feel supported and at ease during our planning process. However, how they executed was above and beyond. There was a minor logistical issue getting to our ceremony site at the Green Bay Botanical Gardens where one of their vehicles broke down. However, Alyssa was right there to meet me when I arrived with plenty of time to let me know she was on her way over and everything would be okay. I immediately felt at ease because we trusted them over our many meetings. My only fault was not telling my fiancé or officiant who were patiently waiting to be mic’d up 😐. But they told me TJ and Alyssa came hustling in, speakers and cords in hand and set up very quickly.
I also forgot to make our kissing menu. So Alyssa, armed with a smile, was there to meet me at the reception to ask about it and what we would want her to announce as a plan B. It worked out perfectly because I did not want those clanking glasses!
They also were very patient with us getting pulled into different directions and maybe us not allows being perfectly on time for each planned event. We got so many compliments on our DJ. We would recommend TJ and Alyssa a 100x over!
My #1 goal for my wedding day was to be able to show up and have all the work done for me, so I didn't have to stress on my day.
Alton & SoundFire DJ made that happen. Alton checked in with us prior to the wedding as well as at the reception. Alton and Soundfire DJ were a pleasure to work with. We had a large wedding, and Alton was able to keep to crowd attentive. He also made sure our guests had a great time on the dance floor. Alton and SoundFire DJ exceeded our expectations!
SoundFire DJ made our wedding reception such a fun and relaxing time. Alton made sure that everything went smoothly whether it was the flow of the music, helping get everyone through the buffet line, personalizing the entire evening, and so much more. We wouldn’t have changed a thing and so many guests kept saying what a great time they had. Thank you SoundFire DJ for making our special night so much fun!!
We chose Soundfire DJ because we had a feeling that Alton and his team would be able to help us make our wedding an amazingly fun party for us and our guests, and they did that and much more!
The dinner music was exactly what we were hoping for and set the mood of our European theme. And the reception was the epic Italian dance party we wanted!
We truly appreciate all the guidance they provided throughout the planning process, the level of detail put into personalizing the reception, and their flexibility and willingness to help with potential issues and changes came up. Our ceremony and reception ran so smoothly.
We couldn't have asked for a better night! The SoundFire DJ team was so much fun!
Book Soundfire! Alton was great from start to finish. We met with Alton several times leading up to our wedding. Each time we met with him he was prepared and gave us many options on how to make our day everything that we pictured. Our dance floor had people on it all night, there was never a lull. We have gotten many comments on how our wedding was the most personalized wedding they have gone to in a long time they truly felt a part of our day. We felt as though Alton was truly working to make our day the best that it could be not just collecting a check.
Alton with SoundFire DJ was so amazing! He had our friends on the dance floor the whole night at our wedding reception. I had so many people come up to me and say how great he was. And he was. I loved the personalization of our reception and everything he helped us with.
Alton was amazing to work with. He kept everything moving swiftly as well as covering when the photographer needed extra time to set up. He kept the guests entertained and the party going. I love that he doesn't just play music, it's so much more than that. Thanks Alton!
Alton goes above and beyond! When we first met with Alton, we immediately knew we wanted to hire him for our wedding. During our first meeting with him, he took the time to get to know us as a couple and really dug into helping us create a memorable experience for our guests. We loved that he stayed in contact between our first meeting and our big day, he's very communicative and goes out of his way to help you plan your wedding as a whole even outside of the entertainment. We had a final meeting with him a month before our wedding, and we went over all of the details and created a schedule for the day-of. He also interviewed my husband and I individually to have us share our love story and what we love about each other. He shared our love story before our first dance, which was beautiful. Our guests were dancing all night and we had so many compliments on how AWESOME Alton was! He really knows how to create a great experience for your wedding and how to keep the crowd partying. We highly recommend Alton and Soundfire DJ!
I do not know where to begin when talking about the service Alton provided for us. When booking with a DJ you expect them to ask - what music? - - - but With Alton, we got, "what is your love story? how are you connected with your bridal party, and your parents?" These are the things and the people that made our night the celebration of a marriage. We were so appreciative of the personal stories shared at our reception. The great music and sound system was just the cherry on top. He kept our wedding ceremony and reception flowing the entire day - without a hiccup. One of the most memorable moments was at midnight, dancing to Avicii with all of our friends and family surrounding us, rocking with us.
We thank Alton and the crew at Soundfire DJ for their unbeatable service. They are truly experts at this profession and treat their clients to an incredibly memorable experience.
Soundfire DJ's did amazing job at my wedding. They are very thorough, and professional. They personalized our day specifically for us. I would highly recommend them for any event.
My husband and I can not say enough amazing things about Alton. He was truly a master of ceremonies. The week of the wedding he reached out to coordinate with all of our other vendors, and prior to that he met with us to get to know us and our love story. The way he told our story made us fall in love all over again. Alton is worth every penny and then some. He kept the dance floor full all night, was accommodating to our night of requests for songs, and just made the whole reception a blast. 10/10 would recommend.
When I reached out to Soundfire DJ. Alton almost immediately responded via Facebook, and suggested we meet for coffee. We liked him right away and could tell he was a professional. He seemed very prepared and was eager to answer any questions or concerns we had. He was open with price and package options and made us feel like we were truly planning our one of a kind special night. Although I initially thought the price was pretty high, I am a firm believer in paying for QUALITY and finding the best in the business. When we decided to book, not only was Alton my DJ, but he literally helped me with any and everything I needed help with, and doubled as a wedding planner!!! He set me up on my client page on SoundFire DJ’s website, where I was able to view my wedding event info, my song lists that I could add to, and a very helpful reception order form. I called Alton many times for advice on other vendors such as ceremony musicians, catering, flowers, cake, and so much more! It was very helpful to have someone who has been in the wedding business a long time offer me recommendations based on past experiences with certain vendors. SoundFire DJ also sent me monthly checklist emails, with outlined things I should work on each month. We met with Alton at our reception site a month before the wedding, to meet with the wedding coordinator there and go over our banquet hall space. We met with Alton for the last time a little over a week for a final walkthrough of the reception and everyone’s expectations. He answered all of our questions and listened to our preferences. He had up-lighting suggestions based on the color of our linens, helped us through head table deco, and went through EVERY specialty song and when it would play. Not once did he make us feel rushed for asking questions or worrying about small details. Upon leaving I felt very assured that the wedding day would go amazingly. Alton also did our ceremony sound system, to mic our harpist, the groom, and the officiant. He showed up on time to do the mic check, and did an awesome job for the ceremony, the sound had no issues at all. When we arrived for the grand march later that night, he met with all of us to go over expectations for the march and also answered any questions we had, a lot of nervous energy! Alton did an INCREDIBLE job the entire night! He wasn’t just a DJ but also an MC, keeping the guests engaged and entertained throughout dinner and dancing. I really felt like he had a handle on moving the reception along, and there was only one minor flaw when the wrong song was initially played for a dance with my stepdad and I. Besides that, the grand march, the dances, the garter toss and cake cutting all went flawlessly. He was very responsive to our needs during the night, and really got along with our wedding party and other guests. He did a shoely wed game for us (provided the shoes haha) but it was Game of Thrones themed which we loved! He also had many unique ideas for our garter toss that I will never forget! The songs and music quality were perfect. I also rented a projections screen from him which constantly played a cool slideshow of pictures that my Maid of Honor created. I 100% love my decision to hire SoundFire DJ, Alton and Heather made it a night we will never forget! If you are searching for an entertainment company that you won’t regret hiring for the best day of your lives, the Soundfire DJ Team is truly top notch! Thanks guys!
Alton did a fabulous job with our wedding ceremony and reception. He is absolutely a professional who cares about his business and truly an “artist” of his trade. He took the time to get to know us over several meetings, and with his suggestions, helped us to make our reception one of a kind, unique, and memorable for us as well as our guests! Im so glad and grateful I chose Alton to be our wedding DJ, and that we will be able to have those memories for the rest of our lives. From our ceremony, to our first dance, to the kissing games, and the dance floor that was packed full all night, Alton really knows how to host and get people to enjoy themselves, and laugh. We received so many comments and compliments from our guests about our reception and how unique and personalized it was. By showcasing us (although both of us would admit to being shy) and our love story, so many of our guests were in tears and feeling the love in the room, which is what weddings are all about! I would absolutely recommend Alton. He will not disappoint!
Alton was a blast to work with. He connected with us on a personal level the minute we met him. He gave us great ideas of fun and different things to do during the wedding that people normally wouldn't see. The set up was beautiful, the DJs were both very nice and professional, and everyone at our reception had nothing but great things to say. Alton took a lot of the pressure off us for coming up with things to say to our guests; his interviews with us in the weeks before our wedding shaped the way he ran our reception, and the reception ran smoothly. SoundFire DJ was the first and only DJ service we spoke with. We can't recommend them highly enough.
Soundfire DJ will exceed your expectation of what an event entertainment company can be. Alton is a consummate professional. You can trust him to be punctual and prepared, respond with timely answers or suggestions when you need them, and provide unmatched personal attention to your event. You will appreciate the personalized web site planning service as well as the numerous options for enhancing your event that Soundfire can offer. Alton took the time to collaborate with our other wedding vendors months in advance to ensure the entire day would be phenomenal. And it was! From our ceremony music, to up-lighting the space, the EverSnap app, the grand march, our special dances with his very personal touches and an amazing dance party. You’ll truly appreciate Alton’s exceptional MC skills as he guides your guests through a very enjoyable and memorable event. Soundfire DJ is an absolute pleasure to work with we highly recommend to anyone who is looking for entertainment services that will deliver a distinctive experience that any host or guest will be sure to appreciate and remember fondly.
From the moment we met with Alton, we knew we couldn’t go with anyone else. He took the time to get to know us personally and made our day run amazingly. The things he did with having him tell our love story for everyone to share in our special journey was incredible. He provided music and sound for our ceremony and through the rest of the night. Everything was planned perfectly and incredibly unique. Everyone had a great time and the dance floor was packed all night. Alton was able to do so many unique things with having us record messages to each other (we had no idea what each other had said) and then incorporating them into our first dance. It was very emotional and very unique. Alton worked with all of our vendors to make things run incredibly smoothly. We were able to plan our entire day with Alton, which made our stress levels go down, and left us with practically nothing to worry about. It was a truly special experience, and couldn’t recommend Alton and SoundFire DJ highly enough.
Alton at SoundFire DJ was the first DJ we met with. To make sure we did our research, we met with a few others, but every one of them we ended up comparing back to Alton, and after that we knew we had to have him for our wedding day. It was important to us that we had someone energetic and excited about our plans, and we definitely felt that way with him. Prior to meeting with SoundFire DJ we felt very lost when it came to planning what was going to happen at our reception. During the planning stages SoundFire DJ was incredibly helpful by assisting us with getting exactly what we wanted out of the music selections & flow of the event. We loved the monthly email checklists, the easy to use online planner, and Alton gave us his personal attention whenever we had questions.
When we got to our wedding day everything was delivered as promised, and more! We want to say that Alton has incredible people skills, and our guests absolutely loved him. He also did all kinds of things that really made our wedding day unique & personalized that I haven’t ever seen done at another wedding. Especially the way he introduced us, our wedding party, and family members by sharing our story as a couple, and how that related to our guests & family. Alton also created this amazing medley for my father/daughter dance, and had his lighting set to our color scheme. All of those details, and more, added up to make the experience exceed our expectations! Thank you for working with us to make our wedding day the best!
