Dale was so kind and gave us great suggestions on how to keep a good flow and make our wedding special while showcasing our personality. Dale took charge when things needed to get ...
moved along which includes finding the groom and bride when needed and making sure people were quiet before the toast among other things. On the flipside, he took a step back when needed and allowed things to flow naturally. In our first interview he gave a lot of green flags for a wedding event and they weren't just talk. He followed through on those comments. We highly recommend him for any event and we will be recommending him to our friends.

time and went off perfectly! Our guests LOVED all the music that was played. He gave us great advice when it came to picking songs and where they can be played throughout the wedding. The system he used made things a breeze when it came to finding and picking songs as well. Will always recommend Dale!

day. Brought expertise on what is 'cool' to do at the moment. Additional songs we didn't know we needed.
Dale is upbeat, excited for event, fun, a great DJ, and a better MC for your event. You can not have a better DJ.

onfident we had made the right choice in DJ.
The website that is used to select what is and what is not played worked extremely well for us. The music as the wedding was exactly what we wanted to hear and we left it to Dale to fill in the gaps as necessary. His years of experience really shows and his help coordinating our event let it run smoothly as ever.
I don’t think we will ever forget asking Dale to play Avenged Sevenfold(Metal) for our ceremony intro.. Although it was an odd request, he made it work so well!
Accommodating, professional, experienced, and just a cool guy, is how we would describe Mr. Dale!

at the wedding was an amazing thing to offer. It made picking the music easy and showed us some songs we couldn’t think of right off the top of our heads to have. I have recommended him to many of my friends and clients. He did my sisters wedding and ours and we couldn’t have more great things to say about him!! If we did it all over again we would always choose Dale.

ing as he guided us through and inspired some of our creativity and planning. His platform for playlist creation has great suggestions and organization. We had the ability to adjust well into the week of the wedding and I’m certain I could have asked for changes the day of the wedding if I had any reason to. He was polite to our guests, handled the crowd very well, kept the evening going in orderly fashion, brought great energy, and truly celebrated our event with congratulations and well wishes. I hope I see Dale again at many other weddings in the future and would hire him again for any other events I would have a need of a DJ!

He also was able to accommodate our wedding date with less notice than typical, and took a ton of stress off of us!
His communication was stellar from first meeting all of the way up to the wedding. His website was also easy to use when requesting songs we wanted to have played.
Overall, he exceeded our expectations and are ABSOLUTELY happy Dale was our DJ! Thank you Dale!!!

you give as much or as little input into your music and either way, you can’t go wrong! Dale uses tools that make it so easy to create your own music choices, but he also does wonderful at picking up on what you are going for and the vibes of the guests. Dales setup was very nice and did not damper any aspect of the venues decorations. Dale was so kind and helpful and I could have not asked for a better DJ. I will ALWAYS recommend Dale to anyone looking for a DJ! He and his music were so fun and memorable!

We cannot say enough great things about Dale Moberly from Sounds Great Entertainment! From the moment we started working with him, Dale was so easygoing, professional, and helpful....
He truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day at The Madison Event Center unforgettable.
Dale didn't just play music—he expertly guided the entire flow of the evening. His timing was flawless, his announcements were clear and polished, and he kept everything running smoothly without ever feeling rushed or scripted.
And the dance floor? PACKED all night! Dale read the room perfectly and kept the energy high from the first dance to the very last song. So many of our guests told us it was one of the most fun wedding receptions they’ve ever attended—and that’s thanks to Dale.
If you're looking for a DJ who’s talented, organized, and genuinely invested in making your day amazing, Dale is your guy. He made our wedding celebration something we—and our guests—will never forget.
Thank you, Dale!

Dale played a major role in making this once in a lifetime event, a huge success! Absolutely the best! Thanks!

During our wedding, Dale was fantastic! He played the playlist we gave him flawlessly, and much of the music that we had him use his discretion on was perfect! If you need a DJ for a wedding or any other event for a reasonable rate, Dale at Sounds Great Entertainment is your guy! We were pleased with the DJ services that he provided.

flexible. He has a system to create a playlist that is very user friendly but I already had Spotify playlists made and he was happy to work with that so it was much easier on me! He is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure you have the perfect event! I was so lost on how to make a timeline of events (between speeches, buffet dinner, anniversary dance, trying to get group pictures with the tables, etc.) and he was able to recommend a timeline that worked for us. Everything went so smoothly! The day of the event, Dale arrived early to set up, he even helped us light candles before guests arrived at the venue - that was so appreciated because I was stressing! Dale read the room and kept our party going. I would absolutely book Dale again! Thank you so much Dale!
