Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
SteadyJake DJ in Jackson, WY, has performed hundreds of weddings, parties, fundraisers, and corporate events. No two are ever the same, but they all share one common denominator: FUN.
I know what it takes to transition the evening smoothly, from cocktails to dinner to dancing, all while building excitement. I have expert MCing skills and an uncanny ability to play the right song at the right time—stuff you love, stuff you forgot you loved, and some music maybe you've never heard, but your feet find most agreeable.
I own my business. Maybe I'm a perfectionist, but I don't trust my company's reputation or, more importantly, your wedding to anyone but me. You can pay more, but I don't know why you would. You won't find a better DJ or one more dedicated to your event.
What You'll Love About SteadyJake DJ
Jake is excellent at reading the room and creating the perfect mood for the moment. He maintains a vast knowledge of music spanning decades and an eclectic list of songs, bands, and genres to appeal to all. Check out the reviews to learn more about SteadyJake DJ.

Best dance party EVER thanks to Jake! The dance floor was not empty for a single moment. Jake was super easy to work with throughout the planning process, handled all sound/microphone needs the day of, had everything set up perfectly and professionally, and played the best songs at the exact right moment! He created the perfect soundtrack for our big day and we could not be more grateful! If you have the chance to work with Jake, don't hesitate!

Jake was hands down the best DJ I have see at a wedding. He is a set it and forget kind of operation. Never had to worry about the DJ was nice part, when having to worry about everything else. I have had nothing but complements on the fact that he read the room so well and was always playing songs at just the right time. I would recommend him with six stars if I could.

BEST DJ IN JACKSON HOLE! SteadyJake made our wedding perfect! He was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process. He even edited a custom walkout song for us because the part we liked was too short for the walk. He made it work perfectly! We had a diverse crowd at our wedding but was still able to get everyone dancing! We had certain songs that we wanted played during the cocktail hour and dinner. Based on that, he was able to pick up on our vibe perfectly and build the rest of his playlist around those songs to create the exact atmosphere we were going for.

I found Jake online when first researching vendors for our destination wedding in Jackson and had a wonderful experience working with him. He's well connected in the community - not only did everyone have great things to say about him, but he recommended a few other vendors locally which were amazing as well.
He's laid back and easy going and knows music regardless of genre - whether you want to leave direction fully in his hands or share playlists to guide the evening. We provided a sample playlist and input on the type of music / vibe we were going for and he nailed it! Having only chatted with Jake a few times prior to our wedding (we planned from a far), the night of felt like our best friend who knows us in and out was leading the show. We could not recommend him more and all of our guests have said the same.

After our wedding, we received so many compliments from guests on how great the music was! Jake really knows how to read a room and played a variety of music that all our guests could enjoy and dance to. He was able to create such a fun environment with the music selection from the cocktail hour, through dinner, and then of course on to dancing. He took guests song requests and was able to incorporate those songs at just the right moment. From our first phone call, I felt at ease by his professionalism and am so happy with our decision to book with Steady Jake.
response 08/07/2023
Thanks a million, Katy. Glad I was able to make your event something special.

Couldn't have asked for a better DJ!! I was hesitant to hire a DJ at first since 1. We were traveling to Wyoming all the way from Pennsylvania and 2. We were having a small intimate wedding ceremony and holding a dinner and small reception on a restaurant patio. He was quick to respond, answered all of our questions and even offered us suggestions since the space would be limited. We really wanted someone who was personable and can get our few guests on the dance floor, and he did just that! He was open to the type of music we wanted played and open to all song requests. Our guests complemented on the music and how much fun they had dancing - we even had guests that weren't with our party come up and start dancing with us because they just couldn't resist! Jake made our day so much more memorable!

That was a lot of fun! Thanks, Jen, for taking the time to share. Great night.

Steady Jake is a true professional. He knew how to generate the vibe, play to the crowd and read the room, and was an awesome overall dj to our wedding. He kept the party going without trying to take it over or make it our party. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to have a great celebration in the Jackson area.

Jake is the BEST! We had the privilege of having Jake as the DJ at our wedding, and we couldn't have been more thrilled with the incredible vibe he created! From start to finish, he proved himself to be an absolute professional and a true master of his craft.The music selection was absolutely on point. Jake effortlessly mixed tracks from various genres that we selected, ensuring that every guest, young and old, found themselves dancing the night away. The dance floor was never empty, and the energy in the room was electric. Beyond the music, Jake also served as an exceptional MC, guiding the evening seamlessly. His announcements were clear, concise, and never intrusive, keeping the flow of the event smooth and organized. He struck the right balance between engaging the crowd and letting the music do the talking.The setup and equipment were top-notch as well. The sound quality was crystal clear, and the lighting effects added an extra layer of excitement to the dance floor.
Not only did Jake meet our expectations, but he far exceeded them. His professionalism, dedication, and genuine passion for his work shone through every moment of our celebration. Our guests are still raving about how much fun they had, and we have Jake to thank for that.
If you're in search of a DJ who will not only meet but exceed your wedding entertainment dreams, look no further than Jake! We wholeheartedly give him five stars and our highest recommendation. Thank you Jake for making our special day truly unforgettable!

Jake did a phenomenal job at our wedding! From the ceremony set up (mics, music, sound) to the reception. Our venue was at a guest ranch in the mountains where there were limited power sources. Jake came with all the necessary equipment to make sure he could operate at our location.
Before the big day Jake sent us a google doc to include information about our big day. This included songs we wanted to play throughout the day (processional, recessional, first dance, etc.). We also got to choose most, if not all, of the songs we wanted played at our reception. Which during the reception he followed through with our list. :)
My husband and I- as well as my parents- received NUMEROUS positive comments from guests about “the DJ.” Most comments included how great he did! The vibe during the reception was FUN! He stayed until the very end of the night to play us our private last dance song.
I would absolutely recommend Steady Jake DJ for your wedding day or other large event for all your music needs!

Thank you, Hartly, for the great review. My pleasure and fun night!

Jake was an amazing DJ for our Jackson Hole wedding! He did an incredible job incorporating both my and my new husband's musical tastes into the playlist, all while reading the crowd and keeping the energy going all night. After my friend mentioned in his speech our shared love of Game of Thrones, Jake even played a bit of the theme song which was a huge crowd-pleaser and amazing memory of the night! All in all, we can't recommend Jake enough, he was kind to work with throughout the process and made our wedding day fly by seamlessly. We got endless compliments on the music, and the positive effect that had on all of our guest's experiences- thank you sooo much SteadyJake!

We booked SteadyJake for our wedding in August ‘22 and let’s just say the stoke level was high! We were beyond pleased with our choice! SteadyJake ran the music for our cocktail hour, ceremony, and reception all while providing the exact ambiance we had in mind. He worked closely with my wife and I to understand our music preferences (as well as what we didn’t want!) to get a sense of the exact aesthetic we had in mind for our wedding and he absolutely nailed it. Not only were my wife and I happy about the music selection and ceremony, we had many wedding guests mention how great SteadyJake was in the following days (they are still talking about it a few months later). We had some pretty specific requests, especially when it came to our ceremony, that SteadyJake was happy to work with us on and accommodate. He truly takes the time to get to know you and your preferences so he can execute the exact kind of celebration you have envisioned. In addition to all that he was quite easy to work with and get a hold of in the lead-up to our wedding. Do yourself and wedding guests a favor and book him now!

Music and entertainment is something my husband and I believe is "a make or break" at weddings and Dj Steady Jake did not disappoint!!! We had an intimate wedding of less than 40 people and we were nervous the dance floor would be empty but once the reception started, no one left it! Dj Jake was amazing to work with and always consistent with responding promptly to any questions prior to our wedding. He was very accommodating to all our music requests we had during the ceremony and cocktail hour; we had cover songs during our ceremony that he didn't previously have and made no fuss about finding and having everything the way we hoped. If we were to ever do another event in the Jackson area, Dj Steady Jake would be our first call! 10/10 recommend!!!

Jake made our day beyond special! He had to work in strange circumstances due to our venue and he did everything in his power to make our day the best day of our lives. He worked with our playlists and made sure it fit the vibe of our wedding. We have received MULTIPLE messages from guest raving about our cowboy DJ. If you are getting married around the Jackson area, Jake is a MUST.

Jake was the best wedding DJ! We could not more highly recommend him. For him, it goes beyond the music at the wedding, he understands that his role is more like an emcee, directing people when to sit, stand, when to move to dinner, and the announcements for the grand march. He helped move the night along and as a result we had a perfect day that matched our timeline to a 'T'. I never had to worry about Jake. He was transparent, honest, and to the point from day one, while still showing his passion and excitement for our event. His pricing was transparent and fair. He was also flexible as we asked him to do the ceremony in addition to the reception only a few months before the day! It was so easy to coordinate the songs lists, as we made 2 playlists on spotify (one our favorites, and one our guest requests), so he could play the perfect amount of both during the reception! Book Jake for your next event, you will not be disappointed. He truly knows his craft.

Where do we even start? Jake is absolutely amazing in every way. We couldn’t recommend him enough. HE IS THE BEST. Jake performed at our wedding welcome event at Diamond Cross Ranch and the party was a blast and PERFECT, thanks to Jake. Our guests are still talking about the event to this day. We wish we could do it all over again. Jake was incredibly easy and a pleasure to work with. Everything from the planning prior to the event, to the event itself, was a breeze. He made everything so seamless and easy and made it so we never had to stress. We always knew we were in great hands. He was enthusiastic about our music choices and vision for the night, and he knew exactly how to feel the vibe of the room and get everyone excited, enthusiastic, and on the dance floor. We loved the music and he wove in various genres we wanted to hear. Jake is so kind, friendly, professional, fun, and a wonderful person. He had a big smile on his face the whole party and his positive energy rubbed off on everyone. We feel incredibly lucky that we had the opportunity to work with Jake. Our special wedding event definitely wouldn’t have been the same without him, and it was as amazing as it possibly could be because of him. Jake, thank you so much for giving us and our guests one of the most magical, memorable nights of our lives! We can’t thank you enough.

We got married in a torrential downpour, outside unfortunately.
Jake was beyond professional. He still set up,,still played until our agreed-upon contracted time even though half our party left well before the end of the party because of the weather. He was honest about what he needed, called me the day before to discuss anything that may be an issue and or what he could do to help make it breezier for us and was super supportive the entire time.
I’ve had DJs for other events and he is definitely the best DJ I’ve ever hired and we will absolutely use him again!!!

Blake @ SteadyJake DJ was one of the best parts of our Wilson, WY wedding in July 2021! He was reliable, super fun, down-to-earth, and provided excellent, stress-free service. We had severe non-DJ-related issues (horrendous venue owner - Thal Glass Studio = Avoid!), and Blake took on their badgering and unprofessionalism like a true pro! We would hire SteadyJake again and recommend them for any event you might have!

Oh Camille, I don't know where to begin. I am thankful Blake was there on the front lines ...

Jake was an amazing Dj!! We planned a destination wedding in Jackson, so selecting vendors required a ton of research, but with Jake we felt comfortable right after initially speaking with him. He was super laid back and accommodating. He has done a ton of weddings. especially at our venue so knew the lay of the land. He had great opinions and suggestions when we asked. We provided a list of songs and genres and Jake caught right onto the vibes we wanted for cocktail and reception. Can’t speak highly enough, would definitely recommend to future brides!

Jake was the DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception, and we couldn’t have been happier. He helped us select the music and gave us a checklist so we could note genres we like, must-play songs, and don’t-play songs.
Jake always responded promptly and checked in periodically. We knew the entertainment was safe with him, and all of our other vendors highly recommended him as well.
He did an amazing job the day of the wedding. The music was a perfect blend of our music taste and had the guests on the dance floor. It was the perfect play list and really made the night a hit. Thank you Jake!

It was great to be able to share playlists with him, and he just used his experiences to make all of the music perfect. Sound was wonderful too- that is one thing you see go wrong with DJs.. is the feedback, reverberation or just off-tune music. You won’t get any of that with Jake! If I were to do the wedding all over again I would hire him! Here’s to maybe a 10 year renewal!!

Jake was absolutely incredible for our wedding at the Grand Targhee Resort. He was very responsive and flexible with all the curveballs that were thrown our way. Our wedding was first rescheduled from 2020 to 2021 due to COVID restrictions. He was able to switch dates with no issues. We had a live performer for the first dance and he was accommodating with set up to his sound system and making our first dance sound incredible and then being able to jump right into the father-daughter and mother-son dance with his system. We also had a hiccup with our photograph time due to weather and had to sneak away during the reception to finish this. He was able to keep guests entertained during this time and able to pick up our scheduled timeline as soon as we were done. He was able to read the room and play music that kept people on the dance floor. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the Teton and surrounding areas.

We absolutely loved having Jake DJ our wedding! He really made it feel like our day was 100% tailored to us and really helped in making sure the day went off without a hitch. He's a ton of fun, and did an amazing job at keeping the party going. We would absolutely recommend Jake to anyone considering hosting a wedding/event in Jackson! He really was the icing on the cake!

Jake was incredible. Even though he had a TON of weddings he was very responsive and made sure I felt like our wedding was a top priority. After a handful of emails and one phone conversation, he made sure everything went off without any issues- he really does know what he is doing. We cannot thank him enough for everything he did at our wedding. He made our evening perfect. From keeping things moving along to playing exactly what we wanted, I cannot reccomend him more.

Jake is a great DJ! He is very personable and knows that his job is a key component of your biggest day. You will not be disappointed. Jake also provided us multiple and extensive updates regarding local covid restrictions, etc in the months/ weeks ahead of our big day. We were coming from Another state, so it was so comforting to have somebody giving you the most accurate information.

Jake did an incredible job at our wedding this past February! From the moment we met with him, he knew exactly where to go, what he needed and what info he needed from us. He was very responsive with any questions we had in the planning process and provided all the equipment needed. We enjoyed his humor and professionalism as he led the wedding on through. As a family friend well known by many in our town, we would highly recommend Jake to anyone looking to a professional DJ for their wedding or event!

Jake did our wedding last August at Diamond Cross Ranch in Jackson. I cannot say enough good things about him. With not being from the area I had a difficult time finding someone but once I reached out to Jake I knew he was going to best in that area. Im very picky on my music and so I gave him a huge list of ideas of songs. He did an excellent job on playing what I selected and choosing his own songs to match my kind of music. Very easy to work with and very affordable. He kept everyone dancing all night. Highly recommend!

Where to start is really the question about how amazing Jake was as our DJ, 5 star and here is why. First off I had a wedding 100% planned before covid and still made our original wedding date happen which was 8/8/2020.
First off communication and flexibility was the first strong point. Jake was open and will go DJ a socially distanced wedding and was flexible with moving the dates and refunding if needed. Next, HE MIX US A SONG for the father daughter dance. He took 10 seconds of 10 songs in order for us to complete a choreographed dance and had quick return.
Our wedding was at Grand Targhee Resort and he was willing to travel. He coordinated with the wedding planner and set up was smooth. He was flexible for a last minute song idea during the ceremony. He has enough equipment for a ceremony and reception in two different areas. He was nice, fun, and friendly. He read off the vibe of our guests and asked if he could skip the slower songs on our must play list because we had a lively crew. All microphones were great and everyone could hear all of it (ceremony & speeches). He played all the must play songs we listed. It was simply perfect, he recovered us perfect for things I forgot to do such as give him a list of brides and groom to walk in for the reception. He was out of our way during set up and tear down. He knows how to set speakers up for the ceremony to make sure sound quality is great. Long story short for a DJ in teton county he was a wonderful deal (budget wise). So, if you’re not sold now then you didn’t read all of this. For me a good DJ was #1 most important and we hit a home run by having Jake. It’s hard to trust a stranger in this way so I hope this review helps.

Jake was amazing! I had hired him after reading reviews and talking to previous brides who had used him for their Jackson Hole weddings. They had nothing but great things to say of him and I couldn’t agree more! He listened to our suggestions and made songs shorter and read the room to make sure there was never a lull on the dance floor. Every one of my guests were very pleased with him! Even though my wedding was very small, he made sure to keep the party going. Definitely recommend Jake! Very easy to work with and very responsive throughout the planning process.

Jake was awesome. Music selection and command of production makes all the difference at a wedding. Jake played all of our obscure and personally selected music effortlessly while managing a seamless production with the mic and transitions between toast. There is a reason we have five senses. Don't underestimate the power of having the right DJ at your wedding to handle both ceremony and reception and how hearing impacts the experience. Music moves the heart and mind and helps guests powerfully connect to you and your big day at the wedding. Steady Jake will get it done right with ease. So grateful our venue recommended him!
response 10/21/2019
I certainly share your feelings about the power of music to stir the soul, move the heart....
That's why I do this and I'm very thankful when I get someone who notices the little things. Thanks, Jessica. All the best!

DJ SteadyJake was the best! We hired him for our wedding after a recommendation from a friend.
He did the music and audio for our outdoor ceremony and was great with coordinating audio with our videographer. He was on time and thought of everything, so there were no issues with set-up.
For the reception, he let me use some market-lights of his, very generous! Jake was a great help in moving the night along according to plan, announcing toasts and dances. He played the perfect variety of music, getting all ages on the dance floor for several hours! What a great night!!!
Thank you Jake!
