Three Six Sound

Jason went so above and beyond what is expected of a wedding DJ. We met with him twice before to work on details- he is very organized and friendly! He also called to make sure everything was correct, even down to the pronunciation of the bridal party's names! He made the wedding go very smoothly, as well as suggested a fun game that was the highlight of many people's nights! He made us feel so special and we would HIGHLY recommend!!

Having the right DJ can easily make or break any wedding. Jason, the owner of Three Six Sound, was absolutely incredible. As a former wedding DJ myself, I understand the qualities that make a successful DJ but Jason’s ability to boost the energy of an entire room was beyond my expectations. Jason was everything we were hoping for from a professional DJ. He was on time, polite and trustworthy. He knew how to interact with all of our guests, and was a true professional. Jason’s ability to understand how to play for diverse crowds and seamlessly move from genre to genre is a skill only an experienced DJ can do. I know that wedding couples try to save a little money on building a play list themselves, or hiring an inexpensive DJ, but the thing to consider is “you get what you pay for” when it comes to DJs. It’s not a matter of having “good songs”, it’s about the DJ’s ability to choose the BEST song at the RIGHT time. Jason had our dance floor packed the entire night. He knew how to keep a crowd dancing and we are still hearing compliments on how great of a DJ Jason was. The last thing I need to compliment Jason on is his passion for being a wedding DJ. When you have a passionate DJ, you have someone who honestly cares about the production of a wedding and making your guests happy. Jason was great at knowing what he could do to take our night from special to outstanding. Instead of letting us “figure it out” he was eager to help brainstorm how the night should progress and calmed any concerns. He helped with the wedding party introduction, the transition between the end of dinner and the beginning of the dancing. We even closed the night with our guests still dancing asking for one more song. When it comes down to it, the main thing any couple needs from a DJ is trust. We trust Jason entirely and would absolutely recommend him without hesitation. Three Six sound set a new standard for us. Jason killed it! Thank you Jason for making our night so memorable and fantastic. Alex and Jackie Amacci

Do you want a DJ that is going to go above and beyond? That is going to obsess about every detail? That is guaranteed to get the party started and never let it die? Then Jason is your man! We were blown away by Jason from start to finish. He definitely helped make our wedding extra special. We will be recommending him to all of our friends and family!

Jason was incredible. We aren't local and we planned our wedding in 16 weeks. Needless to say, we needed a DJ who could "get us" and we felt a connection with Jason instantly. We never had to worry about a THING and the entire evening was perfect - we had him do our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and everything was smooth. We recommend him!!!

We were referred to Jason by our photographer (Ashley Berry, also amazing!) who had worked other weddings with him. After a brief call with another DJ service, and then a face-to-face meeting over beers with Jason, we knew he was the right DJ for us before the meeting was over. He immediately got the non-traditional format we were considering and had some great input (both with music and just in general) about how to make what we were envisioning work better. Jason has a clear understanding of what works and what doesn’t, but he is experienced and confident enough to find ways to incorporate the things we wanted. He gave us feedback on the playlist we put together for our pre-ceremony cocktail hour and was easily able to augment it with others songs that matched the feel perfectly. On the day fo the wedding, Jason handled everything like a true professional. He coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors and quickly worked out a couple tiny details we had overlooked, creating zero additional stress for us. He touched-base with us as needed and provided fantastic real-time coordination of everything. We basically left the dance part of the evening up to him. We provided a few “must plays”, a couple “don’t plays” and a handful of “would be nice”. Other than, it was all him. He kept the dance floor full for nearly 2.5 hours with a great selection and progression of music. We had a number of friends and family comment on the great job they thought Jason did. We were so thrilled with Jason and how easy he was to work with. He made the process smooth and about as stress-free as it could possibly be. We are really glad we got to work with Jason specifically, but we also wouldn’t hesitate to work with another DJ if Jason gave them the thumbs up. 

He clearly knows what makes a wedding work. Thanks for everything Jason! You were a big part of making our wedding fanatics for us and our guests. - Derek and Becky Lowe

Jason did a wonderful job DJ’ing our reception! He was very hands-on throughout the entire night – from cocktail hour to the last song – which was great. He guided the room from the cocktail hour, through speeches and into the dance seamlessly, which is something that we haven’t seen at many weddings. Also, he made sure our wedding party, family and all of our guests felt welcome and comfortable the entire night. And he knew where our coordinator was at all times, making sure that he was connected on what was happening. When it came to the song selection, we gave him free reign to choose for the most part. My husband and I picked about 10 songs (5 must-haves, 5 nice-to-haves) and then let Jason read the room for the rest. He did a great job of making sure as many people as possible were out on the dance floor. Overall, my husband and I would definitely recommend Jason (and his company) to others!

Let’s get the party started! That is exactly what Jason from Three Six Sound did for my son’s wedding. Jason Hanson is amazing. We could not be happier with our decision to go with him to create a wedding to remember forever. He hands down made the reception everything we wished for and more. He also was such a pleasure to work with, having constant communication and being flexible on his end. My son’s number 1 priority for his wedding was the dance, and Jason more than exceeded our expectations. He was very accommodating and cared about making the day be exactly what my son and his fiancé were envisioning for their wedding. Jason was very professional and went above and beyond to make sure that everyone enjoyed every moment. He has an ability to read the crowd and the perfect intuition for when to raise and lower the energy level. He worked with us on a surprise “flash dance” which went off without a hitch. From the first song, the dance floor was immediately full, and it didn't empty for the rest of the night. We would highly recommend him and his company if you are planning a wedding or any other celebration. I had several members of my family and other guests comment on how great the DJ was. He did a fantastic job!

Jason was an awesome DJ for our September Aria wedding. He was so fun to work with (and willing to meet for beers ahead of the wedding to get to know my husband and I), and we loved that he kept the dance floor full all night long. We particularly liked that he was not cheesy - he played the music we wanted him to play but didn't feel the need to overly "make himself known" which we appreciated. We would recommend him to any of our friends!

Jason is AWESOME! My husband and I could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding reception. It is extremely rare to have the opportunity to meet with a DJ even once before your wedding but we had the pleasure of meeting with Jason twice to hash out the details of our day and get to know him. Jason knows music and how to put songs together to make sure guests are partying all night long. We were very hands-off with planning music for our reception because we 100% trusted in his ability to run the show. This guy is worth it!

Jason was truly incredible and made our reception and dance everything we could have imagined. He takes care of all of your requests and does all of the "small" things to make the night even more special which really separates himself from other DJ's that I've observed at weddings. From helping introduce speeches, anniversary dance and then getting everyone involved in the dance, Jason truly does it all. The dance floor was packed from the moment the music started all the way to the final song. He does a great job of mixing the music so all ages are engaged. We got so many compliments from our guests stating how much they loved the dance. On top of that the venue staff stated that it was the most consistently packed dance floor that they had ever seen! Do yourself a favor and hire Jason, you will not regret it.

Andrew is absolutely incredible. We have been to multiple wedding that he DJ’d at, so when we got engaged, we knew he was going to be our DJ. His ability to keep my guests dancing when there was a huge blizzard outside is a huge testament to how amazing his skills are! Because the bridal party arrived at all different times, we needed to move things around and the entire timeline got condensed. Dances moved to after dinner, dinner was delayed, and through it all he kept the reception moving so smooth. It was important to me for kids to be entertained, so shortly after dinner, he played kid-friendly music to keep them dancing and tire them out. His ability to read the audience and adjust accordingly is something that can’t be taught. He is SO talented and I would recommend him to anyone!

Jason was recommended by our venue (Commodore Bar & Restaurant in St. Paul) and was great to work with. Professional, knowledgeable, and worth every penny. Even our guests took notice of how good he is. Highly recommend him.

Three Six Sound was fabulous and we couldn't have been happier with not just the wedding day but also all of the coordination and transparency leading up to it. Jason Hanson was very responsive, organized and easy to coordinate with. Andrew Tolzmann, our DJ, was incredibly thoughtful, attentive and generous with his time. He is brilliant at what he does, which goes beyond merely playing music and into being an expert MC. Throughout the whole process he gave us every confidence that he had a wealth of experience and knew many tricks of the trade to work well with vendors, make for seamless transitions between activities, put speech-givers at ease, and spin music that was sure to get every generation on the dance floor and keep the party going late. We couldn't have been happier with Three Six Sound. Working with them was a much more personal and high-touch experience than we believe we could have gotten with other companies. Thank you, Jason and Andrew, you were a pleasure to work with!

Jason did an outstanding job making our day special! From having a strategic set list to keep the party going all night long to seamlessly facilitating the evenings events we could not be more happy with Jason. In addition, Jason was a trusted partner throughout the planning process helping to guide us through important decisions and coordinating with our other vendors to make sure he was in sync.

Jason was seriously SO amazing. He made sure to make our wedding night perfect. He was so passionate about his job and it truly comforted us through the entire planning process! We met twice in person, and talked a few times via phone/email. I never had a doubt in my mind that he wouldn't make our night perfect! You can tell in his voice and how he responds how much he truly cares to make our night special! And it really was, our entire wedding party and a lot of our guest were out on the dance floor all night till the very last dance!! Jason really knows what he's doing and made our wedding a forever amazing memory that we won't ever forget! Thank you so much!

Jason was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was able to learn my wants and needs and he accommodated them perfectly. We met 2 times before the wedding, and after the 2nd meeting I felt we were already on the same page. He is very personable and it shows in his quality of service and execution during the event. His choice of music during the entire night was applauded and my guests raved about the playlists, that I had nothing to do with... I give Jason an A+++ and would recommend him in a heartbeat.

I wish I could leave six stars. I cannot say enough to illustrate just how great Jason was for us. My wife (still pretty weird to call her that!) and I were brought together by our passion for electronic music, and as such had highly specific needs for our wedding DJ. I could not be more thrilled that we ended up going with Jason. For starters, being able to meet with him and get on the same page about everything before the wedding was a huge plus, and he was extremely accommodating in assisting us to get our music picked out and properly organized for the big day. He let me put together a playlist that we ran all through the social hour and into dinner. Then once the dance portion of the night began, we turned over the reins to him for the first hour and a half so that he could create a welcoming environment with some widely appealing music, and he absolutely crushed it. We had a full dance floor all night long! Then once the majority of the 60+ crowd had toddered off to bed, he threw on another of my custom playlists for the last hour of the dance and we got to let loose to the heavy bass music that brought Alissa and I together in the first place. As I run into people that were there for the first time after the wedding, one of the first things that everybody mentions is how wonderful the DJ was. He is versatile and enthusiastic without ever crossing the line into cheesy or forced. He guided the evening masterfully while still letting the two of us feel like we had ultimate creative control over the experience. Hiring Three Six Sound was easily some of the best money we spent at our wedding and I will not hesitate to recommend him effusively to any and all of my friends who get married in the Twin Cities area.

Jason gave us the most fun night of our lives. Our guests cannot stop talking about our reception and how much of a blast the dance was. We met with Jason prior to our wedding after he provided us a worksheet of how we wanted our night to "flow" along with what songs we wanted to play. During the meeting, Jason went over our vision with us and talked music. It made us feel really confident going in to our big day knowing that Jason "got it." The set he played was so awesome, I can't even put into words how amazing he put together the music set list. He knew the music genres we liked and created a set that got EVERYONE dancing and singing a long. Everyone from my grandma to my bridal party to my 4 year old niece was dancing. Jason doesn't go "rogue" - he listens to what you want and works around it with his musical expertise, fun loving nature and professionalism. We got the perfect wedding reception in large part to Jason from Three Six Sound and our guests enjoyed a night that none of us will ever forget. Thank you Jason and Three Six Sound!

Our wedding was 9/4/16 . We had the pleasure of working with Aaron. He did an amazing job of keeping people on the dance floor. What was great about working with Three Six Sound was we were able to meet Aaron beforehand and get to know his personality to make sure he would be a good fit. Aaron responded quickly to our emails and made great suggestions for our dance.

I don’t think I can find the words to express how much my husband and I appreciated Jason as our DJ at our wedding, but I will try! I was blown away by just my first inquiry with Jason via email. His response was very thorough and honest. We set up a meeting shortly thereafter where Jason spent over an hour talking to us about the DJ business, in general, and what we can expect if we hire him. We were blown away by his professionalism and we knew that he would not disappoint. The big day came and Jason was absolutely amazing. He really served as the glue that made the event run smoothly. The dance floor was never bare, and the ending to the dance was absolutely perfect. We got so many compliments on how well Jason did. I feel like most people don’t comment on the quality of the DJ when they talk about weddings, so this just goes to show how outstanding of a job he really did. Looking back at our wedding, there are a few things we would have done differently, but hiring Jason as our DJ was one of the best decisions we made. We can’t thank you enough, Jason!!!
