I can not express how great DJ Ethan was with everything. When we first reached out to him he answered all of our questions and we felt comfortable hiring him. Then after we officially hired him he sent us a form that was easy to use and outlined everything the DJ would have to know on our wedding day. We had a final phone call with him to go over the events for the day. When wedding day arrived everything was perfect and VERY organized. Ethan kept the party going and although we had a pretty big list of recommended songs, he played to the crowd the whole night. The dance floor was always full of people dancing. The lighting he offered was perfect and provided a mix of elegance (during dinner) and a party atmosphere (dancing after dinner).

We found DJ Ethan through a random internet search and it was the best call! We did a zoom chat with him pre-wedding and I even emailed him changes the night before the wedding and he NAILED it!! We had an absolute BLAST at the wedding and I know Ethan was a large part of that! DJ’s help set the tone at a wedding and read the room and he did an excellent job at that! He was so easy to work with! My husband and I didn’t really know what we were doing and had some unique ideas for the wedding and Ethan helped make all of that happen and just made the whole process easy. Would 100% recommend!

Ethan was awesome and very easy to work with. Our ceremony, reception tent, & dance floor were all in 3 different areas of the the venue but he made everything as seamless as could be. He was able to adapt with any changes that came up on the fly and was able to direct the crowd just as we had planned. We also had the package that included the photo booth, which all of the guests loved. Highly recommend!

Where to even start here. Ethan was amazing!! He went above and beyond. We had him handle everything in regards to music choice, location preference, etc. He did both our ceremony and reception. He went above and beyond and I couldn't be more happy.

Ethan was awesome - we had him handle the music for everything from the ceremony through the cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing, which included setups in 3 different rooms. We had someone sing one of our songs using a custom track and there were absolutely no issues. His online form to complete ahead of time was super thorough and even helped me think of things I hadn’t before. He took care of everything flawlessly and we had SO much fun on the dance floor. Photo booth was great, easy to use, the kiddos at the wedding LOVED it, there were unlimited prints, and we loved going through the Zip drive of all the photos after. Overall great experience!

AMAZING SERVICE! Ethan was so easy to communicate with before day of and he executed our wishes perfectly for both ceremony and reception! We elected for Ethan to select most of the songs for the dance section of the reception and he did not disappoint - guests and us loved every song! We also used his photobooth service - excellent setup, materials, print outs, and digital copies of all photos!

I cannot recommend Tipton Entertainment enough. Ethan was very helpful with planning and his detailed questionnaire helped us schedule our event. DJ Emily was fantastic, played all of our requested music and threw in some great additional songs! Thank you to Ethan and Emily for making our special day perfect!

Ethan was fantastic! Prior to the wedding, he gave us a very detailed questionnaire that really helped in planning out the whole day. We had a phone call about 2weeks prior to highlight any details and finalize questions. We chose to have Ethan cover both the ceremony and reception and we're happy we made the choice. We had a few instrumental songs for the ceremony and everything went perfectly. During the reception, Ethan helped make our wedding come to life while being professional, organized, and flexible. We had a buffet-style dinner and Ethan organized the table calling.
We also added a Photo Booth through Tipton Entertainment and I think it was one of my favorite parts of the night. We decided on a photo album guest book where guests could insert their photo strips and write a small note above. Ethan’s photo booth was super cool and chic (it was this white, inflatable booth); and he provided the best props (and so many)!
We highly recommend Tipton Entertainment!!

Ethan was great to work with, he was professional and easy to communicate with. He stuck to my requests to the T, even when guests at my wedding were pestering him. :) My event was small and simple and I was worried about the vibe for a sunday afternoon with a DJ but I think Ethan did an amazing job and we had so much fun!

10/10 experience! Ethan was wonderful and even acted as our officiant as we were already legally married, but he made sure he went above and beyond to get licensed just in case. He was so great to work with and our ceremony was beautiful. Everyone had such a great time at our reception, too! He made it so easy for us.

We were extremely pleased with our DJ, Ethan! He was so kind, professional yet down to earth, easy to work with, helpful when we had any questions, and all at a great price!
He gives you a form to fill out which is very helpful in helping to organize your music for wedding day. He is great on the mic and getting our guests excited. What we also loved about him was that he isn't like some DJ's we talked with who are very pushy. Before we found our DJ from Tipton Entertainment we actually had talked to a DJ from a different company who told us that we should just let HIM play the music HE feels is best for our wedding. And that if we played our music then our guests would want to leave early! That other DJ's attitude made us turn him away and then we found Ethan Tipton.
We are VERY happy that we found Tipton Entertainment! Ethan was great! He played some of the music that we asked him to play AND played some great wedding music that helped get our guests up and dancing as well!
Tipton Entertainment is wonderful in every aspect, we highly recommend them!

This DJ is basically false advertising. Please don’t make the same mistake as we did. DO NOT BOOK THIS DJ as you will be extremely disappointed! Bad service, bad communication, bad everything. Happy searching! Hope you find a great fit for your perfect day as this DJ is not the answer! :)

Oct. 2, 2021 was a BEAUTIFUL day for a wedding …. Except for the DJ. I thought this day was was supposed to be about the bride and groom but apparently the DJ (Emily) thought other wise. She acted like this was the first wedding she had ever been a DJ at, not to mention she wasn’t even the DJ that the bride booked. What DJ messes up the entrance song for the bride and groom, can’t cut a song or make quick song transitions? I do not recommend Emily as a DJ for any wedding!

Unfortunately we did not have the experience with Tipton Entertainment that has been reviewed previously. After attending 6 weddings this year, I can say that this is not the DJ service I would be hiring for my wedding. I was the maid of honor in my sisters wedding and was present during the DJ presentation of Tipton Entertainment. My sister hired Ethan for DJ services after reading great reviews about his services. She was disappointed when she was informed that she would have an alternate employee (Emily) for her wedding day. My interaction over a zoom call with Emily was unpleasant and made me feel as though making my sisters day special was not a priority to this company. During the ceremony, the wrong songs were played. During the wedding party walk out we started to walk out and she started to play the wrong song. The whole night Emily sat down behind her station and did not interact with guests and make for a fun environment, as I have seen plenty of other DJ’a do. She continued to walk up to the bride and ask question after question, instead of consulting with her day of coordinator on the timeline of the day. I found this to be very disruptive, as she was trying to visit with guests and enjoy her wedding day. I unfortunately cannot say that I would recommend this entertainment company to a friend.

Ethan was great at our wedding! He arrived on time and set up exactly where we asked him to. The ceremony music was loud enough and switched songs exactly at the right time. The audio worked great and our guests could hear the entire ceremony. The reception was equally as great. He was able to set up in the loft for us, which other DJs did not agree to do. He announced all events and played our requested songs. He had people on the dance floor all night! I also highly suggest the uplighting option with the monogram, they looked great in our venue.

Thank you so much Ethan, for helping make our day perfect!

Ethan Tipton of Tipton Entertainment was the ideal DJ for our event: he communicates well, responds to emails promptly, and yearns to help couples plan and execute their special day. His wedding questionnaire is very thorough and helped us nail down specifics we hadn't considered. His execution of service on the day of our wedding for the ceremony and reception was perfect, and our guests loved both the music and the photobooth. We couldn't be happier!

Ethan Thank You So Much!! I can’t express my gratitude enough! I first contacted Ethan while I was deployed in Afghanistan, he was happy to provide me with the information of the multitude of services that Tipton Entertainment can provide. Payments were easy to do. When it came down to the wedding day the set up for the DJ was nice, beautiful, and clean. Ethan set up inside and out, Lights that matched our wedding colors, a custom light with Ryan and I’s name on it, microphones were giving to the minister, and the wedding party that gave speech’s. The music was clear, clean, and easily heard. Once is came to the reception Ethan got people on the dance floor!! We were dancing and having a good time. We even ended up paying extra for him to stay longer! I attached some photos with this review hopefully this helps!! Thank you again!!!

I want to start by saying that DJ Jeff from Tipton Entertainment did such an amazing job. He was there early to set up for the ceremony and then was easily able to transition to happy hour and the reception. Everything ran smoothly, and I didn’t have to worry about anything that day as the bride. He utilized all of the “Must Play” songs on our list that we created. I also want to say that the information pages that you fill out for them is incredible thorough and really helps you to create a timeline for the day and not miss any aspect. I would definitely book them again for any other event. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Ethan for our wedding. He was amazing from start to finish. AFFORDABLE! For amazing service. The package we chose had a photobooth and it was a HUGE hit! (You even get a flashdrive of all the pictures) A lot of our wedding plans had to change due to covid. He made everything so easy during such a stressful time. He Dealt with my multiple zoom calls to make sure everything went smooth and it was the absolute perfect day. I had an amazing experience with Ethan and i would recommend his company for anyone in need of a professional dj!

Ethan was absolutely amazing! He played all of our favorite songs, and smoothly transitioned everything throughout the reception including special dances, relaxed music while eating, and then bumping up the excitement with the dancing until the end of the evening! He was very patient when we had to switch some things around that weren't on the original planned schedule and we cannot be any more grateful! Our ceremony was perfect with his extra sound system so all of our guests could hear what was being said with it being an outdoor ceremony by a creek with noisy water. We are 100% recommending Ethan to anyone that is looking for a DJ!

I highly recommend Ethan! He was so professional, organized, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. When we were running behind schedule visiting the tables of our over 200 guests, he had back up plans to keep our reception running smoothly and perfectly so that we had plenty of time for our dollar dance, anniversary dance, bouquet throw, cake cutting, and lots of dancing. We had a lot of specific songs that we wanted played, and Ethan made sure that the music was exactly what we wanted. We really appreciate his attention to detail and flexibility. He made our reception a blast! Thanks, Ethan!

Ethan is extremely professional and very knowledgable. He was able to suggest equipment and lighting which exceeded our expectations. He even created a custom setlist for us that everyone loved it! I am usually pretty obsessed with controlling music, but he did a great job adding music based off the information we filled out. Absolutely no complaints at all!

Tipton Entertainment was a wonderful decision for us for our wedding! As a bride, I was obviously nervous about booking vendors that I just looked up online and read reviews for. But Ethan made sure I had nothing to worry about and our ceremony and reception were seamless, largely because of his organization and professionalism. Our wedding reception was inside a tent and the uplighting that we had in our package really helped bring it together! The music that he played was all really good and great to dance to. He also transitioned really well between each step.
Ethan was very easy to work with and flexible with the timeline for anything that arises... like me realizing I didn't have my garter on about 45 seconds before the bouquet toss! LOL! All in all, highly recommend.

When trying to find a DJ we struggled at first people suggesting this one and that one. However we found Tipton Entertainment and they got back to us immediately. They were prompt and informative with there follow up answers. On the day of Our Wedding they arrived on time and had everything set up as needed. Every detail we wanted they completed! Down to the individual songs for bridal party members to enter to for the reception!! All songs were played as requested and during the proper times. They also kept the guests engaged in dancing throughout the entire evening!! Definitely Highly Recommend Them!!

Ethan was a pleasure to work with. He was flexible to deal with our specific venue setup which required multiple sound systems. He arrived early to the venue to set up and we barely noticed him during that process. He followed our music requests to a T. His prices were extremely reasonable. For a fun, easy-going DJ- choose Ethan!

Ethan did an excellent job as our wedding DJ! Everyone was impressed by his playlist, which included a mix of classic rock, pop, and modern dance music. People are still telling us how great he was! He even helped the groom's brother perform a Frank Sinatra song for everyone by providing a backing track! We would definitely book Ethan again!
