Tyler was amazing! He definitely kept the energy alive the whole night!
Rolando and crew were amazing! He made sure our ceremony had the perfect flow and got things started in cocktail hour. It was such a fear to have a boring dance floor and he knew e...
xactly how to keep us dancing all night long. He allowed requests, but did ask once if a particular genre was ok to play, as it differed from our prior preferences/song lists which I thought was very nice! Our Photo Booth was also amazing and getting all the digital photos was great!

Van Rixel Productions made our wedding day an absolute dream. Rolando (would HIGHLY recommend him) was a perfect match for my husband and I. One of the most common feedbacks we rec...
eived from guests was "Your DJ was amazing." And he was, he kept the party flowing and the dance floor was so much fun the entire night. The company itself was super easy to work with as well. They were always quick to answer any questions we had, whether it was via email or by phone. We also went with the photobooth option from them - and we could not have been happier with it. We love looking back on all the pictures our guests took and it truly is something we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Another shout out to Rolando, you were seriously better than any DJ we could have ever hoped for on our wedding day! Word of advice to upcoming brides and grooms: DO NOT wait on booking with Van Rixel!
My wife and I had an excellent experience with Van Rixel Productions! David was our DJ and talked us through everything that we could expect for our day. We were grateful for the e...
xtra setup for our outdoor ceremony, and how smoothly David transitioned from ceremony to reception. We shared our Spotify playlist with requests via the online platform, and David used that to create the perfect set! Multiple guests commented on what a great job he did. A good DJ can keep the music playing, but a great DJ will read the crowd and respond accordingly, and David did just that. He kept the energy and engagement until the very end; he was professional, and extremely helpful with the small details. We had a great experience and would highly recommend him.
I have attended many weddings where Van Rixel Productions played all the hits and kept the dance floor packed. David is the consummate professional, warm, courteous, and entertaini...
ng. His Photo Booth is the gift that keeps on giving; we’ve loved the look of every logo and the memories last a lifetime.

e was patient, personable and professional. He didn’t hesitate to make last minute changes and help things flow. As things don't always go as planned and he just made it all work. On top of his professionalism his ability to read the dance floor and get people moving was worth applauding as well. There were people l've never seen nor thought I would ever see, dancing for hours. It was truly a memorable night and I'm so glad we went with Van Rixel.

red about making our wedding experience amazing. He kept the flow of the day going and even brought us drinks when our glasses were getting close to empty! Most importantly, he kept the dance floor packed and the flow of the music was perfect.
Van Rixel was great to work with from beginning to end! The communication during our initial conversations about booking was great and very helpful. They were never pushy and alwa...
ys responded promptly. When we got assigned our DJ, Collin, we had a video chat with him and were definitely put at ease. Collin was communicative, quick to respond, flexible, and had great attention to detail. On the day of the wedding everything went perfect and Collin and his assistant were so kind and attentive. Our guests who requested songs all mentioned how nice he was! We definitely had high expectations for a dj and Collin kept people on the dance floor the whole night and definitely listed to our opinions and suggestions during our video call. I have worked in the wedding industry in various capacties and have seen 100s of weddings and djs and I highly recommend Van Rixel!
We truly had an amazing time with John Sherman as our DJ from Van Rixel. John was able to read the crowd very well and play appropriate music the entire night. Also, he helped coor...
dinate the day of with announcements and introductions. Leading up to our wedding, he also met with us to learn more about us and what we were like as people to better tailor the experience to us.
I can't speak highly enough for how much John helped create a fun environment for our wedding and how much we appreciate his help that day.
My husband and I had no idea what we were doing when trying to hire a DJ for our wedding so we based our decision off of reviews. This lead us to Van Rixel and wow do they deserve ...
every great review that they get! They were so great communicating and answering all of our questions throughout our planning process. On the day, we had Collin as our DJ. He. Was. AMAZING! He was so organized and got all the details to make our day go so smoothly. He and his tech were constantly checking in with us to make sure that they were doing what we needed. They were great at reading the room and playing songs that the crowd loved. The energy Collin brought to the day was just indescribable! Every song he played he looked like he was having the best time as well. He really made our day and we had SO many compliments about him! Thank you Collin and Van Rixel for seriously making our wedding day amazing!
For the most part DJ Bentley was good, but we did have some issues. We had some traditional and none traditional aspects about our wedding. For one, my father passed so instead of ...
doing a father daughter dance my husband and I did a memorial dance. Bentley asked us several times if we wanted to do a standing tribute moment of silence. We told him at every time we did not. Day off, he did a standing moment of silence which caused several guests to complain they couldn’t see anything happening. There were a few instances were we had set specific instructions like this that did not go quite right. We also found out at the end of the night that he was charging for song requests. Had we known prior to the event we would have taken care of it and told him not to ask guests to pay for a song request. It was just surprising to us because this had never been brought up to us that song requests would be charged and we did talk about wanting guests to request songs. He also sang us a song at the end of the night. He has a nice voice, but it was just a bit awkward. He also had never heard of playing single ladies for the bouquet toss and that was a bit awkward in person day of as well.
However, the dance floor was packed all night, he kept us on time, checked in with us when helping coordinate with other vendors about decisions, had a very up beat personality, and made sure to play every song we requested and even made sure we were on the dance floor before playing them. All in all the day was a lot of fun. I do recommend this company as a DJ. We also did the photo booth and that was amazing! The attendant was so wonderful and everything ran very smoothly!
By far the best DJ I have ever seen. We hired Van Rixel Productions and Keith to DJ for our wedding after seeing him work his magic at our cousin's wedding.
Keith was amazing! He ...
made sure we were kept in the loop at all times and always asked if we needed anything during our wedding day. As a DJ specifically, he couldn't have done a better job. We had guests partying on the dance floor the entire night!
The only thing I would want people to be made aware of is the "Must Play List". You tier the songs you want played at your wedding during the set-up meetings and this is the highest priority tier. Event though it says must play, it isn't. We had songs on the list that weren't played, but we knew it was because Keith does his job well and kept people on the dance floor. We were fine with it since we requested any songs during the dancing that we absolutely wanted to hear, so I would recommend that everyone does the same even if you have them on a must play list.
All in all though, it was a fantastic experience! Anytime we ever need a DJ again, we're hiring Van Rixel and Keith!
I cannot say enough about how happy I am to have chosen Van Rixel! Mason was our DJ and he kept the dance floor full all night. We are so grateful for how responsive they were and ...
how smoothly every aspect of planning and the actual the wedding day went.

e best time. I love how customizable you can be with all the lights and extra things. My family and friends loved him and still talk about our wedding 4 months later.
My husband and I are above and beyond happy with Van Rixel Productions. We had an initial call with them to discuss our expectations and the kind of vibe we wanted for our wedding...
and reception and decided to hire them for our event.
Mason, our DJ, gave us a call to go over when we would like certain types of music played and when. We felt so relaxed going into our wedding day knowing Mason would be playing music for us to walk down the isle to. He was awesome at getting the crowd hyped and out on the dance floor. The kids absolutely LOVED him. He even last minute played a father/daughter mother/song song even though we had initially told him we didn't want that. I was so impressed that without skipping a beat he asked me what song I'd like for the dance and did it for us.
Great value, best atmosphere creators, and super friendly. I can't recommend them enough. I would hire them for another event in a heartbeat.
THANK YOU MASON AND VAN RIXEL!
We hired Van Rixel Productions for our wedding and were assigned Luke as our DJ. Van Rixel’s online portal made it extremely easy to select songs as must plays, do not play, and pl...
ay if possible. The online portal also allowed us to review and modify the timeline Luke created for us as needed after our initial meeting with him. On our wedding day, Luke did a great job adhering to our timeline and corralling guests when needed. We had a high energy group and Luke was able to keep everyone on the dance floor throughout the night. He played a majority of the songs we requested and played guest requests if they were in line with our style. We would recommend this vendor and Luke to anyone.
We actually found Van Rixel Productions through a wedding expo, which was great because we were able to talk with them first-hand before hiring them to get a feel for their service...
s and if their style of DJ service was what we were looking for. We eventually did hire them and have no regrets whatsoever. They made planning the entertainment and music portion of our ceremony and reception easy and painless. Their online portal is great because you can put all of our music requests on there for the DJ to review before your wedding date. Our DJ, Luke, was amazing. Very nice guy, easy to work with, kept the dance floor rocking all night long and played a good majority of the songs we had requested. He also kept an eye on our schedule and kept the night on track so we didn't have to. During the ceremony, he also worked well with our officiant so he knew when to cue music.
All around a great experience with Van Rixel Productions. I would recommend them to anyone.
We used Van Rixel Productions for our wedding ceremony and reception and had the BEST experience. We highly recommend using them for your DJ needs. From the very start, they had th...
e highest level of professionalism and responded almost immediately to our inquiry. The owner, David, called us personally to discuss our wedding vision and paired us with an amazing DJ, Rolando! Rolando was the perfect gentleman and went above and beyond to make our day special. He checked in with us regularly throughout the day to see if we ever needed anything, including setting aside our choice of desserts for us to eat later, and getting us drinks! He also did an amazing job capturing the music styles and general feeling we wanted for our night of dancing. We had so many guests compliment the music telling us how great Rolando was. And we couldn’t agree more! If we ever need a DJ again we know where to look. We can’t thank him enough for all his hard work, professionalism, great music, and calm demeanor that helped make our wedding day so special!

o keep things as simple as we wanted, with the ability to add on lots of extras (like a photo booth). We loved working with the company, and cannot say enough about our experience with Rolando. HE WAS AMAZING!!! He was easy to communicate with, and very responsive to our questions/requests/changes as the big day drew closer. As far as the day of the wedding, we were BLOWN away by his commitment to ensuring that we had the most excellent experience. He ensured that we always had a beverage in our hands (bride, groom, AND our girls <3), kept the music on track, and made sure everyone had the best time. He worked well with our other vendors and the venue coordinator as well. He always had a smile on his face, and you could tell how much he loved his job! We couldn't have asked for more!!
There are honestly not enough positive words to describe our experience with Van Rixel Productions. We utilized both their DJ and photo booth services for our wedding. Our guests h...
ad a blast with the photo booth and there was never a dull moment on the dance floor! The DJ, Keith, was beyond FANTASTIC!! Not only was he an absolute pleasure to work with, but he executed our requests for both our ceremony and our reception with perfection, and even got out on the dance floor to help guide our guests through the electric slide. We have received numerous compliments from our guests and we could not be happier with the quality provided by Van Rixel Productions. We are incredibly thankful for their contribution to making our wedding one of the most memorable days ever! Highly, highly recommend.
Denis with VanRixel Productions did an AMAZING job as our wedding DJ! Our dance floor was packed from the moment our first dances were over to the very end of the night when the ve...
nue had to tell everyone to stop boogying and get out! We have received so many compliments about how our guests have never been on such a fun dance floor. We loved that VanRixel had an online portal to submit song ideas, this helped Denis have an idea of the styles of music we wanted played throughout every part of our day. And it allowed us to highlight must-play songs! Highly highly recommend VanRixel!
I found out about Van Rixel from attending a bridal expo and am so glad we chose them! We did a Zoom meeting with David the owner and he was very personable and felt like they wer...
e take good care of us and we were right! Our DJ was Luke and he met up with us to discuss our song choices, things that were important to us and I felt like he did a great job. Our guests had a blast and were dancing the whole time and he was great at keeping everything moving along and keeping the party going.
David was our DJ and exceeded all of our already high expectations!! He was incredible and we would recommend him multiple times over!
We had an Indian & Persian Wedding involving...
multiple events, two wedding ceremonies, and a big party for the reception. This meant endless non-American names, ceremonial songs, instrumental songs being timed to certain parts of the ceremonies, and music in multiple languages (Telugu, Hindi, Farsi, English). David was honest with us and told us he hadn't necessarily worked in all of these languages before but he was up for the challenge. To say David went above and beyond is an understatement. It's been almost six months since the wedding, and we still have Indian, Persian, and American family & friends commenting on the DJ at our wedding, not just at the reception but during our ceremonies as well. To put this into more context, my husband and I weren't able to give song suggestions until a few days before the wedding and David took those suggestions, found even more songs, and crafted the best party & dance floor energy we could have asked for, bringing friends of all ages, young cousins, older relatives out on the dance floor until the very end of the night. He seamless melded Hindi, Telugu, Farsi and English music together in a way that kept the party going. David also went above and beyond working on name pronunciations. He asked us for audio recordings of all the important names that he would be announcing and practiced them on his own time and with us before the day of our wedding. We couldn't be more thankful for David & the Van Rixel team! They truly did an incredible job.

They are great to work with! I love the online portal, I could add, delete and give guidance to songs that were important to us. Keith was our DJ and he sure made us feel at ease! ...
With his experience, he was a great resource for timing, he suggested when to do the toast, when and how to walk in etc. He was above pleasant and our guests felt very much at ease with him! Just ask for Keith for your special event!!!
Van Rixel Productions was absolutely amazing to work with! Rolando was our DJ for our wedding and he went above and beyond our expectations. The team was extremely friend, easy to ...
work with and very attentive to our requests. Our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about their experience. Thank you so much for everything!!
Van Rixel Productions was the very best choice we could make for having music at our wedding. They offered great help and clear choices during our planning phase, they offered exc...
ellent music for our pre-ceremony cocktail hour, our the ceremony itself, and of course our dancing after dinner. They also helped to facilitate use of microphones during wedding speeches.
Our DJ and MC for the evening, Brian Dorn, was superb and handled everything with great professionalism while simultaneously ensuring everyone had great fun. Our crowd had a great range of ages and musical tastes, but he ensured everyone was happy with the songs and ceremonies and kept our evening on time and gave everyone appropriate introductions. His service demonstrates the high quality of Van Rixel Productions' team.

d songs to "must play" and "do not play" etc. playlists, which we thought was really cool. Our DJ was DJ Anthony, and he was the best! He mixed and blended songs so well so that it was a continuous dance party vs. just playing a playlist. We had many compliments! Overall, a great experience, and I would absolutely hire them all over again.

These guys were amazing to communicate with and were very professional. When we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID they moved dates with no questions/problems/additional fe...
es, which made an extremely hard decision so much better. They had an online portal to pick songs we wanted and didn’t want, as well as fill out a timeline which was very helpful. I HIGHLY recommend all brides fill that out to a T, as I ran out of time with everything else going on and maybe put in 30 of the max 60 songs you can enter on your web portal (for must play, play if time, dedication songs, and do not play). That ended up with our DJ playing some songs were didn’t love, which was fine, I just had to go ask him to switch it up. But their online setup prior to your wedding is so helpful, and I wish I had time to utilize it more. Our DJ also asked if we wanted to share a Spotify playlist with him he can go off that for ideas/suggestions. I didn’t have time to make that either but was a great idea!
There was one snafu with our slideshow equipment we rented not be available for our entire 6 hour night (the DJ needed the computer back) but the company was very quick to address this issue and very understanding.
Overall I would definitely use them again if given the opportunity! The sound quality was amazing, wireless mics worked great, and they were very easy to work with. I highly recommend them!

ew they were the DJs we wanted for our wedding. Meeting our DJ and talking about or day, we knew we hired the right people. They were all about providing a seamless and stress free day. Coordinating the day for us and with vendors, everything went perfect. Our DJ had everyone on the dance floor all night long, kindly room requests from guests and beautifully handled our music for a choreographed dance. I would recommend them to everyone who wants a professional DJ who goes more than providing music, they help run the whole day. Thank you for a wonderful day and night!
Would definitely recommend Van Rixel to anyone. Van Rixel was really great and easy to work with. They answered every question we had in timely manner and put on a great party. We...
were fortunate to have both David and Bentley as our DJ's. Everything was very professional and we had zero issues. One really nice touch was Bentley singing a song for just us on the dance floor. They did a really great job and helped make our day special.
I highly recommend Van Rixel productions to anyone looking for a wedding DJ! We hired VRP to do our wedding right before COVID really hit the U.S., and as a result, we had to resch...
edule our event three times. VRP was WONDERFUL through all of those changes! They were always quick communicators and super understanding. Shortly before our actual day, our DJ experienced an emergency that made him (quite understandably) unable to DJ, but my husband and I never had to sweat it, because VRP immediately had Anthony available to step in. Anthony did such an incredible job during our ceremony and reception, and was so easy to work with! Really, I have only positive things to say about the team over at VRP.
I loved my DJ experience at our wedding. our dj Luke did a great job at asking us what we wanted but not bothering us too much and keeping everything on time and the party moving! ...
they worked well with my photographers and the venue event coordinator. my only small complaint was I had to ask about meeting my dj at the one month mark and which dj I was assigned to and I wish they would have been a little more on top of letting me know this information. They had no problem sending me a bill promptly at one month but I had to ask for the meeting that was supposed to come with my package. However. once I did ask for that meeting and got the ball rolling they were FANTASTIC. I would definitely recommend them.
We used Van Rixel for our wedding reception and they did a phenomenal job! The DJ was very communicative before and during the event and really helped everything run seamlessly!
