They also use an App called vibo where you are also able to fill out a questionnaire and list out what you want and don’t want at your event. I really enjoyed working with DJ Holiday. He arrived early, maintained professionalism, and stayed very flexible as our timeline kept moving around as the event progressed.

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

The Djing was better than I could've imagined - DJ Demarkus was extremely organized upfront, provided a fantastic emcee who hit all the important cues, and made amazing song choices that kept our dance floor alive all night long. He took our relatively small playlist and seamlessly transitioned between songs, making great in-the-moment choices that matched the energy of the crowd.

Exemplar Sound provided excellent DJing. They provided, set up, and broke down all necessary sound and lighting equipment so that we did not have to worry about it at all. Our DJ for the wedding was Christian. He did a great job playing all of our ceremony, cocktail/dinner hour, and itinerary music just as we requested. He was very responsive and flexible, playing many of our requested dance songs while adding his own suggestions to the mix to help get and keep guests on the dance floor at our small-medium wedding (70 guests). He even came out onto the dance floor at one point to dance with and pump up the crowd! We definitely recommend this DJ service!

Born and raised in the Metro Detroit area. DJ iamchase is not just the #1 Celebrity Dj in West Michigan. He is also a Tour Dj, Record Breaker, and a Host. All while DJing Weddings, Corporate events, Concerts, and Night Clubs.

We had Terrell as our DJ for our wedding and could not be more happy with him! It was a little nerve racking having a meeting so close to the big day but Terrell and Derek both made us feel comfortable that everything would go smoothly. On the day of the wedding Terrell was at a venue he has never worked at before but set up and communication was seamless. He kept the party going and had the dance floor packed all night (one of the most important things for us that night). We didn't give him a playlist; just more like some guidelines and he did an amazing job. He came up to me and my husband to ensure we were happy (and even fed!). He communicated with me and the photographer to ensure all the big moments were captured before the photographer had to leave which was so nice because the thought to do that had not even occurred to me. We can not wait to recommend them more to anyone getting married or throwing an event. Thank you so much Terrell and Derek!!!!
