Integral DJs

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,990
  • Serves Des Moines, WA

Integral DJs is the Pacific Northwest's premier music provider, renowned for creating dance parties of a lifetime. The team builds off of your favorites & reads the room for a high-energy, never cheesy experience you’ll remember forever!

Hiring Integral DJs was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Working with Marc and Tone was a dream and we were blown away by their communication, organizational tools, friendliness, and execution. It was so important to us to have a wedding DJ that was not cheesy and wow did this team deliver that. Part of the planning process was to fill out a detailed spreadsheet including timeline details, your genre and song preferences, venue needs and more. It was so reassuring to have this to ensure the day went smoothly and it got us thinking about details we hadn’t even considered and we’re so glad that we did. While the preparation for the day was professional and detailed, it was not too time consuming which was so helpful during a busy wedding planning process. All aspects of the ceremony including microphones and professional/recessional were executed perfectly by Tone, as well as the cocktail hour music, first dance song and speeches. It’s been almost a month since our wedding and we still have guests talking about how great the DJ and dance party was. Tone had our group dancing so hard that the floor of the rooftop we were on was literally bouncing. His song selection was excellent, he was attentive to song requests that stuck with the vibe, and his transition from song to song was seamless and had us feeling like we’d been transported to a club. Besides the excellent execution on the wedding day, Tone was just a delight to spend the day with and was so friendly and hyped, giving is so much energy and joy! Thank you Integral DJs for playing such a huge part in making our wedding day the best day ever.

Gal was fantastic at reading the crowd and playing the perfect songs to keep everyone engaged and having a great time. One of the highlights of the evening was the shoe game, which Gal led with great humor. It was a hit with all our guests and added a fun, memorable touch to our reception.

Dancehall Days regularly performs throughout the Western United States, Hawaii, United Kingdom and Bahamas.

We cannot recommend Dancehall Days enough! We wish we could get married all over again just for the music. This band absolutely nailed our wedding in Jackson Hole, and we are still in awe of how incredible they were. My husband and I were so focused on having an amazing band that would get everyone dancing and fit our specific music taste. Not only did they travel all the way from Oregon, but they also made the entire process so easy and enjoyable from start to finish. From the moment we reached out to them, they were a breeze to work with—so friendly, professional, and attentive to our needs. They went above and beyond, learning several special songs for us and ensuring every detail was perfect for our big day. The energy they brought to the reception was unmatched, and they kept the dance floor packed all night long. Safe to say we wanted the band to be the highlight of the night, and they were exactly that. And when it came to the Fleetwood Mac (and even some tough Motown!!) covers? They absolutely killed it! We were beyond thrilled with how they brought those iconic songs to life, just as we had hoped. Every song was performed with such passion and skill, and it made for some seriously magical moments. If you're looking for a band that can deliver incredible live music, great vibes, and a personal touch, Dancehall Days is the way to go. They truly helped make our wedding night unforgettable, and we are so grateful for their talent and energy. I can't wait to catch them at one of their gigs and dance the night away again soon! Thank you, Dancehall Days, for making our celebration everything we dreamed of and more! You guys are incredible! See you soon!

The Afterparty is your non-stop party show band! With entertaining & fun choreography, costumes and props, audience interactions, and seamless non-stop music sets, this dynamic group brings an unforgettable spark to every performance!

The Afterparty Band and their Duo was one of the best choices we made for our wedding of 100 people! The Duo also set a great ambiance to our outdoor Cocktail Hour. Now, our guests are still talking about how much fun they had dancing and singing along with the band all night. We loved the visuals with lighting, dancing, costume changes, and props. My husband and I couldn’t find time to leave the dance floor because their compilations just flow from one to the next. At first I thought our party would be too small for an 8-piece band at the reception, but they were the perfect addition to build up the crowd and keep everyone together on the dance floor. They even came into the crowd to sing and play instruments to stir up enthusiasm. My only regret was not having more time to chat with our guests for longer because we simply couldn’t peel ourselves off the dance floor. Tristan and Jeff are so responsive, and they were able to work with both me and my wedding coordinators directly to take some of the logistics off my plate. It was also very fun working with the band for all requests. They learned our first dance song so quickly and even sent me a sample of a shortened version of the song to practice to with my husband. They are a wonderful band for any kind of event, large or small, that you want your guests dancing all night with happy hearts.

His expertise in event conduction and his ability to smile in the face of chaos kept everything organized and on track, even when the weather threw us a curveball. He helped redirect guests seamlessly when we had to adjust the schedule due to high winds and rain. His musical selections were spot on, providing great background music during dinner and keeping guests engaged on the dancefloor with an intuitive mix of songs we requested along with well-timed classics. Zacch went above and beyond by playing music late into the night after being informed by the camp hosts that he would need to spend the night at the venue due to an atmospheric river and downed trees blocking the road. He kept the party going as late as he could and afterwards spent time chatting fireside as the night wound down. Zacch has a charisma that keeps even your most ornery guests engaged and well behaved. He’s an excellent person on and off the turntable.

I’ve always wanted to be a musician and ended up becoming fascinated with mixing tracks in my free time, soon turning into a full time gig as a professional Weddings & Events DJ. I’m happy to say that since my first performance as a DJ, I have had the opportunity to work with many amazing clients and gain invaluable experience. Feel free to contact me regarding my rates and available dates. I can assure that you won’t regret working with me.

Oh my Goodness!!! Tank did an amazing job providing DJ services for my mother’s birthday!!! He was on time, played all requested songs and brought life to the party!! He was able to adjust music selections based of crowd (array of ages) while keeping everyone engaged!!! Thank you so much!! A blessing to have you

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Sometimes when going for the more reasonably priced vendors, there’s a risk of skimping on the quality. We found that this is not the case with Cession Nation and we are incredibly grateful to have worked with them. Ty and his team were SO communicative, professional, and timely!!! We had a camp themed wedding on an island which can be a challenge- they were very flexible and prepared! Our guests loved the fun atmosphere which they provided. And as music lovers, my husband and I also really liked the app where we could customize playlists for our special day. It was a perfect mix of ‘tailored to us’ and ‘give the people what they want’ and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ! :)

Jake and Mike were fantastic, we got so many compliments on everything from the dinner music to the main event. They even accommodated a late addition ask of them to cover the ceremony which as the Bride I had no time for. Couldn't be more pleased, Jakes communication was outstanding and really put my mind at ease knowing I wouldn't have anything surprises to worry about!

Frankie was such a pleasure to work with and he delivered an unforgettable wedding day for us! As the DJ, he kept things flowing seamlessly between events from the ceremony to open dancing. And once open dancing started, he really kept the high energy going throughout the night. He took the songs in our playlist and did an excellent job at making sure everyone was having fun and keeping the music going. He was also super accommodating: made our somewhat chaotic ideas work and adjusting to last minute requests. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a DJ for their wedding!

There are wedding bands, and then there’s The Hook Club. The minute we heard them at one of their showcase experiences we knew we had found the purveyors of soul and energy that we were looking for. The Hook Club played a major role in making our wedding reception an unforgettable celebration. The energy they brought was simply electric and it’s no surprise that we received countless compliments from friends and family about how much fun they had. The band was engaging and created a vibrant atmosphere on the dance floor. Beyond their music the band also left us fun messages on our audio guestbook.

We worked with Summit Events for our wedding and had an amazing time! Ben was our DJ and was involved through the entire process (from booking all the way through our event) - both during and after our wedding our guests raved that Ben was the best DJ they’ve ever had at a wedding! We also used Summit Events for a Photo Booth at our reception and our guests loved it.
