Adam was so great as our DJ! We loved getting to chat with him multiple times before the big day and he did a great job. He also let me try out the turn tables and that was super fun!

  • Starts at $650
  • Serves Dowling, MI

I planned our entire wedding and reception and coordinated it all, too. My new bride told me that with my personality, my intense desire to always provide phenomenal customer service, my love of music, my business skills, and the awesome job I did with our wedding and reception, I should start doing it for other couples. The dream was born, and a year later, we were in business. That was 10 years ago. It has been an awesome ride!

My husband and I had been to several weddings with Ace Wedding DJs as a vendor, and several without. Let me tell ya, there is a big difference! We knew we needed Ace Wedding DJs for our wedding this past June and they did not disappoint! Our lead DJ, Avery Echols worked closely with our other vendors to make the night run so smoothly. My husband and I truly did not have to think about anything and could just enjoy the night! Avery also CRUSHED the vibes!! After letting him know our top priority was making it a party and ensuring our guests had fun, he kept the dance floor packed all reception. Our booking coordinator, Wes Echols, was also great to communicate with. He always had very quick responses, provided us with a comprehensive and thoughtful questionnaire for the ceremony and reception, and was overall very helpful. We could not recommend Ace Wedding DJs more!!

We first discovered Derald while attending a friend’s wedding where he was the DJ, and we instantly knew we wanted him for our own wedding. Derald is truly the life of the party and did an exceptional job at our celebration. Countless guests commented on how he brought incredible energy to the event. What stood out to me the most was his ability to read the room—whenever the energy started to dip, he would jump in, start dancing, and get everyone back on the dance floor having an amazing time.

Toast and Jam DJs 

4.9

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,850
  • Serves Dowling, MI

Toast & Jam DJs specialize in making people dance by working closely with our clients to create customized playlists that reflect their tastes. We reject line dances, props, and other gimmicks in favor of perfectly planned and well-timed soundtracks that appeal to every partygoer. That means no Hokey Pokey and no Chicken Dance. At Toast & Jam, we believe that a thoughtful mix of pop favorites, hip-hop bootyshakers, Motown classics, and timeless standards are fun and self-respecting alternative to those embarrassing and played-out dancefloor clichés.

When we reached out to wedding DJs, we knew two things: Music was important to us, and we had no idea how to map things out for our big day. Toast and Jam's website was indicator alone that they might have the right vibe, but only when my fiance started bonding with the DJ over obscure bands during the intro call did I know we'd hit the jackpot. ("I like pop music!" I squeaked out, feeling a bit silly.) I've been to a lot of weddings, and I know how much difference an engaged DJ can make. I never imagined our dance floor would be packed for the full three hours, or that we would have such calm and clear guidance from our Toast and Jam team. Paul was organized, dedicated, and consistently went above and beyond. And I mean above and beyond! When I broke my foot two weeks ahead of our big day, a lot of our first dance dreams went out the window. Paul helped cut down two songs to a shorter edit, and he made the brilliant suggestion to bring the guests out during the father/daughter dance, which packed our dance floor from the jump.
