Complete Weddings + Events - DJs Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

See all

Update: They finally agreed so long as I pretty much signed a contract that read like an NDA we told them that we won't be signing it and it was unlawful, was supposed to get it figured out before our honeymoon but it's been about 11 days since we heard anything had to go into our honeymoon with no solution. Pretty sad that we weren't pleased with said service so we ask for a return and in order to get our return we have to police our wedding guests and ourselves to keep our mouths shut about our own wedding. This business is a half-ass, insincere, unprofessional company. read more

I am so relieved we ended up going with Complete Weddings!!! I first saw them at the wedding fair in St Paul and thought it was too good to be true. After meeting with the owner and having numerous frantic phone calls with Ari in the office about various details I knew I was in good hands. I was so happy to know that the people at my event were a team and worked together well. My photographer was amazing and got all the shots we requested. She even taught us some new group dances and got the crowd in on it. Our dj nailed the ceremony tunes and the reception was bumping. He was hilarious and kept the party going and the photo booth was a massive hit! I love that we got copies of the photos they are really fun to look back at! I cannot say enough good things about this company! read more

Our individual DJ and photographer were great and definitely made up for how disorganized the company is as a whole. The woman who was meeting with us initially (over Zoom) to go over pricing and services was 45 minutes late- for a ZOOM call and didn't give an explanation as to why, which lead me to believe she forgot. Two weeks before the wedding our DJ (Greg "Azzy") reached out and met with us. He was fantastic- friendly and professional. However, the organization did not give him our planning forms we filled out, and I had to type them up on a word doc and submit to him. A week before the wedding I hadn't heard anything from photography and called to check up on it. I got a call back from the director of photography saying there was a miscommunication and she would be stepping in as the photographer since our assigned photographer didn't follow up with us. However, to no fault of her own, she had to pull out two days before the wedding. Luckily, our new photographer (Ashely) was great and did a fantastic job. She showed up on time, was creative, and easy to work with. I feel like we definitely lucked out and disaster was averted because of Greg and Ashley. Again, these two did a fantastic job. Had we not gotten Greg and Ashely, I don't think the day would've went as smooth as it did due to the poor organization of Complete Weddings + Events as an agency. read more

We've enjoyed having Matthew Sherry DJ and host our events for the past decade. He's personable, engaging, and really enjoyable to have around our events. We've also had the pleasure of having Michael and Ari at our events, covering them with videography and photography. Our most recent award show was live-streamed using the latest in live-stream equipment and WE LOVED IT! It looked amazing and came out perfectly. If you are looking for a DJ, Photographer, and Videographer for your event -- Complete is the place to go. read more

Complete Weddings + Events - Matt Sherry, DJ at one of our many events. - DJs Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Our DJ, Sean, went above and beyond our expectations on our wedding day. We originally met him at our venue for an open house and knew immediately he had the charisma and personality we were looking for in a DJ. Sean had great suggestions for activities to get our guests involved with our special day and offered music suggestions based on our style for different times of the evening. He is passionate about his craft, cares about the couples he works with, and brings a calm and easy going manner with him. All of our guests raved about how good he was & how much fun they had! If you book a DJ with Complete, book Sean! Also, we added uplighting to the historic venue where we had our ceremony & reception. It was money well spent! It brought a beautiful glow during the ceremony and dinner. We had the colors change for the dance which brought another layer of vibrancy to the evening! read more

Amanda was very accommodating and flexible, which was perfect for our wedding reception. She talked with us in advance of the event to get a feel for what we wanted and our style, and followed through. Her song selection was fantastic, she was very good at feeling out the crowd and selecting songs appropriate for us and our guests! read more

First of all my DJ was late and appeared to be on drugs. Second of all my uplighting showed up two hours late after our first dance! I was contacted by management and told I would be receiving a refund but no one will contact me again after this. I wouldn't recommend this company by any stretch of the imagination! read more

Our wedding was October 26,2013 at the Mayowood Stone Barn in Rochester, Mn. Mike from Complete was our DJ and we worked with Lesa to communicate information to our DJ. We met Brendon and Lesa at the Owatonna Bridal Fair in 2012. We talked with Mike the Thursday before our wedding to go over our details. We submitted a song list to Lesa via e-mail with the song and artist, which he had. We talked about how we wanted the night to flow. From our entrance to the traditional mother/son, father/daughter, when our speeches would be, we had a line dance, we didn't want to do the garter, bouquet toss, dollar dance etc.., we wanted polka played, then country, and later in the night more hip-hop dancing songs. We expressed to them that our song list consisted of the songs our guests wanted to hear. We asked for requests on our RSVP cards. They insisted that they would "see how the night goes" and "see how the crowed reacts". I get that, I understand that. We wanted people dancing obviously! He got the traditional dances done, and then he went right into hip-hop and rap. We got 1 polka song at 10pm at night all the older folks had already left for the night. But there were still a lot of people who go out and danced. He played about 10 songs from our guest request songs on our list and completely ignored what we wanted played. Mike came into the ladies dressing room prior to the ceremony to ask about our entrance (which we had clearly talked about on Thursday). He kept asking us if we wanted to play games which we did not want, we had already talked about that fact. We did contact Lesa and Brendon after our event because we were upset. They basically shoved it off saying "well we do not follow the standard flow anymore of how dances usually go because we do what guests want." I completely disagree with the way they handled our feedback from the event. They did the opposite of what the customer wanted and it honestly wrecked our whole night. Oh and by the way, I did submit a review on wedding wire and they "disputed it because they don't want a bad review". Childish!!! read more

Larry was our DJ for our wedding and he was amazing. Super easy to work with and had amazing choice of songs. You could tell he had a ton of experience. read more

What we loved most about Complete was the how seamlessly their packages/services fit without reception. We did not need a DJ or many other services, but we did want uplighting to accent the brick walls extending up to the 11-story high ceiling. Complete did just that! The uplighting was bright! It was not dim, small can lighting. The quality was excellent! We did not have to worry a bit about set up or take down, and the position of the lights was perfect. It was the venue enhancement we were looking for. Beyond that, Complete's pricing was unmatchable by any other vendor! We would highly recommend Complete - we are certain that their other services would be just as superb. read more

Horrible experience! We feel so hurt with the mediocre job they did. The photographer was drinking and talking with the DJ most of the time, so she missed all the great shots. The pictures she took were very unprofessional. She stood in one place and most of the pictures were taken from the same angle, in this case the back. People were cut out of the pictures. Showing only half your face and/or whole body. There were very few if any "Quality" pictures of the Bride and Groom. They took 2 1/2 months to give us the pictures and none of them were edited. Our heart is broken. Very disappointed. We called so many times to receive our pictures and no one took responsibility to address the issue. They always had the same excuse "It's that busy time of year". They offered to make a wedding album for us as an apology for all the hassle and poor service and we still have not received anything or heard from them. One of the most beautiful moments in our lives was and always will be ruined forever. I would absolutely never recommend these guys for anyone!!! read more

We used them for photo video and Dj. Our dj - Chris - was amazing. The video and photos were terrible. The video was not centered and they missed the most important moments in the ceremony. Couldn't see the bride from where he was standing. I cried watching their lack of quality of work. They also missed important photos of our guests. They said I would have to pay more even though they messed up because there video person stayed and got some of the reception. His camera was pointed at the wall. Didn't even get guests. Go somewhere else to save you the heartache afterwards! read more

Our DJ was unprofessional and creepy... I contacted COMPLETE several times after the wedding and they haven't followed up. We met with the DJ in advance and gave him all of the music for the entire evening on a Spotify playlist, which he said he always uses. He needed to do NOTHING other than play it. He played the wrong song when I walked down the isle (fairly upsetting but easy to get over), as well as songs that we hadn't put on the list during the dancing (also not a big deal because people were happy and dancing, that's what really matters!). THE WORST was that he was lurking around groups of ladies on the dance floor and around a table of my girlfriends (I heard about this after the wedding in the form of complaints from out-of-town friends) and then Mr Fedora Man was hitting on my sister... hard core, refusing to play songs (from our list!) unless she would slow dance with him and then telling her all about his dying wife!!!! Lastly, throughout the entire evening he smelled like a fresh cigarette. On a different note, we had Heather as our photographer and she was absolutely phenomenal. I would recommend her with my whole heart. We also had Stephen working the photo booth. Everyone loved it and he was great. read more

I went to a wedding with one of their many DJs, AJ Stone. He chose good music, but I, and at least two others at our table, found him to be pretty annoying whenever he talked. He just had a "douche"-y semblance to him, and he kept introducing himself---first to the whole room, then to our individual table "Hi, I'm AJ Stone, I'm the DJ/MC". We know, we heard you before! They probably have other good DJs, but I would definitely suggest meeting your prospective DJ before you commit. read more

I know this is going to be a long review, but here's the summary: having anything to do with Complete was one of the biggest mistakes in my life. Fifty years from now I will still regret having anything to do with them. We hired Complete to do the photography, video, DJ, and lighting for our wedding. For the video we paid to have two cameras set up during the ceremony. All was great until about two months after our wedding when we got a phone telling us that there was a problem with the video from our wedding and that they had nothing from before the first dance, so all they got was the dancing. From the start of that phone call on, it feels like they have given us nothing but dishonesty and half-truths. At first they tried to claim that it was a faulty memory card which caused corrupted data, but after I asked further questions they admitted that they really don't know what caused it. I had them send us the "corrupted" video files, and had a videography forum online look at them. From everything that I can tell, as well as the videography forum, there is absolutely no corrupted data in the files. The best guess from the videography forum is that they completely lost the video from our wedding, and tried to make up data to cover their tracks and make them look slightly less incompetent. So I honestly don't know if it was a bad memory card or if they did completely lose the data. However, even if it was the bad memory card, it is still completely their fault; they should have seen it the very next day as soon as our videographer tried to back up the data, and noticed that all the videos were completely black, so he is either lying or didn't even care enough to look at the thumbnails of the videos. Also, apparently our videographer used a very amateur camera to take the video; if he had used a professional camera this wouldn't have happened. Apparently in addition to not having the video that was shot, they also never told our videographer that he was supposed to set up a second camera during the ceremony, so this didn't get done. They literally never told us about this until I specifically asked about it. It appears that they were trying to hide the fact that they messed up and were hoping that we forgot we paid for a second camera. They did get some of the audio from our ceremony and toasts, which they sent us completely raw and unprocessed. However they didn't even care enough to listen to the audio to make sure that they had everything, and were missing both part of the ceremony and part of the toasts. It would have been very obvious if they cared; the ceremony started in the middle of a sentence and one of the toasts was split up between multiple files with audio missing between each one, so if they had cared at all they would have noticed that before they sent it. About a month ago one of their managers told me that they were going to be firing both the videographer and the post processing guy. However, the Complete webpage shows both of them still working there, so it seems like they completely lied to us about firing them. Apparently not caring at all about a client's video to watch it for even a second, or not caring enough to even apologize for it, isn't enough to get fired from this company. They initially offered us about 1/3 of our money back, and they didn't even offer the $200 tip we paid our videographer back at first; apparently they were hoping we forgot about that part, and it was only after asking for it back that they gave us a mostly full refund. They also gave us a gift card for some photography products from their website, but it was about $300 less than what they charge for a photobook and didn't cover shipping. We would give all that back to get the video from our wedding. It was completely priceless to us, and it was treated as completely expendable by this company. This is why I'll regret going with this company for the rest of my life. read more

After a big issue with another company Complete stepped in on short notice and I got a great deal. The staff I takes with was so friendly and helpful. The lady that came to the birthday party was so much fun. She got the kids going and they all wanted photos with her. Thank you to everyone who helped make our daughters birthday party a hit!!!! read more

Not a good choice for a wedding DJ. DJ was difficult to get a hold of before our wedding, played the wrong songs during the ceremony, played music during speeches, didn't have some of the music he said he had (like for the mother-son dance), didn't take requests, and many guests reported he was rude. I told this to the owners Lesa and Branden afterwards and they were shocked, yet never offered any of my money back. Not worth the money or the stress. I will never use them again or refer them. read more

We were so happy with Complete! We used the DJ and Photo Booth services. Bernie was without a doubt the best choice for DJ for us. He was fun, outgoing and respected our wishes with what we did or didn't want to hear. We were able to have a FaceTime meeting with him prior to our wedding day and that was nice, convenient and fun. Bernie was exceptionally helpful and professional. On the day of our wedding we changed our minds about how we wanted the grand entrance to go, Bernie was very accommodating and easy going about it. To sum it up, Bernie enhanced our special day and we wouldn't go back and change a thing. Vern was our photo booth operator. He was extremely fun, professional and helpful. Everyone was raving about how much fun they had with the photo both and Vern! The fact that we got a photo guest book, unlimited prints and digital was so wonderful. We will treasure them forever. I highly recommend Complete. read more

I would save your time and money and go with a company that will not screw you over. SO many times I tried getting ahold of the owner and he never seemed to be in and never called me back. Tony was very inappropriate and unprofessional when I went in for my consultation and when we talked to the owner about it, he brushed it off and said he "didn't believe it for a second". Sure didn't have a problem yelling at me or my mother when we called to clarify things. I am not doubting the work of the people they employ but as far as management goes, this company needs an upgrade and better manners. We ended up cancelling and went with another DJ. BEWARE read more

My photographer was amazing. What was really not amazing was working with her manager/ the office. 1st, the office really needs some paint and general upkeep aside from the mold smell. I'll be totally honest, it was dingy. The "greeting area" featured employee's belongings on the couches for guests including someone's paycheck, and the woman at the desk couldn't have seemed to care less that we were waiting for an appointment. 2nd, Matt Sherry was late for the appointment (as in almost 20 minutes) and completely disorganized. He spent another 10 minutes (after being 20 minutes late) on his laptop making rather uncomfortable small talk wanting to know who our vendors were for everything and how we knew them and what they were charging. Something that was frankly none of his business. There was nothing prepared for appointment except showing us some photos from his laptop from the website (which we had already seen). Not even a list of prices for services. He genuinely seemed to talk down to us, seeming because we had an obvious look of distain and disappointment with the way we, potential clients, were being talked to. He went so far as to say "Don't look at those." (VERBATUM!!) when we commented politely about some of the photography on the wall. Awkward. We booked anyway because the price was right and we had faith in the quality of the photos the photographer we selected had taken of other weddings. After all, this wasn't the guy taking the photos, he's basically managing the photographers as independent contractors. I can't understate how amazing our photographer was the day of the wedding. I would recommend her personally any day of the week. I received two emails that were in rapid succession less than 5 days after the wedding: 7-8 low resolution photos and an email showing how to recommend their service. I was pleased with the photographer, So I gave a good review. I wish I could take that one back. That was the last I've heard from the manager. 4 weeks later, I have yet to get a response from him regarding when I will be able to see the rest of my photographers hard work. It's not like I sent one note: I sent 3 emails, sent a message to the national office, and one on the local office's Facebook page. The national office said they would have him contact me right away. The Photographer herself emailed me and said it was typical that it could take 2 months for the photos to get retouched and sorted as they only have 1 photo tech. However, I received absolutely nothing from Matt Sherry, the person who has physical custody off all the pictures. It's not like I asked that they be finished immediately, I just wanted to know the timeline. Today marks now 7 weeks without any response to my attempts to communicate with the Minneapolis office. I've almost given up hope on even getting any pictures in time for Christmas from a mid September wedding purely because Complete won't answer me. Or worse, that they will be done poorly to get even with my frustration because I must have annoyed him by looking for answers. My husband was deployed literally the day our honeymoon ended, and having those pictures (or even a day to look forward to getting them!!) would mean the world to me, but that seems to make no difference to Mr Sherry. It would seem that he doesn't care since he got his initial good review to drum up business. I would not recommend working with this company at all, but the photographer herself was amazing. Should have hired her independently. read more

I like that you have several different services (DJ, Photo Booth, Photography, etc.) to choose from, all your needs in one place. I highly recommend Andrew as your DJ, he made our wedding a lot of fun and he was great to work with. Also, choose Stephen for your photo booth attendant, he did a great job as well. read more

Absolutely the worst DJ service in Minnesota. One of their DJs apparently wanted to be famous and called up a local radio station to tell them a bunch of celebrities would be at our wedding, which was already being held at a high-profile location. People started tweeting about it, and even TMZ's local paparazzi showed up. We had to hire extra security and even make our guests get checked off a list (something we didn't want to do at all!). We asked them to replace the DJ, obviously, and the new guy screwed up all of our dances and DIDN'T EVEN KNOW OUR NAMES when he announced our first dance. Instead of being apologetic, cutting us partial refund and covering the cost of extra security, the owner Matt blamed us for having our wedding at high-profile venue, and for having an engagement video that went viral. It was a disgusting violation of our confidentiality, and even though this was 3 years ago, we still warn people away from this worthless company. DO NOT HIRE THEM! read more

We hired Complete for our wedding video and the experience has been less appealing than the one star I gave it. After ten weeks of waiting for my video and no correspondence from the team at Complete I called to inquire where they were at with things. I was told my wedding month was very busy and they are running behind but would have it in the next few weeks in time for Christmas. At the 12 week mark I called again to see if we would truly have it and was told another story that they had computer issues and this delayed the editing on my video and another week or two for completion. After waiting over three months for my video I was sent the link for the preview and they had another couple's name in the video. I called, was told sorry, and we'll get it fixed and out to you right away. One day prior to the four month mark I got my video, mind you after all of this that they told me to come pick it up and didn't just send it. I'll be honest I haven't even watched the video because the customer experience has been so terrible that I wouldn't recommend them just for that reason alone. I understand that things happen and delays occur, but making your customers drive the resolution on a service you offer will never win you a five star rating. read more

We recently had a wonderful outdoor winter wedding and DJ/MC AJ Stone was the perfect addition to our day. He provided great music & entertainment during the social hour, dinner and dance during the reception but more importantly was an integral part of the ceremony. We chose AJ after Complete Music's DJ Meet & Greet (great idea btw) because of his enthusiasm for our unique wedding. He went above and beyond the typical duties of a DJ. Thankfully, he provided song and artist suggestions for our ceremony when we couldn't find anything fitting and everyone loved our choices. He was a trooper during the ceremony despite the equipment fighting with the cold temperatures and falling snow, and even covered the equipment with his own coat just to make sure it didn't fail. After the ceremony he worked his magic and hauled all the equipment inside for social hour and the reception. Even though about half of our guests left after dinner because of the day of the week, AJ kept the party and dancing going strong for the rest of the night. Thank you SO MUCH AJ for your awesome services, I'll be recommending you for sure (not to mention the 100 guests at our wedding who are still asking about you)!!! read more
