    It says in his contract that if purchaser cancels earlier or more than 21 days, then DJ should only retain the deposit.

    Beware of this vendor! DJ Jon basically ran away with our $1,800!! He's not a man of honor, doesn't follow his words nor his contract. Our coordinator made a mistake of telling us it was Ok to have a DJ, we then book DJ Jon as he had five star reviews (google reviews are all questionable, found out in the end that he only get 4-5 star bec he would coerce people to leave a good review or else you won't get your $300 back.) We paid in full. Minimum was only 50% ($750). We trusted him and he convince us it was best to pay in full. Nowhere in his contract does it say that the full payment & $300 is a "DEPOSIT". Later on we found out from the owner of the venue that DJ was not allowed. We then contacted DJ Jon at least 3 months before our wedding. He was sarcastic and make it sound like it was our fault that we didn't find out that DJ was not allowed. We were messaging back and forth, it would take him awhile to reply, sometimes a wk then he just stopped responding. He didn't give us the 50% back nor the $300 that was promised in his contract. He claimed that the $1,800 we paid was part of the deposit which is not in his contract. We have notified him more than 21 days which states in his contract that he only get to keep the deposit if we cancel. What you're doing is illegal! $1,800 is not gonna get you far, don't tarnish your reputation just for $1,800. Eventually, karma will catch up to you.

    This is probably the only negative review you'll see, and there's a reason for that... DJ Jon requires a $300 deposit in addition to his fee which he SAYS is to cover damage to his equipment, however the contract makes it clear that he will keep this $300 unless you and 10 other guests leave him an "adequate" review online. Don't worry though, he states he will provide you ''detailed instructions'' for your review.... DJ Jon also requires you to deselect the button on Venmo marking your payment as a purchase. This causes Venmo to view your money as a gift/reimbursement to DJ Jon, rather than a payment.. THIS IS SUPER SHADY! It immediately eliminates any avenue you have to request a refund or dispute ANYTHING as well as allowing him the opportunity to skip reporting your payment as business income for tax purposes. Additionally, the address provided for his business returns search results not for a DJ location but an alcohol/drug testing center. Upon looking for a valid business license, we aren't able to find one.. Not a good look if you are seeking a professional vibe. Due to this skeevy business model, please keep in mind the possiblity that the favorable reviews you are reading on here MAY be from actual happy customers.. They may also be from people who have been coerced and just want their money back. Pictures of actual contract backing up this info are attached.

    If you're in search of a DJ who will go above and beyond to make your special day unforgettable, look no further than DJ Jon! He exceeded my expectations in every way and played a significant role in making my friends' wedding an absolute blast! The choice in music was exquisite and he made sure everyone was constantly dancing and having a great time! Thank you, DJ Jon, for creating memories that will last a lifetime! There's no other place I would look to when searching for a DJ in Reno!

    My friend who hired the DJ dancing away!!!!!

    Did a great job at my friends party. She heard him at another function he was DJ at liked his music and hired him for her party. Kept the music going and played a good genre of music to dance to!

    DJ John was great at our work holiday party. He was very cordial and open to song requests when the dance floor was in full swing toward the end of our night. He provided a great atmosphere for our work function which turned into an all around unforgettable night, highly recommended DJ in the Reno area!

    We had the absolute best time at our event! If you're looking for a DJ in Reno, look no further than Jon! He made the night so much fun, everybody, and I mean everybody was dancing. He created the best vibe! I would hire him in a heartbeat for any event, weddings, parties, ecstatic dance, you won't be disappointed.

    I would recommend Reno DJ Jon Alder for anyone's wedding or event. I first heard him DJ at a friend's wedding and hired him shortly afterward. Not only does Jon keep people dancing all night, he knows just when to slow things down and pick them back up. He also met with us as soon as we hired him to make sure that we have everything we could want for our wedding. He's there to help every step of the way and makes the process easy!

That was our first encounter with McClain's Mobile DJ. We had enjoyed that evening so much, we requested a quote. Price wise, I feel like McClain's is very reasonable. The owner, Tracy, is lightning fast with responding! This made our time feel valued and her level of engagement really stood out to us. Then came the wedding day! Our DJ, Andrew and his trainee, Caleb were amazing! They had gotten to the venue for setup just before we did. Andrew was highly detail oriented and was able to get on page with us quickly if there was a lull or questions. His talent was further exemplified when he took on a 'wedding coordinator' role and made sure to either keep us on time or communicate with us about the timeline and if we wanted changes. He and Caleb really helped make our day special. From Caleb signaling to everyone that it was their turn to go down the aisle, to both of them checking in and asking if we needed anything. The communication was proactive and consistent. I truly believe they helped change the course of our day for the better with their generous service and their pure kindness. We have been so impressed with McClain's and I know our guests had the BEST TIME, in part because of this team. Should I need a DJ again, I wouldn't shop, but I would come right back to McClain's!

How amazing is that!! I 100% support our local business in the Reno area, and if the venue hasn't been changed I would have loved to have them DJ the wedding.

We planned their big day in South Lake Tahoe all the way from Los Angeles and Logan was a breathe of fresh air. Having worked with many DJ's in the past, I know how imperative they are to helping the event run smoothly. Logan had perfect communication leading up to the day and made my *extensive* timeline (sorry logan, lol) happen without hesitation or error. Ceremony - AWESOME equipment. He had a headset microphone for the officiant and a hand-held mic for the bride and groom that the officiant held for them during their personal vows. The speakers were loud and the mic was clear. Logan was already setup by the time I made my way to him and as we reviewed the timeline, he was well prepared. The ceremony ran so smoothly. Reception - THE LIGHTING! I don't even have words for it. We added on Logan's lighting package and it was worth it. The room was lit beautifully for dinner and switched over to multi-colored for the dancing portion *chef's kiss*. He made sure to get everyone's name correct prior to the grand entrance and he followed the timeline seamlessly. There was truly never a time that the dance floor was empty. Logan is confident, fun, energetic, and super easy to work with. I was so grateful to have him as a part of our team. I got to enjoy my brother's wedding without having to "work" thanks to him!
