We are so grateful we went with Elevated Events for our wedding, Marco was PHENOMENAL. The entire…read moreprocess was made much easier from the detailed questionnaires that we completed prior to our meeting with the DJ. My husband is Indian, so his parents/some of his groomsmen had some difficult to pronounce names, and Marco was great about making sure he was pronouncing them correctly! We went over it in our zoom call prior to the wedding, but on the day of he confirmed with the groomsmen themselves that he was saying it correctly before he announced them entering the reception. Marco was great at reading the crowd, and his assistant was definitely keeping the guests' energy up! So many of my guests commented on how great my DJ was, and some even expressed interest in hiring Marco and his assistant for their own personal events! Elevated Events truly helped make our wedding night unforgettable, thank you!!!

Horrible horrible DJ. I am sitting at an event right now. The first problem was that he was making…read moreannouncements like go outside for the wedding or come to the dance floor and everybody take your seats it's time to eat. And nobody could understand as his speakers were absolutely horrible. And he was told but it was never fixed. He messed up three times on starting the wedding song for the bride and groom. That was horrible. The bride and groom really want everything to go perfectly so messing up on the wedding song was not acceptable. If this was my wedding I would have felt horrible. Of course we all had a great time so I'm not going to say that he ruined it but it could have gone way smoother than it did. The wedding itself was beautiful the people were incredible the food was most delicious and everybody had a great time.

We did not hire a wedding planner for our event so Bridget helped us plan the entire evening down to the minute details. She was prompt with communications and was accommodating to last minute changes. While DJ'ing for the dancing part of the evening, she was amazing at reading the crowd and playing songs that were sure to get them going. If you are looking for someone who is organized, reliable, skillfully accommodating, great at communication, talented at reading the crowd, reasonably priced, has a great microphone voice, and can pull off both trendy and classy at the same time, we would definitely recommend Bridget for your next event!

I met with Ryan, who is professional but also just a cool dude. You can tell he gets it, and is up on the trends in the music and entertainment world. He took me through a whole presentation and explained how all of the wedding could be planned through their portal. The portal makes sure you address all the possible needs of a wedding- cocktail hour, first dances, bouquet tosses, and even if you want to accept requests or not, etc., but it's easy to indicate if you're skipping anything as well. His presentation was thorough and answered all my questions so I booked them the next day. I just went with their 6 hour DJ package, but they also offer longer packages with additional lighting and sound features, uplighting, fabric, photo booths, etc. You could really get a lot taken care of through this company! Although Ryan was not our DJ, the DJ we had (Chris B.) was very good. He played a great mix of songs and lots of people were dancing all night!! The guy never took a break, even though I did plan for him to eat dinner. My only two issues, which really weren't a big deal was that at one point the Christmas song "Silver Bells" came on during cocktail hour, and I promise that was not a song request. The other thing was that a few of our selected dance songs weren't the exact version I expected to here, but it was still the correct song overall so it wasn't a big deal. I highly recommend Non-Stop entertainment!

He let us choose the time and location for our first introductory meeting and really took the time to get to know our story as a couple and understand what we wanted for our special day. He followed up to make sure we were on track and even gave us great song recommendations whenever we felt stuck or disagreed. Tim, thank you for going above and beyond to make our wedding day so unforgettable. We truly couldn't have had the day we did without you. Not only was he an incredible DJ, but he was also an amazing MC professional, engaging, and always keeping everything running smoothly and on time. If you need a wedding DJ, party DJ, or even someone for your next house event call Tim! From the ceremony to the very last dance, everything flowed perfectly, and he played such a huge part in making it all feel so special. His energy set the tone for the entire celebration, and we're still hearing from guests about how amazing the music was and how much fun they had on the dance floor. If you're looking for someone who can keep the vibe high and make your day unforgettable, Tim is the one. Highly recommend!

We booked Tim with The Record Shop for our combined wedding ceremony+reception this past weekend…read more He came highly recommended from a trusted friend - and I'm incredibly glad we picked him. Don't let the relative lack of Yelp reviews put you off - he knows what he's doing. We met Tim once in person, and once via FaceTime. Each time I left with the impression that he's a person that just *understands* music at a deep level - and that's what you want in a DJ. Someone who can read the room and play the *right* song. We ended up trusting Tim to just play what he thought was right - we gave him a list of songs we liked, but other than that let him pick the music. It turned out to be the right choice - our dance floor was packed for hours, until we turned the lights up and made people leave! Some other things are notable too - Tim was very helpful when picking out a "first dance" song; he was able to provide good music at the very last minute for walking in/out of the ceremony (because we forgot to pick something!). He kept sneaking us drinks whenever he saw we were out. He coordinated a surprise as well - my now-husband sang a song to me on the dance floor. He kept it a secret and worked it in at the right time, and it made the night just that much better. I can't recommend him enough. He made our event so much better than it ever would have been without him!

I reached out and had an initial consultation call for my wedding in June. After the call, I was…read moretold I would receive a proposal, but more than two weeks passed without anything being sent. I followed up and was told I would receive the proposal by the end of the day, but I never heard back. I reached out multiple times over the following two weeks to everyone I had been in contact with and did not receive a single response. This lack of communication was extremely disappointing and felt unprofessional for a service costing $5,000+. I would not feel confident hiring a vendor who communicates this poorly for such an important event.

And they just didn't respond. Seems unprofessional considering they expect a 5k minimum just to book.

If I could give zero stars, I would. This is going to be a long review, so here's a brief summary…read moreof my experience. We ended up terminating services with Bill 10 days before our wedding due to the lack of communication, unprofessionalism and the disregard for our requests. Money was tight leading up to the wedding, but we knowingly cancelled services even though we would still have to pay in full because of the lack of confidence we had in him. If you're still reading, please prepare yourself for my experiences with him: We booked Bill the summer of '24 for our wedding that just took place a couple of days ago (April '25). We talked to him on the phone, and he presented himself to us with quite the ego. He kept telling us that he was the best, he was a professional and that everyone loved him. We were also told that he would provide us with links to his work, but no links were sent. We still picked him because of the good reviews. Fast forward to the end of March, I reached out to Bill about 2.5 weeks before our wedding because I had not heard from him since we booked him. I asked to do a phone call meeting to go over everything for the wedding, and I sent him a very detailed schedule/notes to look over prior to our call. On the day of our scheduled call, he indeed did NOT call me like he said he was going to. Instead, I waited 20 minutes past the scheduled time and then I called him. We talked on the phone, and we did not go over much for the wedding because he told me that he did not even look over any of the notes I sent him. I was pretty frustrated that he was late (if you can call it that, since I had to call him) and unprepared. I marched on and started asking him questions to which his replies were "don't stress," "everyone loves me," "I've done this before," which is exactly what every stressed bride wants to hear, am I right? He was very condescending and overtly dismissive throughout the entire 10 minutes on the phone. He then goes on to tell me that he has a music list of over 2,000 songs that he would like us to go through for the wedding, and I asked him to send me those links of his work that he talked about at the initial booking call. After this call, we went through the list, and it said to return completed 2 weeks prior to the wedding day, which was only a couple days from when we received the list. Not only should we have received this list probably months in advance, but also the spreadsheet was literally labeled "Copy of Songlist - 2010." The label was very accurate because there was not a single song on there from after the year 2010, and the spreadsheet sent to us had markings on it already, which showed us that this was probably someone else's sheet. His behavior and lack of preparedness did not instill any semblance of confidence in us. We looked back at our contract, and it said we would owe him the full amount if cancelled within 60 (!!!) days prior to our event. Keep in mind the 60 days because it will be important later. We decided to keep him because it was super last minute to find a new DJ. Due to the lack of confidence, we decided we needed to meet him in person to go over everything before the wedding, so we sent him another email to schedule that. We were very specific on our availability times (ex. "Wednesday, April 9th after 2:30pm" etc), so there would be no confusion. Low and behold, there was confusion. I was emailed 20 minutes after the in person meeting time one week BEFORE we were actually supposed to meet stating that he was waiting at the Panera. We were very confused and reminded Bill that our meeting was not for another week. He proceeded to tell us that he drove an hour and a half to meet us and if we could still come by. We replied saying that we had other obligations, which is why we did not list that date in our availability. This was the final thing that pushed us to terminate services with him. He was not reliable, prompt or able to follow explicit directions. It also showed me that he did not save my phone number because he only communicated with us over email when the meet up incident occurred. This meant he was never going to call me for the initial phone call meeting, and we never would have chatted if I did not call him. When we sent our concise termination of services email to him 10 days before the wedding, he replied very unprofessionally. His email was riddled with spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors to which we deemed no reply was necessary. We decided to eat the price and find a new DJ to which we are so happy we did. One day before our wedding, he sent us an invoice for the remaining balance, which we knew we were going to pay. In his note attached to the invoice, he wrote that we signed a contract and had to cancel 90 days before the event. Bill obviously did not even read his own contract because it said 60 days in the one we signed. We paid it, but we would definitely recommend to NOT book with Bill. Literally find ANYONE else.
