For our wedding we had Carlie with Adagio. She was amazing. She checked in with us for when to make announcements and played all of our favorite jams. When the older guests left and it was just our wedding party and close friends left, she saw what got people on the dance floor and what kept them there. She adapted the songs to make sure the party didn't stop. We couldn't have hoped for a better DJ for our special day.

Dj Derick is AMAZING! He was very communicative, attentive, and played GREAT music! He read the room quickly and people never stopped dancing! When he played Party In The USA I don’t think he was prepared for the kind of response he got but he RAN with it. From the first dance to the last dance, it was constant dancing! Perfect selection! He also picked the perfect last dance song because neither my husband or I had thought about it. In all - if you want a lot of dancing and an unbelievably fun time, DJ Derick is your man!

Our DJ Gary was amazing! He was fun, played a great mix of music for everyone to enjoy, and really listened to the details we wanted included for our special day. Gary was so helpful when we came close to losing our pianist due to covid and had a back up plan ready just in case. His experience really showed. All of our guests mentioned how great he was. Thank you for making our day so special!

We used Adagio Djay Entertainment for our wedding this past weekend and our DJ Merlin/the company were nothing short of amazing. This includes the months leading up to the actual event.They replied promptly and quickly every step of the way, their online platform/event planner was entirely helpful for two people that had never planned a wedding before, and most importantly.. the actual event was so professionally ran that I would recommend him/them to any of our close family or friends (We had Merlin and I HIGHLY recommend him. He was a pro’s pro. Knowledgeable, entertaining, professional, and so courteous of everything we were looking for with our wedding day/night. He delivered the perfect experience).Merlin was there early with all equipment, made it all about us, had smooth transitions from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to dinner, to the dance and really helped keep our day on track!Thank you ADE! You helped make our day truly a huge success.Overall grade for Merlin and this company was an A+!!

DJ Derick was the BEST!We’re not joking when we say everyone was on the dance floor the entire night, and received so many compliments on how fun our dance was! He did a great job at reading the crowd and playing songs for everyone. Great communication, and he was always willing to go with any last minute changes. We had the best reception and it is 100% all thanks to him.

Adagio Djay was the perfect DJ for us. Jay was great to work with leading up to the wedding and made it easy. We landed Gary as our DJ and he was the best. Easy to talk to as well, receptive to our ideas, but also led us in a great direction. He brought professionalism, fun, and creativity to our day and was a tremendous leader. Folks absolutely need to consider Adagio for their DJ services and if they get Gary they will be in GREAT hands!
