Adagio stood out to us from the beginning with Jay’s positive and professional communication and their glowing community reviews. For every couple’s review you read, I’m sure there were hundreds of guest comments about how awesome the DJ was! We loved their online profile for building a playlist and Jay’s extensive team of DJs, knowing that we’d be matched with someone awesome who would enjoy playing our music for our special day.Speaking of… Anna knocked our reception out of the PARK! She was so fun and excited on our phone call talking about the playlist and our special dances. She even helped us with some special surprises including playing the Father of the Bride theme when our reception space was revealed, to playing a recording of my husband and I singing together from high school during dinner. Anna created a great balance between upbeat and slow songs, modern to oldies, and our dance floor was full the ENTIRE night! Her positive and professional attitude on top of her incredible skills absolutely made our reception the success that it was. Thank you, Anna!

Mel, our DJ, was GREAT!!! She played a variety of songs/genres including many songs we put on our wedding spotify playlist, and she accepted requests and played them immediately, which was awesome and helped our dance floor stay full all night long :) We were so happy with how the dance went and all of Mel's help announcing toasts, speeches, and getting the wedding party lined up for the grand march was excellent. She did a fantastic job!

Isaiah and the entire Adagio team were so fantastic for our wedding! From the early planning process to the final details the week prior, everything we wanted our evening to look like- happened! Including Isaiah being flexible and creative with us and helped us do karaoke for the hour of our night! It was so fun and so unique and our guests absolutely loved it!

Adagio DJ is extremely professional, organized, and really customizes your music to your day or event the exact way you want it. We booked adagio for our wedding. We had Ryan as our assigned DJ. If we had any questions, we were able to get a hold of someone and have our questions answered the same day. Ryan took our recommendations and music requests and did an amazing job. Everyone was on the dance floor until the venue closed. I highly recommend Adagio DJ.

Adagio DJ was a great DJ company to work with for our wedding. The whole process of booking, filling out forms, and getting everything sorted out was very seamless and organized and took one less thing of having to worry and stress about, so that was a great perk!Justin was our DJ for the big day and he was amazing to work with. He made the whole night a fun party, played great tunes that kept people out on the dance floor, and was all-around lovely to work with.We would highly recommend Adagio for your wedding!

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.
