We hired 196 events after seeing the reviews online and then seeing them at a bridal show. It was 1000% the right decision! We couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out, everyone loved the photo booth and getting everyone on the dance floor was important to me. They made it happen. You will also not find better/easier people to work with Devail and Nikki answered all my questions and the app used makes everything seamless. If you want the fun to never end, you will not go wrong with 196 Events.

196 was amazing for our cocktail hour and wedding reception. They kept the party going all night and played songs that fit the vibe. Their attention to detail added a unique touch to our special day. Their recommendations were spot on and turned an amazing event into ann even better experience. I was on the dance floor all night, as it should be on your wedding day. The Photo Booth was a hit! So many people loved the ability to take home their prints and print as many copies as they needed. The lighting and setting of the dj were great and the ability to understand the crowd and see where the vibe was going allowed for smooth transitions and a flawless experience. I would recommend them again for another event where I need a dj.

196 Events- Devail and Nikki made my wedding. They brought such a great energy to the day. Between the mix of music and how Devail does all of his announcements the guests were hyped up the entire night. Lets not forget the photo booth ran by Nikki. They had so many options for photo booth customizations and then a lot of props for guests to use and was a hit all night. I can not recommend this team enough and thank you for making my wedding the best day ever.

My husband and I got engaged in 2023 and we wanted a laid back, relaxed wedding that was relatively stress free. We picked a venue that handled most of the things (catering, most of the decorations, etc) but we were getting a little stressed about picking vendors. Luckily, the venue had 196 Events on their preferred vendor list. We had a consultation with them and from the second we started talking, we knew they were the DJ/MC for us.

From their fantastic planning app to the consistent communication, they made planning our reception a breeze! We were able to plan out all the music for the night (and the songs we didn't want played), so when the reception day came, my husband and I only had to worry about showing up.

During the reception, they were able to pick out songs that matched the vibes smoothly and get the crowd going when introducing everyone. Also, I may be biased but I don't think I've ever seen so many people dance at a wedding before. We also got the photo booth option they offer and that was a big hit with the guests as well.

They were also extremely flexible. We decided to cut the cake earlier than we originally planned and end the reception a little early bc of extenuating circumstances. At first, I felt very guilty and nervous that it would be an issue but they were able to make the change in an instant and seem like it was part of the original plan all along.

I would get married to my husband a billion times just to have 196 Events DJ/MC our event again and couldn't recommend them enough!!

196 Events was awesome to work with, and we would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for DJ services! They were extremely communicative and responded to every random question we had very promptly. I don’t think there were any issues all night with the microphones or music–everyone was audible and the music was great! I was very particular about what songs I wanted to have playing everywhere other than the dancing part of the reception, and they were able to play the songs I wanted and then find fun songs to encourage dancing during the reception! The website/app they use to help plan out the wedding timeline and associated music/mic needs was super easy to use and made it easy to keep everything straight. Devail and Nikki were both very, very kind people, and very fun and easy to work with! We also used their photo booth services, which was super fun for both us and our guests. We got all of the pictures sent to us digitally also, which have been a blast to look back through. And on top of ALL of that – they also worked with my now-husband to help him sing and play a surprise song for me on a keyboard! Nikki and Devail, thank you both so much for helping to make our wedding such a fun and memorable experience!!

Devail and Nikki were a dream to work with! They made the planning process seamless and totally stress-free. Devail was AMAZING at the wedding and reception. His transitions were smooth and he knew exactly what the dance floor needed to spice up the party. We received so many compliments from friends and family afterward about how great our DJ was and we couldn’t agree more!! Look no further if you want a GREAT DJ! 196 is THE BEST!

Wowowow. What a night. Devail and Nikki ensured that we had one of the best nights ever. From Devail's amazing MC and mixing skills, to Nikki's great coordination and content creation. We had so many guests rave about how great the DJ was and how much fun they had. I really can't say enough about how much fun we had because of Devail and Nikki. Thank you thank you.
You will not be disappointed if you book them

Devail & Nikki with 196 events were INCREDIBLE! They made our wedding experience just what we wanted. From ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner and the reception they killed it at every moment. They are so reliable and professional and know exactly how to deliver "NO BORING RECEPTIONS!" The planning process is so easy with them and they are there for you every step of the way. They read the vibe of our guests perfectly and it made for such a great night. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a DJ! Can't say enough good things about these two!

We cannot express enough about how much we enjoyed having Devail and Nikki as our DJ duo for our wedding! They most certainly delivered on their promise of No Boring Receptions and has us and our friends dancing all night! They guided the ceremony and reception with ease, and handled any time hiccups that came up without any fuss, making it a less anxious time for all. The planning suite they use is extremely easy to navigate and set s everyone up for success leading up to the big day!

A little something that stood out: Our pastor that officiated our wedding is retired and had not done a wedding in 6 years, and it was the first one he had done without his wife of 57 years there with him. Devail and Nikki took time out of their busy schedule to share some video footage with our pastor so that he could show his wife. Talk about making it a personal experience!!

They did this sort of thing throughout the whole process of working with them. We know this is a long review, but long story short, We cannot recommend their services enough. HIRE THEM!!!!

Working with Devail and Nikki was amazing! They are a great couple and understood what we wanted for our wedding on 2/10/24 at the Historic Post Office. They're went above and beyond and exceed our expectations and kept our guests on the dance floor all night! We highly recommend and would use their services again!
