About
When you book with A+, you are getting more than "just a DJ". A+ works with couples as co-creators. How do we do this?
All of the staff at A+ attend DJ and Masters of Ceremonies continuous improvement workshops, seminars, and training in order to perfect their craft. This results in a wedding that tells the couples' story to family and friends. It's not about us.
We work with you on crafting a timeline so that your event flows smoothly and almost looks choreographed. We do realize that last minute changes sometimes happen, and we are well-versed in handling those moments when they happen. We like to have at least three planning meetings to get to know you better. We often employ Zoom for our destination couples.
A+ offers live musicians as an upgrade. What a way to take your event to the next level! Our musicians can play the traditional songs everyone knows, or even more modern selections. They can play for ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, or any of these combinations!
We offer a social sharing photo booth which uses the latest in technology (such as animated GIFs) and allows our couples and their guests to immediately share photos to social media platforms and texts.
Would you rather have professionals running your event or "just a DJ"?

Thomas was an absolute dream to work with and such an essential part of making me and my husband's wedding unforgettable! He is incredibly organized, strategic, knowledgeable, and supportive. From the very first conversation, he made everything feel manageable and not nearly as daunting as wedding planning can be. Thomas went above and beyond for both me and my fiancé every step of the way. I felt like our wedding was the best party we could have ever asked for. The dance floor was packed all night long, and people are STILL telling us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to. I think it is entirely because of the music & dancing! The package we chose included amazing lighting, uplighting, and an interactive DJ stage with music videos playing, which is something I had never seen before and absolutely loved. Thomas is a flawless MC, keeping everything flowing perfectly while also making the bride & groom feel calm, supported, and comforted throughout the entire day. If you want an unforgettable party, a packed dance floor, and a DJ who truly cares about you and your experience, Thomas is the best there is!!

Made Our Wedding So Much Fun!
We are so glad we chose to work with A+ Entertains for our wedding at Castle Farms this past October. Thomas was wonderful to work with during the whole planning process to make sure our day was absolutely perfect and reflective of the love my husband and I have. We listened to his recommendations on having our first dance right after our entrance and loved kicking off our reception with that and our love story. Luke was our DJ and master of ceremonies for our wedding ceremony and reception and he was so kind, fun, and great at reading the mood of the room which kept the party fun the entire night. He made sure all of the song requests my husband and I made prior were played, even the random obscure song I wanted played for my mom and I. We had people coming over from other weddings that were happening at the castle at the same time saying, "You guys have the most fun party here and we had to come check it out". Thank you so much for the part you guys played in making our day perfect.

Hands down the BEST!
Thomas and Carley literally made my day AMAZING! From the ceremony, to cocktail hour, audio for toasts, dinner and then the reception heard around the world (don't even get me going on the lighting!!) they KILLED IT! Booking a Vendor that's hours away is terrifying, especially when you're dropping some serious cash on something you don't even get to test drive first. I booked A+ solely based off of reviews after attending bridal open houses and countless expos. I had a long list of candidates but after our first phone conversation, I knew Thomas was going to have me taken care of and they truly went above and beyond. I wanted a DJ who could stick to a timeline and make sure people were where they needed to be, when they needed to be there with no confusion and I didn't want to spend my wedding day worrying about any of this and of course I wanted the dance floor packed! I cannot recommend them enough! Exceeded my expectations in every way possible and made my day one no one will every forget! Thank you so much for everything you did for us!!! WE LOVE YOU GUYS!

Great experience
Our wedding was this past Friday at Castle Farms in Charlevoix. Our DJ (Thomas) was a huge part of how successful our wedding was. From the beginning, he took the the time to get to know us as people, not just another bride and groom. We had a moderately untraditional plan for how things would flow, and Thomas took it all in stride, providing a seamless experience. The set up of the DJ equipment was impressive to say the least. My guests had a blast and I literally just got a text from a guest saying how she is still sore from dancing so much. He was attentive during the reception, without being in our faces the whole night. We were not from the Charlevoix area, and we were able to get recommendations for other services and vendors in the area from him that we may not have discovered on our own. We highly recommend A + Entertainment! Brandy and Chris

Thomas was amazing. Made our wedding run smoothly and was a great guy
A+ Was a pleasure to work with. Me and my wife had them dj our wedding. Thomas was great. Always checked with us to make sure we were doing alright. Helped me with my fear of public speaking. Carried our plates to our table for us. And was a genuinely great person. He made sure we were comfortable and having a good time the whole night. He came up to us multiple times to see if we wanted to push anything from our timeline back to give us more time to mingle. Honestly did not expect that from the dj. He went above and beyond. He had a great playlist and also worked off of some songs we sent him. He got just about everyone out of their seats to dance which I didn't expect as our guests are not really the dancing type. I highly recommend A+ and will 100% use them again if I ever need a dj again

A+ Experience
Working with Thomas was awesome (He was our DJ/MC). He was extremely helpful throughout the entire process. He really helped us throughout the planning process and when the big day was here, he was great! I would not hesitate to recommend using him. The photo booth was great too!

Great DJ and helpful with planning!
We vetted a few DJs before choosing A+ Event Entertainment for our February wedding at Castle Farms. Thomas Heath was very friendly and easy to talk to, up front about his pricing, and very enthusiastic about not only being a DJ but also helping us plan parts of our wedding. We had several consultation calls with Thomas prior to our wedding, during which he spent time getting to know us and provided us with planning advice. We planned our entire wedding from 750 miles away, and never had a doubt about the DJ we chose. Thomas has been fantastic every step of the way, and his wife, Shannon, was always prompt with e-mail questions and communications. The day of our wedding, Thomas and his assistant looked great; they even coordinated with our wedding colors! We opted for the “master of ceremonies” option, wherein Thomas put together a nice speech about my husband’s and my relationship history. It really was a lovely touch. Thomas paid attention to what music we wanted for our cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. Not all of our guests were the “dancing type”, but Thomas was able to get folks out on the dance floor throughout the evening. I even had some guests comment about how they loved that he got on the dance floor with us! We had a wonderful experience with Thomas and Shannon at A+ Event Entertainment as our wedding DJ, and highly recommend them!

Great to work with!
A+ event entertainment was great to work with! My husband and I were planning our wedding from out of state which overall made the process a little more challenging initially. However, Thomas and Shannon were very flexible in setting up Skype, FaceTime, and phone calls at any time of the day that met our needs. Patrick and Chris were the DJs at our wedding and they definitely delivered! The dance floor was packed the entire night. They put us at ease the minute our reception started and we couldn't have asked for a better night!

Definitely the BEST
Thomas and Shannon were absolutely incredible to work with from start to finish! They took the worry out of the whole process. Thomas was the MC and DJ at our wedding (along with a fantastic assistant), and Shannon (MIFunBooth) provided photo booth services, and included an awesome backdrop and props. We have many photo strips of memories that will last us a lifetime. Their professionalism and experience were evident throughout. Thomas listened to our requests and put together a killer playlist. He cared about the subtle details and showed that he wanted to make our experience unique and matching to our theme/tone. We got SO many compliments on the music and the event overall. The “Love Story” was definitely one of highlights of the event; very well put together and a different/nice touch that you don’t see at other weddings. It was really appreciated since we didn’t have to explain it to family that we haven’t seen in years! Their website was very friendly and easy to use. They are very prompt to respond to emails and other requests, unlike some other vendors. The uplighting was awesome and complimented our colors well, and made the venue truly come alive. They also provided music for our ceremony and he made all of my custom music work flawlessly. Highly recommended!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
A+ is great to work with and they really keep the dance floor packed. They aren't just a guy with a computer playing some music. They are musicians and they really listen you.
