About

Hi, my name is Matt Moore owner/operator of Advent Entertainment. Advent Entertainment has been in business, in the Des Moines area, approximately 9 years now. I also have 20+ years of experience in the music entertainment business. I choose to remain a small company as I personally work with all my clients and also perform at their events.

When you choose Advent Entertainment I assure you the piece of mind knowing that all the details are covered and the entertainment at your event exceeds your expectations. I do not spend a lot of money on advertising simply because 90% of my business is gained through referrals from past clients. I believe that speaks much more highly than any flashy advertising ever could.

I want to gain your trust and offer you an assurance that you are going to deal with me personally throughout the planning and performance at your event. Your event is just as important to me as it is to you. I believe in quality, not the quantity of events every year.

We are also priced below many of the other "professional" DJ companies in the area. I understand that cost is important to all people so I want to offer outstanding entertainment and customer satisfaction at a competitive cost. Please check our site out, we have a page dedicated to pricing options that fit your budget. The site will also show you a little more about what we are all about.

On point service!

Matt was awesome to work with for our wedding and made the dance floor a truly great experience! He's prompt in communication and asked all the right questions when going over mic and speaker logistics for ceremony and reception. He worked super well with our other vendors to keep things moving smoothly day of. His tiered pricing is great so you're able to add everything you're looking for. Lastly, he was super fun! We had a Halloween wedding and he helped us keep up this theme and even came in costume himself. Highly recommend!!

Wedding DJ

Matt was the perfect DJ for our wedding day! He was super flexible and we were able to come up with a playlist specific to our preferences. We chose to book his best package, which included fun dance floor lights. Everyone had such a great time and our guests loved being able to request their favorite songs as well. His communication before the event was great and we went over a specific timeline to make sure we were on the same page. We can't recommend him enough!!

So kind and helpful!

Matt was excellent with communication before and during our event! He made sure to walk us through what would happen before the big day and kept us in the loop during the event. He was so kind, flexible and helpful it made our day so much easier. He has a wonderful speaking voice and has a lovely sense of humor. I would recommend him to anyone I know having a wedding or party!
Thank you so much Matt!

Dancing the Night Away! For Real!

Matt was very thorough and open in communication even when we were planning from out of state. His professionalism and obvious experience helped us realize/discuss some parts of the reception we hadn’t thought of, and added one of my favorite parts to the event (the anniversary dance was an excellent way to get lots of our older adult guests out on the floor when they hadn’t been before). His expertise, kindness, communication, price, and super fun performance made for a really stellar experience. Even months later, my husband and I agree that one of the best parts of our wedding was seeing all of our friends dancing until the very last song of the night, and that is all thanks to our amazing DJ! Matt did a killer job having a variety of songs, helping guide us through the flow of events, and above all made it so stress-free while we planned our wedding all the way from California. If you are looking for both extensive expertise and fun, you have found the right guy!

We were very happy with Matt's DJ service at our wedding reception. He did a great job playing the variety of music we requested in an order that kept everyone engaged and dancing. Our hope was to have a dance party and that’s exactly what we got, with songs that kept people dancing until the end and that attracted those people to dance who don’t normally dance. When our guests made requests he did everything he could to find the song and play it, which added even more variety and life to the party. We liked that he checked with us to confirm a request if needed. We got really positive comments on the music from all of our friends and family, and would recommend Matt as a DJ to anyone.

We could not have dreamed up a better dj for our wedding. Matt was the BEST in every aspect. He knew exactly the mood/tone we were going for, was extremely professional but personable, as well as reasonably priced. We didn't have to worry about a thing. I've had several guests tell me separately that it was the best music at a wedding that they had ever been to, including their own! We can't say enough kind things about Matt and his services.

I don't have a single negative thing I could possibly say! Matt, owner and DJ, was great! He even helped offer suggestions on order of reception events based on his experience since I didn't have a clue how things should go, and the evening went perfectly smooth! Guests were dancing all night, he is great at reading the crowd. Couldn't thank him enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
