Affordable, fun, progressive, quality, easy to work with!

Having Cascade Live Events as our DJ vendor was easy, affordable, fun, affirming, and common-sense. We booked Mike Steltz, Co-Founder, as our DJ. Where to start!

First off, Mike was SO affordable for what we were looking for; we built a custom package based on our specific needs, and he was flexible + priced it reasonably.

Second, Mike was flexible and chill about changes along the way; we postponed a year due to COVID concerns, and after a quick chat he promptly sent us a subcontract confirming the new dates. No hassle at all! And day-of he was laid-back and professional when inclement weather forced us to relocate the dance floor.

We also want to note that as an LGBT couple Cascade Live Events felt LGBT friendly + affirming. We were transparent about ourselves from the first conversation, and explained we also had a lot of LGBT community coming; Mike used our pronouns, was comfortable + enjoyed playing the queer music we asked for, and worked hard to make us + our guests feel comfortable and affirmed the day of. Mike is NOT your corny old man DJ playing at a long island wedding (lol): he is young, super chill, and easy to work with.

Fourth, Mike did a good job staying in touch with the audience on the dance floor. He played the tunes we asked for, but he didn't act as a living spotify playlist; he remixed some FIRE tunes, and pulled from similar genres+time periods to keep the energy up on the dance floor. He was in tune with the vibe of the party! At our request he had obscure gay club songs AND interspersed more familiar tunes. As a testiment to Mike's skills the dance floor was open for 3 hours and even though we had a small guest count we had 9 people dancing till the very end.

Cannot recommend this vendor highly enough!

(Side note: it was important to us that all our vendors had dinner, breaks, and a fun time too. Cascade Live Events did have dinner written in their contract, but not everyone did. Vendors are also human beings, and they were integral parts of our wedding! We encourage all wedding couples, regardless of who they book [tho u SHOULD book Cascade Live Events lol], to also be considerate and chill with their vendors. It makes a huge difference & reduces stress for everyone the day of. :))

Truly amazing experience!

We are SO happy we went with Cascade Live Events! Going into our wedding, I mostly just hoped the DJ experience would be smooth and they'd play fun music; after our wedding, I am blown away by how much the Cascade Live team became a core memory from our weekend! Mike was incredible to work with throughout the planning process - he was prompt and professional at all times, offered great suggestions, and adapted the plan to whatever we wanted. Honestly, we liked working with him so much that we were sad to learn he wouldn't be the DJ himself at our wedding - but then we met Slade and Eddie on our day of, and they were truly phenomenal. They brought so much joy and energy to the dance floor without making it about themselves - seriously, they looked like they were having the time of their lives, and our guests absolutely loved them. Could not recommend highly enough!

09/16/2023- Garnet Hill Lodge Wedding

From the very first contact with Cascade Live Events, they were very quick, professional, and personable with their response. All the questions that Rachel and I had were answered completely and directly.
On the day of our wedding, they showed up exactly when they said they would. We got to meet Mike and Ethan, and after exchanging handshakes, they went right to work with the venue, setting up all speakers and microphones. All the music requests for the processional, and the reception were perfectly set up and accommodated all of our needs with no need for any direction from us. The timing for speeches and music went perfectly. They were even able to accommodate us with an extra hour of music on the Dance floor the day of. All we had to do was give them our taste in music genres, and they ran with it and read the room perfectly.
If you want your wedding to go as smoothly as ours did, I would highly highly recommend contacting Cascade Live Events.

I'm Mike, lots of my friends call my Mikey and only my mom & dad call me Michael. I'm the proud husband of world famous wedding photographer Kortni Maria Steltz! I've worked in the live production/ events world for the last 7 years doing everything from grunt labor to managing multiple venues and conferences A/V. I have been a part of more weddings than I can count from my very own wedding, to helping with meal prep, to shooting photo/video, to officiating, to actually being in the wedding party and of course taking care of all of the audio, DJ and lighting needs.

After countless weddings of friends, family and acquaintances, I saw a real need for higher quality AV solutions at weddings, which has prompted me to start Cascade Live Events!
