best dj EVER!!!!!

Ryan and the Griz team are the best! Ryan matched the dance floor's energy all night long to ensure it stayed full. He was quick in his set ups when moving from inside to outside, and he curated the vibes the entire night with great music, seamless transitions and amazing lights!

The app Griz uses prior to the wedding was SO helpful! It allows you to select all of your song preferences for the ceremony, cocktail party, dinner, special dances, dance floor and exit.

It also put my mind at ease knowing that Ryan had worked at my venue before and was familiar with their staff and the layout.

1000000000000/10 would recommend Griz! THANK YOU, RYAN!

The Best DJ / Emcee / Entertainment in the Industry!

We absolutely LOVE Griz Entertainment! We don’t even want to call them a DJ service because I feel like they did so much more than what you’d hire a DJ to do. They are absolutely an entertainment company for your wedding day.

One thing I would say is to do whatever upgrades you can do! One of the best things that they did for us was get our wedding monogram with our initials. I designed a custom one, and then they literally made it into a light that they shined up on a giant rock wall in Moab. At night, the guests were absolutely freaking out, and said it was the coolest thing they had ever seen at a wedding 😂 People literally said, “Am I crazy, or are your initials on the mountain??!!!” “how did you do that? That is SICK!” the comments about our initials in the mountain were seriously so funny. At the very least, you’ve GOT to make sure to book that with them! Seeing our initials on the mountain under the Moab starry night sky was truly epic!

I would also highly recommend the Griz Mobile and the 360 video booth! First of all, the Griz mobile was such a cool vibe! Nobody else has a DJ in a revamped VW bus just absolutely lighting up the dance floor 😂 We had one main request for our AMAZING DJ / Emcee Matt, “Keep everyone dancing!” And believe me, he succeeded. It was our main goal to have the most lit dance floor in wedding history, and I’d say we absolutely did. We had SO much fun, he was awesome with sticking to our music selections and switching it up when needed. Not only that, but Matt brought such a good vibe! He was happy, fun, lively, and kept the mood up the entire night! Not only was he fantastic with the music, but he was SO great about emceeing all the special moments of the night! My fiancé teased me and said, “You gave more speaking parts and requests for him than any other bride probably ever has”. I’m sure he is not wrong haha, but Matt was perfect! I even had him announce special moments with some very specific comments during times like the moment I came out in my husband’s grandma’s wedding gown!

This is a long review, but I want you to know all the things 😂 If you can, I would also suggest the 360 video booth. It was AWESOME! Our guests had so much fun using this! They even have an amazing Photo Booth from the back of the Griz Mobile, and our guests had a lot of fun with that. It was really special looking out, seeing our guests enjoy themselves so much! A massive part of this was truly thanks to Griz Entertainment! The lights, the vibes, overall they are 100/10 ✨ I hope to have another big event someday so that I can book them again!!

Thank you so much to Matt, David and the Griz Entertainment team! You guys are the best, and truly made our day so much better than we could have imagined!!

Highly Recommend Griz Entertainment

We loved working with Griz Entertainment, they are extremely organized, timely in answering my many questions, coordinated sharing their sound system with our band and the Vibo app they used to organize our music was SO easy to use. Nico was our DJ and he was everything we could have ever wanted! He was great about following up prior to our wedding to feel out our vision, he was timely, fun and kept the party going all night! Highly recommend him!

10/10 Recommend Nico & Griz Entrainment!

From the very start, Griz Entertainment was incredibly easy to work with. To start, they list out all of their services and costs in a very straightforward way that allows you to customize service based on your needs and budget. They use an app (Vibo) that was very intuitive and easy to use. Through the app you select all of the special moment songs and the overall vibe you are looking for. Once we got paired up with our DJ, Nico, I knew we were in good hands. Nico and the whole team were super responsive anytime we had questions leading up to the big day!

Nico is a very talented DJ who knows how to MC a great dance party! Our guests were out on the dance floor the entire night, which is exactly what we had hoped for. Nico did a great job of reading the room and playing all the right tunes. Absolutely zero complaints! We are still getting compliments about Nico’s skills! 10/10 recommend Griz and specifically Nico to DJ your upcoming wedding or event!

Highly Recommend!!!!

These guys are AMAZING! Nico was our wedding DJ and he did an incredible job! Kaci and Ryan did a great job communicating with us throughout the planning process and walked us through what to expect in the months prior to our wedding. They use a planning app which allows you to add your music preferences and plan on your own time, without having to meet in-person on a frequent basis. Nico was very accommodating to my busy schedule and is an amazing DJ! Nico and his lovely assistant are very detail-oriented and made the night stress-free. We got so many compliments about our DJ and ceremony music that night!

Best DJ ever!

Our wedding was absolutely amazing and everything we could have ever asked for and a HUGE part of it was our DJ! We had DJ Starr! Starr was the best DJ ever! Starr was able to get the party going from the beginning and that is exactly what we wanted. Starr kept the crowd 100% involved and we had sooo many of our friends and family the day after our wedding telling us how fun our DJ was and we couldn’t agree more! I 100000% recommend DJ Starr with griz entertainment!

Wedding of the year!

We had an absolute blast at our wedding and a huge part of that was the DJ! We had DJ Matt and he made our wedding one huge party which is exactly what we wanted. We even ended up doing karaoke which was a huge hit!! In addition, he played every single song that we wanted for the selected songs (I.e. first dance, father daughter, etc). We also had a do not play list that he adhered to. There was a photo booth as well which was a hit. Definitely would recommend this vendor, especially Matt!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
