Wonderful!

Gary performed for me and my wife's wedding and he was nothing short of spectacular. He played the piano during our ceremony and all 3 songs we requested were perfect. He also DJ/MC'd our reception and we were so happy with all he did. Thanks Gary!

Best DJ Ever

I’ve been to several weddings and other events where Gary was the DJ, so it was a no brainer for me to book him for ours. It was my first time working directly with him, and it was absolutely awesome. Not only is he extremely talented, he knows how the wedding needs to flow, makes sure everything is on track, keeps the dance floor FULL, and had me in tears for our last dance. Everything about our night was amazing, and Gary played a HUGE part in that. Thank you SO much for everything Gary, you are the best!!!!

Above and Beyond

Gary was great! He kept the party going all night! 💃🏻🕺🏻 He was very accommodating and he even got my husband and I drinks right after the ceremony ended. Everyone loved the extra lighting and the fan that he added to the dance floor. He took song requests as well as played from a list I had provided him. He even took pictures and videos. I would highly recommend his services!

Entertaining DJ

Gary was very easy to work with and did a fantastic job DJing our wedding. Once it was time to dance, he knew exactly what to play to get people on the dance floor, and that’s where most people stayed! Our music selection was something that my new husband and I wanted taken as a priority, and Gary did not disappoint in following our requests. His prices are very reasonable and we’d recommend his services to anyone!

Gary knows how to get a wedding to party! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ that is going to get your guests having fun, without a load of awkward small talk. His uplighting really jazzes up a room too!

Gary is the most amazing DJ and musician I have ever had the pleasure of meeting! He did everything I asked for and he went above and beyond what any DJ would or should ever do! Honestly if it wasn't for him my wedding could have been a huge disaster.

Gary is very Professional but Personable at the same time. He did a fantastic job at my sisters wedding. Catered to all music types. Had a great set up. I would recommend him for any event that requires entertainment. Only downfall is that he is so popular he is hard to book. So I recommend getting ahold of him well in advance. Keep up the awesome customer service.

I'd recommend Gary to anyone looking for a DJ for any event, not just a wedding. He was flexible and easy going making my reception experience much more relaxing. We all know "planned" events never go quite as smooth, so any request or change in the order of our songs, cake cutting etc. he was accomodating to the tee. Last second I asked him to change up the father/daughter dance, and his response was absolutely. PERFECT pick chosing him for our DJ. Thanks Gary for being a part of our special day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Elevated Events (Gary Johnson) has by far been an amazing asset to our area! Unmatched in the realm of dj and lighting services - he offers a truly one of a kind experience that is unparalleled by others! He has become one of our "go to" vendors that we like to recommend to all of our clients - as he has set the bar for customer service, attention to detail, and the most amazing personality to work with in his field... Hands down he has been truly wonderful to work with! Looking forward to a long standing future of referrals heading his way from our banquet facility.....
