Amazing: professional, personal, care, and lots of love

Ida is simply wonderful: She was hired as a wedding DJ, but she took on so much more than that! Our wedding was postponed by a year due to COVID. During this entire time, Ida stayed in contact, was enthusiastic to help us in any way she could. She is very organized and is very attentive to detail. On our wedding day, she made everything flow smoothly and encouraged our nerdiest guest to the dance floor! That's accomplishment! We love Ida!

Ida is amazing!

Ida was FABULOUS! She was flexible and willing to meet us multiple times before our big day to discuss all of the important details. She brought up details and ideas we had not considered to help make our day perfect. She respected our wishes and made sure all of the songs we wanted were played and that the ambiance of our wedding fit our wedding vision. Ida was understanding and ensured all of our guests has the best experience ever!!! We cannot thank her enough and would highly recommend her services to make your special day complete! We are so glad we found her and will be grateful to her and I.M. Entertainment for years to come!

Fantastic!

Ida was exceptional in her service as a DJ for our wedding. She was organized, kind, and went above and beyond for us. She did not just simply ask us for what music we wanted to play, but she also asked about our interests, our families, and how to ensure that every one of our guests has a good time.

I had many family members come up to me after the wedding to express how they enjoyed the music and getting to know the DJ.

One thing that was very important to us was to have our guests laughing and dancing the night away. Ida made sure that happened. All of our guests had an excellent time and we are so grateful for her excellent service.

Ida is an Extraordinary DJ, Highly Recommended

If you're considering other DJs, stop wasting you time and connect with Ida. Ida was exceptional in everything she did for our wedding. We our wedding had to span cultures from Indian to American. We gave Ida links to popular hybrids of Indian and American music. She took those links, applied her deep love, education (Ida has her Bachelor's and Master's degree in Music) and experience with music, and curated the perfect tracklist for our wedding reception. Her love of music and ability to bring that music to a wedding experience you will love is unrivaled.

Ida was not just a DJ a for us, she kept us sane throughout this process. She jumped into everything and coordinated with our venue to ensure everything ran smoothly. Even with last minute changes, she made everything work. We never realized how valuable having a good DJ was until having Ida manage our day. One sound advice we received and followed, that I will pass on to all brides - trust your DJ, just give them what you want in your event but let them organize the order. Our day was better and far less stress because of Ida's abundant talents and willingness to jump in wherever there was a need. Our guests absolutely loved having her there. You will not be disappointed.

Amazing. Ida spends enough time with you to understand what you want and the type of music you want played

Ida was in touch with us several times between the first time we met and wedding and her quesrions were centered around sincerely wanting folks to have an incredible time and they truly did! A Dj is the master of ceremonies for your reception and she does an amazing job just the way you want it to be.

Ida was perfect

Ida is absolutely wonderful. All the reviews talking about how great she is are dead on, though probably inadequate. We only booked her a month before the wedding, and she made it seem as though we'd been working with her for a year. Besides being professional, Ida was sweet, kind, and clearly cared about our wedding. Even though we were married the day before Thanksgiving, she still drove out to our venue and took her time to make sure everything went well from start to finish.

For us, the best part of working with Ida was how simple she made everything. My wife and I had never been to a wedding before (that we could remember, at least), and she both explained how everything worked and guided us toward an excellent ceremony and reception. At the reception itself, she was great at incorporating requests and keeping everything running smoothly, even when there were a couple last-second changes. She also wasn't afraid to hop out and help lead a couple dances to get everything going after dinner. Overall, Ida was everything we hoped and then some.

Great All Around

Ida is so kind and flexible. We had to move our wedding because the groom wouldn't be back from deployment in time, and she asked me if I needed help changing everything. Luckily, I didn't need the help, but it was nice knowing I had her support. She is fun, and I probably should have leaned on her more than I did, but I'm glad I had her as my DJ.

We are so glad that we ended up choosing Ida as our wedding DJ! We were debating between different DJ's, a few of which charged less than Ida. However, Ida won us over with her enthusiasm, calming demeanor, and amazing organizational skills. She is always extremely responsive whenever we try to get in contact with her. She also met up with us twice prior to the wedding for planning sessions, which forced me to plan out essential wedding details that I would have procrastinated on if left to my own devices. We also appreciated her wide range of music and her determination to adapt the music to our guests' preferences. We were very impressed with her attention to detail during the wedding and her above-and-beyond efforts to make sure that everything went according to plan. Thank you Ida for the important part that you played on our wedding day!

Honestly, if you choose or even consider another DJ service other than I.M.Entertainment Service, you're wasting your time and money. Ida was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made the entire experience much less stressful than it could have been (planning a wedding and all). She even assisted with things outside of the DJ's normal responsibilities. That's priceless in my opinion! It's a shame that 5 stars is the highest rating because that isn't nearly enough. Our wedding even happen to fall on her birthday, some DJ's may not even work on such occasion. If you need a DJ service for any event, choose Ida with I.M.Entertainment DJ Service, you'll regret it if you don't!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
