Book marcus now! :)

This is going to be a long review, but so worth it! We cannot recommend our DJ, Marcus Smith of Innovative Blends, enough! He was truly the BEST, and that is saying a lot because Dan and I are very picky. What really set Marcus apart was that he actually blends songs into each other instead of just clicking a button. The music flowed so smoothly all night and kept the dance floor full from start to finish!

His mixing was incredible. He seamlessly meshed songs together and somehow even mixed in Croatian music perfectly. The dance floor was packed all night long. We love Morgan Wallen, and he played plenty of his songs, but he sped them up and blended them into others so the vibe never slowed down. It was so well done!

Another huge highlight was his planning app. The timeline included things I honestly did not even think about or plan for yet, which made it SUPER helpful. Little details like what song to play while we cut the cake, who would be making speeches and when, and even how high energy we wanted our couple introduction to be for the reception were all built right in. For our intro, he had everyone waving their napkins in the air and completely lifted the energy in the room. We loved it!

You can customize everything in the app, from the full timeline and start times to announcements and music, by adding songs directly from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and more. It also asks incredibly detailed questions like how to pronounce names and exactly what announcements you want and when, which made everything feel so organized and thoughtful. He fully respected our do not play list, which we really appreciated!

Marcus also adds in music he knows will naturally flow, so everything feels effortless. On top of that, he and his wife Zoom with you and your fiancé ahead of time to really understand your vibe and what you are looking for!

Every detail was covered, the energy was perfect, and the entire experience was seamless. We even had multiple guests compliment our DJ and ask for his contact info for their upcoming events. Marcus was fantastic, and we are so grateful we chose Innovative Blends. If you want a packed dance floor and amazing music all night, he is your guy!

Wedding 10/25/25

Marcus and his wife, Kris, are an excellent duo. They hopped on a few Zoom calls with us to learn more about my fiancé and I and our style as well as to answer any questions we may have. Marcus is a real DJ; he blends the music and it never stops. The dancefloor was packed for 4 straight hours. I am Croatian and he was able to play/mix that style of music seamlessly with American tunes. The VIBO app they use is awesome. We were able to add all of the music that we wanted (entrance, cocktail hour, first dance, dancing, etc.) as well as a "do not play" list. This truly simplified things and made the whole night flow well. We received so many compliments and I had multiple friends and family ask me for their contact info. This is a no brainer -- book Innovative Blends Entertainment ASAP!

Best DJ around

Marcus and his team were incredible! Hands down the best DJ. I gave my vision for every part of the wedding and he made my vision come true. Leading up to the wedding the process was flawless. They went above and beyond to help make our big day special. The dance floor was full the whole night and all of my guests have been raving about the music. The vibe was perfect for our wedding day!

Amazing dj!

I had an incredible experience with Marcus and the entire innovative team! They were always prompt and professional, answering all my questions throughout the wedding planning process. On the big day, Marcus kept the energy alive, getting nearly every guest out on the dance floor! I had several guests come up to me during the wedding to compliment how fantastic Marcus was as a DJ. The photo booth was also a HUGE hit and was ran very efficiently! I wholeheartedly recommend Innovative Entertainment to anyone in the future! A solid 10/10!

Reliable! Professional! Fun!

My wife and I were lucky enough to have Marcus at Innovate Blends DJ our big day! From the ceremony music to cocktail hour to first dances to reception, Marcus did it all! Marcus had us use an app to upload our music choices and once we were about a week out, we had a meeting with Marcus to finalize everything! Marcus will work with you to make sure everything is in order and the night will flow smoothly. Marcus gave us and our guests the best wedding experience we could have ever asked for!! We received so many compliments from guests on how wonderful our reception was and we give all the credit to Marcus!

We initially learned about Marcus when he was the DJ at one of my brother’s wedding back in 2022. After that night, I knew Marcus would one day DJ my wedding! My family and I love him so much that we can’t get enough of him!! My youngest brother also has booked with Marcus for his wedding in July 2025!!

Marcus and his team are truly one-of-a-kind! Their pricing and packages are 100% reasonable! You won’t be disappointed if you book with him!

The picture I added shows the red uplighting that Marcus added around the venue! Red was one of our accent colors and it truly added such a vibe to the reception!

Awesome DJ!

Marcus was amazing! He helped us choose songs during the planning process and gave recommendations when we got stuck. He coordinated with other vendors to ensure smooth timing for the event! So many of our guests asked us how we found him and complimented on his performance!
We chose to have instrumental music during the guest arrival, oldies during cocktail hour, and more 90s/2000s party music for dancing. He is attentive to the crowd and will make adjustments/fades out if he notices the song isn’t a hit.
The photobooth was also awesome! Our guests loved this (kids included!) and it’s nice to have a photo book as a memory and the photo strips for guests as favors!
10/10 would recommend him to any of my friends and family! He will make your event unforgettable!!

Hands down the best DJ ever. Marcus could not be more professional, communicative, & artistically creative with his mixes.

I’ve been to 100 parties and weddings in my life, Marcus is hands down the best DJ I’ve ever met. His professionalism and artistic ability are unmatched. Literally the only team of people you need for any wedding, party, or social gathering for the rest of your life. I can’t even count how many compliments we got at our wedding last night about how good the DJ was. The owner of the venue even had to ask for his card. Nothing could have been better and If I could give him more than 5 stars I would. Such a genuine person inside and out. He met all of our needs and questions throughout the planning of our wedding, and handled everything the day of perfectly. His mixes are phenomenal and personalized to what you want. If I could know all the weddings he does in the future I would show up just to dance!

Hands down best decision

To say that Marcus and Innovative Blends were amazing at our wedding would be the biggest understatement I have ever made. From the start of planning to the very last song of the night, Marcus was nothing but professional, personal, and all around the party king. We only had a few songs that we wanted for the night, but gave him the rest of the night to do as pleased with the musical choices. He did not disappoint with his seemless transitions and choices of music to keep the dance floor full the entire night !! It wasn't just us either, we received a number of compliments from our guests stating that the dj we chose was the best they have ever heard and we completely agree with every one of them. We 100 percent would, and will recommend Marcus to anyone looking for a musical genius for their special night !!

7 Years and Counting!

We have had Innovative Blends as the DJ for our senior prom for the past 7 years. They have been professional, fun, and responsive to our needs. The music selection and mixing during the event is great, and the photobooth, including the 360 Booth, is always a hit! They are always trying to stay current and use the latest technology and trends to give a great experience! Our students have enjoyed prom each year- that’s why we keep coming back!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
