I promise you will not find a better DJ or officiant anywhere!

My husband and I had the perfect Christmas wedding, and Joel Lindsay Entertainment had a MAJOR part in it! From the very beginning when we booked him, Joel was super helpful and organized in helping to plan our wedding. He sent us a Google Doc with a large sample schedule, and my husband and I used this throughout the entirety of our wedding planning process to help plan our big day! It had helpful suggestions, sample songs, and many other items that helped us throughout the process. Joel was very responsive and helpful in communication as well. Any questions we asked (even if they were small and silly), were answered with quickness and professionalism. Joel was even willing to do a Zoom meeting with us when our day got closer and this helped clarify any questions.

Joel is an amazing performer and singer, and his DJ skills are top notch! For our event, Joel not only DJ’d, but did live performances as well. He learned two songs that we requested and it made our day even more special! He played exactly what we asked him to and made the night fun and exciting. One of our wedding attendees said to me after the ceremony that at one point he thought Joel was playing a recorded track, when in reality he was singing live! Joel’s music really made our day special and perfect in every way!

Joel’s wife Amy was our officiant for our big day. She was amazing as well! Amy was incredible to work with and was also very responsive and professional in all our communications. When we met with Amy about 3 months before our wedding, we went over our entire day. Amy made some great suggestions to help enhance our ceremony, one of which was a Lego Unity ceremony which we never heard of. It ended up being one of the highlights of the entire day. Amy arrived an hour before our ceremony to go through it one more time (which really helped calm our nerves!) and really helped the ceremony go off without a hitch.

Our Christmas wedding was perfect, and Joel & Amy Lindsay were two of the main reasons why. We HIGHLY recommend them both to DJ and officiate your wedding!

Highly Recommend

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Joel Lindsey for our wedding, and we truly cannot recommend him enough! He went above and beyond in every way — not only serving as our DJ but also performing live guitar during our ceremony and cocktail hour. His musical talent is incredible, and he brought such a special, personal touch to our day by learning and performing multiple songs that were meaningful to us.

Throughout the entire planning process, he was extremely responsive, professional, and accommodating. He made everything feel easy and seamless, which is such a gift when planning a wedding. From start to finish, the music was perfect, and the dance floor was full all night long.

If you’re looking for someone who is talented, kind, and truly dedicated to making your wedding day unforgettable, look no further. We’re so grateful we found him!

Wedding Review

We are absolutely over the moon that we chose Joel for our wedding! From the very beginning, he was great & easy to work with. He took the time to understand our musical preferences and tailored the playlist perfectly to match the atmosphere we envisioned for our special day.

His talent as a musician was evident during the cocktail hour and reception, where he and his accompanying bassist played beautifully. As our DJ, he kept the dance floor alive all night long with an amazing mix of songs that had all our guests dancing and having the time of their lives. And as our MC, he was engaging and kept everything running smoothly and on schedule.

We were so impressed with Joel's professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to read the crowd. We received so many compliments from our guests about how fantastic the music and entertainment were!

If you're looking for a talented, dedicated, and all-around amazing musician, DJ, and MC for your wedding or any event, we highly recommend Joel Lindsey. Thank you for making our special day absolutely perfect!

We loved Joel!

We had the privilege of working with Joel for our wedding, and we were so happy with how the day turned out! From the initial consultation to the final song at the reception, Joel was highly professional, attentive, and committed to making our day perfect. Joel provided a timeline/questionnaire document, which ensured the entire day flowed easily. We did have some last-minute adjustments to the timeline, but Joel rolled with the punches!
Joel provided impeccable audio during our ceremony, ensuring that every word and note was crystal clear for all our guests. The setup and operation meant we didn’t have to worry about a thing.
For the cocktail hour, he played acoustic live music that perfectly complemented the ambiance. We received countless compliments from our guests after the wedding, letting us know how much they enjoyed the cocktail hour specifically.
Thanks to Joel’s DJ and MC skills, the reception was an absolute blast. He kept the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long! His ability to read the crowd and adjust the music accordingly was impressive. Additionally, he did an excellent job as the MC, ensuring that all key moments were highlighted and that the event flowed smoothly.
We are incredibly grateful to Joel for his outstanding service and for making our wedding day unforgettable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a top-notch wedding vendor who will exceed your expectations in every way.

10/10 recommend!

If you're looking for an incredible DJ and musician for your wedding, the search is over! Working with Joel throughout the planning process was great: he was so helpful and responsive, and his planning form is incredibly detailed, which allowed us to really be thoughtful and intentional about which songs we wanted played throughout the day and night. Fast forward to the wedding itself - we are STILL getting compliments about how amazing our wedding music was. Joel played the guitar and sang during our processional, cocktail hour, and for our first dance - he even learned two songs for us, which was super special. Once the dance floor opened he played hit after hit - I've never been to a wedding where literally every single person got out of their seats to dance for the first song, but Joel is just magic. He did such a good job of reading the room and reading us as a couple - he knew exactly what songs to play to keep the party going. On top of all of that - Joel took some great videos of the dance floor that we will cherish for years to come. We are SO thankful that we booked Joel - having a DJ who is also an incredibly talented musician is such a great combination - would highlyyyyy recommend booking him!

Can't say enough good things

Outstanding experience with Joel. First off, he's very musically talented. Second, he is so organized. He helped plan the entire event itinerary. Ceremony music, MC'd everything (his British accent was extra fun!), lighting, setup, performed live for ceremony and cocktail hour, wedding party intro, DJ'd the dance party....all of this for a crazy reasonable price. And did I mention, he is SO TALENTED?? The guests loved him. Can't recommend him highly enough.

Our Dance Floor Was Never Empty

If you are searching for a DJ you can stop right here, I found the perfect one. Joel was professional, full of energy and made our reception a blast. He played the perfect songs at the right times so the dance floor was never empty! We would absolutely recommend Joel to anyone. Joel was amazing to work with. He was very responsive and gave us suggestions and ideas when we were indecisive. Joel got to know us on a personal level and made sure to stop and say hi when we would go out to watch him at his different playing locations. I cannot wait to continue to watch him play live.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Joel is not only wonderful to work with but the way he fuses live music and recorded music is seamless. It's the best of both worlds !

Adam Michaels Photography Adam Michaels Photography Wedding Photographers

Loved working with Joel! With his live singing to awesome DJing skills, he really set the mood for cocktail hour and dinner, and then had everyone up dancing for the rest of the night!

Hot Metal Studio Hot Metal Studio Wedding Photographers

Joel is a wonderful musician and DJ. It's really nice an acoustic first dance and cocktail hour with party music later, without having to have different people doing both. His audio sounds great and so does his voice! Joel is also not a very talk-y DJ, and it's refreshing that he lets the music speak for itself.
