WHY PLATINUM DJ?

Exceptional Talent

We know that your choice of DJ will absolutely make or break your wedding ceremony and/or reception. Think about it this way: Your wedding DJ isn't just there to play music - he or she is responsible for your event's mood, energy, flow, and even the comfort of your guests. An amateur DJ or awkward personality will leave your guests bored, uncomfortable, and looking for opportunities to leave.

We don't ever want you or your guests to feel that way. That why, above all else, Platinum only considers DJs with energetic, professional personalities, intelligible microphone skills, and exceptional musical talent. Platinum DJ's are paid more than 3x the industry average to keep them motivated and eager to do only their best at your wedding.

Best of all, you'll personally meet them prior to your big day, so rest assured that you and your wedding DJ will share the right match of personality and style.

Clean Aesthetics

Platinum DJ recognizes that you've spent months (maybe even years) planning every little detail of your wedding. The last thing we want to see is your wedding DJ creating an eyesore. Not only do your aesthetics suffer from an amateur DJ, but so do photos and videos. Poorly managed, messy gear can limit photographers' shooting angles by up to 50% and ruin otherwise great shots.

That's why it's so important to us to keep a tight inventory of high-end equipment in exceptional condition. During your planning phase, your wedding DJ and our sound/lighting team will work closely with you and your event space to preserve the venue's intended atmosphere. That way, you can count on Platinum's modern and minimalistic equipment to blend in rather than STAND OUT.

Common DJ equipment you won't EVER see at a Platinum wedding: Marketing banners, carpeted DJ speakers, heavily worn equipment, wired microphones, ugly lighting trees, cheap gear, and messy wiring.

We do our best to be completely transparent. View hundreds of REAL Kansas City weddings on our website's gallery, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter!

Full-Service Production

Platinum is SO much more than just a wedding DJ company with a handful of lights. Platinum's status as a small production company means we have access to sophisticated production gear you often see at high-end corporate events, galas, fashion and trade shows, and sophisticated awards banquets.

The benefit? Our high-end inventory is available for your wedding day. Not all uplights, gobos, and dance floor lights are the same! Just compare our competitors' photos to ours and you'll see what the Platinum difference is really about. Platinum offers far more options and uses genuinely professional, industry-standard gear that's much higher quality than what you'll see traditional DJ companies using.

If you can dream it, Platinum can do it - all under one roof, for one price - for much less than you might think.

Won't be disappointed!

We are so happy we booked Tony with Platinum DJ! He absolutely nailed our ceremony audio—three different songs plus a live performance—and everything sounded amazing. During the reception, he kept the party going and made sure the dance floor was packed from beginning to end. He was also so professional and adaptable; even when we were behind on cake cutting and speeches, he kept things moving effortlessly. Our guests had the best time, and so did we. Truly the perfect DJ!

Tony was amazing!!

Tony was just an absolute joy to work with. He is so full of joy- and he brought that energy throughout our entire wedding day. He executed our “vibe” for music perfectly, and we were all over the place with what we wanted- so that is really saying something! His timing on music, and special moments was perfect, and we had people on the dance floor until the absolute last second. We were so lucky to get to work with him!

Greatest Night of our Lives

As my wife and I learned over the course of the last year, the currency of trust is worth its weight in gold. For those of you in the midst of family meetings deciding what flowers you want, what table cloth fabric best matches the wedding color scheme, and who sits next to who (more like Game of Thrones), let us save you a good deal of time and effort when it comes to selecting a DJ.

Being a DJ is one part communication, two parts being a music connoisseur, and three parts being down for whatever. If we had to go back and replan an entire wedding (it gives me PTSD thinking about it), we would keep a few things the same; one of which is the DJ.

He was empathetic to our musical desires, kind to the older generation in the audience, and patient when we were slow to respond due to the undertaking of planning the entire event ourselves. It's fairly cliche to say, but it is also not an overstatement in the least, that DJ Apollo helped make our wedding reception the greatest night of our life. DJ Apollo (aka, Mike) had our trust from our first consultation to our final dance.

If you're reading this, DJ Apollo, I hope you know how much we appreciate you offering us your skillset that night. Thank you, man.

Platinum DJ review - DJ Apollo

We were soooo lucky to have DJ Apollo as our DJ for our wedding. During our meet and greets beforehand, he listened to our feedback on what music/vibe we wanted for our wedding and he simply exceeded our expectations. He provided good feedback and tips that we didn't even think of that helped elevate the wedding experience. Once wedding day started, he was very accommodating, supportive, and communicative with how the day was going to go. He also was an AMAZING MC, helped pumped up the crowd, provided announcements, and followed our timeline. We even had a lot of compliments from our guests about how good he was - one of them even wanted him to be a DJ for her wedding haha. DJ Apollo is an all-around great guy, he's attentive, experienced, and his priority is to make sure the couple and guests are having great time on newlyweds special day. Thank you again DJ Apollo for providing such an unforgettable experience! 10/10 would highly recommend.

Bilingual Wedding

Tony was a great addition to our wedding day! At our bilingual wedding, Tony did an amazing job of blending different genres and languages. He was able to read the room and had everybody up and dancing.
I could not recommend him enough!

DJ Apollo is the best!!

We just got married this last weekend and DJ Apollo made it so fun!! Our dance floor was hopping and I was on the dance floor the entire night. DJ Apollo went out of his way to meet with us multiple times before our big day and he was very well prepared and structured. He has a great energy and can bring his radiant / contagious positive energy to any crowd!! We can’t thank him enough for a perfect night!

DJ Apollo w Platinum DJ

Mike, or DJ Apollo from Platinum DJ was incredible, he did an incredible job working to relieve any potential wedding stressors that he could not just the day of but the months leading up to our big day. Mike is very knowledgeable and experienced and that showed when it came to some of the things that he brought up that we had never thought about. Mike is also very personable which made it feel like we had someone who really cared about making our wedding day incredible. So if you’re looking for a DJ that is not just knowledgeable but also looks out for the best interest of you and your significant other on your wedding day Mike is the perfect DJ for you.

Platinum DJ Recommendation

DJ Apollo was a pleasure to work with! He met with us twice before our event with lots of ideas as to how to make my son's bar mitzvah super fun. He was organized and on top of things months ahead of time. Recommend!

As wedding planners, we can tell you that a DJ will make or break your reception. Platinum Productions nails it every time. The DJ's are professional, upbeat, clear spoken and most importantly, they fill a dance floor like nobody's business. The fact that they offer (spectacular!!) lighting packages with their DJ service makes them a one stop shop full of all things fabulous!

I have worked with Platinum Productions in event settings and I had them at my wedding reception. I promise that you will not find a better group of DJ's out there. I cannot speak highly enough of how professional they are in attitude, appearance and operation! They are great at reading any room or venue and know just how to take your event to its highest potential. Whenever anyone asks, I always recommend Platinum Productions!
