Do not go to anyone else

We cannot say enough good things about this vendor. We had David and Ken as our DJs, and they honestly made the entire evening. They played everything we requested and made it flow perfectly- from 1970s ABBA all the way to 2000s club music, there was never a bad transition or bad song played. they were mindful about our requests for "no play" music and managed guest requests appropriately. They had everyone on the dance floor throughout the night. We are still getting compliments on our DJs a week later- that's how fantastic they were! 12/10 recommend this service!!

Ken is amazing 🤩 the best!

Ken did an amazing job making my event memorable. We worked together very well. He listened to me. Transitions were perfect. The event flow was seamless. He played the majority of my playlist. He stuck to the schedule and communicated with me if he had any questions. Everything sounded great. Lighting was great. I got so many compliments on Ken and his abilities and our music selection. The dance floor was lit the whole time. I was so pleased. I could not have asked for a better wedding DJ! Ken is also a substitute teacher. Extra credit=extra tip money. Amazing job. The best wedding DJ I have ever experienced in my life.

Great services!

Rocko did exactly what we wished for our special day. We were more on the simpler side of things but he made sure to clarify every detail with us and made suggestions when we were unsure on certain details. He gave recommendations on songs and when to end them to fit our timeline. As far as price, everything that we had, (Dj services, uplighting, photobooth) was well worth what we paid. His prices were perfect for our budget. He is also very personable and worked well with the crowd. If anyone asks, I will definitely recommend his business.

Amazing DJ!

Thank you so much for making our night so special. Collie - you were fantastic! You single-handedly kept our night together.

For context - the power kept going off at our venue during the reception and Collie immediately, with no issues kept the music and the party going. He was so quick and so professional through it all. We could not have been happier and more impressed!

DJ Rocko Dorsey was absolutely amazing for our wedding, he hit everything we asked for and then some. He was very informative and easy to meet with and talk to. He made our day even better than we expected. He helps plan your day and gets all your thoughts and throws in some of his. He kept everyone on the dance floor and there was never a dull moment

Excellent Service

Rocko from RD Entertainment was incredible to work with! From coordinating with the venue to ensuring that the dance floor was filled, our wedding/reception went off without a hitch thanks in no small part to his services. He brought the perfect energy as a DJ and allowed us to fully customize the experience. We cannot speak highly enough of him and would easily recommend.

Rocco is great to work with and is very personable. He has a great attitude and is very enjoyable on the wedding day. RD entertainment is on our short list of recommended DJ's.

ReBecca's Photography ReBecca's Photography Wedding Photographers

There's a very small handful of vendors that I truly believe have the same standards as I hold my own company to and RD Entertainment is one of them. As a photographer one of the most important aspects of the reception is to have great communication with the DJ, and as soon as I know that I'm working with Rocko Dorsey, I'm at ease because I don't have anything to worry about. The selection of music keeps me photographing everyone all night because everyone is always on the dance floor! You'll make a great decision if you hire RD Entertainment for your event. Professional, personable and a great company to have at your event! :)

Crystal Herry Photography Crystal Herry Photography Wedding Photographers

I always enjoy working with RD Entertainment. It's also a smaller company which is nice because you actually will know who your DJ is (unlike many of the larger companies). He also offers uplighting which as a photographer I highly recommend. It makes the room look beautiful and it really helps make your reception photographs look awesome! You can't go wrong with Rocko and RD Entertainment!
