Best Day Ever

Andy was amazing and made our wedding day go so smoothly! We had a lot of moving parts, a live musician, and he truly helped to run the show. He made sure there were people on the dance floor the entire time and played a wide variety of music to please all age groups and interests. He was very willing to incorporate requested songs from our guest rsvps, and took inspiration from some playlists we put together. A DJ can make or break a wedding day, and I cannot recommend a more fun, reliable dj for your big day! We also loved that he offered the phone guestbook and photobooth as an add on to our package. He handled all set up and we got our messages back the next day! Thank you Andy for making our dream wedding become a reality!

I highly recommend The Groove!

We chose The Groove as they were highly recommended by our place of venue and I'm so pleased how perfectly my daughters wedding was from pre-ceremony music, ceremony music, and entire reception. Andy coordinated with us on the timeline making helpful suggestions which we are grateful for his expertise and professionalism. His MC skills are the best I have ever seen at a wedding as Andy did all the announcing and made everything run so smoothly with the timeline. With four generations attending everyone enjoyed the music and the dance floor stayed busy all evening. Everyone said it was the best and most fun wedding they'd been to and I credit Andy & The Groove for helping make this day so perfect!

Dance Party!

We chose DJ Andy for our wedding and he was amazing! He DJ’d both of my sisters weddings and many of my friends weddings so I knew he would be a perfect fit for our wedding too! He’s professional, very detailed, has great communication, and so much fun! I’ve had so many people tell me how much fun they had at our wedding and that our wedding was the best dance party they had ever seen, which is exactly what we were hoping for! He has an excellent talent of feeling out the vibes of the party and playing music to keep the party going. I highly highly recommend hiring Andy from The Groove!

Definitely Recommend!

I 100% recommend The Groove for any event! They made planning for the big day very easy and stress-free. Tim was our DJ, and after our planning call with him, I knew it would be a seamless day. He was very knowledgeable and reassuring. He was very professional and helped us when planning which specific dances or events to include during our reception. He did a great job being flexible and changing the music to keep the dance floor busy. He also made requested announcements throughout the night to keep us on track with our timeline. He was also very approachable and friendly! I am so glad we used The Groove for our special day.

Absolutely Incredible DJ Service!

We cannot say enough wonderful things about The Groove! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our wedding day unforgettable. The planning process was seamless—they listened to our preferences, gave great suggestions, and were incredibly organized.

On the big day, Andy created the perfect atmosphere, keeping the dance floor packed all night long! They read the crowd so well, mixing in our favorite songs and adding their own expert touches that kept the energy high. Every guest raved about how much fun they had, and we owe so much of that to this amazing team.

Thank you, The Groove, for being such a huge part of our special day. You made it magical, and we’ll recommend you to everyone we know!

50th Wedding Anniversary

Andy from the Groove was great. From the planning stage to the day of the party, he was professional, responsive, and knew how to keep our guests on the dance floor. We made guests from 9 mo. to 82 and all were on the dance floor. Andy also offers a photo booth which was the hit of our party. I highly recommend.
