About this vendor

Your Best Night Ever. Made Simple.

Not your average wedding DJ. We’re a team of real DJs (not just guys with Spotify) who specialize in smooth timelines, packed dance floors, and fun that feels totally natural. From music and lighting to photo booths and cold sparks, we make your night smooth, stylish, and completely stress-free.

The Simple DJ is a wedding entertainment company serving Indianapolis and the Midwest with professional DJ, lighting, photo booth, and wow-factor services. Our goal is simple: make your night seamless, stylish, and entirely you.

Led by owner and lead DJ Danny LaPlante, our team of experienced DJs—including Dennis, Bill, Kenny, Mark, Mike, Devin, Jason, Josh, and Skyler—combines skill, personality, and professionalism to deliver weddings that feel effortless and unforgettable.

Whether you’re planning a backyard bash or a formal ballroom reception, we’ll make it easy from start to finish. Every couple gets a personal online planning portal to choose music, add do-not-play lists, and lock in key moments. We’ll meet with you before the wedding (virtually or in person) to finalize everything so the day flows exactly how you want it to.

On the big day, we show up early, coordinate with your vendors, and keep everything running behind the scenes so you can relax and enjoy your night. From dreamy first dances to dance floors that never empty, we’ve got you covered.

Let’s create a night that actually feels like you.

The Best of the Best

If you are looking for an incredible DJ, stop searching and check out Danny at The Simple DJ (https://www.thesimpledj.com). Not only is he fantastic, his setup is awesome as well. The photo booth, the cold sparks and the monogram were all big hits at the wedding. Danny was very easy to work with and his experience was evident. Just give him the scope of what you’re looking for and he’ll take it from there. I think the best compliment to Danny is the numerous guests we had approach us after the event and tell us how great he was. 10/10 recommend The Simple DJ.

Fantastic DJ/MC

We booked The Simple DJ and Danny to be the MC/DJ for our wedding this past September. Not only was he extremely professional, commutative and answered all of my questions, he was an incredible DJ. He knew the venue in Indy very well and it showed during the day. Everything from lights, mic and speaker placement, song choice, flow throughout the night was all perfect. I could not recommend him and his team enough. If you are looking to book a DJ for a wedding for you or a family member, go out and book these guys!

Could not recommend more!

100% recommend The Simple DJ!!!! We received so many compliments from our guests about Mike aka DJ Mystro at our wedding. They are super easy to communicate with and very much understood the assignment when we said we wanted a big party. They did the audio for our ceremony and did a fantastic job. They provided uplighting for the reception and made our vision come to life!

The Best Wedding DJ!!!

We had a wonderful wedding experience with the Simple DJ at Laurel Hall! They had a useful portal upon booking where we could enter our song preferences and basic timeline throughout the planning process. On the day of our wedding, they showed up promptly and got set up with no issues. The sound quality was great the entire time through the different spaces (lawn ceremony with live instruments, terrace first dance and speeches, and inside dance floor) and the lighting helped set the mood for a night full of dancing. Guests also loved the photo booth! Josh our DJ had great song selections and was so helpful and kind to us. Would highly recommend!

Kenny is amazing!

If you’re looking for a DJ who knows how to keep a wedding fun and the dance floor full, Kenny is the one! We had a smaller, more intimate wedding, but thanks to Kenny, the reception never felt quiet. He created such an upbeat, fun atmosphere that our guests were dancing from the beginning of the night until the very end.

Kenny did an incredible job reading the room, keeping the energy high, and playing a great mix of music that everyone enjoyed. Everything flowed seamlessly, and he truly helped make our reception one of the most memorable parts of our wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests about how much fun they had. We are so grateful to Kenny and The Simple DJ for helping make our wedding an unforgettable celebration. We would recommend them to anyone without hesitation!

2/14 wedding

Danny was amazing to work with from start to finish! He was incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process and made everything feel easy and organized. He even helped me set up a display I wanted shown during the reception, which I really appreciated. Danny was very knowledgeable about how to keep the reception flowing smoothly and did a great job guiding the evening. He also truly listened to what we wanted for our music and made sure our song choices were reflected throughout the night. We had such a great time and would absolutely recommend him!

The Kosors

We are so happy we went with The Simple DJ for our wedding! Dennis was wonderful! We didn’t have an empty dance floor the entire night! They provided excellent music, read the vibe of the dance floor, and gave us the opportunity to have all of the special dances we requested! They were so easy to work with and communication was quick whenever we had questions! We couldn’t have asked for better people to share our day with!
