Marshall Yancey was amazing! Great DJ.! Completely professional. Met our budget. He went over our song choices throughly and was super helpful. He introduced people elegantly. And we danced all night! . People came from Florida to California and complemented me on what a great DJ he was.

The DJ you want at your wedding!

Marshall Yancey is definitely the best in the entertainment business— he is the DJ you want at your wedding! It was an easy Y.E.S. for my husband and me.

Marshall Yancey sat down with us twice to plan out every detail of our reception. He’s also an incredibly nice human being and puts his heart into what he does. Moreover, his pricing is very fair and he was even totally flexible with adding on another hour of DJ services the day of our wedding. Amazing! Our guests LOVED the songs and didn’t want to leave the dance floor! 10/10 for Marshall Yancey. Thanks for everything!

Mr. Yancey was exactly what we wanted!

We had a great experience and highly recommend Mr. Yancey! He was extremely attentive, professional, and made sure our wedding experience was exactly what we conveyed to him. We can’t say enough about how thoughtful and aware he was throughout the day and he was a big part of why our wedding went so well!

Great DJ, Great Price

Marshall Yancey did a wonderful job at our wedding. We looked at several different vendors before booking him and we are so glad we went with him. He drove from Louisville to Lexington to meet with us, gave an extensive list of music options and was more affordable than several other options and he did a perfect job! Our wedding was a blast with lots of dancing and he kept the guests moving until the very last second of the night. I would highly recommend his services!

Marshall Yancey did an amazing job as the DJ for our wedding and was all around a great guy to work with. He had a very in depth consult with us before the wedding and was very thorough. He made sure to make everything we wanted happen, as well as gave us some really great recommendations. We were planning our wedding from out of town, which was difficult, but he was very accommodating and was able to work with us from a distance. He made the atmosphere at our wedding very fun and played great music that kept our guests dancing. We would absolutely recommend Marshall Yancey!

Very professional and has a ton of experience. He was very easy to work with. He is very knowledgeable and kept the party going. Great value for the cost, he is worth so much more than he charges. I would highly recommend him to anyone getting married in Louisville.

Yancey was the perfect DJ. We were able to relax knowing that he had everything handled, from set up to the flow of the event. He played awesome music that kept everyone out on the dance floor. We have some amazing pictures of our guests dancing, and I believe that's because we had such a great DJ. Book Yancey, you won't regret it!
