    Best wedding ever

    Alan rocked this wedding!! If I could rate him as a 100, I would. He arrived in plenty of time, set up looked very professional, and looked like a million bucks! The ceremony music was perfect and then the reception was just on another level! From the introductions to announcing food, etc!!! His energy filled the space! Andddddd, then the dance floor!! I have never been to a wedding where the floor stayed full the entire night!! The music was great and he never missed a beat!! Family and friends are still talking about how much fun it was!! Highly recommend this DJ for any event!!! A night to never forget!!

    Phenomenal DJ and MC

    Alan was extremely professional and helpful throughout our entire wedding and leading up to our special day. He ensured the music was exactly what we want played and when, providing us ideas and examples early on so we could have time to find our perfect songs. He was a crowd-pleaser with his introductions and mannerisms, being extremely friendly and open to ourselves and our guests. We could not have asked for a better DC and MC!

    My September 2023 wedding w/Alan Denver!

    Alan Denver was amazing! My wedding planner actually recommended me to him, and had nothing but great things to say. Leading up to the event, Alan was so easy to communicate with. He brought the best energy to our day and definitely knows how to work a crowd! The music was absolutely perfect from the beginning to end. I can't tell you how many compliments we received about him. As music and entertainment was on the top of our list for our wedding, I cannot recommend Alan Denver enough! 10/10!

    Awesome!!!

    Alan was amazing! He listened to all of our requests and different types of music styles and merged them all together to make our day absolutely perfect; even when we had a last minute song change right before the ceremony!! I would highly highly recommend using Alan for your big day!

    Best Wedding DJ Ever

    DJ Al D is hands down the best. Everything from the setup, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, lighting, MC services and all that goes between went off perfect. His professionalism and knowledge was apparent through all stages of planning from song choices to lighting choices specific to our venue and then at the reception taking our long list of songs and picking the right ones to play throughout the night. The dance floor was never empty and everyone came away raving. You seriously can't go wrong picking Al.

    The best dj!

    There are truly not enough words to describe how awesome Alan is! He was quick to answer all my questions, enthusiastic about all our ideas, and so much fun to collaborate with for our wedding. He kept the energy of the party going all the way to the final song of the night, and a majority of our guests out in the dance floor! The mix of music he played appealed to every single person and was truly the perfect backdrop for the night! He nailed timing for all our speeches, our entrance, first dances, and had such a good time interacting with our guests.

    He is truly the best in the business and I recommend his services for anyone looking to book a DJ! Wish we could relive that night over and over!

    Adaptable and Aware

    Adaptable and Aware are two qualities that Alan displayed that really made our wedding day so special and kept people engaged the entire night. In moments where he could tell there was a lull in dancing he knew the right songs to bring the energy back up to keep a fun atmosphere the entire time. He also was able to very quickly adapt to our needs of wanting to move our wedding back outside right after the rain, he was setting up in the rain to make the experience so much better for our guests outside.

    TL;DR
    His awareness of song selection kept energy high and his adaptability made our outdoor wedding a great time for all guests.

    So much fun!

    Alan was responsive to us and was intentional about setting up time before the wedding to discuss what we wanted! He also did a great job of picking out some songs based off of genres and other songs we gave him.

    Talented, Professional, Loyal and Flexible

    A bit of a long story here. Me and my beautiful new wife were supposed to get Married back in 2020, when COVID hit forcing us to postpone our wedding (the stuff of nightmares). Alan being the pro he is, gladly rescheduled us for the new date at no charge. Ok, pretty cool but it's a pandemic so you would have to be pretty cold to stick it to a bride and groom for cancelling under those circumstances. As we got closer to our new wedding date in July 2021, I (the bachelor) went out with the guys for the Bachelor party and let me tell you, we had a blast... but low and behold, guess who came down with COVID 4 days before the Wedding (you cant make this stuff up). Naturally we were absolutely devastated as we had to postpone again. Scrambling to find new dates, my wife coordinating with all the vendors while she watched her masterpiece of a wedding that she planned, fall apart yet again. Alan, being the magnanimous DJ that he is, graciously rescheduled us for the new date and didnt charge us a dime for having to cancel so close to our scheduled date even though he easily could have.
    Fast forward a few months to November 13th and FINALLY we are going to get Married. Alan, was on time, prepared, dressed to the nines and ready to rock the party! He timed the Ceremony music perfectly and it was perfectly executed. Once we moved to the reception it was all a blur but I know that everyone was dancing and partying their @#$'s off... He absolutely crushed it. We had a list of songs that we wanted played which he gladly did while filling the night with a mixture of slow jams and dance classics that had everyone blowing the top off the place. I couldn't recommend a better man to entrust your wedding Ceremony and Reception to. If you want quiet and calm music, or heavy metal and hard rap, he has you covered. If you want any genre from 50s-2000s and beyond, he's got you covered. He will work with you to make sure you special day is as special as you dreamed it would be. Thanks again for everything Alan, we truly appreciate all you did for us.

    Best night of my life

    Alan is an amazing DJ. He kept the crowd on the dance floor all night. He is so fun, down to earth, and easy to work with. Very professional and quick to respond. Due to COVID we had to postpone our original date and he was very flexible with switching to our new date. I highly recommend him to anyone I know getting married because he is just that good!!! When I first got engaged, he was the first vendor I reached out to because I knew he needed to be our DJ.

    Couldn’t have asked for more!

    Alan was highly recommended by many in the Lynchburg area, and he did not disappoint! Even when we threw in some last minute changes to our songs, Alan was flexible, adaptable and so easy to work with! He kept the crowd dancing all night long was exactly the DJ we were hoping for! Thank you for being such a large part of our special day! We will always be grateful for you!!

    Awesome DJ!

    Alan is the best! We loved every minute of working with him for our wedding this past June. Not only did he provide DJ services and lights for the receptions, he also helped us with a microphone for our officiant and helped our band with sound during our ceremony and cocktail hour. He truly does above and beyond for his clients! Highly recommend!

    Awesome dj

    Alan is the absolute best. We got to meet him over a year before our wedding to discuss what type of vibe we would want for our special day (we all know how important the music is for setting the tone of your entire ceremony and reception!). He was so understanding of exactly what we wanted and was so knowledgeable of the tunes we gave as examples (we had tons of international folk at our wedding, so we needed to make sure our Caribbean folk were taken care of with our soca!). Alan was so friendly, professional, hype, fun and passionate throughout this entire process with us. You always hear about the fluke moments with music/sound mess ups at a wedding....that definitely was not our wedding. Alan paid attention to all the notes I gave him and made sure to be organized and on time. There were NO mistakes throughout our ENTIRE ceremony and reception. It’s not that you’re sitting there fretting because you’re too caught up in your moment, but it was nice to know as an afterthought that “hey! We literally had the most perfect day!” Alan was a huge part of making that happen and we couldn’t be more grateful. I legit would go to anything he hosts because of how passionate and customer-service oriented he is. Thank you so much Alan. You made our day and every one of our guests and bridal party members kept raving about how awesome you are and we couldn’t agree more. We are so thankful to have had you as our DJ!

    DJ AL D was amazing! He knew the tone we wanted to set from the very beginning and offered suggestions which took the stress away from planning the music selection! Extremely professional, arrived promptly and was responsive to all email/questions. Included the children throughout the reception and creative with music of all genres for everyone to enjoy!
