    5 Star Review!

    Chris Laing was so awesome!! Everyone at the wedding did not leave the dance floor from the second the music started playing to the very last song. Our guests were begging for more. Not only did he absolutely nail our vision and "vibe", he was so helpful during the planning process as well. We had a few different meetings to really lock in the details. He was very personable and supportive during the whole thing, we highly recommend!

    DJ John Black Tie Entertainment | Brought the House Down!

    John was a true professional. It was the little things John did that made all the difference...transitions, announcements, reading the room, choosing the right songs at the right times. We received so many compliments from our guests about DJ John!

    Smooth Operator

    Andrew Nelson was our DJ and he made the night go easier for us than I could have ever imagined. He worked flawlessly with our coordinator and brought a presence to the wedding that was exactly what we were looking for. He played great music and kept energy high. We never once had to wonder why he hadn't done something or when he would do something. He executed perfectly. I saw more people dancing at our wedding than any I had been to and the dance floor was populated all night.

    Everyone LOVED the DJ!

    DJ Matt Johnson was our DJ from Black Tie and we could not be happier with how the night went! DJ Matt was efficient, extremely knowledgeable (about music and weddings in general), and easy to work with. During our reception he could quickly read the room and adjust to fit the overall vibe and keep the night running smoothly. At our wedding in particular, dinner went much faster than expected and he asked our permission to open the dance floor early. We trusted his judgement so much and let him have a lot of leeway from our end, but really appreciated that he always checked with us first before making any changes. There was not a moment the dance floor was empty --he played fantastic music all night! He cares very much about his work which was shown through his attention to detail (we very much appreciated how concerned he was with pronouncing everyone's names correctly)! After the wedding, our guests would not stop talking about how great the DJ was! During our wedding planning all we really wanted was "good food, good drinks, and good music" and DJ Matt gave us fantastic music! It was so fun working with him, he is an awesome guy, and I would recommend him to anyone!

    You're in good hands

    It’s hard to overstate how much of a pleasure it was working with Black Tie and our DJ. With all of the predictable challenges that come with planning a wedding, it felt like a relief to work with a company is on top of what they do and pays attention to the finer details. Some big topline things to start: very reasonably priced wedding packages, ability to set up music in multiple spots throughout a venue, user friendly self-service portal that allows you to pick out all of your requested/ceremony related songs, and the option to add on one of their own in-house day of coordinators (shout out to Becca, she was amazing!).
    Working specifically with Chris as our DJ was a great and effortless experience, and from all the options there are in the area, I feel like we really lucked out with him. Throughout the whole process he was very professional and communicative, but also very easy to get along with, and it felt that he was as invested in the success of the event as we were. He was very detailed oriented. Every meeting we had with him, he would always take the time to methodically review the timeline of our wedding details hour by hour to make sure that we had every necessary detail throughout the day accounted for. The reception was a real high point. After smoothly MC’ing through all of the wedding party intros, ceremonial dances, and speeches, I just remembered Chris put on Dancing Queen to start the dancing and became an absolute vibe magician throughout the rest of the night. That dance floor never went empty the rest of the night, and he deserves an immense amount of credit for making that happen. If you’re still looking for a DJ, look no further!

    A Crucial Part of Our Special Day

    Black Tie Entertainment was essential in making our wedding day perfect! Our DJ, John Lukehart, was fantastic to work with and made sure our guests were on the dance floor as soon as it opened until the end of the night. He was an amazing master of ceremonies and worked with us to make sure that the music throughout the day was exactly how we envisioned it to be!

    DJs for Music Couples!!

    Everyone always says their DJ was great, but Black Tie - specifically Rick! - takes that to a whole other level. My husband and I had some pretty specific ideas about music and wanted our wedding to cover multiple genres throughout the night (from a classical ceremony to a jazzy cocktail hour to an EDM reception). Rick was extremely accommodating to our requests, and the tool that Black Tie uses kept us really organized. We definitely felt involved and well-informed the entire time, and knew that there wouldn't be any surprises come the big day! Lastly, Rick is an awesome human being and we loved working with him SO much. We cannot recommend him enough!!

    Fantastic Experience

    We cannot thank Stephi enough for being a part of our wonderful day! Everything would not have been the same without her hard work to bring our dream to reality, and her help in creating unforgettable moments, from the very first meeting, planning, to the very end of our special day! She always made sure our guests and us have a great time. We loved every minute of it!

    It’s Wedding Day!

    All I will say is, our event went down without a single bump in the road and the DJ was spot on adding some fun and comic relief when needed and acted professional and approachable at all times. Would we use him again? You bet! He had ample speakers and lighting and equipment to make the wedding special. Thank you again!

    Loved DJ Rick!!

    Love Black Tie Entertainment and their whole platform! My husband and I were continuously impressed by how organized this group is and how helpful their online portal was that allows you to pick out your music, edit your timeline, etc. They met with us multiple times to help guide us through the process.
    Now DJ Rick Pfamatter was just the best choice for our wedding—he was so friendly and helpful guiding us through the process in our meetings beforehand, and on the day of, he made our wedding day SO much fun and just run smoothly. It gave us great confidence that he was so committed to providing the wedding day we wanted, and he delivered!
    These guys are at the top of their game, worth every penny!

    Reliable and Great to work With

    We worked with DJ Eric and he was our favorite vendor to work with. We really valued Black Tie Entertainment's organization and processes. We trusted the value they would provide, and Eric really got to know us as a couple and what we wanted our wedding to be like. Music choices were 10/10 and our guests and we had so much fun!!

    60th Wedding Anniversary

    We were very pleased with Black Tie Entertainment. My initial contact was Matt. He asked me to give him a brief description of what I wanted the party to look like. After talking with him, he said he had “just the DJ for your event”. And he certainly did. Eddy-Bobby was our DJ and he was great. Easy to talk to, had great suggestions, friendly, fun, and professional at all times. It was a pleasure to work with this company.

    The dance floor was packed all night!

    Chris from Black Tie was the perfect DJ at our wedding! Every song he played got a great reaction from all of our guests and the dance floor was packed the whole night long. He was also super helpful during all of our phone calls leading up to the event and made everything stress free. 100% recommend Black Tie!

    Adaptable and talented!

    We were matched with Rick as our DJ and he was amazing! He had a great sense of music, very friendly, and can take command of the room when needed. He listened to all of our special requests and was flexible with our timeline. It rained on our day and the live violinists we had planned on for the ceremony could not play due to their instruments getting wet so DJ Rick took the initiative to set up his equipment in the rain as a back up. Although we ended up doing our ceremony inside, I still really appreciated his efforts. Would highly recommend!

    DJ Mike was absolutely the best!!!

    We worked with DJ Mike from Black Tie Entertainment and I genuinely couldn't imagine someone else providing the entertainment for our cocktail hour and reception. From the beginning, he was attentive, fun, professional, and really cared about what we were looking for. I did not have a planner to recommend entertainment so I went off reviews and what I felt in my gut. I knew from the first phone call Mike would deliver and was the guy for us. He knew exactly how to read the room and dance floor and it was truly filled the entire night. I wanted to make sure there was a mix in genres that all ages could dance too/have heard since we had a mixed group, and he provided exactly that!! I had multiple guests come up to me and say the music is incredible. You will not regret booking with DJ Mike! He is a fantastic DJ and wonderful person all around!!!

    Thank you, Chris Laing

    Chris Laing from Black Tie Entertainment was the perfect addition to our wedding and reception. He was easy to work with before the wedding and very organized, making sure he knew what we wanted from the evening. He kept the volume at a reasonable level during dinner (which the old people appreciated) and cranked it up afterwards to get the party started. We wanted a low-key feel, but at the same time, wanted the dance floor to be filled, and Chris succeeded in both of these goals. We also ordered the uplighting which added a really nice touch to our venue as the sun went down.

    Fun,Easy,Flawless

    John was great! Very thorough in the whole process. Both him and Victoria paid close attention to the detail and helped make our experience great. John read the room very well to get the dancing going and Victoria seemed like she was always one step ahead. Would highly recommend Black Tie Entertainment for your wedding

    An Incredible DJ and Even Better MC

    I would highly, highly highly recommend James from Black Tie Entertainment. He was incredibly professional, prompt and organized. We had multiple meetings over zoom before the big day and he coordinated with the venue completely independently. During the evening, he didn't miss a beat. The energy and timing was perfect the whole night through. He was even able to manage some tricky quiet hours restrictions from our venue without anyone even noticing. We had an incredible time thanks to James and I can't thank him enough.

    Eddy the DJ was the BEST!

    Eddy was the DJ for our ceremony and reception. He did everything we asked for and more. At each point of the event, he managed to keep the volume EXACTLY where we wanted it, and kept the dance floor going until the very end. In the days leading up to the wedding, he was reachable and really LISTENED to everything we said! Highly Recommend!

    Angelica Jones

    John and Angelica's communication through our entire wedding procesws was off the charts!
    Angelica was such a wonderful DJ, and helped Zach and I plan our perfect day! She was very kind, professional, and was willing to be flexible when we had a couple of changes during our wedding day!

    I cannot recommend Angelica and Black Tie Entertainment enough! We had a 12/10 experience with them and are so thankful!

    We love DJ Mike!

    Black Tie entertainment was a company we saw at several of our friends' weddings over the last two years. They came highly recommended to us from those couples. We got to meet Mike, the DJ for those weddings, at another event and clicked quickly. He's professional, clear with his vision, and flexible. Cost is a major consideration for any wedding, and Black Tie was very open to working with us and helping pick and choose services to make the wedding exactly what we wanted. Prior to speaking with Mike, we were still unsure of our timeline and how we would cram everything in, but after one meeting with him we suddenly felt much more confident and secure. Outside of just cost, he was also interested in our wedding's vibe, and worked hand in hand with us to craft the "feeling" of the wedding. We didn't want to just have club music, and he helped put together playlists and signals for major events of the wedding. We got hit with a heatwave in the week leading up to the wedding and had to adjust a lot of plans very quickly, and he was quick to adapt to changing circumstances, and worked hand in hand with our coordinators and other vendors to ensure everything went smoothly. He was a great MC, he helped keep things on track the entire night, and he didn't miss a single cue or have anything run late. He checked in with us prior to and during the ceremony, and overall was instrumental in making the wedding work. Could not recommend him and Black Tie enough, absolutely made our wedding a success and kept the dance floor packed despite the weather.

    Great vibe and dedication to the client

    This company was very professional and did amazing at our wedding in June. There were multiple DJs to choose from. Once we chose our DJ there were multiple meetings prior to the event and the DJ was very helpful in planning the music etc for our wedding. Unfortunately prior to our event our DJ got sick, and Black Tie was very responsive and immediately provided a back up DJ that also did an amazing job. Very responsive to crowd, and knowledgeable.

    Highly Recommend!

    My husband was worried about hiring a DJ. After multiple conversations, I was assured.l John was the DJ for us. After the wedding, even my husband agreed John did an amazing job! We gave John complete creative control of our music to read the dance floor, and our guests all danced the night away! He listened to what we wanted and ran with it, my husband and I and our guests had so much fun. We highly recommend him, he even looked like he was having a blast, and our guests loved that, too! We can’t say enough good things about him.
