    Above and Beyond

    Gary was great! He kept the party going all night! 💃🏻🕺🏻 He was very accommodating and he even got my husband and I drinks right after the ceremony ended. Everyone loved the extra lighting and the fan that he added to the dance floor. He took song requests as well as played from a list I had provided him. He even took pictures and videos. I would highly recommend his services!

    My special day was made better with the amazing entertainment that was provided by the talented Gary Johnson. I truly believe that everyone should have such a customized performance that suits their environment and what they actually want, rather than having a DJ that does not listen to your requests.

    I recommend these services to anyone who is looking for them, and even some who aren't! I would absolutely use these services again!

    Wonderful!

    Gary performed for me and my wife's wedding and he was nothing short of spectacular. He played the piano during our ceremony and all 3 songs we requested were perfect. He also DJ/MC'd our reception and we were so happy with all he did. Thanks Gary!

    Best DJ Ever

    I’ve been to several weddings and other events where Gary was the DJ, so it was a no brainer for me to book him for ours. It was my first time working directly with him, and it was absolutely awesome. Not only is he extremely talented, he knows how the wedding needs to flow, makes sure everything is on track, keeps the dance floor FULL, and had me in tears for our last dance. Everything about our night was amazing, and Gary played a HUGE part in that. Thank you SO much for everything Gary, you are the best!!!!

    Entertaining DJ

    Gary was very easy to work with and did a fantastic job DJing our wedding. Once it was time to dance, he knew exactly what to play to get people on the dance floor, and that’s where most people stayed! Our music selection was something that my new husband and I wanted taken as a priority, and Gary did not disappoint in following our requests. His prices are very reasonable and we’d recommend his services to anyone!

    Gary knows how to get a wedding to party! I would recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ that is going to get your guests having fun, without a load of awkward small talk. His uplighting really jazzes up a room too!

    Gary is the most amazing DJ and musician I have ever had the pleasure of meeting! He did everything I asked for and he went above and beyond what any DJ would or should ever do! Honestly if it wasn't for him my wedding could have been a huge disaster.

    Gary is very Professional but Personable at the same time. He did a fantastic job at my sisters wedding. Catered to all music types. Had a great set up. I would recommend him for any event that requires entertainment. Only downfall is that he is so popular he is hard to book. So I recommend getting ahold of him well in advance. Keep up the awesome customer service.

    I'd recommend Gary to anyone looking for a DJ for any event, not just a wedding. He was flexible and easy going making my reception experience much more relaxing. We all know "planned" events never go quite as smooth, so any request or change in the order of our songs, cake cutting etc. he was accomodating to the tee. Last second I asked him to change up the father/daughter dance, and his response was absolutely. PERFECT pick chosing him for our DJ. Thanks Gary for being a part of our special day.

    We absolutely loved having Elevated Events for our wedding! Gary was amazing!!! Gary was very professional and met with us on multiple occasions. He did an awesome job playing the piano for our ceremony and all of our guests have told us the music and uplighting was great! Gary was very helpful when planning our wedding, he even helped us find the best cupcakes!! If your having trouble deciding between a band or a DJ, Elevated events can give you best of both worlds offering DJ services with live music! Gary also had no problem accommodating our last minute requests!! Having worked banquets for 10 years has allowed me to see DJ's all the time, and Gary is the absolute BEST!!!

    Gary was amazing!!! As a DJ he played all of the right songs at the right time. All the artist/songs we chose we heard during the 4 hours of our reception. The uplighting in the our banquet hall was outstanding thanks to Gary also. We and our guest were so blessed by having him there for our special day. Thank Again!!

    Gary was AMAZING and we would give him 6 stars if we could! Everything we needed was right there when we needed it. Our consultations were so thorough that by the time our big day was here we were able to be so much more relaxed and comfortable. His light show blew our guests away and the uplighting made our room look like a million dollars.

    I could not have picked a better DJ for my wedding! Gary helped make what could've have been a very hectic planning phase, so seamless and so much less stressful. Everything from the planning and appointments down to the day of the wedding, he remained very professional, offered suggestions based on his expertise (while still honoring my decisions), and did everything with a smile on his face. He is truly wonderful to work with and so very talented on many levels. I don't have a single complaint, and I will be recommending him to anybody looking for a dj, lighting & decor, planning, etc. Thank you Gary, for helping to make our day perfect!

    Gary made out special day completely unforgettable. From day one, he answered any questions we had and was very in tune to knowing and understanding all of our wants and concerns. He stayed in constant contact with us and made sure all of our announcements were perfect and we had every song we wanted or needed for the day. The day of the event, he was on time, dressed professionally, and totally prepared. Our guests didn't want to sit down all night! He was elegant but rocked the house from start to finish. And everyone loved his lighting show.
