    Best dj ever!

    Elite Events (Ryan) was recommended to us by our vendor, The Pearl at Crawford Farm. From our first outreach to the last song of the evening, Ryan exceeded every expectation. Ryan understands the important role that music plays in setting the tone for a wedding, and he delivered beautifully. Because we’d never done this before, we leaned heavily on Ryan for guidance about timelines, song options, special “music” moments, fun "add on" options, etc. He was spot on with his recommendations and we appreciated his patience when we came to him with last minute questions and requests. He was the consummate professional; a great communicator, responsive, easy to work with, and fun to have as a participant for our daughter’s wedding. We highly recommend Elite Events and will definitely use them again. Sending a big “thank you” to Ryan for making the day so special for all in attendance and for being so great to work with!

    Amazing vibes

    Ryan was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He was so good at ensuring we only played the songs that my husband and I liked and was so good at engaging the crowd. Highly recommend him to anyone that likes to dance the night away and have a great time with good vibes!

    Amazing experience, highly recommend

    Elite Events and our DJ Jordan as somutelu killed it! I was most nervous about the DJ aspect of wedding planning and Elite Events took so much of the stress away! The app made it super easy and helped with the timing/planning of everything so you didn’t feel like you were starting from scratch. Our DJ was awesome and definitely made us feel like our enjoyment and relieving stress was his number one priority. Honestly do not have one bad thing to say, would choose them again and again!

    Elite is amazing!

    Ryan and Elite was amazing. Couldn't have been happier with everything he helped with from the ceremony, reception and photo booth. Everyone had a blast and he nailed it every step of the way. Everything was perfect...thank you Elite!

    Ryan is the Man!

    Ryan was the perfect DJ for our wedding! From our first meeting with him through to our last dance, he was organized, responsive, and so helpful. He gave great recommendations and made sure to play the music my husband and I love. He was a dream to work with. Even brought me drinks from the bar! Everything went so smooth on our day and Ryan was a big part of that. Highly recommend Elite Events for your wedding day!

    Fun, professional and a must book for your event

    Would highly recommend Elite Events for your wedding/event and more specifically Kaiden. He was helpful from the day we had our "pre-event" meeting until the cleanup of the wedding. He was responsive to our requests and even helped us plan the flow of the reception. He adjusted and planned for a more unique venue set up and kept the night rolling from introductions to keeping a super fun dance floor. He was incredibly professional the entire time. He quickly adjusted to the people on the dance floor and chose music based on keeping everyone dancing and having a great time. He was amazing and we would book again. We can't say enough good things (and neither could our guests and families) about how awesome Kaiden was. Book him for sure for your event!

    The best of the best!

    Do not look anywhere else! Elite Events was the best choice for a dj. Ryan was so personable, helpful, kind and made everything go so smoothly. He played our slideshow before the wedding and our video of our story without any mistakes. He helped throughout the night and even took my plate when I was done eating... I mean what kind of dj goes out of their way to do that?! I would choose Ryan and Elite events everyday. He made our day amazing. Do not look anywhere else you will not regret it. We got married at the Pearl, that of which he is very familiar with and helped everything go so smoothly. We can’t say enough good things and I will always recommend Elite Events!

    Amazing!

    Ryan was the DJ for our wedding this past Saturday and he did an amazing job!! We had a quick 30 minute meeting a few weeks out to discuss what we wanted for our special day. He sent a schedule out a week in advance for us to review and the day of our wedding was seamless! He kept the flow of the evening going exactly as planned. Would highly recommend Ryan for your wedding or event!

    Can't Say Enough Good Things!

    Ryan was amazing to work with. He took time to listen to our vision for the ceremony and reception. He added so many requested personal touches that made it an evening to remember. He was always responsive, organized, and professional. Almost every guest at the wedding commented on how great he was. We would highly recommend Elite Events for any upcoming event!

    Extremely helpful, does more than you can ask, hell of a time

    Ryan with Elite Events was more than we could have asked for. He recommended the "musical chair" game for our guests and we still haven't stopped hearing about how great it was. Ryan will give you the perfect mix of music you are wanting. We are younger and wanted some mixed music and he threw his own out there. We danced until we closed the place down and had an amazing time. The photo-booth was a lot of fun and has given us many pictures that we will laugh at for years to come. Ryan was so helpful and right on with everything he promised. I would go to no one else if you want to know you are in good hands and will have fun.

    I can't say enough great things about Ryan and Elite Events.

    I can't say enough great things about Ryan and Elite Events. Our wedding was on September 28th which ended up being a very rainy night and we had to move our wedding ceremony inside. Ryan was so great and adapted to our change of plans so well. From the very beginning of planning I was very particular and detail oriented. Ryan met with my husband and I a month before and went over every detail so that I felt confident the day of. He was amazing! He ran the music for our ceremony and made sure to fade out all the songs beautifully. He also ran every detail of our reception perfectly, played great songs all night and made sure everyone was having a blast. Our wedding day was the best day ever and we know Ryan was big reason why. I highly reccomend him to anyone looking for a great DJ for their upcoming wedding!

    The Best Wedding DJ

    I couldn’t be more impressed with how great Elite Events Mobile DJ & Event Production was for our wedding ceremony and reception! Ryan makes sure that everything is well planned and executed smoothly throughout the whole night. The mirror me booth is a perfect addition to any wedding, and keeps the guests entertained the whole time. Jackson did a wonderful job running the photo booth and assisting the guests. I highly recommend Elite Events Mobile DJ & Event Production for any wedding!

    Amazing DJ and Great to Work With

    Elite Events with Ryan was an outstanding DJ! My husband and I could not be happier with how our wedding ceremony and reception went. Ryan was so easy to work with from the beginning and is very detailed oriented. He made the planning process so smooth and was always so quick to respond. He also put together a timeline for the day of events, which was super helpful! Our wedding took place on our family farm, and he did an amazing job adapting to our location. The weather was questionable the day of our wedding, and he was very flexible when we were deciding whether to have the ceremony outside or inside. He made the reception so much fun for all our guest and everyone had a blast on the dance floor! He also has a great website and app, making the music selection process easy! We were able to pick and add our favorite songs for certain moments of the day and then he put together the remaining playlist for the reception. His music selection was wonderful and just what we were looking for! Overall, Ryan was amazing to work with and will help make your event fun and memorable!

    Wedding DJ

    Brett did such an amazing job as the DJ at our wedding!! He worked with us to make sure the music was exactly what we wanted. All of our guests had a great time dancing all evening! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our special day. Thank you, Brett and Elite Events!

    everything was perfect!!

    Ryan was wonderful during our reception!! He played all the songs we requested, kept the timeline going and was nothing but professional!! The uplights that he provided were absolutely beautiful! Also, the magic mirror was a HUGE hit with our guests!! We would give Elite Events 10 stars if we could!!

    Best choice out there. No, really - I researched.

    Ryan and his crew did a phenomenal job. His initial questions and process helped to confirm that it was mutually a good fit, and then after we choose him, he helped to plan our reception's timing and events. I really appreciated his attention to detail, communication skills and ability to deliver the exact vision I had for our reception. Oh, and the Mirror Me (photo booth type thing) was AWESOME. Absolutely worth it - nearly every guest I've talked to loved that more than anything else at our reception. Thank you, Ryan, and thank you to his assistant for the night, Jackson! Would absolutely recommend!

    Excellent DJ!

    Ryan did a fantastic job at our wedding! He was professional, reliable, and fun to work with. From the first consultation through the wedding reception, he answered all of our questions and delivered exceptionally well. He has a great presence, kept things running on schedule, and customized our music. He also checked in with us from time to time throughout the wedding night to see if we needed anything. We received multiple comments from guests on how great our DJ was! No hesitation to recommend him to others!

    Friendly, organized, and easy to work with.

    Ryan was very friendly and easy to work with! He created a timeline of events for us and sent it to us the week of our wedding and is the reason our reception went so smoothly. He has a great company and would highly recommend them to anyone.

    Exceptional and so fun!

    My husband and I could not have asked for a better DJ at our wedding! Ryan was absolutely amazing!! With our ceremony being outside on a golf course, multiple musicians needing to hook up to the same sound system, our first dance on the 18th green and cocktail hour and our reception being inside, it was somewhat of a difficult setup. Ryan was so organized and knew exactly what needed to be done for everything to go as smoothly as possible. He did just that and so much more. I never had to worry about a thing. Not to mention, our dance floor was packed and overflowing all night long!! We received so many compliments from guests about Ryan at our wedding, and still a month later, our guests continue to talk about how great our DJ was. Highly recommend!!

    Ryan was fantastic! He was super friendly, easy to talk with! We met a couple times to go over the timeline and services, we had a wonderful website that allowed us to enter song requests that was easy to use. He created a timeline and sent it the week of the wedding, was very organized! I let Ryan decide on a lot of the music and he did a phenomenal job! I cannot say enough good things about his company!

    Elite Events with Ryan was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. He provided services for the outdoor ceremony, reception, and photobooth! The outdoor ceremony was perfect because you normally don't get to hear the officiate all that well and everyone in the back told us that they heard every word. Ryan timed the entry songs just right for the guest seating and bridal party entry. For the reception, we had a scheduled timeline for the night (first dances, cake cutting, speeches) and it went well. We really enjoyed the fact that we were able to choose what songs we wanted to have played ahead of time and Ryan's website made it even easier. Everyone loved his MirrorMe photo booth too! I really suggest that anyone needing his services to not be afraid to book him, trust me!Read Less

    Ryan did an excellent job with our wedding and reception. When it started down pouring and the tents were blowing away, he helped keep everything organized and calm after the storm. Our guests loved the music and they stayed dancing the whole night. I also booked the Mirror Me Booth that Lyndee ran. Everyone loved it and she was so great running it and printing the pictures for a scrapbook. He is so easy to get ahold of and work with if you have concerns. He showed up plenty early to make sure we had everything ready and checked on us throughout the night to make sure we were okay! Everything was so great and Ryan and his team had a lot to do with it!

    Ryan was fantastic!!! My original DJ unfortunately died in a car accident early on in the planning process and Ryan was willing to step up and accept the job! He met with my Husband and I before our wedding to get an idea about what kind of couple we were and our music tastes! He has an online planning platform that made my job easy filling in songs to play etc. Also, if he didn’t have a song, he found it for us like our first dance song without any complaint or hesitation! He had three rooms to work at our wedding and did it flawlessly! He and his partner, made our gestures feel welcome during cocktail hour while we weren’t there, and they really enjoyed themselves! He did an amazing job with the uplighting in the three rooms and doing it sight unseen as it was not one of his normal venues (3 hours north of KC in Iowa no less)! He has many extras that he doesn’t push on you sub as a photo booth and more. He worked within my budget and even offered deals at different times of the year on different things, to you out! He was the best, and I would pick him over again, if I was just starting this process! I would highly recommend him!!

    Ryan took excellent care of us on our wedding day! The music sounded great during the outside ceremony and he kept the reception events flowing smoothly. He also was able to keep the party alive by DJing during the bands breaks! We ended up having an awesome dance party! Ryan is very accommodating to your needs! I highly recommend him!
