Scott Sent on 08/30/2024Elevated our reception to the next level!
David and his team did a wonderful job helping us make our wedding reception extra special. He served as an outstanding master of ceremonies throughout the reception and helped us with planning every step of the way. The music selection was very broad and we were able to select songs for every preference, especially for dancing! He led us off with songs for the wedding ceremony and easily transitioned to happy hour and then the reception. He worked seamlessly with our wedding planner and photographers to make sure everything progressed without delay. The sound and light quality was exceptional and we definitely got our money's worth. I highly recommend David and for any event and he will help make it unforgettable! -

Angela Sent on 03/30/2024The most caring, professional, and observant DJ
We had Dave Holmes as our DJ during our wedding in late March. First, he is very caring. Based on the questions he asked and how much he prepared before we met up, we know he wants to make sure that our wedding day run smoothly, and he did everything on his end to make that possible. He went through every single song we wanted to play during the ceremony and dance to make sure it is the version of the music we want. Second, he is very professional. During the meeting, he mentioned about all the possible problems we might run into the day of and talked about ways to solve them. He made sure he knows how to pronounce all the names. It is without doubt, Dave is very experienced and knows what he is doing. We are very relieved and confident after meeting with him. Thank you, Dave for all your hard work to make our day special! -

Dave Holmes was a fabulous DJ and Master of Ceremonies during our reception. I would highly recommend him. He went above and beyond our expectations, and even helped us out in a pinch when we needed microphones for the ceremony. Call him! -

Kasey Sent on 09/04/2022Event Exceeds Expectations!
We found Event Entertainment through our venue's recommended vendors, and we are so glad that did! First, their pricing and packaging are so affordable and it really relieved us of stress by being able to book them for our DJ, photography, and videography requests. Additionally, they were so flexible and had no issues moving our date a year later with us when we had to postpone due to Covid. They were so personable and every phone conversation, email, and text were all professional and lovely.
Meeting Dave in person beforehand was so helpful and he addressed all of our questions and requests. He was able to find all of our songs despite some of them being audio on Spotify and TikTok and walked us through the whole event. He served as a great MC for our reception as well, and collaborated with our Day of Coordinator to ensure that they kept on track.
Rob and Alex also were amazing! They had both shot the venue before and were already very knowledgeable about where to take photos. They both did a fantastic job and the photos and DVD came out better than we could have ever imagined. It was also so nice to get the highlight reel from Alex in addition to the whole ceremony! It will be great to be able to relive that day in its entirety. We definitely received more photos than we thought we would from Rob, and he did a great job getting in all the outdoor shots before the rain pushed us inside. We received everything within a couple of weeks as well!
Overall, I cannot rave enough about Event Entertainment's flexibility, friendliness, and quality. -

Matt Sent on 08/27/2022Experience That Captures Those Special Moments
Event Entertainment (and more specifically, Dave Holmes and his assistant) did an incredible job at our wedding back in May 2022! We have been to some weddings where the DJ’s playlist selection was questionable, which fragmented the dance floor experience. Selecting a great DJ was a top priority for us. After reaching out to Event Entertainment, we quickly got a response from Dave Holmes who had our date available. From our first phone call, Dave gave us confidence that he has the experience to keep the party going and read the crowd. Event Entertainment had a great website where you could list the songs that you wanted played for the important moments of your ceremony/reception. This template really helped us think about the major moments of our big day and helped the discussion with Dave as our wedding date approached. He used this form to really solidify the music plan for the day. We even had a choreographed first dance where we wanted him to fade the song at a specific moment and he seamlessly made it happen. Dave executed the event perfectly and helped make our wedding day special. We even surveyed some of our close friends to see what they thought and they loved how he ran the music. -

Tony Sent on 12/04/2021DJ Dave & Event Entertainment are incredible
Dave and his company, Event Entertainment, not only met but exceeded every single expectation we had. They were flexible with the changing environment with the pandemic, they met very specific requests that we had that made our day perfect, incorporated specific songs and music pieces we requested. I could go on and on. Dave and his team are worth every single penny and then some, and we can not recommend them any more highly! -

Dave was so accommodating to our music requests on our wedding day. He was friendly and professional, calling ahead to make sure all the songs were correct! So thoughtful! Dave had us on the dance floor for the better part of the night! He met our requests perfectly. Dave was also wonderful at interacting with our guests and very communicative throughout. I 100% recommend Dave, he will not disappoint! -

Lauryn Sent on 08/12/2021Great DJ Experience!
We were recommended Event Entertainment through our venue and it was a great experience. We used them for DJ and had the incredible Dave Holmes. He was super responsive and willing to cater to our various music needs. We had 2 edited songs and he fit them in seamlessly into the reception without a hitch! Dave was a pleasure to work with and kept the party going all night! -

Rachel Sent on 08/12/2021The best dj, photographer, & videographer you’d ever imagine at your wedding.
The Dj Dave did wonderful playing all the good music in order to keep my guest up dancing all night long. The videographer Alex and the photographer Carroll took the best shots and we absolutely loved the photos and video we got back from them. If you are looking for a videographer, photographer, & DJ look no farther they are great and you wont be disappointed! -

Amanda Sent on 08/25/2020Great Wedding DJ
Dave did a wonderful job as the DJ and emcee of our wedding. He was very familiar with the venue in Maryland and was available for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He accepted our song requests and was very flexible on last minute changes. Dave helped make our day special and was everything we wanted in a DJ. We highly recommend Dave for your wedding!

Peyton Sent on 01/21/2020Amazing DJ that Blended our Varied Musical Needs
My husband and I searched for a while to find the perfect DJ for our wedding. Dave was a perfect fit. The Venn Diagram of our wedding styles was LGBT (we are a same sex couple), top pop, Caribbean (my husband is from PR), classic dance hits, and a slight mix of sci-fi. Dave had experience in all of these styles (gay weddings, sci fi, latino, and a mix of regular top pop dance music). He balanced the music with the rotating events of the wedding (entering with some pensive Battlestar Galactica and exiting with some Star Wars), the cocktail hour, and the reception (opening with Conga and ending with Sweet Caroline). He blended our different styles into one seamless experience.
He sent us a website that linked to a music database where we could populate the songs that we found interesting as well as adding in a few random songs that he may not have in his portfolio (which was extensive). After finalizing our list, we had a pre-wedding meeting with Dave where we discussed our musical/audio expectations and finalized the plan for the night. Dave was amazingly helpful and gave us advice on which songs would be perfect (quiet, somber, exciting, dance, etc) for different parts of our night.
It was a huge success and we were very pleased with Dave. Dave was there for us whenever we needed anything. He even surprised us with a video of the event as a gift to the couple. I would highly recommend Dave to our LGBT friends and family looking for a wedding DJ. -

Breanna Sent on 12/12/2019Wedding DJ/Photobooth - HIGHLY recommend
Event Entertainment was the best dj/event group I have ever worked with! We danced our entire wedding night and our dj kept our audience entertained and engaged the entire night! We also rented a photo booth from them. The props were endless and it was a hit for the night!I would highly recommend DJ Dave Holmes and his team to anyone looking! -

Irum Sent on 11/25/2019Wonderful DJ Company
Dave was really easy to get in contact with and connected me to one of the DJs that work for him, DJ Brandon.
We had a 2 day-bi cultural wedding and DJ Brandon was able to accommodate our needs for both cultures and weddings! DJ Brandon is extremely warm, genuine and professional and was able to capture the exact atmosphere we were going for both days of our wedding. He has an extensive library of music ranging from throwbacks to contemporary music spanning several genres including South Asian music, which was needed for our wedding. Music he did not have he easily acquired and he played exactly what we asked for day of. On top of music, he was a wonderful MC during speeches to keep the evening moving a long efficiently and we really appreciated how much he checked in on us during throughout the evenings to make sure we had what we needed! Thank your for an amazing wedding DJ Brandon! -

Thomas Sent on 11/26/2018Excellent Wedding DJ
We would recommend Event Entertainment to anyone looking for a wedding DJ. We worked with Dave Holmes. He is very responsive to our music choices and coordinated perfectly with the rest of the other wedding vendors to ensure a smooth operation. -

Catie Sent on 11/16/2018Knows how to keep the party going!
Dave from Event Entertainment was a true gem to work with. We used his services for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and rehearsal for our September wedding and he kept the party going all night! He was always quick to respond (even when I wasn't, bad bride alert! Thank you for your patience, Dave!) and never said no to our song requests, even if our picks weren't currently in his library.
We are still getting notes back about how much fun people had at our wedding and I attribute that to Dave and his team that kept the floor full the whole time! I would absolutely recommend Event Entertainment. -

Katie Sent on 11/14/2018Amazing Team!
We used Event Entertainment for DJ services, Videography, Photo booth, and up lighting and everything was wonderful. Dave and his team were professional and responsive and overall wonderful to work with. We have gotten nothing but compliments on our reception from how great the music was to all the awesome props for the photo booth and the uniqueness of our Guest Book (photo strips from the photo booth). Dave as our DJ was wonderful and checked in through out to make sure we were keeping on track with the timeline for the reception. We sat down with him a couple days before the wedding to go over everything and he even confirmed he had the correct songs downloaded and edited so there were no issue or mix ups. I truly appreciated that effort as we had heard horror stories of the wrong songs being played. We were nervous about keeping people on the dance floor especially since we tend to listen to music not a lot of people listen to. Dave kept it as a good mix of what we requested and what he knew would keep people going and we couldn't be happier.
I would also like to mention we are very impressed to have received our final wedding video 3 weeks after the wedding. We honestly weren't expecting to see it until after Christmas. While we haven't watched it yet, if it's anything like the highlight video we received it's going to be incredible. -

Karen Sent on 09/13/2017The DJ for our event was Brandon, who came recommended by a friend. He did a great job, finding our requests and fitting the dinner and dancing music to our tastes and was very unobtrusive throughout the event. He also did the ceremony music and was really cooperative with meeting me and playing a bunch of different options for processional music to find what I liked best. We were really happy overall and their pricing was very reasonable. -
![Pia]()
Pia Sent on 11/02/2016I got in contact with Dave about 8 months ago when I first started researching DJs. From the very first moment we spoke I could tell how professional and easy he would be to work with. Dave always responsed promptly and was extremely flexible during my busy schedule (being in military training during the last 4 months before the wedding). Dave knows his stuff. Since it was a half-Hispanic wedding, he provided a great mix of Latin and American music that both sides of the family enjoyed! He is also always there to help and offer suggestions but will never step on your toes. I could say millions of great things about Dave's services, but I'll just some it up by saying that he made my wedding day perfect. Highly recommend to anyone!
