The perfect DJ for us
We can't thank Rick enough for everything he did for our wedding, from answering constant questions, to helping us with the timeline, to just being a great DJ and person on our wedding day. Rick asked us what type of music we wanted and we were lost, but he guided us along the way, and he delivered a great up-beat party that kept the dance floor as full as it could be during a pandemic. He was very open about where he would set up and still did an amazing job while be stuck behind the bar due to spacing limitations. He even helped in ways we never expected a DJ to help, from making sure everything was moving well to simply making sure our glasses were always full and even carrying Kelsey's food to the table so she didn't accidentally get anything on herself. We couldn't have picked a better DJ or person for our day. Rick is awesome and I couldn't recommend him enough.

Worry Free Reception
Horizon Entertainment was absolutely amazing to work with during hectic wedding planning and a global pandemic. Rick was the utmost professional who made everything flow smoothly from the start of the planning process to the very last dance. Choosing music off of Horizon’s website was fun. It was easy to create our request list and the special details of our day when it was convenient for us. From the moment Rick met us at the reception door, I was able to relax and enjoy our guests. Rick had food ready for us upon arrival, carried my plate, and kept the day moving smoothly. I am sure a million questions came up, but he handled them all and I was able to fully enjoy our big day. Even with COVID regulations, Rick came up with fun and innovative ways to keep our guests in the spirit. We had a Battle of the College Fight Songs instead of a dollar dance and raised $350 for charity. Brian and I truly felt taken care of and had a worry free reception with Rick in charge.

Very special night
What a great night with Rick! He adapted very well to our crowd and a couple of odd requests. We had such a blast and he was a huge asset to such a memorable night. I would recommend him for any wedding or event!

Simply perfect
Horizon Entertainment provided the perfect service for our daughter‘s wedding and reception. Grant was very personable and made planning easy and stress-free. We could not have asked for anything better. Thank you for making it unforgettable and truly magnificent.

Father of the Bride
Rick was an outstanding mc/ dj for my daughter’s wedding!!!! He was extremely courteous but kept the process moving and, speaking of moving, I’ve never been to a reception that had so many happy people on the dance floor! From start to finish Rick was on top of the event and helped make our family’s special night spectacular!

What you want, Rick can provide it!
Rick Pate is an excellent choice for music at an event. I've been to events where he has chosen the music and ones where a couple has chosen the music. He has a great personality so he makes the event serious and/or fun. I love his personality and enthusiasm. He will be out there if that is needed or behind the scenes. He's a great choice and I've enjoyed listening to him and his music.

Smooth Sailing
Rick was an excellent choice for our wedding. After missing out on a couple other vendors, all directions pointed at booking Horizon Entertainment. So glad we did! He was experienced, professional, helpful, and so easy to work with. His over the top service and flexibility made us comfortable during the ceremony and reception since he did both. His pricing compared to others is a steal when evaluating the level of effort he put forth. Our dance floor was packed all night long! Thanks for everything, Rick!

Best of the best!
Rick at Horizon Entertainment was absolutely amazing. He was extremely nice, informative and helpful throughout the whole planning process. He did everything he said he would do and more! We never felt like we had a need for anything because he was right there to assist with things from helping the wedding planner to refilling our glasses without us even having to ask and everything in between. He really wanted us to feel like it was our day and he did everything in his power to make that a reality. Even saving the day to fix the bistro lights in the tent! We would recommend his services to anyone who asks!

Rick was awesome!
Rick was amazing! He was very professional every time we met prior to the wedding. He is extremely passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. He did a fantastic job at our wedding and catered to everything that we needed and we couldn't be happier to have him be our DJ.

Wedding Coordinator
As a wedding coordinator I work with many different DJs around the tri-state. However, every single client that uses this DJ ALWAYS remembers & talks about what an amazing time they had and how fun the music was that night. Rick goes out of his way to not only customize a package for each individual client, but to also put a personal touch on each experience as well. I've even seen him getting his clients their drinks. At the last wedding that Rick and I worked together on, the client had purchased Bistro lights that unfortunately stopped working right before the cocktail hour. With Rick's quick thinking and ingenuity we were able to get these lights up and running just before the reception began. He saved the day and the clients were incredibly & blissfully happy. I highly recommend this DJ

All our guests raved about our DJ!
We were so thankful for how Dustin helped us plan, execute and most importantly ENJOY the reception. All our guests repeated how great he was at keeping the flow of the event on track and getting everyone out on the dance floor to have FUN! Looking back now, selecting Horizon Entertainment turned out to be one of our favorite wedding planning choices. I highly recommend them!

More than a DJ
Rick did an amazing job at our wedding! He coordinated the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner perfectly even though he had to switch locations within the venue to accommodate our cocktail hour and room flip. He certainly kept the dance floor packed all night and made sure to play all of our favorite songs. Rick is more than a DJ, as he goes above and beyond, helping with pictures, wedding flow, and even making sure we had drinks in our hands the entire night. He is extremely attentive to detail and ended up meeting with us twice prior to the wedding to ensure our wishes were met. We would absolutely recommend him to our closest friends!

Dream day of coordinator
We used Horizon Entertainment for our day of coordinator and we could not be happier! Narnia is absolutely amazing! She met with us multiple times prior to the wedding to make sure our vision was perfectly executed. She responds to emails and texts in a timely manner and is incredibly organized. She is experienced and an expert in event coordination. I felt completely relaxed the day of the wedding knowing she was in charge. Everything went perfectly and I would absolutely recommend her to our closest friends!

Friendly, Fun, Full Package
Rick with Horizon Entertainment was amazing. My husband and I clicked with him right away and hoped that he was personally going to be our DJ. First impression at first meeting: He was quick to respond, friendly, personable, and willing to help out however he can. He followed through on everything. We had a few requests on cutting down songs and playing little snippets of songs. He was excited by our playlist and had good suggestions when we needed something. He put up some nice uplighting along the walls (cost extra, but brought a little more to the venue) which he color matched to our fall theme. He brought us drinks when we needed one and kept the night moving forward. It was especially nice when my uncle wanted to give a speech and he politely said that the only person who was allowed to have the mic was the father of the bride.

We are very happy with Rick and we highly suggest him for your wedding too! He will help you make it unforgettable!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rick with Horizon Entertainment. From my first interaction with him, he was professional, accommodating, and very pleasant. Over the course of the wedding planning process, he was very responsive with questions and was flexible in happily allowing us to add lighting to our package on short notice. We knew we were in good hands after our meeting with Rick prior to our wedding, and this took a huge weight off of our shoulders. At the wedding, Rick was much more than "just a DJ." He made sure the night went smoothly, from refilling our drinks, checking on guests, keeping us on schedule with our itinerary (and making adjustments as necessary) and much more. He was also an amazing DJ! Rick kept everyone on the dance floor, and so many of our guests specifically commented on how great he was. We would not hesitate to recommend Horizon Entertainment to our friends and family. To anyone considering- you will not regret having them be a part of your special day!

BEST DJ!!! From our first planning meeting with Rick, we knew we made the right decision hiring him! Rick went above and beyond for us and was so friendly and professional! All of our guests have made compliments on how great the dance floor was all night! From a bride and groom aspect, Rick went the extra mile to make the ceremony and reception run smoothly!
Sent on 06/16/2018
The ceremony was in a garden with no outlets and Rick worked with us so music could play for our processional and recessional. There were multiple songs that we had incorporated to the ceremony and all cues were met and the sound volume was perfect.
Our reception was at Rhinegeist Brewery and from the beginning of the dancing to the end (3.5 hours) it was filled!!! We had a 28 person head table and, throughout the entire dinner, Rick was making sure everyone had drinks and made sure everyone was doing well! He didn’t just make us feel very special but made the whole bridal party feel special which we loved! He made sure to keep on eye on us and get us back on the dance floor throughout the night too! We had brought glow sticks that we didn’t realize needed to be assembled so Rick and my husband put together about 200 glow sticks! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!
We promise hiring Horizon Entertainment will be one of the best decisions for your wedding day! Thank you for everything Rick!!!!

Super fun DJ!
Everyone from my wedding has raved about how amazing our DJ was and how impressed they were! He was fun, played the perfect mix of music throughout the evening, and even got on the dance floor to walk guests through dances. I'm so glad we chose Horizon Entertainment

My husband and I are so glad to have trusted Horizon Entertainment with our wedding day! They went above and beyond our expectations- from the first meeting we had with Rick to the day of our wedding with Grant. Any questions that we had along the way were answered quickly. When we met with Grant to plan out our ceremony and reception he made everything so easy. He was accommodating when we decided to add uplighting within the last couple weeks and arrived in a timely manner to be prepared! We are grateful that the entire day went so smoothly and that Horizon made that possible! My husband and I were most interested in having a great time at our reception and Grant exceeded our expectations. I will be recommending Horizon to all of my family and friends!! Thank you Rick and Grant for being so great!!!

We had Grant as our DJ and I could not have asked for a better person to be in charge of our entertainment. Grant made sure that we felt comfortable from the planning process all the way to the wedding day. He played great dance music, kept us informed of what was going on, and even helped us out with a few reception details. I had a wonderful reception and owe a lot of that to Grant and the Horizon Team. Thanks for going above and beyond!

I would highly recommend Horizon Entertainment! Thanks Grant!
