    7 Years and Counting!

    We have had Innovative Blends as the DJ for our senior prom for the past 7 years. They have been professional, fun, and responsive to our needs. The music selection and mixing during the event is great, and the photobooth, including the 360 Booth, is always a hit! They are always trying to stay current and use the latest technology and trends to give a great experience! Our students have enjoyed prom each year- that’s why we keep coming back!

    Hands down best decision

    To say that Marcus and Innovative Blends were amazing at our wedding would be the biggest understatement I have ever made. From the start of planning to the very last song of the night, Marcus was nothing but professional, personal, and all around the party king. We only had a few songs that we wanted for the night, but gave him the rest of the night to do as pleased with the musical choices. He did not disappoint with his seemless transitions and choices of music to keep the dance floor full the entire night !! It wasn't just us either, we received a number of compliments from our guests stating that the dj we chose was the best they have ever heard and we completely agree with every one of them. We 100 percent would, and will recommend Marcus to anyone looking for a musical genius for their special night !!

    The greatest experience!

    My husband and I met Marcus a few years ago at a wedding and knew immediately we needed him to DJ our wedding. Marcus and Kris made this experience incredibly easy through their responsiveness, collaboration, and advice on not only music but on life and love. Our reception was without a doubt our favorite part. All of our favorite music was played and Marcus knew how to keep people on the floor, dancing and hyped throughout the entire reception. My husband and I would give Innovative Blends Entertainment 10 stars if we could.

    Great DJ and MC !

    We hired Marcus for our October wedding after he was recommended by a photographer friend. He was very professional, outgoing, and I have gotten countless compliments about his skills! He played every song I asked for but I didn’t need a playlist which took so much stress off me and my now husband! . He read the crowd and rolled with it and I loved that! Being able to trust a professional to do his/her job is so important and I put my trust into him and he did not disappoint! We also got the Photo Booth which all the guests loved! He gave me a scrapbook filled with copies of our guests pictures with messages written from them (which i didn’t know was even part of the package) ! 10/10 recommend!

    Incredible from start to finish!

    Innovative Blends was an absolute dream to work with! Not only did Marcus DJ my reception, he was also my officiant for my ceremony! He wrote an incredible personalized ceremony script for us, and kept the music going in the style we wanted it all evening long for the reception. We also had a Photo Booth, to which we received a really nice photo book with a copy of pictures that our guests took through the night and signed messages next to. It was a really nice keepsake. Everyone at our wedding had an incredible time, and complimented how awesome the music was. I can’t recommend his services enough!

    DJ Marcus Smith

    I got recommended by my dad about Marcus and he did not disappoint!!!! He really knew how to get a crowd going and how to keep them going. I already had another couple ask for him, and even my husband’s grandparents just for one of their parties. He’s super nice, timely, and just did a great job overall. Highly recommend.

    Marcus makes the music and all details specifically for your liking and personality

    I wish I could write a novel. I did not know Marcus from Adam. Signing up with someone who I knew nothing about was very unnerving, but out of all the vendors of the entire evening he literally was the best! He tailored the music to our desires and was very encouraging when other things were going wrong. The compliments from our guests were never ending. Absolutely the best!

    Marcus is amazing

    Marcus is seriously the best DJ around, it’s not just his technical skill as a dj but his true passion for what he does. We spoke multiple times leading up to my wedding, every time we spoke he went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable with whatever topic we were discussing. The day of my wedding he was at the venue wayyyy earlier then expected to set up and make sure everything was perfect. His dj booth is so nice aesthetically pleasing I had no concern about it being in my pictures, he brought screens that had our names and wedding date displayed (I had no idea he was doing that) which made it look even better. Marcus did everything he could to keep my day on track, completely nailed the right music for our crowd and seriously kept the party going all night! I think a dj is the single most important vendor at a wedding, they are what makes or breaks if your wedding is memorable or not and Marcus 1,000 % delivered!! Damen was also with Marcus (another dj from the company) and HE was an absolute blast! Out on the dance floor with our guests in his light up shoes making sure the party NEVER stopped. The next day both of them sent me the BEST photos/ videos of our first dance from an angle i hadn’t seen (the dj booth had a clear shot to the dance floor) I really just can’t say enough wonderful things about them! They both went above and beyond to make sure we had the BEST WEDDING EVER (I may be partial) but they truly blew us away! I’m still getting calls/ texts a week later asking for their contact info and complimenting our dj team as “the best they’ve seen” if you’re reading this and deciding which dj to use, stop now and call Marcus, you will be so glad you did! Thank you Marcus and Damen! You guys are amazing!!

    The Best DJ in Cleveland

    Where do I start.... Marcus and Amy made my wedding day. I was a nervous bride, not sure of what details I needed or needed help with. Marcus helped me from day one, with song selections to helping me with wedding day itinerary. I was nervous about my walk in song not matching up with me. He immediately dropped what he had planned and came to my rehearsal dinner at the venue with his speakers and took full control of the ceremony. We were 100% lost without his help. He eased our nerves and made it a seamless ceremony. Not only did he go above and beyond for me... I woke up as an anxious, nervous bride my wedding morning and looked at my phone and had the sweetest, calming, supportive message from Marcus. My morning was a bit brighter because of him. Every concern I had, involving anything about my wedding not just DJ questions, he figured it out and I did not have to lift one finger on my day. He got EVERYONE on the dance floor including 90+ year old's dancing for hours. My grandmother had to be hauled out because she was having so much fun dancing. My wish was that everyone was involved, young and older guests on the dance floor, and they were.. all night. I never had to give him a song list because everything he played was exactly the type of music the crowd LOVED. Every time I looked over at him he was smiling and having a great time. I got so many compliments on the music and organization. He knows how to work a crowd! Everyone was dancing and having fun all night on the dance floor.

    The same with Amy, who is just the angel of my wedding day. She took control of us walking out, making sure we were at the right part. She fixed my dress multiple times before walking out. She protected me all night from veil tangles, nerves, and making sure Mike and I were having the best night of our life. She called tables to get up and get dinner one by one, she ran the photo booth which was by far one of the best decisions we made, so much fun! She made us a photo booth book of everyone and their goofy pictures, I will forever treasure it! I cannot say enough about Marcus and Amy. From the help of dinner and walking down the aisle, to the photo booth, to the beautiful lighting, my wedding was the best night of my life and I really do thank Amy and Marcus because of that.

    Fantastic Service

    Marcus was amazing! He kept the flow of our evening moving along. Our dance floor was full all night. We got more compliments on our DJ than I could keep track of. Highly recommended. We couldn’t thank him enough for the amazing service provided. Photo booth services were awesome too!

    DJ Zach B is a great DJ to have at an event!

    We had a blast at my daughters quinceañera party! DJ Zach B was awesome! He was great to work with and was very flexible with our song list! He is diverse when it comes to playing English and Spanish music! Don't hesitate to contact him for an event!

    Blown away

    Words cannot describe how amazing Marcus was!!! Every single person at our wedding had a blast and the dance floor was PACKED all night long. The venue was kicking us out and we still had a full dance floor. Marcus held it down for us from beginning to end and I will vouch for him until I’m blue in the face. Thank you!!

    Innovative Blends Entertainment's reply:

    Lydia and Kyle it was such a great joy. I put my heart into every event I do and give my all. I had a favorite wedding from 2014 that stayed in my mind for a long time, but your day of family and friends who danced the night away is what I hope for and will aspire to take the level of every event we do from here forward. From the first song your crowd pulled me in as that is who we feed off of. Your little brother only left the floor to take his shirt off. Amazing night is definitely an understatement. Thank you for trusting your big day to us. Our goal is to have your guest telling you that they had an amazing time at your reception for days and years to come. That confirms you made the right decision on your entertainment.

    Absolutely amazing, would give 10 stars if I could!

    Marcus and his team were absolutely amazing for our wedding! Not only is he a pleasure to work with but him and his partner were willing to help with whatever was needed for the day. The music was amazing and we even got to sing karaoke! We got so many compliments from our guests about Marcus, he was so interactive with everyone and truly made our day awesome! The photo booth was a huge hit and we got a scrap book of all the pictures which was so awesome! Marcus even went out of his way to get my grandmas dinner for her while she was watching my young son which was so polite and thoughtful. His lighting was absolutely perfect and he had a really nice light projection with our last name on the wall. We had the BEST experience with Marcus and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a Dj!

    I Love, Love, Love the energy that was at your Wedding and Reception. The Flower Guy set the tone from the beginning and we rocked out to the very end. Not my first LEO party, but by far the most fun and hype one. Thank you all for being so fun. As far as your Grandmother's dinner, we always give our all at every event, and that was just the right thing to do. She was sitting and had full hands how could we not offer to bring her food to her? It was the least we could do. Hopefully we see you at a friend or family wedding sometime soon.

    Would totally recommend to anyone looking for a DJ for their big day! Marcus nailed every detail for our ceremony and reception! Very flexible and personable. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    Innovative Blends Entertainment's reply:

    It was a Blessing to be part of your beautiful day. I saw a Perfect Love radiate from Tyler and yourself. The dance floor was lit all night. The Anniversary dance having 3 couples with more than 60 years of Love was amazing. Continue to be Blessed and I look forward to watching an amazing relationship between you all grow even more.

    Marcus was Everything!!

    Marcus was everything we were looking for in a wedding DJ and beyond! He reassured us prior to the wedding by having calls to discuss our game plan! During the wedding he kept us on our timeline, not sure what we would of done without him!! During my sisters maid of honor speech he even organized a way to play a clip of my dad speaking, truly unbelievable! The songs he played and the transitions were the talk amongst all our guests, they all thought he was amazing! When the photographer showed up she even said “Marcus is the best”! We truly had the best DJ for our special day! A million times thank you Marcus!
