Wedding DJ at Arlington

We recently had the pleasure of working with Ron at Jackson Manor in Arlington, and he was absolutely incredible! As an Indian American couple, we wanted a mix of Bollywood and American music to keep all of our guests happy, and Ron nailed it perfectly. He blended both styles seamlessly, and the dance floor stayed lively all night.

All of the mic, speakers, and technical setup went flawlessly, which made the wedding day stress-free and smooth.

We couldn’t recommend him enough to anyone looking for a DJ who brings energy, inclusivity, and a personal touch to their big day.

Wonderful DJ

Ives Audio provided the audio and DJ services at my friend’s wedding, so I knew he was personable and could put together a fun playlist and could get people on the dance floor. Having Ronnal as my DJ for my own wedding was an easy decision! Working with Ronnal was great, he’s very thorough, helpful, and has an upbeat and fun personality.

Ronnie was absolutely amazing! He never missed a beat and played everything we wanted! Plus he was funny and easy to talk to which is always a plus!

So glad Ron was part of our day!

We booked Ives through an all inclusive package at Jackson Manor Events and I am so glad he was part of our wedding. As an anxious bride I didn't have to worry about anything, he knew exactly what to do and when, and was just overall such a kind person! We barely gave him any dancing songs so he had free reign and it was amazing people were dancing all evening.

Ron's the Man and Absolute stellar!

The moment we booked with Ron he sent us out a very detailed and thorough questionnaire. A few months before the ceremony took place he took the time to hop on a phone call with us to discuss a few tricky things we had wanted to add in and was patient and reassuring about it all. On the wedding day he was flexible and prompt with picking the right songs on the dancefloor. He doesn't know but we had our own little dance party on the street taking photos! As the MC voice of the wedding he had a presence that was a fantastic touch. We are so happy with the product Ron gave us for our wedding day and the extra little bits of magic to help elevate it into a truly wonderful day!

Great service

We had an amazing experience with Ives Audio. Ives was very responsive with all of the planning, questionnaire and timeline and he did an incredible job. Our timeline was perfectly followed as well as all the song requests. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Best wedding DJ and photobooth out there!

My wife and I have seen Ronnal perform a number of times at Sam's tavern in Seattle and he always has the place buzzing. We knew he would be a great DJ for our wedding and the fact that he's an awesome MC and also provided a photo booth made things that much easier! I would (and have) recommended him to friends and I know everyone who attended can speak to his skills.

Incredible DJ/MC

Ron is truly an incredible DJ and MC. He was super easy to work with, listened to our needs, was flexible, and gave us exactly what we were looking for in a DJ/MC. He created a positive vibe and built up our guests energy. Everyone was cheering and dancing, having a great time. We used their photo booth service as well and had no regrets! The quality was great and the personalized photo strip design was on point. We would highly recommend this dynamic duo to anyone!

They were Amazing!

We had a wonderful experience with Ives audio at our wedding. I was in my friends wedding last year and she had them at hers and I loved them so much that I hired them for our wedding about a year later. We had them for our dj and photo booth and they were both fantastic! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I definitely recommend them for any special event!

Easy, personal, so much fun.

Ives Audio was so much fun and so easy going for our wedding. In the planning process Ronnal was very responsive and flexible. We are particular with our music and he accepted our playlists for various parts of the nights - and he balanced them with his own music too which made for a personalized night with his skill mixed in. He emcee'd for us, provided sound for our ceremony, and we did the photobooth + guestbook which was a BLAST! Ronnal and his wife are also just so kind and were a joy to work with. Definitely recommend!

Great event DJ

We had the pleasure of having Ives Audio DJ our wedding this past weekend. And I have to say Ronnal and his wife were more amazing than I could have ever hoped for. They were professional, down to earth and so flexible. I decided to do a photo booth last minute, which was not an issue for him and his wife and everybody loved it! He even gave me an electronic copy of all the pics, which was so nice to look through after the wedding. Ronnal had so much character on the mic which was a bonus and helped me get back on schedule when we were very behind in our events. The music was on point and definitely made for an unforgettable night. Thank you Ronnal for such a great experience!

Best Wedding DJ I’m the PNW

Ives Audio exceeded our expectations for our backyard wedding reception. His questionnaire before really helps to get an idea of the vibe of party you are wanting, and flow of the evening. So kind, easy going, and communicative. Thank you for catering to grandparents, adults, and dancing queens!

Best DJ and photobooth ever.

Dj ives did an amazing job at our wedding with he music, announcing speeches and MCing. He had such a great sense of humor and professionalism!!
He was open to day of changes and was super chill and flexible. We highly recommend. Also, we hired him and his wife for a photo booth and they also did an incredible job!!!:) I loved that we could create a Spotify playlist for dancing, releasing tables and before:)

excellent experience

Ronnal and Eva were so wonderful to work with. They made sure I had provided all the info they needed even when I wasn't responsive the first few times to their messages - which just proved to me that I was in good hands! They also dealt with my last minute changes to a few songs with ease. I can't recommend them enough.

DJ, MC Extraordinaire

I couldn't have asked for an easier experience. The pre-wedding questionnaire he gave us allowed us to provide as specific or as general song choices as we wanted. Day of the wedding Ronnal was there as soon as the venue opened to set up. The music and mixing was amazing and on top of all that, he acted as MC for the evening too and made the evening run smoothly.

Amazing experience

Everyone at our wedding thoroughly enjoyed everything that they provided. They all especially enjoyed the photo booth and so did my wife and I. We chose to go with the option to get the photo book and was amazed how it turned out. We got to see all the pictures everyone took as well as the messages that were left in the photo book. Would definitely chose them for future events.

Wedding photo booth

Ives Audio was great to work, and very accommodating to what we were looking for. They even adjusted our time frame at the last minute. The photographer was very friendly and upbeat, even after he set up in the pouring rain! He was very willing to move his equipment around to accommodate larger group photos, and guests were able to take home a lot of fun pictures as a souvenir from the wedding. We would highly recommend Ives Audio!

Ives did an excellent job! The photo booth at our wedding was well run, fun, and friendly. All the guests commented on what great time they had taking pictures. The owners are a dream to work with. 14/10!

Ronnal and team were amazing! He DJ'd our wedding reception at our home on Whidbey Island. Music was amazing - everyone had a great time. I would definitely hire Ronnal again for a similar event, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone in the area looking for an event DJ.

I was fortunate enough to meet Ronnal in the local music scene when we was running sound and DJ-ing for live music venues. When my wife and I got married I asked if he would consider being the DJ at our wedding. He agreed and out of every detail and vendor we went with, having Ronnal DJ our wedding was the best decision we made. That was in 2010 and friends still refer to that night as "the best music" they've danced to at a wedding. And multiple friends asked to reach out to Ronnal for their upcoming weddings. He's got impeccable taste in music and timing/mood (always best to give personal preferences/playlist IMO) Additionally, he's very thoughtful with his time on the mic--no wannabe standup comedian or fake hype-man here, Ronnal is the real deal. And just in case his music and professionalism wasn't enough, he's an absolute joy to be around and will leave you with a smile on your face.

Ives Audio, aka DJ buttnaked was amazing. I’ve been to two weddings (one of them being my own) with DJ Buttnaked and he was amazing. Very easy to work with and played a perfect mix of what we wanted and what he knew would bring the party.

Ronnal is an amazing DJ. We hired him for two holiday parties and had the best time. He was really responsive when setting up the event and relying information to the venue. He was also very professional and played music that everyone liked without making it dull. We'd love to hire him again someday if we change venues since the one we've been using doesn't allowed DJs.

He did a great job at our wedding, especially considering how picky we can be about our music. He communicated well with us as well as the organizer to make sure his timing was correct and was just an all around nice person to work with.

Great Time!! I have used Ives Audio for different occasions including my own wedding, Christmas parties for work as well as company Picnics. I have referred him to several people for their weddings and events and everyone has been thrilled with his professionalism, and how personable Ronnal is. I have already booked him for my next summer picnic and our 2018 Holiday event. IF I could give him 10 stars I would!!

You have found your DJ/MC!

We could not have had such a fun wedding without Ron. He's not just a DJ, but literally the master of the day/night. He had a really thorough list of questions prior to our wedding, got our dance music vibe SPOT ON, and was making his own remixes throughout the night. We did not leave the dance floor all night. Ron came super early to set up to make sure everything was smooth for the ceremony and reception and he even stayed after his 6 hours were up. Brought so much energy, all of our guests were complimenting Ron all night.

10000% recommend. He is worth every penny!

Good deal with photobooth

We chose Ives Audio because it was the best deal in the lynnwood area that also provided a photobooth. Ronnal gave us a bit of a discount which was nice too. We were under the impression that his wife Ava would run the photobooth, not just set it up. It would’ve been nice to have someone press the button for my guests and let them know the countdown. I didn’t realize this until the very end and it was too late to let them know. They do give you a copy of your guests photos which was nice. We had some feedback during the ceremony (walking down the aisle and when the officiant was speaking) so I wished those kinks we worked out ahead of time but it wasn’t that bad. Overall, very satisfied with Ives Audio.
