    10/10 would recommend Tyson/Marquee Events!

    Tyson with Marquee Events was so accommodating throughout our entire wedding planning experience. He was so easy to talk to, helpful and he truly wanted to bring our vision to life. An emcee and music are key components of your guests' experience and vital to moving your wedding night along. We trusted Tyson completely with those responsibilities. He was professional, warm, positive and a ton of fun! My husband and I, along with our family and friends, thoroughly enjoyed the entire reception, thanks to Tyson/Marquee Events. I also need to mention is modern, chic set up. Fit for any venue, Tyson ensures his set up isn't an eye sore, which I really appreciated!

    Great party!!

    Tyson was so wonderful; from the initial meeting to wedding day, he paid close attention to detail and made sure to answer any of our questions thoroughly. His guidance was certainly appreciated when it came to choosing songs for our wedding. Tyson did our ceremony sound, as well as our reception. We added cold sparklers to our package and they were quite the surprise for our guests. His set up is exquisite and perfect for any location! We still receive compliments on how smoothly our ceremony flowed into cocktail hour then the reception, and how FUN our day was. Tyson absolutely knocked it out of the park and we cannot thank him enough for making our day a wonderful memory for not only us, but everyone that attended. We would absolutely book Tyson again, and recommend him to anyone who wants their wedding to be fun for people of all ages!

    Marquee Events for our Spanish wedding

    Tyson was incredible. He was professional in a way a lot of other DJs we met didn’t seem to be. I also loved that he is still a small company and the way he met with us and followed up frequently made us feel like we were important and that he was as excited for our wedding as we were. We also really appreciated his guidance regarding song choices and reception flow. He was able to blend my and my husband’s styles (I’m midwestern and my husband is Venezuelan) seamlessly and all our guests from around the country and world had only good things to say. We were also able to add in ceremony sound, and Tyson set up outside for our October wedding in Amana. It really was beautiful. Well worth the investment!

    Marquee Events

    Tyson was very easy to work with. He was able to set up our audio for our ceremony exactly how we wanted it to be. It was important for us to get to know our vendors and he made effortless. My husband and I enjoyed our DJ and would recommend him to all couples. His set up is absolutely beautiful and looked amazing in photos as well!

    Easy and SO enjoyable to work with!!!

    Working with Tyson made the process of finding/planning our music so easy!! He was so accommodating and made the day perfect for us! One of my main things I wanted on our big day was to have a packed dance floor and Tyson delivered just that. The floor was packed once the first song began until the last. We can not thank him enough for that!!

    Best wedding DJ

    Tyson made our wedding dreams come true. He was so energetic, professional, and fun to work with. He kept the crowd going all night long! He was responsive during the whole process and exceeded our expectations. We cannot recommend him enough!

    Classy, luxe, timeless.

    From the get-go, we knew Marquee Events was a perfect fit. Tyson jumped on a Zoom call with us almost immediately after our inquiry to get an idea of the vision we had for our wedding and reception. The party element was super important to us, so we knew we needed to book someone who would make sure the night lived up to the hype we created in our minds.

    Tyson did just that and then some. I cannot emphasize how much he absolutely KILLED IT! We went all out for our wedding — cold spark machines, CO2 cyro jets, and a "dancing on the clouds" production for our first dance. To this day (months later), we still get compliments from friends and family of all ages and music tastes, on how amazing our DJ was and our wedding was the best they've ever been to. From hyping up the crowd during our grand entrance with a bridal party roast, to turning our dance floor into a mini music fest with all the amazing light effects and enhancements (it genuinely felt like a rave)... Tyson was an absolute force to be reckoned with. He kept our dance floor packed with our guests on their feet all night long. Not to mention, he gave my husband and I the opportunity to DJ a full song towards the end of the night — how cool is that?!?

    Everything Tyson delivered was EXACTLY what we were going for, but know he is completely customizable and experienced in whatever atmosphere you're envisioning. He is professional, courteous, efficient and thorough, and all in all a damn good time.

    Do not think to look elsewhere — book with Marquee Events and this aspect of your day will be phenomenal!

    Marquee Events's reply:

    Alexis, THANK YOU for this amazing review! I knew your celebration would be extra special from our first conversation...and it was and more. You and Zach are forever in the Marquee Events Hall of Fame for the epic party you hosted!

    Exactly what we wanted

    Tyson is so talented at what he does and gave us the best experience at our wedding. He met with us via zoom and in person to go over details to make sure everything turned out the way we wanted. He is very detail oriented so everything turned out perfect!

    Incredible. The best value vendor we had.

    Tyson was first class on every front. Communication, production, understanding and execution. Tyson gets it. He brings the energy and party, while still keeping it centered around you. He has a great balance of getting people going and having fun, but also not taking away from the couple. He was by far the best vendor we signed and would do it again.

    Upscale & fun DJ

    Working with Tyson was great. He was super flexible and was easy to meet with via FaceTime or to get ahold of by text or email as we were planning our wedding from out of state. We were looking for someone that had upscale equipment that also wouldn’t stick out like a sore thumb. The ceremony sound, music, timing was perfect. He played great music the whole night, combining the likes of both the bride and the groom. It was such a fun and memorable after party with a huge thanks to Tyson!

    Book Tyson with Marquee Events!

    I can't recommend Tyson with Marquee Events enough! His good reviews and classy, clean set up are what sold me initially to reach out to him. From beginning to end, Tyson was super easy to work with, reliable, and professional. Our wedding was at Harpors Vineyard, his first time at the venue and he pulled everything off flawless from the announcements, songs, lighting, and those sparklers (a must add!). Our family, friends, and vendors were raving about him all night. His style and setup fit so well with Harpors in keeping with the classy and elegant look. You will get nothing but the best service when working with Tyson.

    Exceptional DJ

    We met Tyson at the Des Moines bridal show. I fell in love with his sleek, classy, white set up and sealed the deal with his cold sparks. He went out of his way to meet with my venue coordinator to make sure I could use the cold sparks. Tyson is very professional, responsive to all inquiries throughout the process, and has an easy to use app to collaborate. Day of he was at the venue early setting up and checking in. His set up EXCEEDED my expectations. The lights he used throughout the venue were the addition I didn't know I needed. Tyson kept the dance floor packed throughout the evening with a playlist that is still being raved about! If you want an epic party Marquee Events is you DJ!

    Marquee Events's reply:

    Thanks for your review Brandi! From the bridal show to your last dance, it was so nice to work with you and Alex. It was an honor to help create some of the memories of your wedding celebration. All the best!

    An amazing wedding DJ! Highly recommend!

    Tyson was so easy to work with! We love the fact that he DJ’ed in college and came back to the business later in life. We knew he had the experience and skills to make our day perfect. He met with us multiple times before our wedding to plan out our day. On the day, he was there early to set up and didn’t bother me or my husband (which was much appreciated that morning!) and problem-solved throughout the day. He incorporated all of our wants during the reception from our anniversary dance to my husband’s fraternity sweetheart song. We also surprised our guests with our college mascot and he made the best announcement using our school fight song. The dance floor was bumping all night long! An amazing experience!

    Marquee Events's reply:

    Thank you Carlye! Your day had amazing emotion and your crowd was so energized and ready to celebrate you and Caleb. They could have danced until dawn. Thanks for trusting me with your big day!

    Can't Speak Highly Enough

    I was completely blown away by the incredible service provided by Tyson with Marquee Events. Not only was the dance floor packed all night long, but the set up, preparation, and service was better than anything we could've imagined. It felt like we were his only clients with how much time and energy he spent making sure we felt good going into our day. Marquee Events is luxury set up AND luxury service, I can't recommend Tyson enough!

    Megan - You and Tanner were amazing to work with and your reception was so glamorous! It was an honor to be part of your wedding team. Your grand entrance was also one of the most epic I've ever seen!

    Amazing experience--highly recommend!

    We absolutely loved working with Tyson for our wedding! He was extremely organized, professional, and attentive to every detail. He worked with our venue and design company to make sure the dance floor and speakers were set up perfectly. His equipment is super nice and aesthetically pleasing, and he nailed the lighting. As for the music, the dance floor was packed the entire night--we couldn't ask for anything more! We felt completely at ease knowing Tyson was handling the music and lighting, and he did not let us down whatsoever. He really thought of everything and the night went so smoothly. All in all, Tyson helped make our wedding so much fun!! Cannot recommend Marquee Events enough for weddings in the Des Moines area.

    Thank you for the amazing review Lainey! Your wedding was luxury from start to finish and was so much fun. You and Alex have tons of people that adore you! All the best, Tyson

    Doesn’t get any better than Tyson

    Tyson is the gold standard in the Des Moines area for DJs. He is professional, efficient and really cares about your wedding. From start to finish he was unbelievable. He kept us organized with all we had to do. It was also sad it had to end. He’s perfect.

    10 stars out of an available 5 stars

    If I could give 10 stars I would. Very personable, very caring, communication was top notch, and day of Marquee made everything run smoothly. Awesome booth/setup. So rich looking. The dance floor was never even close to empty. Great song selection. We can't thank Marquee enough. Would hire Marquee again in a second.

    The Perfect DJ

    Tyson was an awesome fit out our wedding. We originally thought we were going to go without a DJ since we had a small wedding (20 people total) But I'm so glad we decided to go for it. Music makes or breaks the vibe of the whole event. And Tyson made every moment even that more magical and fun. Not to mention how he knew exactly what to play to get our family moving and dancing all night long! His set up was completely professional and even included lights to help set the mood even further. Look no further for a DJ, Tyson is the man for the job. Thank you Tyson for being a part of our big day :)

    Above and Beyond

    I can’t imagine there’s a better option for DJs than Tyson/Marquee Events. Tyson was so attentive and professional. He genuinely cared to make our day perfect and special. His forethought and planning, as well as his communication with our other vendors, made the day of the wedding stress free and seamless. We also loved his greenery wall - we got so many compliments from guests on it and it made for a great photo op for guests!

    Marquee Events's reply:

    Hannah, you're the best! Thanks for your review and for trusting me with your celebration. It was so high class from start to finish!
