Jenna the dj kept the party hopping all night! She literally was so great in ensuring the guests were kept in the loop the entire night. The couple loved x files and she was made aware and went out of her way to play the x files theme song as a surprise for them. Also, there was an inside joke with a cardboard cutout of Danny Devito. When they did a couples dance she even joked about how if someone didn’t have a partner they could dance with Danny. She was very personable and even helped clear plates in her free time. In addition, there was an issue where the hired officiant didn’t show up on time. I called Live Events as a back up and the owner Dennis told me he was an hour and a half away at another wedding but would come immediately. He rushed to our aid even when I told him the other officiant finally showed up. He showed up ready to help in any way he could. This company is top notch in all they do. Professional, polite, friendly, fun and ready to exceed your expectations. The only mistake you could make on your wedding day would be not hiring them.

I’ve been DJing weddings for 6 years, and it’s truly the work I enjoy most. My service is tailored to your taste, whether you want to curate every song or just share a few favorites and let me run with it. I know how to keep the dance floor packed, and I handle announcements naturally so your guests stay engaged and informed. I also work closely with couples on their timeline to make sure everything flows seamlessly with your other vendors. I’d love to connect and learn more about your wedding plans!

Awarded Best of Zola
Nicholas was the best wedding DJ service we could have ever asked for. Leading up to our wedding, Nicholas was very easy to work with and had very good communication. We were able to have all of our questions and concerns taken care of before our wedding. On the day of our wedding, Nicholas did a SUPERB job DJing! Our favorite part about Nicholas is that he does not simply just play a Spotify playlist and calls it good. Nicholas actually mixes songs together and he does an amazing job doing so. I had so many of my friends coming up to me on the dance floor saying, "HEY, DUDE!! THIS DJ IS AWESOME!" The DJing Nicholas does is amazing by itself, but Nicholas also does an amazing job MCing our wedding. He knows when music should be played, and how to keep everyone engaged at the wedding whether its him directing everyone's attention to the cake cutting or the first dance. There was one part at our wedding where we had our guests congregating at our venue before our outside ceremony started. This was something we never planned for before. We originally thought guest would take their seats outside. Nonetheless Nicholas realized what was going on and instead of guests talking with no music on, Nicholas started playing fitting wedding music for the guests to be greeted to in order to create a welcoming atmosphere. It sounds small but this was such a nice touch that he did. We didn't even have to tell him to do this. It really goes to show that even if your wedding plan doesn't go the way that you want, Nicholas will be able to adapt to any situation. The Ceremony itself was done perfectly. We had a handful of songs for him to play as well as some back up songs if some parts of the Ceremony took longer than expected. Nicholas was able to execute the Ceremony flawlessly. Nicholas is the whole package. He is very skilled at DJing and MCing, he is very kind and easy to work with, he provides a lot of his own equipment, and he does all of this at an amazing price. I feel like we should have been paying him 4x for what he charges. He is an amazing DJ and a gentleman. You can tell he really cares about all of his clients. You cannot go wrong with Nicholas!

Hi there! My name is Aaron and I am absolutely ecstatic that you found me! A lot of people ask what AGE means - well, my name is Aaron Griffing, and my goal is to elevate your wedding entertainment experience. In 2016, a friend asked if I would be her wedding DJ. I owned a few speakers and it sounded like fun so I said "Sure!" and that was beginning of something amazing. From the beginning, I made the decision that I would remain a one person operation. I am the founder, owner, and only wedding entertainer with AGE Entertainment.

When you meet your wedding vendors and your first thought is, “I could most definitely hang out with you,” that’s when you know you’re making a great call. Meeting with Aaron felt a lot like this. Not only did Aaron manage our wildly different music taste with ease, he also provided endless education on how to help the party feel like a party. I can personally attest that there was a point in the planning process where Aaron had to take the wheel, my brain was overcooked, and he handled our playlists and ideas perfectly. Aaron is the DJ to dance it out with you, to keep that odd relative at arms length, and always be there for you even after your day has ended. We are grateful to have continued to stay connected with Aaron via his professional accounts and would recommend his services any day.

When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth.
