I had never been to any event where so many people were on the dance floor from the beginning of the reception until the end of the night. They did not want to stop! The music mix was great and the entire event ran very smoothly. I would highly recommend Dave Holmes and Event Entertainment to anyone.

Dave,
Thank you so much for keeping our guests dancing all afternoon! You were a wonderful DJ and we felt blessed to have you share in our special day. What a lovely surprise getting to see a video of our wedding especially since it's the only video we have to remember the day by since our camera failed :( We have only heard great things from our guests about you! John and I can't thank you enough!

This was the only vendor from our wedding that we are 100% satisfied with. They were helpful throughout the planning process, and Dave did a wonderful job on the day of making appropriate selections for our crowd.
We had a mix of latin, oldies, and pop- an eclectic mix, but he played it seamlessly and everyone had an amazing time! People were on the dance floor the whole night whether or not we were with them.
Thank you so much Dave and Event Entertainment!

Our reception was DJ'd by Dave Holmes of Event Entertainment and he was wonderful! Kept everyone dancing all night and we received a lot of compliments about the music. Dave was very easy to communicate with and was great about accommodating our suggestions and requests. I'm so glad that we used him and his company!

My husband and I was really impressed with how flexible our Dj company was. We are a militry family and our wedding ploans had to be changed by the day. Our Dj was very attentive and extremely flexible with not only our schedule but our changing needs. Our DJ was very lively and forunatelt kept me (the bride) on track our big day. He was really what kept our day flowing smoothly. We would absolutely use this service again.

From my husband, who in his delight with DJ Mike decided to write the review himself:
Although I was in charge of finding the “DJ”, my wife and I interviewed with several different people and companies. Then we came across Event Entertainment, who were recommended by another DJ that was booked on our weekend. I left a voicemail for Dave Holmes and he promptly returned my call. I had requested a meeting to see if they would be suitable for our event. We met with DJ Mike and we quickly realized he would be the perfect fit. Out of all the meetings we had, he was the only one that listened to what we wanted-simple and elegant.
On the day of the wedding, DJ Mike was truly outstanding. The 2941 Restaurant was our venue. Security at the General Dynamics Building is crazy. As much as they delayed DJ Mike, he didn’t miss a beat. He had everything setup on time outside on the terrace and in the reception area. Thanks to DJ Mike, our guess didn’t even realize the ceremony was late because of a minor glitch on our part. From the introductions, to the first dance, all the way to the last dance, DJ Mike kept the party going.
This is what really stood out for us when we reflect on that night. DJ Mike is a true professional. To us, a true professional listens to what you have to say, makes great suggestions when asked and delivers when it counts. During dinner, he kept the music simple and elegant. DJ Mike let me know when songs were requested that were not appropriate. One of the things that we thought were amazing was fact that he always had people dancing. We believe he was the reason that we were able to see everyone (100% of our guests) dance.
Overall, our experience with Dave and DJ Mike was truly outstanding and refreshing in an area (D.C.) were customer service is not always excellent. Both were very helpful and accommodating. DJ Mike made our event. We would use their service again in a heartbeat.

Dario was the perfect DJ for us! We had a mix of American, Latin and European guests, young & old--everybody danced the entire night! Dario's well planned & well timed music made it unnecessary to even make a request. We would recommend him 100%

Event Entertainment was a pleasure to work with. DJ Phil was absolutely AMAZING! I would highly recommend him to any bride looking for a DJ that knows how to read the crowd and how to have a good time. We had family members at our wedding dancing the entire night that I have never seen get up and dance before!! DJ Phil made our wedding that much more special and we could not have been happier with his help. THANK YOU EVENT ENTERTAINMENT!!

Dave Holmes of Event Entertainment was our DJ for our wedding and he was AMAZING!! He had people that I never expected to get out of their chairs up and dancing our entire wedding! He listens to you, asks you questions to get know you and your fiance, so that he can cater to the overall feel of you as a couple and your wedding. He even made a little video of our day that he put together that we were able to share with our family and friends! We couldn't be happier with Dave and we HIGHLY recommend him as the DJ for your wedding!

I had a blast at my wedding and have Phil to thank. He was absolutley a wonderful DJ! He was personable, great energy he had my guest tearing up the dance floor. I told him I wanted to party and have a good time he made sure that happened. I would totally use him for all my future events. Great job Phil, and a big thank you.

Phil was our DJ for our wedding and he was GREAT! The week prior to the wedding, I was making changes to our song list up until the night before the wedding and he was very flexible about it. He was easy to get in touch with through email and cell phone. The day of the event was awesome, everyone was out on the dance floor for the whole night. He kept the party going, played tasteful mix of music, and was a huge hit. He was having so much fun that he played at out after party until 2am, which was not apart of our contract. We had so much fun and he really made the night wonderful! We would recommend him to our friends and family and would use him again.

Event Entertainment really did a fantastic job at our wedding! We had very little songs that we had on the must play list. Our only direction to Dave was to make sure that everyone was dancing and having a good time. Well from the moment he started playing, everyone (and I mean everyone) was dancing all night long! This proves that Dave truly is a professional! Without much direction he was able to play the PERFECT songs.
I also believe that Event Entertainment is very reasonably priced compared to other DJs!
I would highly recommend Dave and Event Entertainment for an unforgettable wedding!

Dj Phil was our DJ for our Novemeber 20th Wedding in DC at St. Francis Hall, We couldn't have asked for a better day or DJ, he did exactly what we asked and provided the right mood for our guests. Thanks Phil for the CD that kept the party going after our formal wedding was done.
We will gladly suggest your services to our friends that are going to be celebrating as we did.
Best Wishes, Andriy and Jessica Burshtynskyy

Phil was our DJ he was the right mix of low key without looking like he was lifeless. He played all of the music that we discussed, and some songs that fit into what we would like and that we had not thought to incorporate into our wedding. The notes he took for our initial consult were reviewed and some updated when we sat down 2 weeks before the wedding. At his suggestion we reviewed them to go over some of the names and the whole plan for the reception. The intros and all of the special dances were handled perfectly. When it came time after dinner for the dancing and fun to begin, he noticed the younger guests getting restless and started things off with the right music, and once the older members of the family left, Phil cranked up the music and we had a great party. Our reception was supposed to end at 11, but it didn't finally wrap up till 1am. Even our neighbors that were not part of the wedding were out celebrating with us, overall it was the best wedding I and my family have ever been a part of, we cant give Phil enough praise for the job he did for our wedding. He far exceeded our expectations.
Thanks Again Phil,
Eric and Lauren

I was a little nervous at first but DJ Johnny Torres was AMAZING. He kept the dance floor packed all night long. My husband's family is latin so we had Johnny play both Latin and American music. It was a PERFECT combonation. He was very flexible too! I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone.

DJ Johnny was amazing! The entire process was soo easy. The entire night went smoothly. We only had to discuss things with him one time. It was soo pain free. The night rolled exactly as we had planned. He played everything exactly to our specifications. Very nice to do business with. Very accomodating! If you need a bi-lingual DJ, you can't go wrong with DJ Johnny. Thanks Johnny! The night was perfect!

We had Steve and M.J. as our DJ's and they were great. We had asked for a low key not too interactive but not dead DJ and that is what we got. They made sure everything was exactly as I wanted it, and that our night was a full success.
