Rob and Dave were great to work with. They were very professional and prompt. They were organized in planning our event. Rob was great at creating an engaging environment and coordinating people in photos without intruding into the event. He was able to capture the important moments while remaining in the background. He also had a great sense of humor through such a long day. Dave was able to determine our wants and keep a great vibe through the entire reception. He was attentive to the type of music that we wanted and was great about trying to plan ahead so that we get all of our requests in.

We have had the pleasure of using DJ Holmes for all 3 of our daughter's weddings and we were thrilled with each experience. Dave keeps the evening on schedule and always plays the best music to get the party going! We would highly recommend Dave!!

Dave and his company, Event Entertainment, not only met but exceeded every single expectation we had. They were flexible with the changing environment with the pandemic, they met very specific requests that we had that made our day perfect, incorporated specific songs and music pieces we requested. I could go on and on. Dave and his team are worth every single penny and then some, and we can not recommend them any more highly!

DJ Brandon did an amazing job of keeping people on the dance floor throughout the entire wedding. No gimmicky sounds effects or air horns. Great at staying in the background, reading the crowd and making any requested adjustments. Throughout the planning process, he was great about making suggestions and taking down preferences to ensure the music met our taste as well as appealing to the crowd.

We highly recommend Dave! Dave met with us prior to the wedding and thoughtfully gave our reception the vibe we were looking for. He was very communicative, professional, and flexible with our requests. Dave is clearly a very experienced DJ, and will surely make your event just what you are looking for.

We were recommended Event Entertainment through our venue and it was a great experience. We used them for DJ and had the incredible Dave Holmes. He was super responsive and willing to cater to our various music needs. We had 2 edited songs and he fit them in seamlessly into the reception without a hitch! Dave was a pleasure to work with and kept the party going all night!

The Dj Dave did wonderful playing all the good music in order to keep my guest up dancing all night long. The videographer Alex and the photographer Carroll took the best shots and we absolutely loved the photos and video we got back from them. If you are looking for a videographer, photographer, & DJ look no farther they are great and you wont be disappointed!

We worked with Dave Holmes for our wedding and were so happy with his service! We found Event Entertainment through our preferred venue list and were glad he was familiar with our venue and had experience working there. He was very responsive to any questions we had and our song requests, including a couple songs that were not originally in his library. Dave did a great job at playing a good mix of music to keep everyone happy & on the dancefloor all night long. We also loved the surprise DVD that his team made for us. Would highly recommend

I highly recommend using them for you special day.

Dave was our DJ. He played all the songs we asked for and mixed in some oldies for the parents, and grandparents. He did a great job keeping the party going. He also surprised us with a DVD of some highlights of the wedding. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for quality on a budget.

Dave did a wonderful job as the DJ and emcee of our wedding. He was very familiar with the venue in Maryland and was available for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. He accepted our song requests and was very flexible on last minute changes. Dave helped make our day special and was everything we wanted in a DJ. We highly recommend Dave for your wedding!

I'm so glad that my wife and I chose Event Entertainment LLC for our wedding day. Dave was great to work and he was very easy to get in touch with. He was a great MC and DJ. The music selection was awesome! I would absolutely recommend Event Entertainment LLC for your wedding day or for any other event that requires an MC or DJ.

Dave was really easy to get in contact with and connected me to one of the DJs that work for him, DJ Brandon.
We had a 2 day-bi cultural wedding and DJ Brandon was able to accommodate our needs for both cultures and weddings! DJ Brandon is extremely warm, genuine and professional and was able to capture the exact atmosphere we were going for both days of our wedding. He has an extensive library of music ranging from throwbacks to contemporary music spanning several genres including South Asian music, which was needed for our wedding. Music he did not have he easily acquired and he played exactly what we asked for day of. On top of music, he was a wonderful MC during speeches to keep the evening moving a long efficiently and we really appreciated how much he checked in on us during throughout the evenings to make sure we had what we needed! Thank your for an amazing wedding DJ Brandon!

Event Entertainment was the best dj/event group I have ever worked with! We danced our entire wedding night and our dj kept our audience entertained and engaged the entire night! We also rented a photo booth from them. The props were endless and it was a hit for the night!I would highly recommend DJ Dave Holmes and his team to anyone looking!

My husband and I searched for a while to find the perfect DJ for our wedding. Dave was a perfect fit. The Venn Diagram of our wedding styles was LGBT (we are a same sex couple), top pop, Caribbean (my husband is from PR), classic dance hits, and a slight mix of sci-fi. Dave had experience in all of these styles (gay weddings, sci fi, latino, and a mix of regular top pop dance music). He balanced the music with the rotating events of the wedding (entering with some pensive Battlestar Galactica and exiting with some Star Wars), the cocktail hour, and the reception (opening with Conga and ending with Sweet Caroline). He blended our different styles into one seamless experience.
He sent us a website that linked to a music database where we could populate the songs that we found interesting as well as adding in a few random songs that he may not have in his portfolio (which was extensive). After finalizing our list, we had a pre-wedding meeting with Dave where we discussed our musical/audio expectations and finalized the plan for the night. Dave was amazingly helpful and gave us advice on which songs would be perfect (quiet, somber, exciting, dance, etc) for different parts of our night. It was a huge success and we were very pleased with Dave. Dave was there for us whenever we needed anything. He even surprised us with a video of the event as a gift to the couple. I would highly recommend Dave to our LGBT friends and family looking for a wedding DJ.

DJ Dave was the absolute best and top notch customer service. I was seriously behind the ball with planning who to get for a DJ and he told me to take my take and he'd reserve the date anyway for me while I made a decision. Super quick response...

Event Entertainment was the best company to hire for our DJ needs. Not only did we use them for music and entertainment, we used them for our photobooth too. Dave was amazing and super friendly. He met with us before the wedding to go over our songs and was even able to help us find the version of our first dance song that was incredibly hard to find. After the wedding was over, my husband and I received a package in the mail from Event Entertainment and it was a short video of our wedding/reception. I didn't even know that Dave had been recording any of it and it was best little video we have! You must hire Event Entertainment, you will not regret it!

We were fortunate enough to have Dave Holmes from Event Entertainment recommended to us for our wedding. We started by browsing the typical vendor list that the venue provides, but we are so thankful we came across Dave's name through a friend.
Dave met with us both prior to the wedding and eased all of our uncertainties about the flow of our reception. He was very professional, easy to talk to and responsive. He wanted to make sure he accommodated all of our needs and you could tell he wanted to get to know us and prepare for the day! The online portal allowed us to request songs, create a do not play list, etc. It also had lists of song ideas organized by different categories which was very helpful. Dave had all of our music, even one Christian song we weren't expecting he would have for our first dance! One of the best things about our experience was that it ran so smooth and we could tell Dave had a great way of making sure all of the vendors (photographer, videographer, floor manager etc.) were in the loop and on track. We didn't hire a day of coordinator for our reception, but we didn't need one. Dave took cues, was flexible and made sure all of our guests were having good time and that our vendors could get what they needed as well. Once the music started and guests warmed up, the dancing did not stop! We had so much fun and would definitely recommend Dj Dave Holmes!!

My husband and I hired Event Entertainment for our wedding in June of 2019. Needless to say, we were overwhelmed with what a great choice that was. Dave met us a couple weeks before the wedding to get to know exactly what we were hoping for on our wedding day in regards to DJ services. Dave was professional, knowledgeable, and very flexible with our varying requests. On the day of the wedding, Dave arrived early and had everything set up in a very timely manner. There was never an interruption in the music and festivities. The sound equipment was perfect. When it was time to start dancing, Dave matched the music to every mood, from perfect dinner music to the best dancing. Everyone danced the whole night. He even had us do a conga line and brought tambourines and sombreros, which were an overwhelming hit. (We had asked Dave to do this from the beginning). Everyone had so much fun and we highly recommend his services to all engaged couples looking for a reasonably priced and extremely professional DJ. Thanks again, Dave!

DJ Dave did an amazing job DJ’ing my wedding. He was super responsive throughout the planning period and made sure to meet with us prior to the wedding to review the plan. The music was awesome and he played all our must haves. He took guest requests and made sure to gage the dance floor and play music accordingly. The photography package he offered was also stellar. The photographer, Mr Flanders did an amazing job and captured beautiful shots.

We had Brandon for our wedding this past weekend. He was fantastic! He worked with us to plan out the music for the entire evening. The process was fun and very organized. People thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail music and the dance floor was full the whole evening! Brandon even went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening, bringing us drinks etc. We didn’t have to worry about a thing with Brandon there keeping us on track. We highly recommend

him!

Dave was a wonderful addition to our wedding. He met with us the week before the wedding to go over everything and pointed out a few helpful things we hadn't considered. At the event, he played the perfect setlist and helped make sure we stayed on schedule so the bride and I could focus on having fun. He even took some video! I highly recommend Dave and his company if you're looking for the perfect DJ :).

We used Event Entertainment for DJ services, Videography, Photo booth, and up lighting and everything was wonderful. Dave and his team were professional and responsive and overall wonderful to work with. We have gotten nothing but compliments on our reception from how great the music was to all the awesome props for the photo booth and the uniqueness of our Guest Book (photo strips from the photo booth). Dave as our DJ was wonderful and checked in through out to make sure we were keeping on track with the timeline for the reception. We sat down with him a couple days before the wedding to go over everything and he even confirmed he had the correct songs downloaded and edited so there were no issue or mix ups. I truly appreciated that effort as we had heard horror stories of the wrong songs being played. We were nervous about keeping people on the dance floor especially since we tend to listen to music not a lot of people listen to. Dave kept it as a good mix of what we requested and what he knew would keep people going and we couldn't be happier.
I would also like to mention we are very impressed to have received our final wedding video 3 weeks after the wedding. We honestly weren't expecting to see it until after Christmas. While we haven't watched it yet, if it's anything like the highlight video we received it's going to be incredible.

Dave was great to work with! We gave him some requests, but also left a lot of the music choices up to him and he nailed it! Our dance floor was full from start to finish which was just what we wanted! We never felt like we had to manage this vendor, the whole process was very seamless. Dave's wife also came to help with set up and took some video of the day which was such an unexpected surprise! We loved working with Dave!
