I'll play music for you and your friends for up to 7 hours. I have overhead dance floor lighting and a speaker system that is scalable depending on guests/room size (from 100 to 450 people). I'll gladly play any/all requests from guests (unless the song is on your DO NOT PLAY list). I'll announce you and your bridal party with a custom introduction to 1 or more songs of your choice.
Sometimes I'll play a clip from a song for the parents, then another song for the bridal party, then a special song for the bride and groom (my favorite has been a couple that came in to the 1990's Chicago Bulls intro!) I'll provide you with a detailed sample timeline that you can customize to fit your reception needs.

Services
When you book your date with me, I'll share a "starter" reception timeline with you via Google Docs. You can start making it your own with your songs and your moments (cake cutting, anniversary dance, etc.) as soon as you'd like. I'll email you 2 months before your date to schedule a time for you to walk me through your ideas, go over your timeline, and talk music.
Make sure the bride has a pair of good dancing shoes waiting for her at the reception venue. Unless you have a sheet cake that can be cut ahead of time, don't wait until after dinner to cut the cake. Cut it soon after your entrance to give the caterers time to prep it for your guests. That way there won't be a big lull between dinner and dessert.

We had Adam DJ our wedding, and we would recommend him to anyone! He took the time to talk to us a few different times before the wedding to make sure he knew exactly what kind of music we wanted played during every event of our wedding. Adam made everything feel personal… he had our guests clap to our entrance song, played a song my grandpa requested so he could dance with me, and played games to keep kids entertained. We had several people comment about how great the music! Do yourself a favor and book Adam!

Adam was the DJ for our wedding and reception this past weekend and we could not be happier! He is very outgoing and personable. He had a zoom meeting with us a few weeks before the wedding to go over all of our ideas and offer suggestions where needed. He went above and beyond for us. Our entrance into the reception is still a topic of conversation! Adam knows how to read the crowd and made sure to keep the hype going for the entire reception. We would recommend him to anyone!

Where to begin?! From my first phone call with Adam I knew he would be perfect for the high energy reception we wanted. Adam has such an outgoing and contagious personality, he will get everyone at your event laughing. Adam truly went above and beyond for us. Our original wedding date was planned for the summer of 2020. Adam stuck by our side… throughout 3 date changes, and even a change of venue. When it comes to planning your big day, Adam will help you with your timeline and make your dream entrance into the reception a reality. He even videoed so many moments from our wedding that will

Do not hesitate! As the mother of the bride, I am so pleased with the professional performance of Adam Cruse as the DJ at our daughter’s wedding. Adam made sure the wedding reception was a success. From the correct pronunciation of all of the bridal party names to entertaining the children so that parents could eat in peace, to reading the crowd and playing music that kept everyone on the dance floor, Adam truly took the wedding entertainment to the next level. It is clear that Adam loves what he does and I believe that is what made the reception so magical. Truly the entertainment can make or

Adam, it is our honor to make this not only a recommendation (MAX STARS 11/10), but a HUGE Thank You. YOU ROCKED OUR WEDDING. Every Single person over the last few weeks, mentioned how exceptional you were. You keep the flow going, you took control and helped when you surely didn't have to. Your business approach is beyond professional. It was like… having a DJ, that also took pride in taking on extra roles to keep things moving. You never missed a beat, had everyone dancing and actually participating, which sometimes at a wedding is very hard to do. My takeaway from this whole journey is

I own a wedding venue and Adam was the DJ for one of our events this past Fall. I was floored by Adam's professionalism and ability to read the crowd. He had all able-bodied guests on their feet the entire evening! He has an attractive and clean DJ setup that isn't overly intrusive to the dancing space. Adam quickly made his way to the top of my recommendation list and I can guarantee you won't be disappointed in booking him for your event!

Adam is the best DJ out there right now! He created a fun and joyful mood for our son's entire wedding reception this past Saturday. He was professional and organized introducing the wedding party, providing… announcements throughout the night, leading the special dances with appropriate musical choices and including the children in games and songs. Very memorable night! Highly recommend. Do not delay in scheduling him for your next event!

We booked Adam for our wedding and couldn't be more thrilled with his outstanding performance! He was by FAR the MOST organized person we worked with throughout our whole wedding planning. He even meet with us via video and we worked on a google doc together to get a timeline down and songs ready. This worked out perfectly because we could work at it on our own time and drop notes for each other. When the day came, he went above and beyond! His outdoor work was impeccable with a mic and songs being quietly played in the background. When the time for the reception came, he had everything under control

Best DJ ever!! We are SO thankful we went with Adam to DJ our wedding. From even before the wedding, he was great and efficient with communication. He provided a song outline to help guide us in choosing our music and had a meeting with us a couple weeks before the wedding to go through all the details - both of which were super helpful. On our wedding day, Adam was amazing! He did a great job with music for the ceremony, everything was flawless. During the cocktail hour he had great music selections and even played games with the kids to give parents a break..it was so neat and special! For the

Adam is honestly the best at what he does. He was so easy to work with and he made sure check in on us frequently, that the day was running exactly how we wanted and imagined it, and all our guests were having an exceptional time. I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and I would recommend him a million times over. Thank you so much! Our day was perfect because of you! ❤️

Adam DJed my sister's wedding a couple months ago and did an absolutely amazing job. He is genuine, entertaining, and very funny. As the maid of honor, I appreciated how well he attended to the desires of the bride and groom. I've seen DJs at other weddings that did not listen to what the bride and groom wanted and ended up doing their own thing. Adam was a great host while also letting the spirit of the couple shine through. I would recommend him to anyone who's looking for a DJ- and even to those who are considering not having a DJ- he is just that good!!! Thanks Adam for making

Having Adam DJ was one of the best choices we made in our wedding planning! We loved his style and finesse in managing the crowd. He has a unique blend of calm and confidence that both we are our guests really appreciated.
He was prepared, flexible, and really professional. He brought in his expertise but not his own agenda (like some wedding DJs). Adam took the time to walk us through his role at the reception, asking great questions we hadn't considered. We loved working with him recommend him highly! He really helped make our wedding a great party!
