Among the many compliments guests gave us about our wedding, the most memorable were about Upbeat Entertainment! Guests of all ages were pleased with the great variety of music as well as Tim playing EVERY request. From our initial meeting, we knew we were in good hands with Tim and Janet. They not only coordinated our bridal party entrance perfectly, they helped us create the perfect timeline for all of our traditional wedding activities: daddy daughter dance, mother son dance, cake cutting, anniversay dance etc!
My only regret is how fast our wedding went, and that is because everything ran so smoothly! A big thank you to Upbeat Entertainment! Look no farther for your perfect event DJ!

For whatever reason, my (now) husband and I were so reluctant to hire a DJ. We thought we could do it ourselves--were we ever wrong. Luckily, we finally listened to our family and friends and met with Tim and Janet from Upbeat Entertainment. With Upbeat, you get more than a DJ, you also get an event coordinator. Tim, DJ, was GREAT! I never wanted to leave the dance floor because he kept playing great song after great song.
My friends even requested a song that was very new and not all that popular, because it was my favorite, and he was able to get it on the spot. I cannot say enough great things about Tim, but I really want to focus my review on Janet. She is what made hiring a DJ worth it. I'm not sure how other DJs operate, but Janet was present the entire ceremony, cocktail hour and reception to make sure things were going smoothly and on time.
She helped the bridesmaids time their entrances, introduced the bridal party (and triple checked to make sure all names were pronounced right), she got the speeches and first dances going at the right time. She even came to our rescue several times when we realized we forgot items (like a bag for the dollar or celebration, dance). Per my husband's family tradition, our evening ended with shots of Jameson for all. Janet made sure the bartenders had enough time to pour the shots before the last song and even brought them to the dance floor so she could pass them out. She was on top of her game all night and made sure things were running smoothly so that I didn't have to worry about it. USE UPBEAT ENTERTAINMENT! THEY ARE SO WORTH IT!
