What people have to say about Dakota:
“DJ Dakota made our wedding dreams come true! He set up our ceremony sound at a different location than the reception flawlessly. Once at the reception, he had guests on the dance floor immediately by playing great music that strung across generations. The dance floor was packed all night – with our guests chanting for more songs as the night came to an end. We had our wedding at my parents house so we did not have a typical venue day of coordinator. We told Dakota we were concerned about how we were going to keep the schedule moving along. Dakota made sure we stayed on our timeline and did so seamlessly. We feel so lucky to have had him as a part of our special day!! We could not recommend him more.”
-Julia Stickney
“To quote a post-wedding text, “DJ Dakota is the patron saint of dance parties!”
Booking Dakota was one of the very best decisions we made while wedding planning. He stuck with us through a venue change less than thirty days out, and was cool as a cucumber despite my stress. I always dreamed of dancing to good music at my wedding and Dakota made my dreams come true! I got more compliments on the playlist than on any other part of the party.”
-Noelle De Geus
“We had worked overseas, and so we were looking for someone who would be able to rock our international vibe and appreciate our very multicultural wedding. Dakota took it in stride, asked for details when he needed them, but wouldn’t was also very willing to do things on the fly when we needed to make changes in the moment. He provided a detailed questionnaire to make sure he had the information that he needed, and although he asked follow-up questions when necessary, he is very professional and was able to just get on with it without a lot of back-and-forth, which I appreciated as it made planning with him so simple. He was very responsive to email and on the phone when we needed him, showed up on time, and everyone raved about his music, even the bartenders were saying it was so much better than what is usually played at weddings! Highly recommended!”

“DJ Dakota did our wedding, and he crushed it! He’s super down to earth, kind, and professional- but knows how to have a good time. He took time to talk through the vibe of our wedding, talk through songs and even cut/edited a song to fit seamlessly for my favorite part to play to walk down the aisle to. I would absolutely hire him for our next celebration, and would highly recommend him!!! Thank you Dakota, you are incredible!”
