About

On WeddingWire since 2018

Based in Knoxville, TN, with a goal to make your dreams of a fun and memorable wedding come true -through thoughtful and inspired setups featuring professional lighting and equipment- Monolith Entertainment strives to pull your guests in and keep them dancing! With this and a focus on building and maintaining an incredible DJ and MC team, be confident your friends, family, and co-workers will have the best time possible!

Monolith Entertainment has only ever used pro equipment (no RadioShack DJ’s here), and all pieces of the setups and placement are thoughtfully considered (not just thrown together), with cables and other unsightly parts tucked away and/or taped down to match the pristine look of your wedding and avoid hazards. Backup equipment is always on hand for vital equipment to make sure nothing brings the wedding to a halt, and any issues that may arise are handled quickly without disrupting the whole evening.

Monolith DJ’s, including myself, truly enjoy and understand today’s music and that of our core couples, but we also love the classics. I keep our music catalog up to date and will fulfill every request from our couples made in advance. As well, you’ll find that I am attentive and available 24/7 to all who hire Monolith Entertainment.

Ultimately, you want to fill at ease with your entertainment choice from the time you book until the last song is played. You want an entertainment provider that meets your specific needs, meets your expectations of fun and professionalism, and works with your budget. I am always working to ensure that will continue to be said about Monolith Entertainment.



Services Offered

We offer ceremony and reception entertainment services. Each reception comes with 4 hourse of DJ entertainment, but you can always add more hours if you need. The ceremony service is available with microhpones and, if it's in a separate area from the reception, portable sound and DJ equipment. I, the owner and head DJ, will consult with couples to discuss what they would like to have on their wedding day. When you book, you'll receive in depth planning forms to formulate a plan for an overall agenda and timeline of events to help ensure the night goes smoothly. Nearlyweds may choose the music genres they like best for their ceremony and reception, create a Must Play and Do-Not-Play list, as well as dictate any announcements they'll need and notes on key parts of the wedding. We also provide additional ambient uplighting, stage lighting, projector and screen services, and Magic Mirror Photo Booth rental services for couples. Monolith Entertainment has access to and the range to play EVERY genre of music.

So easy to work with!

Lance was our DJ for our November 12th wedding at Parkside Resort and he was wonderful!! We first met with him about a year out from our wedding and we instantly meshed well. We didn’t want a typical “cheesy” DJ and wanted someone who would understand our unique style, and Lance delivered! He was very communicative throughout the process and listened to all of our requests. He had to deal with our unique venue of having 2 levels with the ceremony space being converted to the dance floor and he pulled it all off seamlessly by providing music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. He was very personable, down to earth, and kept the party going! I would highly recommend Lance for anyone planning a wedding!

Easy to work with

We chose the Clara package + 1 hour. We had a pretty low-key reception, but he kept dancers on the floor all night and really nailed the vibe! As a military family, many aspects of wedding planning were difficult from overseas, but Lance was very understanding and made this part easy. Both my day of coordinator and I were very grateful for his planning sheet which kept the night very organized and on schedule.

Amazing DJ - even worth it for a 20 person wedding!

We had a 2020 wedding which eventually happened in 2022, finally. Lance was hired the entire time and was so awesome to work with! He was extremely flexible and even worked with us when we downscaled our event…he made it work in our cabin and everyone raved about how awesome the DJ was and had a blast! Very professional and awesome in every way! Would highly recommend!
