Incredible Wedding DJ

Our DJ Mike Kannal did an amazing job at our wedding ceremony and reception! We had a meeting before to ensure song selections and coordinate the timing of the music and schedules throughout the night. He was extremely professional and fun, kept the night moving along, and ensured the dance floor was always packed! Could not recommend a better DJ.

Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with Tony from Buckeye Entertainment! From our first meeting to the wedding day, Tony was very professional and clearly had a lot of experience doing weddings. He played all of our selections throughout the day, and offered suggestions if we were unsure of what kind of music to select. Something I didn’t know before wedding planning is how crucial a DJ is for keeping everything running on schedule, and Tony did it with ease! Above all else, Tony made sure we had a full dance floor throughout the night! We ended up choosing a lot of different music from different decades/genres, but he made sure everything flowed smoothly. I was worried about picking the right dance music, but Tony’s experience really helped, as he chose a lot of crowd-pleasers to mix in with our requested songs. Seriously cannot recommend Buckeye Entertainment enough!

Detail Oriented

We worked with Tony though Buckeye Entertainment My wife and I are very detail oriented, and Tony was able to match our energy flawlessly. Tony was super flexible in changing some dance songs up so my wife and I could dance later in the evening since we didn't get to the dance floor early on. He was the best and your should definitely hire him. Tony also was super flexible working with our wedding coordinator. We opted for an outdoor ceremony and he was there hours before most of the other ceremony vendors. We greatly appreciate his effort to make our day perfect.
