Update: It sounds like NW Event Sound is under new management, and given the experience from the couples who got married after us, I would caution against hiring them.

Pete and team kept the party going at our reception until midnight! Everyone had a blast on the dance floor.
In addition to that, his pricing is very affordable, he was very responsive throughout the planning process amidst all of the COVID uncertainty, and even accommodated our request to provide karaoke at the reception, which was a huge hit. Thank you, Pete!

Pete was very easy to work with. He was very quick to responding to all the questions I had, he was helpful with the planning process, very easy to communicate, and he was very accommodating to our situation. He overall made sure that everything went smoothly on the wedding day. Would highly recommend working with Pete!

We hired Pete with NW Event Sound in 2020, just before the pandemic. He was fantastic at communicating with us throughout our 2 postponements. He also performed his MC duties wonderfully. Unfortunately, I would not recommend this company after our entire experience because we got passed off to another DJ for the second half of our event.

Less than a month before our wedding day we became aware that Pete would not be the only DJ and he would be joined by someone named DJ Erwin. We spoke to Pete on the phone and he explained that he would take care of all the MC work and once the open dance party started DJ Erwin would take over. We had our final details meeting over zoom 3 days prior to our wedding day, where we were supposed to meet DJ Erwin but he did not show. We asked Pete beforehand when our final songs list should be finished and he told us by the final details meeting. We finished it the day before the meeting.

Fast forward to the wedding day, Pete was great from our ceremony through dinner with all the MC duties.

However, when the open dance party started and DJ Erwin took over everything went downhill. He did not have the updated songs list which was a huge disappointment after how long I worked on it. He was working off of a preliminary list we had made a month before. Not only that but he had no concept of how to blend songs, stopping them in the middle of verses sometimes. Every transition was abrupt, to the point where several guests pointed it out to us the next day. I would have rather just had every song play all the way through than what he was doing. My other issue is that there were things on our do not play list that got played. Hearing our guests complain about the DJ was super disappointing.

Overall, Pete did a great job and I would recommend him if it was just him. He was great to communicate with and did his job well. Unfortunately he dropped the ball passing it on to DJ Erwin and vouching for someone who did not do a good job. I would not recommend DJ Erwin.
