    The Best DJ / Emcee / Entertainment in the Industry!

    We absolutely LOVE Griz Entertainment! We don’t even want to call them a DJ service because I feel like they did so much more than what you’d hire a DJ to do. They are absolutely an entertainment company for your wedding day.

    One thing I would say is to do whatever upgrades you can do! One of the best things that they did for us was get our wedding monogram with our initials. I designed a custom one, and then they literally made it into a light that they shined up on a giant rock wall in Moab. At night, the guests were absolutely freaking out, and said it was the coolest thing they had ever seen at a wedding 😂 People literally said, “Am I crazy, or are your initials on the mountain??!!!” “how did you do that? That is SICK!” the comments about our initials in the mountain were seriously so funny. At the very least, you’ve GOT to make sure to book that with them! Seeing our initials on the mountain under the Moab starry night sky was truly epic!

    I would also highly recommend the Griz Mobile and the 360 video booth! First of all, the Griz mobile was such a cool vibe! Nobody else has a DJ in a revamped VW bus just absolutely lighting up the dance floor 😂 We had one main request for our AMAZING DJ / Emcee Matt, “Keep everyone dancing!” And believe me, he succeeded. It was our main goal to have the most lit dance floor in wedding history, and I’d say we absolutely did. We had SO much fun, he was awesome with sticking to our music selections and switching it up when needed. Not only that, but Matt brought such a good vibe! He was happy, fun, lively, and kept the mood up the entire night! Not only was he fantastic with the music, but he was SO great about emceeing all the special moments of the night! My fiancé teased me and said, “You gave more speaking parts and requests for him than any other bride probably ever has”. I’m sure he is not wrong haha, but Matt was perfect! I even had him announce special moments with some very specific comments during times like the moment I came out in my husband’s grandma’s wedding gown!

    This is a long review, but I want you to know all the things 😂 If you can, I would also suggest the 360 video booth. It was AWESOME! Our guests had so much fun using this! They even have an amazing Photo Booth from the back of the Griz Mobile, and our guests had a lot of fun with that. It was really special looking out, seeing our guests enjoy themselves so much! A massive part of this was truly thanks to Griz Entertainment! The lights, the vibes, overall they are 100/10 ✨ I hope to have another big event someday so that I can book them again!!

    Thank you so much to Matt, David and the Griz Entertainment team! You guys are the best, and truly made our day so much better than we could have imagined!!

    10/10 Recommend

    I can't recommend Griz Entertainment enough. DJ Ryan was so amazing to work with and went above and beyond. His app was easy, he asked the right questions, and made everything go so smoothly. 10/10 recommend them for your wedding or any events.

    10/10 Recommend Nico & Griz Entrainment!

    From the very start, Griz Entertainment was incredibly easy to work with. To start, they list out all of their services and costs in a very straightforward way that allows you to customize service based on your needs and budget. They use an app (Vibo) that was very intuitive and easy to use. Through the app you select all of the special moment songs and the overall vibe you are looking for. Once we got paired up with our DJ, Nico, I knew we were in good hands. Nico and the whole team were super responsive anytime we had questions leading up to the big day!

    Nico is a very talented DJ who knows how to MC a great dance party! Our guests were out on the dance floor the entire night, which is exactly what we had hoped for. Nico did a great job of reading the room and playing all the right tunes. Absolutely zero complaints! We are still getting compliments about Nico’s skills! 10/10 recommend Griz and specifically Nico to DJ your upcoming wedding or event!

    Best DJ ever!

    Our wedding was absolutely amazing and everything we could have ever asked for and a HUGE part of it was our DJ! We had DJ Starr! Starr was the best DJ ever! Starr was able to get the party going from the beginning and that is exactly what we wanted. Starr kept the crowd 100% involved and we had sooo many of our friends and family the day after our wedding telling us how fun our DJ was and we couldn’t agree more! I 100000% recommend DJ Starr with griz entertainment!

    Highly Recommend!!!!

    These guys are AMAZING! Nico was our wedding DJ and he did an incredible job! Kaci and Ryan did a great job communicating with us throughout the planning process and walked us through what to expect in the months prior to our wedding. They use a planning app which allows you to add your music preferences and plan on your own time, without having to meet in-person on a frequent basis. Nico was very accommodating to my busy schedule and is an amazing DJ! Nico and his lovely assistant are very detail-oriented and made the night stress-free. We got so many compliments about our DJ and ceremony music that night!

    Highly Recommend Griz Entertainment

    We loved working with Griz Entertainment, they are extremely organized, timely in answering my many questions, coordinated sharing their sound system with our band and the Vibo app they used to organize our music was SO easy to use. Nico was our DJ and he was everything we could have ever wanted! He was great about following up prior to our wedding to feel out our vision, he was timely, fun and kept the party going all night! Highly recommend him!

    Perfection!

    Beyond happy and grateful for our experience working with Ryan and Griz entertainment. He goes above and beyond for you to make sure every detail and request is met and then exceeded. Thank you so very much!

    Griz Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Jordan! So glad you enjoyed everything. Your text the next day about it being the "wedding of your dreams" brought a giant smile to my face!

    Best in the business!

    Griz Entertainment was so easy to work with for our wedding! Their communication as a whole is phenomenal and timely. Our DJ that night, Trey, was great. He was friendly, great as an emcee, and really knew how to cater to each guest's interests. I can't recommend them enough!

    Wedding DJ/Emcee

    Nico and his team were FANTASTIC! We had a blast working with Nico and planning the ceremony and reception playlist. He and his team were extremely flexible with ceremony delays and real troopers with unforeseen weather. Their expertise created lasting memories that will be tied to certain songs. The photo booth was a great addition for funny pictures throughout the night (thank you for the team picture!). Huge thank you to Nico and his team and I hope to work with them in the future!

    Nico was the best!

    With all of the stress of wedding planning, I would sometimes forget about certain deadlines, but our DJ, Nico, always made sure to give me reminders. He was helpful throughout the whole process, asked lots of questions about what we wanted, and gave me great advice anytime I asked. He was super flexible! Even during the reception, if there was anything I wanted to change, he was willing to do it! I'm so happy with how everything turned out! We are so thankful for Nico and GRIZ!

    Amazing DJ, perfect wedding!

    I would like to start off this review by saying: If you are on the fence about using Griz Entertainment for your event, just do it! My now-wife and I just used them for our wedding and we could not have made a better choice for a DJ. First of all, we absolutely LOVED the app that is provided to plug in every song you want for every special moment, all the songs you’d want played during cocktail hour, dinner, and open dancing, and even a section to plug in genres and specific songs that you DON’T want played! The app also allowed us to plug in what times we wanted each thing to happen throughout the evening and was so easy to use! Next, I have to rave about our actual DJ. We had DJ Starr for the night, and she did absolutely amazing. We actually knew Starr outside of just our wedding, so we were so excited to find out that she was our DJ for the night! She guided the night along perfectly, worked with our wedding coordinator seamlessly, and made sure everyone had an amazing time. She did an awesome job at reading the crowd and even got in the crowd with us a few times which was SO MUCH FUN! The night turned out perfect and we would not change one single thing about it! Thank you guys so much for making our wedding one to remember and one that we will be talking about for literally the rest of our lives!

    Everybody loved Kaci!

    We can't thank Ryan and Kaci enough for making our wedding reception so memorable.
    Everybody loved Kaci! We got so lucky to have her as our DJ. She was sweet, accommodating and rocking. She took all our requests on their app which was very convenient. We and our guests danced all night and enjoyed very much.
    The lighting was wonderful and created such a beautiful ambience for our evening. Ryan's planning was perfect and the wedding pictures have come out to be very surreal.
    Can't thank you both enough!

    Ryan kept the party going!

    We got married at Whispering Oaks Ranch in Moab, UT on 9/5/21 (we got COVID postponed from the September 2020) and Ryan was very responsive throughout the whole process and helpful when we had to postpone. His app was very thorough so there were no miscommunications. Totally smooth and easy process from start to finish. He did a great job of moving the ceremony along and when it came to the reception, we told him we wanted to dance and he delivered! His mix was amazing - he didn't just play a bunch of songs back to back. His song selection was totally on point, always reading the crowd and keeping the party going. He kept our whole crowd dancing all night and we had the absolute best time. His photobooth was a blast and our guests loved the photo strips. I really can't recommend him highly enough!

    Wedding of the year!

    We had an absolute blast at our wedding and a huge part of that was the DJ! We had DJ Matt and he made our wedding one huge party which is exactly what we wanted. We even ended up doing karaoke which was a huge hit!! In addition, he played every single song that we wanted for the selected songs (I.e. first dance, father daughter, etc). We also had a do not play list that he adhered to. There was a photo booth as well which was a hit. Definitely would recommend this vendor, especially Matt!

    Phenomenal

    I was blown away at the professionalism and quality of everything. Went above and beyond and thought of things that I would have never even thought of. What I loved is that you could be as 100% involved from the details of every single light and every single song including what exact second to start the song from. Or leave that up to his professionalism. Certain aspects I was completely involved and anal with and other things I left up to his professionalism. And both went 100% smoothly and professional and even above and beyond what I imagined. I will use Ryan for every single even from now on!! The absolute best.

    Best DJ you will ever hire!!!

    From the very beginning Ryan was amazing to work with. We were one of the unfortunate couples that our wedding was affected by Covid, and we made the decision to carry on as planned with a smaller crowd, Ryan was SO helpful, and always so quick to respond to my panicked messages throughout the year! We got married at the Hotel Colorado in Glenwood Springs, and I felt like he took care of every thing! From the up lights to the set up and break down, he made me feel at ease as a bride! You will be doing yourself the biggest favor when hiring this man for your wedding! He commands the room and makes the entire process easy and smooth! The app they use for collecting the music for your wedding is SO user friendly and makes the entire process so organized!! Thank you Ryan for the excellent service and having fun with us on our big day!!

    Griz Entertainment's reply:

    Thanks so much Alyssa! Adapting with Covid is the world we live in now and I'm so glad that you were able to roll with the punches as well. Thanks again for the kind words.

    Could Not Recommend Him Enough!

    Kyle and I cannot say enough about DJ Griz and our Wedding. From the photo booth, to the sound for the ceremony, coordinating with our Band etc. We could not have had our wedding without Ryan. Ryan made sure things kept moving along which is one of my biggest pet peeves at a Wedding. He made sure things ran timely and kept the party going. I cannot recommend him enough! You will not be disappointed.

    Everything you’d want in a DJ!

    DJ Ryan Griz Entertainment and their crew - Chad and Chase - did a phenomenal job at being DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception. They were responsive to questions leading up to the big day and for the day of Chad and Chase made things so easy as the timeline sped up in places and slowed in others. Chad also did a great job reading the crowd and playing crowd pleasing music getting us all up on the dance floor! If/when we have another event DJ Ryan Griz Entertainment will be our guys and specifically Chad and Chase!! Thank you guys!!!

    Great work!

    Thes guys did amazing work for our wedding! Originally we hired them just to provide photo booth services. However, do to a previously contracted DJ not fulfilling expectations we had to hire Ryan and his crew for DJ services last minute for our event. They were flexible and willing to help us out! His music selection app is easy to use and makes everything feel very professional. His lighting services fit the venue great and helped out wherever he could for music requests.

    Fabulous DJ at our Telluride wedding!

    Ryan was great to work with, knowledgeable, skilled, and delivered a fantastic evening for us and our guests! Firstly, he provided music and mics for our outdoor ceremony and it went SEAMLESSLY. (We were nervous going in, having attended several weddings recently where mics had squealed, music tracks had cut off abruptly, etc.). We also loved that his app allowed us to input specific song requests for various points throughout the ceremony and reception ahead of time (including for the processional, first dance, etc.), but that he was also able to take the music preferences we shared with him over the phone and craft the perfect flow and dancefloor vibe for the evening. Overall Ryan was super easy to work with, talented, and no fuss - a bride and groom's dream vendor. Highly recommend!

    Five Stars!

    DJ Ryan Griz was awesome to work with! We employed him for lighting, photobooth, DJ music and acoustic guitarist (Tim Brown). We had one call in the planning process to streamline all major details and he took it from there! The whole evening was seamless and the planning process was a breeze. Definitely recommend.

    Griz Entertainment's reply:

    Thanks so much for the kind words Colleen! Loved your "wedding logo" you sent us to use with the Projector & Photo Booth. It really tied everything in nicely and is something I definitely want to start recommending as a great option for future clients.
