- DRDominic “1 leg” RenzulliOct 13, 20255.0I had Ryan Steven's (DJ RyRy) as my wedding DJ and he did a PHENOMENAL job! Our ceremony was moved indoors at the very last minute due to the bad weather. Not only did Ryan make the last minute change easy, he helped us with music and microphones an hour before his job was supposed to start. He did a great job reading the room to get people on the dance floor and saved me by cutting the mother son dance at the perfect time. I am so incredibly grateful he was willing to help with our wedding. We didnt make it easy for him but he handled it like an absolute boss! I highly recommend DJ RyRy 20 out of 10, 100% of the time
- HFHannah FuginiOct 13, 20255.0Ryan did an amazing job as the DJ for our wedding reception. I will be recommending him to anyone I know that needs a DJ!
- ZUZachary UlrichOct 18, 20245.0WOW!! Elevation Events really elevated our event! They were quick to respond to all of our inquiries and they were always friendly, informative, and straightforward! Ryan (DJ RyRy) made sure to customize our music to our tastes, personalities, and desired vibes for our wedding from start to finish. The dance floor at our reception was packed all night. From the music to the uplighting, the aesthetic was perfect and better than we could have imagined. We would definitely book for future events and would recommend them for anyone desiring high quality, professional DJ services.
- CMCrystal MOct 10, 20245.0We’ve used Elevation events for corporate & personal events/functions. Top notch energy & execution. I’d highly recommend them for any event.
Frequently Asked Questions About Active Entertainment
Why should I hire a DJ instead of a band?
A DJ requires a simpler, less expensive set-up that allows you more flexibility as the host of an event. DJs can deliver witty and stylish (and even outlandish) presentations, or they can blend into the background to add a quiet air of sophistication to any environment. DJs aren’t at all high maintenance and often work without taking breaks. Perhaps the best thing of all is that DJs ensure the music you love is exactly the music you’ll get.
When should I book a DJ?
We recommend that you reserve a DJ at least six months before your event, but Active Entertainment is able to accommodate some last-minute calls, so please contact us at your earliest convenience.
Will the DJ play requests?
Absolutely; as long as the client says it is OK for the DJ to take requests. Active Entertainment helps its customers devise appropriate and engaging presentations. As long as requests don’t interrupt the flow of that plan, a DJ is happy to honor requests from the audience.
Will the DJ work overtime?
When overtime hours are not negotiated before an event, Active Entertainment cannot guarantee that a DJ’s services are available past the contracted time. However, the company strives not to book events too close to each other so that a DJ can stay late if needed. Active Entertainment charges $175 for each hour of overtime.
What music medium does Active Entertainment use?
For the best sound quality, Active Entertainment uses Serato Scratch Live and Serato DJ software (MP3).
What are the terms of payment?
Our company accepts cash, Visa/Mastercard/Discovery/AMEX, and checks payable to Active Entertainment.
What DJ equipment does Active Entertainment use?
Active Entertainment uses only the best in DJ equipment and technology, including Pioneer MIDI players and mixers, Rane mixers, Technics Turntables, Shure microphones, JBL self powered speakers, Odyssey cases, Hosa cables and Apple Computers. All lighting and special effects are provided by ADJ and Chauvet.
What will the DJ wear?
Our DJs wear clothing that fits the theme and tone of your event and, if requested, will display their wardrobes for prior approval. Our DJs wear only suits for all corporate events and weddings.
Will the DJ we meet prior to getting married be the DJ at our wedding?
Part of a great wedding reception is the relationship between the DJ and the bride & groom. Unless there is a schedule conflict, the DJ you meet with is the DJ that will be at your event.
How many weddings do you DJ a year?
We provided our DJ services for almost 300 weddings last year and dozens more corporate and private events.
What makes your Wilmington DJs different than others?
All of our DJs have over 5+ years of experience. They all know the art of mixing music, beat matching and reading a crowd. Each DJ is personable, friendly and approachable. Their main goal is to make sure you and your guests are happy. We guarantee the DJ that you book with is the DJ that will be at your event. Active Entertainment uses only the best in DJ technology and we simply know how to rock a party!
What are your cancellation terms?
The retainer fee is non-refundable, and if you cancel within 60 days prior to your event, the entire balance is due.
Will the DJ play music the client provides?
Of course. Active Entertainment highly recommends that its clients provide our DJs with the songs they would most like to hear. That makes our job easier and guarantees our customers’ satisfaction.
