What our Clients say

Zak R was our DJ for our wedding this year, and he was amazing! We met with him prior to the day to go over everything and the portal was very user friendly to create the music timeline. The ceremony music was perfect and Zak kept dance floor was popping the entire night, there never was a point where it was empty or dying down. Many of our guests complimented the audio quality during the ceremony, speeches and music. No audio issues at any time. Totally recommend!

We cannot reccomend Larry with Instant Request enough! Instant Request was responsive, helpful, and nailed the DJ assignment. Our assigned DJ was Larry Saunders. Larry was spot on from the first planning meeting to the end of our wedding day! Larry was supportive and excited to take on our ideas and even put his creative twist on the ideas that made them even better! An example would be our idea to do a reverse anniversary dance to kick off an evening full of dancing and great memories! On top of that, Larry rolled with the last minute changes and requests that we made the night before and the day of our wedding. He kept the dance floor alive the entire night and help create and unforgettable wedding night! If we had to do it all again, we would only trust Larry to DJ on our big day!

Instant request was amazing to work with and great at getting back to us whenever we had a question! They have a website that we were able to go into detail which songs we wanted and were able to create a personalized playlist! Since they’re a bigger company, they match a DJ to you based on your preferences and style! Our original DJ wasn’t able to make it, but they sent a replacement and she did an amazing job reading the crowd and getting everyone on the dance floor!

Thank you so much for being part of our special day. The music and dance floor were such an important element of our day and you made us feel so confident that the atmosphere would be perfect. A huge thanks to you and Matt for the incredible experience in booking and planning. We appreciate it so much!

I wanted to say thank you for doing such a great job Friday night at my daughter’s wedding. You read the room so well and kept the dance floor packed all night!

Dorcy & Madison 09/12/2025 Lumber Exchange Event Center (Seth B )

My daughter's wedding was last weekend at Mill City Museum and we were so fortunate to have DJ Auctavias MC and DJ our wedding. I cannot say enough about this talented and personable man. He is a gentleman, knows how to work with clients and packs the dance floor! I'd give 10 stars if I could. Thank you Auctavias!

Just had Xavier DJ our wedding. He was great! He was super open to letting us make a playlist for both out cocktail hour and dance floor. I've heard some DJ only allow you to request a certain number of songs for must play and do not play. Xavier did not cap us on any of these and was super fun during our planning session. We also had to move location a couple times from our ceremony to cocktail hour to reception and he was able to make all transitions seamless. Highly recommend Xavier!

Laura & Jonathan 08/30/2025 Belle Ame Vineyard  (Xavier H)

We had the best experience with Instant Request DJs, and especially with our DJ, Auctavias! From the very beginning, the planning process was so smooth thanks to their online event planner—it covers every detail you could possibly think of, which made it incredibly easy to communicate our vision and finalize everything leading up to the big day. On the wedding day, Auctavias was amazing. He stuck to our plan, kept everything on schedule, and made sure all the important moments flowed seamlessly. He brought such great energy to the night and kept the dance floor packed from start to finish—with both our younger and older guests out there having the best time. We allowed requests, and he did such a great job balancing them while making sure every song fit the vibe and kept the crowd engaged. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you want a stress-free planning process and an unforgettable dance floor experience, we highly recommend Instant Request DJs and Auctavias!

Hannah was our DJ for our big day and if I could her 1,000 stars I would! She met the vibe we were looking for perfectly and had all of our guests on the dance floor all night! Our ceremony music was perfect and she did it exactly the way I had envisioned! If you’re looking for a DJ instant request is perfect! Their wedding planning tool made it so much easier to plan out our timeline! Hannah was absolutely amazing and killed it!!! Not a single thing went wrong and she was a huge part of that!
