“My husband and I were trying to plan a wedding/reception while living away from Louisville. We had to do everything via phone and email. Then COVID-19 hit. We changed our venue. We decided to go ahead and get married and just have a reception. Kenny was absolutely amazing to work with. He was with us the entire way. He continually reassured us that him and his team would 100% be there and do anything they could to make it a great day (minus breaking the law!). He was responsive and thorough. I would use him over and over again, if I needed DJ services often at least! We also got the selfie station from him and my friends said it was best kind of photo booth they had ever seen! Now the day of the reception came. He was on time (maybe even early). He had spoken to everyone who was speaking ahead of time and made sure everything would go smoothly. He came and introduced himself to me and said he had it all taken care of. He communicated very well thru the entire evening... even at the worst part of the night... last call. He seemed like an old friend. Even to the point where my sister thought we had already met and knew each other well. He's personable and considerate. We all know there's those people who want to request songs or even karaoke. He made the point to come and ask us first which we really appreciated! His entire team was fantastic. If you want a smooth sailing wedding/reception use him. He has a 100% satisfaction guarantee and he backs it up! Thank you Kenny and team!”

Our services include careful planning and event direction, perfectly customized to fit the style of each couple, to make your wedding reception exactly what you dreamed of it being.

“Jeremy and his team at JD Entertainment are absolute professionals. I've worked with Jeremy on multiple weddings now, and every single time he shows up prepared, coordinated, and ready to execute flawlessly. He doesn't just play music — he works with me to manage the flow of the entire reception. He communicates with all of us vendors beforehand, knows the timeline cold, and adjusts on the fly when needed. What really impresses me is how he reads the room and keeps couples and their guests moving toward the dance floor instead of getting stuck in lulls. The energy he brings keeps the party going all night. If you're a bride or groom looking for a DJ who's a true professional and a joy to work with, Jeremy is your guy. Highly recommend JD Entertainment.”

“HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.”

Douglas Adam Entertainment is a wedding Traveling DJ business based out of Cincinnati, OH. Owner Doug and his team delight in helping couples throughout the metropolitan area and nationwide celebrate their special days. Douglas Adam Entertainment is driven by passion first and foremost.

“Doug and Andrew made the best team at our wedding! We met Doug at a bridal show a year and a half before our wedding and liked him immediately. He really wants to help you create a wedding that is special and meaningful to you - not a cookie-cutter wedding with package after package he's trying to upsell you on. We were delighted when Doug told us that his partner, Andrew, was moving back to the area and would be working with him at our wedding. Doug talked with us several times throughout our planning process to help us think through the reception - specifically the flow and the feeling of each moment. At our final detail meeting, Doug and Andrew helped us finalize and ramp up some ideas we had been working on (rating speeches using giant numbers that the bridal party held up, us-themed bar trivia during dinner, kiss cam instead of traditional glass-clinking kisses) and also gave us options to add on his Freedom Sticks (party lighting to help make the room/dance floor fun) and several Polaroid cameras and a book to store the pictures in. We took advantage of both and were so happy we did! On the day of the event, Doug took the role of MC and walking around the room to get pictures of people/get everyone involved and Andrew took on the role of primary DJ. Together, they were such a fun team that really brought the party to life! We had SO MANY compliments on how fun they were and I have recommended them to all of my friends with upcoming weddings!! They perfectly matched our vibe to the music and worked hard to make sure that everyone had a great time. If you're looking for a DJ that cares about you as a couple and can bring the party, look no further!”
