Dan is so amazing to work with. My husband and I were planning our wedding and did not want our DJ to sound like every other DJ for the weddings we have been to in the past. Dan will exceed your expectations, truly listen to what it is you’re looking for, and if you give him room for creativity, he will not disappoint.
Dan was AMAZING. From the day we booked him, we felt confident in our decision. Dan is kind, hilarious, full of fun stories, and an expert at what he does. He was attentive, spent time nailing down our music styles, listened to us intently, and was always responsive to our wants and needs… and that was all BEFORE the wedding. As for the big day, Dan was the life of the party and our guests danced all night long! We hired him for DJ (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception) and uplighting, which added so much to the reception space. If you want a fun party where the dance floor is packed from the first song to the last, you found your guy. Seriously.
Dan is the ABSOLUTE BEST WEDDING DJ! He was the first person I booked for our wedding because I knew he would make our wedding a blast....and he did! The dance floor was full the entire time and our guests couldn't stop talking about how AMAZING our DJ was! Not only does he DJ, he plays guitar, he sings, he makes the perfect wedding timeline, and he makes your wedding day perfectly tailored to you and your fiance!
WOW, WOW, WOW!! Dan, not sure how to express the incredibly AMAZING night you provided our family and friends for Megan and Drew's wedding! You are EXCEPTIONALLY talented and you clearly ROCKED the party. They always say that a DJ can make or break your event, and I will tell you 3 weeks later I am still having people talk about how FUN it was! Not only are you a talented DJ, you are beautifully kind and understanding person. You make the effort to get to know your clients and you also go out of your way to help with some special details.
Thank you will never be enough for ALL you did to make that night PERFECT!!!!
Dan is the BEST DJ we could have asked for! He was truly just all around incredible. Leading up to wedding day, he was so responsive to emails and all communication and was very personable. I loved how he met with my husband and I months ahead of time to get to know us and learn about our family and friends so he could get an idea of what to play! He edited songs for our first dance and my father daughter dance way ahead of time and was so patient with the small changes I asked for. He made our wedding night the MOST fun night we have EVER had. I lost count of how many people came up to us telling us he was the BEST DJ ever and how much fun they were having. Even 2 weeks later, we still have people contacting us about how amazing he was and how much fun they had at our wedding because of Dan! We will never be able to thank him enough for everything! He honestly made our night the absolute BEST!!!
Dan was the BEST decision we could’ve made for our wedding! We discovered Dan at a friends wedding and absolutely loved the way he read the room for what song to play next and he threw a PARTY - that’s what sold us in the moment, but after working with him WOW did we hit the jackpot booking him. He is personable, super organized, and listens to you to create your perfect day. He takes the time to get to know you, hear your stories, understand your family dynamic, and incorporate music for all of your loved ones. Every time we met with Dan we were more and more impressed with his attention to detail and work ethic! We did not have a doubt in our mind on our wedding that the day would run smoothly and professionally (aka no stress and all fun)!! He exceeded our expectations for the entire day, and when it came time to dance - holy wow did we dance. We had people texting us for DAYS saying how much fun they had, how sore they were from the dance floor, and asking where in the world did we find this amazing DJ. Bottom line - book Dan and you will have an absolutely magical wedding with zero regrets (also, get the cryo gun)
Dan Quinn is truly a one of a kind MC/DJ! Dan went way above and beyond the typical role of wedding DJ to personally create, implement, and deliver a heartfelt, engaged, energetic, and perfectly customized playlist, atmosphere and entire event that was recognized, appreciated, and truly loved by all! Accompanied by his talented and endearing friend/sax musician, Marquise Jones (Marquise Productions), DQB presented a wedding affair that went way beyond my daughter and son-in-law’s dreams. We were all so impressed with and blessed by the level of professionalism, care, talent, and enthusiasm that Dan embodies….any wedding/event would be greatly enhanced by his involvement and leadership…DBQ is a Must Hire!
THE BEST DJ IN THE GAME! There aren't enough words to express our gratitude and love for Dan. He listened to exactly what we wanted, provided helpful tips, and gave us the most PERFECT playlist. My husband and I had the time of our lives, as did our guests.
A little background about our day: We had to postpone our original date due to a COVID exposure within 2 weeks of our wedding day. Not only were we devastated, but our original DJ wasn't available for our new date. Dan was our saving grace - he helped us find a renewed excitement for our new date.
Shortly after we were married, we found out we were pregnant. After Dan found out, he sent us a book to read to our sweet girl! I mean, what other DJ does that?! Dan genuinely cares for his clients - before, during, and after the wedding day. We just hope he is still in the game when it is time for our daughter to get married!!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND DJ DAN!!
Planning a wedding/party can be exhausting. When we started our planning we didn't have much direction, especially with the entertainment and DJ. We received a referral to Dan and that's when we never looked back. Dan's level of engagement and professionalism starts with his communication and initial sit down's to understand who you are, who your family is and who your friends are. He actively listens to your every want/need and then transforms that into reality. We wanted a party. We got a party. Something I'm very thankful for is Dan's ability to read a dance floor and adapt on the fly. Our party started out solid but nothing insane. From there about 65% of our guests went outside to smoke cigars and we completely lost the dance floor. The music changed, the vibe changed but most importantly, Dan caught on and adapted. When we all came back inside, we had 65 minutes to turn it up and once again, Dan adapted and turned our dance floor into complete insanity. I couldn't be happier with how things turned out and I'm very thankful that Dan was able to adapt on the fly. My two pieces of advice are to hire Dan and hire Dan. If you don't hire Dan, you're making the wrong decision. My last piece of advice is to hire Dan. Wedding vendors don't always meet expectations. Very rarely do they exceed expectations. Dan and DBQ Entertainment are on a whole another level than meeting or exceeding expectations. We grew to love Dan and I don't mean that in a cliché sense. Our love for Dan is real and what he was able to bring to our wedding day was nothing short of spectacular.
Now, down to the deets. How does one seamlessly blend sunshiney reggae, accordion heavy Czech music, angsty pop punk, and heavy EDM, all while ensuring a smoothly flowing wedding with no cringey commentary? One doesn't. One hires Dan Quinn.
When we said that we wanted our prelude music to be LoFi John Denver, our processional to be Concerning Hobbits, and our recessional to be some Afrojack with the volume cranked, Dan didn't flinch. He was so stoked to lean in to our ideas, getting excited about them himself, which made us feel even more confident leaving many choices as his own game time decisions.
Choosing a stellar DJ is more integral to a good wedding than many think! The second we hopped on Zoom we knew that he was it for us. Dan is the pinnacle of professional, caring, interested, and fun. He is the only DJ we will ever recommend, because he not only kills the music, but takes no prisoners with his lighting and toys [our flower girl cannot stop talking about you giving her the cryo gun!].
No regrets, 1000/10, hire Dan!
