Dave was the best! From our very first meeting with him we knew we wanted him as our DJ for our wedding. He had great ideas for the reception (including a private last dance) which we loved. He kept all of us on schedule on the day of and made sure we had nothing to worry about other than having a good time. He checked in to make sure he played all the songs we wanted to hear and kept the party going with great energy and lighting. We also added the photobooth and audio guestbook and they were SO much fun! Would highly recommend Spin Doctor Entertainment for any event but especially weddings!!

On the day of the wedding, Dave was attentive and thoughtful in how he worked with our officiant and coordinator. He was great with announcements and introductions, and his technology never faltered. We also booked a photo booth through Dave, and the experience was amazing for our guests. They provided all of the pictures on a USB and also created a guestbook for us as a keepsake. We would highly recommend Dave with Spin Doctor Entertainment for your event!!

ibly personable, easy to work with, and offers exceptional value for the variety of services he provides. In addition to his outstanding sound system, he also offers a photo booth, audio guest book, dancing on a cloud, custom name projections, and so much more. One of the highlights of working with Dave was his online planning portal, which made organizing our wedding a breeze. The platform allowed us to build our wedding day timeline, provide vendor and bridal party information, and curate the playlist of our dreams with ease. Every detail was organized and accessible, making us feel confident and stress-free throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, Dave exceeded all expectations. Guests came up to us all night long to tell us how incredible the music was, and the dance floor was packed from start to finish. We received countless compliments on the playlist, and everyone had wonderful things to say about both Dave and his partner, who ran the photo booth. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and genuinely invested DJ who goes above and beyond for his couples, we cannot recommend Dave highly enough!

Reilly L

From the very beginning, Dave was professional, organized, and extremely knowledgeable. He met with us multiple times throughout the planning process to review equipment, timelines...

, and music selections, and it was immediately clear how experienced he is with weddings. One thing we especially appreciated was his ability to balance structure with flexibility. We had very specific playlists for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner, and he executed them exactly as requested. For the reception, we trusted his expertise completely, and he did an excellent job reading the room and keeping the night moving smoothly. Dave’s experience really showed in the execution. The transitions were seamless, the announcements were clear and well-timed, and the entire evening flowed without interruption. The song cuts were also incredibly clean and precise, which made everything feel polished and professional from start to finish. Throughout the night, everything ran exactly as planned, allowing us to fully enjoy the celebration without ever worrying about logistics or timing. We are very grateful to have had Dave as part of our vendor team. If you are looking for a DJ who is highly experienced, detail-oriented, and executes flawlessly, we would highly recommend him! Love, R&S

Heart M

Dave was our DJ for our 5.24.26 wedding and boy, he absolutely crushed it. I’ve gotten so much feedback about his professionalism from our guests. He allowed us to curate our own p...

laylists for the entire day and just worked his magic from there. We had SOOO many compliments about the music from our day. For dinner I really only gave him a genre and a year and people thought I was picking all the songs myself. He was able to read the crowd that well and match their energy. Now I love EDM music, and not a lot of people do. Dave was so respectful of what I wanted and that was for the last hour to be a full rave for me and my friends. I have him the songs I wanted to listen so he wouldn’t disappoint us, and it was truly the most fun hour of my life. More than any festival or rave I’ve been to. Dave will get the job done every single time. Book him so you can relax and have the best time ever.

Emilie H

Best DJ EVER! As a Type A bride, I meticulously chose every vendor I worked with, and Dave made it a no-brainer. He had every detail down to a science and made planning feel co...

mpletely seamless and easy from start to finish. And I mean everything…. the floor lighting colors, the backdrop for the photo booth, the custom design for the photo strips, the display on the DJ stand, and even a brand-new earpiece for my officiant so they could be completely hands-free. My wedding truly felt like a dream. Dave kept the dance floor packed all night long, and every song flowed effortlessly into the next without missing a beat. I would rate him a 12 out of 10 if I could! Here’s my advice: hire Dave

Katherine K

Dave was excellent to work with from start to end! From the beginning it was clear that Dave had a lot of experience working with weddings - he anticipated things we might need and...

knew the right questions to ask! He was very responsive and his portal made planning an ease. Day-of he was great ensuring the right music played at the right time and running some activities like the shoe game or bouquet toss! He also provided things like uplighting and the photobooth which were great - the photobooth was SUPER POPULAR with guests (and we enjoyed it too haha) and by the end of it we had a guest picture book of photostrips AND a whole stack of extra photostrips! Highly recommend the photobooth! He checked in on us throughout the day and gave great energy to the dance floor - thank you Dave!

Pete M

Five stars — Dave Parks is an absolute must for your wedding. We hired Dave Parks from Spin Doctor DJ Services for our wedding on May 9th, and he was, without question, one of the...

best decisions we made for our entire event. From our very first call, Dave stood out. He asked all the right questions and offered guidance that went far beyond what we expected from a DJ. He became a true advisor throughout the planning process — thoughtful, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making our day special. On the day itself, Dave wore many hats flawlessly. He served as our MC, keeping the evening flowing naturally and professionally. He brought a photo booth complete with props that our guests absolutely loved, and at the end of the night, we walked away with a beautiful keepsake book filled with all their photos. The uplighting transformed our reception space, and the cloud machine he provided for our first dance created a magical, unforgettable moment we'll cherish forever. Dave isn't just a DJ — he's an experienced professional who elevates your entire event. If you're considering him for your wedding, stop considering and just book him. You won't regret it.

The day of, he helped coordinate and run the wedding making sure everything ran smoothly and he was so helpful. Dave is amazing at what he does and you want him for your wedding!

If you’re looking for a DJ, look no further. If I could give him more than 5 stars, I would. Not to sound cliche, but Dave literally turned our wedding dreams into realities for ou...

r November 2025 wedding. Throughout the entire planning process, Dave was helpful, supportive, and honest. He is really good at what he does. Really good. He really takes his time to get to know his clients at the planning meetings to ensure that everyone is on the same page about everything. Because of this, there were no surprises on wedding day. From the ceremony to the reception, Dave had everything under control. Early on I expressed concern about my husband’s hearing impairment. I was worried that he would not be able to hear the ceremony, speeches, etc. We both expressed these concerns to Dave, who without hesitation, put in the work to figure out a solution. On wedding day, Dave worked with my husband before the ceremony started to make sure he would be able to hear everything. Dave brought extra wires/cables to connect with my husband’s hearing devices. He checked in with him throughout the night to make sure he wasn’t missing anything. I can’t put a price tag on this. Thank you, Dave, for making our wedding the perfect day that it was.

We hired Spin Doctor Entertainment back in May 2025 for our wedding. They came highly recommended by our venue (The Heritage Hotel). We booked him for our reception, late night ka...

raoke and a Photo Booth. This was the best decision we made in the entire wedding planning process. Dave made everything so easy and convenient from the moment we inquired about availability. He is very laid back while being extremely professional and organized. A couple weeks before our wedding we had a meeting with Dave to map out the schedule. He went over the entire timeline, introductions to the reception, how to pronounce names, songs we absolutely wanted played, definitely did not want played, first dance songs, final songs and much more. We were having a traditional Cambodian wedding, and Dave was very accommodating with finding some of these Cambodian songs that we needed to play. From the first song that opened the dance floor, the energy was high and people packed the dance floor all night long until last call. We also added on the Photo Booth package so when people needed a break, they could capture a memory. We were upgraded to the mirror Photo Booth. This Photo Booth was a great experience and all of our guest were raving over it. Dave choreographed the entire night and we did not need to think about the entertainment for a second. We will be forever appreciative of how stress free of an environment he creates. A true professional. Our guest still talk about how much fun they had. We had people on the dance floor who said “I never dance at weddings but I was dancing at yours”. Dave strongly recommended doing a final private dance, just the two of us on the dance floor after all the guest leave. We are so beyond happy we did this. It is a moment we often look back on and cherish. It was an intimate final moment for the two of us to take in our whole day together. Just a small detail of care and attention you will get when you book Spin Doctor Entertainment. Finally, if you are looking to keep the energy going from the reception to 2 am, book the late night Karaoke in the tavern. Our guest were up there singing their hearts out. Thank you Dave and his team for everything.
