Amplified Entertainment Services, LLC

Dave Lynch was the DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception and he was excellent! We were able to meet with him when we first booked him and again about 2 weeks before the wedding and he had some really great suggestions about the music, especially the ceremony music, as well as the agenda. The online planning tools were really easy to use and helped simplify the planning process. On the day of the wedding, Dave did a great job of keeping everything running on schedule so my husband and I were able to just relax and enjoy the evening!

Professional and perfect in every way!

Dave Wharen was phenomenal. From our meeting with him to the actual day of the wedding we couldn't ask for anything better. We had multiple compliments that the music selections were awesome. Very easy to work with, highly recommended.

Choosing Amplified Entertainment as our DJ service for our wedding was probably one of the best vendor choices we made! Dave Wharen did such a great job at our wedding. He provided both the ceremony and reception music. Our dance floor was hoppin' right up until the very end! We received numerous comments from our guests that the music at our wedding was great. Highly recommended!

I had Dave Wharen for my wedding. He was very helpful with my two meetings prior to my event and very responsive when answering my questions. He was absolutely wonderful the day of my wedding! He had no problem playing our requests and we were able to have a really fun night! I would definitely recommend him!! :)

Dave Lynch from Amplified Entertainment was AWESOME!!! Anytime I needed to talk to him, I'd email him and he would get back to me within minutes! At our consultations, we would get so off track talking because he is so down to earth and so easy to get along with! I even changed some things the day before the wedding and he was more then okay with it! Amplified Entertainment made my wedding reception more perfect that I could have imagined!!

We were lucky enough to be guests at two different event’s where Dave Lynch was DJ’ing, after the first time we saw him we knew we wanted him at our wedding. I’m pleased to say that we were able to keep the tradition alive and had him DJ our wedding on August 13th, 2011. Dave Lynch with Amplified entertainment completely brought our wedding to life. Dave was thorough and thought of everything from coordination of bridal party, order of events, and song selections. Dave kept the party going, kept people on their feet, and made it his goal to make sure everyone was having a good time (which they were). Dave acted as not only DJ but wedding coordinator as well; he kept track of time and was able to gracefully keep all the events moving from the bridal party entrance, first dance, parent dance, cake cutting, etc. Dave made are wedding special, and made it a party. He did a fantastic job and would not have been the same without him.

Dave Lynch was our DJ for our wedding and he did a great job. He is very enthusiastic and he really cares about his job. He made everything super simple and we could have not asked for a better DJ! Choose amplified entertainment if you do not want to have anything to worry about!

Amplified Entertainment was recommended to us by Ceresville Mansion. They did a great job. We had Dave as our DJ. He was very helpful at our meeting with picking out the songs. He did a great job during the reception!

Dave Lynch initially handled my request for quote and was more than willing to answer the multitude of questions that I sent his way. Based on his no-pressure conversation and informative approach, my then-fiance and I decided to hire a DJ when we initially intended to have a friend or family member take care of the task. Our budget was limited for this role since we had not initially counted on having a DJ, however it was SO worth it.

Dave Wharen was the DJ for our reception and we had so VERY many comments and compliments as to our choice of DJ. He kept the party going by staying in tune with the mood of the room and didn't overwhelm our guests with his use of the microphone. That being said, he spoke whenever and exactly when needed to liven things up and to help keep our schedule on track. Although our dancefloor was primarily overrun with the younger children of the group, it at least allowed many of the adults to relax and have fun. Later in the evening, when the children had gone to sleep and the bar had been frequented, the party picked up and there was dance, dance, dance!

The one thing about a DJ is that they're not often given credit for making the reception a great party, but if something goes wrong, trust that the DJ is one of the first to blame. This review is an earnest statement of their quality service and approachability in the time of heightened stress and of a MILLION decisions. Credit should be given where credit is due and Amplified came through for this bride!

ADDED 10/12/10:
One last thing that I forgot to mention is the ease of requesting songs using their online planning forms and music request tools. Up until a few days before the wedding we were able to modify the music that we wanted to have played, make special requests by adding notes that would allow dedications/announcements from the DJ, and the planning form helped ensure we didn't miss a step with the reception events. There was also a separate link that we provided to our guests allowing them to make requests on their own, directly to the DJ, so that each person could feel as though they added to the festivities. Once again, Dave & Dave made it all so easy!

I initially spoke to Dave Lynch about general information and pricing, and was surprised with how relaxed and easy the conversation was! When I found out that Dave Wharen would be our DJ, I was initially a little disappointed, but that didn't last long. Dave W. was great to work with, easygoing, and very responsive to our questions and accommodating of our requests. He was so professional and kept things moving along at our wedding (and believe me, keeping my husband and I on time was a feat in itself!). Most importantly, he kept the party going all night! Our venue staff practically had to drag our guests off the dance floor when our time was up! The pricing is also very, very reasonable for such professional service. I highly recommend Amplified Entertainment for a company that truly understands weddings and how to keep the dance floor moving!

The DJ was the only issue that came up during my wedding. Our DJ may have been sarcastic or whatever that case may have been with one of my family members, but when a family member of the bride becomes offended at the wedding and requests are ignored, then there is an issue. After advising the owner of Amplified Entertainment of our issues that occurred at the wedding, he took care of the issue promptly and very professionally. The wedding was not ruined, but it was just frustrating to have to deal with after coming home from my honeymoon.

I could not have found a better DJ than Amplified Entertainment for my wedding day. Dave was wonderful. From the beginning, Dave made sure that everything was done how I wanted it and with as little stress as possible. He was very easy to reach and his online site for his clients was very useful. His ideas and creativity for making my day unique and special were perfect. We had such a great time and so did all of our guests. I never had to worry about a thing. It was clear every time that I met Dave that he truly loves his job which makes all the difference. Anyone would be missing out by not choosing Amplified Entertainment for their event!

Amplified Entertainment Services was the highlight of my wedding (other than my blushing bride of course!!) The service they provided us was Phenomonal!!! They really new their stuff and played music that appealed to everyone that attended the event. The DJ was very personable and covered many genres as requested, he had our guests in the palm of his hand and was a true proffessional in every sense of the word. If you are considering Amplified Entertainment for your event, DO IT!!!! Thank you AES for all you did, you made the event very memorable which I can not thank you enough for. P.S. I found you here on weddingwire because I wanted to contact you about hosting a upcoming event in Dec.!!

Before we were even engaged we saw Dave DJ at a wedding of friends of ours and we knew we had to have him. Sure enough 2 years later we were engaged and planning our own wedding and we were so lucky to be able to have him at our event. We had a small tragedy during the planning process and had to change the date and location and time... just about everything. He bent over backwards to make it to our event and just as we knew he would did a fantastic job. He is the kind of DJ that makes the crowd want to be involved in the wedding and not just stand in the wings. During the planning process he kept us informed and was so flexible and willing to work with us. The answer to everything was "Don't worry about it we will make it work." We are firm believers that the DJ can make or break your wedding and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect event. Highly recommended!!

Dave Wharen dj'ed our wedding - we were very pleased. He was very laid back in our consultation with him and responsive via email and phone in prepping for our event. Our guests had a good time and enjoyed the music choices.

Dave, the owner, was equally responsive and excited to be working with us. He got the event management part of his website online while we were planning and this made it much easier to communicate with him, rather than faxing and/or mailing details on song choices, etc. Highly recommend.

Many of the guests at my wedding complimented me on my choice of DJ. I would definitely hire him again for any future function.

Dave was very professional but at the same time knew how to get everyone up on the dance floor. I would refer him to anyone!

He was wonderful. He had a great personality that really showed during the night.

These guys were great. They came by for a meeting about a month prior to the meeting to work out any and all snags and talk to me about music. They were willing to find music or use CDs we had for hard to find stuff. The post-ceremony reception was elegant with 40s romance music and then moved into more contemporary stuff for dancing. I actually had 2 DJs they and they were both super-friendly, helpful and unobtrusive.

My biggest fear with having a DJ was that he was going to be cheesy and play crappy music. Dave Lynch is the complete opposite of that. He was awesome. The music was great and he got EVERYONE to dance. I've been to weddings before where no one was having fun and dancing, but this was NOT the case at my wedding. Thanks to Dave, the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception music was exactly how I wanted it all to be.

Dave Lynch with Amplified Entertainment was outstanding. He was enthusiastic and professional and did a great job on our wedding day. Prior to our wedding day, he was available to meet with us and go over specific details and preferences we had and fulfilled each one of them.

I could highly reccommend his services for your wedding as well!

Dave Lynch is one of the best DJs in our area. Well worth the money!
