Selective Sound Entertainment

Jay R was very personal and easy to work with! Had people on the dance floor til the last second of our wedding! Great DJ and great choice of music!

I am the mother of the bride, and worked closely with Jay R planning the up-lighting and some of the decor for my daughter's wedding. He had many wonderful ideas, which worked out beautifully, and helped set the mood in the reception area.

Our DJ was John. He supplied the ceremony and cocktail hour music, as well as the reception music. He did a great job keeping everyone on the dance floor the entire evening.

I HIGHLY recommend Selective Sound!!!

Jay R and Christian were the best! So easy to work with and made the wedding a timeless memory. Because of their amazing playlist, the dance floor was full the entire night. I am still getting compliments on how great they were. They truly were able to read the crowd to make it a great celebration. In my option they are the best DJs for a wedding at Pineridge CC because they are very familiar with the space and have a great relationship with the staff. I also used their uplighting services and it was worth every penny. We chose to use a candlight color and it made the ballroom at Pineridge look so beautiful. I highly recommend Selective Sound for your upcoming wedding or event.

So incredibly helpful throughout whole planning process and wedding itself. Will forever be grateful!

Kept the party and dancing the entire night, very strong on the microphone with all announcements.

Selective Sound was excellent to work with. We got so many wonderful comments from the music, to the up-lighting, and the photobooth - everything was great! Our friends and family are still talking about our wedding 6 months later. The up-lightling especially turned a regular-looking hotel conference center into something magical! We couldn't have asked for anything better!

Our DJ from Selective Sound, Jay R, was extremely organized, responsive, and knowledgeable, offering invaluable advice and expertise throughout the planning process. He helped create a timeline and flow of events that he executed flawlessly the night of our wedding. Not only that, Selective Sound also provided our uplighting, personalized wedding gobo and audio/visual equipment as a complete package. Jay R and his assistant were also great at creating and maintaining great energy throughout the evening...they played a huge role in making the wedding so fun and memorable. I highly recommend Selective Sound to any bride-to-be searching for a professional and excellent DJ service!

Jay R. was fabulous! Played what we asked and kept what we didn't want off the playlists. The sound in the venue was perfect too. Many guests commented on our great selection for a DJ, they loved what he was playing.

We used Selective Sound for uplighting and a custom logo to be displayed behind the head table. The uplighting did not span the entire back wall as we had discussed. The custom logo was being reflected from the stage. The lamp was placed in the middle of the stage, which did not allow our band to set up on stage. Instead, our band was floor level, taking up a portion of the dance floor. We were very dissatisfied when we saw the set-up of the room when we entered. The custom logo was blurry, and did not look good at all. We were very upset considering how much the uplighting and logo cost us. This would have been money better spent elsewhere for sure. We thought this would have been a unique and talked about aspect of our reception decor. Instead, it was an embarrassment and a complete waste of money.

Overall we were happy with Selective Sound. I only have a couple complaints of note, but bear in mind when reading them that they accomplished their goal with aplomb: keeping the guests happy.

Our DJ was Jay R. He had been our contact from the very beginning. I found him personable, which is the best quality I think a DJ can have. We had a few miscommunications throughout the process, such as what equipment he would need to bring and what the set-up would be like. Jay R mentioned a number of times that he has 25 years of experience (which frankly I can't believe because he doesn't look to be more than 35 years old or so, and he also said he was of my generation. I've barely been alive more than 25 years.) and that he's worked many times with our venue, so I was under the impression that he would know the standard set up better than I would. There was quite a bit of confusion among myself and my family, Jay R, and our coordinator at our venue, which we weren't expecting.

My other complaint just has to do with the ceremony music. He played the wrong processional song for the groom and bridal party and then didn't begin the recessional after the kiss. My husband and I were just standing there waiting for the music for a very awkward couple of moments. He seemed to be waiting for us to continue on with the ceremony or something, so maybe it was my fault for assuming that he would know to begin the recessional music immediately after the kiss and not wait for some kind of cue. If you're using them for your ceremony, be sure to clarify on that point.

Those minor slights aside, Jay R was great. He was attentive and really showed he cared. We'd use him again and recommend him to friends.

Selective Sound did an excellent job at our wedding and leading up to our wedding! Our DJ, Carl, was very professional, played exactly what we wanted, and kept our guests dancing all night!!

Overall they were very professional and keptthe party going! Best DJ we could have found!!

Remember not to mirco-manage your DJ's every move. Let them have a little freedom and trust them in their knowledge of you wishes. You will thank yourself in the long run.

Out of town brides, these DJs will work with you to get what you want. They are a one stop shop and offer lighting as well. The music quality was superb and they were very professional.

So they mean what they say, no cheesy DJ here. DJ Rick keep the party going all night. The uplighting was also great and it transformed the courthouse to something out of a fairy tale. The also provided us with a monogram and a photobooth that was filled all night. I'm glad selective sound expanded their services it made planning our wedding that much easier!

Rick was fantastic. Our consultation ran smoothly, he was helpful in suggesting what to do and what not to do, and he was very professional. We told Rick the genres of music we liked and what we didn't like, and the rest we pretty much left up to him. It was a little scary at first knowing that a dj can make or break that reception, but he was awesome. It's been two weeks and people are still talking about how much fun they had dancing the night away. Rick also helped keep the timing of everything full under control moving from event to event before opening up the dance floor. We purchased extra lighting and speakers for our cocktail hour, a monogram for the dance floor, and a TV to play a picture slide show we put together ourselves. Everything was perfect, and the price was very fair.

selective sound was a dream! they helped make my daughter's wedding perfect! they kept the crowd engaged the entire evening and knew exactly what to do when. i would absolutely, without any reservation,recommend selective sound.

Jay from Selective Sound was fantastic. He was able to find all the music we wanted (some of which couldn't have been easy) accommodate our desires and make suggestions based on his experience.

On the big day he made special care to get everyone's name right and it didn't take him long to figure out what kind of experience our crowd wanted. Overall it was a great night and we got several compliments on the DJ.

Professional, well dressed, great equipment, fair prices (you can pay less and get a lot less). They are very thorough and organized. They helped us organized and get everything we wanted out of our wedding reception and out of them as DJ's. You don't have to remember everything you want to ask them, because they will ask you. I would highly recommend Selective Sound Entertainment to anyone looking for a DJ.

I met with Joey a few weeks before the wedding. We discussed what type of music we like and what activities we were having at the wedding (cake cutting, bouquet and garter toss, etc). My family is hispanic and I wanted some salsa and merengue played at the wedding. Joey took in all of my suggestions and worked them in. During the reception the music was perfect. Once it came time to dance, the dance floor was never empty. Joey kept the energy level up the whole night. I received many complements from family and friends especially in regard to how well he worked in the spanish music. I would pick Selective Sound Entertainment again in a heartbeat and recommend them to anyone.

Selective Sound did an excellent job with our wedding! They had great ideas to help make our reception extra wonderful and fun!

Selective Sound was so professional and made everything perfect. The online task manager was extremely helpful in selecting music for each major part of the reception. Hands down I have and will keep reccommending Selective Sound Entertainment to anyone! Thanks for making everything amazing !

just let your vendors know exactly what you want!!!

Jay R was GREAT to work with! He made us feel completely at ease with the whole reception. He did everything- we didn't have to worry about a thing! From the time we arrived on site, he met us with a mic and led us into the reception and told us not to worry about anything...he had it covered. And he did! We were able to enjoy the reception without having to worry about where to be and when. He would come grab us when we needed to be somewhere or do something, but otherwise, he ran the show and ensured that our guests enjoyed themselves. We told Jay R that we had some Irish and Slovenian family members, so he threw in some old Irish songs and polkas, which were big hits! I'd recommend Selective Sound to anyone that wants to have a fantastic reception!

Great communication and kept the partying going all night

We were thrilled with Selective Sound for our reception. JR was awesome and everyone had a really good time.

Jeremy is awesome!!! I would recommend him again and again. He made it so easy and did all the mc work for us. He kept us right on track. It turned out fabulous.

Without question one of the most professional vendors we worked with. They gave us great ideas and helped us plan out everything from the Grand entrance to the bridal dances. They even gave us reccomendations for songs that helped us out huge! We spent a few more dollars than we wanted to originally, however it was worth every penny and more. Are friends are still talking about the wedding.

I was a bit disappointed that I didn't have the original DJ that we met, however, he ended up with a conflict and we got another DJ. He was good and played all of the songs we requested -- and we requested that others not be able to request songs, which he handled great - he explained that there were certain songs he had to play and if got a chance he would play their request. He did get a few requests for a few songs and asked if it was okay to play.

The only negative thing I can say is that some people who were sitting in the back of the room complained that they couldn't hear the best man's toast or any instructions as to dinner. I'm not sure if it was a DJ problem or just because our room was so big.

The most positive thing was that the DJ keep people on the dance floor all night long - which is what we wanted.

Selective Sound is a fabulous DJ service...at my own wedding and of friends, they have delivered above and beyond. They are polite, courteous and funny - but they do NOT go overboard with all that unnecessary talking. They do what you want them to do!

The folks at Selective Sound are true professionals! They understand what makes a great DJ! They are very thorough, won't embarrass you or themselves and they will put on a very entertaining show!

I had the pleasure of working with JR at the end of last season. He is a great guy and excellent DJ. He knows how to get the job done and does it with style.

Selective Sound is one of the best DJ services in NE Ohio. They keep the party hopping!
