Testimonials

Josie & Sam – Reeds & Rushes

Instant Request DJ Entertainment was a fantastic choice for our wedding entertainment. From the very first interaction, the team was incredibly helpful, friendly, and professional. They took the time to understand our music preferences and vision for the day, and worked closely with us to create a fun, energetic playlist that kept our guests dancing all night long. On the day of the wedding, the DJ had a great personality and really got the crowd excited, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. We were so impressed by their attention to detail and ability to keep the party going. Instant Request DJ Entertainment truly helped make our special day even more memorable."

Taylor & Brian – Machine Shop

We had the honor of working with DJ Jimmy for our wedding, and he was absolutely incredible! He read the crowd perfectly, kept the dance floor full the entire night, and created such a fun and memorable atmosphere. Our guests loved the music and have been so complimentary of Jimmy! Leading up to the wedding, Jimmy made himself available to answer questions and run through the day of timeline, which took the stress off of us and we are so appreciative. Working with Instant Request DJ and DJ Jimmy was the best experience and we highly recommend working with them! We could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding!

Kailey & Gage – The Falls Weddings & Events

We used Instant Request for our wedding October 24, 2025 and had the absolute BEST experience with them. Communication was quick and attentive. The event planner they provided to assist with music choices and event flow was super user friendly and made the process so easy. It was very organized and laid everything out for us from ceremony music to open dance floor. Jimmy B was our assigned DJ and he was so FANTASIC!! I seriously cannot say enough good things about him! He is very knowledgeable, professional, and definitely knows how to keep the dance floor full. For our grand entrance, our wedding party came in to Bring 'em Out and then performed the Vikings Skol Chant before we entered to the NFL theme song and Jimmy pulled this transition off flawlessly. Instant Request will always be the top choice for us if any future DJ needs arise. Thank you so much Matt and Jimmy B!

Deanna & Matthew – Hyatt Regency Mpls.

DJ Jimmy was the DJ for our wedding and we are SO happy we hired him. Prior to the wedding, he met with us, answered any questions we had, and was so intentional and responsive to what we wanted for the dance. Our wedding included different ethnic songs, and it was easy to collaborate on what would be best for the flow of the dance. Outside of his great song selections, the one thing we appreciated most was that we could trust him. We did not have to "worry" about the flow, the songs that would be played, etc. (on the day of) because we truly trusted him to use his God-given talent to engage the guests and have a successful dance. It felt so reassuring to go into the wedding day with that trust! I would hire DJ Jimmy for any event where you want to get the guests up, moving, and dancing.

Shannon & Travis – Union Depot St. Paul

Our DJ was AMAZING!! A true professional! Clearly not his first rodeo. The dance floor was never empty and he handled every special request (even the occasional curveball) like he saw it coming, anticipated it, and was prepared. Prompt...professional...poised. You can worry about a million things at an event. The DJ wasn't one of them. He gave us peace of mind...and one helluva party! Jimmy was our DJ for our wedding reception and he was nothing short of amazing. 🙌🏼 Thank you Jimmy for bringing the party and giving our guests such a great time!!!

Julia & Blake – Hutton House

Hannah & Nic – Brackett’s Crossing Country Club

Jimmy was AMAZING!! He completely understood the assignment. The dance floor was fully packed the entire night and he read the vibes so well. The agency was super easy to work with and communication was great! We met with Jimmy over Zoom about 2 weeks before our wedding and we felt really comfortable after that meeting knowing that he’s got the day covered.

Kristen & Adam – Hutton House

We chose Jimmy as our black tie DJ and are so glad we did! Our day went so smooth and he perfected every detail. Highly recommend Instant Request and specifically Jimmy!

Lauren & Griffin – Crow River Winery in Hutchinson

Jimmy was our DJ and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He played all the songs we wanted to hear and was able to read the dance floor and play songs that meshed well with our choices. From the planning before hand and to the day of, we never had a doubt that we weren’t in great hands. We can’t thank them enough

Hadley & Michael – Hutton House

We had an amazing experience with Instant Request Entertainment and our DJ, Jimmy B! From start to finish, everything was seamless and so well organized. Their online planning tool made it super easy to input song requests, must-plays, and overall vibe preferences. Jimmy B took the time to go over our vision with us—and wow, did he deliver. Guests are still telling us how much fun they had on the dance floor! He read the room perfectly, taking into account the mix of ages and effortlessly transitioning from classic wedding favorites to full-on club hits that kept our friends dancing all night long. The lighting setup made the whole space feel magical. They were also very reasonably priced and provided AV equipment for our ceremony, which made the whole day run even more smoothly. We can’t recommend Instant Request and Jimmy B enough. If you want a packed dance floor and a DJ who just gets it, look no further!

Valerie & Dustin – Mystical Rose Gardens – Jimmy B

We had Jimmy B as the DJ wedding and literally couldn't have asked for anyone better. We got soooooo.... many compliments and the dancefloor was full all night long. We would highly recommend Instant Request, their software for music selection and planning the whole night was amazing. We would give Jimmy B an even higher recommendation, he was fabulous.

Hannah & Wade – Woodhaven Weddings + Events – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy absolutely killed it! He captured the vibe we wanted the entire night. Everyone was impressed with how he kept people on the dance floor for so long. Great communication and easy to get along with—not to mention, he made the BEST mash-up of my favorite songs. Highly recommend! Also, the cold sparks were a hit :P

Liz & Tate – The Aisling at Troy Burne Golf Club – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy was amazing to work with and made our night even more fun with the dance floor being packed! He was thorough throughout the process of meeting with us and taking care of any requests we had. We recommend ANYONE to use Instant Request DJ Entertainment and DJ Jimmy!

Heather & Ross – Olympic Hills Golf Club – Jimmy B

We had a great experience using Instant request for our wedding. They had all the music we wanted to use (as well as extra versions of the songs we wanted that we ended up liking more), and there was one song I requested them to their library and they made it happen with no issue. We chose DJ Jimmy and couldn’t have been happier! We felt he really understood us and what we wanted the vibe for our wedding to be like when we met with him before the wedding, and he definitely executed that on our wedding night. We even pitched him an alternative to the dollar dance, and he helped us fine tune it and it ended up going better than we expected. Overall we were very happy with our experience.

Rachel & Brody – Oak Ridge Country Club – Jimmy B

We had a wonderful experience with Instant Request-specifically with our DJ Jimmy B! He was very professional, friendly, and helpful. We were not entirely sure what we wanted to music, and our pre wedding call with him cleared everything up. We loved how he managed the music and our reception and wedding, especially how he was intuitive to ours and our guests dancing needs as the night went on! We would highly recommend using Instant Request and asking for Jimmy!

Emily & Jacob – Lowertown Event Center – Jimmy B

We hired Instant Request for our wedding, which ended up being rescheduled due to COVID. Instant Request was incredibly flexible and easy to work with. We picked the black tie DJ and unfortunately our original DJ retired so we had to pick another. Matt and the team were so helpful in finding another, similar DJ who would work well for our event. We ended up with DJ Jimmy who was amazing! We really enjoyed working with him and thought he did an excellent job at our wedding. He communicated well with our wedding planner throughout the night and most importantly - kept everyone on the dance floor all night! We highly recommend instant request and DJ Jimmy!

Ali & Zak – Nicollet Island Pavilion – Jimmy B

It’s hard to imagine having a better experience with a wedding DJ service than I had with Instant Request DJ Entertainment and specifically, DJ Jimmy B from their Black Tie Staff. We hired DJ Jimmy to play music and supply a microphone for our wedding ceremony and our reception. DJ Jimmy was incredibly professional and well-prepared, he did a great job during our ceremony, and an even better job getting people on the dance floor. He played music that we requested and added in his own selections that were fantastic. He was a great communicator during the event and I really appreciate the amazing job he did for us. I’d recommend DJ Jimmy and Instant Request to everyone!

Stephanie & Adam – Semple Mansion – Jimmy B

We LOVED our DJ – Jimmy B.  He met and far exceeded our expectations.  He was a perfect fit for our style! He got everyone moving, dancing, entertained, and involved.  As the wedding approached, my biggest fear was that no one would dance, and that was definitely not the case! Jimmy played the perfect mix of old and new music, and again, it got everyone moving! I loved the dance – in fact, I am almost positive I danced to every single song! Jimmy was definitely in tune with us and the audience!  The thing I like best about Instant Request is that our DJ made our day absolutely perfect! I loved that I was able to put in a request for a DJ that came recommended to us, and that we got to use him and LOVED him! I love how quickly people responded to my emails and questions.  I also loved how we could request/block music in the online event planner.  We also loved that we got a great deal for our DJ services! We got a special price/deal and it was such a great value! As our wedding day got closer, I was worried that we “didn’t spend enough” on a DJ and boy was I wrong! Jimmy far exceeded our expectations! I truly believe we got a wonderful deal for the price!  Thank you so so much for making our wedding day perfect and enjoyable! Our guests were dancing the night away (as was my husband and I) and our guests reported having a fabulous time!!   We had the best night of our lives!

Lissy & Andrell – Bearpath Golf & Country Club – Jimmy B

We hired Instant Request through our reception venue and were SO glad we did! DJ Jimmy Bogen was phenomenal throughout the whole process from the initial meeting to the end of our reception. He was so easy to work with and incredibly flexible! Instant Request has an awesome online library of songs that you can pick as must haves, likes, or don’t play’s. We ended up changing our first dance song a few nights before the wedding and he was totally cool with it! The dance itself was awesome. The various events throughout the reception flowed seamlessly and he did such a great job reading the crowd and keeping everyone grooving. We never saw an empty dance floor the whole night and we even had my grandparents and great uncles on the dance floor the same time as my husband’s frat brothers! We had a very diverse wedding and guests and DJ Jimmy was able to accommodate everyone’s tastes! THANK YOU Instant Request and DJ Jimmy Bogen for making our reception the best dance we could’ve asked for! We had THE BEST DJ for our wedding and it is all thanks to your company!! Jimmy Bogen was phenomenal!! Thank you!!!

Karen & Ross – St. Paul Athletic Club – Jimmy B

I wanted to reach out to you and thank you for recommending Jimmy to be our DJ. Ross and I really cannot put into words how happy we were with Jimmy and his ability to facilitate an awesome party! We had multiple guests approach us after the wedding saying how great he was!! Choosing Instant Request as our DJ vendor was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding planning process! The online event planner made what can be an overwhelming and daunting task into a simple, fun and easy way to select your music and organize your dance. We were so lucky to have worked with Jimmy as our DJ for our wedding night. We knew from the moment we met him, we were in good hands. Jimmy worked with us making last minute changes all the way up to the week of our wedding and he never missed a beat. He was extremely professional and FUN to work with and also so accommodating, with our custom dinner playlist and our ethnic Greek music and dancing! It is amazing how well he was able to read the crowd and keep the party going all night long! Our guests are still talking about how great the music and dance, as well as the light show was! Thank you, Jimmy for making our reception a memorable one for us and for our guests! We truly loved working with you and Instant Request! Jimmy – thank you thank you thank you!!! You kicked serious butt at our reception! We had a couple guests get video footage of the dance and I swear there had to have been 70+ people on the dance floor all night! Everyone keeps raving about how awesome you were! We are so grateful! I would recommend you and Instant Request to any engaged couple out there! Thank you for everything!

Vanessa & Brady – Hutton House – Jimmy B

Instant Request, as always, did a FANTASTIC job! I’ve attended several weddings where Instant Request was used as a DJ, so when it came to planning my own wedding – it was a no brainer!  Jimmy did a FANTASTIC job at keeping the dance floor alive and playing songs to get everyone up and dancing! I wanted the dance to go all night long. 11/10 recommend Instant Request for anyone looking for quality, friendly and supreme service!

Jess & Katie – Green Acres Event Center – Jimmy B

We had Jimmy B as our DJ for our September wedding and he was BEYOND amazing! We first saw Jimmy perform at our friend’s wedding and instantly knew we wanted him as our DJ for our wedding. Jimmy sat down with us and really narrowed down the feel we wanted for our wedding. Jimmy was organized and put us at ease when we couldn’t think of every song we wanted to play. The music was high quality and the equipment was pristine! We received so many compliments about our reception and how Jimmy made the people who normally will not dance, dance the night away! We HIGHLY recommend Jimmy for your wedding reception! Thanks again Jimmy!

Cindy & Andy – FIVE Event Center – Jimmy B

Jimmy B was awesome! We met him at FIVE Event Center during an open house, and we knew we wanted him as our DJ right away. He was great to work with and made sure to stick to my wife’s playlist. He was great reading the floor and playing songs to keep the dancing going. We received a lot of compliments. A few of the vendors we worked with asked who our DJ was going to be, and when we said Jimmy B, they immediately lit up and said how much they love working with him. So definitely a great person and absolutely worth the price.

Dylan & Connor – Carlson Rotunda – Jimmy B

The office staff was friendly, accommodating, timely and extremely helpful with e-mails and phone calls.  The online event planner software was very useful. It was really helpful in organizing the music for all the different parts of our day and the sample playlists were great. Our DJ, Jimmy, was great. He fit our style perfectly and completely listened to our likes and dislikes on the day-of, even when many people were requesting songs on our “do not play” list, which was much appreciated. What we liked best about Instant Request was our DJ. He was a perfect match for us and we enjoyed working with him. We also enjoyed the level of experience and professionalism at Instant Request in general. It made us feel like we were in good hands and it was one less area of our wedding to worry about. There was nothing we were disappointed in whatsoever. We thought Instant Request’s pricing was GREAT. We were initially meeting with another vendor who tried to tell us we needed double the lights that Instant Request said we needed to achieve the same effect. We felt like they were just trying to up-sell us and get us to spend as much as possible. We never felt that way working with Instant Request.

Kim & Bradley – James J. Hill Reference Library – Jimmy B

Instant Request is an excellent vendor that comes at a very reasonable price. We had our entire event in one location so we hired Instant Request to handle the music for everything: our wedding ceremony (pre-wedding music started at 4:30 pm), cocktail hour, dinner hour (including playing a DVD slideshow on a large screen), and the dance which went until 12:00 am. Before the wedding, they provide an online event planner that helps you to plan every aspect of the music for your event – from ceremony to first dance to whether you want the “Chicken Dance” played (no thanks :-). The planner also has every song on the planet to browse and listen to and there are suggestions provided as well. Jimmy B. was our DJ and he was awesome. We paid extra for the “black tie” service which included hand-picking our DJ and meeting him in person. Upon meeting Jimmy, we were put at complete ease because it was clear that he was competent and capable and had a wide range of knowledge regarding the different music genres. He not only looked like a professional DJ, he sounded like a real radio personality in his tone, inflection and confidence at the mic. We would without a doubt recommend Instant Request and DJ Jimmy B.

Bridgette & Brenton – Minneapolis Grain Exchange – Jimmy B

We went with the "black tie" option so we could choose our DJ. My sister is in the wedding industry and she recommended that we go with Jimmy B. He was incredible. He was a true professional and really easy-going. He listened to all our requests and made them happen. He was very responsive with emails. He also had an excellent feel for what songs to play and blended a few songs together (mash-up) style that made the music really stand-out/unique.

Carly & Fred – Leopold’s Mississippi Gardens – Jimmy B

Our DJ was absolutely FANTASTIC! Charles made sure things ran smoothly and went through all the finer details thoroughly with us beforehand. We had a first-time officiant (friend) and he made sure to connect with him before the ceremony to make him feel comfortable. The music was the perfect mixture of old and new to keep people dancing all night. Thank you so much for making this process simple!

Claire & Toby – Lowertown Event Center – Jimmy B

Justin was incredible. He was a great emcee throughout the night and played a selection of music that got everyone of our guests dancing. We had multiple people tell us they've never seen more people dancing throughout the night than at our wedding. That's the ultimate compliment to Justin.

Beth & Dylan – Rush Creek Golf Club – Jimmy B

If you are looking for a DJ look no further. This was by far my best vendor. So organized professional reasonably priced and AMAZING! Jimmy B exceeded all expectations. We had so many guests compliment us and many asked for his information for their upcoming events. The entire night ran smoothly with Jimmy's lead. He was so personable and quick to read the crowd and select the best song choices. We can't say enough good things. Thank you Jimmy for an amazing dance party! Words fall short of expressing what a great job you did at the reception! Not only did you keep the party going on the dance floor but you were so organized and your calm attitude put both Dylan and I at ease. We had so many compliments on how fun our dance was and how wonderful you were! Thank you for running a night we won't ever forget! We will treasure the memories forever!

Christi & James – FIVE Event Center – Jimmy B

Jimmy was amazing. He was such an awesome DJ. Every one of my guests and family members were raving about him. I could not have asked for a better DJ!!! It was perfect

Caroline & Ryan – Loring Social – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy was hands down the BEST! The dance floor was full the entire night. He went off of are play list and songs that we selected but also felt the vibe of the room and decided when to switch it up and change the song. If you are looking for a DJ for an event Jimmy is the guy!!!!! Great music and great entertainment! Made for a great wedding.

Courtney & David – Hutton House – Jimmy B

Very good and got only positive feedback about how fun the DJ was throughout our wedding! Thank you and I highly recommend using this DJ to anyone else getting married!

Amy & Jon – Hyatt Regency Bloomington – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy is amazing. He had incredibly creative ideas and was very flexible to work with. He had our wedding vision in mind and kept people on the dance floor the entire night. I wouldn't go with anyone else for any of our future events!

Annie & Kevin – Dellwood Country Club – Jimmy B

FUN helpful professional just awesome! If we could only repeat one detail of our wedding it would be booking Instant Request specifically Jimmy B. I did a lot of research before picking Jimmy B and I'm so glad I did. We knew right away at our planning meeting that we were in good hands. He was extremely helpful and overall fun to be around. The day of our wedding he was amazing! He did everything we asked and then some. He knew having a full dance floor was important to me and he made sure it happened! Jimmy was able to read the room and change the music accordingly. He thought about our older guests children and everything in between. We can't say enough about how much we loved having him. I HIGHLY recommend Instant Request but specifically get Jimmy B as your DJ!!

Annie & Matt – Wyndham Springfield City Centre – Jimmy B

Jimmy was absolutely amazing from the start all the way to the end. Website for picking out songs made our lives so easy and changing songs later on wasn't an issue. Would use for all my future marriages. (Hopefully not though)

Amanda & Rob – Vadnais Heights Commons – Jimmy B

I booked Instant Request DJ Entertainment for my wedding this past July. Mitch was great to work with and was patient with all the questions I had before booking. We were luckily enough to be assigned with Jimmy B as our DJ. He was INCREDIBLE. I think I truly lived my best life out on the dance floor. It was packed the whole time and he did such a good job playing songs that everyone loved. I could not recommend him or Instant Request DJ more. Truly made my wedding the most it could have been!

Caitlin & Joe – Hidden Meadow and Barn – Jimmy B

Instant Request was easy to work with from the beginning and very organized. Our DJ Jimmy B was amazing!!! He put together our ceremony music seamlessly even using a family piano recording for us. He created the best dance floor ever - it was full and non-stop until the end of the night! We had multiple guests tell us that not only was Jimmy B the best wedding DJ they had ever encountered but that we also had the best wedding dance floor ever! It was a perfect fun-filled night thanks to Jimmy - exactly what we had hoped for! Cannot recommend Instant Request or Jimmy B highly enough! Thank you for everything!

Allison & Martin – Mystic Lake Casino & Hotel – Jimmy B

We would 100% recommend Instant Request and mainly DJ Jimmy B. He read the room and kept the dance floor full the entire night. We received multiple compliments on how good the music was. We upgraded to the Black Tie DJ and got to meet Jimmy about 2 weeks before the wedding. It was great to get to know him and go through the entire wedding day in detail. We also upgraded our DJ booth to a white tufted booth last minute and we are so glad we did. Our dance floor was in the middle of our wedding and the booth made it look more elegant. We couldn't of asked for a better DJ. We danced the night away!

Caroline & Preston – Minneapolis Event Center – Jimmy B

From start to finish Instant Request did an amazing job and we are so happy with the final result! We had so many compliments about DJ Jimmy B from his music choice to the perfect level of DJ involvement! Their online Planner Tool was incredibly helpful as we planned out our day. We would definitely recommend them!

Ellie & Justin – Minneapolis Event Center – Jimmy B

Instant Request was great! We had DJ Jimmy for our wedding day and he did an amazing job! He made sure all of our requested songs were played. We definitely recommend this DJ group.

Abby & Gary – Pinewood Weddings And Events – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy B was friendly flexible and accommodating the whole time we worked with him. He did an excellent job reading the room at our wedding and adjusting the songs accordingly. He played all of our music that we requested while throwing in some extras that were hits.

We even pitched him an alternative to the dollar dance, and he helped us fine tune it and it ended up going better than we expected. Overall we were very happy with our experience.

We had a wonderful experience with Instant Request-specifically with our DJ Jimmy B! He was very professional, friendly, and helpful. We were not entirely sure what we wanted to music, and our pre wedding call with him cleared everything up. We loved how he managed the music and our reception and wedding, especially how he was intuitive to ours and our guests dancing needs as the night went on! We would highly recommend using Instant Request and asking for Jimmy!

Emily & Jacob – Lowertown Event Center – Jimmy B

We hired Instant Request for our wedding, which ended up being rescheduled due to COVID. Instant Request was incredibly flexible and easy to work with. We picked the black tie DJ and unfortunately our original DJ retired so we had to pick another. Matt and the team were so helpful in finding another, similar DJ who would work well for our event. We ended up with DJ Jimmy who was amazing! We really enjoyed working with him and thought he did an excellent job at our wedding. He communicated well with our wedding planner throughout the night and most importantly - kept everyone on the dance floor all night! We highly recommend instant request and DJ Jimmy!

Ali & Zak – Nicollet Island Pavilion – Jimmy B

It’s hard to imagine having a better experience with a wedding DJ service than I had with Instant Request DJ Entertainment and specifically, DJ Jimmy B from their Black Tie Staff. We hired DJ Jimmy to play music and supply a microphone for our wedding ceremony and our reception. DJ Jimmy was incredibly professional and well-prepared, he did a great job during our ceremony, and an even better job getting people on the dance floor. He played music that we requested and added in his own selections that were fantastic. He was a great communicator during the event and I really appreciate the amazing job he did for us. I’d recommend DJ Jimmy and Instant Request to everyone!

Stephanie & Adam – Semple Mansion – Jimmy B

We LOVED our DJ – Jimmy B.  He met and far exceeded our expectations.  He was a perfect fit for our style! He got everyone moving, dancing, entertained, and involved.  As the wedding approached, my biggest fear was that no one would dance, and that was definitely not the case! Jimmy played the perfect mix of old and new music, and again, it got everyone moving! I loved the dance – in fact, I am almost positive I danced to every single song! Jimmy was definitely in tune with us and the audience!  The thing I like best about Instant Request is that our DJ made our day absolutely perfect! I loved that I was able to put in a request for a DJ that came recommended to us, and that we got to use him and LOVED him! I love how quickly people responded to my emails and questions.  I also loved how we could request/block music in the online event planner.  We also loved that we got a great deal for our DJ services! We got a special price/deal and it was such a great value! As our wedding day got closer, I was worried that we “didn’t spend enough” on a DJ and boy was I wrong! Jimmy far exceeded our expectations! I truly believe we got a wonderful deal for the price!  Thank you so so much for making our wedding day perfect and enjoyable! Our guests were dancing the night away (as was my husband and I) and our guests reported having a fabulous time!!   We had the best night of our lives!

Lissy & Andrell – Bearpath Golf & Country Club – Jimmy B

We hired Instant Request through our reception venue and were SO glad we did! DJ Jimmy Bogen was phenomenal throughout the whole process from the initial meeting to the end of our reception. He was so easy to work with and incredibly flexible! Instant Request has an awesome online library of songs that you can pick as must haves, likes, or don’t play’s. We ended up changing our first dance song a few nights before the wedding and he was totally cool with it! The dance itself was awesome. The various events throughout the reception flowed seamlessly and he did such a great job reading the crowd and keeping everyone grooving. We never saw an empty dance floor the whole night and we even had my grandparents and great uncles on the dance floor the same time as my husband’s frat brothers! We had a very diverse wedding and guests and DJ Jimmy was able to accommodate everyone’s tastes! THANK YOU Instant Request and DJ Jimmy Bogen for making our reception the best dance we could’ve asked for! We had THE BEST DJ for our wedding and it is all thanks to your company!! Jimmy Bogen was phenomenal!! Thank you!!!

Karen & Ross – St. Paul Athletic Club – Jimmy B

I wanted to reach out to you and thank you for recommending Jimmy to be our DJ. Ross and I really cannot put into words how happy we were with Jimmy and his ability to facilitate an awesome party! We had multiple guests approach us after the wedding saying how great he was!! Choosing Instant Request as our DJ vendor was one of the best decisions we made throughout the wedding planning process! The online event planner made what can be an overwhelming and daunting task into a simple, fun and easy way to select your music and organize your dance. We were so lucky to have worked with Jimmy as our DJ for our wedding night. We knew from the moment we met him, we were in good hands. Jimmy worked with us making last minute changes all the way up to the week of our wedding and he never missed a beat. He was extremely professional and FUN to work with and also so accommodating, with our custom dinner playlist and our ethnic Greek music and dancing! It is amazing how well he was able to read the crowd and keep the party going all night long! Our guests are still talking about how great the music and dance, as well as the light show was! Thank you, Jimmy for making our reception a memorable one for us and for our guests! We truly loved working with you and Instant Request! Jimmy – thank you thank you thank you!!! You kicked serious butt at our reception! We had a couple guests get video footage of the dance and I swear there had to have been 70+ people on the dance floor all night! Everyone keeps raving about how awesome you were! We are so grateful! I would recommend you and Instant Request to any engaged couple out there! Thank you for everything!

Vanessa & Brady – Hutton House – Jimmy B

Instant Request, as always, did a FANTASTIC job! I’ve attended several weddings where Instant Request was used as a DJ, so when it came to planning my own wedding – it was a no brainer!  Jimmy did a FANTASTIC job at keeping the dance floor alive and playing songs to get everyone up and dancing! I wanted the dance to go all night long. 11/10 recommend Instant Request for anyone looking for quality, friendly and supreme service!

Jess & Katie – Green Acres Event Center – Jimmy B

We had Jimmy B as our DJ for our September wedding and he was BEYOND amazing! We first saw Jimmy perform at our friend’s wedding and instantly knew we wanted him as our DJ for our wedding. Jimmy sat down with us and really narrowed down the feel we wanted for our wedding. Jimmy was organized and put us at ease when we couldn’t think of every song we wanted to play. The music was high quality and the equipment was pristine! We received so many compliments about our reception and how Jimmy made the people who normally will not dance, dance the night away! We HIGHLY recommend Jimmy for your wedding reception! Thanks again Jimmy!

Cindy & Andy – FIVE Event Center – Jimmy B

Jimmy B was awesome! We met him at FIVE Event Center during an open house, and we knew we wanted him as our DJ right away. He was great to work with and made sure to stick to my wife’s playlist. He was great reading the floor and playing songs to keep the dancing going. We received a lot of compliments. A few of the vendors we worked with asked who our DJ was going to be, and when we said Jimmy B, they immediately lit up and said how much they love working with him. So definitely a great person and absolutely worth the price.

Dylan & Connor – Carlson Rotunda – Jimmy B

The office staff was friendly, accommodating, timely and extremely helpful with e-mails and phone calls.  The online event planner software was very useful. It was really helpful in organizing the music for all the different parts of our day and the sample playlists were great. Our DJ, Jimmy, was great. He fit our style perfectly and completely listened to our likes and dislikes on the day-of, even when many people were requesting songs on our “do not play” list, which was much appreciated. What we liked best about Instant Request was our DJ. He was a perfect match for us and we enjoyed working with him. We also enjoyed the level of experience and professionalism at Instant Request in general. It made us feel like we were in good hands and it was one less area of our wedding to worry about. There was nothing we were disappointed in whatsoever. We thought Instant Request’s pricing was GREAT. We were initially meeting with another vendor who tried to tell us we needed double the lights that Instant Request said we needed to achieve the same effect. We felt like they were just trying to up-sell us and get us to spend as much as possible. We never felt that way working with Instant Request.

Kim & Bradley – James J. Hill Reference Library – Jimmy B

Instant Request is an excellent vendor that comes at a very reasonable price. We had our entire event in one location so we hired Instant Request to handle the music for everything: our wedding ceremony (pre-wedding music started at 4:30 pm), cocktail hour, dinner hour (including playing a DVD slideshow on a large screen), and the dance which went until 12:00 am. Before the wedding, they provide an online event planner that helps you to plan every aspect of the music for your event – from ceremony to first dance to whether you want the “Chicken Dance” played (no thanks :-). The planner also has every song on the planet to browse and listen to and there are suggestions provided as well. Jimmy B. was our DJ and he was awesome. We paid extra for the “black tie” service which included hand-picking our DJ and meeting him in person. Upon meeting Jimmy, we were put at complete ease because it was clear that he was competent and capable and had a wide range of knowledge regarding the different music genres. He not only looked like a professional DJ, he sounded like a real radio personality in his tone, inflection and confidence at the mic. We would without a doubt recommend Instant Request and DJ Jimmy B.

Bridgette & Brenton – Minneapolis Grain Exchange – Jimmy B

We went with the "black tie" option so we could choose our DJ. My sister is in the wedding industry and she recommended that we go with Jimmy B. He was incredible. He was a true professional and really easy-going. He listened to all our requests and made them happen. He was very responsive with emails. He also had an excellent feel for what songs to play and blended a few songs together (mash-up) style that made the music really stand-out/unique.

Carly & Fred – Leopold’s Mississippi Gardens – Jimmy B

Our DJ was absolutely FANTASTIC! Charles made sure things ran smoothly and went through all the finer details thoroughly with us beforehand. We had a first-time officiant (friend) and he made sure to connect with him before the ceremony to make him feel comfortable. The music was the perfect mixture of old and new to keep people dancing all night. Thank you so much for making this process simple!

Claire & Toby – Lowertown Event Center – Jimmy B

Justin was incredible. He was a great emcee throughout the night and played a selection of music that got everyone of our guests dancing. We had multiple people tell us they've never seen more people dancing throughout the night than at our wedding. That's the ultimate compliment to Justin.

Beth & Dylan – Rush Creek Golf Club – Jimmy B

If you are looking for a DJ look no further. This was by far my best vendor. So organized professional reasonably priced and AMAZING! Jimmy B exceeded all expectations. We had so many guests compliment us and many asked for his information for their upcoming events. The entire night ran smoothly with Jimmy's lead. He was so personable and quick to read the crowd and select the best song choices. We can't say enough good things. Thank you Jimmy for an amazing dance party! Words fall short of expressing what a great job you did at the reception! Not only did you keep the party going on the dance floor but you were so organized and your calm attitude put both Dylan and I at ease. We had so many compliments on how fun our dance was and how wonderful you were! Thank you for running a night we won't ever forget! We will treasure the memories forever!

Christi & James – FIVE Event Center – Jimmy B

Jimmy was amazing. He was such an awesome DJ. Every one of my guests and family members were raving about him. I could not have asked for a better DJ!!! It was perfect

Caroline & Ryan – Loring Social – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy was hands down the BEST! The dance floor was full the entire night. He went off of are play list and songs that we selected but also felt the vibe of the room and decided when to switch it up and change the song. If you are looking for a DJ for an event Jimmy is the guy!!!!! Great music and great entertainment! Made for a great wedding.

Courtney & David – Hutton House – Jimmy B

Very good and got only positive feedback about how fun the DJ was throughout our wedding! Thank you and I highly recommend using this DJ to anyone else getting married!

Amy & Jon – Hyatt Regency Bloomington – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy is amazing. He had incredibly creative ideas and was very flexible to work with. He had our wedding vision in mind and kept people on the dance floor the entire night. I wouldn't go with anyone else for any of our future events!

Annie & Kevin – Dellwood Country Club – Jimmy B

FUN helpful professional just awesome! If we could only repeat one detail of our wedding it would be booking Instant Request specifically Jimmy B. I did a lot of research before picking Jimmy B and I'm so glad I did. We knew right away at our planning meeting that we were in good hands. He was extremely helpful and overall fun to be around. The day of our wedding he was amazing! He did everything we asked and then some. He knew having a full dance floor was important to me and he made sure it happened! Jimmy was able to read the room and change the music accordingly. He thought about our older guests children and everything in between. We can't say enough about how much we loved having him. I HIGHLY recommend Instant Request but specifically get Jimmy B as your DJ!!

Annie & Matt – Wyndham Springfield City Centre – Jimmy B

Jimmy was absolutely amazing from the start all the way to the end. Website for picking out songs made our lives so easy and changing songs later on wasn't an issue. Would use for all my future marriages. (Hopefully not though)

Amanda & Rob – Vadnais Heights Commons – Jimmy B

I booked Instant Request DJ Entertainment for my wedding this past July. Mitch was great to work with and was patient with all the questions I had before booking. We were luckily enough to be assigned with Jimmy B as our DJ. He was INCREDIBLE. I think I truly lived my best life out on the dance floor. It was packed the whole time and he did such a good job playing songs that everyone loved. I could not recommend him or Instant Request DJ more. Truly made my wedding the most it could have been!

Caitlin & Joe – Hidden Meadow and Barn – Jimmy B

Instant Request was easy to work with from the beginning and very organized. Our DJ Jimmy B was amazing!!! He put together our ceremony music seamlessly even using a family piano recording for us. He created the best dance floor ever - it was full and non-stop until the end of the night! We had multiple guests tell us that not only was Jimmy B the best wedding DJ they had ever encountered but that we also had the best wedding dance floor ever! It was a perfect fun-filled night thanks to Jimmy - exactly what we had hoped for! Cannot recommend Instant Request or Jimmy B highly enough! Thank you for everything!

Allison & Martin – Mystic Lake Casino & Hotel – Jimmy B

We would 100% recommend Instant Request and mainly DJ Jimmy B. He read the room and kept the dance floor full the entire night. We received multiple compliments on how good the music was. We upgraded to the Black Tie DJ and got to meet Jimmy about 2 weeks before the wedding. It was great to get to know him and go through the entire wedding day in detail. We also upgraded our DJ booth to a white tufted booth last minute and we are so glad we did. Our dance floor was in the middle of our wedding and the booth made it look more elegant. We couldn't of asked for a better DJ. We danced the night away!

Caroline & Preston – Minneapolis Event Center – Jimmy B

From start to finish Instant Request did an amazing job and we are so happy with the final result! We had so many compliments about DJ Jimmy B from his music choice to the perfect level of DJ involvement! Their online Planner Tool was incredibly helpful as we planned out our day. We would definitely recommend them!

Ellie & Justin – Minneapolis Event Center – Jimmy B

Instant Request was great! We had DJ Jimmy for our wedding day and he did an amazing job! He made sure all of our requested songs were played. We definitely recommend this DJ group.

Abby & Gary – Pinewood Weddings And Events – Jimmy B

DJ Jimmy B was friendly flexible and accommodating the whole time we worked with him. He did an excellent job reading the room at our wedding and adjusting the songs accordingly. He played all of our music that we requested while throwing in some extras that were hits.
