We are still in the beginning stages of working with 3rd Shift DJs, but I can already tell that Alex is a very professional individual. He takes great care and pride in his craft, and the service he provides to his clients. I’m looking forward to the event, and I am sure that I will have an even more positive and in-depth review once the event is concluded. We are off to a great start!

Alex and his team at 3rd Shift DJs were FANTASTIC!! Our reception was in Geneva at the Copper Fox on 3rd St. They worked around the setup of the our venue and found the perfect spot for both their DJ booth and Photo Booth. Everyone at our wedding complimented how great the DJs were. Perfect match for our celebration!

Alex and Michael were great to work with for our wedding. We communicated mostly with Alex during the planning stages, and he was amazing with helping us create our vision. We had Michael as our DJ and he did an amazing job; so many compliments from our guest. He was also so polite and professional and collaborative; can’t say enough good things

I’m so happy that everything went just as planned. There was a lot of planning that went into your BIG day. From pulling up in that custom Corvette, to dancing the night away! We were elated with excitement for you two! Please know that you have a friend here for anything you need.

We had spoken to a couple other DJs before speaking with Alex. It was a no brainer after that conversation. Alex was very quick to respond. He asked so many more questions and voiced ideas/concerns than the optional DJs we spoke to. He has a great vibe and I am beyond confident he will make our 'Happily Ever After' celebration a night to remember.
