Apogee Events's reply
I am disappointed that Brittney who never hired us rated us so poorly. She asked to drop our prices by 60% her wedding. We politely declined and she rated us a 2/5 here. I am happy to show anyone our messages and conversation that asks. This review is in no way a reflection of our service, as she never booked us and only asked us for a price drop.

Zach & his team at Apogee Events are fabulous!!! I HIGHLY recommend them for your event. Zach traveled 3+ hours for my wedding. He was early, set up his equipment & did his "job" - Exceptionally Well! Apogee Events offers an Online Database - Which allows you to request songs, for the first dance, gater toss, etc., as well as general songs you'd like played at your reception. This was AWESOME! It allowed us to add songs as we thought of them. It also has a Timeline Tab, which allows you to plug in when things are happening & include whatever notes you'd like. During the Wedding Planning Chaos, it was very helpful! I have had SEVERAL guests comment on how great my DJ was. He was super involved with the guests - He didn't just sit in the corner and play music! He was great about letting guests know when things were happending (Cake Cutting, Bouquet Toss, Etc.). He went above & beyond - He even captured some video & photos!!! I don't usually take the time for reviews - & I know this seems like the "too good to be true" review - But I was very pleased so I WANTED to! You will NOT be disappointed with Apogee Events!

Zach and Ryanne did a fabulous job at my wedding! Zach was the dj for my wedding. He is very professional. I love the online wedding planning tool. It made it so easy to select songs and create a ceremony and reception timeline. Zach made my wedding a fun dance party! He kept the wedding going at a good pace and my guests complimented me on my dj. Ryanne is a fantastic wedding planner. She is so sweet and helpful. She will do any task she is given, plus she has a great eye for decorating. Ryanne is professional, prompt and easy to get along with. I felt so much better about my wedding knowing that Ryanne would get everything done she said she would. Ryanne and Zach will go above and beyond for your wedding. I would highly recommend Zach and Ryanne at Apogee Events.

With our experience having Apogee Events, we found them to be exceptionally courteous, very well prepared, and altogether a fantastic deal. We hired Zach Thomas as our DJ already knowing the positive rapport he builds with each of his clients and how much effort he places into satisfying his clients’ needs. We had a very particular list of songs and arrangements needed for our wedding and he accommodated every request handily and even offered many useful and clever suggestions for how to keep things lively and fun all through the night. In addition to providing well-practiced DJ-ing abilities, Zach was able to even supply a mobile dance floor and a generator, ensuring that wherever the event is, the party can come too. We asked Ryanne Anderson to be our wedding coordinator three weeks before our event with nothing but the venue and the DJ selected. Ryanne was able to step in last minute and delivered on every detail from attending all final appointments to designing wedding favors. She stayed up every night for a week perfecting unique crafts to give our event a personalized feel that was entirely us. The day of the wedding ran smoothly and peacefully under Ryanne’s inspired management, allowing for us to enjoy the day to the greatest potential. The day truly could not have come together to meet our vision if not for Ryanne bringing our ideas to reality. Suffice to say that any event that we should need fun, helpful, and valuable entertainment for, Apogee Events will be who we call.

FAQs

  • Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

    Recently I received a call from a lady asking me to DJ for their charity Boys and Girls Aide. I did not know much about their organization at the time but I was truly blessed to be apart of an event that was able to raise a lot of money to help find homeless children families. They are a great charity and I look forward to working with them soon!

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    A good DJ will give you an honest quote with lots of references to back everything up. Be careful of "some guy" that just has some sound equipment lying around somewhere that you find off craigslist!
