Anyone been to an event where either of these DJs were playing?

Hey Barrie!!

My fiancé and I are in the process of trying to hire a DJ for our wedding. We’ve gotten quotes from and have meetings scheduled with two Barrie companies - Keep Them Dancing and In The Cue. Both have good reviews online and are in our price range, which is awesome! And they’ve both been great & responsive over email. Meeting them both will definitely help us with our decision, too.

But I’ve never seen either company in action! So here I am. Has anyone been to a wedding or other event that Keep Them Dancing or In The Cue played at? Reviews online are awesome, but I would love to hear from anyone who’s seen either company play an event and hear your thoughts.

If no one has, it’s all good, but figured it was worth a shot. :) Thank you!!

Keep Them Dancing has done our last few work Christmas parties. The dude had Spotify in addition to his normal playlist, so there really wasn't a song he couldn't play.

I am in a similar position as you and we are using http://www.bobhawkins.com/ mainly because he was recommended by our venue, but has excellent reviews and years of experience

Thanks for the name! One of the companies we’re looking at comes recommended by our venue, but it has multiple DJs and we won’t get to know who our DJ will be until closer to the wedding, which makes us nervous. The other has never worked at our venue, but is independently owned and has great reviews. I am having the hardest time figuring out the DJ thing! I’ll check out Bob Hawkins. Good luck with your wedding! :)

You should contact Sharpshooters in Barrie as well. They can do it all from DJ service to bartending and serving as well. They were great for us!

I’m a wedding photog and I’ve worked with Keep them Dancing... the crowd we had weren’t that into dancing and I’m just not sure if he could have controlled it or not. The venues dance floor was in an awkward spot. He was nice, good on the mic, and had all the right gear! Hope that helps a bit
