Aran was great! He was thorough, friendly, well versed in his craft, & communicated regularly. He ended up getting injured prior to our wedding. He informed us in a timely manner and had a solution ready. He kept his commitment and brought an assistant to support him during our special day. He was prepared to bring everything needed. We contracted him for our Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, and Reception. He was professional, on time, & everyone loved him!

The process leading up to the wedding was super easy with Aran! He was super open to the music requests we made (which was a bit all over the map) and when it came to the night of the reception, he did an excellent job adjusting the pre- thought out plan to what our guests were really vibing with. He played a really great mix of music and we got lots of compliments on the mix of music! We had 1 electrical problem during the event (not Aran's fault at all), but he handled it as smoothly and professionally as it could be (in fact many people told us they didn't even notice it happened). By the end of the night, the dance floor was full and people were definitely having a great time! We would highly recommend Aran!

My husband and I hired Aran Keating, from Ridiculous Entertainment, to DJ our wedding this past October. He did a fantastic job! He was very helpful planning out the timeline when we met with him weeks before the wedding. He was super easygoing and took time to listen to what we wanted. We sent him playlists and he definitely played what we asked him to. Things got a bit behind schedule at the wedding just because and Aran did a great job getting things back on track. Aran clearly has experience and is very good at what he does. I would highly recommend Aran!

Aran was a gem. Our reception was outdoors and he nailed it from the sound quality to the setlist itself. He was extremely responsive as we were planning the event and had great suggestions and input throughout. One of our fears was a hokey "radio DJ personality", and Aran was the opposite of that. He was polished, professional, friendly, and did everything in his power to make sure that all of our guests had a great time on and off the dance floor.
We still get compliments and we're so glad our memories have a perfect soundtrack thanks to Aran. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone who wants fun, fantastic music and good vibes at their party.
