"Joe was very professional, and not at all cheesy (which was a trait we had seen in numerous DJs at other weddings we had been to, and something we wanted to avoid). He was also very accommodating of following our "do not play" list, and trying to fit in the many many song requests both we had as the wedding couple, and that our guests had submitted. He seemed to be able to read the crowd well, and make sure to play songs that would keep both the 20somethings and 50+ crowd on the dance floor. He also was accommodating in mixing both a slow and fast song for the father/daughter dance, and in splicing a techno song for our bride/groom entry. Overall, we would recommend Dionne Entertainment to anyone looking for a wedding DJ in the Portland area!!"

"Paul Leclair was the DJ for our September wedding this year, and I would recommend him to anyone! He was amazing, from the time that we first met with him to begin going over song choices to the very last song he played at our wedding reception. He was incredibly professional and genuinely excited about his job both times that we met with him prior to the wedding day. His confidence and attention to detail made us feel relaxed and comfortable about our big day. Even when I was being indecisive and making changes to song choices the day before the wedding, he didn’t mind at all! On the day of the wedding, he DJ’d our ceremony as well as the reception. He knew exactly how to pump up the guests before the bridal party introductions and kept the energy going the whole night. His original ideas for the bouquet toss and garter toss were the talk of the night and had everyone laughing. Several of the guests came up to us that night to say that it was the best wedding they had been to in a long time – I believe this was mostly due to Paul. He is absolutely fantastic, and anyone who chooses him for their DJ will not be disappointed!!"

"When we were deciding on our wedding date, there were two factors we were taking into consideration - is our venue available, and is Joe Dionne available to DJ! He was the DJ at our close friend's wedding, and we just loved how he was fun (without being too "look-at-me"), organized, accommodating, etc. - he knew how to read the crowd, and he is absolutely a professional. When it came to wedding DJs, we knew we wanted someone who knew what they were doing, but also would be willing to use our input for music requests, etc. as guidance. Joe was that perfect combination."

"Dave! I can't sing your praises enough. We have been to a lot of weddings lately and we know how important it is to have a good DJ. Dave you blew us all out of the water. Looking back at all the pictures was such a great experience. It really shows us how good you are at your job. My family and friends danced the whole night and people that we've never seen dance before (and there were a lot) were out there dancing. People came to us afterwards and said it was one of the best weddings and best parties they've ever been too. We had the best time. Thank you for being so good at what you do and for making our night one to remember with full of laughs and epic dance moves. Dave I will recommend you again and again. You're the best!"

"Our wedding was on August 6th in Ogunquit, a very popular tourist area with family as far as Denver, Minnesota, Maryland, and as close as right in Ogunquit! He was able to get everyone on the dance floor! We had such a blast and the music was just what we wanted. We actually broke the dance floor... Twice!! Who would have known we could fit 100 people on the floor and move nonstop. Bob was thoughtful, played what we wanted, played security guard so we could eat at our own wedding. He was truly the best! We would recommend him with 100 stars if we could."

"Larry, sorry for the delay in my response! Tim and I went up north and stay at our camp for a while after the wedding. It was a much needed break after all the madness! But, now we are home and happy to be returning to normal life again. We want to thank you so very much for your flexibility, professionalism and the fantastic job that you did! It was hot and so many things had gone wrong or changed at the last minute. But the most important part of all that is after 9 years of dating, Tim and I are finally married!!! You helped make all of that happen for us and you were truly a breath of fresh air! The first time we spoke on the phone I new we were in the best of hands! We can not thank you enough! I also plan on posting a review on your website.....Thank you again!"

We were very please by how he played music that was appropriate for all age groups and made the measly 1.5 hours of dancing we had available at the wedding the most fun 1.5 hours of our lives! He also made announcements that were on time and appropriate"

"I am overwhelmed with how amazing Dave Dionne did at our wedding!! Upon first meeting him, and checking out his accomplishments, I almost thought he was kidding with how much he has done. He absolutely was not! I was semi-late to the ceremony, but I heard he handled the processional very well with keeping the song going! He played every single song I requested and kept our guests dancing all night long! I couldn't have asked for a better DJ! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for entertainment for any event! Amazing!!"
