DJ Mitch Entertainment

08/04/2025

Mel and Don were one of the first supporters of my business back in 2021! I always looked forward to DJaying weddings at barns of lost creek because they always checked in with me throughout the day and even helped me load stuff out at the end of the night. Was very sad to hear they were selling over the winter but I am very glad Steve and Ann have stepped up to keep this beautiful property alive and well!

Always an honor to DJ a friends wedding! Thanks so much Sam and Taylor! Man do you guys know how to throw a party! Dance floor was on fire all night!
This wedding was in Illinois which means I only have 45 states to go until I’ve Djayed in every state!

This photo means so much to me! On the right is Brandon and Ali with their two sons. On the Left is Danielle and Charlie who got married this past weekend. Brandon was my roommate in college (also a saxophonist) and I asked if I could DJ his wedding in 2019! I had no idea what I was in for and he let me do it. He rented speakers and a microphone and I just brought my controller and a laptop. No lights. Just me on the mic and DJaying. Two years later I started my own business DJaying weddings. And 5 years after Brandon’s wedding, his wonderful Sister Danielle got married this past weekend to Charlie. They saw me DJ my first wedding and knew they had to book me for their wedding. I’ve done about 150 weddings since that first one and it’s so awesome that even that first one went well enough to book me this one! Both these couples mean so much to me! It went fantastic and I hope I can DJ for their family again . :)

What is the Job of a Wedding DJ?

Over the past five years and 150+ weddings, my view of what it means to be a wedding DJ has evolved significantly. Each wedding has shown me more of what can go wrong and why my role is so crucial.

When I first started, I might have had a simpler view of the job. Today, I understand that my job is about crafting magical moments and bringing people together.

Many DJs might get a bad wrap because they think their job is to show up, play a few songs, make some announcements, and have a good time. Some couples may believe they're just hiring someone with equipment to play music. While that might be true in some cases, my approach is different.

I aim to execute special moments perfectly and create other magical experiences throughout the day with the tools and talents I've been blessed with. I may not be the best DJ, emcee, saxophonist, planner, audio technician, or hype man individually. However, I believe I am skilled in all these areas, and when combined, they enable me to create magical moments on each wedding day.

As I approach three years in business at the end of this month, I have been reflecting on the changes I've undergone and the evolution of my business. There’s a reason saxophone is now included in all my wedding packages. There’s a reason I invest in a planning app and limit myself to around 20 weddings a year instead of 30-40. There’s also a reason my rates have doubled since I started. I value what I do, and I believe my services are the X factor in making weddings successful.

In the coming months, my brand will be undergoing some changes. I’ll be getting a new logo, a new business name, and possibly more. DJing is just one aspect of what I do, and I’ve outgrown "DJ Mitch Entertainment." The name for my business should reflect all the skills and services I offer.

"Mitch Rand Entertainment" encapsulates everything couples and their guests receive and more. This is why I will be changing my business name over the next few months!

Such a great time at Alex and d’Artagnon’s wedding last week! It may have rained for the ceremony but that did not stop the party!

My first wedding of the year was at Wild Ridge Golf Course celebrating Robert and Lisa! This was a great first wedding of the year. I even got to play saxophone for the grand march! People traveled from all over the country and there was even people watching online in Norway!
