Your Vermont Wedding DJ

Southern Vermont weddings trade ballrooms for mountains, barns, and ski-resort valleys: Brattleboro, the Okemo and Stratton areas, and the inns scattered through the Green Mountains. It's a backdrop that rewards an entertainer who keeps things organized as much as energetic, especially when the ceremony is outdoors and the reception is a tented or barn space. Southern Vermont is toward the outer edge of my service area, so I build in extra travel time and arrive early. If your celebration is in southern Vermont, let's start a conversation.

Local insight: Southern Vermont is toward the outer edge of my service area, so I plan for the drive and arrive early. Barn and tented receptions also take a little extra setup care, and I'd rather have the time in hand than rush it.

Areas I cover in Vermont

Brattleboro, the Okemo valley, Stratton & Manchester, the Green Mountains, southern Vermont.

Hi, I'm John

For me, it's seeing all the unbelievable moments happening before my eyes. Every single guest out of their seats, dancing, and celebrating all night long - that's what I live for.

For more than 20 years, I've been behind the decks at weddings, private celebrations, and events across Vermont and New England. No two events are the same, and there is no cookie-cutter approach. Your wedding, your music, your way.

Common Questions

Got Questions? I've Got Answers

How much does a wedding DJ cost in Vermont?

Wedding DJ packages at Elation Entertainment start at $1,699 for 5 hours, the same whether your celebration is in southern Vermont or anywhere across New England. Most couples choose one of four packages, from $1,699 to $3,299. A-la-carte options are also available.

Do you travel to Vermont for weddings?

Yes. I'm based in Shirley, MA, and serve all of New England within a 120 miles radius - Vermont included. There are no separate travel fees inside the standard service area; for venues toward the far edge I simply build in extra time and arrive early so setup stays calm.

What happens if equipment fails?

I bring backup equipment to every event - multiple laptops, multiple speakers, multiple microphones. In 20 years, I've never missed an event due to equipment failure.
