TESTIMONIALS
"We hired SSC Entertainment for our wedding and working with Shannon was the best. He scheduled multiple meetings to discuss expectations and was there for our venue walkthrough. He continually checked in with us throughout our wedding night to ensure we were enjoying ourselves. I am not sure what else one would want in a DJ."
Joshua
"Shannon is a very professional entertainer. Managed our bicultural wedding with ease! He was a great MC and was able to feel the crowd and play the right music. He went above and beyond by capturing some really cool action shots from the dance floor!
During the whole event he was responsive and communication was extremely easy with him.
Will definitely consider him for any future family events!"

We hired DJ Shannon for our anniversary party after seeing him at a wedding in 2023 and he was AMAZING. I cannot recommend him highly enough - he was fun, energetic, and was so in tune with what the crowd was doing and what was needed to keep the party going. He's the best DJ I've ever seen at any wedding or party, and if you don't hire him, you are missing out!

Shannon did a fantastic job DJ'ing our wedding! He was on point with the flow of the day, announcements on the mic, always making sure the bride and I had everything we needed, and of course brought the jams. We high recommend Shannon's services!

Absolutely impressed with DJ Shannon and the great music line up he played for our wedding! From our songs we picked for the ceremony to his music selection for the reception, everything was spot on. He was able to cater to all ages and tastes and seamlessly transitioned between songs and kept the energy high throughout the night. Shannon is extremely professional, accommodating, helpful and a true master of his craft. Our guests were dancing all night long, making our special day even more memorable. Highly recommend!

"Shannon is the best wedding DJ/entertainer that anybody could ask for. He helped consult us through music selection, speeches, and our even our itinerary for the evening.
To us, music and atmosphere were the most important details for our wedding and reception in Mexico, and Shannon nailed it!! It was the best wedding reception that I have ever attended and I’m very happy that it was our own reception. The dance floor was full the entire time! After the reception, many of our friends and family told us that Shannon was the best wedding DJ they’ve ever seen. It was an amazing weekend, and so much of that had to do with hiring Shannon and SSC Entertainment."

"Shannon was so prompt with any questions of ours throughout the process. He was always flexible with us. The day of the wedding was flawless. We had a handful of requests and they were all met. He must have asked me 7 or 8 times if I needed anything during the wedding, which was extremely caring. I’m not sure what anyone could want in a DJ that Shannon couldn’t offer. For some reason all the wedding DJs I’ve encountered always seemed like used car salesmen to me but not Shannon. I’d recommend him to anyone."

Beau G.
"Shannon was a true partner through this process and delivered the day of the event! He was very organized, responsive and provided suggestions. Not only did he keep everyone on the dance floor all night, but he was very attentive to managing the timelines for speeches, dances, etc. In addition he took late night pics on the dance floor which let us keep the party going and captured all of the fun, candid moments. We can’t speak highly enough of SSC Entertainment, we highly recommend!"

We recently hired SSC Entertaiment for our wedding, it was one of the best decisions we made. Shannon was a pleasure to work with. He knew the type of music that the guests wanted and was easily able to cater to that need, while also adding in his own flare that was simply excellent. Shannon and SSC Entertainment are a no-brainer hire. They are also extremely competitive with their pricing. Thanks again!

If you are planning your wedding, by now you realize how stressful the experience can be. Between juggling the venue, caterers, and other vendors by the time your wedding rolls around, you'll most likely be struggling to keep track of every detail. That's where Shannon comes in!
From our first meeting, Shannon was attentive to every detail and took a personal interest in ensuring that our special night went smoothly. Shannon valued our input and helped us structure and plan our wedding down to the last detail. Using our favorite songs, Shannon built a playlist that was enjoyed by our guests young and old. After the wedding, many of our guests complimented Shannon and his attention to detail and the selection of songs played during the wedding. Shannon also helped ensure that our wedding went smoothly, assisting the photographers, helping organize the procession, and even making sure that the bridal party was fed and had plenty of water during the event. Shannon truly went above and beyond and we were very happy with our decision to hire him for our wedding. If you are looking to take some of the stress and anxiety out of your evening while also providing an enjoyable experience for your guests look no further than Shannon.
