We could not have been more pleased with Jeff's performance DJing our wedding. His low-profile style made perfect sense during the reception, his graciousnesses towards guests with requests, his always-appropriate volume setting, and play list kept the compliments coming all night - and even after the event! Highly recommended.

Hi Cheryl,
 
Thank you so much for a terrific job last night!  You made everything easy-- From providing outstanding planning and advice for the music and activities for Krista's Sweet Sixteen Gala Masquerade;  from the start right up through the finish, the event was a complete success, all thanks to you.  You really kept things moving and fun. I was especially impressed how well you blended and balanced class and fun, especially for a group of sometimes surly teenagers.  The kids had a great time that they will never forget. 
 
Thanks again.

"Cheryl,

Thank you for your kind wishes.  It was a pleasure having you participate in our special occasion and we certainly appreciate the professional and efficient manner in which the event was planned and executed.  Considering that this was a 50th Wedding Anniverary Celebration, and the age range of the guests was 2 to 98, you managed to keep the party lively and get everyone up and dancing until the planned end of the evening. The one surprise was not having known that "Jeff and Cheryl" are not only a DJ team but happen to be related by marriage.  You should hire as good a DJ for your 50th celebration!

Again, thank you, Florence and Al Bernstein"  50th Anniversary Celebration, Vienna VA

It was our pleasure to have you participate! You were both exceptional to work with! And we wanted to say thank you again for not only the world-class service, but for the CDrom of our wedding music. That will provide long lasting memories for years to come.

Speaking of memories, I believe that our guests will have long lasting memories to come as well! Each of our guests made sure to express to us their appreciation for the musical selections and their pleasure with the arrangement of such. They - of all ages mind you - raved about the festive mood that you created. In fact, they raved about it not only the night of the wedding, but the morning after as well. We thank you for that! We wanted to create a fun and festive atmosphere; one to be enjoyed and remembered by all. Because of your hard work, it will be! Thank you again!

We would be happy to have any one or more of the above comments included in your web site! You both provided exceptional service and so we will forever recommend you to friends, family, and acquaintances because of such. Thank you again!

Another letter Sent to us on 11May'06
Today, in talking to Mr. Randy Olmstead, of The Perfect Truffle, I began to reminisce of mine and my husbands wedding at the Ceresville Mansion back on October 26th, 2006. And thinking back on it made me remember all of the wonderful people (YOU!) who made it the exceptional day that it was and who created the memories we, our friends, and our families will always have. As such, I just wanted to say THANK YOU again for not only your outstanding customer service, but for creating what was a gorgeous event! Our guests still rave about the beauty of the Ceresville Mansion, as well as the kindness of Jenny and her staff, the gorgeous flowers from John and Doug of Spot Floral and how they complimented the venue just so, the perfection of our cake from Duff and Mary Alice of Charm City Cakes and how it couldn't have been more moist and flavorful, the mood set by Cheryl Adams of Elan DJ and her transition between events, the on point photography taken by Glenn of Glenn Barnett Photography and how he managed to capture every angle of every detail, and the chocolates (who could forget the chocolates?!?!) from Randy Olmsted of The Perfect Truffle and how they were the perfect close to a perfect meal and evening. We couldn't have chosen a better team to execute all of the details of our wedding day! You folks made our day what it was and what we'll always remember! You manage to, day in and day out, deal with the most complicated of customers and requests and yet you still manage to execute all wishes flawlessly! YOU ARE TRULY OUTSTANDING WEDDING PROFESSIONALS. And for that, I thank you. I thank you for all of your hard work and behind the scenes effort at not only our wedding, but all of the weddings you service!!! You are all exceptional!!!

We managed to get everything timed just right and everyone loved the show. I even gave some people your name and number. I appreciate all your hard work and I can't thank you enough.

My biggest concern with the reception was having a variety of music that our diverse group of guests would enjoy.  Yet, your planning script, as well as professional and personable demeanor, certainly put those worries to rest.  You did a fabulous job integrating the various musical genres and the music flowed well.  The guests appeared to have a really great time and were kept moving on the dance floor.  I would highly recommend your services to anyone!

Thank you so much for all of your help on our wedding day!  I had been worried about a dj because of "cheesy dj" stereotypes but everything Cheryl did was elegant and understated and I was very pleased.  Even through a few hiccups (catering's fault, not Cheryl's!) she was helpful, friendly, and professional.  The music during dinner was just the right volume, and then we all had fun dancing afterwards.  Cheryl helped make it a wonderful evening! 

Thanks again!!

Hi Cheryl- WE definitely enjoyed the reception!

The music and reception planning by Cheryl and Jeff was amazing.  They prepared a lot, even picking the song for the groom's dance with his mother (a Bolero).  We did not create a playlist and we were very pleased with all the choices that Cheryl made- it was a great mix (a very eclectic mix of Cumbias, Bachatas, Boleros, Reggaeton and American pop).  They are both professional, proactive, and very enthusiastic about what they do.  The jazz during dinner was very classy and Cheryl pronounced our names correctly at the introduction- a big plus! (half the wedding party originally from south and/or central America)  They definitely provide first rate service.   We couldn't have asked for a better reception! 

Take care- it was so good working with both of you!  Kate and Jose Manzanares (kparsil@yahoo.com)

That's a high compliment from him, I can assure you of that. Mike and I loved how easy Elan-DJ was to deal with and your helpfulness, attention to detail, and professionalism throughout the entire process was so refreshing and made you a joy to work with. Hopefully there won't be another wedding reception in our future, but you will come with the highest recommendations to any of our friends getting married in the DC area.

Hi, Jeff

I have not been to an affair with a DJ in quite awhile and I have to say that it was very tastefully presented. I am used to the old bulky equipment sitting around, so I was quite pleased with the modern technology that was used for the event. Awesome presentation!

 I have received compliments all morning regarding the event, so it was a great success thanks to Cheryl playing great music. The music selection was very appropriate at every part of the evening and it certainly encouraged the employees to dance. They were disappointed when the evening ended.  I will certainly keep your card on file for future events. Great Job!!!

Take Care, Karen

Just wanted to let you know that Walt did an awesome job.  My (professional wedding) planner, Jean, had much more contact with him and she said that she also had a positive experience working with him. He played many of the specific songs from my list and each time I stopped and noticed I was turning to Roy saying, "this song was on my list!"  I was very pleased with that.  Also, he was very low-key and only spoke when the itinerary noted that he was supposed to or when he was asked by Jean to make an announcement.  Overall he did an awesome job and I was very happy with his music selections.

Thanks for everything!

I write with great enthusiasm and appreciation a recommendation for Élan-DJ.com    As I was planning for my October 2005 wedding I feared hiring a DJ, as I have heard over and over again that the "DJ makes or breaks a wedding reception." When I spoke with Jeff Adams, he assured me that Élan DJ was a sophisticated and professional DJ service. He guaranteed me that Élan DJ was dedicated to providing the type of wedding reception that the bride and groom wanted. I was looking for a DJ who would play music, introduce evening events (i.e. dinner, toasts, first dance, cutting the cake, etc.) Prior to our wedding reception, Jeff and I created a detailed timeline of events for the reception and he made recommendations based on his vast experience with wedding receptions. We were thrilled when Cheryl, a highly professional and extremely poised DJ, was the DJ at our wedding. She came prepared with the all music we had selected and had some additional music she felt was appropriate to each musical set. The dance floor was packed all night! Guests of all ages looked as though they were having a great time.

In addition, we were grateful for Cheryl, as our outdoor wedding reception was a complete mud pit under the tent due to torrential rainfall that week. Cheryl was a trooper in her galoshes and I feel she was the key factor to our memorable wedding reception. Many needed to be reminded of the miserable weather conditions and mud due to the fun atmosphere of the reception. I give all credit to Cheryl!

I highly recommend Élan DJ and Cheryl, as I feel Élan DJ's services are top quality and their customer service is outstanding. Should you have questions, please feel free to contact me at 703-864-1780.

Sincerely,
Leslie McCleary

Hi Jeff,

Pete and I would like to thank you for all you did to make our wedding memorable. We were impressed with how organized you were from the very beginning with your event planner that tied everything together. Once we gave you all of the information for the events of the reception, you took over like a true professional and ensured that the evening proceeded as planned. We were free to enjoy our wedding reception. Due to the 'somewhat older' crowd for a second wedding, our friends were not dancing as much as we would have liked, but we received glowing compliments on how tasteful and enjoyable the music was that was played.

Thanks also for 'going the extra mile' and helping us out by playing our ceremony music and for the play list CD you sent us, which was an added bonus. Pete and I would be happy to be a reference for you, especially to those couples looking for an experienced, dependable, organized, professional DJ that can cater to all ages. Thanks again.

Cheryl did an excellent job - she was great at being flexible when we needed it and moving us along when we needed to stick to a schedule.  Even though the Mansion's dance space was not optimal, Cheryl was an expert getting people dancing.  She was very professional and struck exactly the right balance with the wedding party and song introductions.  I really appreciate her willingness to stick to the suggestions that we made and to avoid the songs that we didn't want to hear.  I heard from a few cousins that they requested the "chicken dance" (yuck!), and was so glad that we didn't have to watch the all of the relatives (dancing to it).  Finally, we were so excited to receive a CD-ROM with our song choices and we look forward to listening to it again and again! Overall, you're an excellent team and I'll recommend you to all of my friends.

Hi, Jeff!!

What a kind and complimentary email! We had an absolutely wonderful time at our wedding and reception! Our feet were killing us the next day - in a good way... Thank you again for your contribution to our reception - couldn't have had that much fun without you! I was surprised to hear that you thought we were easy to work with, as we were so choosy with our music, but I'm glad to hear you thought so anyway! We're pretty laid back people - we just love music and are pretty particular about it. You were so incredibly accommodating, fun and professional and we again, appreciated working with you. There was a part of me that was almost surprised to see you at Chateclaire! When we chose that secluded place, we sort of wondered if we would be the only people to show - ha! I instantly fell in love with it though - so much character and charm I think...
Talk to you soon and thanks a million! I'm going to tell all engaged buddies/co-workers about you.

A special thanks to our very 'special DJ' Jeff Adams. I know he worked with Katie and Vikas to present a program that they would be happy with, and they were, as evidenced by the great celebration on the dance floor!! We didn't have to urge anyone to get up and party---it was a happening!! Starting a reception off with spectacular music will be the next wedding "fad"---who needs food!! Seriously, we witnessed a very professional and very well prepared program, and we thank you for it! ...the sound system, it proved to be the only way to go!
