DJ Daniel Scott

Thank you for making last night so much fun! You guys did an awesome job! We have had a lot of people tell us how amazing our DJ was. Really appreciate it! Happy New Year!

REVIEWS

DJ Dan was so much fun! He had a lot of great ideas including fun games to play to release tables for dinner. His energy kept the party going and everyone was commenting on how fun he was.

REQUEST DAN! You won’t regret it!
I cannot use enough words to describe how awesome Dan was for our wedding. Our biggest request was to keep the dancefloor full for the duration of the reception, and Dan exceeded our expectations. Our guests were so happy with the music played and danced the night away. Dan was professional, kind, and very good at his job. From set up phone calls to the ceremony to the reception, he was on point and very organized. REQUEST DAN if you want the BEST!

DJ Dan killed it at our wedding! The music was 1000% exactly what we were looking for and he kept our dance floor full ALL NIGHT LONG. A ton of guests stopped us to let us know the music was the best they had heard at a wedding in years. Dan’s energy was phenomenal and fit right in with our group. We will definitely be using him for any future events.

My husband and I are very happy with our choice in hiring Rusch Entertainment. Dan was extremely professional with great communication. We were hesitant in still having a DJ after so many changes with our wedding and with our downsizing. Even with the changes they were extremely flexible and took some stress away. We ended up having a smaller backyard wedding and we are so thankful to have Dan with us! He kept things running smooth and on time. The music was perfect and just what we wanted. He had everyone dancing all night. Highly recommend having them as your wedding DJ!

Hi Dean,
I want to thank you for providing an excellent DJ for my daughter’s wedding.   I appreciate all that you did to work with me on price, as well as accommodating our need to relocate due to COVID-19. You are the best and will keep you in mind for future events and referrals. God Bless you all and keep safe.
Thanks, Penny Johnson   

Hi Dean,
Dan was wonderful to work with! He did a fantastic job rolling with the punches! I look forward to working with him again in the future.

If you’re looking for a DJ, it’s Dan! A genuine guy that is there for you and wants everything to go smoothly while you’re having fun. Whenever we went to him with a request he was all ears and always kept the party going. Our day was perfect and he was a big reason for that!

Dan was our DJ and he was absolutely amazing! He was very attentive to our needs, friendly, organized, and knew how to get people on the dance floor. My husband and I were so thrilled. Well done!

Thanks Elizabeth & Brad  

 

Dan was a pure joy to work with. A genuinely nice guy, he did a great job of catering to our (slightly unusual and very diverse) taste in music. He also did a great job as an MC, and even asked for little details about each member of the wedding party so he could say something about them as they entered! He was thoughtful and continuously checked in with us when he had a question, such as whether to play a certain requested song he wasn’t sure we’d like.  We had people dancing from the very beginning to the very end – everyone from the kids to the grandparents. Super professional and a fantastic experience.

Hi Dean,
Dan was fantastic! He showed up early, consistently communicated with us throughout the day, and made great music choices based on our preferences. Thanks so much!

Amazing!!! Guests were raving about how amazing our dance party was all night. Thank you to Dan and his partner who were incredible all evening. They met with us a month before the wedding to go over all of the logistics for the big day. They coordinated the music and set up for the ceremony, they emceed the entire evening and did an amazing job. The timing was perfect all night and they stayed on schedule the entire time. I really appreciated how thoughtful they were with our music preferences — my husband is Indian and they mixed in a bunch of Indian songs that we sent to them prior to our big day. They were so thoughtful with requests that I had all evening. Honestly, so many people were coming up to us and complimenting them. Please don’t pass them up as DJs for your day. There are too many brides I know who have awful experiences with DJs, but you won’t go wrong with Dan Scott and his partner. Thank you, Dan! Without you guys, our wedding would not have been nearly as good as we dreamed it!

Dan was AWESOME – Perfect cocktail music. Dance floor was packed from start to stop. Made their night so much more special. Dan was a blast. Photobooth girl was a blast. Longest married couple dance was great.

Dan was AMAZING! We cannot say enough great things about him! He was flexible, entertaining, worked with the crowd and had a good flow of music the entire night. Truly a job well done!

Dean, I just wanted to say we really enjoyed Dan as our dj at our wedding. He was great and we got lots of compliments. Thank you for working with us.
Thank you, Jennifer  – Tullymore Golf Club    

Wow it was perfect … couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. He (Daniel Scott) was polite and very accommodating!

Hi Dean,
I can’t thank you enough for sending such a wonderful DJ for our wedding reception! Dan was everything I expected and more. You could definitely tell he had been doing this for years, and NEVER once did I question what he did or how he did it. I have to mention one instance where I think it really shows Dan knew what he was doing. He had started to call up guy volunteers for a game that we were about to play, but we didn’t have the blindfold. So while I went to go grab it, he had them do the YMCA. Everyone in the crowd thought the boys had planned it and thought it was hilarious. Talk about being quick on your feet! He didn’t just stand there waiting for me nor did the guests go “whats going on?” The entire reception went so smoothly and it was so energetic! Anything my husband and I had wanted for the reception he knew exactly what we were talking about or made sure to give us advice on what might work better, and I tell you what, I am so glad I listened to everything he suggested! I could go on and on about how fabulous Dan was, but I’m sure you are already aware! Thanks Dean for all of your help and THANK YOU DAN for being a LARGE reason why our reception was AWESOME!

Hi Dean,
I would like to thank you and your staff for making this part of the wedding planning process so incredibly easy.  From start to finish, everything was fantastic!  The ceremony and reception planning forms covered details that I would have never even thought of.  Our DJ, Dan, was amazing!  He called to check in with us and review our planning forms in plenty of time before the actual event.  As we made little changes to our ceremony and/or reception during the final week, he went with the flow and adjusted everything for us.  We had some hiccups come the wedding day but the minute Dan stepped in, everything was back on track. He really put my husband and I at ease.

We kept it pretty open to types of music we would like played and had Dan fill in what he thought would best for the cocktail hour, dinner, and later in to the reception.  Not only did he meet our expectations, he exceeded them.  Our friends and family are still talking about how much fun they had out on the dance floor!  We really can’t thank you, Dan, the rest of your staff enough for helping to make our wedding the best night of our lives!  We will definitely be recommending your company in the future! Thanks so much!

Dan was wonderful and everyone had a great time. Thank you for checking in! The day was perfect and from the ceremony, during the cocktail hour, music at dinner, and dancing at the reception….Dan was awesome and everything went fantastic. He made it fun and we received a lot of compliments on the entire day. Thank you again!

I originally booked another DJ however after hearing negative comments I decided to change vendors and hire Rusch. Rusch helped me out in numerous ways, 1. they gave me a great deal since I had lost out on my deposit with the other company 2. they gave me an awesome DJ, Dan! We had so much fun with Dan, we couldn’t have asked for a better reception! The dance floor was packed (literally) all night. Our venue actually had to ask him to finally stop playing because it was so late and our time was up there 🙂 The banquet manager told me ” I have never had a dance floor this packed this late”! Rusch is the way to go, you won’t regret it, that’s why they’ve been in business so long. Thank you Rusch and Dan Scott specifically!!!!!

He (Dan) was perfect.  He kept the party going and helped with the flow of events. Thanks for everything!
Another Happy Client!

Thank you for booking Daniel for our wedding at Knollwood Country Club. Dan did an awesome job at our wedding reception! We couldn’t have been more pleased. He ended the evening with a clip from our “first dance’ song. He played our requests and requests from guests. He was flexible and very easy to work with.
A Happy Bride at Knollwood Country Club

I met Dan at my brother’s wedding and saw him again for my cousin’s wedding a few weeks later. As my husband and I were planning our own wedding at the time, we noticed the great selection of music Dan had as well as how he kept the guests engaged and entertained – but not in an over-the-top, tacky way that we had witnessed at other weddings! We actually contacted Dan to DJ our wedding, but decided to let a friend who dabbled in DJing do it instead, thinking we could save some money. This is one area that should be left to the professionals on your wedding day! Our friend called us the day before the wedding to let us know that there were problems with her music library, so my husband spent the day burning CDs for her and then creating a list so that she knew what music was located where. This created a lot of stress and hassle when we already had things to wrap up before our big day. Turns out that the difference in price was only about $100 – something I would have gladly paid to have everything run smoothly! If I could do it over again, I would certainly have hired Dan instead.
Rebecca from Michigan

Dan DJ’ed a MS Dance for me and he did a fantastic job. He was very wise in choosing appropriate music for the age and used a wide variety of selections. In the three hours the dance was going on I didn’t hear the same song twice. He took requests and even interacted with the crowd. I will be using him in the future!
Spencer A. White

Hi Dean,
Dan was an awesome DJ! He did a great job of “reading the crowd”. He played exactly what we wanted and played plenty of requests. He was flexible, to arrange things around to accomodate the timing of us arriving. Overall, he did a fabulous job, I have nothing but great things to say about him! If I even needed a DJ for an event I would definitely ask for him.
