    The Best DJ we could ask for!

    David Smyth was INCREDIBLE as our wedding DJ! He truly exceeded our expectations from beginning to end. From the very beginning, his organization and ...attention to detail made the entire process as stress-free as possible. The online portal was incredibly user-friendly, allowing us to customize our playlist and timeline with ease.
    David had some fantastic ideas that elevated our celebration and really showed us the benefit of choosing a DJ with years of experience and expertise. On our day, he ensured everything flowed seamlessly and stayed on schedule. He kept the energy high, created the perfect atmosphere for a really fun dance party, and the music was spot on. I truly attribute how fun our reception was to David. Highly, highly recommend David/Shindig DJs for your wedding!

    Fantastic and One-of-a-Kind!

    I used David Smith from Shindig DJs as my wedding DJ and do not have enough good things to say about him! When choosing a DJ for my wedding I was look...ing for someone who is fun, outgoing, organized, and knows how to keep the party going. David is all of these things and more! He made sure to listen to my every need and went above and beyond in helping create incredible custom remixes so that the special dreams I had about doing a mother-daughter dance and unique wedding party walkout came true! He's a wonderful collaborator and coordinated with my saxophone player so that the music and timing of my ceremony songs and walk down the aisle came out exactly as I envisioned. He has beautiful uplighting and an amazing sound system, which we couldn't stop getting enough compliments about from our guests. He was always punctual and made sure to arrive early to make sure he had plenty of time to set up. (This really came in handy when he helped us calm our nerves by letting us practice our first dance in my dress while the vendors were still setting up!) He was always quick to respond and available to chat when I had questions. His extensive background in this industry was greatly appreciated and apparent as he had many insightful suggestions on how to create a smoothly flowing reception timeline while keeping the dance floor going. He knows when to play the right songs at the right time and most importantly advocates for what you want on your special day. And may I mention--he has a spectacular deep voice that stands out in a room packed full of guests! I would recommend David Smith to anyone looking for a extraordinary DJ for you wedding and can't appreciate his hard work, dedication, and expertise enough! Thank you David!

    DJ Shindig MADE our wedding day!

    DJ Shindij (David) DJ'ed our wedding in June and surpassed our expectations by going above and beyond for our day.

    We'll start off with saying tha...t guests obviously pay attention to the dancefloor more than any other responsibility a DJ might have. We have had MANY conversations with our wedding guests where they bring up the DJ saying things like "oh yeah and the DJ was amazing!" or "How did he just keep playing great song after great song!?" so that is OBVIOUSLY what you want to hear about from your guests afterwards as one of their favorite things because the dance floor is a big part of the fun!

    All that being said, we knew we made the right decision when we were able to have multiple meetings with him leading up to our wedding. He did a great job in those meetings leading us in a way we were comfortable when we did not have all the answers for how we wanted our wedding day to go. It was clear he's done this hundreds of times, so he guided us through our decisions where we needed them on things we didn't even think about like what music to play during reception and dinner.

    On the day of the wedding, we were blown away. My wife and I just didn't realize leading up how big of a role the DJ may play in our wedding (outside of the dancefoor). David did a great job with all of his announcements for dances and speeches and of course for all the ceremony music as well.

    As for when it came to dancing from the bride and groom point of view: it was expected that he would get to all of the songs we listed as "must plays" but we obviously were not sure how he would mix around those. He absolutely killed it! He did an amazing job keeping people on the dance floor and playing other songs that people loved to hear that fit in with our provided set list!

    He was incredibly professional, while at the same time he clearly was enjoying himself and took pride in making our experience the best it could be. And we had an amazing wedding day that David was a huge part in not only making it run smoothly, but really a fantastically fun event!

    Thank you David!

    from Meghan and John

    Absolutely Incredible! 100% recommend

    We recently had our wedding on April 20th 2024. We used Shindig Djs and had the opportunity to have David himself as our DJ. Let me tell you David did... not disappoint. The dance floor was electric the entire evening that we had him up until the very end!

    Our venue was in the mountains just outside of Idaho springs. The drive to get to the is quite the trek and of course it was snowing. We never heard any issues from David on making it to the venue. When we arrived David was already set up and the venue was completely decked out in lighting and to make the atmosphere even more immersive.

    During the ceremony there were absolutely no issues with sound or connection issues. The toasts went off without a hitch. For the dances I made it complicated and had David switch between multiple songs for my mom and I and he did it perfectly.

    The dancing is where the magic happened. David did an incredible job with the song set and would read the room very quickly if there wasn't a good vibe with a song and would perfectly transition to the next song. This barely happened as he knew exactly what he was doing.

    I highly recommend David and Shindig Djs to anyone who is having a wedding or really any event! I can see why they are so highly recommended and reviewed!

    Thank you David & Shindig DJs!

    We were introduced to David because the original DJ we reached out to was already booked for our big day. And we are so glad we got connected! David w...as very personable yet professional from our first call/email through our big day. During our introduction call we all were laughing and having a fun time – just on a video call! If it was that enjoyable to talk with David on a call, we knew he’d be even more entertaining in person for our guests. The planning stage with David was incredibly easy and he made sure all our favorite songs/requests were played during our reception! Throughout the entire process David made sure all our questions were answered and we were ready for our big day – especially for our dances. He helped us brainstorm how to handle the Father/Daughter & Mother/Son dance – something we had been somewhat dreading. Day of, David did his thing – he was set up where he needed to be throughout the event and kept the timing of the evening on track. We are very thankful for all of David’s help during our big day! Our guests enjoyed him as well!

    Shindig DJs are the BEST!

    No question who we would hire! It was Dave Smith and Shindig DJs. He did not disappoint. He was the perfect MC for the evening, and kept the fun go...ing during the reception! Fun, great DJ voice! The process to hire was easy. His planning with our daughter, the bride, and the wedding coordinator were perfect! The music was fun, the night was full of energy and everyone had a great time, and lots of compliments for Dave!

    If we could give more than 5 stars we would!

    We recently tied the knot and had the pleasure of working with Shindig DJs, specifically the talented David Smith. Right from the start, David's profe...ssionalism and dedication stood out. He perfectly understood our musical preferences, blending classic hits, modern bangers, and even some unique, personalized tracks that held special memories for us.

    David's ability to read the crowd ensured the dance floor was always buzzing. From the ceremony to the reception, the ambiance was spot-on, with guests constantly praising the sound quality and song choices. Moreover, David's infectious energy and joyful interactions added a special touch.

    In short, if you're looking for an unforgettable experience with attention to detail and a DJ passionate about their craft, we wholeheartedly recommend David from Shindig DJs. Thanks for making our day memorable! Five stars aren't enough! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    The Best Experience!

    If I could give David 10 stars, I would. Even prior to our wedding we were so impressed by his professionalism, promptness, and kindness throughout th...e process. Our music taste is a bit off from the norm, and he absolutely nailed it. We requested bluegrass background music for our cocktail hour and dinner, which wasn’t even one of his genre options, and he managed to put together an amazing bluegrass covers playlist that got so many compliments from our guests because it was so good. He kept the party and announcements running super smooth, and then for the reception, he played all of the songs we had requested and more, and kept the dance floor full with all of the music that we and our friends love to hear. Couldn’t thank him enough and would recommend him 100%!

    Absolutely Fun DJ!

    Working with Shindig DJ's and David could not have been a better experience. He had prior experience at the venue we chose and knew everything we need...ed to get the best value for his services. Beyond the DJ services going flawlessly at our wedding, David was incredibly personable and welcoming to work with. You can tell he has a genuine passion for music in general and made every step of the process actually fun!

    I would recommend Shindig DJ's for anyone in Colorado.

    Best Dance Party!

    I really enjoyed working with David for our wedding. From the beginning, the process was so easy, but also very thorough. David makes certain he know ...exact versions of songs that you want, has the entire timeline figured out so that he doesn't miss a single cue, and worked with our other vendors to make sure everyone had mics and know where to set up equipment.

    On the day of the wedding, everything was seamless. All of our guests kept making comments about how great our DJ is and that he has the best announcer voice. He made sure everyone who made a speech knew exactly when and where they needed to be. When it came time to the dancing, it was truly the dance party of our dreams. It had all of our favorite party songs and I could not stop smiling the entire time. The songs were in the perfect order and mixed together so well. I would recommend Shindig DJs 100 times over!

    Excellent DJ experience

    David did an amazing job! He was also flexible with us through two postponements due to COVID! I highly recommend him. I will be using him in the futu...re for work related events as well. He also does local trivia nights which are so much fun!

    Great Reception DJ

    David was such a wonderful DJ! We had a reception at Bigsby's Folly and he made the night so special. David kept the party going with fun music and co...ol lighting. I highly recommend the up lighting upgrade as it really made the whole venue come to life. Highly recommended Shindig DJs, LLC and I plan to hire them for any events in the future!

    Incredible Experience from Request to Cleanup

    I truly cannot express in a written review how amazing the experience was working with David. He came highly recommended by our wedding venue and afte...r I contacted him over email, we heard back right away and had a quick phone call about what we wanted. When we had to reschedule everything due to COVID, he was so prompt in responding and getting everything moved asap. They use a web portal to get all the information he needs (What introductions will they need to make? What setup is necessary? What songs are must play/do not play?) and then we had a quick video call a bit before the event to clear up everything on both sides. He was so casual and flexible with all our interactions and a professional through and through. Plus he has a quintessential DJ voice so he must have been born to do it! The prep work was outstanding but obviously the big question is how things went on the big day. I've had no fewer than 10 wedding guests tell me how impressed they were with the DJ. When do you ever hear that?! There was somebody on the dance floor for EVERY. SINGLE. SONG. No joke. David mixed it up so well for the different ages and kept the energy perfect all night.

    Shindig brings the party, for sure!

    Not too long ago I saw David and Shindig DJ's at a dear friends wedding and was blown away by the high quality of his services. He had a small setup a...t the tiny 100 year old church for the ceremony and then somehow, when our wedding party arrived at the private home for the reception, he was already there with a full setup! He puts in some serious prep work. David is such a personable and professional person as well. His booming voice was made for this kind of work. Hopefully he's on the mic at the next wedding I go to! Shindig is a true hidden gem in the Colorado wedding industry.
