Four the past four years we have had Janie sing and DJ at our New Year's party and each year she has delivered an amazing experience!! This year Nate took it to the next level bringing wireless speakers on all 3 levels of our home. The live music, with Janie's amazing voice, is mesmerizing and the dancing energized by Janie and Nate's song choices was a blast!!
From Mike L. 12/07/24
Janie and Nate did an awesome job with the dance party at our wedding. They truly DJ'd - as in they played 2.5 hours of cleverly mixed and interwoven hits from all genres requested. No putting on a Spotify playlist and walking away here! Janie also took the time to create a custom mix for our first dance song, which kept that performance shorter and sweeter. They were a detail-oriented, kind, and fun pair that added a lot to our big day.

We hired Janie as our DJ for our reception in September (2024). She was the best! She played the music we had talked about, MC'd the reception wonderfully and sang a song beautifully. All of our guests had a wonderful time! We would highly recommend hiring Janie!

I had the pleasure of meeting this wonderful husband and wife DJ team to discuss the music details for my wedding. I found them to be well organized and very professional as well as having just great personalities! Nate and his assistants did a fantastic job at the wedding (Janie had another DJ engagement) and their music selections for the wedding reception dancing were just superb. Everyone enjoyed the songs immensely. I would highly recommend this DJ to anyone looking to hire for their special event.

Janie Lee and her husband Nate are AMAZING. If you want a DJ who is organized, communicative, and SUPER TALENTED, look no further because Janie Lee is it!! We attended a friend's wedding where Janie Lee was working and had a blast but what really sold it for us was Janie Lee's fabulous singing!
From the beginning of booking her to the end of our reception, she was so easy to work with. She always answered all of our questions quickly and was so prepared with all the chaotic moving parts on the big day. She and Nate are such kind people who really know their craft well. We are so thankful for them and for their help making our wedding so magical!
From Becca J 07/06/24
As a wedding photographer, I've had the pleasure of working with many DJs and MCs, but Janie Lee Kelley is truly exceptional. She runs a tight ship and keeps the reception events hyped and running smoothly. I always strive to make the most of my clients' time during the reception by minimizing lulls between planned activities so we can get to the dance party sooner. Janie was Johnny-on-the-spot with ensuring the reception events were announced and coordinated efficiently, which made my job so much easier.
One of the standout moments was when Janie performed a special song for the group, called the Friendship Dance. Growing up in a musical family and having pursued musical theatre professionally, I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to live performances at weddings. Her buttery smooth and sweet vocal stylings while singing Frank Sinatra absolutely blew me away. It was a magical moment that added a unique touch to the evening.
Janie and Nathan kept the dance floor packed all night by playing the couple's favorite songs that perfectly fit the vibe while still being exceedingly danceable. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was impressive.
10/10 would recommend Janie Lee Kelley DJ & MC for any wedding or event. She truly knows how to create unforgettable moments!

Janie was the DJ for my wedding and was so helpful in having her figure out all of the sound system gear for the ceremony, speeches, music, and dancing. she was easy to communicate with, flexible with the different things we wanted to do, and great at setting the mood with her music selection.
I totally recommend Janie!
From Kathy C 12/18/23
We hired Janie to DJ at our holiday party, after another party planner recommended her for our outdoor company picnic 18 months ago. For both, she was great! Janie has a fun personality and was spot on to keep our holiday party on a timeline without the party feeling "structured." Janie was always responsive when we were in the party planning stages, which was so helpful. Planning party and dance music for people from age 25 - 65 could be hard, but all ages got on the dance floor. Thanks, Janie!
From Brooke F 9/14/23
JANIE IS AMAZING!!! I do not have enough nice things to say about Janie. Janie and Nate were the DJs for my wedding and they made the day so perfect, I could not imagine having anyone else. From the first call I knew that I was going to be in great hands, she answered all my questions, was quick to respond through the entire process, and offered some great advice to help my vision for the day based on her expertise. Communication was always easy and stress-free. I never had to worry about Janie, I knew that she had everything under control. My guests loved the music and it was a fabulous flow all night long. Not only does she craft music for any occasion she can SING, and oh my goodness she can sing. We requested her to sing while our wedding party walked down the aisle and it was the most beautiful thing, it made the day so special, it just warmed my heart. Don't give anyone else a thought - Janie is the only choice if you want to have the best for your event, she will make it perfect!!!!
From Lauren R. 9/11/2023
Janie was our wedding DJ and absolute amazing! She got the party started and kept it going all night long! Highly recommend having her perform a song, she is an amazing singer! Janie is able to cater to any specific needs you have an helps to make your day amazing!
From Michele L. 08/25/2023
We hired Janie for our wedding in Monroe, WA this past August and she was absolutely wonderful! She was so communicative and prepared leading up to our special day and she made us feel so at ease. She even helped steer us in the right direction when we were unsure about a few things. Our venue was outdoors with several different areas across the property, so she went above and beyond to set up 3 different stations around the venue to ensure that we had the best experience where ever we were throughout the night. Our guests loved her and raved about her talent on the mixing table AND her amazing voice! We had her live sing our first dance and it could not have been more special. If you are looking for someone who loves what they do and really cares about your experience, look no further than Janie!
From Emily H. 08/13/2023
THE BEST WEDDING DJ!!!
We are so grateful for Janie and her husband for creating the best dance floor experience for our wedding day. They did such a great job reading the crowd and picking songs that would keep people engaged. Many of our guests said that this was the best DJ they'd ever seen. Not only were the Dj services above and beyond but she also has a beautiful voice. She sang our first dance live and did us a huge favor in the process. Hire her! You will not be disappointed.
From LeAnne S. 08/07/2023
Janie is the sweetest and easiest to work with! we used her for our wedding and it was a blast - all thanks to Janie!
From Kyle T: 7/27/2021
We are grateful that Janie was able to DJ our wedding! She was absolutely amazing. Throughout the planning process she communicated with us and kept us up to date, listened to our requests; and then at the event she made everything so smooth! Everyone LOVED the music. We are still hearing from our guests how much they loved the dancing. They also loved the shoe game Janie led too -- glad we decided to do it! Janie has such a great announcing voice and that really helped with transitions and moving the event along. We can tell that she is incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to music and we had the best time. She remembered every cut off we had for the first dance and parent dances, and perfectly faded them out. Janie definitely went above and beyond for us! Songs never ran on for too long. This DJ knows how to set things up and use appropriate music whether it is ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner time, or dancing time! She is also open to doing song requests from every generation so each of our family members were pleased. She really connected with the audience. Our wedding would not have been the same without her!
From Joana G: 10/28/2021
We really loved having Janie as our wedding DJ! We both love music but we're not that particular about certain songs. With Janie's help, we narrowed down what our important songs were and then we let her have creative freedom on the rest. She did a great job keeping the party going with a mix of our genres (classic oldies rock and modern country). And she definitely took to heart my favorite and not so favorite songs even when they were communicated very last minute.
We really appreciated having her as an MC throughout the day to keep people organized and the day flowing smoothly. Then when it came time to dance, the party lights came out and it was a blast! My only complaint was that the songs were so good it was hard to leave the dance floor to socialize with my guests!
We highly recommend Janie for you DJ needs!
From Jack S: 8/11/2021
We are so thrilled that we found Janie ,the singing DJ, to be part of our wedding. She is packed with talent, professional, on top of her craft, and most of all down to earth. Up until the wedding, she was easy to reach and responded to any questions in a timely manner. This definitely took away a lot of wedding planning stress that we may have had. She was also super accommodating, for example, the night before the wedding, I was able to send her a couple of traditional songs from my culture that could only have been found on YouTube, and without hesitation, she said she can incorporate it, and she did! On the day of our wedding, the music she played was on point. The volume was at the right intensity when it needed to be. What I find most impressive about Janie, though, is that we didn't give her a playlist so that she can just push play, she's a DJ after all. Instead, we gave her what I thought, not enough songs of what we like, and she took it from there and listened to the crowd and played exactly what needed to be played. To end the night, we had her sing a song, yes she can sing! We knew she can sing, but omg, you have to hear her sing live. Janie if you ever have a concert anywhere in the area, we will totally be there! Thank You Janie for being a part of our wedding and making it the best it could've ever turned out! Much Love from the newly weds =)
From Laura S: 8/23/2020
Janie is AMAZING!!!! Her experience and passion for music shines when she DJs!!! She did our wedding in August of 2020. From start to finish she kept our guests beautifully up-to-speed and involved, our schedule on time with elegant announcements from bouquet toss to the send-off, provided newlywed games, sang a beautiful song (STUNNING VOICE!) and let's not forget she personally walked us through picking each song for all of the special moments throughout our wedding day!!!
From K.J: 7/17/2019
Janie was amazing! She created a playlist of songs that had us dancing the night away and played to the likes of both us and our guests who were able to request songs. She even let my hubby surprise me by having my cousin sing one of my favorite songs using her mics. We had so much fun and the shoe game and anniversary dance made sweet memories for us all. She rolled with the unexpected events, kept us on a timeline and kept everyone moving and grooving, having a blast! We would definitely recommend Janie to anyone looking for a DJ for any event.
From Jakoeb V: 12/17/2018
We needed a DJ for our organization's holiday party and Janie Kelley fulfilled all of our expectations. She was very professional and accommodated all of our needs. She travelled out of her way to get to our location and was flexible with our specific organizational needs.
Janie really helped us run this event of 300+ people without any problems. She did a great job getting people out on the dance floor and keeping up the energy. Multiple times we added in games or changed up the schedule and she had no problem accommodating us!
Highly recommended, Thank you!

BEST DJ EVER.
Janie Kelly was the DJ at our wedding recently.
She was absolutely amazing, professional and punctual.
She played every song that i asked of her and on time. I had a lot of demands and she was willing and able to meet ALL of them. She has an outgoing personality and was not afraid to get on the mic and help coordinate events like the bouquet toss and all the personal dances. She stayed well beyond the time we asked of her and just continued to play great hits while we danced the night away. She is incredibly knowledgeable of all genres of music, names of bands, different eras of music and even helped my husband and I choose some songs for our wedding. Everyone at our wedding was impressed by her skills and her personality. This is definitely where Janie excels in life and shines with her talent. We were honored to have her DJ our wedding.
Ps: she also sings and her voice is simply angelic that is no joke. I would absolutely, hands down recommend Janie to anyone looking for an amazing DJ. Whatever, the event may be.
From McKenzie P: 9/6/2017
Janie was so wonderful to work with!! She helped set the mood and the timeline of the whole evening. Planning a wedding can be stressful and the music can make a break the whole mood. I created a rough playlist of songs from different genres and she built on that and made it all cohesive. She is a fun and light-hearted person and we truly enjoyed and appreciated having her at our wedding. Janie helped make sure everything was on time, the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, the cake. It was nice having someone there keeping things on track. We love Janie!
Also her mom's BBQ for the rehearsal dinner was delicious - kelleysbbq.com
