Jake was awesome. Music selection and command of production makes all the difference at a wedding. Jake played all of our obscure and personally selected music effortlessly while managing a seamless production with the mic and transitions between toast. There is a reason we have five senses. Don't underestimate the power of having the right DJ at your wedding to handle both ceremony and reception and how hearing impacts the experience. Music moves the heart and mind and helps guests powerfully connect to you and your big day at the wedding. Steady Jake will get it done right with ease. So grateful our venue recommended him! More...

I was a guest at a destination wedding in the Jackson Hole area last weekend and Jake crushed it, he got there early and listened to the bride and groom's hand written vows and was able to incorporate some of what they mentioned into his acting as master of ceremonies. He played a cocktail hour, dinner and dancing and played the perfect songs for each. He announced toasts as well as the father-daughter dance and the mother-son dance. Immediately after the mother-son dance he invited everyone out on to the dance floor to start dancing and EVERYBODY in the whole place got up to dance. It was incredible! The transitions between songs were smooth and he played a great mix of 40's/50's for the parents, songs from when the bride and groom were in high school/college and modern (Lizzo). I also appreciated that he only played one Bruno Mars song. More...

DJ SteadyJake was the best! We hired him for our wedding after a recommendation from a friend. He did the music and audio for our outdoor ceremony and was great with coordinating audio with our videographer. He was on time and thought of everything, so there were no issues with set-up. For the reception, he let me use some market-lights of his, very generous! Jake was a great help in moving the night along according to plan, announcing toasts and dances. He played the perfect variety of music, getting all ages on the dance floor for several hours! What a great night!!!Thank you Jake! More...

We absolutely loved Jake as our DJ for our wedding at Lost Creek Ranch. He was perfect - great personality, on time, flexible, went above and beyond to make our night go flawlessly. Handled a difficult setup arrangement with grace and ease! He is an experienced professional who gave us great tips and suggestions. We were happy we followed his suggestions - they worked out great! We give him 5 stars, would give him more if we could but really really couldn’t have been happier having him DJ our wedding! Hire him before he gets snatched up! More...

Jake is the man! Really brought the party to our small wedding and made it feel like a professional event! He is more than kind and put in the extra work to make sure that we would have good music whether we were outside or forced inside due to weather. He is top notch and dresses the same! More...

Jake did an awesome job at our wedding a couple weeks ago! He helped with the ceremony and reception and made everything go super smooth. We did a destination wedding so we weren't able to meet Jake in person before the wedding, but he was really good at communicating with us every step of the way. Definitely knows how to keep the party going! More...

Outstanding! Jake made our event something special. Guests were talking about him weeks after asking how we found him. Amazingly talented, easy to work with, fun upbeat party!

DJ Jake was one of the true highlights of our wedding. Faced with a small wedding of 25 out of towners, ages 2-80, Jake kept everyone dancing through the evening with a perfect mix of songs. Beyond his well thought out music choices, we enjoyed his well-timed and thoughtful comments when transitioning between songs and speeches. We were never able to meet in person before the wedding, but his set felt personally tailored with the groom's college fight song thrown in. Thanks Jake for keeping the party going. More...

I had a destination wedding, and was so grateful to Jake Nichols with SteadyJake DJ for making it all so easy planning from afar! Jake was awesome to work with, and able to communicate via email to accommodate our time zone difference and my busy work schedule. About a week before the wedding we worked out my 'must have' songs, and also my 'don't play these' songs. The day of, he brought all the sound and lighting equipment appropriate for my outdoor ceremony and white tent reception. It went FLAWLESSLY! I wanted really upbeat music to keep the party going, and he definitely kept the dance floor crowded! Plus he was affordable and helped me stay on budget. I would highly recommend him to anyone getting married in the Jackson, WY area! More...

SteadyJake was a great addition to our wedding vendors! He worked very well with our planner and the venue to help create a wonderful wedding. He was very accommodating with our music selections and even found some specific instrumental music based on our request without any pushback. As a special touch, he recorded our entire wedding ceremony for us to enjoy for the rest of our lives. It is really magical to listen to that audio while looking through our wedding book. SteadyJake did a great job and was very professional and accommodating through the whole process. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ for a special event in the Jackson, WY area.

Steady Jake was the bomb. Seriously. He made everything so easy and stress-free leading up to our wedding and that night was amazing. Just perfect. I didn’t really care what music, I just wanted to dance and boy did i. My husband is very picky about the music and he was blown away. All the guests were. Hats off! More...

Don't even think about anyone else. I've been to many many weddings and this was the best DJ I have ever seen anywhere in the United States.
