-Tim McGraw & Faith Hill

“Music was such an important part of our day and we cannot thank DJ Russ Pollard enough for bringing great vibes and keeping our friends & family on the dance floor all night! Russ supported sound from the ceremony through reception and never missed a beat. Would recommend Russ for any wedding or event!”

- Anne Rice 2026 bride

“My husband is essentially an aviation DJ for a living, and we have friends who own sound companies, so music was important to us for our January 2026 wedding. Russ DELIVERED - I am not a dancer but I was on the dance floor all night! He seamlessly took our key songs and then kept the dance floor packed all night for everyone! I cannot recommend Russ enough for any of your DJing needs”

- Hannah Carrico 2026 Bride

“We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Russ—he absolutely made our wedding!

From our very first phone call, he was so enthusiastic, incredibly kind, and made us feel genuinely cared for. He is a consummate professional who truly understood our vision and delivered above and beyond our expectations.

Music was one of the most important elements of the night for both my husband and me—we both absolutely love music—so finding the right DJ really mattered to us. Russ exceeded every expectation!

From start to finish, the music was incredible. We’ve never been to a wedding where the dance floor stayed full all night, and somehow Russ made that happen. The most consistent compliment we’ve received from our guests has been how amazing the music was from beginning to end—we couldn’t agree more.

He brought the perfect energy all night long and knew exactly how to read the room and keep everyone engaged.

He was also so supportive and flexible throughout the process. We had a live band moment and our own microphone setup, and he helped us navigate all of it seamlessly. What could have been stressful felt easy because he had everything under control.

One of the biggest highlights of the night was the record spinning—so many of our guests are still talking about how unique and fun that was. It added such a special, personal touch to the evening, and we’re so grateful Russ made it happen.

If you’re looking for a DJ who is talented, professional, and knows exactly how to create an unforgettable atmosphere, Russ is your person. We are beyond grateful he was part of our day and truly couldn’t recommend him more highly!” - Victoria Shaffer 2026 Bride

“As a wedding coordinator myself, who has coordinated over 500 weddings, I know a good DJ. Russ, is THE BEST DJ. So it was no question who we would hire for our own wedding. Our wedding was 7 months ago and this morning another person said how our dance floor was the most bumpin' wedding dance floor she's ever seen. That is thanks to Russ.

Not only does he have fabulous musical taste and knows how to read the room, he is a consummate professional. Through the whole planning process, he listens to his clients, cares for their insight and he truly wants to provide the best experience for every single event.

I also threw a LOT of curveballs at Russ- adding all sorts of wild elements into the reception and he took them all with stride, grace and I know he worked overtime to make it all happen. He collaborated with a saxophonist I wanted to jam over his music. He collaborated with a friend DJ I wanted to play a set, he made my dad's dreams come true with our Father/Daughter dance mash-up. All the way, a true gem of a human.

I'm so lucky that I'm in the industry and I get to work with Russ over and over again. Every time is a joy.

Russ made my dance party dreams come to life and I was lucky to have him at my wedding!”

-Lauren Schaefer Goodner / The Get Together

“Russ was great to work with from start to finish. The experience was like a friend with really good taste putting together the night for you. He curated the cocktail hour and dinner music from his personal vinyl collection. It was intentional in a way a regular playlist never could.

When it came time to dance, he read the room all night, brought the energy, and the dance floor stayed packed.

We also found out at the last minute that we'd need to rent a table for his turntables, which would have been a budget hit. Russ found out and built something at home to cover it. That kind of thing says a lot.”

-Tyler Oswald 2026 Groom

“As a wedding planner, I have worked with Russ several times. Russ is by far one of the best DJ’s in town! He is so laid back and can read the crowd like no other. From kid songs to old school jams to current hits, he is the best at playing exactly what you and your guests want. If you want an amazing party, Russ is the one to hire.”
-Ashley Porter 2026 Planner

“Russ was wonderfully accommodating and communicative throughout the planning process. His taste in music is as exceptional as his fashion sense. He is easy to talk to and I loved his inclusion of /option to play vinyl. Run, don't walk, to book him for your wedding/event.” -Kate Peidzwol 2025 Bride

“Russ was the DJ at our wedding, and he absolutely crushed it. He brings a calm demeanor and plenty of experience to handle anything. He kept the crowd dancing and even let my son hang next to him for some of the evening. 10/10.” -Daniel Meigs Groom 2026

“Russ is who you want as your DJ for your event. He knows how to read a room and play exactly what it needs. He is calm under pressure. And he shows such care and intentionality to the people he is working with. If you're looking for someone who knows how to make a party a great party then book Russ.” - Olivia Graham Bride

“DJ Russ is awesome. He knows how to keep everyone on the dance floor and chose the best music for our reception. He kept the whole wedding going smoothly from the start of dinner to the send-off. All interactions with him were very simple and clear, something a bride loves when a wedding can be so stressful. Thank you Russ for making our day so great and being so easy and fun to work with.” - Lizzy Vasuta Bride
