Shannon was very responsive when I reached out for a DJ on Thumbtack. I was very impressed with his professionalism. He provided all the information and details I needed to feel comfortable with the price I would be paying. Although I could not use his services this time, due to not enough guest attending our 12-24 party. I would definitely call him for my next party. He is very down to earth, kind and experienced which I really appreciate. He has several DJs working for him. I wanted a DJ who could play Latin and regular 80s music. He had just the DJ for me already to go. If you read the other reviews you can see he is just the kind of DJ one would want to hire. Thank you, Shannon for taking the time to listen to my needs and set me up with just the right DJ.

DJ Domingo went above and beyond to create a happy, fun, and engaging experience! (Not an easy feat with half of my family not really up for dancing.) He got everyone out on the dance floor and everyone had such a wonderful time! And working with Shannon (who was unable to DJ on the day, and which he informed us of well before the big day) was so fluid and easy. He really helped guide the way for planning the progression of the music and fun little activities.

I really appreciate working closely with you leading up to your wedding day and apologize for being unable to attend due to a medical reason. I knew Domingo would be an incredible DJ for you.

Hey Everyone, I wanted to take a minute to thank SKA Entertainment for a job well done. We recently had a 60th birthday celebration and SKA Entertainment made the party a success. From the beginning of taking the time to explore what package to use, To viewing the rental space, to the execution of the event everything was flawless. Shannon was personable, professional, Kind, caring and all Around amazing. SKA Entertainment brought such a fun positive vibe to the party it made everyone feel comfortable ready to dance and sing. All of our guests Had the time of their lives and had so much fun. Shannon went above and beyond to personalize the event and make the birthday party special. He made an amazing slide show, then asked the questions of how has the birthday star impacted all of our lives. This created the most intimate birthday experience. I would highly recommend this DJ and will only use them for any other future Entertainment events. Sincerely, Karen Jeffery-Wheeler

Worked with Shannon and Alberto for our wedding this past weekend. And 10/10 would recommend going with them as they were sooooo easy to work with throughout the entire planning process as well as day of. They're definitely seasoned DJs who know how to make your dreams come true (from announcements to maintaining timeline to music selection and sound quality). Plus they have planning tools for your event that really make the process seamless :)

SKA Entertainment was contacted last minute due to our previous DJ cancelling. DJ Shannon quickly reached out to assist with services for the wedding reception. We had 72 hours for him to get prepared and ready for the event. DJ Shannon arrived early to the event, even before someone could open the door. By the time the wedding party and guests arrived, the music was cranking. Great music all night and even took requests. DJ Shannon and SKA Entertainment saved the day! I would highly recommend him. Thank you again and again!

Details: Wedding • 50 - 99 guests • 18 - 30 years old • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • R&B / soul • 80s • Latin • Top 40 • Pop • Hip-hop / Rap • Outdoor venue

There is always a little trepidation when there’s a last minute event! We understand that these things happen. I’m so glad we were able to step in and rescue your wedding reception! What a great group of people and an amazing family you have. Thank you for hiring us! I’m glad that we exceeded your expectations.
