WEDDINGS by DJP in association with:
DJames Productions & Grand Rapids DJ's
-----------------------------------------------------------
All information is below the photographs!
DJames Littell is the owner of D James Promotions & Productions!
The company began over 11 years ago when DJames was invited to host a series of TGI Friday’s Bartender Championships.
The championships are exciting events where bartenders compete for best bartender.
Many area companies donate items which are auctioned off along with the cocktails made by the bartenders.
All the proceeds from these events go to benefit Children’s Miracle Network and other local charities
such as Indian Trails Camp, AMBUCS, Paws with a Cause, and the Other Way Ministries.
Most recently, D James has worked on events such RAIL JAM & WAKE WARS downtown at the BOB,
2009 4th of July at Rosa Parks,
GVSU's President's Ball & Relay for Life, World Aids Day,
New Year's Eve at the Little River Casino,
Susan G. Komen fight against Breast Cancer, & Revue Magazine's Open Mic Finals.
______________________________________________
DJames currently holds weekly residencies at Nightclub Moxie, the SCORE, Gardellas,
and the "Brand New" Firekeepers Casino in Battle Creek.
We have chosen to avoid the way of the hula hoop, the tambourine, the sombrero hat, the chicken costume, and the inflatable guitar.
Instead, it has been our desire to play great music and professionally host and MC parties.
Over the past several years, we have been privileged to form relationships with some of the finest entertainment venues in Grand Rapids.
It has been wonderful to be able to participate at such venues as: the Gilmore Collection, Churchills Bar & Bistro, Nightclub Moxie,
Amway Grand Plaza Hotel, the JW Marriott,the Frederick Meijer Gardens, Applause Banquets & Catering,
the BOB, the Van Andel Museum, English Hills, St. Cecilia Music Society, the Grand Rapids Art Museum,
Brann’s Banquet & Conference Center, Blythefield Country Club, Egypt Valley Country Club, Cascade Country Club,
Wallinwood Springs Country Club, Sunnybrook Country Club, and the Penninsular Club downtown Grand Rapids.
It has been our pleasure to serve this community and we will strive to host and facilitate great parties for many years to come!!!

"James,
We can't thank you enough for being such a great DJ at our wedding & reception in September!
We had a lot of positive feedback from our guests about you.
You were great at reading the audience, and knew when to play certain songs.
Everyone had a great time! I especially appreciate your ability to stall time haha!
When I realized that I didn't have my garter on right before the toss,
you were so great at diverting attention and just getting people pumped up.
Thanks again for making our reception & wedding so much fun!"
- Bianca & Scott, Allendale, MI ( GVSU 2009)

James,
I have been trying to call you today to thank you for saturday.
We were dancing machines! I hope you dont think we were too crazy....
every single one of my friends that were at the wedding is still hurting from all the dancing and jumping.
People's hips, legs, and arms hurt. Hilarious!
You were terrific and if you would like me to write something for your page about the party I would love to!
Mary Zack ( Grand Rapids, 2009)

Finney,
Just wanted to drop a line to say thanks for doing a great job at our wedding reception on Saturday night.
Everyone had a blast, Stephanie and I included.
In the event that I ever hear of anyone looking for DJ services in the GR area I'll definitely recommend you.
Thanks again and take care.
-Travis Falconer ( Eberhard - 07/11/2009)

Hey Finney,
Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job as DJ at our wedding!
We had so many people say to us at the end of the night or in the following days that it was "such a great party!"
We couldn't ask for a better response.
Between your music selections and our ringbearer Ben's dance moves, everyone got out there and had a blast.
Thanks again for being there.
We had so much fun working with you!
All the best,
____________________________________________________________

Thanks for all your help with the wedding, I am assuming that you are not up yet, but if you are, then I expect that you will be up running marathons :)
I just wanted to drop a note and tell you how much fun we had, and thanks for not letting that guy free style and steal my thunder!
I wish I could have had my dance with my dad recorded!!!! That was fun!
Hope all is well, best of luck in your future endeavors!!!!!
Thank you ~

James,
My son attended the Bennink and Beiser Wedding last summer
and said you were the best DJ he has ever heard.
We are looking for a DJ to do my daughter Lesley’s wedding next summer 7/25/09
and we wondered if you might possibly be available?

We really can't say enough except that we were really blown away and feel so fortunate to have had you there!!!
Thanks again!

Hey!
I was snooping around the knot and I came across the following:
DJAMES PRODUCTIONS (GRAND RAPIDS, MI) A+ www.djamesproductions.com
What can we say about James...he was sooo much fun! We had quite the diverse group at our reception and he kept the place rockin' until the end of the night...He is very accommodating and if you ask him to play something (or not to) he is going to make it happen! His personality was so awesome and everyone had a great time...He was probably a little pricier that we had initially wanted to spend but let me assure you he was worth every penny and then some...our guests are still talking about our reception weeks later!
Talk to you soon J
Melissa (10/28/2008)

James, I wanted to drop you a line.
We see a lot of DJ's as we photograph weddings throughout the year.
I wanted to commend you on several levels.
First, your setup rocks! It is simple and not cluttered.
Second, the sound quality is great.
And third, probably most important, you have a great presence as you lead your events.
We have seen a lot of guys, a lot of blunders, and some just down-right funny mistakes from many others, but not you.
Truly, top notch! Excellently done on all levels!
Best Regards,
Dan & Jodi Johnson

James~
Just wanted to let you know that we had the best reception ever,
and so much of that was thanks to you and Brandon Hill, our dj that night.
Not only did you pull us out of a tight spot when our band canceled with absolutely no notice,
but the music ROCKED and everyone danced until 1am...
we are still getting compliments on the music, and the intuitiveness of our dj.
Definately exceeded our expectations, and we will continue to recommend you!
Thanks again!

We will recommend you to anyone we know getting married or needing a DJ for another event."

We also really appreciated how he took the time to talk to us and briefly go over the night.
Your company does an excellent job! Thanks for making our reception one to remember!!!!"

Hi James,
Just wanted to say thank you again for everything. We had a wonderful time. Sorry again about my crazy cousin.
I saw her in the morning and it was pretty funny. I don't think she knows how off the handle she really was.
I was wondering if you have "the man song" CD and the other CD someone gave to you at the end of the night to play.
If so, could you mail them to me? I need a copy of the man song
so I can play it to Steve and remind him what his role is when he gets out of line. Ha Ha! Well, maybe we will see you at another wedding. Thanks again!
Emily and Steve Korte (I have to get used to that) (2006)
