DJ Jon Alder is the BEST DJ in RENO!!! We met him a couple years ago when he DJ'd a friend's 50th birthday party and had the whole house ROCKING! I have been wanting to use him since then and finally had the chance this weekend for my daughter's sweet 16 dance party at our house. I contacted him on short notice and he was SO responsive and professional from the get go. His price is very reasonable, he is incredibly helpful (even told me who to call for the best dancefloor rental) and really takes an interest in the event you are planning. Every time I texted him, he got back to me right away with answers and made my life easier. He sent us a document before the event so she and her friends could pick the music they wanted and it gave him a great idea of what they would like. On the night of the event, he showed up exactly on time (2 hours early) to set up and make sure he was ready to roll before the party started. He is calm, lovely and so fun. He even brought my daughter a special hat to wear from Burning Man! This guy's vibe is so chill and amazing you will love him. When the party started, the kids of course were slow to get dancing but he knew EXACTLY what they needed to get the party started. They all thought he was amazingly cool and loved everything he played. He offers DJ lessons and I know some of the kids were interested in that! He kept the party going for 3 straight hours without missing a beat and never let them down. At the end of the party, he packed up his AMAZING equipment and left the space immaculate. You will NOT be disappointed if you use DJ Jon--the DJ is the MOST important part of your party and this guy DELIVERS!!! We will use him again and again! read more

If you are looking for a DJ in Reno, look no further. Jon absolutely exceeded expectations at our wedding!!! From the very start, in the planning stages, Jon was extremely professional and outlined everything simply and relatable for us to understand. He even asked if there was anything extra (above and beyond) that he could do for us which was an awesome perk! Thru the whole process he showed authentic compassion for DJing and truly wanted to make our day the best it could be. The day of the wedding he showed up promptly when he said he would, came with everything he needed and even helped out our coordinator with other odds and ends which was extremely appreciated by all!! Lastly, and most importantly, his DJing complimented our wedding perfectly! From the introduction of the wedding party, to warming up the crowd, to seamlessly blending music together, we couldn't imagine a better DJ. Beside how gorgeous the bride looked, the next most complimented aspect of our wedding was the DJ!!! One of my favorite memories was when he came out from behind the DJ booth towards the end of the night and joined in on the dancing! Everybody loved it! The next gig I do in the Reno area I will definitely go to DJs in Reno!!! Thanks Jon! read more

Jon Alder was the perfect fit at Jeffrey and I's wedding DJ! He is probably the most laid back person I have ever met, but is still very on it, responsive, and organized. Jon even went out of his way to get to know us before the big event by inviting us out to a comedy show before the big day. This made things a bit more personal instead of a brief interaction the day of and money exchange via Venmo. Continually, Jon is very organized and had an easy shared google doc for me to put all of our song requests in. He is very responsive and will get back to you right away if you have any questions about any part of the process. Jon went above and beyond as our wedding DJ. He even asked us directly how he could go above and beyond the day of. I asked him to help set up decorations. He did this gladly and did a very fine job of it! If you want a Reno DJ who has a laid back chill vibe that is still on top of his game you found your guy. Five out of Five stars for this Reno DJ!!! Key Words: Reno Dj, DJ Reno, DJ in Reno, DJs In Reno read more

He had our guests dancing and singing all night. He did a great job MC'ing, and he provided all the equipment needed. One of our friends just kept saying on the dance floor "I don't know who this DJ is, but he's f*****g AMAZING". Everyone at our little wedding had so much fun.

Don't look any further.... DJs Reno is the one for your next event. I had a last minute corporate event and Jon stepped in right away. We requested certain songs and a genre and he was happy to accommodate. Then when the event was in full swing Jon was able to pick songs to get people up and dancing. I have never had a dj get so involved with the group they were playing for. He encouraged people to dance and showed them how some of the group dance went like the cupid shuffle, macarena, and other fun event dances. I can't wait for my next event to get up and going so we can book with them again. Sasha Bohdan Convention Activity read more

Jon is hands down one of the best DJs in Reno! My first experience with Jon was when he was DJ-ing a friends wedding. It was such a fun night! Jon kept the hits coming! Smaller scale due to COVID restrictions but felt BIG with the dance floor full of happy people! As soon as my fiancé and I had our wedding date picked we knew exactly who we wanted to DJ our wedding. We gave Jon our list of must haves (and some have nots) and he worked his magic for the rest. Very much would recommend this Reno DJ! read more
