Klay is awesome!

Unfortunately we were unable to book with Klay for our wedding as he was already booked, but he still took the time out of his day to chat with me and offer recommendations on what to look for in a wedding DJ, when he really didn’t need to! He was super friendly and helpful and would recommend him on his personable service alone!

Klay did an amazing job as our MC and DJ! Even though we had never met before we felt like we had known him for years! Entertaining comes so naturally to him. Alot of our guests commented on how much fun he was and we loved how much he made us laugh and enjoy the whole evening!

Thank you for your review Cathy! I had so much fun! Your horse-drawn carriage ceremony entrance was such a nice touch, and the reception skit with you and Jesse was priceless! What a blast!

DJ services

We are so thankful we hired Klay to be the DJ for our wedding. He was absolutely amazing! We had multiple guests come up and tell us how awesome our DJ was. He was helpful throughout the planning process, he knew how to read the group and had everyone of all ages on the dance floor having fun! I cannot say enough good things about Klay. I would recommend his services to anyone planning a wedding or any event!

Jessica, I can sum this wedding up in one word... Awesome! Right from our face-time meeting, I knew that I was really going to enjoy this experience. The Lynwood Ranch was the perfect setting. You and Sean, your wedding party, your friends, and your family were all so easy to connect with. I think you entertained me more than I entertained you. Thank you so much for choosing me to be a part of it all.

Full value DJ! Amazing at working the room & engaging guests. Additionally we appreciated:
- Ability to coordinate other elements to create seamless overall event & production (MC, JP, photographer, event space etc)
- Consolidated services. Simplifies things! (photo booth, lighting, ceremony & reception, mics etc etc)
- Detailed & professional planning; the sequencing & flow of activities

To us, we found huge value in Klay's added services. He's much more than the best DJ we've experienced! Absolutely hilarious. We gained confidence and simplified things by working with Klay.

Our wedding was the 3rd event we've experienced with Klay Tate Productions.

We highly recommend Klay Tate Productions! True professionals.

Thank you Nicholas! What a pleasure it was helping to make "the dream come true" for yourself and Nicole! It is a true testament to how special you two are...when you have people travel all the way from South Africa ...and London...and yes, even Saskatchewan...to attend your celebration! What a great way to ring in the new year! Best wishes!

Klay provided an exceptional level of service to our family for our son and daughter-in- law's wedding! We chose to hire him to provide sound for the service, and to be both DJ and MC for the reception. In addition to his obviously well-honed skills (and modern, effective equipment) in all the technical aspects of his service, Klay is a master "connector". He took so much time and effort to completely personalize the entire endeavor, and the combination of his very quick, charming wit and amazing creativity ensured a smooth and very enjoyable reception. As we had an outside service followed by an inside reception, we were most grateful to have such careful monitoring of the the incredibly important aspects of sound and event "flow". The reception was well-enjoyed by our diverse group of guests, as Klay had many ideas which kept people feeling included and having fun. Klay has become part of our family's "history" with his awesome personality, impeccable service and complete professionalism. We loved both his DJ and MC service. Thanks, Klay!

Thank you Paighton! It was an absolute pleasure to be a part of your special day. Your wedding was a highlight in a time where so many things have been cancelled, and changed. It was a warm and wonderful gathering of family and friends at Pine & Pond. The venue staff and myself were chatting as we were packing up about how nice everyone was. Best wishes to yourself and Steve for an amazing life together!

Absolutely the best DJ in Central Alberta!!!

We couldn’t have been happier not only with Klay’s amazing DJ’ing skills and talent, but he also very much impressed us with his charismatic MC’ing abilities on our wedding day. We had numerous guests approach us during the night and even for days afterwards, letting us know how great he was and how much fun they had! Truly spectacular.
He read our crowd so perfectly, had great commentary, was funny, full of great ideas to keep our guests engaged, and even went the extra mile to help create our slide show for his big screen tv’s! I can easily say that the quality of sound, lighting, and his complete setup were all absolutely amazing as well. His knowledge, experience, and attention to detail make him far superior to his competitors.
We got so much more than we hoped for and highly recommend Klay Tate Productions for any special event. We are so excited to see him again for our cousin’s wedding this summer! Thanks again Klay for helping to make our day so wonderful!

Tyler and Lisa,
Thank you for these words! Your celebration was so important to me ... not just because it was New Year’s Eve ...but because you both were so incredibly invested in the outcome. You considered every single family member and guest in your planning. Your meticulous attention to detail was obvious from the decor to your thank you toast. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting with you both and planning your reception together. Best wishes for a bright and happy future! 🤓

Klay kept them dancing!

We met Klay at a wedding at the Pine and Pond wedding venue this summer. He was charming, an excellent host, and was able to read the crowd to perfection, keeping them entertained and dancing into the morning hours!

Klay is an amazing DJ. His personality is super up beat and positive. He got people up on the dance floor that I have never seen dance before in my life. The music cues to speeches was priclesses and added the perfect amount of fun. We also used the up lights that he provided and it made our hall look absoulty perfect. He was quick with responses to all of our questions and helped us get the perfect flow to the reception. We highly recommend him to everyone!

Thank you for your review Lisa! It was so much fun being a part of yours and David's celebration! Loved the sports theme! It was fun...but done with class! And we might have even set a new "Good luck train" record for Drumheller! Lol. It was a good night to be in the badlands!
