    Added such an element of class and elegance to the reception!

    Our daughter and son-in-law did most of their wedding planning themselves. My husband and I LOVED the DJ team, of Kelly and Susan Howe, that the couple chose! Kelly wore a suit, and Susan wore a dress. That doesn't seem like a big deal but it just added to their professionalism and the elegance they brought to the evening as the DJ and emcee team! They were so attentive to the bride and groom and both we, as parents of the bride, and the groom's parents, asking if we needed a refill on drinks, tending to our every need, emceeing the night's events with such brilliant ease and classiness. WOW! I couldn't wait to give them a glowing review, hoping that others will read the review and say "Howe Weddings: Music and Lighting" is the team we want for our wedding! The price was right and I understand from my daughter that they were incredibly easy to work with during the planning process for their wedding reception. I can't say enough good things about them! When our son gets married someday, I'll definitely recommend to him and his fiancee' that they use "Howe Weddings: Music and Lighting". It'll be the crowning touch for a beautiful, fun, elegant reception!

    Best DJ/Event Team in KC!

    Howe Weddings was everything we wanted and more! They are a great team as Kelly kept the early events moving and then the dance floor packed the entire night! Susan was great behind the scenes and she handled everything from orchestrating the cake cutting to speeches to the first dance and even stitched up a bridesmaid's dress! You won't find a better DJ/event team in KC!

    Grateful to have chosen this awesome team!

    Kelly and Susan are excellent to work with! We wanted to create an experience for our guests at the reception, and Kelly and Susan had the ideas and the equipment to make it happen. Susan worked with us to create personalized aspects to bring uniqueness to our wedding and reception. They were always available for planning meetings with the all our vendors. Our highest compliment is that the flow of events (i.e., wedding party arrival, blessing, toasts, cake cutting) throughout our intricate, 4-hour reception was facilitated/directed flawlessly by Kelly as the Master of Ceremony. Even the count down to the New Year's Eve Spectacular for "ringing in of the new year" was fun and lively because of the brilliant DJ'd music selections. Beyond what we can say, we are most proud of the Facebook comments left by our guests about our very special event. Kelly and Susan guided us through the entire process, and for that, we are grateful for having chosen this awesome team! We thought their packaged services were very affordable compared to other quotes. Their added touches surprised and delighted us when we arrived at the reception. Kelly and Susan know how to deliver big results.

    Everything we could have ask for, and MORE!

    Kelly and Susan were so much fun and a blessing to work with! My husband and I initially were searching just for a DJ when we ran across HoweKC. But, to our surprise that's not all they do! Susan coordinated and made sure that we had absolutely nothing to worry about the day of the wedding. Kelly and Susan were easy to contact and were always willing to meet and help us answer any questions we had. I can't say enough wonderful things about HoweKC, as they made our day even more special than we could have imagined. The music was great and just what we asked for, and our day was stress free. I highly recommend HoweKC for any event and/or wedding!

    Couldn't ask for a better team!

    Kelly and Susan were amazing! They really went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was perfect! They have thought of everything and when I say everything, I mean it! They brought up so many things during the planning process that we would have never thought of down to carrying our food back to our table for us so that we didn't spill anything on the way back and had our hands free in case we got to chatting along the way as well. Kelly and Susan communicate through the whole thing so that everything runs like a well oiled machine! Susan always made sure everyone was where they needed to be and Kelly was an awesome MC and DJ and kept the dance floor moving all night! The up lighting they brought truly transformed the room into a beautiful reception and we really believe that our day would not have gone as smoothly without them. They even ran our rehearsal as our officiant was a friend and had never done a wedding before and that was so helpful. We love Kelly and Susan and highly recommend that you use them!!

    Excellent experience with Howe Weddings

    Kelly and Susan were fantastic to work with. When we hired them as the DJ, didn't realize we got an experience wedding planning team. Susan professionally directed the wedding party thru their responsibilities and paces. Cannot think this wedding would have gone off as smoothly without them. As the father of the bride, I am very appreciative of their efforts and give them a HUGE high five for a job well done

    The BEST DJ in the kc area!

    Wow! I can’t brag enough on the Howe wedding team! Kelly and Susan did an absolutely amazing job and made our big day simply perfect. Our guests are still raving about the reception and how much fun it was. Kelly did an amazing job on making sure our music was just right while Susan made sure all of the logistics went smoothly. My parents greatly appreciated their help in making sure everything ran smoothly so they could simply be parents of the bride. Our guests loved the custom photo booth and the outdoor lawn games were a huge hit! I’d book them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend them to anyone planning a party.

    The best of the best

    I could go on for days about how great Kelly and Susan are! They know exactly what they are doing and how to make a wedding run smoothly. I credit them for how perfect the day went. Susan made sure we stuck to our timeline but I never felt rushed. Kelly kept everyone on the dance floor and no one wanted the party to end! I think everyone should use Howe weddings, you will not be disappointed!!

    We could not have been any happier with our decision to have Kelly and Susan as part of our big day! They were so easy to contact and coordinate with before, and they made sure everything ran perfectly at the reception. Not a minute was out of place, and they kept us calm and running smoothly all night. They even worked with our parents to plan a huge surprise as part of the reception and still managed to keep everything on schedule! Once we arrived at our reception venue, I didn't have to lift a finger. The Howes did everything from bustle my dress to carry my food and drinks, and they made sure that our parents were spoiled all night long as well. I can not say enough wonderful things about these two. Especially for all those other Type A brides like me, this team is a MUST HAVE!

    As wedding photographers we have worked with a lot of DJ's over the past 8 years. Howe Weddings stands FAR above their competition in level of service, professionalism, and organization. Their two person team ensures that there is never a break in the entertainment of the evening while the events of the evening are seamlessly coordinated behind the scenes. It takes so much stress off of us knowing that we are working with professionals we can trust. Thanks for all of your hard work Howe!

    Kelly and Susan are AMAZING!!!! So good at what they do. They took the time to make sure our wedding was truly special! Kelly is an amazing DJ and Susan is awesome;coordinating our entrances and making sure everything runs smoothly (even getting the bride and groom drink refills from the bar if they needed it).They go above and beyond your typical DJ service. Brides-if you have these two on your big day (or any event for that matter) stress no more, you're in good hands!! Can't say enough great things about the service we received from Howe Weddings!!

    I can't say enough good things about Kelly and Susan! They helped us through every aspect of planning the ceremony and reception music, and went above and beyond by giving us additional help with the processional and recessional, and even ideas and resources for us to write our ceremony! They met with us more times than I care to admit to before the wedding (I'm a bit of an over planner) and they were always so much fun to sit and talk with. They've been doing this for years and their experience definitely shows and was a huge asset to my now-husband and I. I was so much more at ease on my big day, knowing that I could trust Kelly and Susan to make it perfect- and they didn't disappoint! Thank you both SO MUCH for an amazing experience and being our favorite vendor throughout our entire wedding process! You guys are amazing!

    This is the perfect example of a husband and wife team! Kelly and Susan made our day from the time we had our first conversation to our goodbyes at one in the morning. More than eager to please and had some excellent song ideas for a couple who had no idea where to even start. The Howe's provided the music for our ceremony and reception as well as back lighting for our reception. We had several guests compliment on the song selections and the visual effects. Kelly was right on top of announcements and kept us on schedule all night. If I ever had to do this over again I would choose these two in a heartbeat!

    By far the BEST vendor we worked with. Kelly and his wife susan were extremely professional, organized, and fun to be around. We received numerous comments from guests about how great they were. We contracted for uplights, draping, and gobo light with them and it was all perfect. Will be recommending him to all of my friends.

    Kelly and Susan go above and beyond their role as a DJ/event coordinator and truly make the experience unforgettable! From the planning meetings before the event to the SMOOTH day of, I couldn't be more pleased with hiring this couple to help us celebrate our wedding. We couldn't be happier with how things turned out. If you're looking to hire a local DJ- Howe Weddings & Events is definitely the way to go!!!

    Kelly was wonderful! From our initial meeting with him, he was incredibly knowledgable and professional. He really took time to understand the "vibe" of our wedding and guide us when we needed guidance. He played our perfect mix of alternative, oldies, jazz and pop music!

    On the wedding day, Kelly guided the evening acting not only as DJ, but helping organize our grand entrance and buffet. He really kept the wedding on track and moving smoothly. He kept the wedding about us, but was lively and entertaining in his commentary.

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about DJ Kelly!

    Kelly and Susan were more than just DJ’s at our daughter’s wedding and reception. They coordinated both the wedding and reception they made a fantastic team. Their past experience was priceless. The additional lighting they provided added a nice touch. Everything happened right on cue and if it didn’t we did not know it because they made the whole evening run smoothly. Their last name should be organized because I have never seen anyone do a better job. While we did have a couple glitches in another area that had nothing to do with them, they just pitched in and helped were ever they saw the need. We had so many people ask who they were, complimented them on their coordination and selection of music. Many people said they never saw the dance floor fill up so quickly. If you do not use Howe Wedding and Events you are missing out on the best. Thanks for making our daughter's dream wedding a reality. Bob and Deb

    We had the privilege of working with Kelly and Susan for our wedding! We found them at a wedding show and booked them a couple months later for our wedding. The dynamic duo was so easy to work with, their goal was to keep things easy for us on the day of the wedding. They kept the day moving like clockwork for us! Susan jumped in and made sure she had things flowing smoothly so we got everything we wanted in on time. I would definitely recommend them to someone else, you get more than just a DJ from them! The music was great, the lighting was great and the added bonus of someone else keeping track of time and activities for us was great as well.

    Howe Weddings and Events did a great job entertaining our wedding. We had Bobby and Connie as our DJ team and it was so nice to know that while Bobby was was doing the mucic and announcements, Connie was behind the scenes making sure everyone in our wedding party was where they needed to be and that my groom and I knew what was coming up next. Their on-line request system was a great additional service because we could choose our general music and favorite songs ahead of time to make sure our weding had the feel that we wanted it to. We met with Kelly to discuss each and every detail of the reception and were so please that all of that information was handed off to Bobby and carried out as we wanted it to be. We also appreciated that they had a price package that worked with our budget and included uplighting for the room.
