THE MARQUEE TEAM

Rick founded Marquee Events after seeing too many weddings handled the same way, with the same songs, the same pacing, and none of the care a great celebration deserves. Since then, he has DJed across the country, performed at more than 1,500 weddings, and built Marquee into one of the most sought-after teams in the region.

Rick brings a polished, high-control presence to weddings, with a focus on preparation, room awareness, and creating nights that feel anything but cookie-cutter.

Whether you already have someone in mind or want help choosing the right fit, Marquee will match you with a DJ whose energy, style, and approach make sense for your wedding.
