I have DJ’d at most of the Michigan wedding venues over the past 10 years. With that said, I thought it would be helpful to those looking to book a banquet hall in Michigan, if I shared my venue reviews as well as the experience I had at several of these popular wedding spaces. I have also included pictures and videos I took during my time at the venues.
This list is a work in progress and there are many venues where I have provided my services that I will be adding in the future.
Check it out to see if the banquet hall you are considering or have booked is featured!

Inn At St. John’s Atrium
I can honestly say DJing an Inn at St John’s Atrium wedding for the first time was almost surreal.
Even before I started my wedding business, I was always so blown away at this one of a kind wedding venue.
When I began DJing over 10 years ago, I immediately made it a goal of mine to provide my services at this breathtaking wedding masterpiece.
Now after providing my services a few times in this venue, I have to admit, it STILL takes my breath away.
CC King At An Inn AtSt Johns Atrium Wedding
The Ambiance
From the moment you walk into an Inn at St. John’s Atrium wedding, the first thought that comes to mind is WOW!
Furthermore, as you enter the wedding space, you will look straight up at the grand ceiling and your eyes will light right up!
This gorgeous banquet room also incorporates touches of nature and massive lighting columns.
But don’t just take my word for it, you can see for yourself how amazing this wedding space is in the picture below!
The Acoustics
In addition to its gorgeous ambiance, as a DJ I’ve just gotta talk about how awesome this venue sounds!
Simply put, it’s sounds big and grand as in the same way it looks.
On that note, when you hire your DJ, I suggest he or she has a good amount of speaker power to accommodate a space this size.
In addition, I also recommend that you take some time with your DJ to visit The Inn at St Johns Atrium before your wedding date.
If it’s their first time performing there, it will help them prepare for your wedding.
They really should experience the massive scale of this room in advance.
As of this date I am scheduled to DJ an Inn at St Johns Atrium wedding in about 4 months. As always, I am super excited to do so!
If you are looking for that “GRAND WOW FACTOR” in a wedding venue, this is the place!

Detroit Masonic Temple
Of the hundreds of wedding I have serviced, DJing a Detroit Masonic Temple wedding is always a special experience.
Check out the video below featuring many AMAZING moments at one of the weddings I DJd at this one-of-a-kind wedding venue.
If the venue wasn’t beautiful enough naturally, it also looks so gorgeous with uplighting added as well.
Check out the breathtaking picture below with uplighting added to the to massive ballroom’s structural columns.
There is also a very classy area on the second level that you and your guests will LOVE during cocktail hour.

In addition to the ambiance of this historic gem, I’ve gotta talk about the acoustic sound of the ballroom!
If you are looking for a BIG acoustic concert sound for your wedding, this is the place!
With that said, I always double up on my audio equipment and lighting anytime I provide my DJ services at this Michigan wedding venue.
Check out it out below!
The CC King DJ and Lighting Set Up at a Detroit Masonic Temple Wedding
The Detroit Masonic Temple is without a doubt one of the most iconic structures in Detroit Michigan.
I can definitely say it ranks in the top five of my favorite wedding venues.
Another special feature about this ballroom that I love is the dancing area.
There is more than enough space for everyone to dance the night away all night long!
On that note, I recommend that if you hire a DJ for your wedding at the Detroit Masonic Temple, that you hire one that can really get a lot people on the dance floor.
I DJ at the Masonic about one to two times a year.
As of this date, I am scheduled to DJ a wedding there next year and I can’t wait!
Lastly, if you are looking for the “GRAND STAGE” to host your wedding, look no further than the historic Detroit Masonic Temple.
Your photographer will love it too!

Fox Hills
Wow! Providing our DJ services at a Fox Hills wedding was an evening to remember. What an AMAZING setting!
We provided our wedding services at this lovely setting more than any other in 2018.
We love performing at all of their banquet venues from the Golden Fox, Summerhouse and Fox Classic. This Saturday we were at Fox Classic and it was our second time there in the last two months.
The Ambiance
Although the weather outside was a bit chilly, it was a very cozy and comfortable Fall wedding.
In addition, the Fox Classic venue was a great choice for the couple’s October wedding as it has a log cabin type structure with actual full sized tree logs which went so well with the season and the wedding theme.
The Ceremony
One thing we love most about Fox Hills are the breathtaking views that accompany their wedding ceremony settings.
It’s also notable that these ceremony areas are close to their banquet halls which makes for a seamless transition from the ceremony to reception.
See us in action at a Fox Hills wedding!
The Layout
It’s also important to note that we had enough audio equipment to supply music for the ceremony, cocktail area outside, dinning and dancing areas.
Many other DJ companies do not have enough equipment and have to move their equipment from one area to another during the wedding.
Not us, we have enough equipment to supply up to 7 different areas simultaneously.
Toasts and Speeches
During Dinner we provided the audio system and wireless microphone for toasts.
The DJ equipment was located a little ways away from the dinning area, so we routed an extra speaker closer to the where everyone was sitting so all of the guests could hear the toasts and speeches clearly.
Let’s Dance!
After dinner there was no hesitation for everyone to head on out to the dance floor to dance the night away with CC King at Fox Hills!
From fast dances to slow, classic rock to modern dance hits, the dance floor was packed for the entire evening!

Northville Hills Golf Club
Wow! Providing our DJ services at a Northville Hills Golf Club wedding was an evening to remember.
We also included our photo booth services and everyone had a wonderful time!
In addition, there was non-stop dancing from the first song to the last.
Our lovely bride and groom also left us a wonderful review on The Knot about how pleased they were with our services.
See Us In Action At a Northville Hills Golf Club Wedding
My DJ partner Rodney and I agreed that the staff at the Northville Hills Golf Club was outstanding and extremely accommodating.
And what a beautiful venue for a wedding!
No matter where you looked, there was always gorgeous indoor decor and outdoor scenery to be admired.
Everyone had a great time with our photo booth as well.
Furthermore, there were almost 100 photo booth sessions for the entire evening!
Plus, with the booth in the hallway, I could still hear guests using the booth having a blast all the way into the banquet room.
How Awesome!
We also loved the fall theme that the newly married couple selected and everyone really enjoyed the doughnut wall that complemented their theme so well.
The warm and cozy feeling was everywhere and it was such a comfortable and fun environment.
To my fellow wedding vendors, you will appreciate how accessible the venue is for convenient load in and load out of equipment.
In addition, I’ll be DJing at the Northville Hills Golf Club again in the future and I am really looking forward to it!
Providing our DJ services at a Northville Hills Golf Club wedding was an amazing experience.
The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating.
The comfortable ambiance was beautiful both inside and outside the venue.
Vendors will also love the accessibility of the venue for easy loading in and out of equipment.
Wellers Carriage House
Wellers Carriage House is the complete package. Pictured here is their outdoor pavilion space.
They also have a beautiful indoor wedding area as well.
In addition, both the indoor and outdoor wedding areas are surrounded by a stunning garden/courtyard with a beautiful river running alongside of it.
I also loved how nobody had to walk far to access the indoor or outdoor spaces.
Furthermore, this venue is VERY wedding vendor friendly.
It is very easy to maneuver when setting up equipment and there is tons of access to power.
Pine Knob Mansion
If you’ve ever dreamed of having your wedding ceremony on a massive hilltop overlooking thousands of trees, this is the place!
I’ve got to admit, I got lucky when I took this picture that this wedding was during the Fall.
The trees in the background look so colorful!
This outdoor wedding venue in Michigan also had an indoor wedding space (The Mansion) that was also very accessible for both guests and vendors.
Furthermore, if you like dedicated spots for each segment of your wedding, you will love this venue.
There are separate spaces for the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and indoor and outdoor dancing areas.
The Pine Knob Mansion is truly a historic and special venue that you and all of your guests will love and adore.
Barn Wedding Venues In Michigan
Frutig Farms
Outdoor ceremony by a river, outdoor reception under a beautiful tent and dancing inside the barn.
It’s the total package for an outdoor wedding venue in Michigan!
If you like a lot of space to take in the scenery, you will love Frutig Farms.
Everywhere you look while at this venue, you are surrounded by breathtaking landscapes.
Your DJ will also love the built-in sound system in the barn. It sounds amazing!
I have to add, this Michigan wedding venue is run by super friendly owners and staff.
They were very accommodating to the newly married couple, guests and all vendors while I was there.
I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for the total outdoor wedding venue experience.
Briar Barns Wedding Venue
From the moment I walked into the wedding venue, my breath was instantly taken away by this amazing setting. I knew that CC King at a Briar Barns wedding was going to be a VERY wonderful evening.
What made this wedding extra special for me was that our lovely bride and groom got engaged at a wedding I DJ’d over one year prior to theirs.
I was so honored when the mother of the bride (who also attended the previous wedding) asked me to be the DJ her daughter’s wedding as well.
The Ceremony
The ceremony was absolutely beautiful.
There was so much love for the bride and groom in this warm and charming room as all of the guests literally cheered when they both walked down the aisle to begin the ceremony.
I myself was extremely moved by the moment as well.
I also realized at this time this very lively energy of the guests was going to bode well for a lot of dancing later on!
One of the highlights of this wedding for me was fulfilling a very cool request to bring a disco ball.
I’ll admit, I bought a disco ball years ago and have never used it!
Needless to say, I put together the disco ball system and it added such a special touch as the parents of the bride danced under its amazing lights during the dance they dedicated to each other.
And there it is! Ya gotta love it!
I think it is also very important to mention how welcoming all of the guests were to me at the wedding.
Although I had DJ’d for many of them only one time previously, I felt like I was among many friends that simply wanted to have a great time celebrating our bride and groom’s marriage and were glad I was a part of the big day.
The Slideshow
I also brought the CC King Slideshow with music.
The father of the bride put together two wonderful music videos that we played during the bride and groom’s first dance as well as the dances with their parents.
We also kept the slideshow running throughout the rest of the reception as ambiance. Everybody LOVED it.
The Dancing!
And wow the dancing! Everyone danced the night away all the way to the very last song.
I was having so much fun myself, I didn’t want the night of CC King at Briar Barns to end!
I was amazed at how even though I had almost a 3-hour drive home, the adrenaline from this awesome night carried me all the way into the next day where I had the opportunity to DJ my next wedding.
What a weekend!
Forest Wedding Venues In Michigan
Stony Creek
I’ll always remember when I had my DJ consultation with the bride and groom at this location.
As soon as we entered the ceremony space, my eyes lit up and I gasped for air.
I was so taken back by the beauty of this amazing forest wedding ceremony area.
Furthermore, on the day of the wedding, all of the guests had their phones out taking pictures as well as they made their way to their seats.
One side note, as a DJ, I have to mention there is no power in this ceremony location.
If you are considering this outdoor wedding venue in Michigan, be sure to hire a DJ with a portable power supply for your ceremony.
Preferably not a noisy generator.
In addition to this very special ceremony site, Stony Creek also has a GORGEOUS wedding tent for your reception!
Broadview Christmas Tree Farm
This very charming forest wedding venue in Michigan space is one-of-a-kind.
If you would love to have your ceremony in a very private and secluded space, you will love this spot.
Once you arrive at this venue, you and your guests will be transported down the trail on a tractor cart with seating.
After the ceremony, there is a very cozy indoor cocktail hour space and outdoor pavilion for dancing as well.
This venue is a very comfortable and stress-free place to have a wedding ceremony and reception.
It really has that “Mom and Pop” country feel to it.
I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for gorgeous scenery with a laid back personable touch to your wedding.

Hello! My name is Tony Coppola and I’d like to take this time to tell you a little bit about myself and CC King Entertainment.
I began my musical journey when I was 12 years old as a singer and drummer.
Ten years ago, I built a home recording studio and named it CC King Studio. Shortly after, I DJ’d my first wedding and CC King Entertainment was born!
After DJing hundreds of weddings, my business allowed me to leave my 16-year career as an occupational therapist.
I ALWAYS go the extra mile to personalize my wedding services and have the honor to work with an amazing team of wedding DJs.
