"I discovered Sound Engagement at the Midwest Summit for Women in Law Enforcement in Fargo back in 2022, and it was clear they were far above other entertainment companies. I especially appreciated their attention to detail and the fact that there were no technical difficulties, which is something you don’t often experience at conferences.
Sound Engagement was excellent to work with! They were easygoing, incredibly flexible, and truly paid attention to our needs. Their professional look, their ability to adjust on the fly, and their seamless execution made a huge difference.
The awards ceremony was my favorite moment, and I heard several comments from attendees about the overall professionalism and high-end feel of the event. That’s directly thanks to Sound Engagement.
If you're planning a conference and want to take it to the next level, consider hiring Sound Engagement. The investment was absolutely worth it."
- Captain Tom Iverson | ND Highway Patrol
“Sound Engagement went above and beyond to make the ND Peace Officers Association Conference a success. Zach and Keesha are an incredible team working seamlessly together with professionalism and a sharp eye for detail. They took the time to truly understand our vision, from draping and lighting to sound and digital boards, and even offered valuable suggestions that enhanced the entire experience.
What really sets them apart is their dedication. They worked long hours to ensure every trainer had exactly what they needed, and their tireless support made everything look and feel effortless. Their commitment didn’t go unnoticed we genuinely couldn’t have done it without them.
We are so grateful to the Sound Engagement team for their outstanding work and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to elevate their event!”
- Angie Ernst | Cass County Sheriff / ND Peace Officers Association
“Zach was the first person I called for our entertainment needs, and we hit it off right away I didn’t feel like I needed to call anyone else. From the very first conversation, their customer service was great. The online portal made it easy to update items for our event, and they were so helpful throughout the process.
We had a great experience! Sound Engagement went above and beyond what we asked for providing background music during the banquet, uplighting in the room, and great interaction with the crowd once the entertainment kicked off. They really took our event to the next level without us even having to ask.
What stood out the most was how “real” they are professional but incredibly personable. I could tell they genuinely wanted to understand our group to create the best possible experience. That kind of investment is rare these days.
There are always a lot of moving parts behind the scenes, and attendees often only notice if something goes wrong. Sound Engagement took care of all the technical details ahead of time pre-testing audio and presentations, so everything ran smoothly and on time.
Go with Sound Engagement you won’t be disappointed. They're a great local company who truly cares about you and your organization. I absolutely feel we received great value, and our members loved the evening. It was something different, and they really enjoyed it.”

If you're even thinking about it, call Zach and Keesha. Trust them to make everything perfect. The moment when everyone realized what we were doing it was unforgettable.

The icing on the cake was the additional lighting that Sound Engagement added that made the overall experience even more stellar. Would highly recommend Sound Engagement!"
- Sara Curl | Arthritis Foundation
"Zach and Keesha were absolutely wonderful to work with! They were flexible, responsive, and willing to meet me where I was both in terms of location and the needs of our event. Every question I had was answered quickly, and they made the whole process so much easier.
They truly took a big task off my plate so I could focus on other things. From adding audio to our video, to prepping my PowerPoint (no matter the format I had it in!), they were incredibly accommodating. I especially appreciated Keesha being near the stage, coordinating our speakers and keeping everything on track. The professionalism they brought to our event was noticeable people commented on the improved sound quality and overall flow.
One of my favorite touches? Seeing photos being submitted and shown live on screen! I would wholeheartedly recommend Sound Engagement.
They care deeply about what they do, and it shows."

Zach and Keesha brought such a friendly, laid-back vibe, yet remained completely professional and on top of every detail. One of the biggest improvements this year was sound in past events, guests struggled to hear, but this time everything came through crystal clear. You could literally hear every word, “clear as a bell.” They were super easy to work with, incredibly experienced, and made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend!"
- Summer Hammond | BIA Red River Valley
"We used Sound Engagement for the lighting and sound for our annual fundraising event. They sat down with us to find out our vision and brought it to life even better than we envisioned.

"Sound Engagement has worked with us the last couple of years for our prom, and they have killed it every time! They go above and beyond, exceeding our expectations year after year. Their communication is top notch quick to respond, quick to problem-solve, and always ready with a solution for those last-minute details.
We absolutely love working with them and are so thankful they’re always down for a good time! Evan even came through with some extra acting skills this year, which was such a fun surprise. The whole team just brings the energy.
Sound Engagement is a prom partner we look forward to working with again, and again!"
- Amy Kapaun | CCRI
"Zach and Keesha are just so fun and positive they brought such great energy to our annual employee recognition event! From our very first meeting to the end of the night, the experience was seamless. Communication was super easy and fast, and they were incredibly responsive throughout the entire planning process. We didn’t have to worry about a thing! One of the best surprises was how little setup we, as a committee, had to do. Between Sound Engagement and the Marriott team, everything was handled beautifully, which really allowed us to just enjoy the night. The Music Video Bingo was a huge hit it was the perfect balance of fun and engagement for our group. I’ll never forget my entire table belting out “Wrecking Ball” such a great memory! It truly was a perfect event, and we’re already spreading the word. Highly recommend Sound Engagement for anyone looking to bring something fresh, fun, and flawlessly executed to their event!"
- Sarah Jones | CCRI
"We used Zach and Keesha as DJs for our company Christmas party. They spent a lot of time with us in advance discussing the timing, setup, playlists, photo booth options and even met with our venue coordinator with us to make sure we had the IT setup in place for screens etc. Day of the event they were ready to go on time as promised and were professional and willing to jump in whenever requested. The disk of all the photos taken in their photo booth as well as a special jib jab, they had put together we got to keep was awesome!"
- Julie | Thomsen Homes
“It was fun, and such nice entertainment! I really appreciated the personal attention to our meetings, and honestly, the event was pretty much flawless from start to finish. Zach and Keesha are knowledgeable about their company, personable, upbeat, and super accommodating.
We had to reschedule our event due to weather, and they were happy to explore other dates with us. They kept me in the loop about their availability, which let me focus on my regular work instead of worrying about the entertainment. I was worried we might lose them due to all the shifting schedules, but their communication via phone and email was excellent.
Music Video Bingo was a fun alternative to other options, and it really got people interacting whether in small groups or across our large crowd. Staff calling BINGO and handing out prizes was a highlight! I would, definitely recommend Sound Engagement for a unique and engaging experience.”
- Kelly Kruize | KLJ Engineering
“Such a great experience! It was personalized to our company and our needs, and it was so easy to set up. I didn’t have to do a ton of planning, which meant I could actually enjoy the games and time with the team without the stress.
It was fun, easy, and super engaging. Even the shy ones turned on their cameras and joined in everyone played! It ended up being a perfect team-building event that brought in tons of laughter. The ease of working with Sound Engagement took the stress out of everything. They truly made it fun and simple.
I recommend the ease of Sound Engagement to anyone. Our staff had a blast, and they’re already talking about doing it again in the future. And of course... winning didn’t hurt either, lol!”
- Christy Dodd | Center of Technology & Business of ND
"I have booked Sound Engagement for 2 years for our company Christmas party. Zach and Keesha are so great to work with, very professional, yet laid back which I appreciate! They made the planning process very easy. The first year, we had one call to go over logistics, the evening schedule, set up and expectations. I gave them our theme, a little bit about our group and they ran with it. Year 2 was even easier! During the event, they adapt and customize the music to who's dancing, what they are dancing to, and the music never stopped. They kept a crowd on the dance floor all night. Our group also has a lot of fun with the video/photo monitors. We get a link to download all the photos after the event for our company memory book. If you are looking for a DJ service for just music, or you want all the extras like a photo booth, video and some cool lighting, Sound Engagement can do it all!"
- Kim Hacker | Bismarck Area Ambulance & Air Medical
"We hosted a Music Video Bingo event with Sound Engagement, and it was a great experience! Although my co-worker handled most of the initial planning, I coordinated on the day of and everything went so smoothly. Zach and Keesha arrived on time and had everything set up with no issues. This was a perfect event for college students. Even though some people weren’t familiar with the concept at first, we still had around 100 attendees, and they really got into it! The event was easily customizable, and once it got going, people were dancing, singing along, and having an awesome time. We’ve already heard from several students that they had a blast and are hoping we’ll do something like this again soon. I also love that you can choose games to fit different types of events it makes planning future experiences that much easier. Highly recommend!"
- Dylin Van Elsberg | MN State University Moorhead
