Alternative Wedding DJs 
Rating: 5.0 (35 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Waterloo, NE

Stereotypical wedding DJs spoil the fun. They play the same songs (boring). There are gaps between songs (awkward). And they talk on the mic too much (obnoxious). We’re the alternative. We beat match & blend music (non-stop dancing) We use the mic appropriately (vibe isn’t ruined) We personalize the playlist with your input (you’ll love the music) If you say things like, “We’re having a non-traditional wedding!,” or “We need to blend our multicultural families,” or “I’ll die if my domineering future mother-in-law demands that the DJ to play her QVC album collection,” ... then we're for you!

Awarded Best of Zola
When planning my wedding, I knew finding the right DJ was going to be my hardest moment. I’m in that time of life where we have a few weddings a year, and you can almost certainly find me on the dance floor from the moment it opens to the last song, only leaving for bathroom breaks or to pull friends to the floor. Finding Alternative Wedding DJs was one of those serendipitous moments and I knew it was meant to be. From the website being transparent (let’s be real, a lot of vendors hide details and waste your time, but these guys don’t), to hearing samples I knew this was going to be the best decision for my wedding. Their vibe and energy is palpable, even from a digital screen. They worked secretly with my family to coordinate a surprise flashmob from my favorite movie and handled requests as if they had the ability to read my mind (yes, Rasputin Just Dance choreography came out). If you’re looking to have the best dance floor of your life, call Alternative Wedding DJs. You won’t regret it.

We’re James and Paige, the duo behind Lathrop Wedding Co. Since 2018, we’ve been obsessed with capturing the high-energy, unscripted, and deeply personal moments that make your wedding yours. James is the one behind the lens chasing the light, while Paige handles the heavy lifting behind the scenes to make sure your experience is seamless. We’re not here to give you a gallery of stiff poses; we’re here to bottle up the core memories—the loud laughs, the quiet tears, and the "did that actually just happen?" moments—so you can relive them forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
James and Paige are AMAZING! They photographed our engagement and wedding. My husband and I are both camera shy and had never done couples photos before. During our engagement shoot, James was attuned to our comfort level. He essentially posed us the entire shoot. He and Paige are personable with their clients, asking questions and making conversation throughout the shoots. It makes a huge difference when you feel connected with the people on the other side of the lens. During our wedding, James was highly professional in sticking to the timeline. He helped ease everyone's nerves with a great attitude and confidence in his work. The pricing especially for the wedding packages is incredible. You will be in good hands if you hire Lathrop Wedding Company to capture your memories.

I love working with couples and getting to know you better! My hope is to get to your wedding day and feel like we’re old friends (like, I'd make the cut and be invited to your wedding if I wasn't your photographer!). I'm definitely a people person, so if we end up working together, be prepared... I will chat your ear off! I'm not into super stiff, micromanaged posing, I'm much more laid back than that and think we get much better energy in photos when we can have fun together and you can be yourself!

Let's get to know each other! I'll just start off with saying, it is underestimated how valuable it is to truly know your photographer and figure out if you vibe or not! Your photographer is around pretty much all day for the biggest celebration of your life. Meaning, it is important to have a photog who is genuinely excited, caring, and full of Christ like assuring words that will lift you up! I would encourage you to scroll down or inquire on my contact page if thats the kinda gal you're looking for to document your love story ;)

I would absolutely recommend! She was there early and I was very impressed with attention to details.

Caitlin went above and beyond to make the day special! It was a destination wedding to Oregon, and despite wind cancelling her flight from Omaha, she found a way to get here. As the wedding events started, Caitlin was able to capture precious moments with family and friends. Since Caitlin is also a friend of ours, her presence and participation in our wedding festivities made it all even more special. On the wedding day, she helped make my husband and I feel comfortable and relaxed taking our portraits. Our families appreciated Caitlin’s directness and kindness when taking the family photos. The process was seamless and effective! Ultimately, Caitlin’s sense of humor, vision, and talent resulted in photographs we will cherish forever.

We had our reception in fall 2024 at the Luminarium, and Fig. catered the most delicious appetizers, carving station, desserts, and more!! Colin was so easy to work with while preparing and planning the event, and when it came to the day of our reception, he and his team were so quick, hospitable, and kind. Chef Gabe brought all of our ideas to life, even spanikopita and crab cakes! They offer so much flexibility in terms of menu items, bar options, and serving (food stations vs plated dinner, etc). My husband keeps saying he wishes he could go back to our reception and have more time to just eat all the food! People continue to give compliments that it was the best reception food, and one of our friends even had 8 of the pork belly deviled eggs. All that said, I highly recommend Fig. for catering for weddings or other events! They are awesome and we’ll definitely keep coming back :)
