Velvet Sounds Entertainment is a mobile DJ, karaoke, and live vocal entertainment business based in Prior Lake, Minnesota. I bring the full setup to your venue — there is no customer-facing location at our home base; I bring professional sound, lighting, microphones, and entertainment equipment to you. I'm Michelle Wells, owner of Velvet Sounds Entertainment — also known as DJ Shelli. Velvet Sounds Entertainment is my own business, launched in 2025. I have been entertaining professionally since 1994 — over 32 years. I provide professional DJ, karaoke, emcee, and live vocal entertainment for weddings, corporate events, private parties, community celebrations, bars and venues, children's events, family celebrations, senior living communities, and nonprofit and veterans' events throughout the Twin Cities metro and surrounding area. Karaoke hosting draws on a 200,000+ song library. Every event is approached individually, with entertainment tailored to the occasion, the audience, and your preferences. I bring much more to an event than simply playing music. With decades of experience entertaining a wide variety of audiences, I know how to read a room, interact naturally with guests, adjust the music and pacing as an event develops, and keep things moving without unnecessary interruptions or awkward downtime. Music selections, requests, announcements, live vocals, karaoke, and interactive entertainment can all be incorporated to create an experience that feels natural rather than overly scripted. A custom-designed wedding and event planning packet, along with online portal planning for events, is also available to help with planning. For children's and family events, I take an active, hands-on approach, incorporating age-appropriate music, dancing, games, movement activities, sing-alongs, and other interactive elements that encourage participation while keeping the event organized and enjoyable. Velvet Sounds Entertainment is fully insured, with flexible packages and payment plans. Special pricing and discount opportunities are available for qualifying events and clients, including veterans and active-duty military, nonprofit and community organizations, senior events, children's events, and select charitable or community-focused programs. I also work as a DJ and Event Lead with Love Shack Entertainment, the entertainment company at the Minnesota Zoo. I also sing lead female vocals for an established local country band that has been part of the Twin Cities music scene for many years. Whether the event calls for a polished wedding reception, an interactive corporate celebration, a packed karaoke night, a family event, or a private party, Velvet Sounds Entertainment provides experienced, dependable entertainment built around the people who are actually going to be there.
