Meet Karen Gleason - aka DJ Betty

Hello! My name is Karen Gleason, but most people know me as DJ Betty — a high-energy, solutions-driven DJ who believes your event should feel effortless, elevated, and uniquely yours.

I specialize in creating unforgettable experiences through music, atmosphere, and interactive entertainment. In addition to traditional DJ services, I offer premium Karaoke, Music Bingo, Trivia, and Name That Tune options to bring an extra layer of fun and connection to your celebration. Together with my husband and best “roadie,” we bring quality, high-tech equipment and an even higher level of performance.

My approach is simple:
Operate at such a high level of preparation that chaos is afraid of you.

That means I don't just show up and play music — I anticipate, adapt, and deliver exactly the outcome you envisioned, even when the plan changes or the unexpected happens.

Whether you're getting married on top of a mountain, planning a Disney-themed cocktail hour, or looking for a meaningful way to honor a loved one, I'm here to say, “Sure — let's make it happen.” My job is to remove friction, reduce stress, and create an experience that feels smooth, thoughtful, and tailored to you from start to finish.

I believe luxury is about ease, attention, and peace of mind. It's knowing that every detail is handled, every moment is supported, and every part of your event feels intentional. That's the level of service I bring to every client, every time.

If you're looking for a DJ who cares about your event as much as you do — someone who prepares deeply, adapts quickly, and delivers consistently — I'd love to talk about how we can bring your vision to life.

Warmly,
Karen Gleason, aka “DJ Betty”

Photo Sharing & Memory Page

Give your guests a place to keep sharing photos long after the last dance.

This uses a two QR code system with clear instructions. The first QR code leads to a spot where guests can upload full-size photos straight from their phones directly into your own private, shareable memory page—that night or even weeks or months later. And the second QR code lets them see the viewer. These can be given together or separately. It’s built purely for quietly collecting and preserving every angle your guests captured, giving you a lasting keepsake to revisit anytime.

So imagine you give the guests the first QR code at the party and send the second QR code with your Thank-You note or Christmas card so they can browse at their leisure. You are fully in control of the photos being displayed and can add and delete photos as needed.

Your Photo Sharing & Memory Page experience includes:

  • Custom QR code generation
  • Uploads accepted for as long as you’d like—no expiration date
  • A private memory page of every photo, yours to keep, browse, edit and share
  • An easy slideshow view you can cast to a TV or laptop, plus a shareable viewer QR code you can hand out
  • A personalized slideshow background to match your event’s colors and décor
