***** Lindahl was advertising to Disk Jockey (DJ) weddings and requested he be sent the money ahead of time. He was only sent his 50% retainer fee which is documented via contract but never provided services and pocketed the money. The retainer was $765.48 and was payed over the phone via PayPal and can be documented through my *************** account records as well as the contract. The amount he requested was $1530.96 once the event was over, as a retainer to get him booked for the event he requested half which was paid to him on 12/14/2021. ***** canceled on August 30, 2023 via email. ***** was to provide services on 10/07/2023 and failed to do so and has refused to return the money. He has several public complaints from others on the better business bureau of him doing the same thing to them. He stated he would update on a refund by 09/29/2023 and has since blocked all contact from everyone. ***** continues to advertise services on his website and states his services are award winning with a 2023 LLC date.Initial Complaint

We booked this company back in 2020 to play at our wedding. 6 days before our wedding, we found out that we would not have a DJ despite paying the full amount for the services and having a signed contract. They owner said he would call us ASAP and he never reached out. He does not respond to any form of communication now.Initial Complaint

Booked on 01/28/2022, paid the deposit of ****** that was due. Last part of deposit due by September 26th, but ***** Lindahl already canceled the contracted services.Complete and utter scam! Do not use this company. It used to be reputable. I have called around to **'s in the area and heard from brides who had the same thing happen to them as it did to me. All Occasions is now run by a guy name *****, who takes your money and has canceled for numerous people stating that his **'s all quit and some BS about the workforce. No I called around they all quit because he did not pay them. He breached contract of just about everyone. He canceled our contracted wedding 2.5 weeks before the wedding and stated he could not guarantee replacing the ** thst was no longer with them, who does that!. He has done this to brides the day of, after collecting their last deposit for their services of a wedding ** the day prior-and the day of the wedding EMAILs them and does not call and states the ** canceled or some excuse and that's all no money vack, no care, just that's all. Beware!!!!! There are people and **'s filing lawsuits against him. He has no problem taking money but not doing the service. When asked to return the money, no one answers the phone and the Voicemail is always full. So sad, this company which was once was a reputable company by ****, has now become a business that has ruined brides most precious day causing them to panick and worry. From a guy name ***** who now owns it, with absolutely no moral disregard for anyone. He got in over his head, clearly mismanaged the money, couldn't pay his **'s and now is turning it on the **'s he never paid. This is a complete an utter disgrace and scam.Initial Complaint

On November 6th 2021, my fiancee and I booked a ** (wedding date 10/15/22) with All Occasions DJ Service and Lindahl Event Services. On March 31, 2022 we received an email from *****, the owner of the company, telling us *** (the ** we booked after being happy with the job he did at our friends' wedding), was no longer available to be our ** because he chose to enlist in military. ***** offered to assign another ** from his company or offer us a full refund and help us find a different ** company. We appreciated the customer ********************** and decided to stick with ***** and his company. On April 4, 2022 we were assigned ****** as our **. We met with ****** on May 5, 2022 to discuss our wedding and go through planning with him. On May 12th, we received an email saying ****** was let go from the company for not meeting customer ********************** standards. ***** offered to discount our package and assigned ****, the founder of the company, to be our **. We figured the founder of the company would indicate we were being taken care of and wouldn't have anything to worry about. May 19th we sent an email asking for help setting a meeting with ****, our 3rd assigned ** with this company. The response from ***** said that it was uncommon to meet this early and we wouldn't need to meet with **** until August. No meeting scheduled. Our May 24th email went unanswered. On June 23rd we sent another follow up email, to which we received a response with an updated contract, however we still weren't able to schedule a meeting with ****. On August 13th, we sent an email asking when we could meet with ****. ***** responded CC'ing **** so that he could schedule with us. **** emailed and asked for dates to meet. Our response went unanswered. We emailed **** on Sept. 7, 38 days till our wedding and received an auto response saying his email address wasn't valid. We emailed ***** on September 8th but didn't get a response. We made two calls but couldn't leave a message due to voicemail being full.
