DJ Rayford is that wedding DJ that would like to meet the vision you have for your wedding! I specialize in making sure that I cover the details of your wedding reception as well as ceremony. My experience over the years has allowed me to make sure the preparation that I put forth, allows the day to go as smoothly as possible and is willing to make adjustments in the moment.

DJ Rayford LLC was fantastic to work with for our wedding! From our first call, their communication style was strong, fun, and hype - they really got us excited about the music and dancing for our big day. And they delivered on that excitement, playing great music that kept our guests on the dance floor all night long.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for being an amazing DJ. You truly went above and beyond for Ken and I to make our wedding day special. We are grateful beyond words for your kindness, professionalism, and class. My husband and I had made a Spotify list since we knew what songs we liked and had been to other weddings in the past. Ken and I wanted to find a DJ that would LISTEN and we found him!!!! Hiring DJ Ivan was the best decision we made (besides marrying each other). DJ Ivan and Imani were extremely professional, kind, and classy. They asked each bridesmaid and groomsman how to pronounce their names and he was very detailed oriented. He made our wedding day his own and only offered the best service. I would ONLY recommend DJ Ivan to family and friends. If you don’t want to worry about your DJ and want him to listen to you, hire DJ Ivan. You will not be disappointed. In a world where people do not go above and beyond…DJ Ivan fights that stigma and gave us so much more. Thank you DJ Ivan and we will be sending everyone to you!

DJ Liza was by far one of the best wedding DJs, and I’m so grateful that we were able to book her for our big day!! Coming the night before to our rehearsal dinner was by far one of the most helpful things she contributed to our big day— she gave so many helpful tips, and ensured that our day went as smoothly as possible. Liza went out of her way during the day of to make sure that my husband and I had a good time!! She was able to pull my playlists from Spotify, made sure we had drinks for every toast, and adjust last minute when we needed to change something. She was affordable, fun, and genuinely cared about our guests and us! We got so many compliments on the music and dancefloor. DJ Liza is the best!!

By Request Mobile Dj Service

Akron, OH
  • DJ
  • Starts at $990

We understand you want your event to be fun, yet elegant and classy – but most of all stress-free. We’re dedicated to putting on a fun, yet elegant show for you and your guests. We don’t make unbecoming jokes, perform cheesy acts or display tasteless advertisements.

Streamcle is a preferred partner of By Request. We provide Livestreaming, event photography and custom production at many of their weddings and events. One of the best things about By Request is that their Djs are in constant contact with all vendors throughout the day, and they keep the guests informed too so no one misses a moment. By Request is small enough to provide a one of a kind experience but large enough to be able to staff and furnish equipment to multiple locations and large events on any given day. Couples and hosts are treated to custom service so no two events are alike. Their inventory is modern, clean, well maintained and frequently upgraded. We look forward to future events together!

I have been lucky to know and regularly work alongside John and the crew of An Affordable DJ for seven amazing wedding seasons. As a photographer I work closely with many DJs and I know that from organizing and personalizing your experience to keeping your guests entertained and engaged a DJ can truly make or break your celebration/event. With An Affordable DJ they get to know you and your style up front so you can relax and enjoy your wedding or event without worrying.

The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band.

It’s all about making our events as distinct as the couples that we’re honored to celebrate with. The goal: customization of every detail possible to ensure that your perfect wedding visions are brought to life.

We recently had the pleasure of having Scott and John from Sound Precision Entertainment as our wedding DJs, and we couldn't have asked for a more fantastic experience.

Right from our initial conversation, it was evident that Scott was not just a talented DJ but also genuinely passionate about his company and cared about his clients needs. Scott and John took the time to understand our musical preferences, reception timeline, and special requests, ensuring that every detail was accounted for. On the day of our wedding, Scott and John's professionalism and expertise were on full display. The reception flowed seamlessly, thanks to their skillful emceeing and perfectly timed song choices. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the dance floor alive was nothing short of remarkable, and our guests were raving about the incredible atmosphere they created. The photobooth provided by Sound Precision Entertainment was an absolute hit! Our guests had a blast taking fun and memorable pictures throughout the night. It added an extra layer of excitement to the celebration and gave everyone a keepsake to cherish. One of the most touching moments of the evening was when Scott gave a heartfelt shout-out to my grandmother, who was gracefully tearing up the dance floor in her wheelchair (that one of our groomsmen decked out with lights). It was a beautiful gesture that made her feel so special and included in the celebration. We truly appreciate the thoughtfulness and compassion shown by Scott and John.

We had Terrell as our DJ for our wedding and could not be more happy with him! It was a little nerve racking having a meeting so close to the big day but Terrell and Derek both made us feel comfortable that everything would go smoothly. On the day of the wedding Terrell was at a venue he has never worked at before but set up and communication was seamless. He kept the party going and had the dance floor packed all night (one of the most important things for us that night). We didn't give him a playlist; just more like some guidelines and he did an amazing job. He came up to me and my husband to ensure we were happy (and even fed!). He communicated with me and the photographer to ensure all the big moments were captured before the photographer had to leave which was so nice because the thought to do that had not even occurred to me. We can not wait to recommend them more to anyone getting married or throwing an event. Thank you so much Terrell and Derek!!!!

Absolutely amazing!!! People at our wedding still talk about them a month later! They not only brought great positive energy but were so sweet and kind to work with. They heard all of our requests and took them all into account. They were not only amazing to us but all of our family and friends. Would HIGHLY recommend. Also working with Utah Live Bands was one of our easiest vendors to work with - Stephen Tobian was always so responsive it was great for planning from afar! Book these guys early though they fill up fast!
