Justin did an INCREDIBLE job at our wedding. His preparation and attention to detail beforehand was immaculate, as he spent over an hour with my partner and me going over the entire wedding day step by step. The sound systems were flawless- everyone could hear our vows during the ceremony and the quality of the sound during the entire day and night was exceptional. He kept our wedding very organized and was the perfect host. Regarding the music selection, he allowed us to make playlists for the cocktail hour and reception which he stuck to using beautiful transitions between songs. Our guests were dancing the entire night! All of our guests said it was the most fun wedding they had ever attended. 10/10 DJ, would definitely recommend him for any event. I included a pic of me doing the worm in my wedding dress. The dance floor was too packed so I had to do it on the side!

DJ Dana did our wedding on 8/31/24 and we highly recommend him! He took into account my wedding playlists, and knew when to play the right songs. It took a lot of stress out of our day. He was very early, and set up with plenty of time to spare. His speaker system and microphones for toasts worked great. He brought his own lights to add to the party and even added some to our sweetheart table to spice it up! He was very thoughtful, and even sang us L-OV-E by Nat King Cole very tastefully and casually while people were finishing dinner. Highly recommend… thank you DJ Dana!

I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures. If you are looking for a DJ who cares, gets the dance floor going and is easy to work with, BEG Event Group is it. I will be recommending them to all my clients!

AUX Boston has the couple in mind who is looking for someone to capture their day in music in the same way you'd search for a wedding photographer to tell your story in a way that reflects you perfectly. A lot of time & care goes into your relationship, and so we know a lot of care goes into selecting the best "support team" on & before your big day. When it comes to music and MC'ing for your wedding, AUX Boston deeply cares about every aspect involved.

Michael was such a joy & pleasure to work with! He has far exceeded my expectations and made our night the most memorable and so much fun. He was very thorough and made sure our songs for the Wedding Ceremony was included as well as any special requests such as songs that we picked for the dance portion to be included and allow us to have our selfish request of having a last private dance for my now Husband and I to be fulfilled. Everybody loved the music and he kept the party going! Michael is incredibly easy going and professional. When I was still feeling very nervous on the day of, Michael made sure I was okay and ensured that everything was going to be okay and made the timeline of things go as smoothly as possible. The communication was top notch and even when I was making a million changes to my timeline, Michael was incredibly accommodating and answered any questions I had. I would highly recommend Michael to any Wedding Couple or party for his expertise. He has made our wedding so memorable and I cannot thank him enough!

PK And The Mighty Seven 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Arlington, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven has been celebrating with newly married couples since 2016! We were originally formed as a Jamiroquai tribute band, playing mostly music by the famed UK group along with other songs we enjoyed. Since that time, we've expanded our song list and played many weddings, which we love to do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying that we are not the type to write reviews for anybody - good or bad - but for the sake of future individuals/couples looking to book PK and the Mighty Seven we feel obligated to say that if you are looking for a band to entertain whatever party you are hosting you MUST choose PK and the Mighty Seven. To start, Matt was incredibly communicative and responsive during the initial planning stages, promptly responding to e-mails and joining several Zoom calls leading up to our event. We had a vision for our special day and they accommodated each and every one of our requests. On the day of they arrived early and did the necessary prep work to ensure they were fully situated to provide our guests with the night of a lifetime. They took special care to accommodate our unusual first dance request, song recommendations, and the ambiance we sought to instill. We had a wide array of guests and the overwhelmingly consistent feedback we received was that the band was AMAZING. No exaggeration - the majority of our guests said they were the best band they'd ever experienced. If you are getting married or have a special event in their area you will be doing yourselves an immense disservice not to hire them to make your evening as spectacular as you want it to be.

Vibeology IA 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Arlington, MA

Music is a lifeblood of life's journey: a universal language that invokes emotion and creates memories; and when thoughtfully and passionately curated into a soundtrack, custom-tailored to specifications, preferences and tastes, the outcome is truly magical, noteworthy, and filled with joy, sentiment, and connection. For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

Denise is amazing! During our DJ search for our wedding, my (now) husband and I came across Denise very early in our search. And I’m so happy that we did! Faced with the fact that we needed to find someone who would get (and keep) both of our dance-happy families on the dance floor, it was daunting to find the perfect fit for us and for the celebration to follow. We had to rely heavily on reviews to narrow down our search…but that only gets you so far when you want to feel the energy. In a leap of faith, we reached out to Denise. After that first meeting, we never looked back! It was easy to just spend time talking to Denise. She was our hype-lady from day one, working with our schedules from planning to the meticulous execution of the wedding day. She was patient with our indecisiveness on which instrumental version of our procession song we wanted (weeks of samples, back and forth, and for us to ultimately pick the first version she shared). As a planner, I very much appreciated Denise’s attention to detail. She combed through every detail with us well beforehand, so that she didn’t have any questions the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend this Lady DJ enough! She helped make our day so special and effortlessly kept people on the dance floor until the lights came on.

Once I understand what you envision at your wedding, I’ll use my 20+ years of experience to make sure everyone has a great and unforgettable time. I become very much involved in the timing and management of the evening from the moment you book me.

Tom just DJ'd at my wedding last month. He was amazing!!! A top-notch professional. I live in San Diego and it was hard planning a wedding in Boston without having the ability to check things out in person. When I finally arrived in Boston a week before my wedding, Tom met with my husband, my mother, and myself. He listened to all of our opinions and made amazing suggestions. The ceremony music was perfect...the entrance music was perfect...and the reception music was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ...not to mention the great rate and kind way of making a bride feel at ease. If you are looking for a DJ for any event I would 100% definitely recommend Tom

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't recommend The 1999 enough!! We first saw them at the Thirsty Moose bar in New Hampshire. That night, we had such a good time that we decided we wanted them as our wedding band over the other more traditional soul/r&b band we had in mind. They were able to play a lot of modern rock and pop favorites for us and our friends but also throw in a few classics for our parents and older guests. They even let us help decided the final set list to ensure a wide variety of songs. Working with them was such a breeze as Rob and Alex are so incredible detailed-obsessed -- we didn't have to worry about a thing because they gave us the confidence going into our wedding that they had it under control from pre-planning to end of night. We couldn't have asked for a better band and we are now happy to call them friends for life! Such great people, amazing professionals and talented musicians.

Redline 

5.0

  • Band/dj
  • Serves Arlington, MA

We can all agree that there’s something special about a live band that plays all your favorite songs. That’s Redline. We are that perfectly classic, polished, professional band that is also young, fresh, hip, with an energetic vibe that makes you want to stop the clock and dance all night! That’s Redline.

If you’re thinking about booking Redline for your wedding or, honestly, for any other event, just do it. You don’t need to keep reading; book them. If you need some more convincing, read on. In late 2021 my fiancé and I were looking for a band to play our wedding in December, 2022. Having a great, fun band was crucial to us. We came across Redline both via Instagram and via the Murray Hill talent website and we had a good feeling about them. We reached out via Murray Hill and immediately heard back from Ken. Ken was incredibly friendly in his response and sent over detail on Redline along with other bands that could potentially play for us in case we weren’t locked in on Redline. He also sent along the information for add-ons, including but not limited to uplighting, photo booths, and additional band members (you have to at least consider having someone walking around ripping the saxophone). We ended up booking Redline and the process was totally seamless; again, Ken was super helpful the whole time. We booked the cocktail duo, an 8-piece band including saxophone for the reception, and uplighting. Easy! Throughout the year, Ken was always available to field questions and would offer to have a call if it would be easier. When you’re in the middle of every other aspect of wedding planning, having someone like Ken who is organized, kind, and thoughtful makes things a LOT easier, especially if the band is important to you. All right, let’s fast forward to wedding week. We had sent over a worksheet to Ken earlier with a general outline of the night. Entrance songs, first dance song, etc. along with whether there would be a bouquet toss, cake cutting, etc. It was very detailed which will actually help you visualize how the reception will go. We walked through this with Ken step by step and worked with him to adjust accordingly. Again, with the wedding looming, this was actually a calming experience because of the confidence we had in Ken. The day of the wedding, I didn’t see Ken and the other band members until the cocktail hour because, well, you know, I was getting married. The cocktail hour duo was incredible. They set such a good vibe for the rest of the night and played a cool mix of songs. Compliments were already flowing from the guests. After the cocktail hour, Ken came to where the wedding party was getting ready for intros while guests filed into the ballroom. This was another instance of what you’re getting with Ken and the Redline crew; he worked with the wedding coordinator to get us lined up and ready, get us pumped up, and get us moving. Reception time. From the first dance I had with my now wife, to the last dance of the night (Tiny Dancer- Elton John. Yes, you were curious and yes, it was awesome) everything was perfect. The band was SO good and SO energetic. The mix of songs they played was incredible and this was a wedding where the dance floor was PACKED THE WHOLE TIME with people dancing. It was SO much fun and we still have guests complimenting how great Redline was. Following the wedding weekend, Ken reached out to us with a personalized and heartfelt note about how good of a time the band had and our overall experience together planning over the course of the year. It was just the cherry on top to what was such a wonderful experience. In summary, book Redline, just please don’t book them on the same date as whatever next big event comes my way because I want them to be there to party.

Scott was amazing for our wedding!! We were originally going to have our wedding in October of 2020 but with the pandemic we rescheduled for November of 2021. During the whole process of having to change dates, Scott was responsive and supportive. In the beginning we only booked him for our reception but realized a few months before the wedding we would need someone for the ceremony and cocktail hour. He was very accommodating and gave a extremely fair add on price for the extra time. The day of he was more than I could ever imagine! Our wedding was Disney themed and he listened to all our requests with no judgement. I am not someone who likes to dance, but I was out on the dance floor almost the whole reception!! The music was just what we were looking for and was very accommodating to my sensory needs. We also booked the magic mirror photobooth as a surprise for the guests and it was MAGICAL. Everyone at the wedding said it was their favorite part of the whole night. I am so thankful we booked Scott for our wedding!

Bill went above and beyond our expectations for our wedding DJ! From the start he was so eager to know exactly what we wanted in our music choices and also how we wanted our wedding to go in general. He was a great communicator with us and the other vendors and SO accommodating during the planning process (even when I made last minute changes to the playlist, he was so on top of it!) The timing of our wedding actually ended up being ahead of schedule, which was absolutely because of his guidance in keeping the schedule moving at the clip it needed to be. This was great because it meant we got more time on the dance floor, which was absolutely my favorite part! Now I'm a bit of a music nerd, so I had very specific songs that I wanted played at specific moments and he delivered that perfectly! Our playlist was also pretty eclectic (indie, folk, pop, disco, classic rock, 80s new wave, EDM kind of eclectic!) and he was able to build an order to my songs that flowed perfectly and kept people dancing all night! If you are thinking about hiring Bill, DO IT!!! he was so kind and professional from beginning to end of working with him. Can't recommend him enough.

Loren and the crew made it so easy for us, chatting about our style and what we wanted to hear - mostly funk and 80s. They even learned a few songs for us to truly customize our day. As music nerds ourselves, my husband and I couldn’t just trust our wedding to anyone - we both HIGHLY recommend booking them for your wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently hired Press Play Entertainment for a Bnei Mitzvah celebration. Keith and his team were a delight to work with. Keith was very communicative and cooperative in the planning stages and fleshed out a great program for the event. There wasn't a single point during our planning conversations where I felt he was "pushing" services; in fact I felt that he really listened to what I wanted and even discouraged me from purchasing extra services when I inquired about them, which I really appreciated. At the event itself, he and his team were energetic and upbeat and managed to get even the most reluctant guests to participate in the fun and really enjoy themselves. Just like with many events of this kind, we encountered a few small challenges (larger crowd than was expected for the space rented, a few "non-compliant" teens) that Keith and team handled seamlessly and flawlessly. Most importantly, everyone had a great time! Many of the adult guests came up to me after the party to express how impressed they were by Keith and team and said they had never seen another entertainer be so effective and engaging at a party. I agree with them 100% and would honestly never consider hiring anyone else for any future events.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding photographer, I had the pleasure of working alongside Style Points DJs this summer, and it was such a fun experience! Not only did they keep the dance floor packed during the reception, but they also handle unique aspects of this particular wedding so professionally (ie: a violinist and an aerial hoop artist). Their playlist incorporated songs for all guests to enjoy, and the audio throughout the day, including the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception, was crystal clear. I would highly recommend Style Points DJs to any couple who is looking for an energetic, yet professional duo.

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

We had a phenomenal experience with Luis as our wedding DJ! Planning a wedding out of state (and in a different time zone) was quite a challenge and when starting the initial search for DJ's, Luis was the only one out of everybody we reached out to that didn't require us to get on a phone call to go over pricing, so that was an automatic green flag off the bat. From the moment we booked Luis, communication was present. I feel like a lot of people I've talked with book their DJ, have one meeting, and see them at the wedding, but that was not our experience with Luis. We had a few meetings, several text chains, and certainly felt the line was always open if we needed something. One of my favorite things was Luis' hype texts the week of as if he was one of our people actually attending the wedding. Luis did everything we wanted at the ceremony and reception in regard to announcements and mic ups. We left Luis in charge of the music selection for the reception and from our personal experience and a few friend's comments, he did a great job with his selection! Luis was great before the wedding, during the wedding, and even after the wedding, and I cannot recommend him enough!

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

DJ Mark Dixon was our DJ for our wedding at The Bedford Village Inn on August 27th. From our initial conversation all the way to our wedding day Mark was amazing. He is extremely detailed and organized. The wedding planning site they use is flawless, and helps prepare not only him but you as bride and groom for wedding day. I had to make several last minute changes as my Dad was unfortunately unable to attend the wedding, Mark didn’t hesitate to step in and help make those changes. He stepped in to help facilitate a zoom call with my dad so he could watch the ceremony virtually which meant the world to me. He also helped my Husband with a video tribute to my dad during what would have been the daughter father dance. Fast forward to the reception, the dinner music had people out of their seats and on the dance floor so you can only imagine how the rest of the night went. The dance floor was beaming with energy all night, he played the best music and seamlessly transitioned between songs. Our guests keep telling us it was the best wedding they have ever been to.

The process of picking out songs, working on the timeline and introductions was very simple and straightforward. Everything we asked for was accommodated, even our special guest singer. Brick Park really brought the fun, so talented, it was more like a concert than a typical wedding. I would highly recommend getting the DJ to spin songs while the band takes a break.

I'm Brian and I design atmospheres through curated music and light for my clients and their guests so that we may all engage in a shared energy. Weddings are better when all the senses are engaged. I do that through combining music and light to work with each other seamlessly. I say no to sh*tty DJ lighting of the past. Your wedding shouldn't look like your middle school dance. Musically I want to present you and your guests with a soundtrack that speaks to you shared history and further connects you in the this significant moment in your life.

Brian was the DJ for my wedding and overall you couldn’t ask for more. Leading up to the wedding we had multiple meetings to make sure he knew what we wanted for our wedding. Brian is also knowledgeable and shared some ideas with us which were helpful. He also gave us a checklist during one of our first meetings which helped us with planning the wedding and staying on time with things we needed to complete. We also had a check in the week of the wedding which helped square away last minute details. The day of Brian did an awesome job from start to finish. Multiple people including my 81 year old grandmother said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Brian DJing definitely played a huge part in that and I would recommend him for any event you’re planning on having a DJ.
