Sam from Dream Day Charleston is an awesome DJ! We found him as a recommendation from our planner who had all great things to say. We're so glad he was able to DJ for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. From the start, Sam was responsive and personable. Dream Day Charleston's website and online music portal were great resources that helped us start the music planning process! Sam even provided playlists for pre-ceremony options, cocktail/dinner music, and reception songs for every type of music taste. Sam took time to meet with us before our event to walk us through the day and and help us nail down final song choices and details. He even helped us edit and cut down our first dance song. Execution on the wedding day was flawless. The ceremony was great, Sam made sure the officiant was properly mic'd, our speakers had microphones, and made upbeat announcements to keep our event progressing. DJ Sam got everyone out on the dance floor with his great mixes and was able to take requests. I would highly recommend Sam for any event! His energy, passion, and professionalism are off the charts.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with DJ Trey Entertainment, specifically Senquan and Trey. From the very beginning, they were phenomenal. They were incredibly responsive and even took the time to meet with me pre-wedding to go over our timeline in detail. Their professionalism and attention to detail gave me such confidence in our choice long before the big day. Even when unforeseen circumstances forced last-minute changes to our venue and location, they didn’t miss a beat. They were accommodating, understanding, and incredibly sympathetic to our situation. On the wedding day, Senquan arrived right on time, set up quickly, and handled the ceremony music flawlessly. His professionalism and perfect timing made the ceremony so special. When it came time for the reception, he went above and beyond. Not only did he stick to our playlist, but he also managed song requests from our guests as long as they were on our approved list, which made everyone feel included. What stood out the most was how he stepped up when our wedding coordinator fell short. Senquan kept everything on schedule and made sure the evening flowed seamlessly. His energy and fun personality made him such an amazing addition to our day. We received so many compliments from guests about how great the music was and how much they enjoyed the vibe he created. We couldn’t agree more. Choosing DJ Trey Entertainment was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we’re so thankful they were part of our special day. If you’re skeptical about how they have so many 5-star reviews, don’t be. They truly deliver 5-star service, and we can’t recommend them enough!

Travis and his band were absolutely phenomenal to work with for our wedding. The music was great; he learned our first dance song perfectly; the selection of music meant there was something for everyone; and he even had tarps to put up to keep the music going as the rain came down. Absolutely professional and a joy to work with. Plus, a bunch of my musician friends from around town recommended Travis and said he's fun to play with. You'll think so too. Thanks, Travis!

From the first day we reached out to Brian about his DJ services all the way through our wedding day he was absolutely outstanding! The app was an awesome way to communicate and my husband and I had a blast sitting down to dig through our Spotify playlists and add songs to it. On the day of, Brian was incredibly attentive, adjusting music when it needed to be and throwing in some of his own flair that made for such a memorable night.

Paige and Holly were a dream to work with! Music and dancing was one of the highest priorities for our wedding. Paige and Holly understood my vision and music taste immediately, and we knew we could trust them for an incredible party. They took all of my favorite songs and wielded them expertly to keep the dance floor packed all night --- from Stevie Nicks to Chappell Roan. Our wedding night wouldn't have been the same without them, and I wish I could relive that dance floor a million times over. We have gotten countless compliments on our wedding music and how much fun our guests had.

James was the DJ for my wedding just two weeks ago! Going into the planning process, I knew Born to DJ because James also did my sister's wedding. He is one of the only DJ's I know that constantly reads the crowd. If he can tell people aren't liking a song, he will change it to keep everything lively. I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it. That is not an easy thing to do but I have seen James keep people dancing and engaged at my sister's wedding and now mine. The planning couldn't have been easier, and I always felt reassured after speaking with him. Born to DJ couldn't have done better and I highly HIGHLY recommend them.

There are not words to describe how much we loved having DJ Krystyle perform at our Aug 2024 wedding. She was very responsive, communicative, and has a super easy online portal that helps capture every detail you could think of for the event music. She’s also a lovely human in general to work with. We went with the approach of choosing the major songs and providing general recommendations around genres and let the expert handle the rest. We had multiple guests tell us they could not stop dancing or singing along the entire night. We had every age group on the dance floor. If it’s any indication - my photographer had to remind me a few times to stop bouncing around so she could get some good still shots. In our opinion, it doesn’t get any better than DJ Krystyle.

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.

I don’t even know where to begin, but before I go into it. Don’t think- HIRE TONY. We worked with such an incredible team of vendors, and one of the most amazing thing about Tony is that he is so in tune (pun intended) with the wedding industry that he works so well with everyone, is a true team player, and helps to make sure every single aspect of your wedding runs smoothly. We had an initial meeting with Tony before we even signed a contract and within seconds of hanging up we knew we had to work with Tony. He just gets it. He gets everything about weddings. He knows how to curate the perfect vibes and music. He is a phenomenal MC. He has your back throughout every step leading up to the wedding. We had a few meetings with Tony to discuss our goals for the wedding and every time we met with him we got more and more confident that Tony was going to absolutely kill it. Little did we know that Tony was going to create the most perfect set list of songs, create the most perfect mashups, and create a night that every guest and every age group would enjoy. My 86 year old grandma danced the ENTIRE night thanks to Tony’s expertise. You can tell from the minute you meet Tony that he loves what he does. We have had so many friends and family members tell us how incredible Tony was and how we had the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to. We’re biased but we agree. Tony made such an incredible impact not only on us, but all of our guests. Also to add, Tony brought cold sparklers and extra lighting for us that absolutely blew our minds. Our dance floor was PACKED from the minute it opened. Tony is a top notch entertainer and a top notch person. If you are given the opportunity to work with him, don’t think twice. Do it. I promise you will not regret it.

Sam Hill Entertainment

  • Band/dj
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Awendaw, SC

Sam Hill Entertainment is based out of Charlottesville, VA with bands located throughout the Southeast. Over the last 25 years, Sam Hill has helped tens of thousands of brides and grooms book the best in live music across the 50 states and for fly-in international weddings! Our bands cover Top 40 hits, fiery versions of Soul, smooth versions of Motown, elegant jazz classics, toe-tapping bluegrass, and country - it all exists among the performers we work with!

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!
