We had the pleasure of having DJ Viet as our actual day of DJ for our wedding, and I can’t recommend him enough! Viet was incredibly professional and fun. DJ Viet not only kept the energy high with great music, but also made sure the flow of the event was smooth and seamless. At one point I was able to communicate with him across the room just with nods and hand signals that I wanted to wait to cut the cake for a couple more minutes. This was only possible because Viet was always looking around, taking in the room making sure everyone was having a good time and everything was going like it was supposed to be. The photo booth service was an added bonus! It was a hit with our guests and provided so many fun memories from the evening. The props were fun, the prints were high-quality, and everyone had fun using it and getting a souvenir from the wedding. Communication leading up to the big day was stress free. The owner, DJ Trey was very easy to work with regarding the details of the event. After booking with DJ Trey I felt completely confident that I didn't have to worry about that part of the reception anymore and could focus on other things. This was due to the fact that the entire process from start to finish was professional and well thought out. Competitive pricing too! All in all we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend DJ Trey!

Charleston, SC
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,000

Our wedding band is a group of 5 best friends with BIG personalities. The whole musical aspect of the industry was run by cookie-cutter wedding bands that looked so much more corporate than artistic. So many couple's feel trapped into choosing a band that would simply play songs, but not give the crowd a performance. The reception is meant to be high energy, interactive, and engaging. As artists that tour the country and live the music we play, we truly believe we are the best in the country at providing our weddings with something real. Something that they can remember and take home with them for years to come.

Full time musicians with years of experience, The Midnight City band brings energy and passion to each event. Playing a wide variety of music styles, the band keeps their set list updated and relevant with a mix of old school classics as well as newer hits sure to please any audience. In 2019, The Post and Courier named The Midnight City as Charleston's favorite cover band - this is a band sure to impress!

We were an out of town couple, planning a "destination" wedding and Midnight City came very highly recommended from our CHS wedding vendors, which was very important to us; they get to see ALL of the local entertainment! After reviewing a few demo videos, we knew we needed to book Midnight City immediately! Their diverse music portfolio and range of genres they can play is unmatchable and their ability to engage with a crowd is so impressive. They are a truly talented group, not just a (insert generic event here) cover band. The booking process and pre-wedding communication was very quick and seamless. They were very flexible when we added on ceremony music after the fact and executed everything flawlessly. We were able to highlight our must have songs, preferred songs, and our "do not play" list. Their energy was high and truly made us feel like we were at a concert vs. a wedding (which is just what we wanted). They amplified our entire experience. You will not be disappointed with this talented crew!!

She was really responsive to all emails and text (even to some last minute questions and requests) and organized, and really took the time to get to know us so our wedding felt true to us.

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!

Overall our experience working with DJ David Malachi was absolutely excellent. He was extremely reasonably priced, was more than willing to work with us about setting up payment installments, and the app uses for couples to set up what songs they want to be played at the reception made it overall not only very easy but actually fun to put together something that might’ve been stressful otherwise. David was charming and responsive the entire process of booking and paying. And on the day of, the dance floor was absolutely a party, he did a great job taking certain requests and mixing the songs together while also keeping it pumped up but family friendly! He also went above and beyond to help the timeline be on track during the reception, going out of his way to help call tables and pull a game together of his own making, which got the crowd involved and was so much fun. He was constantly asking me and my husband what we needed and was down to do to be helpful. I would definitely work with him again if given the opportunity!!

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.

Marlon with Go DJ ATL was a wonderful vendor who clearly has plenty of experience in his field. He can read a room at a moment’s notice and keep a party vibe going with a variety of musical styles. I can testify considering our wedding blended White and Latin families and loved ones together while managing to get everyone out on the dance floor having a great time! He played salsa, merengue, bachata, line dances, country, oldies, classical, folk all in one event but at different points! Marlon lights up a room without taking attention away from the guests of honor but rather makes sure he directs the spotlight to the couple making them feel special. He is truly a one of a kind professional with a passion for his trade who wants to make sure your day is as special as the love you share with one another. Marlon, you’ve become a friend one the course of this past year; thank you for everything and for all the attention to detail you made sure to cover. I’m so grateful we had you at our event. I know it wouldn’t have been the same or nearly as successful without you!

Awarded Best of Zola
I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. 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. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

Could not have asked for a better wedding band! Tyler went out of his way to make sure we had a fantastic night. Absolutely zero stress to work with and the dude rocks! He even recorded special renditions of our walk down and first dance songs. We may still be in the honeymoon phase, but it is really fun to throw that on all of our favorite playlists.
