Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths provided top-notch services to perfection for our wedding day. Extremely trustworthy, punctual, great at their job, and just great people overall on a personality level. We got married in Charlotte NC but Victor and his team are willing to travel to be part of your special day. It was a super hot summer day and we had him move to 4 locations for ceremony, cocktail hour, second ceremony, and reception (only indoor spot), and there was no lapse in music playing or delays. He conquered a tough challenge with that! Victor is extremely flexible to where the guest can create the entire playlist to their desire, or have no part in it and just relax and coast and let Victor do the work! The Photobooth addition is an absolute must-add, and really added another dimension for wedding guests, at an affordable price! We are so grateful that Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths were part of our special day. The photo attached is not me, it's a template sample of the photo strips we selected, but the database is huge so there's plenty selections!

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.

She even had recordings of several pieces making it easy for us to imagine and plan the ceremony. We had Beste play throughout our wedding and the emotion she added was palpable. Our guests also let us know how much they enjoyed her playing but regardless of the compliments, it was special for Samantha (my wife) and I. Would highly recommend!

This band was fantastic!! They played for my ceremony (guitarist), cocktail hour (three pieces), and reception (8 piece band). They were definitely the highlight of the night! They never said no to a single request we gave them - including playing a piece written by my own grandmother. I received so many compliments about their performance, and they kept everyone up and dancing all night.

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.

These guys have been a staple of Charleston for over 4 years. Everyone knows them, now they are servicing all of the Carolinas and just performed at my sisters wedding last month. They're just the best. Saxophone is killer, drummer is s legend. Look at their google reviews, there videos, all there info shows it, that they know what they're doing, and they do it well.

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!

Midnight City 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $7,500
  • Serves Cornelius, NC

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!!

If you're looking for the ultimate wedding entertainment experience, look no further than DJ Wade and saxophone player Jason. These two are an absolute *dream team*! They made cocktail hour and dinner so magical and created the perfect atmosphere. From the moment the reception started, they had everyone on the dance floor, and it stayed that way the entire night. Guests couldn't stop raving about them – many even said it was the best DJ and live music duo they've ever heard. The energy they brought made our wedding the most fun event many of our friends and family had ever been to. DJ Wade is a true professional. Despite giving him minimal direction, he absolutely knocked it out of the park, reading the crowd perfectly and keeping the vibe alive all night long. And adding Jason on the saxophone? Wow! It completely transformed the night, adding a unique, unforgettable vibe that made the reception feel both sophisticated and electric at the same time. Do yourself a favor and book DJ Wade. Adding Jason will take your event to the next level! We couldn’t be more thrilled with our choice – they truly made our wedding unforgettable. I can’t wait to use them again in the future!
