We literally do not have enough words to express what an amazing job Chris did, not only DJ/MC service, but he truly kept the flow of the ENTIRE DAY going smooth and without issue. He even cleared our plates and refreshed our drinks during dinner so we didn’t have to move from the sweetheart table, those are small details that you would never think of but they absolutely matter!! Chris helped us plan every details and once the big day was here, he absolutely crushed it!! He was great at interacting with guests and we got multiple compliments on how well organize the day was (again thanks to Chris) I’d you’re looking for a classy and well organized day, please do yourself a favor and let Chris take the reins!!

I first heard Erica sing in a more casual setting, but I later found out she also sung at weddings. I loved her voice and acoustic style so I asked if she might be willing to use her talent at our wedding. My dad had recently passed away, and I was wanting to include a couple of his favorite hymns as a part of our ceremony. Erica did a beautiful job leading our guests in singing, and it truly was the perfect tribute to his memory.

DJ Kelly saved our wedding and was insanely amazing. I want to host another event just to have him DJ again. Our wedding had things that went wrong due to the weather, but Kelly rolled with the punches and worked with us with ease. You could tell he knew what he was doing and made it look so effortless. From announcing speeches to DJing the best party ever, he was always on the mark. So many guests came up after and asked who the DJ was and commented on how incredible he was. He never played a song for too long, and really understood the audience and what music they were looking for. He captured all ages at our wedding and had everyone up on the dance floor for a straight 3 hours. It was like a rave with a mix of songs from each era. My now husband and I did not leave the dance floor once. When he announced he was leaving the crowd all started chanting that they wanted more, it was an absolute blast! Also, during the process and leadup before the wedding, Kelly was great to work with. Very communicative, straightforward and helpful! Our overall experience with Celebrations24 would be a 10/10 for sure.

We knew after the first meeting with Thomas he was going to be our DJ. He sat with us for an hour going over every step of what to expect for our wedding during our first meeting. We discussed entry, first dance, final dance, exits, and much much more. We booked him first before all other vendors, and I feel this initial meeting and brainstorm with him really laid the foundation for what else we needed for the wedding. After this meeting we put the deposit down as we knew he would have our backs. From then on, he called once a month just to check in. Some months we just a simple "hi" and others we did have things we wanted to review. He was awesome the whole entire process and day of everyone was loving the music. After the event, he sent many photos and videos he took, which was awesome because these were candid moments no one knew were being taken but also a snippet before we got anything from our photographer/videographer. I cannot recommend Thomas enough and say to any bride or groom out there that this will be money well spent to get a night you will always remember.

We're a full service Event DJ Company specializing in weddings, parties & events. We are the only Tampa Bay area based DJ company that has a nationwide corporate production background, and it shows with our work and equipment, and most of all - attention to detail.

This attention to detail is why we're a preferred vendor at most of the local wedding venues.

We had Mike from AHE Productions as our wedding DJ, and I honestly couldn’t have chosen anyone better! His setup was one of the best I’ve ever seen—modern, sleek, and the killer lights matched our black-and-white theme perfectly. From the moment we had our planning call a few weeks before the wedding, I knew everything would run smoothly. Mike made the entire process so easy, and on the day of, everything was flawless. All the music followed our requests to a T, and our guests are still raving about the party! Mike knew exactly when to cut songs short and when to keep the energy high, plus he was fantastic at emceeing when needed. We had two grand entrances, and both were absolutely adorable and perfect. Our customized music for our choreographed first dance and serenade moment sounded incredible on the speakers. The ceremony and dinner music were also spot-on, and the entire evening flowed perfectly. Mike was worth every single dollar, and I’d recommend AHE Productions to anyone looking for a professional, fun, and reliable DJ! 10/10!

Gal was an incredible DJ!! We had a magical queer wedding with costumes and Gal actually dressed up as a magician, which was so great! She also went out of her way to meet with us on numerous occasions to talk through questions, music choices, organization of the day, and general set up. She helped us get our ducks in a row. She really got to know us and it showed in her music choices that kept the party and dancing going all the way to the end of the night. She even helped us set up for late night Karaoke and helpfully redirected a misguided attendee who wanted to give an impromptu speech. I highly recommend her! If you want your wedding to be fun and have someone who will be part of the fun with you, Gal is the right choice!

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

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.

Our Dj Rocks 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,575
  • Serves Crystal River, FL

We have rocked over 1,500 weddings and events! The biggest tip we have for choosing your DJ and MC is to make sure they match your personality and style. Do they get your vibe? Do they understand your event goals? When it comes to weddings, parties, or corporate events, we love making a personal connection with each of our clients. It’s what helps us create those unplanned moments.

We loved our entire experience with Our DJ Rocks. We found the online portal SO easy to use, and loved that there were song suggestions for each different category. We were pretty indecisive so we waited until the last minute to make a lot of our music choices, but in the end, having that system really made it a lot simpler than it could've been. When we were assigned Stasia, we were super excited! She seemed like a super fun person and we couldn't wait to get to know her. When we had our pre wedding phone call to go over all the final details, we were even more excited! Everything that we had doubts about or didn't have ideas for, she provided reassurance, suggestion, and inspiration. By the end of the call, we completely trusted that Stasia would do a phenomenal job as our DJ. The wedding music was absolutely perfect. From pre-ceremony to our exit song, Stasia was ON IT with our vibe, song choices, and timings. Everything flowed so well. I honestly can't say how nice it was to not be worried about guests having a good time. A lot of us didn't leave the dance floor the entire night! Her announcements to sign the guestbook and use the hashtag throughout the reception were so helpful and effective, too. We ended up with a guestbook globe full of signatures and well-wishes that we'll be proud to display in our home! We hear a lot of great things about our wedding in the weeks since. One of the things I hear a lot is how awesome our DJ was! My maid of honor loved the job she did so much, she actually booked her for her own wedding! And when she told me that one of the things she was stressed about wedding-planning wise was creating a wedding playlist, she was shocked when I told her we pretty much left it all up to Stasia! She really knows what works-when to use certain songs and how to keep the party going. Anyway, all in all, we couldn't be more pleased with our decision to book with Our DJ Rocks, and are so glad that we were blessed with Stasia as our DJ! We love her and can't wait to party with her at another wedding next year!

With over 20 years of experience, our network of professional musicians is dedicated to sharing our love of music with the community. Whether you're planning a wedding, private party, corporate event, recording session, or in need of orchestra or small ensemble music, we've got you covered. Let String Theory Music set the tone for your event with beautiful music that will create an unforgettable ambiance.

We booked String Theory's string quartet for our prelude, wedding ceremony, and cocktail hour, and they were hands-down one of my absolute favorite parts of our wedding day. I am honestly so overwhelmed with (positive) emotion when I think about what they added to our day that I don't even know where to start. As the bride, you're really running around a lot during the lead-up to your actual ceremony. We were kind of running late, so when we got to the venue itself I wasn't really focusing. Suddenly I realized I was hearing a string quartet playing, but they were executing the music I'd selected so flawlessly, I thought I was listening to a professional recording until I remembered that it was LIVE MUSIC played at MY WEDDING. I was absolutely blown away and the emotion of the day just hit me in that moment, and I genuinely believe it was enhanced by the strings! I did a private first look with my dad and they started playing music from Lord of the Rings that I'd selected and honestly it felt like I was in a movie. The emotion was that much more powerful and I still get emotional thinking about that moment. Our guests were absolutely raving about them as well, and in every video I've seen, they are playing often challenging pieces flawlessly. My ONE regret is that I did not get to sit and listen to them more, and like...what a regret to have! Allison was so wonderful, warm, professional, and lovely to work with. String Theory is the best and I am currently finding myself trying to plot events to book them for so I can personally experience more String Theory! Thank you so much to Allison and her team for making our wedding the stuff dreams are made of!

I have over 20 years of experience playing my saxophone and have been all over the country playing on stages big and small. I also have a full band, and I DJ's too! Contact me for more details! ​Thank you!

So much fun! The Saxophone was amazing! Bradley kept the dance floor full at all times! He listened to what the bride wanted and delivered. The music and the energy made it a FUN NIGHT! I (mother of the bride) submitted a request on thumbtack, Bradley contacted me right away. I told him I had to share his information with the bride (my daughter), knowing he also plays the saxophone was the selling point. So she agreed and after several messages we hired him for the job. NO REGRET! Everyone had a great time. Especially at the end of the evening. For some reason when he played Mr. Brightside, the family went nuts and the dance floor was full again. Great time.

Think Big has been performing in the Central Florida area for nearly 20 years, and has performed at nearly 100 weddings during that time. We play music from many different genres as there are people of all ages and musical tastes at every wedding. We play music from Classic Rock, Country, Country Rock, MoTown, Funk, Blues, Soul and more! Band members have played with the likes of Don Henley (Eagles), The Coasters, The Platters, Willie Nelson, The Ides of March, Molly Hatchet, and many more. We can perform ceremony music, cocktail hour music, dinner music, and, of course, upbeat reception/dance music.

We booked Think Big to play at our wedding in Treasure Island, FL and we were absolutely blown away. They were such good musicians and played the absolute best music all night. All our guests are still talking about how good they were. Colin was so nice and so professional all throughout the booking process. They are one of the best bands I have ever seen. I would recommend them to anyone booking an event or just needing a good band. We danced all night long and they rocked so hard. We loved having them play at our wedding. Thank you Think Big for making our wedding so perfect and wonderful!
