I attended a wedding where Funk Almighty was the band and it was a great time. Being around countless weddings, whether attending or working, I can say that Funk Almighty brought the beats but also kept traditions of a wedding alive. They provided all of their own equipment and have the knowledge to troubleshoot if necessary. Definitely recommend!

I started DJing in 2008 and learning the ends and outs of the mechanics. In 2010, weekly, I was performing in a club for a local rap artist until I eventually, around 3 months later, expanded and started booking my own weddings and parties. In 2021 I decided to officially open a business in hopes to meet and work with more couples like you!

Infoered Media, LLC was a fantastic choice for our DJ services. Their communication was fast and consistent throughout the planning process, which really put us at ease. They kept the flow of the event going seamlessly and mixed the music perfectly to keep our guests dancing all night long. The energy they brought was exactly what we were looking for, and we couldn't be happier with the value they provided. We highly recommend Infoered Media, LLC to any couple planning their wedding, or event.

Alex was very specific on what his expectations were, which really put us at ease. During the planning process, he was extremely helpful in helping us make some decisions regarding what to have and what not to have. Alex surpassed both of our expectations on the actual day. The wedding flow was extremely smooth and he worked with us for our playlist. I would 15/10 recommend Alex. He is an amazing DJ for all your needs. Thanks again Alex!
