There's nothing I love more than a great song, a dance floor, and a reason to celebrate.

Brendan was easy to work with, and did a great job assessing the vibe of our song suggestions to create a playlist that was perfect for us. His live piano performance during the cocktail hour was amazing and made everything extra special! Would highly recommend him!

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

From the moment we started planning our wedding, DJ Graeme Ritchie stood out as an exceptional DJ. His communication was always responsive, focused, helpful, and professional, and he did a great job our putting our minds at ease throughout the entire process. On the day of our wedding, Graeme went above and beyond - he was fun, high energy and helped make our ceremony and reception unforgettable. He has become a fan favorite of our guests and everyone can't stop raving about how incredible he was! Graeme listened carefully to our ideas and helped us execute them accordingly. For example, he helped us with a fun picture game on the dance floor so we could get as many photos with our guests as possible and made our wedding party entrances extra special by having each couple enter to their own song. We cannot recommend DJ Graeme Ritchie highly enough for any couple looking to have an amazing, memorable wedding celebration. 3

Mercier Music Weddings and Events

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,999
  • Serves East Providence, RI

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Shane with Mercier Music Weddings and Events was the consummate professional for our wedding entertainment. His communication throughout the planning process was personal, prompt and respectful, making us feel like valued clients. The sound quality and song selection the day-of was excellent. Shane interacted with our guests and could read the room, knowing just when to transition the music from our first dance into the next activity. He kept the style of music going that appealed to all our guests, from young to old. Shane's ability to read the room and keep all age groups engaged really made for an interactive and fun reception. We were extremely pleased with Shane's services for our special day and highly recommend Mercier Music Weddings and Events.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

He reached out a few months ahead of time and even walked us through the whole timeline in a super calm and collected way, which made us feel SO much better as we planned everything else. We even gave his timeline to the wedding venue coordinator and she asked who he was because they were so impressed!

Luke Renchan Entertainment, Inc. 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,700
  • Serves East Providence, RI

Luke’s originally started as a Record Store by the name Luke’s Record Exchange, started by Luke T Renchan. As years progressed, Luke T decided to start a Disc Jockey Company in 1983. This was an instant success. Before long, Luke T had eight employees doing events for him. Many years passed and his son Luke B showed an interest in what his father was doing. At the age of 9, Luke B would accompany his father and observing every move he made. Gradually he was allowed to make steps till he was able to do his own events.

12/10 would recommend Luke B Renchan for any DJ services you need in the future. He killed it for us on our wedding day! From the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to finishing with a killer reception. His attention to detail, calls prior the big day, and day of timeline really helped us feel comfortable with him being our DJ for our wedding. We had no issues day of. If anything we were the ones that went to take pictures during the sunset and my bride had a dress change. Luke pivoted easily in helping keep the dance floor going and re-introduced the bride and groom to the reception when we were back. He let us pick the remaining 5 songs of the reception before our encore songs. I had so many people come up to me after the wedding complimenting our DJ. Luke was absolutely amazing! 12/10 would recommend him to anyone in need for their wedding or other DJ needs. Thanks again Luke! You killed it for us!

  • Serves East Providence, RI

DJ Alex Brown has over a decade of experience providing dance floor filling DJ and MC services for weddings and events. He offers a full range of standard services for weddings such as uplighting, custom monogram, ceremony and cocktail music, and more.

Alex DJ'd our wedding on 09/10 at Bonnet Shores. He handled the sound system on the beach for the ceremony and the reception. Alex was spot-on day-of, getting all the sound right, music selection, lights, etc. He also had experience working with many of the other vendors we hired, and so he worked directly with them to coordinate. Biggest thing though was his flexibility with adding and adjusting the contract in the lead-up, and providing recommendations for music, lighting, and set-up. Alex is truly passionate about his profession, and I'd highly recommend working with him for any occasion where you need an experienced DJ.

DJ Dayglow DJed our wedding on 10/12/2024, and she was absolutely incredible!! The planning leading up to the big day was amazing, and Kara had a great way of incorporating all of our "must play" music while also making sure the vibe of the night was perfect at all times. There was a stark contrast between our slow dinnertime music and then our party dance music, which was EXACTLY what we envisioned. Everyone at our wedding agreed that it was the best music they'd ever seen at a wedding, and when I tell you the dance floor was full all night -- it is no exaggeration! On top of all of this, Kara is extremely kind and charismatic, and she did a wonderful job emceeing our reception. I couldn't recommend a greater DJ for your wedding (or any event) if I tried!

The Golden Scroll Soloists have been wowing Northeast audiences with a variety of styles for 20 years, melding familiar songs you love into an elegant string quartet experience. We helped popularize the "crossover string quartet", much like the Vitamin String Quartet, during the early days of classical crossover. Our style, now made mainstream by Bridgerton, predated the Netflix hit show by 15 years. We're ready to play for your ceremony, your cocktail hour, or maybe even your reception. Choose from a string quartet, string trio, string duo, or violin soloist. Let's start planning the soundtrack to your happily ever after!

If we could give Golden Scroll Soloists 1,000 stars we would! Kevin was extremely organized and knowledgeable in preparing for the wedding. There are soooo many song choices to choose from! The music at the ceremony was so incredibly beautiful that our priest stopped to recognize them a number of times! I could’ve listened to them play for hours—absolutely amazing! We also had them at cocktail hour at our venue and it was such a fun vibe! So many of our guests came up to us throughout the night to tell us how wonderful the strings were—they loved it! We really can’t thank Kevin and his crew enough for making our wedding truly everything we dreamed of—absolute PERFECTION!

The online planning forms made it easy to plan out our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We had several specific requests that DJ Rick was able to accommodate. We wanted classic rock for the majority of our cocktail hour and created a list of artists for Rick to work from which he played the perfect set. The music was a true reflection of us which is exactly what we wanted. We had a great time dancing the night away with our family and friends. The uplighting was beautiful and helped enhance our venue. The photo booth was worth every penny, our guests could not get enough of it! We would highly recommend Arpeggio if music is important to you! The entertainment can make or break your wedding and Arpeggio knocked it out of the park and we still have guests talking about how much fun they had at our wedding!
