Jay absolutely made our wedding!! The dance floor was packed the entire time. He understood the vibes and read the room so well. Leading up to the day, Jay was super communicative — answering every question we had and keeping us on track to make sure every music detail was thought about. Plus, the app he provided for planning made song selection and special requests seamless, collaborative and super manageable! The DJ / instrumental fusion he offers brought the dance floor to the next level! Guests are still raving about the sax player, who played 2 songs for us during dinner and then stayed on the dance floor the entire night! Would 110% recommend Jay and his team for any wedding or event!

Gemma is truly a master at her craft--to the point I've had multiple people come to me after the wedding telling me that I had an awesome DJ! We loved that Gemma tailored the dinner and afterdinner music to our vision and I think she really understood us as people. I knew from the first conversation with her with her bubbly energy that she'd be the perfect person to work with. She truly listened to our needs or any concerns we had and also was able to think of things we hadn't since she has so much experience. She also was able to help us out with some lighting needs which was fantastic. Her energy and toptier skills really brought the whole day together and we can't thank her enough!! I'm still so honored that Gemma went so above and beyond for us-- not only did she DJ but she also was there earlier in the day to do our wedding film on Super8! Overall such a cool and unique service. Don't even hesitate booking her, you found the one! 3

Jeremy was absolutely phenomenal to work with. We had some pretty specific requests alongside several different voices directing our day, and he was effortlessly able to read the room and navigate through all of it, all the while providing banger after banger to keep us all dancing the night away. We may be biased about our own night, but coming from a fellow musician, Jeremy understood how to control the ebb and flow of the evening better than any DJ we've ever experienced at a wedding. Our other musician friends in attendance also definitely noticed. Highly recommend!

My husband and I had one non-negotiable for our wedding - to have a live band. We went to the BVT showcase and immediately fell in love with Experience. They were a little bit out of our budget, but we decided to book them anyways and cut back on other things and let me tell you ...they were worth every single penny!!! Luke is the nicest, coolest guy and so great to work with!! He listened to every request we had leading up and I truly didn't think about a thing during the wedding day - he had our timeline completely under control and kept us on track (and if we were running behind I still have no idea because he's that good!!). The band is INCREDIBLE and had our guests on the dance floor all night!! I realized at the end of the night I never even changed out of my heels into my white sneakers because that would have meant leaving the dance floor. Our guests are still telling us how amazing the band was and several of them even got their card for their own events! Having Experience was the best decision we made!! Thank you to all of you for making our wedding day so memorable and fun!!

Daryle (DJ D Mac) created the exact vibe we were craving for our wedding. After multiple postponements due to COVID, our guests were ready to dance and celebrate like never before. We asked Daryle to create a dance-club-like atmosphere where everyone could let loose—and he absolutely delivered. Every time we asked our guests what they thought of the wedding, they raved about how incredibly fun the dance floor was. From start to finish, Daryle was organized, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. His deep understanding of mixing music and his uncanny ability to read the room and adjust to the energy were particularly impressive. We also had a few unique requests, like including a drag queen lip sync performance. Daryle coordinated seamlessly with our performer, making it a highlight of the night. He also went above and beyond to ensure our first dances were perfectly timed and elegantly handled. If you’re looking for a DJ who will elevate your event, we couldn’t recommend DJ D Mac more highly. He made our wedding unforgettable, and we’re so grateful for his talent and professionalism.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Essex, MD

If you’ve had a good time at a wedding or event in the DC/Maryland/VA area, chances are it was DJ Casanova that got you moving. You know him as DJ Casanova, but around the office, we just call him Jamie. Back in the day, he was just a child of immigrants recording his favorite songs over his parent’s cassette tapes (sorry Mom and Dad) so he could listen to them on his prized Walkman. Jamie entered the DJ field in 2009, and before long he was spinning something at a different party every week. Pretty soon he realized that sharing his love of music with like-minded folks was more than just a hobby, it was a gift.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Casanova was recommended to us by our venue and we could not have been happier with our decision to have him DJ our wedding reception. He is extremely organized and responsive. He shared a wedding planning sheet with us that allowed us to build our timeline and reception playlist. He also allowed us to create our own playlists for cocktail hour and dinner music (though he has some of his own playlists that we 'stole' some songs from too). What really made DJ Casanova stand out was that he met with us virtually (we don't live in the DMV area) multiple times before our wedding. His main focus during the first session was to learn about us as individuals and a couple, as well as our families. The second session was focused on logistics, name pronunciations, etc. He was extremely receptive to our requests and made the wedding day exactly what we wanted. Many of our guests asked us how we found our DJ because they were so blown away with the musical selections he played and how friendly he was during the reception. We give our highest recommendation!

From the moment Imani Entertainment arrived, they were professional, punctual, and ready to make our wedding reception a night to remember. They kept the dance floor packed all evening with a great mix of classic and contemporary hits that had all our guests singing and dancing. When we needed the microphones for toasts, they were there instantly to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their photobooth was also a huge hit, providing endless entertainment and hilarious photos for our guests to take home as keepsakes. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ service to complete our special day.

Anthem String Quartet played for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and we highly recommend them! We are sci-fi geeks and were thrilled to see that they had some movie and TV themes in their repertoire list that fit our taste, plus they accommodated some special requests. The musicians were professional on site and sounded wonderful - lots of compliments from our guests. Our processional and recessional were timed perfectly. Chelle was responsive and super easy to work with during the planning process. We had a very DIY wedding and she had some great suggestions that were helpful. Anthem is a fantastic choice for string music - they also have solo, duo and trio options, and a huge repertoire covering any kind of music you can think of!

We picked some unique songs for our processional that typically have heavy orchestration involved but Bryan was able to arrange them to sound beautiful on just guitar. The bossa nova they played for our cocktail hour was also incredible, everyone loved it! Such great style and energy all around, we couldn’t have asked for better live music on our special day.

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.

Kelton from Marquee Artists is awesome - he killed it dj-ing for the clients, the dance floor was non-stop going nuts the whole time! His demeanor is super low-key and easy going, and he was very easy to work with, which means a lot in this field. Weddings have lots of moving parts and can be chaotic, but having vendors that are kind and willing to work as a team makes the day go a whole lot smoother. The couple had lots of requests for songs in completely different genres, but he managed to keep the party going with no awkward pauses and seamless transitions. I highly recommend hiring him if you want someone that's going to work well with everyone and make sure to light the dance floor on fire!

Tyler Preston is the real deal. Professional, responsive, punctual and a gem to work with. And then there’s his performance, which was absolutely spot on. So much so, typically sedentary guests were chewing up the dance floor. As the owner of a talent agency, I’ve worked with a number of artists, both celebrity and regional. Tyler is among the best of them. Book him and you’re sure to have a worry-free, high-energy experience.

LRO is simply amazing. (They were the first vendor we hired.) They are so easy to work with and really want your wedding to be amazing! They are an insanely talented bunch and not the “typical wedding band.” We’ve been to several weddings where they played (including our own) and each time is fantastic, so they always hit the mark. If you want a wedding where everyone is on the dance floor, the energy is high, and people will talk about your day for literally years to come ... hire LRO. If you don’t, you’re making a mistake.

  • DJ
  • Serves Essex, MD

From DJing college house parties to packed clubs to music festivals, I've experienced the thrills of creating EPIC events through music. Weddings should be no different, but it requires a personal touch that brings out the stylistic uniqueness of each couple. I still remember having my own epic wedding dance party with my friends & family 10 years ago, and my goal is to give our couples the same! Remixologists is our team of talented like-minded DJs who share the client-focus & music versatility that I believe make the difference between having a good wedding and an AMAZING ONE for the ages!

The Party Can't Stop Won't Stop! I need to think of an excuse to gather friends and family together just so that I can have DJ Taiga spin again. Simon was incredibly responsive from the get go and organized – he had a special spreadsheet and website to organize the various aspects of the day and when/if music will be needed). And that’s just who he is from a business standpoint. In terms of his abilities as a DJ, let’s just say the dance floor was packed all night and people were disappointed the night had to end. He even got my dad to dance; it was literally the first time in my life I’ve seen my dad dance. SIMON’S THAT GOOD. I gave him a list of songs/genres and he took those inspirations to create a dance mix that was, as the youths call it, LIT AF.

We are always attentive to your needs and requests and work with you every step of the way.

Can't say enough great things about Terrace DJ. Professionalism and quality all the way. Even from the planning stage right up until the last song of the night, Terrace DJ did not miss a beat (no pun intended) They couldn't have been easier to work with. It's like they just knew what we wanted. They read the room, kept the crowd moving and our guests didn't leave the dance floor. A for Terrace DJ. Highly recommend!
