Excellence!!! No complaints at all! Our ceremony was outdoors in a park and DJ Mike made sure everything transitioned perfectly. We second lined a couple blocks from our ceremony location to the reception and Geaux Big helped us figure out how to keep the music going from point A to point B seamlessly. The reception dance floor was packed all night and everyone was so upset when the night was over. Book them and don’t think twice!!! They made our wedding day dreams come true!

DJ 6th Sense is a native of New Orleans, LA. He has always had a passion for music that feeds the soul since birth. His earliest memories of deep musical inspiration were riding around with his uncle on Sundays, while listening to old school music. 6th Sense served in the USN for 10 years where he was blessed with the luxury of hearing a variety of different styles of music from different places, which translates to his unique spin on being an open-format DJ. A true fan of cultural diversity, 6th Sense sets shine when in his preferred gumbo melting pot-type environments, where his musical selections can reach out to all the people at once.

We recently had the pleasure of working with DJ Ronell for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From our first call to the last song of the night Ronell was professional, attentive, and incredibly talented. One of the standout features of our experience was how well Ronell took the time to understand our vision and preferences. He worked closely with us to curate the perfect playlist that reflected our style and kept our guests dancing all night long. The mix of songs was spot on, and he expertly read the crowd, adjusting the music to keep the energy high. Not only did Ronell bring an impressive sound system, he also created a fun and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for our celebration. His ability to engage with the guests and encourage everyone to join in on the fun was truly remarkable. We had guests of all ages on the dance floor, and it was amazing to see everyone enjoying themselves. Additionally, Ronell was punctual, organized, and handled all the logistics seamlessly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy our special day. His professionalism and passion for what they do shone through, making our wedding an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend DJ Ronell to any couple looking for a fantastic DJ who will go above and beyond to make their wedding day magical. Thank you, Ronell for helping to create the perfect soundtrack for our love story!

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.

I can not recommend Groove Factor enough!!! They are so accommodating and nice! My wedding had to be rescheduled during the pandemic and Mr. Terry could not be more helpful and encouraging. He reminded me that my wedding day would still be just as beautiful and fun no matter the date. They were SO MUCH FUN!!! They played all of the best wedding songs, and even pulled my groom and I on stage. Everyone had the best time and even some guests got on stage with them. I have had everyone from my wedding come up to me after what band I had because they loved them so much and wanted them for their wedding even if they were not engaged lol

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!
