We were thrilled with the Bluewater Kings Band for our wedding! Owen was fantastic to work with - he was prompt, organized, and enthusiastic in his communication. We splurged on adding a sax player and were so glad we did - it really brought an extra layer of talent and fun. The band absolutely nailed our preferred musical vibe. As soon as the music started, the dance floor filled up and stayed packed all night long! The set list matched our taste perfectly. The band brought a highly professional yet fun energy that kept the party going. Their musicianship was top-notch and their song selection had something for all our guests to enjoy.

When it comes to weddings, there's only one chance to get it right! It's why I care so much about each wedding and that I treat each one as if it were my own! THAT is the kind of passion I give each and every one of my couples to not only ensure the vision for their day comes to reality but that their ONLY 'responsibility' on their wedding day is to celebrate with their family and friends! Quite frankly, I LOVE weddings and I consider it an honor to be part of their day & assisting them in creating lifelong memories (not to mention the amount of trust that my couples place upon me).

Awarded Best of Zola
Jack was a true partner during our wedding planning and on our day. He worked with us on song selection (there were a couple of songs we drew a blank on), helped fine-tune the schedule of events and worked with our photographer and venue to iron out the details and make sure they were all on the same page. We kept the song selection up to him as much as we could, providing some "dos" and "don't" and he did the rest. We got several comments on the music after the fact from both friends and family, so he managed to please both crowds. I'd highly recommend Jack to anyone.

The Party Pleasers team is made up of over 25 DJs and Event Decorators that can fit any style of event. We look forward to discussing your event and help design a celebration that captures your unique vision.

Overall music selection and sound was great, maybe a little too loud a some points but that may also be due to speaker placement. There was an issue with the DJ going to the wrong site initially. Our venue had 3 ceremony/reception sites, and he set up across the street at one of the other sites. This caused a delay in set up, but our coordinator and site manger were able to help him. I don’t think he verified with anyone when he arrived that he was at the correct wedding before setting up. Ceremony music sound was great. Microphones were provided which was great so everyone could hear us and our officiant

Josh had our whole wedding dancing all night. With really creative mixing, he was able to blend in so many different genres seamlessly. Most importantly, he was really attuned to the crowd's energy and was great about knowing when to play a song in full and when to just tease us with quick samples. If you're looking for someone who really listens to what you want, instead of playing just the same 30 songs you hear at every wedding, Josh is your DJ. The music selection process is easy - in addition to check-in calls and zooms, he uses an app, so you can build you can craft the perfect playlist ahead of time. We both really enjoyed adding songs to our app throughout the planning process. But the best was actually hearing the way he was able to combine so many of our favorite songs for our reception party. He had all our of guests (ages ranging from 10 to over 80 years old) dancing all night long. Our first comment from friends the day after our wedding was about how fun they had on the dance floor and how great the music was! I also think its important to add that Josh handled our wedding ceremony music, cocktail music, dinner music and sparkler exits as well- he provided mics, sounds systems, everything we needed, and all of those were executed perfectly. He was on time for set-up, very respectful of the rules/guidelines in places at our historic venue, and he collaborated really well with our other vendors to make sure everything looked and sounded perfect. Also he is just the nicest guy- really responsive on email and genuine- which was so, so appreciated during tho last few chaotic months of wedding planning. 10/10 - highly recommend.

I've known Ryan almost as long as I have been in the industry. The services he provides go well above & beyond just being a DJ! He cares about his clients & giving them the experience they are dreaming of. With a wide range of add ons from uplighting to customized song lists you can tailor your experience in partnership with him. In an industry where we see 20-30 new couples a year it means so much to him that you leave feeling like you were cared for but more importantly that you're family. From a vendor perspective Ryan adamantly believes in being part of the team, works swell with video + photo teams (like myself) to ensure we are staying on schedule for the day, but that none of your essential moments are captured!
