Awarded Best of Zola
We knew after the first meeting with Thomas he was going to be our DJ. He sat with us for an hour going over every step of what to expect for our wedding during our first meeting. We discussed entry, first dance, final dance, exits, and much much more. We booked him first before all other vendors, and I feel this initial meeting and brainstorm with him really laid the foundation for what else we needed for the wedding. After this meeting we put the deposit down as we knew he would have our backs. From then on, he called once a month just to check in. Some months we just a simple "hi" and others we did have things we wanted to review. He was awesome the whole entire process and day of everyone was loving the music. After the event, he sent many photos and videos he took, which was awesome because these were candid moments no one knew were being taken but also a snippet before we got anything from our photographer/videographer. I cannot recommend Thomas enough and say to any bride or groom out there that this will be money well spent to get a night you will always remember.

We had Mike from AHE Productions as our wedding DJ, and I honestly couldn’t have chosen anyone better! His setup was one of the best I’ve ever seen—modern, sleek, and the killer lights matched our black-and-white theme perfectly. From the moment we had our planning call a few weeks before the wedding, I knew everything would run smoothly. Mike made the entire process so easy, and on the day of, everything was flawless. All the music followed our requests to a T, and our guests are still raving about the party! Mike knew exactly when to cut songs short and when to keep the energy high, plus he was fantastic at emceeing when needed. We had two grand entrances, and both were absolutely adorable and perfect. Our customized music for our choreographed first dance and serenade moment sounded incredible on the speakers. The ceremony and dinner music were also spot-on, and the entire evening flowed perfectly. Mike was worth every single dollar, and I’d recommend AHE Productions to anyone looking for a professional, fun, and reliable DJ! 10/10!

Beach Nights - Live Band & DJ Combo

  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

We’re live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We’re here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life!

Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. We also offer Photo & Video services!

Between the professionalism, the communication, down to the loving and outrageously fun atmosphere this band will create for your wedding day, what I came to rave about was their ability to turn a bad situation into a memorable one. So many “audibles” had to be called during my reception as there were coordination mishaps and the timing for just about everything went off the rails beginning with dinner. Not only did Bay Kings Band keep the atmosphere light (to where my guests noticed NOTHING), our MC essentially coached me through the remaining timeline of my reception and turned what felt like a bad trip into the most incredible party I’ve ever been to (humble brag) which just so happened to be my own wedding. THANK YOU BAY KINGS BAND ️ if I could give you a million stars I would!!!

Whether you're an already existing band looking for a saxophone player for a recording, or event planner looking for a saxophone performance or DJ to put on a fun show that includes covers, originals and dance music, I will be more than happy to provide that service for you! I have over 20 years of experience playing my saxophone and have been all over the country playing on stages big and small. I also have a full band, and I DJ's too! Contact me for more details! ​Thank you!

So much fun! The Saxophone was amazing! Bradley kept the dance floor full at all times! He listened to what the bride wanted and delivered. The music and the energy made it a FUN NIGHT! I (mother of the bride) submitted a request on thumbtack, Bradley contacted me right away. I told him I had to share his information with the bride (my daughter), knowing he also plays the saxophone was the selling point. So she agreed and after several messages we hired him for the job. NO REGRET! Everyone had a great time. Especially at the end of the evening. For some reason when he played Mr. Brightside, the family went nuts and the dance floor was full again. Great time. Thank you so much!

I recently had my wedding at the Florida Aquarium and StringKeeper Entertainment gave me everything I wanted and so much more. Elijah is truely AMAZING!. We spoke to him multiple times beforehand, came up with a wedding list, went over a timeline of the wedding, and made sure he knew exactly what we wanted and didn't want. He arrived early to the wedding to make sure everything was set up in time and working properly. Music and Audio was perfect. He even helped my husband plan a surprise song for me which included a guitar. He had to improvise a couple times because my husband can't follow directions when we entered and went into our first dance, but it all went so smoothly that you would have thought it was planned. Throughout the night he made sure everyone was out there having fun. I appreciate all the time and work he put in to making sure we had a wonderful wedding. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

J & D Productions was started years ago entertaining guest at our home and after many of our friends and family telling us we should do this for a living, we finally decided to take their advice and many years later, and after performing in 11 states, we are now located in the wonderful Jacksonville Florida Area!

Hiring a DJ is more than just finding someone who can play music. Audio goes about a cell phone and speaker. It is an investment as important as the photographer and venue. The men behind J & D Productions are more than just a DJ and his assistant. They are entertainers, organizers and guides. They work hand in hand not only with their clients but also the vendors to insure you get the day of your dreams.
