Your wedding deserves a packed dance floor and a stress-free experience from a friendly & reliable top-tier wedding pro! I know planning a wedding can be a lot; I make it easier for you. I’ve been creating memorable experiences for all couples and all love, for over 17 years; where I shine is matching the music to your vibe while also reading the crowd, using real DJ transitions to keep the dance floor energy up, interacting with the crowd, and working with all the other vendors to keep the event running smooth. Check out my reviews to see what couples are saying. LGBTQ+ friendly; nothing but love here!

Where do I even start? Marty is just the best. Planning a wedding by myself was very stressful. I am from a Persian background, and I wanted to have an American wedding while also implementing my culture. From the moment that I spoke with Marty, I knew he was the perfect DJ for our wedding. He has a calming and reassuring energy that not only assured me we could get any type of music we like, but he helped me plan my entire timeline. Every single time I had a concern, he would have a solution. He used an app that allowed me to add the music I wanted, including Persian music. At our walk-through, he worked with our other vendors to make sure the layout was perfect for us on our wedding day. Then finally on the wedding day we got to see how great he really is. He was checking in and helping keep us on schedule. When we got to the dance floor he mixed Persian music with American songs so perfectly that there was not a single person sitting down. It was so awesome seeing all of my relatives and all of my husband’s family dance together. And there is no way this could have been possible without Marty Nightengale! Everybody loved him, and I would hire him again and again and again.

She was very responsive, communicative, and has a super easy online portal that helps capture every detail you could think of for the event music. She’s also a lovely human in general to work with. We went with the approach of choosing the major songs and providing general recommendations around genres and let the expert handle the rest. We had multiple guests tell us they could not stop dancing or singing along the entire night. We had every age group on the dance floor. If it’s any indication - my photographer had to remind me a few times to stop bouncing around so she could get some good still shots. In our opinion, it doesn’t get any better than DJ Krystyle.

Your event is unique and special, so why should your entertainment be anything less? Combining the latest and greatest technology with super talented entertainers as Wedding DJs in Greensboro, NC allows us to create custom tailored experiences for each of our clients.

Fusion Sound And Lighting (DJ Rick) was a fantastic choice for our wedding DJ. From the very beginning, they were professional, punctual and extremely helpful in understanding our vision for the music and entertainment. On the day of the wedding, they brought an energized and fun vibe that kept our guests dancing all night long. They really took the time to ensure the music and flow of the event matched our style and preferences, and their attention to detail was evident in how seamlessly they executed the timeline. We couldn't have asked for a better team to keep the party going and make our special day so memorable.

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.

Hi, I am the founder and CEO of Boss Playa Productions, a wedding DJ service that has been running since 2003.

I am a crowd reader and controller so whether it's 10, 20, or 1000 people, I can get your guests dancing until they sweat, LITERALLY! I look forward to seeing you on the dance floor!

DJ Creativity(Antonio) was very responsive and energetic with Zoom calls leading up to our big day and tailored questionnaires to make sure our interests were met. We loved our ceremony and Antonio’s transitions and mic management was so clear and perfect. We did not have an easy venue to manage. We had two different sites and a very small setup window. He was able to make it work and after a few challenges and tweaks, he pulled off the vibe of the reception and made that dance floor full. Very respectful and positive person to work with. We appreciate what he added to our perfect day.

Greg Keys & Co

  • Offer

Our wedding band is a group of 5 best friends with BIG personalities. The whole musical aspect of the industry was run by cookie-cutter wedding bands that looked so much more corporate than artistic. So many couple's feel trapped into choosing a band that would simply play songs, but not give the crowd a performance. The reception is meant to be high energy, interactive, and engaging. As artists that tour the country and live the music we play, we truly believe we are the best in the country at providing our weddings with something real. Something that they can remember and take home with them for years to come.

Our # 1 fave band for our clients. Greg's extensive song list and ability to get a crowd rocking is why our wedding couples love him! Rock On! Mike Winship, Owner Lead Planner www.CharlestonWeddingPlanner.com

Our bands cover Top 40 hits, fiery versions of Soul, smooth versions of Motown, elegant jazz classics, toe-tapping bluegrass, and country - it all exists among the performers we work with!

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. 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!

Their performances are a seamless mix of classic and modern hits from across genres and decades.

We absolutely couldn't be happier with our choice of wedding bands. From start to finish, they were phenomenal! Their professionalism was evident in every interaction. Planning a wedding was difficult. Matt made planning the music easy. Communication was quick and clear, every single time. This band is a true professional team. On our wedding day, they arrived early, set up quickly, and were ready to go. We had plenty of day-of problems. Our dressing rooms weren't unlocked. The cake was an hour late. Two groomsmen had suits that didn't fit. Hair was 45 minutes late. If Jeremy & Matt had issues, we never knew about it. We are so grateful. The moment they began playing, the atmosphere was transformed. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the energy as the night moved forward. Jackie, their female vocalist, had a powerful voice that captivated every guest from song one. Their lively and engaging performance had everyone on their feet, dancing and singing along. Each band member is exceptionally talented. They even took the time to learn and perfectly execute our special song request, which made our first dance unforgettable. Guests are still raving about the band and how much fun they had. If you're looking for a wedding band that will elevate your special day and leave a lasting impression, look no further. This group is simply outstanding and worth every penny. They create a harmonious and vibrant sound and are truly impressive. Thank you for making our wedding day magical and filled with joyous memories.

Mixology was started in 2017 when owner, Roman Brown, saw a need for more entertaining and energetic wedding DJ's in the Carolinas after moving from New York. Their goal is to help make your wedding night as special and fun as you'd imagined it would be.

Roman was awesome! We had our dream wedding 5/4/2024 and are still getting complements on our DJ and music! From the beginning Roman was so easy to work with. His communication skills and professionalism throughout the planning process was stellar! From the ceremony, to cocktail hour to reception there was never a dull moment.
