Eric was awesome to work with from the start. He’s a true professional at his work and is extremely personable. He really understood the vision for our wedding and fulfilled it ten times over. We used Eric for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and for all three he exceeded our expectations. The music was phenomenal and the lighting looks amazing in pictures. He helped us host a great party, was receptive to all of our song requests and preferences, and checked in with us as needed before and throughout the wedding. He kept the energy up all night and knew exactly what to play when. He was also a great emcee, super likable and not the least bit cheesy or abrasive during any announcements during the reception. Everyone complimented how cool he was and what a great set he played. We cannot recommend him enough and can’t wait to party with him again!

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Jeremy for our wedding this past July 2024. We were able to setup our contract early in the year and filled out a thorough questionaire for music choices, announcements, day-of events (first dance song, anniversary dance song, etc.) which gave us a great starting direction for planning the reception. Day of was perfect. Mics were available for our officiant and ourselves at the ceremony, the music quality was great. We had told Jeremy that the songs we elected in the questionnaire were more of a palette of our music tastes and we were thrilled by our/his music choices throughout the day both during the dinner and dancing part of the reception. And for the dance portion of the night, we were blown away by that all the songs were blended and mixed seamlessly stringing the night together. He did NOT just press "go" on a playlist that played through the night be instead weaved songs and kept our party going til the very end. Without a doubt, Jeremy was perfect for our wedding and we would definitely recommend his skills for any wedding.

Welcome to our page! I'm Maurice AKA The Covenant Child, and I'm the founder and lead DJ here at TCC Productions. Since 2010, we've been rocking events across DC / Maryland / Virginia and beyond. We’ve been fortunate to DJ at company parties, live concerts, private house parties, and more. But weddings are particularly dear to us. It’s always an honor to join couples in their celebration of love. We would love to be a part of your celebration as well!

Awarded Best of Zola
I first learned about Covenant Child’s business on instagram. I liked that he had provided his DJ services for multicultural weddings, as this would be perfect for my event. I contacted him to find out his availability, and informed him about the multicultural demographics of my guests so he would have an idea of what types/genres of music to play at my wedding. He is very professional and accommodating both pre and post covid19 hardships. He is easy to talk to and always works to exceed your expectations. You wouldn't regret hiring him for your event (birthday, wedding, etc). Thank you Maurice!

Specializing in weddings (ceremony, cocktails & receptions) and private event entertainment you can be assured your working with one of the absolute best. If you need a DJ who can play ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you want - then Kelton is the one for you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Kelton from Day 1. After our initial phone call, we loved how friendly and collaborative he was about putting together the right feel for our ceremony as well as reception - he had a fabulous planning doc we used throughout the months leading up the event with several of our other vendors that helped tie everything together, thanks to Kelton. He also offered the best add-on of lights and photobooth that we could hope for that suited our budget and crossed off having to find additional vendors for twice the cost. His setup and takedown was seamless and he was super self-sufficient throughout the event which made all the day-of-coordination smooth and our coordinator spoke highly of him and his team as well. Most importantly - he kept our guests dancing and enjoying all night long, timed our ceremony music exactly as we wanted, and MC'ed the speeches with everyone's names and relationships to us pronounced (we are from South American and Indian families so that meant a lot to us) and phrased just as we'd hoped & planned for. We also reached out about 3 months after the event to see if we could get our photobooth photos sent to us to have a copy in addition to those guests printed out and he was able to help us right away. He is the best, so thankful we were able to find him in the wild planning process!

DJ D-Mac & Associates 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Kensington, MD

Based in the nation’s capital, DJ D-Mac & Associates changed the wedding DJ game nearly 20 years ago. We continue to innovate, fusing genres, filling dance floors, and bringing smiles to faces. Let's create an unforgettable experience together!

Two words best describe DJ D-Mac: Party Catalyst. I knew he was the perfect DJ for our wedding mere moments into our initial phone consultation. His knowledge and passion for many genres of music was evident from the get go, he was both personable and professional, and he had a genuine enthusiasm for our event. As someone who had a strong vision of the vibe I wanted for our wedding reception, planning the playlist with DJ D-Mac felt like the true collaborative process of my dreams. He took my must play/do not play lists and ran with them, making additional suggestions and unique mixes. He went above and beyond the call of duty in helping troubleshoot sound-related issues with the venue, making lighting suggestions, and even helping us find an excellent karaoke vendor for our after party. His personal style and the style of his DJ setup were sleek, cool, and a little retro, which only added to the wedding aesthetic. Most importantly, DJ D-Mac had an uncanny ability to read the dance floor and know which songs would keep people moving, seamlessly weaving together an eclectic dream mix of everything from '60s soul, disco, '90s R&B, and even Dolly Parton. I truly can't remember another time when I've danced so hard or so joyfully-- I had to briefly go outside to catch my breath after one particularly resplendent mix. A DJ can really make or break a wedding reception, and DJ D-Mac dazzled all of our friends and family-- many of them still mention how much fun they had dancing at our wedding more than a year later. I wish I could throw a hundred more events so I could hire DJ D-Mac to DJ-- or at least wish he could be at the helm of the turntables at every event I attend in the future.

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!
