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.

DNA Premium Event Services LLC 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Merkel, TX

The DNA difference truly is our unique – boutique influenced approach to event design, without using outdated techniques, cheesy interaction skits, pre-set playlists or shiny blow up props at our functions. DNA Premium Event Services was created and managed by real DJs, with solid history in the nightlife, remix production and radio mixshow industry areas, who are incredibly creative, talented, passionate and of course dynamic. For us… every event is very different, and we truly believe that you deserve a unique experience that reflects your style, your tastes and what you envision as perfect.

Nate took on so many roles throughout the entire evening for my wedding on 11/20/20. One in particular was helping us find the bustle to my wife’s wedding dress. Nate noticed us having trouble finding the bustle to pin her dress up and stepped right in and took over without any hesitation. Something he didn’t have to do, but saw an opportunity to help and did it any way. Nate is one of the most relatable and professional guys you will ever met when finding a DJ for your event. Nate gives this genuine connection that makes you feel comfortable from the first moment you speak with him. He’s knowledgeable, patient, and will keep you on task leading up to your event to ensure your night is nothing short of amazing. Nate offers so many fun and creative services that you simply cannot find in many DJs. I strongly believe that my wedding night wouldn’t have been as amazing if Nate wasn’t involved. Nate brought the HEAT and kept the party on its feet from beginning to end! I truly wish I could relive my Wedding Day, but happy that Nate made it memorable for my wife and I to cherish for the rest of our lives. Nate, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Music is an extremely stressful thing but Lisa and her son made this very easy for us. She was patient and welcoming and more than happy to tailor the production to what we needed including a no requests policy. She was also helpful with the ceremony despite us not originally booking additional sound equipment. We got plenty of previews so nothing was unexpected and she was happy to keep an eye on us to make sure the first dance was timed perfectly and wound down at the right time. Thank you!

We had a great experience with GDG Elevated Events!! From the first conversation with Gabriel we knew it would be a great fit! Gabriel always took his time talking to us, explaining everything, and helping with the timeline since this was the first wedding we’ve planned. We really liked the app as it was very helpful and user friendly. The setup and the DJ booth was beautiful along with all the uplighting they provided. We wanted a beautiful, special, and super fun night and that’s exactly what we got with this company! Our DJ James was awesome! He was the perfect fit for us and really meshed well with the vibe we wanted. He was so knowledgeable about all kinds of music genres and kept everyone entertained all night!

DJ Phil Does It

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

I'm an event DJ serving Central Texas with more than 18 years of experience rocking parties. I love taking requests and work long hours to custom tailor music selections to the mood of my clients' events. I bring all of my own gear so, if you give me a power outlet, I can start a dance party. I also MC receptions and can run sound and microphones for ceremonies and presentations.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Phil was a great DJ, definitely book him! He was professional, on time, and prompt in his responses during the time leading up to our wedding. His system on deciding songs was easy, and he was helpful in figuring out what we may want as we weren't super helpful for our wedding choices when first meeting with him. The day of our wedding he was great for the ceremony, and able to provide sound in multiple locations due to a change of weather. For the dancing, he had a knack for feeling our wedding crowd and getting everyone dancing! So many of my friends say they haven't danced that much and how much fun it was--I have DJ Phil to thank for that. I had a friend sing a song, which Phil set up easily, and he took requests and was patient with crazy requests. He also seemed to really enjoy DJing. I had so much fun I had blisters on my feet the next day from dancing! He made the music at our wedding great, thanks Phil!!!

Sanchez Entertainment

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

My name is Rogelio (Roger) Sanchez aka DJ Konkocshun. It all began while in H.S., a buddy of mine (I consider him my brother) was a DJ and I used to tag along and even help him mix some tracks. After H.S. I joined the Marine Corps and after several years, I continued to get the itch of mixing music and missed playing on the turntables. After an experience we had with another DJ for a personal event, I decided to give it a go. I love mixing different genres of music and the excitement of people enjoying themselves while on the dance floor or bobbing their heads in their seats. I practice my craft daily to present a beautiful experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Rogelio made the whole process for our wedding such a breeze and really listened to what we wanted in our music selection for the whole event. He worked effortlessly with our coordinator and kept a great mix of music the whole night. I highly recommend!

Halisen made sure we ate, they went above and beyond and I really don't have words to explain how amazing they were. They came to the rehearsal and helped run the show, Dale was very accommodating and didn't act annoyed with my very long email of songs, haha. Even my step-dad was impressed. They know what they are doing and I am so grateful for them. Thanks so much for playing late, I know you guys were tired! We had a blast thanks to y'all! They are genuine, kind and I would hire them again with no hesitation. Thanks so much for everything, DeMann's! I hope your daughter's wedding this weekend is a blast!

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can’t begin to describe how amazing this band was. When we hired them after a recommendation/commendation from another couple who called Blind Date the highlight of their wedding, we thought maybe they were being hyperbolic, but we knew at least the band would be good enough for a good time. Never in my life could I have imagined a band was capable of being as great as they were. From the beautiful jazz dinner set (it felt like I was listening to the jazz greats themselves), to the best two hours of dancing I’ve ever enjoyed in my life, Blind Date blew us away. Every single guest commented on how great they were. They were beyond fantastic and we can’t thank them enough for making our wedding so perfect. They brought us on stage for the MOST electric moments of the whole wedding--I felt like I was doing my own Vegas residency show. The LIGHT setup they bring themselves made the whole thing feel like a rock concert. It was the best day of my entire life and I can't imagine having a different band. I want to become a groupie for this band and start crashing other weddings they're playing at. BOOK THIS BAND! Their set list is PHENOMENAL, they learned a new song for our first dance and BLEW US OUT OF THE WATER with it. Everything was perfect. We're going to be talking about this band for as long as we're talking about our wedding. I am so beyond glad a referral from a couple we trusted turned into booking the best wedding band in the world.
