Spenser was the best DJ we could have asked for. I think he was the best DJ at any wedding we have ever been to. Everyone stayed on the dance floor and the sound quality was great.

DJ Dana did our wedding on 8/31/24 and we highly recommend him! He took into account my wedding playlists, and knew when to play the right songs. It took a lot of stress out of our day. He was very early, and set up with plenty of time to spare. His speaker system and microphones for toasts worked great. He brought his own lights to add to the party and even added some to our sweetheart table to spice it up! He was very thoughtful, and even sang us L-OV-E by Nat King Cole very tastefully and casually while people were finishing dinner. Highly recommend… thank you DJ Dana!

I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures. If you are looking for a DJ who cares, gets the dance floor going and is easy to work with, BEG Event Group is it. I will be recommending them to all my clients!

Justin did an INCREDIBLE job at our wedding. His preparation and attention to detail beforehand was immaculate, as he spent over an hour with my partner and me going over the entire wedding day step by step. The sound systems were flawless- everyone could hear our vows during the ceremony and the quality of the sound during the entire day and night was exceptional. He kept our wedding very organized and was the perfect host. Regarding the music selection, he allowed us to make playlists for the cocktail hour and reception which he stuck to using beautiful transitions between songs. Our guests were dancing the entire night! All of our guests said it was the most fun wedding they had ever attended. 10/10 DJ, would definitely recommend him for any event. I included a pic of me doing the worm in my wedding dress. The dance floor was too packed so I had to do it on the side!

PK And The Mighty Seven 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Newton, MA

PK and the Mighty Seven has been celebrating with newly married couples since 2016! We were originally formed as a Jamiroquai tribute band, playing mostly music by the famed UK group along with other songs we enjoyed. Since that time, we've expanded our song list and played many weddings, which we love to do!

Awarded Best of Zola
Let me start by saying that we are not the type to write reviews for anybody - good or bad - but for the sake of future individuals/couples looking to book PK and the Mighty Seven we feel obligated to say that if you are looking for a band to entertain whatever party you are hosting you MUST choose PK and the Mighty Seven. To start, Matt was incredibly communicative and responsive during the initial planning stages, promptly responding to e-mails and joining several Zoom calls leading up to our event. We had a vision for our special day and they accommodated each and every one of our requests. On the day of they arrived early and did the necessary prep work to ensure they were fully situated to provide our guests with the night of a lifetime. They took special care to accommodate our unusual first dance request, song recommendations, and the ambiance we sought to instill. We had a wide array of guests and the overwhelmingly consistent feedback we received was that the band was AMAZING. No exaggeration - the majority of our guests said they were the best band they'd ever experienced. If you are getting married or have a special event in their area you will be doing yourselves an immense disservice not to hire them to make your evening as spectacular as you want it to be.

We can’t say enough wonderful things about this duo! From the acoustic music during our ceremony to the live set at cocktail hour and DJing our reception, they made every moment unforgettable! Having our wedding at a private family owned venue meant we had a lot of unique needs, and they handled everything with care and professionalism. Everything we asked for was met with enthusiasm and 0 resistance, they made every idea we had work! Their online form was incredibly user-friendly, guiding us through every detail and making the planning process a breeze- a planners DREAM! One of the highlights of the night was our surprise grand entrance on a tractor, which took so much coordination and precise timing—and they nailed it perfectly! Every transition felt seamless, and there was never a quiet moment, as they ensured the music flowed continuously from start to finish. They were so friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. We would recommend them 100% to anyone looking for a talented, thoughtful, FUN, and all-around amazing band/DJ.

Jay and Martha were AWESOME! Highly recommend them for DJing. They were so sweet and gifted guests a surprise towards the end of the night which was a special touch. I still get compliments for how good my wedding DJ was. I host events and parties often, I already know who to have on speed dial. They know how to set the mood and direct it throughout an event. I asked some vague requests, like "no typical white people wedding music" (e.g., Don't Stop Believin', etc.) and had drastically different genres for dinner and party portions. THEY UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT and beyond. There were actually several songs I wish I knew because I loved them so much but never heard them before, yet they were really catchy and quite the vibe.

Tom just DJ'd at my wedding last month. He was amazing!!! A top-notch professional. I live in San Diego and it was hard planning a wedding in Boston without having the ability to check things out in person. When I finally arrived in Boston a week before my wedding, Tom met with my husband, my mother, and myself. He listened to all of our opinions and made amazing suggestions. The ceremony music was perfect...the entrance music was perfect...and the reception music was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ...not to mention the great rate and kind way of making a bride feel at ease. If you are looking for a DJ for any event I would 100% definitely recommend Tom

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't recommend The 1999 enough!! We first saw them at the Thirsty Moose bar in New Hampshire. That night, we had such a good time that we decided we wanted them as our wedding band over the other more traditional soul/r&b band we had in mind. They were able to play a lot of modern rock and pop favorites for us and our friends but also throw in a few classics for our parents and older guests. They even let us help decided the final set list to ensure a wide variety of songs. Working with them was such a breeze as Rob and Alex are so incredible detailed-obsessed -- we didn't have to worry about a thing because they gave us the confidence going into our wedding that they had it under control from pre-planning to end of night. We couldn't have asked for a better band and we are now happy to call them friends for life! Such great people, amazing professionals and talented musicians.

Redline 

5.0

  • Band/dj
  • Serves Newton, MA

We can all agree that there’s something special about a live band that plays all your favorite songs. That’s Redline. We are that perfectly classic, polished, professional band that is also young, fresh, hip, with an energetic vibe that makes you want to stop the clock and dance all night! That’s Redline.

If you’re thinking about booking Redline for your wedding or, honestly, for any other event, just do it. You don’t need to keep reading; book them. If you need some more convincing, read on. In late 2021 my fiancé and I were looking for a band to play our wedding in December, 2022. Having a great, fun band was crucial to us. We came across Redline both via Instagram and via the Murray Hill talent website and we had a good feeling about them. We reached out via Murray Hill and immediately heard back from Ken. Ken was incredibly friendly in his response and sent over detail on Redline along with other bands that could potentially play for us in case we weren’t locked in on Redline. He also sent along the information for add-ons, including but not limited to uplighting, photo booths, and additional band members (you have to at least consider having someone walking around ripping the saxophone). We ended up booking Redline and the process was totally seamless; again, Ken was super helpful the whole time. We booked the cocktail duo, an 8-piece band including saxophone for the reception, and uplighting. Easy! Throughout the year, Ken was always available to field questions and would offer to have a call if it would be easier. When you’re in the middle of every other aspect of wedding planning, having someone like Ken who is organized, kind, and thoughtful makes things a LOT easier, especially if the band is important to you. All right, let’s fast forward to wedding week. We had sent over a worksheet to Ken earlier with a general outline of the night. Entrance songs, first dance song, etc. along with whether there would be a bouquet toss, cake cutting, etc. It was very detailed which will actually help you visualize how the reception will go. We walked through this with Ken step by step and worked with him to adjust accordingly. Again, with the wedding looming, this was actually a calming experience because of the confidence we had in Ken. The day of the wedding, I didn’t see Ken and the other band members until the cocktail hour because, well, you know, I was getting married. The cocktail hour duo was incredible. They set such a good vibe for the rest of the night and played a cool mix of songs. Compliments were already flowing from the guests. After the cocktail hour, Ken came to where the wedding party was getting ready for intros while guests filed into the ballroom. This was another instance of what you’re getting with Ken and the Redline crew; he worked with the wedding coordinator to get us lined up and ready, get us pumped up, and get us moving. Reception time. From the first dance I had with my now wife, to the last dance of the night (Tiny Dancer- Elton John. Yes, you were curious and yes, it was awesome) everything was perfect. The band was SO good and SO energetic. The mix of songs they played was incredible and this was a wedding where the dance floor was PACKED THE WHOLE TIME with people dancing. It was SO much fun and we still have guests complimenting how great Redline was. Following the wedding weekend, Ken reached out to us with a personalized and heartfelt note about how good of a time the band had and our overall experience together planning over the course of the year. It was just the cherry on top to what was such a wonderful experience. In summary, book Redline, just please don’t book them on the same date as whatever next big event comes my way because I want them to be there to party.

DJ Scott was the absolute best! I can’t recommend him enough. From start to finish, my experience with him was amazing - ceremony mic/music, lighting, cocktail hour music, his Magic Mirror photobooth, and of course the reception music! He’s high energy, extremely organized and very intuitive. My husband and I had two prep calls with Scott, where he walked through the wedding ceremony process all the way through to the final dance. He had ideas and options for each step of the way, while giving us space to make the final decisions. He practiced name pronunciations with us, made sure he understood the family dynamics (divorced parents), and reassured us we’d have a fun, dance filled night. While some vendor calls can be stressful, his calls always made my husband and I excited and at ease. The day off, he checked in with us a few times on key questions but otherwise he was reading the room about the music being played and what people liked and adjusting to what he saw. We had a lot of songs on the request list so Scott would often mix them together and that kept the energy up and avoided lulls where people get bored. He played all genres and styles and so there were songs for everyone. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had, how much they danced (even the people who usually don’t!), how cool the Magic Mirror was, and how beautiful the lighting/room was.

We had a wonderful experience with Press Play Entertainment as the DJ for our wedding reception. Their communication throughout the planning process was very responsive and insightful - they asked thoughtful questions to ensure they really understood the vibe we were going for. The DJ did an amazing job keeping the dancefloor packed all night long - the energy stayed high and guests of all ages were dancing. He checked in with us frequently for updates and to ensure everything continued running smoothly. His song selections were on point and he was able to feel out the crowd and transition the music perfectly from cocktail hour into dinner and then really turn up the energy for dancing.

Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

Giving her professional opinion along the way helping to make sure my day went smoothly. I felt so secure in their hands. They checked in with me regularly which is important to know that your vendor knows they are working with you and hasn't forgotten or doesn't need you to remind them or check in with them, they check in with you. Come the day of our event everything went as planned and the crowd LOVED our DJ.

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

Thank you Brick Park Entertainment and Julian for taking the trip from Boston Massachusetts to Western Connecticut to play at my daughter’s wedding.

The process of picking out songs, working on the timeline and introductions was very simple and straightforward. Everything we asked for was accommodated, even our special guest singer. Brick Park really brought the fun, so talented, it was more like a concert than a typical wedding. I would highly recommend getting the DJ to spin songs while the band takes a break.
