Awarded Best of Zola
Going into our wedding, our main request of our DJ was to keep people on the dance floor as much as possible throughout the night, and Herbert certainly delivered. Guests of all ages danced the night away and one of our friends even split his pants open from dancing so hard! Herbert did an excellent job of integrating our requests and music tastes with the ebb and flow of the ceremony/dinner/dancing portions of the evening. He was incredibly easy to work with and very communicative throughout the whole process!

They were extremely energetic and fun and kept the dance floor lively all night! They had an amazing set list filled with fun and upbeat songs, and also learned a few songs for us that we loved. Throughout the night and after the wedding, we received so many comments on how good, and fun the band was, and how every song they played was even better than the last!

Our wedding day was a total blur, but one of the things I remember most was dancing.... Our DJ Brian killed it and our MC Brian was a total joy from start to finish. We have very difficult and diverse family and they made everyone happy. Even our family that came from Ireland was on the floor all night.

There was never a doubt in our minds that you and your amazing team would deliver an unforgettable experience, and you absolutely did! Not only did the music for our ceremony flow seamlessly, but Will—oh my goodness, Will—was incredible! He worked tirelessly to make sure the whole event ran smoothly. His energy and professionalism kept everything on track, and he knew exactly when to turn up the vibe or bring it down to keep things flowing. He was such a key part of making sure the dance floor was packed all night long! You and Andrew worked your magic to keep that dance floor rocking, and you knew just when to push the right buttons to keep everything moving. We never had to worry about a thing. And let’s talk about Chris—he came through with those zap shot photos like a total pro! We had them in hand by the next morning, and that was such a fun surprise! YASSSS! We can’t thank Patrick enough for checking in throughout the day to make sure everything was just how we wanted it and that the music was exactly right. Your attention to detail truly made a difference. And Mike—please let him know our guests loved the photo booth! Shark-Bait-Woo-haha! It was a hit! And OMG, everyone was obsessed with our percussionist Justin! That little jumping bean is beyond talented! He brought such an incredible energy to the party, and his performance added so much life to the night. Seriously, thank you for everything. The day was chaotic, as any wedding day is, but you made sure everything ran on time and with ease. We felt so taken care of, and you helped make it one of the most memorable days of our lives.

If you are thinking of hiring a DJ for your wedding, look no further. Marcus was attentive, courteous, professional, classy, and most of all, executed to perfection. He made sure no detail was left to the last minute through constant communication and knowing exactly what questions to ask through to process putting our minds at ease leading up to the big day (mood preference, ensuring procession songs were long enough, name pronunciation etc…). He covered us from the ceremony all the way through the end of the reception. But even before that, he helped us curate our cocktail hour and dinner playlists, and then completely hit the nail on the head for the reception and dancing - adapting in real time to the crowd across a wide variety of genres. I cannot recommend Marcus enough and thank him for being such an integral part of our big day. Brooke Casey

From the very beginning, he ensured us that he would make all of our wedding reception dreams come true and he DEFINITELY executed! He kept our dance floor full the entire night, he took care of displaying home videos on a projector during the daddy/daughter and mother/son dances, we booked a trio to play live music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and all of this came out beautifully!
