If you are contemplating the price, let me just say it is worth every penny and more! These guys went above and beyond their roles. DJ Scott was amazing and made all of our emo dreams come true. He rolled with the flow and even helped us get back on track when our timeline got messed up! The photobooth was also worth every bit and we even got the cutest photo book with all the fun pictures everyone took!! Keith helped so much dealing with our crowd, wild nephew and even helped hang our neon sign! We will recommend this company to everyone and for sure use them for future events! Thank you so much Scott and Keith for making our day even more special. Much love guys

We had the pleasure of experiencing DJ Smooth B and his incredible team at our wedding, and we must say, it was an unforgettable experience that exceeded all expectations. From start to finish, DJ Smooth B and his team provided top-notch service that truly made the event one to remember. Upon our initial meeting, it was evident that Brodrick aka DJ Smooth B was a professional who takes his craft seriously. Can we mention that we interviewed seven DJs before selecting DJ Smooth B, and it's clear why he was the clear choice. His attention to detail and commitment to creating the perfect atmosphere for their special day was truly commendable. The setup was impeccable. DJ Smooth B and his team arrived early to set up the DJ services, uplighting, photo booth, 360 booth, and custom dance floor. Everything looked stunning, and the addition of cold sparks added a touch of magic to the celebration. The ambiance they created was nothing short of spectacular. As the evening progressed, DJ Smooth B proved to be a master at reading the crowd and keeping the energy high on the dance floor. The music selection was spot on, and they played all the hits that we had requested, and then some. The guests couldn't resist the urge to dance, and the party never missed a beat. One thing that stood out to us was the seamless transition between songs and the way DJ Smooth B effortlessly kept the groove going. It was clear that he understands how to keep a party alive and ensure that everyone has a fantastic time. We found ourselves unable to sit down for dinner as the music was just too good to resist. Overall, hiring DJ Smooth B was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. His professionalism, talent, and dedication to his work shone through every moment of the event. I can confidently say that DJ Smooth B is the best wedding DJ out there, and I have been to a lot of weddings with 10 siblings which eight of them are married. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their event and keep the party going all night long. In conclusion, if you're searching for a phenomenal wedding DJ who knows how to create a memorable experience and keep the dance floor packed, look no further than DJ Smooth B. Trust me, you'd be missing out if you didn't choose him for your special day. Thank you, DJ Smooth B, for an unforgettable evening filled with music, laughter, and joy.

We were hesitant to hire a DJ for our wedding, we weren’t sure we really needed one, but wow we were wrong! Cory made everything so seamless, from start to finish. From my initial communications, we felt at ease with Cory. He was definitely the easiest vendor to work with out of everyone! He made sure he was providing exactly what we envisioned for music and audio, rather than what he might typically prefer. I even made the comment to him after the ceremony that I hadn’t even noticed he was there, he was just in the background ensuring the ceremony went off without a hitch! For the reception, he announced everything professionally and easily, and really did a great job playing songs that fit the mood. His work was absolutely worth his rate and more, a great value and very reasonable! I’m looking forward to recommending him to our friends and family, and working with him for our next bash as well! Thanks Cory!!

Uptown Drive was recommended by our event planners, and we were absolutely blown away by their performance! Our team did most of the interfacing with the band, but Greg was incredibly responsive on the few occasions we did reach out directly. Pretty much everyone who attended our party commented on the band being the best they've ever experienced. They selected great music based on our feedback, they deftly guided the flow throughout the night, and they kicked it up a notched and really got the party going after dinner. We planned to lean on a live band to be our primary entertainment, and they exceeded our expectations!

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.

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!

Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!

DJ American Rob and his team are DREAM vendors. In this new wedding boom, it's hard to find vendors that have such a genuine kindness and love for what they do so much that you'll never feel just like a client. Anytime I needed a question answered or my family had some crazy song idea, DJ Rob made it happen. He even helped my dad mix a special version of a song for my father daughter dance. Then we had some last minute decisions and he was so go with the flow and made me feel 10000% confident. Even when some of my wedding drama appeared, Rob kept a level head and made it a point to check on me and band around me like a friend. He brought the beats and blended all the music well cause we had everything from Tejano, to 80s r&b, to 200s emo music and it all felt like the perfect dream. It's vendors like Rob and his team (I forget the photobooth assistants name but she was so fun and sweet too!) That makes brides and grooms dreams come true. I will be forever reccomending these kind and fun and amazing souls to anyone even considering! They are truly more than vendors.

But that's not all—Primetime Booth also provided DJ services, and let me tell you, they MADE the party. The DJ kept the dance floor packed all night with a perfect mix of tracks that catered to everyone's tastes. The energy was electric, and our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Primetime Booth's team was professional, friendly, and incredibly accommodating. They went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to enjoy our special day without a hitch.

I was a little iffy about having a band, I was so worried about people not dancing or not having a fun time. Boy was I wrong. This band was absolutely incredible!!! I had so many people asking me their name and commenting on how fun it was. My sister told me she has never been to a wedding where people never left the dance floor. The band really made this wedding amazing. Due to covid we only had about 53 people total and we were so worried for nothing. The band had me the groom up on stage singing and dancing with them. We had gone through their list of songs and marked which ones we liked/disliked, but with all the craziness of the wedding I never got around to sending it. This made me even more nervous because I hoped they wouldnt play things no one liked. Again, so wrong. They knew exactly what to play, they played classic rock, current pop, 90's music, some Motown, R&B, Sinatra for dinner set. They knew what would get people dancing. My husband who is a huge Alabama fan got pulled up on stage to sing sweet home Alabama. He loved it! Mark was incredible as well. He never minded to talk with me on the phone about our goals/worries for the wedding. He gave me the best piece of advice that if the bride and groom are having fun, the rest will follow and he was definitely right. We both agreed all night that this was the perfect choice. We were absolutely blown away with them! Definitely a must book for your wedding.

Pop It! is a full-service wedding and event band that provides everything needed to keep your crowd dancing! Our packages include a full PA setup, dance floor lights, MC, and an irresistible groove. We can provide musical entertainment ranging in size from 2-5 musicians for ceremonies, cocktail hour, receptions and more.

Pop it! Played a wedding at our venue. The dance floor was packed on the first song and stayed that way the entire night. The tune selection was perfect, the party sang along as they danced. The band had a DJ/sound guy who played the classic line dance tunes while the band was on break so the dancing was non stop. The photos of the reception are all smiles on the dance floor. Very fun. Good people, very talented, profesional communication, highly recommended.

Ryan Shephard was an absolute pleasure to work with as our wedding singer. From our first call, his communication was thorough and consistent. He was incredibly kind and made the whole planning process easy. On the day of, his quality of work was detailed, he was very prepared, and he had fun positive attitude. Ryan learned multiple songs just for our wedding and traveled a long distance to be there, which we really appreciated. Everyone at our wedding LOVED him! His voice was amazing and really added the vibe we wanted to our wedding. He was also flexible with using songs we wanted from Spotify and playing live music. We couldn't have asked for more. He is phenomenal!

  • Serves Portland, TX for additional fees

Music is our life and nothing brings people together more than music and celebration. We started with the idea of helping people celebrate the best day of their lives without having to sacrifice their first born to do so.

We were initially on the fence about getting a DJ versus simply using a Spotify playlist for our reception, but James made us so glad we chose him. Months out from the wedding, James sent us a link to a portal, which let us start putting together lists of must play songs, play if possible songs, and do not play songs, which made for a fun break when other wedding planning got stressful. About a week out from the wedding, James had a call with us where he went over our timeline and what all announcements we were wanting him to make as the MC. He pointed out to us (and was 100% right about) some issues that we didn't even know we might have and how to address them. Only a few days before the wedding, when we realized that the version of the song we had learned our choreography to for our first dance was edited down from the full version, we emailed James in a panic about what to do. He reassured us that he would find a way to make it work and ultimately edited his own version for us. On the day of the wedding, James arrived early, fielded tech issues that arose from our venue like a champ, and made sure everyone had a great time. Our guests, both old and young, complimented what a great job he was doing throughout the night. The photo booth that we rented through him was also a big hit. James makes sure that in addition to the printed photos at the event, you get a digital copy of all of the photos taken as well. It was fun getting to go back days later and look at all the pictures of our guests enjoying themselves. If we could give James and Ace's High Productions six stars, we would. We can't recommend him highly enough.
