We were thrilled with the service we received from Signature DJs for our wedding. Kellie was quick to respond to all of our questions and always ready to help, no matter how small the request. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and complimentary throughout the entire planning process. The Signed, Sealed, and Delivered package they offer included everything we were looking for - great planning and execution on the day, an awesome DJ, Meredith, who kept the dance floor packed from the ceremony audio to the end of the night, a fun and inclusive photo booth and sparkler exit, and even a personalized monogram. Kellie and her team were hardworking, organized, and determined to make our special day perfect. We had multiple calls with Kellie leading up to the ceremony, and she provided a detailed planning guide to assist with every small detail we may have forgotten.

They most certainly delivered on their promise of No Boring Receptions and has us and our friends dancing all night! They guided the ceremony and reception with ease, and handled any time hiccups that came up without any fuss, making it a less anxious time for all. The planning suite they use is extremely easy to navigate and set s everyone up for success leading up to the big day! A little something that stood out: Our pastor that officiated our wedding is retired and had not done a wedding in 6 years, and it was the first one he had done without his wife of 57 years there with him. Devail and Nikki took time out of their busy schedule to share some video footage with our pastor so that he could show his wife. Talk about making it a personal experience!! They did this sort of thing throughout the whole process of working with them. We know this is a long review, but long story short, We cannot recommend their services enough. HIRE THEM!!!!

I'm part Wedding Planner, part DJ, part Master of Ceremonies, part Performer, part Producer, part Designer, part Therapist, part Bartender, Everything little thing I am is WHY my clients trust me and tell me that I bring an event to life and that their party was amazing because of me.

We hired Liz to be our DJ and Master of Ceremonies. What we ended up getting was a full fledge package of a wedding planner, Roast Master, DJ, Master of Ceremonies, and the most generous person I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. Not only did she make sure that everything we asked for went more than perfect. She also took control and made sure our beach front wedding was hooked up with microphones and music so everyone could here our vows and be a part of the most special day of our lives. She is a FULL PACKAGE and she is worth 5x’s more than she charges. I can honestly say that she was the main reason our wedding was so memorable. It’s been 8 years and I still have friends making comments on how much fun and excite of the whole event was. When my wife and I renew our vows on our 10th anniversary. Liz will not be hired to work the event. She will be attending as a guest. She literally turned into part of our family and is loved dearly by my wife and I.

I almost don't have the words to describe how perfect our wedding day was because of Jeremy, but I'm going to give it a go! One of the most important aspects of the evening to me and my partner was the music that would be played for our event. We spent a literal year going over what songs we wanted to have played for the big night, and Jeremy effortlessly took the playlists we provided him and made the night a HIT. I even had someone come up to me on the dace floor and say "This guy rocks! I want him at my wedding!", and if that doesn't tell you how amazing he was, I don't know what will. Truly, the best.

Bill Carroll was more than a DJ at my mom's wedding. He genuinely cared about my mom's wishes and made it clear he wanted her to have the best wedding ever. It's like he became a member of our family leading up to and during the wedding. He made the entire process SO easy. When it came to the actual wedding day, everything went off without a hitch. My favorite part was when everyone left to line up and send off my mom and her new hubby, he played one final song for just the two of them to dance to, by themselves, on the dance floor. It was so incredibly touching. I can't recommend him enough. Absolute stand up guy and a DJ who knows what he's doing! Everyone had a blast. We love you, Bill Carroll!

David was absolutely amazing for our ceremony and reception! During the build-up to the day, he gave us insightful tips and tricks to use in our planning efforts. Additionally, he was always available to answer questions that my now-husband and I had. The ambiance he created at the reception area was perfect, and I can't take much credit for that. I told him our theme, and he knew exactly what to do. It was perfect. Lastly, when I told David I wanted to dance under the stars at the night's end, he made that happen. I have wonderful memories captured from beginning to end of family and friends on the dance floor or under the stars enjoying the music and celebrating with us.

Not only did he pick out music for our dance floor that was so specific and special to us, but he also was an amazing MC throughout the day. He absolutely brought the energy up! The whole process of booking with him was so smooth and easy, and he definitely has an amazing reputation out there - even the ABC license people had heard of him and told me he was the best and they were jealous!

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.

Your wedding deserves a packed dance floor and a fun & stress-free experience from a top industry professional you can trust! I know planning a wedding can be a lot; let me make music the easiest part for you. I’ve been creating memorable experiences for all couples and all love, for over 17 years; where I shine is matching the music to your vibe while also reading the crowd, using real DJ transitions to keep the dance floor energy up, interacting with the crowd, and working with all the other vendors to keep the event running smooth.

Where do I even start? Marty is just the best. Planning a wedding by myself was very stressful. I am from a Persian background, and I wanted to have an American wedding while also implementing my culture. From the moment that I spoke with Marty, I knew he was the perfect DJ for our wedding. He has a calming and reassuring energy that not only assured me we could get any type of music we like, but he helped me plan my entire timeline. Every single time I had a concern, he would have a solution. He used an app that allowed me to add the music I wanted, including Persian music. At our walk-through, he worked with our other vendors to make sure the layout was perfect for us on our wedding day. Then finally on the wedding day we got to see how great he really is. He was checking in and helping keep us on schedule. When we got to the dance floor he mixed Persian music with American songs so perfectly that there was not a single person sitting down. It was so awesome seeing all of my relatives and all of my husband’s family dance together. And there is no way this could have been possible without Marty Nightengale! Everybody loved him, and I would hire him again and again and again.

He is prompt, personable, and helpful in all our communications, and we especially appreciated the ease of the planning process when using his app, to choose songs to play, info he needed to know as MC for our wedding night, and timeline planning. As DJ, he kept everyone on the dance floor all night, and kept the energy of the room up flawlessly. The balance between English and Spanish music was perfectly executed, and it’s clear that he knows and loves his work! As MC, he helped us to keep everything running smoothly, and make sure we were cued on time for our events. He made sure to make certain announcements in Spanish for my husband’s family as requested, which was such a nice touch. Overall, we had an amazing experience with Mike and his team, and couldn’t have asked for a better night!

Grant was absolutely phenomenal! My husband and I, along with our guests, were blown away by his talent and his exceptional ability to accommodate all of our notes and requests. He worked closely with us to ensure everything was perfect. I highly recommend him for any event or occasion. People are still talking about his performance, and our only regret is that we didn't get to hear him for longer. It was truly magical.

Matt and Karese have been so helpful through the planning process. From the moment we booked even until after our wedding they made sure we had a great experience. I can go on and on about why you should book them but one thing that stands out more than the rest to me is on the day of our wedding, Matt noticed our crowd liked to be outside rather than inside where he originally had setup. Recognizing that, he asked us if we would be ok (after the formalities finished) if he moved his set outside to better serve our guests. Of course we said yes and it took him 5 minutes to switch locations mid wedding and nobody even noticed because he had music playing on a speaker inside the whole time he moved his stuff. Bow Tied Weddings definitely goes above and beyond for their couples! I recommend booking them for any event!
