Dj Touché truly made planning my wedding a lot easier! I was a very chill bride which to some was great but to others it made things more difficult. Dj Touché has this awesome app that he sends you to choose music and I was overwhelmed with the choices! Dj touché was so patient with me and helped me pick great songs for my wedding! He even freestyled a little and he 100% nailed the vibe! The Photo Booth was truly a hit at my wedding and I had no idea I’d get to see all the pictures people were taking during the wedding! He had the pictures scrolling across the dj booth! He also had pictures of my husband and I displayed during the wedding and I had no idea he was going to do that! 10 out of 10 highly recommend!

The music and the dancing were easily the HIGHLIGHT of my wedding day. Planning a wedding during a pandemic can be quite disconcerting. I wasn’t sure if guests would feel comfortable dancing or if there would be looming fears amongst the crowd. Thankfully, the opposite was the case. My guests were thrilled to dance and DJ Kash had the dance floor jumping! Music has this incredible ability to bring people together and connect on the dance floor with passion, positivity, & good vibes. I’m so grateful to Kashif for being so dependable and easy to work with. He was great with communication and kept the party energy high from start to finish.

She effortlessly brings ambiance of every event she attends, creating a magical atmosphere with her music. Whether your dream wedding is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Sarah will help bring your vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am writing this review about Sarah. First of all, she was so great at being responsive which right off the bat was a big deal for me. Planning a wedding is stressful but during our first initial meet through Zoom I was immediately put at ease. Second, booking her was extremely easy and fairly priced. Thirdly, she was on time and I balled my eyes out walking down the aisle to beauty and the beast. I've never heard the harp in person and it was an experience I will never forget. She made my event elegant and elevated in all the right ways. If I ever have an excuse to bring Sarah back to another event, I WILL and will recommend her to anyone looking for calm, beautiful music for any event. Thank you thank you thank you Sarah!

Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths provided top-notch services to perfection for our wedding day. Extremely trustworthy, punctual, great at their job, and just great people overall on a personality level. We got married in Charlotte NC but Victor and his team are willing to travel to be part of your special day. It was a super hot summer day and we had him move to 4 locations for ceremony, cocktail hour, second ceremony, and reception (only indoor spot), and there was no lapse in music playing or delays. He conquered a tough challenge with that! Victor is extremely flexible to where the guest can create the entire playlist to their desire, or have no part in it and just relax and coast and let Victor do the work! The Photobooth addition is an absolute must-add, and really added another dimension for wedding guests, at an affordable price! We are so grateful that Elegant Soiree Wedding DJs & Photobooths were part of our special day.

We had the BEST experience with AAM Entertainment! They created a wedding playlist that catered to all of the guests that came to our wedding. Even after the wedding, our guests continue to tell us how great the DJ's were! They were super organized with all of the speeches we wanted to give, special dedications, etc. They were also extremely flexible and interactive throughout the night. When my husband hopped behind the bar to make his famous whiskey sours, they announced it and played a special song (this was all unplanned). It ended up being a really cool moment for not only our guests, but also my husband! AAM Entertainment made our wedding the best night and we can not recommend them enough!

This requires a professional DJ who can read the room, control the energy, and mix genres flawlessly – not just push buttons.

Jermaine "Dj Spontaneous" was the Dj for our wedding. His tagline of no boring weddings fits exactly what you get from him. From his preparation prior to the wedding getting a sense of the attendee demographics to the day of execution Jermaine was phenomenal. EVERY one of my guest raved about how great the dj was and, how much fun they had dancing all night. He did what was almost impossible because of our faith and personal beliefs we had certain parameters for the music but not every attendee has those same views he pleased our younger guests, our older guest and everyone inbetween. I'm very thankful to have had him Dj our special day.

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.

Diana and Robby, Owners of A Bride’s DJ, feel especially qualified because they both like to celebrate more than the average human. Robby is willing to wear a costume for any reason. Having a themed event? He has dressed up & made announcements like a pirate. Arrr! We have a small team of DJs who have each performed at 100 to 1500 weddings. Our DJs extensive experience & training ensures a smooth planning experience for clients, excelling in communication, are ego-free (so you get what YOU want), detail-oriented, and most importantly…they actually mix the music.

DJ Tony and A Bride’s DJ was beyond what we could ever ask for our wedding day. From the very beginning, both Diana and DJ Tony were attentive, understanding, and incredibly responsive to our music preferences and vision for the reception. (Btw, they are so kind and thoughtful which really made a difference throughout our whole wedding planning and wedding day.) We cared a lot about music and we had particular preferences even though we didn’t have any specific songs in mind. We told DJ Tony what music style we generally liked and the age range of our guests. His mixing skills and how he transitions between songs is just incredible. From day 1, we trusted his skills and was comfortable telling him about our vision. We can tell DJ Tony loves music. If we told him we wanted a LOTR themed wedding I know he’d pull off the best party. His curated playlist, talented mixing skills and DJing created an unforgettable party atmosphere that our guests raved about - they said it was even more fun than any club or party they'd been to! The energy and music were truly top-tier, making our wedding the best celebration beyond what we’d imagine. We are so grateful to DJ Tony, Diana, and A Bride's DJ for helping make our whole wedding experience truly incredible.

Our guests even commented how good the guitarist was during cocktail hour! They played a wide variety of music including Spanish music, classics, country, alternative, pop etc., and nailed every song! They also did the Hora for us as well. The singers (male singer-Philip is the band manager) and the female singer sounded amazing live! The band and the DJ during the band breaks kept the energy alive all night. Philip was super responsive, even up until the day before the wedding when we made a few minor changes to song choices. We are so grateful we could have them for our wedding.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion. We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs. They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen. On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for. Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious.
