I am all about making sure you’re 100% satisfied. I bring the music and all the equipment necessary to have the best wedding or rehearsal dinner or bachelorette party or engagement party. I like to DJ the music that’ll bring a crowd together and get them dancing. I do accept song requests and I always have my notebook ready for the guest to write down what they want to hear. Some past clients have said it is the most fun they’ve ever had & best night of their life’s when I DJ their event.

Her energy was infectious, her song choices spot on, and her ability to read the room was unparalleled. Whitney didn't just bring the party; she *was* the party.

Powell Weddings & Events 

5.0

  • Band/dj
  • Starts at $1,850
  • Serves South Salt Lake, UT

Russ has always loved music. From standing in the living room, pretending to conduct the orchestra as a toddler, to playing in multiple bands growing up. He got his start as a DJ in 2003 DJ'ing for his friend's sister's wedding. While there he met another couple who were impressed with his charisma and unabashed ability to engage the crowd, and leading a line dance when necessary, they asked him to DJ their wedding as well. From there it snowballed as he honed his craft both on the microphone and behind the mixer to create the professional sound and music services that Powell Wedding & Events represents today.

I'm a professional wedding officiant of 18 years in Utah and beyond. I always tell my couples the most important thing besides me is their D.J. They can make or break your ceremony and reception. If I have a bad microphone for the ceremony, all anyone remembers is the cutting in and out. Good equipment is vital. Russ has some of the best. Second, your D.J. will either make or break your reception. A good DJ reads the guests and knows which direction to go in. Russ is an expert when it comes to this skill. Remember, your D.J. is guiding and directing the evening when it comes to toasting, first dance, cake cutting, and all the other things that take place during the reception. Your D.J is the Ringmaster that makes it all look easy and smooth. You want a professional D.J. with professional equipment. If you're lucky enough to get Russ, be assured, you've got both.

Fox Weddings and Events

  • DJ
  • Starts at $900
  • Serves South Salt Lake, UT

The Fox Theatre is currently offering DJ services. Glenn is a charismatic, and passionate DJ that will help bring all the elements of your big day together. Not sure what you want? His years of experience will help you weigh pros and cons and make informed decisions. We also have tables and chairs available for rent. Call today for a free consultation (435-233-6046). If you are looking for a venue, we have had some success connecting couples with beautiful vacation rental destinations that allow events. There are pros and cons to this option, so check with Glenn to see if this option is good for you.

I will start with Glenn is a great person and was very easy to communicate with leading up to the wedding and responded to messages quickly. There is a list that you are given by the DJ for all the important moments for songs to play, that was great and done correctly. The reason we gave lower stars were for the following reason; the playlists we sent were not used. We gave playlists for every duration of the wedding for music we wanted played during the pre ceremony music, dinner and reception/dancing. Out of the playlist songs only a handful were actually played for each section and for the pre ceremony not at all. Even after having been brought to their attention at the dinner during the reception, dancing went the same random unwanted music was being played. People were unable to dance to the music that was playing and it was frustrating when the DJ announced come request music and then the songs people were requesting (which were on the playlists) weren’t getting played anyways. We would hope that moving forward he plays the music people actually want to hear and dance to at their wedding because this is a memory the couple will always remember and it is something that we still hear about from guests even to this day about how the music was lacking.

Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with The Hook Club. Our amazing planner, Greenhouse Events, recommended THC, and we were sold immediately after meeting with Dan. He is super relaxed, nice, and so knowledgable. Dan and THC team made planning super easy for us. They took time to hear about our hopes and helped recommend different band sizes for us. We hadn’t heard of a DJ band before, but loved the idea of some live music with the versatility to play all sorts of music, but our venue wasn’t very big and we also didn’t want to break the bank and hire a huge band. We chose the 4 piece DJ band with singer, sax, drums, and DJ. We knew we LOVED the sax, so we also had the sax play for cocktail hour (shout out to Elijah, who was amazing), and it was one of the best parts of the night. For planning music, they sent out a very detailed and thorough spreadsheet with more songs than one could imagine, and we could rate ones we liked the most, choose ones we definitely wanted or didn't, and choose specific songs for important moments. We met a couple times to review music choices as well. One of our biggest fears with a DJ was that they'd talk too much and be a little annoying, but Dan did a great job as MC, and was very low-key like we asked but announced important moments clearly. Dan and all the musicians had such great energy and got everyone on the dance floor. Our vocalist, Christen, was also amazing — her voice was spectacular, and she was such an amazing performer and got everyone involved in the music and dancing. So many people told us how much they loved the music and the energy, and had never heard of a DJ band but thought it was an amazing concept and the addition of live music over tracks added extra excitement and fun. THC also helped out with lighting (uplights and dance lights), and worked with our fantastic planner and the venue to help us decide the best setup. Ultimately, we loved working with THC. Their DJ-band setup is unique and adds so much variety to your music while allowing for some of the energy that comes from live performers. We danced the night away and had an absolute blast. 100% would recommend THC to anyone!

Tyler was AMAZING to work with! From start to finish, he was super responsive, amicable and bought some really fun ideas to the table. He was open to our ideas too and provided 3 custom song edits for our wedding. His talent stretches far beyond just DJing -- he played piano for our ceremony and saxophone during cocktail hour and reception. Our guests were enamored with him and til this day are still talking about "the sax guy". No one left the dance floor all night, thanks to his energy and engagement. If you're still on the fence, the answer is yes... HIRE HIM!

Christina was one of the first vendors I booked through Zola and I am so lucky and happy to have found her! I wanted to have both live music and a DJ set at the reception, and many people told me I couldn’t for varrying reasons. But when I found L Rock Entertainment’s page, I knew it was the perfect fit for my dream wedding. Christina has amazing DJ skills and plays guitar and sings beautifully! We customized the package to have her duo Modern Highway play for cocktail hour then the DJ set. She was very communicative throughout the whole process, helping me with my timeline as I planned my own wedding. The day of, the band played beautiful guitar live during our first look, something we didn’t plan but Christina went with the flow like a true professional. The live music was perfect for cocktail hour and then DJ set was BANGING! Everyone on the dance floor came up to me at some point complimenting her perfect beat matching and transitions. She not only played our must-have songs, but also incorporated requests seamlessly. Even the neighbors complimented the tunes and don’t complain about the noise! Christina is kind, patient, professional, warm, talented, caring, and creative - everything you could possibly want from your music team. If we ever need a DJ for a future event, she’s at the top of our list. Book her now!

Eric was an absolute hit at our wedding. He absolutely crushed the whole night! From setting the perfect tone throughout our ceremony, to coordinating directions for our guests, and most importantly energizing the whole room all night during the reception. We received so many compliments about our D.J. and everyone asking where we found him. But his services went so far above and beyond the night of the wedding. Starting 9 months before the big night, he devoted precious time getting to know us as a couple and individuals. Over the course of many, many zoom meetings he manifested our perfect night by asking all the important questions, building us an even more detailed timeline than our coordinator had provided, and offering several super helpful suggestions and guidance that we never would have came up with ourselves. All culminating in the perfect night, that was executed so seamlessly and flawlessly, better than we could've ever imagined or hoped for. Don't take our word for it, give him a call, and you will know he is your guy!
