We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. 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!

We found Greg and BJ at a local bridal show. We talked with them and loved what they offered. We met with them a few weeks later, and felt very comfortable. We hired them for our ceremony and reception. At our meeting before the wedding, we filled out planners for everything I wanted to happen. The day of, the ceremony went great. They played music 30 minutes before for FREE! They put mics on the Pastor and my Groom Charles so we could be heard. The music was timed perfectly. In the reception they played easy jazz music during dinner. Our dances and cake cutting went without a hitch. They then started the dance music and we had a blast! The music sounded great, and was a wide range of music to include everybody of all ages. I would recommend them to everyone. They are very good at what they do.

DJ Demarkus and DeTayls Entertainment was a perfect DJ and emcee for our wedding. The communication was rapid and he had a great organizational app that kept us on track leading up to the big day. The Djing was better than I could've imagined - DJ Demarkus was extremely organized upfront, provided a fantastic emcee who hit all the important cues, and made amazing song choices that kept our dance floor alive all night long. He took our relatively small playlist and seamlessly transitioned between songs, making great in-the-moment choices that matched the energy of the crowd. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding celebration so fun!

DJ Triplicate

  • DJ
  • Starts at $550
  • Serves Tuscaloosa, AL for additional fees
  • Offer

Weddings are a big deal. It is a celebration of you making an eternal commitment to the person that you love more than anything. You would go to the ends of the earth for them, just to make them happy. So why would you risk the celebration of that love on a bargain bin DJ? I have read the horror stories. Seen the Reddit posts. It would have been such a beautiful wedding, and amazing memory… if the DJ didn’t ruin the entire thing. With DJ Triplicate, what you receive is consummate professionalism. Service that goes above and beyond. One on one attention with time, care, and empathy. “Don’t let a cheap wedding DJ happen to you”

We couldn’t have anticipated such a huge impact DJ Triplicate would have on our wedding! He was so impressive with his musical talents, playlist, professionalism, compassion for our requests as well as the treatment of our friends and family. He was responsive out the gate and each time we had questions or request, he took as much time as we needed. We could tell he wanted to make the playlist exactly what we wanted and he put a lot of time and effort in to preparing it for us. The energy was always where it needed to be and the dance floor was never empty! His lighting and fog made the mood perfect for our wedding and it’s apparent he truly loves what he does and had such a great attitude. We would recommend DJ Triplicate to anyone that has an event in the Atlanta metropolitan area!

Hello! I am a classically trained pianist who loves to play for weddings and events! I received my bachelors in piano and performance from Samford University. Let me help you set the perfect backdrop for your wedding ceremony!

Awarded Best of Zola
Olivia was so wonderful to work with! From finding her on wedding wire and sending my inquiry, she very quickly responded with availability and was so reliable! She responded to every email in less than a day from start to finish. This particularly stood out to me as many vendors I encountered were slow/non responsive. She arrived on time to the ceremony with her own supplies (small extra cost included in my total) and executed it all perfectly. She had to extend the processional song (I think??) due so slow grandparents walking but it was smooth and flawless. She played for a total of about 50 minutes. 30 minutes leading up to the ceremony, about 10 minutes of the ceremony, and 10 minutes afterwards. I would highly recommend Olivia for all of your event or wedding needs!
