Great service, exquisite music taste. I loved not having to worry about flow, introductions, or having fun on the dance floor. Drew was so communicative and sent lists and lists of song recommendations for every part of the wedding in order to alleviate some of the wedding planning stress. He was really able to read the dance floor and made dancing such a fun experience for all involved! Not to mention, his flexibility and willingness to incorporate my latin culture into the playlist. I would definitely work with them again for future parties.

If I could give them 10 million stars I would. Justin was so incredibly easy to work with, beyond personable, knowledgeable and organized. Even our venue was impressed with his scheduling and timelines! I was a last-minute bride, felt so discouraged with finding the *right* DJ and Justin swooped in and made it happen. (I may or may not have had about a month until my wedding date...yikes to me) Justin slayed our ceremony sound. He had my guests dancing all night with a stellar mix of music and stayed an extra hour to keep the party going. Music is such a huge part of our lives, and our story, and Justin understood the assignment! Thank you for making my wedding that much more amazing, Justin!! (Seriously, book them!)

Lindsay Straw: Singer & Acoustic Guitarist

Somerville, MA
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $375
  • Serves Portsmouth, NH

Mixing evocative Celtic songs with upbeat Americana folk and acoustic covers, Lindsay Straw delivers a soundtrack in a warm alto voice with intricate guitar and Irish bouzouki accompaniment. With over 250 weddings under her belt, she loves working with couples to provide the perfect folky playlist tailored to their tastes and needs. She provides her own sound gear and can accommodate new song requests. She's open to weddings all over New England.

Lindsay was beyond amazing, I can't say enough nice things about her and the special touch she brought to our wedding. Lindsay played during our ceremony and cocktail hour. First and foremost, she has the most beautiful and enchanting voice (we heard a sample and were hooked immediately). She was very easy to work with and so helpful throughout the entire process. Lindsay worked with us early on to get an idea of how she would best fit in and what we were looking for in terms of music choices. She provided guidance for the different songs that play during the ceremony and then what type of music she would play at the cocktail hour. We had so many guests come up to us asking about Lindsay and saying how wonderful she was and that she really made the ceremony special. I would recommend her over and over again and we look forward to seeing her at some of the other shows she plays around us! Thank you Lindsay!

Jordan Tirrell-Wysocki Trio

Canterbury, NH
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Portsmouth, NH

Want to set a mellow, thoughtful mood for your ceremony? Or to entertain your guests with lively fiddle music during your cocktail hour? Perhaps you're looking for an alternative to the traditional wedding band, and you'd like to dance the night away to Celtic folk songs and foot-stompin' fiddle tunes? Or all of the above? Jordan has been performing at weddings for over a decade, solo and with bands of varying size to fit your budget.

Awarded Best of Zola
These guys are spectacular! From the time I first spoke with Jordan I knew I had stumbled upon something amazing. He was so easy to arrange everything with and he handled our special requests without issue. They sounded fantastic and went with the flow of the evening - keeping things low key when that was the mood of the room or bringing out more upbeat tunes when people were up and dancing. These guys are so professional, so wonderful to work with, and super super talented. I'm still hearing from guests of the wedding saying how much they loved the music (the wedding was months ago!) and everybody said this group was the classiest wedding ensemble they had ever seen/heard. Do yourself a favor and hire them!

DeeJay Tom

5.0

Billerica, MA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Portsmouth, NH

Customer service to my clients is #1 to me – the wedding is not about me, it’s about you, your friends and your family. Once I understand what you envision at your wedding, I’ll use my 20+ years of experience to make sure everyone has a great and unforgettable time. I become very much involved in the timing and management of the evening from the moment you book me.

We decided on a DJ instead of a band for a few practical reasons. It's cheaper, there's more variety in what he/she can play and therefore can appeal to a broader audience, and most importantly for us, a DJ takes up less space than a band. We thought about foregoing a professional altogether and just doing the iPod thing, but I was afraid that it would stress me out. For anyone else who has done the DJ search, there is LOT of cheese out there! I received a packet from this one guy with all kinds of crazy rainbow colors and smiley faces and frankly, his voice on the phone scared me. We wanted a low-key DJ, not a show-boat. Tom was perfect. He totally delivered! He wore a tux and looked great. Call me shallow but that's important - the DJ is in the background of quite a few of the photos. He was professional and knew what to play to make everyone happy. He also played all of the songs we asked him to, which is not always a given. The reception was non-stop dancing all night. We had a blast!

Husband and wife duo, The Poor Cousins, combine intimate, nourishing songs and gutsy tunes in an easy-going style.

The duo performs various styles including classical, popular tunes, and American, Irish and all Celtic fiddle music. In addition to playing at many weddings and events in the New York City / New England area the duo have performed in many countries around the world, both together and separately.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had Emmet and Naomi for our indoor December wedding, the venue was a log cabin style lodge. They were a perfect match and we were so glad we chose them. They learned one of our favorite songs for the opening to our ceremony, playing a beautiful instrumental version of it. Our guests loved the music, that it was accessible for everyone, young and old alike. We had toddlers dancing in front of the band, but the guests seated closest to the band during dinner could still carry on a conversation easily. A lot of people really appreciated this, that they could add ambiance and energy without overpowering you. We especially want to thank them for traveling through the blizzard conditions to be there that weekend. We were hoping for a snowy winter wedding, and we got all the snow we could handle that weekend! The Poor Cousins really helped everything come together for us, and we would absolutely recommend them to anybody!

When you plan a wedding, you hope for a day that's filled with love, joy, and beautiful memories. However, sometimes, life throws unexpected challenges your way. On our special day, "The Hook Club" not only delivered an exceptional performance but also showcased a level of dedication and professionalism that we will never forget. A sudden storm threatened to dampen our wedding day, and we feared our outdoor celebration at the North Fork Table & Inn would be ruined. That's when "The Hook Club" displayed their unwavering commitment by trekking through the storm to make sure they arrived, even when we least expected it. Their determination to be there for us touched our hearts. Once they arrived, it was clear that we were in for a musical treat. Their performance was nothing short of magical. "The Hook Club" created an atmosphere of intimate love and warmth that perfectly suited the occasion. The choice of songs and the way they played them resonated deeply with us and our guests. It felt as if they knew exactly what our hearts desired. Our wedding guests were not only impressed but also raved about "The Hook Club's" performance. Many of our friends and family commented on how well-suited the music was for the venue and the overall atmosphere. The band's ability to connect with the audience was remarkable, and they played a crucial role in making our day truly special. We cannot thank "The Hook Club" enough for their incredible talent, dedication, and their willingness to go the extra mile, even in the face of adversity. Their performance added an extra layer of magic to our wedding, and we will forever cherish the memories they helped create. If you're looking for a music vendor that not only delivers outstanding performances but also has a heartwarming commitment to their clients, "The Hook Club" should be your top choice.

There's nothing I love more than a great song, a dance floor, and a reason to celebrate.

I work personally with each of my couples to make their weddings amazing, and I'm fortunate that I get to do this each and every weekend.

Brendan knows how to keep the party going but is also one of the most professional folks I know. If you didn't know- Brendan also plays the piano AND can play any song after hearing it. So you not only get a DJ you get a keyboard player too. One of Brendan's best traits is that he keeps your timing on point, so he's not just keeping people on the dance floor, he's also making announcements at the right time. This is so important and often overlooked: I've worked with B-Sharp for over 13 years and every time I see him set up at a wedding I know that my couple is going to have an awesome night.

With so many having ceremonies in one location and a reception in an other, I am capable of providing music for both locations. My clients wishes come first, from special moments to a dvd choreographed to your special music projected while you take the dance floor for that special First Dance. These are just some of the service provided.

Gerry recently was the DJ for our wedding. We planned out everything in 2 months and I wasn't sure that when we started, if this event I was planning was even going to resemble a wedding. I had an extremely tight budget and was planning a September wedding in Vermont...my hopes and expectations were not high. Luckily early on in the process I stumbled onto Gerry on Zola and reached out thinking it was too good to be true. He was quick to respond to the initial inquiry and we set up a time to chat on the phone about possibilities. We ended up spending over an hour on the phone that night just talking about how it didn't matter that I was having such a small event-the sky was the limit. Go ahead and have a single conversation with him and his passion will sell itself. He makes it all look almost too easy. Not only was he extremely flexible-he traveled well out of his way to make this happen for us because without him, we would not have had a DJ for our wedding. The day of the wedding, he kept everything running like a well oiled machine. He kept our guests involved, handled our rowdier guests with grace and even let one of my 4 year olds sing everyone a song during dinner which made him feel so special. Everyone loved Gerry and I promise you will too. Do yourself a favor and book Your Way DJ for your next special event-you wont get a chance to regret it.

"I am an eclectic wedding violinist based in the Worcester-Boston area of Massachusetts. I perform for wedding ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinner receptions, first dances, and dance receptions. I enjoy learning my clients' favorite songs so that their wedding day feels extra special. I am able to play a variety of different music genres (top 100 hits, music from Bridgerton, hip hop, R&B, EDM, rock, big band, & classical) and can perform on my electric violin with your DJ for your reception. I am able to provide my own Bose sound system which can be battery-operated for outdoor areas."

Kathryn is my GO TO live musician for all of my couples. She's a super talented violinist and an absolute dream to work with. So accomodating, professional, organized, and kind. It's so much fun to see the guests enjoy her music - especially when she plays more modern music that people aren't typically used to hearing on the violin. She's the perfect fit for a sweet and romantic ceremony followed by a lively and upbeat cocktail hour. She's even played full receptions at some of my events! I highly recommend working with Kathryn!

Vibeology IA

Belmont, MA
  • DJ
  • Serves Portsmouth, NH for additional fees

Music is a lifeblood of life's journey: a universal language that invokes emotion and creates memories; and when thoughtfully and passionately curated into a soundtrack, custom-tailored to specifications, preferences and tastes, the outcome is truly magical, noteworthy, and filled with joy, sentiment, and connection. For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

We met Denise when she DJ'd a friend's wedding and it was the most fun reception I'd ever attended. I knew she HAD to be my DJ if ever I got married! From day 1 of meeting with her for our wedding, it was clear that her goal was to give us the best party of our lives, whatever that looked like to us. She had great advice throughout the entire process and took time to get to know us and what style/vibe we wanted for our reception. Communication is key, and she had the logistics of the reception planned down to the minute. The music portal is very user friendly and it was really fun to think through our music. If you need song advice, she's your gal. She will strictly adhere to your do NOT play list. She gets the guests engaged and is truly a party starter (if that's what you want). Our guests told us they were sore the next morning because they literally never left the dance floor. Many have asked us to do an annual anniversary party and have Denise DJ it. She will become your family DJ for life and we know of at least 2 guests who plan to have her DJ their wedding. She is a lovely human and a STELLAR DJ. You will not regret asking her to DJ your special day! <3

There is an art to entertaining. To create a memorable wedding celebration, you need quality entertainment. Most events I do start with some common elements: guests, music and the client’s desire for the event to be successful. It’s the inspiration in the execution and preparation before the event that distinguishes me from the ordinary. While others may do events by number, I make each event an original, a unique reflection of my client…you! I take inspiration from your dreams and desires. I do not ask you to follow someone else’s format because I will thrive in yours.

Butch was simply phenomenal! He was able to keep our small wedding so high energy it felt like we had a room full of a hundred people! He was so flexible with us as we had so many changes throughout the planning process. He was willing to work with us regardless of what our contract stated, he just wanted us to have the best wedding we could. He was so helpful in planning meetings and his tool was easy and fun for us to use! We asked him last minute to do all the ceremony music and he was even willing to jump in the day of to marry us when we thought we were without an officiant. All of our guests raved about him! We can't say enough about Butch except to HIRE HIM! :)

Zeke and Sheila have worked extremely hard to maintain their high quality and attention to customer service. In order to maintain their excellent rapport with customers, the Aleman family has hand picked the best talent in each region to work for their exclusive boutique company. Keeping a small staff who can identify with their clients and provide the next level in concierge style service, has been met with a great response from both clients and the event industry and has garnished them many industry and client awards!

The best ever! DJ Zeke was just fabulous at our wedding!! From start-to-finish, they were one of the easiest vendors to book. As we approached the date, we shared a playlist and met with DJ Zeke, fun conversation about music and how we planned our event. He truly brought it to life! So happy he could accommodate an option where my niece sang a song, dedicated to us. It was beautiful. He was so great in reading the audience, keeping everyone going on the dance floor. We're still receiving notes/texts from our guests raving about what a fun evening they had. We highly recommend All That Events - grateful for their effort.
