  • DJ
  • Starts at $990

We understand you want your event to be fun, yet elegant and classy – but most of all stress-free. We’re dedicated to putting on a fun, yet elegant show for you and your guests. We don’t make unbecoming jokes, perform cheesy acts or display tasteless advertisements.

We got married at a venue that had pretty strict direction when it came to music. We had sound ordinances, couldn’t play curse words, etc. so we wanted a DJ that was familiar with our venue so there would be no hiccups. Which is how we found By Request! I communicated with Ryan through the process. He was easy to communicate with and clear about everything. The week before the wedding we had a group call with Chris - who was the actual DJ on our wedding day and the call made me feel so at ease. They were extremely flexible and did our music for ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. All of it was perfect and we danced all night long!

The Bluewater Kings Band provided what truly felt like white glove service to make our wedding dance floor exactly what we wanted. Ryan was extremely responsive over email and our phone call before the wedding allowed us to lay out what we wanted the experience to be. In addition to how easy it was to work with them, their performance was spectacular. They were professional, polished and musically phenomenal. Their set list truly sounded like we had hand-picked every song (we only gave them a list of our favorite types of music and they knocked it out of the park). We leveraged the piano player for our ceremony music and it was beautiful and a nice touch at a reasonable price point as an add-on.

Matt was flexible and friendly throughout the entire planning process, taking time to understand exactly what we wanted to hear on our big day. His talent really shone through during the cocktail hour and he brought this fun energy that had everyone singing along. One of the highlights was when he invited one of our guests to sing along during cocktail hour—it was such a special moment that our guests are still talking about.

We LOVED the music Matt played at our wedding party. He was seamless is transitioning genres from when the party first started to end of the night. I had SO many friends at the party come up and say they were loving the music. Best part was he didn't play a single one of those classic wedding anthem songs that everyone has heard a million times (which was our worry). He nailed it, couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special night.
