Matt Baer Media

5.0

Festus, MO
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids!​ At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, I got back behind the mic and launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

Awarded Best of Zola
When my mom and I met Matt and his wife at a wedding show, we instantly connected. Matt was very laid back, and not a pushy salesperson. As soon as we had our venue and date booked and finalized, Matt was the first person we reached out to check availability. We were able to book Matt Baer Media as our DJ and it was such a great choice. Matt was very responsive, professional, friendly, and reset my portal password for me more times than I care to admit since I kept forgetting the password. I had an initial call right after booking with Matt to go over contract details, various text/email communication, and my now husband and I had a meeting about one or two weeks prior to our event to finalize everything. Every time Matt was so polite and genuine. I knew he wanted to help make our day special. The day of was wonderful. Matt did an AMAZING job with our ever changing timeline. He was willing to be flexible and share the game plan with our other vendors when needed. Matt had people out on the dance floor and the music choices were great. Many of our wedding party complemented Matt on his job well done, too. We were very happy with our choice to book Matt and highly recommend him. He helped to make our day perfect!

We customize a plan for your wedding, party, or event that incorporates both dance floor-filling DJ sets and live performances. Join together with your friends and family, get down to great music, and make magical memories.

Awarded Best of Zola
When my husband and I were picking our priorities for our wedding day, we wanted 1) our people, 2) a great party, and 3) and great food/drinks. We brought the people, but without a doubt, Ultimate Beats brought the party! I had multiple people come up to me after our wedding or text me days later letting us know that’s the most they’ve danced at a wedding…ever. And I left feeling like our wedding was the best wedding and party I’ve ever been to. Martin helped us create the day we wanted and was calm, fun, and easy to work with on and before our wedding day. He has an easy to use planning portal, promptly responds to requests, and takes the time to get to know you. Martin felt natural as our reception MC and flexed the schedule enough to fit our day, but not enough to get off track. On top of all that, we also used the Ultimate Beats photobooth and it was so well executed with the pictures turning out great. I can’t exaggerate or say this enough — you need to pick Ultimate Beats for your wedding or party!!

She was great at communicating, was always on time, handled any unforseen changes with ease, and made sure that the dance floor was always loaded.

We don’t view other companies as competition, but rather collaborators to grow with. Every client deserves the right fit for their DJ.

If you are looking for a DJ that is easy to work with, super friendly, and listens to exactly what you want then you need to use Brad! We gave him a list of songs we 100% wanted played (they were all over the place in genre, beat and tempo) and he made them all fit in perfectly! We also gave him songs that we did not want played which were not! Almost everyone at my wedding was on the dance floor because of the fun exciting atmosphere he made! He has multiple different packages you can choose from and you can also add things to your package if you don’t see it on the one you like! The lighting he also has to offer was amazing and made for some cool pictures as well. You can get ahold of him easy whenever you have questions or concerns as well.

- [ ] I couldn’t recommend Carter Events enough! I stumbled upon Carter Events in my search for a DJ. What I found was much more than that. I could not believe how many services were available from the same company. How neat is that?! Since we did already hire an officiant we did not need that service but would otherwise have taken full advantage. We did, however, utilize the day of coordinator along with the DJ and Photo Booth. I loved utilizing all three services with one main person to coordinate with; it made it easier and much less emails to write. Not only does Carter Events offer many services but they are top notch too! The communication was prompt and clear, and any questions I had in this unfamiliar territory were answered with an eagerness to help. Carter Events sincerely cares about your big day and will help ease the process in any way. My sister also utilized Carter Events for her wedding and I’d recommend to anyone planning their big day. We loved working with Steven and his crew. Some members I did not meet until the day of but I wasn’t worried because I knew, from all the communication and sincere care for our wedding, that anyone from Carter Events would be just as great at Steven himself. Thank you so much for making our day special!

DJ Chriss was so great to work with for my husband and I's wedding day. We really took our time to create a more modern wedding playlist from ceremony, to cocktail hour, and into reception as we wanted a more upbeat and lively atmosphere that is in sync with who we are as a couple rather than your standard classic wedding playlist we've heard over and over that we can't really dance to the way we would like. He listened to us and appreciated the list we sent over while understanding our taste and adding some songs to it throughout the wedding day that made for an amazing time that our guests can't stop talking about! -Kristin and Ryan Roberts 6.25.22

After 25 years of music city experience, performing and working together with some of the biggest names* in Country & Rock, this duo decided to take on a new and exciting journey of establishing a Nashville-based wedding band. With access to some of the best touring musicians and singers in the nation, they were able to compile a band unlike any other to take the wedding experience to the next level.

They are full of energy, talent, and fun. Derek was very organized and Adam was easy to talk to. They made our wedding day better than we ever expected. We would highly recommend them!

Cuarteto Guataca

5.0

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Alton, IL for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

I have used Cuarteto Guataca both personally (birthdays, family events) and professionally as a wedding/ event florist and event planner for YEARS. Every time they manage to get everyone on their feet. They are super professional always and extremely easy to work with. Hands down, Josh and his band will always be my first choice for latin entertainment (any entertainment for that matter)!!
