His wide range of experience has led him to create entertainment for corporate events, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and quinceañeras.

Retep Events far exceeded our expectations! From the initial consultation to the last dance, DJ Retep was friendly and very professional, and so fast to respond to any question. He anticipated every detail, and accommodated every unique request, venue restriction, and song we asked for. We were worried about not having a lively dance floor with a mostly-family wedding, but Peter brought the party to life. He’s a great MC, and his music selection was on point at every phase of the evening, catering to a diverse audience with great energy. Thanks to him, we have great memories dancing with our friends all night, and even both of our parents finished out the last dance! Amazingly, he was also the best value. Our package included awesome music-synced uplighting, ceremony sound & wireless mic, and the best customizable Photobooth and backdrop I’ve ever used!

DJ Phil Does It

Austin, TX
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200

I'm an event DJ serving Central Texas with more than 18 years of experience rocking parties. I love taking requests and work long hours to custom tailor music selections to the mood of my clients' events. I bring all of my own gear so, if you give me a power outlet, I can start a dance party. I also MC receptions and can run sound and microphones for ceremonies and presentations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Phil is amazing. We chose Phil to DJ our wedding (October 2022). We were drawn to his skill as a vinyl DJ, and how receptive he was to our wishes (no typical wedding songs). We provided him with a playlist to build from for the party, and he absolutely crushed it. Everyone had a great time and had nothing but rave reviews of our reception and the playlist. 10/10 would recommend Phil for your next wedding, party, or any other excuse for an incredible DJ.

Exodus Sound Company

5.0

Austin, TX
  • DJ

We decided to name our business Exodus Sound Company because it is always our goal to walk our own path as entertainers. We’re going exciting places that are uncharted in the wedding entertainment business. The journey of the last few years has led us to a new kind of business. One that combines live music with DJ for the seamless event filled with variety and exploding with unique wonder at every turn.

We were beyond impressed with Mark! Not only is he a fantastic DJ, but he's a skilled pianist, singer, emcee, and overall entertainer. Our guests loved him and kept bringing up how amazing he was even months after our wedding . He was recommended by a friend who'd attended a wedding where he played and we similarly have shouted his praises! We hired Mark for our wedding reception. We had a fantastic interview with him where he got a feel for what we liked, our story, and our vibe as a couple. We had a long "do not play" list which might have limited a basic wedding DJ, but not Mark. He went off of our favorite songs, artists, and genres and kept our guests on the dance floor. My only "complaint" is that the songs were so good that I kept delaying the cake cutting (not a big deal at all) because I didn't want to leave the dance floor! He is incredibly engaging and professional. His emceeing was spot-on: his timing was perfect, he kept things organized, and he took care to get all the names and pronunciations correct (which seems like a little thing, but I've seen it go wrong so many times and you don't want that!). He brought all his equipment, so we didn't have to worry about anything. The mics and sound were the perfect volume for speeches etc. and there were zero technical issues. Absolutely seamless. Our budget for a DJ was a few hundred less than what we paid for Mark, but the difference in cost was worth it many times over for having a DJ of his caliber plus the added treat of live music. Honestly, what we paid was a bargain and I'm beyond glad and relieved we went with Mark rather than hunting for a cheap DJ/experience (especially after attending so many weddings lately and seeing the wide range in what you can get). Mark sang and played piano during dinner, which was really nice. While people could talk and enjoy their food, some of the singing was so good I had to stop and listen at times! He has runs for days (some swooning during 'Tennessee Whiskey') and Grandma loved that he did some Sinatra. Overall, not only was he a reliable, timely, communicative vendor, but he helped make our wedding the best night of our lives with his musicianship. Things couldn't have gone more smoothly. Not only would I hire him again in a heartbeat, I tried to get him for our company holiday party but he was already booked (not surprising given how great he is!). Highly recommend!!! Thanks, Mark!

Austin, TX
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,399

I absolutely love gathering with friends and family to celebrate really anything. But to gather for a love that lasts forever? Even better! Music is where my heart is and loving and laughing pairs with it extremely well. So, when I’m asked to DJ a wedding, my heart is full. I focus on my couples and have for the last 5 years of being in business. The fact that I get paid to do this is often times unreal. Meeting new people and making people feel young again, is absolutely priceless. I hope to serve you as well!

I've had the privilege of collaborating with Issac, and from a vendor's perspective, he is exceptional. From his communication skills to his efficient handling of timeline events, I wholeheartedly recommend his services.

Doug Anthony - Solo Guitar Austin

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Solo performer

I have been playing guitar in Austin, Texas... ...since 1989. I am a full time musician and I perform regularly for corporate events and weddings. Even though I have been playing the guitar for so long there is still so much to learn. I enjoy the process of learning new things and improving on what I already know. There are endless ways you can play a song and there are so many good songs to play. I was born in 1966 so I am heavily influenced by the music around that era which explains The Beatles, Stevie Wonder and The Great American Songbook.

As a wedding officiant since 2006, I have worked with Doug countless times. Whenever I show up at a ceremony and see him there I get really excited for multiple reasons. First and foremost, he is a wildly brilliant guitarist. Second--he is so calm and pleasant and professional. I know the ceremony is going to be fantastic in large part because of his presence.

  • Solo performer

Music is my passion and I truly love providing the soundtrack for life's most special moments. I moved to Austin six years ago to be a part of the incredible live music scene. I'm obsessed with everything about Austin (I mean, who can live without breakfast tacos?), and I absolutely LOVE what I do. I've been a full-time musician for nearly 10 years and have performed at 200+ weddings and countless events. My two most requested packages are solo (piano + vocals), or duo (piano + vocals + guitar). I’ve seen it all and I promise you can trust me to make your wedding music memorable, beautiful, and fun! --- Learn more at: www.mikaelakahn.com
