Jim has been so friendly and professional throughout this entire process — he’s made this a really seamless and exciting experience! Our DJ Rick was great at reading the room and adjusting the music from our curated track list to fit the vibe we were going for (we really wanted people to work the dance floor!).

We couldn't be happier with our choice of DJ for our wedding! DJ Strassburg and the team at Music, Music, & More Music absolutely nailed the vibe we were going for. From the first song to the last, they kept the energy up and the dance floor packed all night long. The lighting setup was stunning and really helped set the mood throughout the evening. The digital photo booth was a huge hit with our guests, providing lots of fun and hilarious memories to look back on. One of the best features was the online account they provided us with. It made the whole planning process very easy. We were able to select our must-have songs, categorize our music preferences, and communicate everything clearly with the DJ.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.

DJ Squirrel (aka David Floyd) was phenomenal to work with from day one. We booked with him as our wedding DJ a year before the wedding. He was extremely helpful and easy to work with right off the bat. He would check in with us throughout the year leading up to the wedding to make sure we were doing okay with the planning and to see if we needed anything or had questions about anything along the way. We had a wonderful experience working with him and would 100% book with him again for another event. We raved about him and working with him to everyone throughout the year and he did not disappoint on the day of the wedding. Everyone at the wedding, young and old said how great he was.

If I could give Prime Time Event Group 6 stars, I would (and it still wouldn't be enough). Frank and his team kept our wedding reception on the dance floor all night, through not only a playlist of bangers but also an acute sense of what song to shift into if the previous one seemed a little lackluster with the crowd (which only happened once anyway). Working with him was so easy and he's so personable; he truly made us feel more excited about the wedding every time we talked. We will be recommending him to everybody we know getting married in the area! They're amazing!

I can't praise Marylands DJ enough! The team that worked with me, Taylor, DJ Steve, and DJ Scott were wonderful. Steve even condensed a song that I loved but felt was too long for a first dance down into a shorter version and now that's the only version I listen to. I told the team I wanted the vibe to feel like my favorite college bar and Scott, who dj'd our wedding in November 2023, was awesome! He kept the dance floor full until the very last minute!

Kevin and his team were great to work with. Strong communication leading up to our wedding and a good help when planning our day. The band learned our first dance, and mother/father dance songs which made those moments extra special. They had the enthusiasm we were looking for to keep the party going! We highly recommend working with them!

Ricky and his team came in and gave us an absolutely memorable night! From the lighting, music, and his ability to connect and read the crowd is next level. I understand the slogan says making a dream worthy event, but man, it really is truth in advertising! There is no other company like has and I highly suggest that every couple talks to him before making any decision
