Justin did such an INCREDIBLE job at the wedding! A DJ can truly make or break an event, and he absolutely nailed it! He perfected everything we asked for, and he managed to keep everyone on the floor ALL NIGHT LONG! Everyone been raving about how amazing he was, and I can’t express how much we appreciated having him! We were kinda on the last minute side of contracting with him due to our prior DJ’s medical situation, but it truthfully was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding to have him there as our DJ. He couldn’t of been any better! The photo booth was a hit, he were a hit, the wedding was perfect! Definitely recommend for any DJ services, we’ll certainly be using him again in the future!

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 Straw performed for the ceremony and cocktail hour at our outdoor wedding in 2019 and was absolutely magical. She has an incredibly beautiful voice and set the perfect mood for our wedding. So many of our guests came up to us during our reception and after the wedding to comment on how wonderful Lindsay was and we couldn't agree more! We still receive comments on her performance almost 5 years later! Lindsay was also incredibly professional and so easy to work with. We went to see her perform at the Arlington Farmer's Market and met with her after to discuss booking her. She was so helpful and her music was so lovely at the farmer's market that we knew we had to book her. We are so happy that we did! She made the whole process seamless and it was fabulous not to have to worry about the music at all. Our wedding was also outside on the hottest day of the year and Lindsay didn't bat an eye! We can't recommend her highly enough and would strongly encourage anyone to book her for their event.

From start to finish, John was an awesome DJ. He was patient and considerate, answering all of my questions as an over-planner. He even helped produce a multi-song mash-up for our father-daughter dance! He was quick to respond and met with us several times (virtually) over the course of our 9-month-long wedding planning. At the wedding, he read the room and kept the dance floor packed all night! We highly recommend John!

Jay and Martha were AWESOME! Highly recommend them for DJing. They were so sweet and gifted guests a surprise towards the end of the night which was a special touch. I still get compliments for how good my wedding DJ was. I host events and parties often, I already know who to have on speed dial. They know how to set the mood and direct it throughout an event. I asked some vague requests, like "no typical white people wedding music" (e.g., Don't Stop Believin', etc.) and had drastically different genres for dinner and party portions. THEY UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT and beyond. There were actually several songs I wish I knew because I loved them so much but never heard them before, yet they were really catchy and quite the vibe.

Joseph & Erika

5.0

Groton, MA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,850

We’re here to make things simple: We play live music. We DJ. And we help create unforgettable moments that are uniquely you. If you’re ready for a soundtrack for your wedding day that perfectly complements your vibe, delivered to you in a totally unique, no-compromise entertainment package, we’ve got you covered.

The best decision we made for our wedding! We got married on Nantucket and we’re struggling with DJ selections so our Wedding Planner recommended Joseph & Erika. We are SO happy that we selected these two as they were incredibly professional, had wonderful recommendations for our big day, and did an amazing job meeting our requests and keeping everyone on the dancefloor! Joseph & Erika were the best of both worlds for our big day, playing both live music and also switching to DJing during the reception. We opted to have them join us for our Cocktail Hour for live music and our guests could not stop talking about how lovely of an addition they were. During our reception, they did a perfect job MC’ing and keeping the evening moving along with great live-background music, and after keeping up a fun dancefloor, they played a private last dance for us and it was magical! We couldn’t have been happier with the music and service they provided - 11/10 recommend!

Vibeology IA

5.0

Belmont, MA
  • DJ

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

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Cambridge, MA

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
I hired Shane to entertain at my May wedding and he was so great to work with! He played exactly what we asked for and all my guests told me it was the best wedding they’ve been to in years! It was refreshing to know I didn’t have to worry when it came to the entertainment and timelines staying on track. He really knows his stuff! If you’re looking for someone to give their full attention to every detail and get everyone out of their chairs to party, Shane Mercier is your guy!!
