Kyle and Dave were SO great to work with. Every conversation with them was fun and they were so organized in walking us through creating the perfect soundtrack to our favorite day. Kyle and I hit it off immediately sharing a love of Electronic, Pop Punk, and HipHop; and Dave (who DJ'd the day of) was so in tune with my husband's love of Jam Bands, Bluegrass, and Jamtronica! They respected our wishes to check in with us about outlier song requests lol and added the flare our dream playlist needed. The photobooth was loved by all of our guests. We cannot recommend them enough to anyone hosting an event or wedding!

My husband and I used Direct Entertainment for our DJ and videographer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased!! The team was professional, great at communication, very kind and professional, and they helped make our day absolutely perfect! Jeff, our DJ kept the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT!! When the music had to stop at the end of the night, the dance floor was still completely full and no one wanted it to end. He did a great job announcing the events of the night, made sure that our ceremony music was perfect, and he stuck to our wedding playlist with the exception for a couple guest requests (which we were happy to allow). We were so happy and thankful to have Jeff there! Sie, our videographer also did a wonderful job! We have not yet received our video as our wedding was less than 2 weeks ago, but I already know it is going to be amazing. He was so great with communication, was prompt with his timing, and he even set up a second camera for guests to break away and give us well wishes for our marriage, which I'm so excited to watch back. He was very professional and wonderful to work with. We decided to add videography at the last minute because we thought we might regret not having it, and I am SO happy we asked Jim at Direct Entertainment if they had someone available for our day just a month before, and they did!! Jim, the coordinator at Direct Entertainment frequently checked in with us, asked us questions about ourselves, and genuinely made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He was great to work with leading up to being assigned our designated DJ and videographer, and even after, he checked in to make sure we were happy and that all of the planning was going well. Overall, we would 1000% recommend Direct Entertainment for any wedding entertainment needs! I know they also offer several other services that we did not utilize, and I'm sure they are wonderful as well! Photos courtesy of Lang at Wandering Wolf Photography.

We can’t say enough great things about our experience with Complete Weddings Events for our DJ and photo booth. Jade was our DJ and she was OUTSTANDING. She crushed the ceremony music transitions and setting up our audio needs for our officiant and for our speeches. It truly felt like we were partying with an old friend with the way she picked the perfect balance of classic songs, modern faves, and some of the club classics we used to party to in the early 00’s in college. She suggested a final dance song for just us after all our guests left and it was truly the best end to the evening and something we wouldn’t have thought of at all. We’re already trying to find a way to have her DJ another party for us! Katie was our Photo Booth operator and she did an AMAZING job with our guest book and in making sure guests kept taking pictures all night long. We had such an amazing time and the value for the money is unmatched!

Hey, I'm Anthony! I'm a Singer-Songwriter, Pianist, and Guitarist in the Albany region. I've always loved bringing people's musical visions to life, whether it be producing and arranging music for artists like Scott Hoying from Pentatonix, or filling an event with sound that speaks to the people there. A lot of musicians try to BE the thing, but I've always love being a PART of something bigger, like a wedding. While I live in Albany, I'm willing to travel almost anywhere - feel free to get in touch whether you want me to come to you, or if you're planning a destination wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're looking to add something truly unique, emotional and memorable to your wedding day, look no further. Anthony is one of the most talented songwriters I've ever heard, and his ability to feel, empathize, and tell stories comes together in perfect harmony through his music. It's not often you find somebody who has all the components to take a musician from great to one of a kind, but Anthony is absolutely that person. I wrote my vows and shared my first dance to a song that he wrote for me and my wife. We eloped on the black sand beach of Iceland, and brought a portable speaker so we could have this dance. Have you ever heard a song at the perfect moment and it feels like it could be included in the soundtrack to your life? Anthony will write that song for you, to pair with one of the most incredible moments of your life, and each time you listen to it again or it comes on shuffle, it'll take you right back to the moments you hold dear like an intimate journal entry only you and your spouse could ever truly feel. If you're even on the fence, don't hesitate to reach out. It was one of the best decisions I ever made.

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

Chris was so nice and easy to work with from start to finish. He kept the energy up and the dance floor full all night long! We were able to share a list of songs ahead of time and coordinate the timing of special moments like our ceremony processional, entrances, and first dance, which all went perfectly. We also booked our photo booth through the same company, which made coordination super easy and seamless. Everything went off without a hitch, and we couldn’t have been happier with the music and flow of the night.

Soul Session Edu-tainment, Inc. 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1
  • Serves Castleton-on-Hudson, NY

Soul Session, a high energy musical ensemble that will make you dance, scream, and jump around all night long with entertaining command. Led by "Soulist” Garland Nelson, 2019 Proctor’s Eddies Award Winner "Best R&B Vocalist," Soul Session's emotive style across all genres earned them the distinction of 2024 & 2019 Eddies Award Winners "Best Band in Capital Region NY" and nominee in 2025!

Where do we even begin? We knew our wedding was going to be amazing, but Soul Session made it the best party we’ve ever been to. From the very beginning, Garland took on the role of more than just bandleader — he became a true partner in the planning process. We had no idea what we were doing when it came to wedding planning, but Garland’s experience and genuine care made everything feel easy. He guided us through every step, from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception, with regular phone calls where he got to know us — not just our music taste, but our story, our personalities, and even the vibe of our families and guests. He literally has weddings down to a science. The ceremony music? Absolutely beautiful — there were tears the moment we heard his voice. The cocktail hour? A perfect, personalized soundtrack. The reception? Unreal. Garland also sang all of our first dances — and it was one of the most emotional, intimate parts of the night. His voice brought so much feeling and made those moments even more unforgettable. It felt personal and live in a way no recording ever could. From the second the wedding party entered, the energy was off the charts. Every single member of Soul Session is so talented — the flow, the vocals, the musicianship, the chemistry — it felt like we were at the most epic concert and the most special celebration of our lives, all in one. Everyone — young, old, and in between — was dancing all night long. We had so many guests tell us it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. Some even asked if Garland was a family member because of how connected he was to us and how personally he delivered every moment. He listened so closely to everything we shared in the planning process and wove it all into something unforgettable. Soul Session is pure magic. Garland is a genius. If you want your wedding to feel joyful, emotional, wildly fun, and completely you — hire them. It will be the best decision you make.

Saratoga Sound DJ and Acoustic: Based in Saratoga Springs, NY, serving the NE Tri-State area and Florida. Husband-and-wife team, Paul Othon and Karen Lawrence Othon, offer professional DJ services with the option to add live acoustic music. We can DJ your entire event from start to finish, or you can enhance your day by adding our acoustic duo for your ceremony and cocktail hour. Every reception is always DJ'd beginning to end, with super-fun mixes that keep your personal favorites in the spotlight. We work closely with each couple to create a wedding that feels like you, and we know how to keep the dance floor full all night.

When I first found Saratoga Sound online and listened to clips of their live music as well as their DJ receptions, I knew we had found our DJ for the wedding. After an initial meeting with Karen and Paul, we immediately booked with them. They made planning so easy and helped work with us to shorten our parent dance songs while still feeling like they were a complete song! Saratoga Sound is the best of both worlds with their live acoustic music for cocktail hour, and DJ services for the reception, and our guests loved it! The music during the reception was at a good volume for dinner, and Karen even went up to my mom during dinner to check in which my mom really appreciated. They did an amazing job reading the dance floor and keeping the party going until the very end! They finished the night with Love Story which was one of my song requests, but I had not specifically requested it at the end – it ended up being the most perfect end to our wedding and a memory I will never forget. I cannot recommend Karen and Paul enough to future couples looking for live music and a DJ! Thank you, Karen and Paul!! Photos: Caitlin Miller Photography

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

In today's world everything is extremely overpriced and service is terrible. My wedding was very stressful for me because of this. I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!

Wedding advice: hire Cover Story Entertainment! We worked with CSE for our July wedding. We went with the ceremony package, 6-piece band as well as their uplighting and photo booth services. Our experience with CSE from start to finish was 10/10. Chris and Elena are incredibly organized, communicative, and responsive. They always answered all of our questions (and I asked many!) Alec, Alex, Savannah, and the rest of the band members rocked it all night. One of the first things guests commented on about our wedding was how amazing the band was. One of our guests commented that they wish they could cancel their DJ and fly CSE to their wedding in Portugal because they loved them so much.

I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) open-format DJ & MC who specializes in weddings for couples who want a packed dance floor and peace of mind. I make sure every guest feels included and engaged from cocktail hour through the final song. I focus on smooth transitions, natural energy, and zero cheesy mic work. I provide professional sound, immersive dance-floor lighting, uplighting, and a photo booth guests love — so you can relax and fully enjoy an unforgettable night.

Booking DJ Ore was one of the best calls we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to the last song at 1am, he was on top of everything — quick to respond, organized, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. We got married at a camp in the Catskills with the ceremony out in the woods, which meant some tricky logistics: separate sound for the ceremony in the trees, load-in with the venue staff, a timeline that kept shifting on him. Ore handled all of it and we never had to think about any of it. The music was unreal, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Our guests basically refused to leave it, and we honestly lost count of how many people came up to us throughout the night to say how good the music and the DJ were. The thing I'll always remember, though, is how he made space for my Tío to play. My Tío sang and played guitar, and Ore made sure he had everything he needed to do it right. He and Chris brought so much energy and just knew how to keep the room going. If you want a DJ who's professional, easy to talk to, and cares about your day, book him. Thank you for everything, Ore — you gave us a night we won't forget. Cannot recommend enough.

It was an absolute pleasure to work with Dave ('Fish') as our wedding MC & DJ. From our first meeting, he knew exactly how to mitigate the stress and bring out the best of both of us. He was ALWAYS the first of my vendors to write back to an email, even the night before the wedding to perfect the bride's processional. And not for nothing, but our guests also loved him; song selection was on point, and we could enjoy the night knowing he had everything under control. Might just have to get married again to hang with this guy one more time.

DJ Steff was fantastic — we got compliments from guests of all ages all night. He was responsive, organized, and flexible; when we decided last-minute to skip the shoe game due to golden hour timing, he adapted without any fuss. The ability to submit must-play, play-if-possible, play-if-requested, and do-not-play lists separately was a great touch, along with the complimentary dance floor lighting and photo booth. Our guests raved about what a great DJ he was too. One of them even said “I want to get married again just so I can hire your DJ”. Highly recommend!

We are so glad we went with DJ Maxx for our wedding! We were looking for someone who would be able to cater to all of our needs (English and Spanish playlists) but who didn't bring a 'club promoter' vibe to the function! We found that and more in DJ Maxx! The dry ice and party lights made the night so fun! Everyone's told us how much fun they had at our wedding and how nice it was to be able to discreetly (lol) make song requests! Definitely recommend!

Lucas knows his stuff but also makes a point to know your stuff just as well. He sees the big picture of your wedding day and is beyond generous with his knowledge. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to schedule time with him leading up to the wedding. We had several video calls and he was always calm and confident as we dished him all the stress we could manage. He knew just what to say to ease our tensions with any part of the process and was helpful on all fronts, not just the music. Imagine a young Rick Rubin who’s going to make your day happen through fierce professionalism and calming holistic approach. Day of, Lucas was there early and making sure all the gear was working and problem solving on the scene to make the experience even better than we had talked about. He was able to not only have the music playing through the two large speakers we had planned for outside, but also got it seemlessly hooked up to the speakers throughout the interior space. This was key, because we had to last minute move the whole wedding inside due to rain. It was priceless to see see Lucas problem solving all of that with plenty of time to spare because I had so many other things to worry about with the shifting rain plans. I knew I didn’t have to worry about that whole part of it though, and the quality of the sound throughout the day really smoothed over all of the last minute adjustments and helped make everything feel like it was all part of the plan. It was a perfect day beyond my wildest expectations, and Lucas Walters was a huge part of that.

We worked with Paul for our January wedding. Originally, I was going to just create a playlist (I was having little to no formalities) until I saw he commented on a Connecticut Bride Facebook Group. Figured a DJ will give me one less thing to worry about, so I inquired and he immediately responded, provided a quick quote, and we set up our first meeting. He just made everything so easy! We had two one-hour long meetings to clearly identify our vision. My father passed a few years ago and we did many things to honor him at the party- signature cocktail, my sister spoke about him in her speech, his two best friends gave a combined toast on his behalf, but what made me really feel my dad was celebrated and “there in spirit” was when Paul intentionally played my dad’s favorite song prior to the first speech. It almost felt like that was my dad’s speech/toast to us. Family and friends picked up on Paul’s placement of my dad’s favorite song and commented that they were moved by it too. It was the only point of the night I got emotional. Paul really cares about his work and the people he works with. I’ve been to a handful of weddings where DJs play the couple’s Do Not playlist and just treats every wedding the same. I seriously can’t recommend Paul more.
