“We absolutely loved having Corey with Faithful Frequencies as our wedding DJ! From start to finish, he was fantastic to work with. He was so helpful during the planning process — super organized, responsive, and made everything easy for us. On the big day, he nailed every detail, from the introductions to the timing of songs. The dance floor was full all night long, and he played everything we asked for (and somehow read the crowd perfectly!). Our guests had an amazing time, and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Cole absolutely delighted and exceeded our wildest expectations at our wedding. He embraced the costume theme of our reception, performed significantly more music than we had expected (in a good way), and was the absolute heart and soul of our party. He improvised and adapted to every unique situation on the night with a musical and social sense of awareness that we continue to be grateful for. He even graciously agreed to play alongside Andrea's 94 year old grandmother on her accordion. Grandma is still beaming from this experience, and trust me, she's a hard woman to please. Seriously. I don't think we can ever repay him for the joy and energy he brought to our night. I couldn't get to the bar for a drink without answering the question: "Where did you FIND this guy?!" half a dozen times.”

Nostalgia Rush 
Rating: 5.0 (21 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • DJ
  • Starts at $4,500
  • Serves Cedar Rapids, IA

After I finished my PhD in genetics and molecular biology at Yale, I left behind a career as a research scientist to pursue a lifelong dream as a professional sax player. While the pandemic was a roadblock to many musicians, I managed to gain momentum as a street performer when I began hosting outdoor concerts for the local entertainment-deprived graduate students. A few of my fellow graduates asked me to perform at their weddings, and even DJ, so I spent the next two years honing my skills and constructing a very 80's synthwave-style brand and equipment to match the vibe.

“Lucas was the life of the party at our Oak Hill Farm wedding and made our day truly incredible. From our first conversation, he was responsive and professional, getting back to us right away with thoughtful answers to all our questions. What really blew us away was how he learned multiple songs just for us and coordinated seamlessly with our DJ to create different vibes throughout the night. His energy was contagious and kept our guests dancing the entire time. We loved how he adapted the setlist and mood as the evening went on, from dinner to dancing. If you want a musician that will bring the fun and help create an unforgettable celebration, Nostalgia Rush is your answer. Our guests still talk about how much fun he brought to our wedding.”

I thought Crowd Controllers Worldwide was a necessary name for my company because I've been Worldwide Controlling Crowds. I have ONE job, and that's to make sure that the Bride and Groom have a good time. Once I do that, everyone else will follow.

The dance floor was packed for most of the night and the only reason we couldn’t keep partying was due to the weather!

With more than 25 years of actual DJ experience, you won’t find a more accomplished, skilled and entertaining person to help you with your wedding. Music has been in my life from an early age. At 8 years old, I would pretend to DJ on the radio using my parents’ Beach Boys records and a wooden spoon for a mic. At 17, I started DJing on the radio and I was hooked! In college I majored in communication and performing arts, where I honed my improvisation and listening skills to better connect with people and smoothly adjust to every situation.

“DJ Cox Entertainment was an amazing addition to our wedding day. From the very beginning, their communication was easy, helpful, knowledgeable and understanding. The quality of their work and value was incredible - they kept things running smoothly, maintained precise control over everything, and kept our guests energized and dancing all night long. DJ Cox made our wedding festivities, from start to finish, stress-free and so much fun. We highly recommend them for any event, but especially your wedding!”
