The Best Soul &amp; Motown Wedding Bands &amp; DJs in Cheltenham, MD

“My wife and I were so fortunate to have picked DJ Torpedo & Co. for our May 2024 wedding in Georgetown. I feel music and the emcee often makes or breaks a great wedding, so I spent considerable time reviewing possible DJs to work with. We ended up going to DJ Addison, who at the time was considered a "first-year DJ." He exceeded all expectations. Addison was simply a treat to work with in the planning stages and was exceptionally on point and professional during the wedding day. He's funny but classy, professional but not uptight, willing to make on-the-fly changes, and kept the dance floor hopping during the reception. From his bridal party introductions to saying goodbye at the end of the night, he was simply great. Our wedding was moved inside at the last minute due to rain and he somehow relocated his setup on the fly and didn't complain or seem stressed during the chaos. DJ Torpedo offers a really wonderful music planning app that is easy to understand and pick your songs from ceremony to reception. The app has YouTube integration that allows you to easily assemble your playlists. DJ Torpedo (Josh, the owner) was always quick to respond to emails and calls and was an utmost professional throughout. A -- Devin & Jade.”

“We could not write enough amazing things regarding our experience with Baltimore Sound Entertainment. We booked a DJ (Jeff) and a glam photo booth with them and both services were outstanding. My husband and I love house music, and it was so important that the music played at our wedding was authentically us. Jeff absolutely nailed it and our guests had a blast, calling it their first "rave wedding"! In addition, the Photo Booth turned out to be exactly what I had in mind. The "glam" filter made everyone look flawless and the attendant was kind and helpful. Guests could print as many copies as they wanted. We received the digital files two days after our wedding and now get to cherish these fun images forever. Look no further for your sound and entertainment needs!”

“DJ Neal was an amazing choice for our recent wedding at the Rust Manor House in Leesburg, VA. From the beginning of the wedding process, DJ Neal was friendly, communicative, and thoughtful. He took into consideration some of our favorite artists and curated a wonderful playlist for our wedding day (i.e., ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). We had quite a unique request being “early 2000s nostalgia” for the reception and he delivered! During couples portraits before the ceremony, I remember telling people how much I enjoyed the music he was playing. Additionally, during our reception in the outdoor tent, everyone was out of their seat and on the dance floor. As someone who considers themselves a homebody, he really brought me and my (now) husband out of our shells and created such a fun energy. The transitions between songs were so smooth and well executed. Additionally, he was a wonderful and well-spoken MC for our event. We really appreciated him for being part of our big day! Thank you so much, DJ Neal, I can’t wait to continue telling all of my friends and family members how amazing you were.”

“Our experience with Jeff was excellent from start to finish, and we highly recommend him for any event. After contacting numerous DJs, we found that many were slow to respond, lacked transparent pricing, or spent more time trying to upsell us on extras we didn't want than learning about our vision. Jeff was exactly the opposite. Communication was prompt and effortless, his pricing was fair and transparent, and he offered everything we were looking for, including sound systems for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, as well as attending our rehearsal to ensure the ceremony music went smoothly. The true measure of a great wedding vendor, though, is how they handle the unexpected. During our reception, a miscommunication left our wedding coordinator absent for much of the evening. Without missing a beat, Jeff stepped in to help keep everything on track, coordinating announcements for speeches, cake cutting, our first dance, and a group photo. He struck exactly the low-key, relaxed tone we wanted and quietly kept the evening moving behind the scenes. Jeff was professional, dependable, and genuinely invested in making our wedding a success. We're so grateful we found him and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.”

“The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!”

“I almost don't have the words to describe how perfect our wedding day was because of Jeremy, but I'm going to give it a go! One of the most important aspects of the evening to me and my partner was the music that would be played for our event. We spent a literal year going over what songs we wanted to have played for the big night, and Jeremy effortlessly took the playlists we provided him and made the night a HIT. I even had someone come up to me on the dace floor and say "This guy rocks! I want him at my wedding!", and if that doesn't tell you how amazing he was, I don't know what will. Truly, the best.”

We asked Daryle to create a dance-club-like atmosphere where everyone could let loose—and he absolutely delivered. Every time we asked our guests what they thought of the wedding, they raved about how incredibly fun the dance floor was. From start to finish, Daryle was organized, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. His deep understanding of mixing music and his uncanny ability to read the room and adjust to the energy were particularly impressive.

“I first encountered 24k at a wedding that I attended in 2022. When it came time for my wedding, I remembered how they were so lively and energetic, and I inquired if they could come out a little further, even though my (June 2026) wedding was in West Virginia. The band was both flexible and easy-going about that and they DID NOT DISAPPOINT on the dance floor! Jill was the main point of contact and she asked all the right questions, including very kindly making doubly sure that everyone’s names were pronounced correctly during reception introductions (there were Chinese, European, and African names in the mix!). We made specific requests for the Bridal Party intro and First Dance songs that the band agreeably accommodated. For example, I entered into the reception with the Wyclef Jean song “911” and the band DJ’ed the song at the right parts so that my friend and vocalist could sing it live as my husband I entered the reception area (I’m 5’1” and the song references an “assailant” who is 5’1”, so it was important to get the timing right for comedic effect!) They were open to that collaboration that made the event more fun. We also asked that the lyrics of the Avett Brothers song “January Wedding” be changed to “June Wedding” when the band performed the First Dance. In terms of their actual performance, 24k BROUGHT IT (!!!). Besides sounding fantastic, the band members have great chemistry with each other and appear to actually just enjoy the music themselves. We had a diverse guest list (188 guests), and family members old and very young, co-workers, church and other friends, and friends from our martial arts dojo community, were all on the dance floor. Folks were having a GREAT time. The band maintained energy on the floor until the very end. Even the venue staff at our open bar were dancing along all night; and our wedding coordinator staff shared with me how “amazing” they thought 24K was when I walked past them! I should also mention that the individual band members I interacted with during the night were very kind and engaging. One mentioned to me that he had read the answers to our couple Bingo Trivia game that was posted and that he felt like he knew us already from reading it! You could see this open spirit in the performance of the band. After our Grand Exit, my husband and I walked about a 100 yards to our lodgings on the venue site (The Bavarian Inn); however, we stopped on our balcony to hear the band lead the guests in singing the song “Country Roads” to close out the night. We watched the twinkly lights sparkling in the distance as we heard the joy of both the band and the guests. It was truly remarkable! After the wedding, MANY guests commented on how much they enjoyed 24k’s live performance. There is a world of difference between a DJ and a quality live band, and having 24k –a *very high* quality band – made our wedding celebration so much more special, joyous, and FUN!”

If you’ve had a good time at a wedding or event in the DC/Maryland/VA area, chances are it was DJ Casanova that got you moving. You know him as DJ Casanova, but around the office, we just call him Jamie. Back in the day, he was just a child of immigrants recording his favorite songs over his parent’s cassette tapes (sorry Mom and Dad) so he could listen to them on his prized Walkman. Jamie entered the DJ field in 2009, and before long he was spinning something at a different party every week. Pretty soon he realized that sharing his love of music with like-minded folks was more than just a hobby, it was a gift.

“DJ Casanova was recommended to us by our venue and we could not have been happier with our decision to have him DJ our wedding reception. He is extremely organized and responsive. He shared a wedding planning sheet with us that allowed us to build our timeline and reception playlist. He also allowed us to create our own playlists for cocktail hour and dinner music (though he has some of his own playlists that we 'stole' some songs from too). What really made DJ Casanova stand out was that he met with us virtually (we don't live in the DMV area) multiple times before our wedding. His main focus during the first session was to learn about us as individuals and a couple, as well as our families. The second session was focused on logistics, name pronunciations, etc. He was extremely receptive to our requests and made the wedding day exactly what we wanted. Many of our guests asked us how we found our DJ because they were so blown away with the musical selections he played and how friendly he was during the reception. We give our highest recommendation!”

Tracey did a wonderful job with the Photo Booth from the background to the props to ensuring a fun experience for us and our guests. I really could not recommend them higher. We got so much added value from their services. We definitely got our money’s worth—more than we paid for really. I highly recommend them both!”

From our very first meeting, Don X understood our vision completely. We were planning a vibrant fusion of our cultures, a blend of Asian and African-American traditions, and we wanted a celebration that honored both sides with authenticity, joy, and respect. He worked with us to create a playlist that seamlessly wove together classic Motown and Afrobeat with Bhangra, Bollywood, and modern pop hits. He curated the perfect musical journey for our day. Don X was a legend at the reception! He masterfully read the room from the very first beat. He started with soulful classics that got our older relatives on their feet, slowly built the energy with 90s R&B anthems that had everyone singing along.

Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show.

He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end!

“We had a wonderful time working with Lucy Black Entertainment. They were very accommodating as we kept making changes to our music preferences. We worked with DJ Tezrah, who kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. So many people complicated us on having amazing music - and it was all Tezrah! We really appreciated how easy it was to communicate with the staff. They also had a bunch of suggestions when we were struggling to figure out how to move forward with various music ideas, and that really helped us flesh out our own vision. I would definitely recommend working with them!”

“A Squad Events was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was easy, responsive, direct, and organized, which made the planning process a breeze. The quality of their work and the value they provided was exceptional - they were respectful, passionate, and diligent in ensuring our special day was perfect. The music they played kept the energy in the room lively and energetic, and even helped bring my parents closer together on our wedding day. We couldn't have asked for a better band and DJ duo to make our wedding celebration so memorable. Highly recommend A Squad Events to any couple looking to have an amazing time on their big day!”
