Awarded Best of Zola
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you for being an amazing DJ. You truly went above and beyond for Ken and I to make our wedding day special. We are grateful beyond words for your kindness, professionalism, and class. My husband and I had made a Spotify list since we knew what songs we liked and had been to other weddings in the past. Ken and I wanted to find a DJ that would LISTEN and we found him!!!! Hiring DJ Ivan was the best decision we made (besides marrying each other). DJ Ivan and Imani were extremely professional, kind, and classy. They asked each bridesmaid and groomsman how to pronounce their names and he was very detailed oriented. He made our wedding day his own and only offered the best service. I would ONLY recommend DJ Ivan to family and friends. If you don’t want to worry about your DJ and want him to listen to you, hire DJ Ivan. You will not be disappointed. In a world where people do not go above and beyond…DJ Ivan fights that stigma and gave us so much more. Thank you DJ Ivan and we will be sending everyone to you!

The Cleveland Keys were great to work with. They were organized, professional and so very kind. We truly had the time of our lives.

Awarded Best of Zola
I booked C-Town Entertainment at the recommendation of another bride, and I was so happy with Bob and his assistant! I may be biased, but ours was one of the most fun weddings I have been to. Everything ran smoothly and Bob did a great job reading the room and picking songs that brought people to the dance floor whenever needed. He checked in with me and my family/bridal party throughout the evening and made last minute adjustments as needed. He was professional and made sure we had all the moments and songs that we wanted. I have been to weddings with DJs who were not as skilled and it makes a big difference in the flow and energy of the evening. My guests started chanting “one more song!” at the end of the evening, and I think that says it all. I cannot thank you all enough for the care you put into our wedding!

He made it so easy to enjoy the party and truly made the event a celebration. He was easy to communicate with and flexible with changes we made last minute.

Cleveland, OH
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500

Established in 2019, Soul Shake & The Eastside Horns has become synonymous with outstanding musicianship, contagious energy, and our high-spirited connection with the audience. The band consists of Devon Marcell and Mary Petras on lead vocals, Joe Romito and Jim Horvath on guitars, Dave Fees on bass guitar, Dave Urick on keys, Michael J Graehling on drums, Todd Clay on trumpet, and Rich Cavanagh and J. Calvin on saxophones.

Awarded Best of Zola
Soul Shake and the Eastside Horns is a 10-piece high energy band that plays an extensive selection of music from the 1960's to today. They played for my son's wedding on September 15, 2025 and we could not have been happier! They were very professional and engaging with the wedding party and guests. They had a special crate with shakers and tambourines for audience participation on the dance floor too! We were able to preview the playlist and select songs that were personal to our special day. Communication was best done via email but text and phone calls were helpful for last minute updates and changes leading up to the wedding date. We had an outdoor farm style wedding and they were more than adequately prepared to play for this type of venue. As a courtesy, we provided an open air tent, beverages and food for the band members as most of them traveled an hour or more to our special event. The cost was very reasonable for our budget as well. I highly recommend you check out their internet webpage or look them up on Facebook. They play venues all over the Cleveland area, so it would be easy for you to catch a live show before booking. Enjoy! We certainly did!

We use only the BEST equipment the industry has to offer. Stunning lighting effects, Full Room LED uplighting, pounding sound systems, & crystal clear microphones for speeches only skim the list. We offer our Indian Wedding DJ services in Columbus, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Chicago, and destination locations.

Absolutely amazing experience working with this team! We had received several strong recommendations for Crown Ent when we were on the hunt for our wedding DJ and we are so glad we made the choice to hire them. We are so happy with not only the music DJ Samir put on for our baraat, ceremony, and reception, but also with his attention to detail, constant friendly communication, and willingness to go above and beyond what we asked of him. Throughout the planning process, Samir was readily available for input on all aspects of the wedding weekend (timelines, floor plans, song edits, lighting items, backup plans, the list goes on and on). He was always a quick text away for any clarifications/questions/recommendations—we believe this focus on customer service is something that sets these guys apart from the rest. Instead of going through the hassle of providing a song list, we had a quick conversation with Samir about what we were looking for and he took that and ran with it. Our guests had an absolute blast as there were no lulls on the floor which we loved. We cannot stress how lucky we feel to have had Samir as our DJ. If you are looking for a great DJ company this is your stop!

WOW!! DJ Rev Dev truly knows how to throw a party! From the very start of the night, he set the tone perfectly transitioning our wedding party entrance seamlessly into the cake cutting.

I infuse sets that varies in genre, style & eras. I strive to provide a set that is enjoyable for all ages.

We hired DJ Sunset for Great Lakes Brewing Co's Halloween Bash in 2024, and it as by far the best decision we made. He not only went above and beyond by coming in costume and providing lighting, he tore the house down! Knows how to read the crowd, know how to keep the dance floor going and the people sweating. 10 out of 10 would recommend and plan to utilize his services again this year.

  • Serves Cleveland, OH

Sound Precision Entertainment has been making memories that last a lifetime for more than 15 years, providing exceptional entertainment in the Cleveland wedding market. It’s all about making our events as distinct as the couples that we’re honored to celebrate with. The goal: customization of every detail possible to ensure that your perfect wedding visions are brought to life.

We had John Fecko and John Toth as our DJs from SPE, and they honestly went above and beyond on the wedding day! From first meeting Scott Terranova at SPE in person, to the video calls with John and John, they were very thorough in making sure our day looked how we wanted it to. On the actual wedding day, they kept our reception lively and on time! They were able to read the crowd well and with our recommendations in mind. I was so worried our wedding would have an empty dancefloor considering the big age range and being hard to appeal to lots of generations, but John and John did so seamlessly. After a lot of shopping around during wedding planning, I believe the price of their services is of good value. As an add-on, I also opted to do uplighting. This was battery powered and had dynamic color-changing. The battery powered part is important for older venues that may not have as many outlets, and also avoids the trip hazard of too many wires on the floor. All and all 10/10 experience. Thank you!

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.

I can’t say enough good things about Tyson. He communicated with us so clearly, was so careful and caring with our day. We are extremely passionate about music and he took that to heart and curated the party vibe accordingly. Genuinely everyone was on the dance floor the entire night. He took a strange request from me for the father daughter dance and executed it exceptionally, he learned the song I wanted to walk the aisle to on guitar beautifully, and the photobooth was a HUGE hit. I had multiple people ask me if Tyson knew us personally because the music was perfectly synced to who we are. We spoke on the phone for over an our telling him what we like and don’t like and he really worked with it. We booked pretty much every service he offers and he knocked it all out of the park seamlessly.
