“Vow and Vibe DJ was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding! From the moment I first reached out, Jeremy was easy to get in touch with, and I could tell he was going to be a fun person to work with just through our text conversations. On the day of the wedding, Jeremy was efficient, talented, and truly wonderful - he took our chaotic 100 song playlist for song ideas and expertly mixed to make almost the entire crowd be on the dance floor the entire night. My husband and I especially were on the dance floor dancing and singing our hearts out and we had the best time thanks to Jeremy's work. Even to the extent that myself and my fellow Irish dancers did a reel at some point. I would highly recommend Vow and Vibe DJ to any couple looking for a DJ who will make their wedding day truly special.”

DJ Grateful Dan 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $900
  • Serves Cottonwood, AL

I’ve spent close to 30 years behind the decks and have DJ’d more than 1,500 weddings. I’ve worked traditional, multicultural, religious, themed weddings, as well as Bar and Bat Mitzvah, unconventional and wonderfully quirky celebrations, along with major corporate, political and private events. I love the challenge of bringing very different people together through music. Every event is different, and my job is to listen, understand what matters to you, build the right musical experience, and keep the reception moving naturally. I’m just as comfortable handling the formalities and microphone as I am taking over the dance floor when it’s time to party. Best of Bay Nominee - 2026

“DJ Grateful Dan was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. His experience really shows!! The music was mixed perfectly, the flow of the night was seamless, and his energy was infectious without ever feeling cheesy or over-the-top. He knew exactly when to keep the energy going and when to let the moment speak for itself. He worked closely with our wedding coordinator throughout the entire day and was incredibly easy to work with. Even when we made changes right up to the last minute, he was flexible, accommodating, and made everything happen without adding any stress to our day. We honestly feel like we found a hidden gem. If you want a wedding DJ who knows precisely what he’s doing, reads the room, works well with your other vendors, and genuinely cares about making your wedding special, we cannot say enough positive things about DJ Grateful. We were so happy to have found him!!”

Let me ensure that happens.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Not sure where to begin writing this review. There are truly no words big enough to describe how special Cello Joe was as our wedding DJ. He wasn’t just a part of our wedding day, he made our wedding day. From the very first moment to the very last song, he gave us something so magical, so unforgettable, that it still makes us emotional to think about. He was literally the heartbeat of our day. He played live cello pre ceremony for all the guests to enjoy that was truly so beautiful. But the live cello as I walked down the aisle is a memory etched into our hearts forever. It was more than music. It felt like the soundtrack to our love story, and it was the most beautiful beginning to the rest of our lives. Then, during cocktail hour, he transformed the atmosphere with looping, beatboxing, and cello in a way that left every single guest completely captivated. People couldn’t stop talking about it, and even now, they’re still telling us it was the most unique and breathtaking performance they’ve ever experienced at a wedding from start to finish. And then there was the saxophonist he brought in during the dance party. pure magic. Together, they created an energy that was electric, soulful, and overflowing with joy. They didn’t just entertain, they touched every heart in the room. Not only was he the most talented cello musician, he absolutely crushed the dance party and played non stop for 3:30 hours. Not one bad song or bad mix. It was absolutely incredible. But what truly sets him apart is how much heart he pours into what he does. Without us even knowing, he recorded our entire ceremony, our cocktail hour, our dance floor, and gifted us not just music, but memories. He allowed us to relive the most important day of our lives again and again. That level of thoughtfulness is beyond anything we could have imagined. Our wedding was perfect because of him. He exceeded every expectation and gave us more than we ever dreamed possible. He is, without question, the most talented, kind, and extraordinary musician and DJ we have ever met. If we could give him more than 5 stars, we would. To us, he isn’t just the best wedding DJ in the world, he’s someone we will forever be grateful for, someone who gave us the gift of a wedding day that truly felt like a dream. Cello Joe, thank you for all the moments you created throughout our weekend. You truly are one of the most talented people we’ve ever met and I will be recommending you to everybody I know!!”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Sarah Beth! I was extremely stressed about choosing the right songs for our ceremony, but she was so calming, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. She truly made everything feel easy and guided me in a way that took so much pressure off. She even went above and beyond by learning a new song that my husband absolutely loves, which meant so much to us. Honestly, my husband wasn’t fully on board with hiring a violinist at first, but after the wedding, he admitted it was one of the best decisions we made and was so glad we chose Sarah Beth! Her music added such a beautiful and special touch to our ceremony, and everything flowed perfectly thanks to her help with timing and coordination. I couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out. My only advice to future brides is to make sure you have someone record this part of your day or designate a family member to capture some moments—I didn’t, and I definitely regret not having more footage of such a special addition. If you’re considering a violinist, I highly recommend Sarah Beth. She truly helped make our day perfect!”

Your wedding deserves more than someone who just presses play. I'm Jason Roby, owner of Jason Roby Entertainment. As a professional DJ, musician, vocalist, and experienced MC, I create receptions that feel effortless, keep guests engaged, and fill the dance floor. Every celebration is customized around your personalities, your guests, and the experience you want people talking about long after the last dance.

“As someone who has danced my entire life and after being around countless DJs over the years, I can say with total confidence that Jason Roby is one of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve also danced my entire life, so I’m extra particular about music flow, rhythm, and keeping a beat you can actually move to. He absolutely nails it. I’m picky about DJs. Nothing drives me crazier than a DJ who can’t keep a steady beat or doesn’t know how to read the room. Jason Roby exceeded every expectation. He’s not just a DJ - Jason is a musician and a great singer, and you can tell immediately. His knowledge of music shines through in the way he keeps the flow smooth, the transitions clean, and the dance floor moving. Every song made sense with the next one, which is rare but so important for keeping guests dancing. What really sets him apart, though, is his personality. He connects with people so naturally—clients, guests, all ages—which instantly makes the atmosphere more fun and engaging. He’s warm, charismatic, and knows how to bring the crowd together without ever being over the top. It’s the kind of presence that turns a playlist into an experience. His wide range of music knowledge is a huge benefit, especially at weddings. He keeps everyone included—from teens to grandparents—and offers thoughtful ideas for special songs and moments throughout the night. He’s not just a DJ; he’s a talented singer and true musician, and that background shows in how he reads the room and keeps the energy exactly where it needs to be. His transitions are seamless, his timing is spot-on, and he knows how to keep people on the dance floor from start to finish. If you’re looking for a DJ who understands music, understands people, and brings genuine talent and heart to every event, we highly recommend him.”

He took the time to learn new songs just for us, which meant more than I can even put into words.

We received so many compliments throughout the day about how amazing he was, and he created the most romantic, fun, and memorable atmosphere. It truly elevated the entire experience.
