“Our wedding was at Erickson Farmstead July 13th, 2024. We were very un organized. We forgot to submit our music, despite the texts, calls, and emails, we just were focused on other parts of the wedding. We didn't realize how much this DJ company actually does! The DJ showed up and he was driven to make sure things were perfect! As expected, the dance floor was packed, amazing song after amazing song. When I'd try and leave, he'd put on the next song and right back out there! It was sooooo good. I've never been to a wedding where everyone dance all night and had the level of dedication and knowledge than DJ Sound. THIS is the ONLY comoany to go with.”

“Five Stars Doesn’t Do Them Justice! DJ Paul & AT Entertainment standardly made our wedding night! If you are looking for a wedding DJ, stop searching right now and book AT Entertainment. Working with DJ Paul was hands-down one of the absolute best decisions we made for our entire wedding! From the very first phone call, Paul made the entire booking and preparation process so seamless and stress-free. Planning a wedding can feel totally overwhelming, but his communication was top-tier. He was always super responsive, incredibly organized, organized down to the minute, and truly took the time to understand our vibe, music preferences, and vision for the big day. When it came to the wedding day, Paul blew all of our expectations out of the water. His skill as a DJ and MC is unmatched—he read the room perfectly, kept the energy high, and managed the flow of the night so effortlessly that my husband and I didn't have to worry about a single thing. On top of his incredible talent, his setup looked ultra-sleek, modern, and high-end—no messy wires or bulky equipment anywhere! The wireless up lighting completely transformed our reception venue, creating the absolute perfect, romantic ambient glow for dinner that seamlessly transitioned into a high-energy party atmosphere for dancing. And can we talk about the photo booth?! It was a MASSIVE hit! Our guests were gathered around it all night long taking pictures, having fun, and leaving us with memories we will treasure forever. Since the wedding, so many of our friends and family have reached out to tell us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to, and that the DJ was incredible. DJ Paul kept our dance floor packed from the very first song to the very last second of the night. Thank you, DJ Paul and AT Entertainment, for giving us the party of our dreams!

Nick Hyde DJ @ Violinist 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Ely, MN

Nick Hyde combines the classical elegance of the violin with the sound of a modern DJ. Couples don't have to choose between a DJ and live music, because with Nick Hyde they get both! Nick Hyde is a play-by-ear musician, meaning he can play any song you'd commonly hear at a wedding or on the dance floor, and can easily learn any requests. There's no hassle with sheet music, music stands, or anything else. Want to walk down the aisle, or have your first dance listening to a violinist playing along to your chosen song? That’s what Nick Hyde, DJ & Violinist does best.

“We booked the "All-Day Music Package" because we loved the idea of a violinist for "Bridgerton" vibes during the ceremony, and we loved that Nick was able to be both a DJ & violinist. One thing I also loved were his lights - We could tell they were synced to the music, and at one point, during "Party in the USA", the lights were an American flag pattern, which was so cool! Very detail oriented, very organized, and very responsive to all the questions I had (I had a lot... sorry Nick ;)) unlike some of my other vendors. Highly recommend him”

“We hired Intrinsic Groove to perform at our wedding in April 2026 and it was nothing short of INCREDIBLE. We watched a lot of videos and felt confident they were going to be great, but they far exceeded our expectations. They were high energy, crowd engaging, phenomenal performers who met the vibe every single time. Vocals were KILLER. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I credit a lot of that to the energy the band brought. On top of a killer reception, they also did incredible ceremony and cocktail hour music that made everything flow harmoniously. You just can’t beat a killer band for your wedding, worth every penny!

Julio’s love for music started at a young age; back when he carried his favorite CDs everywhere he went. His journey into DJing began with his father-in-law and quickly grew into a passion for bringing together the things he loves most: music, people, and entertaining. As a DJ, Julio loves creating unforgettable experiences, keeping the energy high, and making sure every couple has a celebration they’ll remember for years to come. When he’s not behind the turntables, you’ll find Julio spending quality time with his wife and two children or cheering on the Minnesota Vikings. SKOL!

“Elite Sound was the highlight of our reception. From our first conversation, the team was responsive and genuinely excited to help us plan the perfect playlist for our big day. They nailed every song we requested and had a real gift for reading the room and keeping the energy high all night long. Our guests couldn't stay off the dance floor, and we heard so many people say it was the best DJ experience they'd had at a wedding. The band's professionalism combined with their playful approach made everything feel effortless on our end. We can't recommend them enough to couples looking for a DJ that actually listens and delivers.”

Adagio was terrific. Shout out to Isaiah who is so calm and laid back, a real pleasure to work with. He was considerate and took our sample playlist and made it better. He really understood the tone and pacing of the wedding and the enhanced everything. The dance floor was active all night! Thank you.”

He handled both our ceremony and reception music, and everything was seamless from start to finish.

For the reception, he did an amazing job reading the room, keeping the energy going, and making sure everything flowed without us ever having to worry about what was happening next.

“Kyara was absolutely FABULOUS! She was so easy to communicate with, and my guests loved the music selection during dinner (a few even sang along occasionally). She learned 5 songs for our ceremony (all video game songs), and she also helped me surprise my bride by playing "All I Ask of You" from The Phantom of the Opera while I sang. She met with me in person to rehearse, and it was so natural singing with her. We obviously were not able to practice in the space beforehand, but it was PERFECT when the moment came to surprise my bride. The fact that she had a speaker setup was a huge bonus, and the baby grand shell added an extra layer of elegance to the setup that I loved. I cannot recommend Kyara enough- absolutely incredible, beyond talented, and truly made my vision for the day come to life. Music is a huge part of my life, and I am so glad that we chose Kyara to help bring that love to our guests.”

Hey, I'm Ben! A Minneapolis-based singer-songwriter whose music has been featured on ABC's Nashville, and in American Songwriter magazine. I delight in creating unforgettable wedding experiences, with the perfect song at the perfect moment. With over two decades performing at iconic Twin Cities venues like First Avenue, the Fitzgerald and State Theaters, and touring nationally and internationally, I specialize in delivering heartfelt acoustic performances that resonate emotionally and spiritually with couples and guests.

“We were planning a small wedding on a modest budget but knew the music had to be something special. As longtime fans of Romantica and Ben Kyle, we reached out to see if he’d perform at our ceremony and we’re so glad we did! Ben was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He helped us select the perfect mix of songs, including a mix of his originals and a beautiful cover that fit seamlessly into our ceremony. His music brought such heart and authenticity to our day, and his communication throughout the process was excellent. Truly one of the highlights of our wedding!”
