Awarded Best of Zola
We cannot say enough great things about Angelica and her team! We are one of those awkward people that don't take many photos, but thanks to our engagement session and our wedding photos, along with Angelica's coaching, we looked great in our photos and always had a blast in our photo shoots! Our wedding and engagement photos are amazing. When we think we were feeling awkward, our photos just show us in-love and having fun. There are many romantic photos that cater to my personality, and my husband loves the editorial look of many shots. Angelica is worth saving up and booking. We are glad our friend recommended her. Thank you Angelica! Everyone, just book her! You will not regret it!

Let me tell y’all - we had our wedding in a state we don’t live in, so it was very much a “trust the process and trust our vendors” kind of situation. Drew came THROUGH!!! She was so patient with us and made sure we had exactly what we wanted for our wedding cake, and oh my goodness was it delicious! My spouse and I had never eaten a wedding cake that 1) tasted so good, or 2) was that fluffy and moist. We were also able to get some allergy-friendly cupcakes, and they tasted exactly like the rest of the cake. We’re so glad we trusted Drew with our wedding cake and hope we have a reason to get a cake from them again soon!!

Butch Gray, Disc Jockey/Entertainer, LLC 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,200
  • Serves Essex, CT

There is an art to entertaining. To create a memorable wedding celebration, you need quality entertainment. Most events I do start with some common elements: guests, music and the client’s desire for the event to be successful. It’s the inspiration in the execution and preparation before the event that distinguishes me from the ordinary. While others may do events by number, I make each event an original, a unique reflection of my client…you! I take inspiration from your dreams and desires. I do not ask you to follow someone else’s format because I will thrive in yours.

We had an amazing experience working with DJ Butch for our wedding. He was a total professional from the start—super easy to talk to, always available for phone calls, and incredibly helpful with picking out music when we weren’t sure what we wanted. He made the planning process feel smooth and low-stress, always reassuring us that we were on track and had nothing to worry about. On the day of the wedding, it rained and we had to change plans last minute. It was chaotic, but Butch handled the curveball without missing a beat. He adjusted quickly, made everything work, and kept the energy high all night long. The dance floor was packed, and so many of our guests told us afterward how much fun they had. If you’re looking for a DJ who’s professional, calm under pressure, and knows how to throw a great party, we highly recommend Butch. He really helped make our day unforgettable.
