“Brian, our DJ was fantastic. He was so attentive and followed every request to a T. He was SO happy for us and truly genuine in his well wishes for me and my husband. He kept the dance floor packed all night, filled in the blanks where I couldn’t come up songs, and kept everything running smoothly! We appreciate him so much, and wish Mr. Brian the absolute best. Jim, the owner, was also extremely communicative and so easy to work with and kind. It’s more than just a business to them, they actually care about your special day.

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.”

“DJ Low with GenerationNOW was PERFECT!!!!! He was so accommodating and sweet to us throughout the entire process. He never made us feel rushed, or pressured to do things a certain way. He supported our music taste and had great song recommendations in every genre. During dinner, we threw a last minute curveball at him to DJ a game we played with all the tables, and he executed it perfectly on the fly. His emceeing was perfect and got the crowd hyped! Just the perfect amount of talking on the mic and only when necessary and when additive. I still have "GIVE IT UP FOR YOUR BRIDES!" stuck in my head in DJ Low's voice, and I love it because he provided the best party we could've ever asked for. GenNow was worth the extra money because they deliver on their promise of a dang good party. My people were JAMMING!!!!!!”

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 had “OG DJ Chad” (per his name tag - lol) he was honestly the best person we could have asked for. He was engaging, able to read the room, recommended a lot of songs for our needs, and was just overall really good. My wife and I were really laid back about what we wanted and he was willing to work with us on everything! When we met with him on what we wanted, and everything after all was said and done and talked about, he wanted to remind us that no matter what happens, the wedding will still go on and we are still going to be married, and to remember to have fun. We truly loved working with instant request and Chad most of all. Thank you so much!”

“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.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“As a wedding photographer, I've experienced the impact vendor communication has on the overall perfection of a wedding day. I have had several opportunities to work along side Tyler Herwig and even though our wedding day roles are different Tyler's professionalism and attention to detail spills out inspiring everyone involved to go above and beyond. Knowing that Tyler is keeping guests entertained during happy hour helped my bride and groom relax while we took some time for a few post ceremony photos. Tyler easily makes the switch from ceremony accompaniment to happy hour melodies to filling the air with that perfect love song as the bride and groom dance their first dance. I highly recommend Tyler Herwig to create that perfect 'soundtrack' for your special day.”
