We gave Jeff the hard task of providing the atmosphere for our Backyard Brunch Wedding, and he ABSOLUTELY DELIVERED. Jeff made it his personal goal to create a dance floor at our reception, despite our crowd not exactly being the dance party type, and a well timed Dancing Queen worked perfectly. The best part of working with Jeff through, was the prep work before our event. He was incredibly thorough in his questions prepwork, and allowed us to express ourselves in our music choices. 12/10 would recommend to anyone.

I think beauty is important. Beauty is what inspires us to do something higher than our everyday. A wedding day should be full of beauty. Whether that means beautiful sounds or a beautiful place setting. In my opinion, the two are inextricably linked. Beauty is what I strive to create for each bride and groom.

Danielle and her amazing team at Divina Strings are a high energy and exciting group of performers that are a great fit for upscale clients looking for boutique wedding and event musicians. Highly recommend.

Nardella’s Music

5.0

Branford, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $850

At Nardella’s Music we understand that all clients deserve the absolute best in Service and Equipment at a reasonable price. With over 25 years of experience, over 200 hires on similar online platforms and more than 100 5 star reviews Dennis Nardella is rated a “Top Pro” for a reason. Every Client is different. I spend personal time meeting with each and every client working on a personal level to understand their needs and requests so their event is "their" event. I will put in the time that is needed to be certain your event is a success.

Dennis is the best DJ ever!!! My husband and I were absolutely blown away by how fantastic he was for our wedding. He put on a SHOW! There was a fog machine, up lights, and an entire light show, and microphones to sing along that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! Dennis has an awesome personality and is a blast to work with. On the wedding day he did just the right amount of talking and was able to really feel the vibe of the night and play music accordingly. So many people commented that they thought I had given him the playlist because he matched the type of music we wanted so perfectly! Dennis played a great combination of music that had guests of all ages enjoying the wedding and saying it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to. He was also able to get almost everyone at the wedding into a conga line! He was extremely flexible and more than willing to do help us coordinate many unique items throughout the night (shoe game, husband singing live, “father daughter dance mash up, table dash, reverse anniversary dance). We had a difficult and unique timeline compared to most weddings due to it being a backyard wedding with a not so strict timeline, and two ceremonies (an American ceremony and a Moroccan ceremony) each requiring their own music. Throughout the day, Dennis was flexible and coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors to adjust the timeline when we were running late and made sure it worked for everyone. He knew the best times to do all of the events at the reception and we were easily able to extend him for an hour on the day of the wedding when we realized everyone was having such a good time and we didn’t want the party to end! Dennis was extremely helpful throughout the whole planning process by getting an idea of the type of music we liked and then offering suggestions he thought we would like. He was spot on and made the whole process of selecting music for the whole wedding (so many more songs than I would have anticipated) so easy and ensured we loved what we picked, giving us time to make decisions without us feeling rushed, while also making sure we were getting him the information he needed when he needed it. He always gave his advice but let us have the final say. Dennis went above and beyond the responsibilities of a DJ and dived in to help make our wedding special. When my husband wanted to have me walk down the aisle to a recording of him singing and playing the guitar, Dennis offered his own studio to him to record. My husband was not able to take him up on the offer since we live out of state, but when he sent Dennis a phone recording, without asking, Dennis took it upon himself to do a bit of editing to make the song even more beautiful. When my husband told Dennis he wanted to play the guitar and sing live at the reception, Dennis brought his own music stand and set up everything. He made a fun mashup of songs I requested for my father daughter dance. Instead of table numbers, we named out tables different Moroccan city names. Dennis looked up fun facts about each city that he announced as guests went to the buffet to get their food. Dennis puts his heart and soul into each wedding and it truly shows. Dennis – we truly can’t thank you enough for giving us and our guests such an amazing and fun night. From us to my grandparents to my college friends to my husband’s Moroccan family members who came from Morocco to attend, you gave everyone a night they will never forget!

We booked DJ Justin for our wedding and would 100% book again! We felt this was a very affordable company on top of how happy we were with everything. Not only did he talk us through our timeline multiple times prior to the wedding (and never missed a beat the day of) but absolutely was the best DJ I’ve ever seen! He kept everyone dancing and was able to feel the vibe of the crowd and kept that going. I had multiple wedding guests say he was the best DJ they’ve been around as well as 2 bartenders say he was the best they’ve ever had and they do 2-3 weddings a weekend!

During the wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, he was also superb.

He even danced a little bit with our guests and took some selfies with everyone, we loved it. If we ever have a need for a DJ again, Joey G will definitely be at the top of our list.

Both my wife and I were genuinely intimidated by picking the right music and DJ for our wedding. While we were excited to find the right person, we weren't so jazzed about the process! Cassandra made it super easy to look through possible DJs and options, was helpful and communicative throughout the entire process, and helped make this piece of the wedding puzzle way less of a 'thing' than we thought it would be. Her recommendation for reception DJ and violinist at our ceremony were excellent, and the music made our day into the best day we both have ever had :) I can't recommend Bright Set highly enough!

If there’s one thing you should take away from this review, it is this - You should DEFINITELY hire Herbert Holler to DJ your wedding! From the very first phone call, it was obvious that he is someone who loves his job. He has an extensive knowledge and love of music means no matter what you want the soundtrack of your wedding or event to be, he’s got you and your guests of ALL ages covered. He was communicative, easy to work with, clearly invested in making sure we had a great time at our wedding, and that everything ran as smoothly as possible. In fact, at one point, he noticed from behind the booth that we were one man short for lifting someone up in the chair during our extensive Hora. So what did he do? He put his headphones down, ran onto the dance floor, and kept the party going! As a musician and music lover myself, it was hard to trust someone else with the evening’s setlist, but we are so glad we did. He was super keyed into the dance floor, and read the crowd like an expert, always knowing exactly what song to serve up. We danced our aes off and could not have had a better evening. We even rented one of his lighting packages, which he set up to perfection. Herbert, thank you for helping us with our live performances, and for giving us such an incredibly memorable night!!

They played all the songs we wanted at the perfect times and filled the time in between with even more perfect song selections. Julian was so easy to work with and made the day go by smoothly for our other vendors, he even worked with our officiant to do transitional music during the ceremony. He worked so hard with us trying to get a band to fit with the space we had, but ultimately we went with the duet DJ option which is a very cool alternative that we were so happy was available. Julian has a great voice and killed it on the guitar. Unfortunately Christienne was sick on our wedding day but the fill in female vocalist was amazing too. I would HIGHLY recommend Brick Park for any type of event and we will be following them around the Boston area for live music in the future.

I met Jamie while he was DJing at a venue in Manhattan many moons ago. I was immediately pleased with the music he chose and went up to the booth and we got to talking about music and art. He was so easy going and truly in tune with the beat of the venue. We kept in touch and I then went to several more of his venues where he was DJing with friends and also with my (now) husband. When we decided to get married and keep it really small our one must-have was excellent music because we love dancing but are not fans of standard wedding DJ music. I immediately contacted Jamie and on short notice he was able to schedule a meeting with us to discuss our needs. Jamie came prepared with a list of questions and helped us work through the different moods we wanted to set and organized the music choices. We gave him some ideas and he did the legwork of deciding what specific songs would lead into each of the unique parts of a wedding and reception (dancing, eating, more dancing, only the young people dancing, etc.). To this day my husband and I talk about how much fun we had at our wedding and how we were really able to make every piece of it ours - right down to the music that was not pulled off some Billboard chart but that truly reflected us and the people in our lives. In fact Jamie was so great the venue asked if he would be willing to come back and DJ some of their future events :)

Believe it our not music was the MOST important thing to me as a bride. Ive had the privilege of working with Atmosphere Productions for many years now as I am a wedding photographer myself. One thing I always knew was, when I’d be working with Sam as a vendor, it would be a stress-free, well coordinated and energetic wedding. His pure love for music is infectious and even on the days when I was exhausted from working for 12 hours, you’d always catch me out on the dance floor if he was the dj. So when I choose him for my own wedding, it felt like a no-brainer. One thing I made clear up front is that a lot of our music might not be typical and that we wanted the music to literally be the soundtrack to the day through our eyes. Music has been a BIG part of our relationship and we wanted that to be part of our wedding just as much. When I worried that my choices in music might be too obscure or not even available- Sam assured me he had everything we choose and more. He understood the “feeling,” we wanted and simply took our suggestions and filled the rest with his picks which we loved since he is the expert! The preparation prior to the wedding was what surprised me the most. Being a wedding photographer I had NO idea what was involved for the DJ. This was very eye opening and Sam took the time to sporadically check in, throughly go through each step of the day and easily accommodated our not-so-traditional families. He asked questions and mapped things out so that by the time the day came I KNEW Sam had everything he needed and even when a couple things changed that day he took care of it like a rockstar. All the care, time and energy Sam provided for our day made him the best choice and his rates match his quality ten times over. Thank you so much Sam for sharing your talent with us and being part of the best day of our lives!

From pre wedding meetings deciding what were going to do and when, guiding you on the best lay out to fit your crowd size and venue their isn’t much I cant help with.

I can’t say I wasn’t nervous, as they didn’t have any reviews posted yet, but Jon was very helpful in addressing all our concerns and they kept our guests entertained and dancing all night long! They learned our first dance song- Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves and put their own flair to it, which we loved. They are such a fun mix of rock, jazz, bluegrass, country and played a good mix of songs for all ages. I would also recommend listening to some of their original songs and including them in your day, my husband and I were so happy we did. :) I want to have another wedding just so we can have them play again!

With 13 years in business and four Top 3 Best of Hartford Wedding DJ Awards, this well rounded DJ has solidified her spot as a Top Wedding Professional in CT. She is ready collaborate and make your already special event even more epic!

Stephanie, aka DJ Stardust, DJed our wedding in June of 2023. Neither of us are huge music people, so we were looking for a DJ who could run with minimal direction, and Stephanie was exactly that! She was very organized and communicative leading up to the wedding day. She had a great form that we filled out with all the details you could possibly imagine in terms of songs we wanted/didn’t want/when, and she executed exactly as we expected. Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were in three different rooms/spaces, and Stephanie seamlessly moved through providing appropriate music (and emceeing) at each. The one special thing we asked her to do was coordinate a “photo dash” (where everyone sitting at each table comes up to the dance floor for a group photo within the time limit of one song), and she did it very well. She accidentally skipped a table at one point, but rather than making a big deal about it, she joked about it and everyone laughed. The photo dash was one of the most talked-about things after our wedding. Something unique that our venue offered was the chance for DJs to plug into a high-end speaker system they had installed for a small fee. We asked Stephanie to do this, and at first she was hesitant because she didn’t want to be using equipment she wasn’t familiar with day-of (understandably!). Of her own volition, she reached out to our venue and coordinated a time where she could go see the equipment and practice setting up to make sure it would work with her equipment and just generally feel it out. We really appreciated her going above and beyond in this way, and the day of the wedding went off with no issues at all.

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.

Butch was simply phenomenal! He was able to keep our small wedding so high energy it felt like we had a room full of a hundred people! He was so flexible with us as we had so many changes throughout the planning process. He was willing to work with us regardless of what our contract stated, he just wanted us to have the best wedding we could. He was so helpful in planning meetings and his tool was easy and fun for us to use!

We booked THC back in March 2020 before the shutdown and they were so flexible and kind as we went through various reschedulings of our wedding. They are so well-prepared and thoughtful, really considerate of what you want and what you and your spouse imagine your wedding to be, and very clear on what they need from you. As it got closer to our date, Dan and Jesse were super communicative and when we ran into some issues with COVID causing our guest numbers to dwindle, they were our own little hype team, telling us that they'd be sure we had a good time even with fewer guests. I'm not sure I ever told them how much it meant to me to have their reassurances during that time. I have known from the moment I got engaged that I wanted a live band at my wedding and truly, we could not have found a better one. My parents were skeptical of a large live band, but when my husband and I went to that first THC showcase, we knew from that moment that they were the band for us. We promised our family and friends a good time, and we followed through. Our guests were astonished, literally jaws dropping all over the place as the band got going. My parents' faces were incredible to behold and my sometimes-curmudgeonly dad was grinning from ear-to-ear all night and kept telling me for days after how great THC was. I got so many comments about the musicianship, the energy, and how incredibly fun they were. Multiple people told me it felt like we were at a concert - which it totally did! They got everyone engaged in the dancing, playing music that guests of all ages could enjoy, and engaged with everyone down on the dance floor and really made it feel like a million people were there, which was important to me. I could really ramble on forever at how incredible they were, but I'll just sum it up to say that they were the life of the party and I am so thankful. I'll also add that we had a solo guitar for the ceremony and solo piano for the cocktail hour and that was just absolutely perfect. Each individual member of the band is extraordinarily talented, so whatever combination of musicians you go with will be incredible. I cannot recommend The Hook Club enough - I wish I could give ten stars. Every moment of working with them was a pleasure and I feel so lucky. Thank you a million times over!

Attentive, polite, professional, charismatic, fun and knows how to set the mood and get the crowd going.

Gerry recently was the DJ for our wedding. We planned out everything in 2 months and I wasn't sure that when we started, if this event I was planning was even going to resemble a wedding. I had an extremely tight budget and was planning a September wedding in Vermont...my hopes and expectations were not high. Luckily early on in the process I stumbled onto Gerry on Zola and reached out thinking it was too good to be true. He was quick to respond to the initial inquiry and we set up a time to chat on the phone about possibilities. We ended up spending over an hour on the phone that night just talking about how it didn't matter that I was having such a small event-the sky was the limit. Go ahead and have a single conversation with him and his passion will sell itself. He makes it all look almost too easy. Not only was he extremely flexible-he traveled well out of his way to make this happen for us because without him, we would not have had a DJ for our wedding. The day of the wedding, he kept everything running like a well oiled machine. He kept our guests involved, handled our rowdier guests with grace and even let one of my 4 year olds sing everyone a song during dinner which made him feel so special. Everyone loved Gerry and I promise you will too. Do yourself a favor and book Your Way DJ for your next special event-you wont get a chance to regret it.

Kelton provided an extensive list of potential songs to play in a shared Google Document with columns for “play” and “do not play” which was great. Also, I was impressed that he attended the walk through of the Whittemore House a month prior to the wedding, asking pertinent questions of the Whittemore staff about the placement of various things and how best to provide the sound amplification that would be needed. He provided wireless mics which worked really well for the toasts. Kelton did a great job as the master of ceremony and his mix of the selected music was fun and fabulous. He had the crowd dancing, rocking to the music. Many of the older folks told me that they hadn’t danced in years but were having lots of fun doing so then. Having him on our wedding team instilled so much confidence in me, my daughter and new son-in-law, who is an amateur DJ.

He also has a great setup & treats your wedding day like it was his own. If you don’t hire this man for your wedding day you’re friggin’ crazy! He’s the best in the business!

Words can’t express how much we loved working with Ana & Jimmy and the entire Amp DJ Band Hybrid. My husband really wanted a band while I really wanted a DJ, Amp DJ band was the perfect mix. We found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing. If you’re debating getting a band for your wedding because your heart is set on a DJ, seriously look no further than Amp DJ Band hybrid. You will not be disappointed. I want to have another event just to work with them again!
