We had DJ AJ for our wedding in the keys and we couldn’t have been happier with his services! He was professional, reliable, and kept our dance floor alive all night. He set up early, was very easy to communicate with, and had great lighting for the dance floor as well. He took all of our guests into consideration, and his music perfectly fit every age group. We loved his energy and we got so many compliments from guests! He not only got to know our guests, but us as a couple and made sure he understood what we wanted on our wedding day.

We had DJ Zach Kerns at our wedding and he was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The dance floor was packed all night and we got tons of compliments on him!!! I am a bit of a self proclaimed ‘music snob’ and I had a LOT on my ‘do not play’ list and a LOT of silly details about how I wanted music to be played lol!!! My list of music requests was obnoxiously long and could probably have filled up like 5 whole weddings xD Zach was literally so kind, understanding, patient with me and took all of my insane requests into consideration - and was able to navigate my excel sheet of like 18384746627281 songs with ease!!! I couldn’t have imagined the night going any better than it did. He did a perfect job.

Shut Down Productions

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Islamorada, FL

After a long career DJing clubs, radio, and more I can honestly say nothing is more rewarding than weddings. Just knowing that my music bonds families and helps them enjoy themselves on their most important day is a feeling that can't be replicated at any other gig. When I began getting requested for weddings, I saw a void for club DJs in the industry, so I picked the best and started Shut Down Productions. In addition to our DJ & MC services, we have grown to be a one stop shop by also offering photo booths, lighting, special effects and more to make your celebration even better.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want a party that your guests will talk about for years to come you’ll choose Shut Down Productions, and more specifically Burton Williams, as your DJ and entertainment company. Burton was the most timely, respectful, professional, prepared, and overall electric DJ we had the absolute pleasure of working with for our wedding day. As we looked for a DJ it was top of mind to have someone who felt comfortable playing all genres of music. Burton seamlessly blended R&B, Hip-hop, Pop, Country, Salsa, Merengue, Bachata… I mean you name it he played it. He kept our guests off their feet the entire night! We also rented a photo booth through him that was an absolute hit with our guests. They provided all the props, and it captured the best high-quality photos. I could not be happier with our decision to work with SDP and Burton, they are without a doubt worth every penny and more! Trust the professionals and they will not disappoint! Thank you to Burton and the team for a night we will never forget!

From the moment the music started, everything flowed seamlessly—from the ceremony to the last dance. Their attention to detail was outstanding. The “dancing on clouds” effect during our first dance created such a dreamy, romantic atmosphere—it felt like a real-life fairytale. And the fire dancers? Absolute showstoppers! It was such a unique, high-energy touch that had all our guests raving. The DJ kept the energy up all night, reading the crowd perfectly and keeping everyone on the dance floor. Not only were they professional and organized, but they also clearly cared about making every moment special. If you’re getting married in the Keys (or anywhere, really), Modern Era Weddings is a no-brainer. They went above and beyond to give us the wedding celebration of our dreams!

On the day of our wedding, his high-energy performance as the best host we could have asked for kept our guests dancing all night long - we only left the dance floor for a bathroom break or a drink refill.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a fantastic experience with Second Song and our DJ Jeff Collins for our September 14th wedding. Everyone on the Second Song team (and Rob in particular) was very responsive and communicative. The virtual meeting with DJ Jeff went smoothly, and the shared Google Doc that Second Song provided to track the event details was intuitive and easy to use. Rob and his team helped us make custom cuts of our ceremony music at no additional cost. We also booked our uplights through their team, and they were beautiful. Not only could you select the color, but the lights could also be programmed to cycle through colors for more of a party vibe. I could not recommend DJ Jeff Collins more highly. He was professional and on time, and most importantly, had incredible energy. He hit all of our requests for the evening, both for the dinner portion of the night and the dance party afterwards. He worked seamlessly with our planner and made all of the right announcements at the right time, and a large part of the evening's success was due to his energy and enthusiasm. Thank you Second Song for helping us make our wedding dreams come true! If you are on the market for a wedding DJ (or a DJ for any large event), look no further!

Bay Kings Band

  • Serves Islamorada, FL

We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Bay Kings are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Our talented and professional musicians have performed regularly with touring and recording artists including Shakira, Ricky Martin, Paul Anka, Gloria Estefan, D'Angelo and Pitbull, as well as working and touring with numerous Broadway shows.

We first saw the Bay Kings Band perform at a wedding in Nov. 2022, and it was then that we knew we wanted a live band to play at our reception when we got married. When we started wedding planning in 2025, we decided to check out the Bay Kings Band at one of their showcases. Billy, the producer, approached us early on in the evening and started getting to know us. After watching them perform that night, we decided to look no further. Billy was our primary point of contact and was incredibly easy to work with. He was quick to respond whenever we reached out and made the planning process easy. He also made a concerted effort to get to know us and our personal music tastes in the months leading up to the wedding. During our final planning call about 2 weeks before the wedding, we went over our must play list, do not play list, and the songs we wanted played during various events (grand entrance, last song, etc.). We’ll admit that we presented Billy with several challenges, in that many of our do not plays were songs they probably play all the time at weddings (mostly line dances, Bruno Mars, Single Ladies, etc). We also were not going to have any formal dances, and we had no opinions on what we wanted played during the other events that night. Billy did a great job at talking us through options as well as getting a feel for what our guests might enjoy. On the night of our wedding, Billy and the Bay Kings Band absolutely slayed it. We had so many guests come up to us that night raving about how great the vibes were thanks to the band’s energy, set list choices, and each person’s talent. The dance floor was packed full the entire night, without a single line dance played. It also helped that they played several numbers from the Shrek and Shrek 2 soundtracks, which we assured Billy previously would go over VERY well with our crowd. They also threw in a few little surprises just for us that made our night all the more special. In addition to being wildly talented, each person from the band we spoke to was incredibly kind and gracious. We absolutely loved each and every member of the band present that night and will be forever grateful for all they did to make our wedding the best night of our lives. Do it. Hire them. You will not regret it. And be sure to include a saxophonist!

Just The Melody Band was an absolute delight to work with for our wedding day. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication was smooth, easy, genuine and heartfelt. On the day of, they were passionate, energetic and clearly experienced in generating an unforgettable party atmosphere. From the ceremony to the reception, not a single detail was missed - they kept our crowd entertained while also moving them to tears during our emotional ceremony. They embraced our whacky timeline and kept the passion and energy up the entire time, making everyone want to keep the party going until the bitter end. The ability to hire a team with a DJ and an incredible band in one made choosing Just The Melody a no brainer. We could not have asked for a better band to make our special day so memorable.
