LPE was FABULOUS at our end of April wedding! My guests still talk about how fun our wedding was because of the amazing live music. All three guys that performed were so KIND, FUN, and PROFESSIONAL! They played a variety of genres and even did a song or two in Spanish. We were so impressed. We requested a sweetheart dance for just my new husband and I, and LPE sang and played it perfectly - it was so special!

Ken was an absolute rockstar from start to finish. He met with us multiple times before the big day to make sure every detail was perfect, from the ceremony to the final song of the night. He was extremely detail oriented, coordinating seamlessly with our other vendors and making sure everything ran smoothly. As an MC, he went above and beyond to keep the day flowing perfectly and the energy high all night. What really stood out was how much Ken truly cared about us as a couple. He was genuinely excited for our wedding and helped us with several personal add-ons that made the day feel uniquely ours. His setup is truly next-level: a one-of-a-kind DJ booth with a big screen for day-of photos, custom music videos synced to his mixes, and even CO2 guns that took the dance floor to the next level. He also suggested adding walk-up songs for our wedding party’s speeches, which was a fun idea and a total hit with our guests. We got so many compliments afterwards, and everyone wanted his card! All in all, Ken is an amazing MC, an excellent DJ, and just an awesome person to work with. He kept the dance floor packed all night and made our wedding unforgettable. Highly recommend!!!

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

Funktastic Productions Llc. was an absolute hit at our wedding! From the very first interaction, their communication was quick, friendly, and super detailed - they clearly cared about making our day perfect. And that's exactly what they delivered. I chose to have live piano and violin at my ceremony and they sounded beautiful together. They played every song I requested with depth and precision- even the fairly new music (I requested Birds of a Feather for the recessional, and they NAILED it!) They provided mics to the musicians and the officiant stand, which ended up being a lifesaver for us. The DJ and violinist were both fun and talented, keeping the dance floor packed all night long. DJ Servaun in particular did an amazing job matching the vibes, emceeing, and balancing in the moment song requests with a killer playlist. Get the DJ with Musician accompaniment package!! The electric violin player lit up the dance floor & guests LOVED it! Quote: “Best wedding I’ve ever been to! I’ve never been to a wedding where ‘Not Like Us’ got a violin accompaniment”. I also used Funktastic for our photobooth service and it was one of the most popular parts of the wedding. People lined up at one point to take pics- and I was thrilled with the quality of the designs and service. Funktastic Productions provided incredible value and high quality entertainment that made our wedding celebration truly unforgettable. We can't recommend them enough!

I don’t know where to start with Dillon and Electric Sugar…. They were incredible. Plain and simple. I worked with Dillon leading up to wedding weekend and he was kind, prompt, professional, and fun. We worked together to create a set list that was perfect for our taste in music. Dillon also played guitar at our ceremony and it was beautiful. He did a combo of guitar and prerecorded music per our request and it was perfect. He brought all the equipment needed for our officiant to have a microphone as well. The Electric Sugar band as a whole played for our reception. We had them for 3 hours and the dance floor was packed for 3 hours. They were so much fun and SO talented!!!

We had the pleasure of having Dj Azul at our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, Dj Azul was incredibly professional and attentive to our music preferences. He took the time to understand our tastes and crafted a playlist that kept the dance floor packed all night long. The transitions between songs were seamless, and DJ Azul knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the energy high. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the music, and many of them mentioned that it was one of the best wedding receptions they had ever attended.
