Summit Events was the perfect choice for our wedding entertainment! Having a fun dance floor and awesome music has been something that I have dreamed about forever. I was nervous to find the right fit and was so relieved to have found Summit Events. From the beginning, we ended up working with the DJ who would perform the night of. Chris Funkhouser (who seriously brought the funk!) was amazing to work with! During our consultations he was able to answer all our questions and concerns. He was able to put his swing on things from his experience to help provide the right vibes we were looking for. We pretty much already knew all the songs that we wanted to play so the program they used was perfect! It was detailed in the timing of the night, how long or short to play songs and any other special requests we wanted to have. On the night of the wedding, Chris was a blast -energetic, observant, and focused on keeping the dance floor alive all night long. He even joined us out there, helping to keep the party going strong! He was able to use his best judgement in placing some of the lighting and monogram details we chose which turned out great! We highly recommend Summit Events to any couple looking for top-notch entertainment for their wedding!

Rick Pfamatter from Black Tie Entertainment is definitely one of the best DJ’s in the business. On top of his music and M/C expertise, Rick also maintained stellar and timely communication throughout our wedding planning process. He met with us on two separate occasions to discuss timelines and finalize details. He also took the time to reach out to everyone who was speaking at our wedding to make sure they were comfortable and prepared. Something I loved that Rick did was that he had us select a first song to get the dance floor started and a last song to close it out. This was so awesome, because Rick knew how important it was for us to keep a lively dance floor at our wedding. And I can confidently say that my husband and I barely left the dance floor all night! Rick is absolutely amazing, and you will not regret having him DJ your wedding!

I am a professional wedding coordinator turned queer bride and I was worried about finding a good DJ for our wedding. Many wedding DJs give me second hand embarrassment and create a cringey homecoming-y vibe. Also, we had a guest count of just 47 so we were worried about finding a DJ who could get the dance floor moving with such a small group. Frank was everything we were looking for and more!!! Frank absolutely BLEW US AWAY with his professionalism, talent, and personality! In meetings he was attentive, explained everything in detail, and really worked to get to know us as a couple instead of just a cookie cutter one size fits most format. QUEER COUPLES THIS IS YOUR DJ!!! As a queer couple, we were in search of vendors who would make us feel safe and welcome through the whole process. We absolutely found that in Frank! He was open and understanding of pronouns, identities, and family dynamics. He truly cared and listened to us about each and every aspect! We felt truly celebrated, safe, and welcome! On the big day everyone was telling us how well they could hear everything during the ceremony (it was outside and windy) and we gave alllllll the credit to Frank’s high quality equipment and skill. My spouse and I kept talking about how good of an announcer he was and how well spoken he was. Zero cringing on my end (which is HUGE for me)! His lighting and set up was professional and elegant. It didn’t take away from the rest of the decor while still lighting up on the dance floor beautifully and made for the perfect dancing atmosphere! Once it was time for dancing he kept the party going until the last song even with our small guest count! We had a blast and Frank played a MASSIVE role in that! He worked seamlessly with our planner and designer, Mia, with Little Acorns Events who recommended him! Our timeline, experience, and vibe was perfect thanks to their collaboration!!! We couldn’t possibly recommend Frank with PTEG enough! Trust me he will be the highlight of your event!

Nearly every guest was on the dance floor at one point during the night, and they truly kept the party going. My new father-in-law was, and is still, talking about how amazing the band was. They completely brought the reception to life. Leading up to the wedding, the band leader, Nate, was incredibly communicative and easy to work with, which made the planning process smooth and stress-free. On the day of the wedding, they were phenomenal across the board. The piano music during our ceremony was beautiful and set the perfect tone, and they did an excellent job MC-ing the reception. One of our favorite moments was how engaged the female singer was with the crowd. She brought so much fun energy and made a point to involve many of the kids and teenagers throughout the night, which was such a hit and made everyone feel included. It added an extra layer of joy and made the celebration even more memorable. Working with Sam Hill Entertainment was a pleasure and they make the process of booking a great band for your wedding very straightforward and smooth!

I can't praise Marylands DJ enough! The team that worked with me, Taylor, DJ Steve, and DJ Scott were wonderful. Steve even condensed a song that I loved but felt was too long for a first dance down into a shorter version and now that's the only version I listen to. I told the team I wanted the vibe to feel like my favorite college bar and Scott, who dj'd our wedding in November 2023, was awesome! He kept the dance floor full until the very last minute!

We had a great experience with King Studio and our DJ, Cody. During the planning process Nathan was very responsive when I had questions, our pre wedding meeting was very good as well. During the wedding Cody was great and everything went flawlessly. He did a great job making sure everyone was able to hear during the ceremony (ontop of a mountain). Cody also did a great job at the reception, even though we had a lot of older guests, everyone was on the dance floor at some point. I would definitely recommend working with King Studio.

DJ Seth Casana 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Locust Dale, VA

Seth Casana is a wedding DJ, musician, and entertainment consultant based in Fredericksburg, Virginia. He enjoys throwing a good party and has had plenty of opportunities to do so with his creative projects including Elby Brass, Whurk Magazine, Art Attack Project, and Spaghettifest. He is a JMU alum and spent several years in the Marching Royal Dukes and as a DJ at WXJM 88.7 FM. His decades of experience in a wide range of performance environments allow him to consistently deliver excellence as a wedding DJ.

Where do I even begin?! Seth was absolutely incredible and played such a huge part in making our wedding the best night of our lives. From the very beginning, he was a consummate professional, organized, and so easy to work with. He stayed in touch throughout the planning process, sent helpful spreadsheets, and made creating our perfect wedding playlist completely stress-free. The energy he brought to our reception was unmatched. Our dance floor was packed all night long, and guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Adding Seth's disco light package was one of the best decisions we made, it completely transformed the space and created the most magical atmosphere. What meant the most to us was how invested he was in making our day special. Toward the end of the night, he even let my husband jump into the DJ booth, which became one of our favorite memories. Seth, thank you for helping create memories we'll cherish forever. We are beyond grateful for everything you did. If you're considering booking him, do it…you will not regret it!

We were huge fans of Dueling Pianos as we had seen them several different places throughout the country. We just didn’t know how it would translate into wedding entertainment. From the first inquiry, Jason responded almost immediately and was very thorough and informative in his communication. We set up a phone call about a week later and we just knew it was going to be the right fit! The show was amazing and the entertainers really wowed the crowd. They were funny, personable and of course talented. We would highly recommend The Copper Piano to anyone considering live music!!
