My husband and I used Direct Entertainment for our DJ and videographer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased!! The team was professional, great at communication, very kind and professional, and they helped make our day absolutely perfect! Jeff, our DJ kept the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT!! When the music had to stop at the end of the night, the dance floor was still completely full and no one wanted it to end. He did a great job announcing the events of the night, made sure that our ceremony music was perfect, and he stuck to our wedding playlist with the exception for a couple guest requests (which we were happy to allow). We were so happy and thankful to have Jeff there! Sie, our videographer also did a wonderful job! We have not yet received our video as our wedding was less than 2 weeks ago, but I already know it is going to be amazing. He was so great with communication, was prompt with his timing, and he even set up a second camera for guests to break away and give us well wishes for our marriage, which I'm so excited to watch back. He was very professional and wonderful to work with. We decided to add videography at the last minute because we thought we might regret not having it, and I am SO happy we asked Jim at Direct Entertainment if they had someone available for our day just a month before, and they did!! Jim, the coordinator at Direct Entertainment frequently checked in with us, asked us questions about ourselves, and genuinely made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He was great to work with leading up to being assigned our designated DJ and videographer, and even after, he checked in to make sure we were happy and that all of the planning was going well. Overall, we would 1000% recommend Direct Entertainment for any wedding entertainment needs! I know they also offer several other services that we did not utilize, and I'm sure they are wonderful as well! Photos courtesy of Lang at Wandering Wolf Photography.

The members of Azure Strings are highly skilled musicians whose competence is apparent at each performance.

Awarded Best of Zola
I hired Azure Strings after interviewing 5 or 6 other ensembles for my niece's wedding. From the initial correspondence and phone conversations all the way up to and including the day of the wedding they provided prompt, thoughtful, and helpful responses to all of my concerns. Mary, the first violinist, took care of the venue choice and acoustic requirements therein, making for a seamless integration into the wedding ceremony. Further, she graciously helped out with the music selection across several genres of music. (They even allowed me to accompany them on several songs on guitar as requested by the bride.) And then the day of the wedding--The music was several orders of magnitude beyond exceptional. Outstanding, first-class, extraordinary beyond my wildest hope. The whole timbre of the service was raised to a much higher level. It was perfect in every way. I am so thankful to Azure Strings for making a special day even more special.

Veteran-owned and at war with the outdated wedding DJ stigma. Our team is redefining what a wedding DJ should be. No clichés. No guesswork. Just a seamless, curated experience from “I do” to the encore song of the night.

With over 15 years in the wedding industry, we combine modern trends, proven planning tools, and creative storytelling to match your style and energy.

We cannot say enough good things about Edd! He DJ’d our wedding this past September and absolutely crushed it from start to finish. He also DJ’d my sister’s wedding, so we already knew we were in great hands—and he still exceeded our expectations. Edd truly understands electronic-style music and can mix seamlessly, which kept the dance floor packed all night long. The energy never dipped, the transitions were flawless, and the vibe was exactly what we wanted. On top of his talent, he has an amazing personality—professional, fun, and so easy to work with. He knows how to read the room and keep the party going without missing a beat. He’s DJ’ing my best friend’s wedding this coming June. We’d recommend Edd to anyone who wants a packed dance floor and a DJ who has exceptional talent and skill! —Ashley & David Hudoba

Silver & Strings Trio was the perfect choice for our wedding music. Their communication throughout the planning process was clear, prompt, and professional. The quality of their work was truly polished and personalized as they played a wonderful mix of timeless classics and elegant standards that set the perfect backdrop for our ceremony, cocktails, and dinner. Having worked with Silver & Strings Trio 32 years ago at my own wedding, I knew they would provide the same exceptional service and musical performance that I experienced all those years ago--so I booked them for my daughter's upcoming wedding in January! Their decades of experience as professional musicians means they can handle any situation with ease, and their passion for being part of special events like ours is evident in everything they do. I would highly recommend Silver & Strings Trio to any couple looking for a truly flawless musical experience on their wedding day.

TKO Entertainment has been a leader in professional DJ service throughout Northeast Ohio for over 25 years. With all that experience under our belts, we know what it takes to pack a dance floor and keep your guests entertained all night!

We recently had TKO DJ our wedding and I could not recommend Ted and his team more!! The night was flawless and he brought a very specific vision we had to life. I felt like we may have been a couple with some of the weirdest and most specific requests, and the TKO team delivered on everything FLAWLESSLY. I also really appreciated Ted calling to go over order and ideas of how to make things go more smoothly, as well as emailing asking for pronunciations of family names. They also totally nailed it on the uplighting- something I wouldn’t have thought would make a big difference, but made the entire room and the vibe so much more intimate and incredible. Also his price was beyond fair, especially in a world of wedding planning where so many things feel astronomical. I am so happy we were able to have TKO at our wedding. I also am so grateful they know Windows on the River (our venue) so well, as it made everything run so seamlessly.

We understand you want your event to be fun, yet elegant and classy – but most of all stress-free. We’re dedicated to putting on a fun, yet elegant show for you and your guests. We don’t make unbecoming jokes, perform cheesy acts or display tasteless advertisements.

Streamcle is a preferred partner of By Request. We provide Livestreaming, event photography and custom production at many of their weddings and events. One of the best things about By Request is that their Djs are in constant contact with all vendors throughout the day, and they keep the guests informed too so no one misses a moment. By Request is small enough to provide a one of a kind experience but large enough to be able to staff and furnish equipment to multiple locations and large events on any given day. Couples and hosts are treated to custom service so no two events are alike. Their inventory is modern, clean, well maintained and frequently upgraded. We look forward to future events together!

We found Bluewater Kings through the preferred vendor list at our venue , and we are so glad we did. They invited us to come hear them play at a live showcase, and we were immediately sold. We booked them that same night. One of the best parts of working with them was the planning process. Their online planning portal made it so easy to update our preferences and make adjustments in the months leading up to the wedding. Molly was incredibly helpful and always quick to respond to any questions we had, which made everything feel seamless and organized. We also used their “iPad DJ” option so we could customize our cocktail hour and dinner playlists, along with a few songs during the band’s breaks. It was the perfect balance of adding our own personal touches while still trusting them to play what they know keeps the energy up. The band itself was amazing. They were so talented, brought great energy, and kept the dance floor packed all night. They really paid attention to the vibe we wanted and delivered exactly that. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we would absolutely recommend them for your wedding.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.

I cannot even put in to words how thankful I am that we had Tyson as our DJ at our wedding!! Our day was absolutely perfect and a large part of that was due to Tyson’s organization, creativity and fun spirit. We have not stopped receiving messages asking who our DJ was and for his contact information because he was just THAT GOOD!!! The dance floor was so crowded and not a single guest left early because Tyson curated the most perfect party through music. He kindly listened to all of our silly requests for song choices and also was able to gauge the crowd for what music they enjoyed. There was not a single song played that the whole room wasn’t dancing to and I was afraid to leave the dance floor to get dessert or a drink for fear of missing out on whatever the next song was about to be. If you are even thinking about using Tyson to DJ your event, do not hesitate. It was the best decision we made!!
