Style Points DJs

5.0

Glastonbury, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Newport, RI

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

As a wedding photographer, I had the pleasure of working alongside Style Points DJs this summer, and it was such a fun experience! Not only did they keep the dance floor packed during the reception, but they also handle unique aspects of this particular wedding so professionally (ie: a violinist and an aerial hoop artist). Their playlist incorporated songs for all guests to enjoy, and the audio throughout the day, including the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception, was crystal clear. I would highly recommend Style Points DJs to any couple who is looking for an energetic, yet professional duo.

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Shane is truly a special DJ! He works to ensure that your wedding is your own unique experience. You can tell that Shane actually cares about making your day feel special, smooth, fun and exciting.His energy and positivity is unmatched, which makes him so great and easy to work with. From the first calls and meetings, where he gets to know what type of wedding and music you want, to executing a fun and fluid party on the day of, he’s attentive and understanding the whole way through. What’s so cool about Shane was how excited he is to be at your wedding. He had to work with a bridal party of 11 bridesmaids and groomsmen.. not only did he keep us all in order, he pumped us all up and it felt like he was part of the party. We ended up having him stay an extra hour the night of our wedding because we weren’t ready for the party to stop. He checks in on you throughout the night to make sure all the music you want is being played, and he made sure I approved of requests for artists he knew I didn't want played. Shane really takes care of his clients and makes sure you feel great about your party!!

Dj Graeme Ritchie

5.0

Providence, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

We hired Graeme as our wedding DJ for our big day, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made! In all seriousness, the best vibe curator we could have asked for. He was extremely easy to work with, is very experienced, organized, personable and makes everyone feel special. Most importantly, Graeme is fun! He realizes the importance of weddings, despite how many he's done - and he took extra care in making ours special, memorable and personalized. There is no doubt he knows what he's doing, and he makes sure everyone is happy and having a great time. Not only does he take care of absolutely everything - he goes FAR above and beyond. We had my now sister-in-law and her husband sing our first dance song (they traveled from out of town) and Graeme was able to arrange a guitar to make it extra special and perfect - convenience for everyone! I also didn't know what my first dance song would be with my dad, because my dad was adamant about surprising me and ended up creating a "mash-up" of special songs from my childhood, and was only able to do this because of Graeme and his willingness to go above and beyond (and the "mash-up" was under 2 minutes, which I am SURE Graeme also helped direct ;) ) - Our wedding day simply would not have been the same without him. If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding, look NO further. From before the ceremony to "shutting the place down" he managed it flawlessly every step of the way and we are so thankful for him. Weeks later we're still getting comments on how great our DJ was - I would recommend him over and over again if I could. Thank you Graeme!!

DJ Alex Brown Entertainment

4.9

Smithfield, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000

DJ Alex Brown has over a decade of experience providing dance floor filling DJ and MC services for weddings and events. He offers a full range of standard services for weddings such as uplighting, custom monogram, ceremony and cocktail music, and more.

Hiring Alex to be the DJ for our wedding was the easiest and best decision we made. My husband and I wanted to ensure everyone at all ages had fun while keeping the party going. Everyone at our wedding had an absolute blast and Alex is to thank for that. Alex is so incredibly easy to work with and made the planning process a breeze. He was always available and quickly responsive to texts, phone calls, and even face-times! He spent so much time going over every little detail of our wedding day to make it perfect - even with some picky requests that I had made! Alex even came to our rehearsal to make sure everything was going to run smoothly the day of. During our reception we fell a little behind on our timing for scheduled events (toasts, first dances, cake cutting, etc.) and Alex calmly informed me of what was going on and the best way to catch up on time. He was so flexible and very knowledgeable on how to make things work! We included his photo booth in our package and it was a total hit! Everyone loved it and some of our favorite photos from the night took place here. He and his assistant are professionals! I hands down recommend DJ Alex Brown to anyone for any event, not just weddings. We had the time of our lives and will hire Alex in a heartbeat for any events in our future. Thanks for helping make this night one of the best and most memorable! We love you!

Pocket Change was the perfect pick for my in-laws' 50th wedding anniversary party, and I'd highly recommend them for any wedding or big event requiring a band! Dave, the primary contact, is incredible and did a great job emceeing the event, speaking gracefully, carefully keeping the time to keep things on track, and accommodating just the vibe we hoped for with the music. They also learned a very special song especially for my in-laws. Dave and band provide the perfect balance of professionalism and fun. Whether you're looking for light jazz or an all out dance party, Pocket Change is the BEST! Don't hesitate, definitely book them. You won't be disappointed.
