Our guests have described our wedding as the best they have ever been to, and so much of that is thanks to Spenser. From start to finish, the music was absolutely perfect. The dance floor was packed all night, the transitions were seamless, and every song choice kept the energy high. Spenser read the crowd flawlessly and created an atmosphere that was fun, elegant, and unforgettable. The professionalism, communication, and attention to detail throughout the entire process made us feel completely at ease on our big day. In addition the uplifting brought an even more fun vibe and complimented our decor perfectly. We also got a Photo Booth that was a huge hit all night.

I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Style Points was incredible to work with and played a huge role in making our wedding night a massive success. Our guest list spanned multiple generations, so we really needed someone who knew how to read the room and keep everyone engaged. Matt understood this perfectly—he had the dance floor packed all night and blended the music seamlessly. Any concerns we had regarding song lengths or flow, he was already ahead of it. He uses a custom planning form that was incredibly thorough, which made it so easy for us to help structure our timeline and music preferences. It also didn't go unnoticed by our other vendors; they were all very complimentary of how well he managed the energy throughout the night. If you want a DJ who is organized, professional, and a true master at keeping the party going, look no further!

  • DJ

Sounds Buono is a boutique, modern DJ collective. Our company is based in the New England area, with a focus on unique weddings and events throughout the region. We’ve grown our outfit and are now comprised of a talented group of hand-selected artists, all special in their own right. We strive to surpass the typical DJ experience by combining vast musical knowledge, personality and style into one-of-a-kind yet inclusive performances. And you won’t find corny tunes, line-dancing or laser shows here (we’re sorry!) We want to offer something that’s a little different from the norm but still connects with you and all of your guests.

My husband and I were married on 5/10/2025 and it was the greatest day of our lives and a big part of that was thanks to Joe and the Hudson Horns. Joe is easy to work with and extremely accommodating. We threw varying music tastes at him and requested to have him mix in Croatian music for our family and they knocked it out of the park. Joe truly has a gift. There was a perfect blend of music to keep people of all ages on the dance floor and it’s not the typical wedding music you’re used to. It was so refreshing to have a variety of different music rather than the same thing you hear at every wedding. From the time the dance floor opened, there was not a single person in their seats the whole time. Joe and the horns helped keep the energy high and everyone dancing. It’s been a month and we are still hearing from all of our guests about how good the music selection was and how they couldn’t get enough of the horns. Look no further and book Joe for your event- you won’t regret it. Also, highly recommend, getting the 4 piece horns to work alongside Joe. Separately Joe is fantastic and the horns are fantastic but together it is an experience like non-other.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

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 are still getting compliments about the music at our wedding. DJ Graeme did a fabulous job at getting people dancing early and keeping them on the dance floor all night long. We've had so many people tell us "I wanted to get a drink but I couldn't leave the dance floor because good songs kept coming on!" He listened to what we wanted (and didn't want!), honored that, and was an absolute pleasure to work with.

DJ Dayglow DJed our wedding on 10/12/2024, and she was absolutely incredible!! The planning leading up to the big day was amazing, and Kara had a great way of incorporating all of our "must play" music while also making sure the vibe of the night was perfect at all times. There was a stark contrast between our slow dinnertime music and then our party dance music, which was EXACTLY what we envisioned. Everyone at our wedding agreed that it was the best music they'd ever seen at a wedding, and when I tell you the dance floor was full all night -- it is no exaggeration! On top of all of this, Kara is extremely kind and charismatic, and she did a wonderful job emceeing our reception. I couldn't recommend a greater DJ for your wedding (or any event) if I tried!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so happy we chose Jeff and Mystic River Entertainment for our wedding at the Delamar Mystic. We spoke with several DJs during our planning process, but what ultimately drew us to Mystic River Entertainment was how straightforward and transparent everything was. The packages and services were easy to understand, and as a local vendor, Jeff was incredibly familiar with the Mystic area. It felt like fate when we learned that he had actually been married on the same property before the hotel was built. Even though the Delamar Mystic was still a brand-new venue, Jeff was already familiar with the space, having worked one of the weddings during its first season. From the start, Jeff was a pleasure to work with. He was communicative, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping us create the wedding we envisioned. We were very particular about our music selections and had several unique requests, including surprise performances and custom audio files. Jeff was accommodating every step of the way. He provided thoughtful professional guidance when needed, but always respected our preferences and helped bring our vision to life. Beyond the music itself, Jeff was instrumental in helping us personalize the event. He displayed our custom logo on the DJ booth, played a photo montage we created during the reception, and worked closely with us to coordinate a surprise musical performance by our friends by providing additional microphones and arranging a practice session during cocktail hour. He also allowed us to use a custom design for our photo booth prints, which added another personal touch for our guests. On the wedding day, everything was fantastic. Jeff did an outstanding job as both our DJ and emcee. He kept the event flowing smoothly, made announcements at exactly the right times, and ensured guests always knew what was happening next. When we needed to make last-minute adjustments to the program, he adapted seamlessly and kept everything running without a hitch. We never had to worry about the timeline because he had everything under control. The music was one of the highlights of the evening. Our family and friends loved the playlist, and we were especially impressed by how well our song selections were mixed and transitioned throughout the night. Jeff has an excellent ability to read the room and keep the energy exactly where it needs to be. The dance floor stayed packed, and every part of the evening felt perfectly paced. We also received numerous compliments on the photo booth. There was a minor hiccup with the printer, but Jeff and his assistant responded immediately and handled the issue professionally, which speaks volumes about their commitment to their clients and their guests' experience. If you're looking for a DJ who is professional, organized, flexible, and genuinely cares about making your wedding day special, we highly recommend Jeff and Mystic River Entertainment.

Overall, we had a good experience with our DJ. He arrived on time, was professional throughout the evening, and kept our guests on the dance floor for most of the night. The music flowed well, and everyone seemed to have a great time. That said, I did spend a lot of time carefully selecting songs that were meaningful to us, and I was a little disappointed that many of those selections weren't played. Some of our requested songs were included, but I had hoped more of our playlist would be incorporated into the evening. The only other issue was that, just before our grand exit, he approached us to mention that he hadn't received enough food. We had paid for a vendor meal for him, so I wasn't sure what had happened, and it didn't feel like the best time to bring it up while we were in the middle of such a special moment. Despite those concerns, he was friendly, punctual, and our guests clearly enjoyed themselves. If having a lively dance floor is your top priority, he does a good job creating a fun atmosphere.

Eddie was easy to communicate with, and was there for us through the whole experience from beginning to end.

Joe and his team were incredible! All of our guests are STILL talking about how great Joe was - he picked perfect songs that were a hit with our crowd across generations and included some of our all time favorites as well. We gave him a few do not plays and just a couple must plays, but he handled the rest perfectly!! Fine Tune Entertainment has an easy to use planning website, where we were able to edit our timeline and song choices throughout the process - this helped keep everything super organized. Joe was excellent at keeping the schedule moving with speeches, photos and dancing. We also used Fine Tune Entertainment's sister company for the photo booth which was incredibly high quality and a major HIT with our guests. They had the option to get digital copies or take home a printed one! We added 10 up lights to our space as well and Joe perfectly managed color changes to enhance the party vibe. We highly recommend Joe & Fine Tune Entertainment to couples in the Boston/MA area because of the incredible music played, the calm demeanor and excellent communication throughout the process! Definitely add the photo booth if you can, it was so worth it :)

This was the second occasion for which I used A Better DJ & Photographer. as always, the staff was very communicative, professional and engaging from the pre-event introductions to the event day. Everything about this evening was intentional; from the menu to the music and Xavier and Aubry exceeded my expectations in capturing my vision. I believe a good DJ is one who is intuitive and can read an audience, and a good photographer is one who can capture moments without you being aware. Thank you Michael, Aubrey, and Xavier for making my moment memorable for me and my guests. I highly recommend A Better DJ & Photographer!

Jason was an amazing DJ and we would work with him again! He did the music for our wedding and the sound system for our ceremony. He was very organized, professional, skilled, and easygoing. He was poised and classy throughout the wedding, and was great at gauging the vibe/adjusting the music accordingly. He followed our recommendations exactly. Our guests were really impressed and so were we! We strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a classy, professional, but warm and kind DJ!
