Awarded Best of Zola
The live musician team has been absolutely phenomenal to work with. They provide me and my clients with any type of musician requested — from ceremony to cocktail hour and beyond. Their response time is incredibly fast, and their knowledge of music and event flow is outstanding. Tara, who runs the team, is truly the best. She works extremely hard, can find any musician I need, and consistently responds in under five minutes. As an entertainer myself, having a reliable and organized music team is everything — and my clients absolutely love her musicians. They always arrive on time, are professional, and execute exactly what the bride and groom envision, flawlessly. I highly recommend Tara and her team to anyone looking for top-tier live musicians for their wedding or special event.

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. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

His music is amazing and he was so easy to work with. We spoke several times to make sure the music would be exactly what we wanted, and his band even learned some special songs we had requested. Everything was exactly how we wanted it to be, stress-free and fun live music!

Texas Best DJS 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves O'Donnell, TX

I am your Professional Wedding DJ and Entertainment Company. 'Professional' meaning someone who has expert and specialized knowledge in this field of practice, with a high-quality work ethic and moral obligation with and toward their client, who considers it a privilege to work with the client and help them achieve their vision of the perfect wedding and reception. If that's all I had to say to gain your confidence at this moment, I would stop right here. But most DJs have no idea what this profession is all about. Call me. Let's talk. And then you decide if I can be your DJ and Emcee!

From our first conversation with Texas Best DJs, we knew we were in good hands. The owner was organized and friendly, providing detailed forms that helped us plan every moment of our reception without missing anything. He worked with us to create a song list and event timeline that kept everything flowing smoothly, and he was always quick to respond when we had questions or wanted to add special touches like the surprise for our groom and moms. His experience with all types of weddings really showed—he knew exactly how to keep the energy right and make sure our important songs were played at the perfect times. The service was worth every penny, and we would absolutely hire him again for future events. Highly recommend Texas Best DJs to any couple looking for a DJ who actually cares about getting the details right.

DJ Phil is great at his job!! We hired him for our wedding reception, and he crushed it. His website is chock full of information, including his very fair prices, and additional recommendations. Our first meeting with him demonstrated that this guy loves music and is really a sound nerd at heart. The day of our wedding, he was professional and intuitive. His sound system provided great audio throughout the ceremony and reception, and his whole set up matched our black tie wedding. He did a great job of incorporating our requests, while also adding in guest requests from the vinyl bar (such a cool addition that we got so many compliments on!). He read the room and picked up the energy when needed and lowered the volume when asked. Overall, we are super happy we went with Phil. He met all our needs and elevated our party! Thank you, Phil!
