Roland was absolutely amazing as our wedding DJ! From start to finish, he exceeded every expectation we had. One of the most important things to us was having someone who could read the room and know exactly when to change the song and Roland nailed it! He picked up on the energy of the party perfectly and kept the dance floor alive all night. What really stood out is that he went above and beyond just the DJ role. Not only was he professional, kind, and such a positive presence on our big day, but he also stepped in to help with photography and little things that most DJs would never think to do. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great he was. We had talked about weaving in a little EDM during the reception, and he executed that flawlessly, it added the exact vibe we wanted without missing a beat. Roland truly gave us everything we hoped for in a DJ and so much more. I would recommend him to anyone looking for not just a DJ, but a supportive, upbeat professional who genuinely cares about making your wedding unforgettable!

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

AMAZING! Derek was so incredibly flexible and kind as we planned our wedding during COVID and changed our minds about things like the wind. He is understanding, thoughtful, and has done so many weddings, he brings a ton of experience to the table. When we got to our venue for the rehearsal, the staff didn't even know what to do about the sound feedback or how to fix it on their systems, Derek stepped in politely and made the needed adjustments to make everything sound great. He also crushed our reception! It was a small, outdoor gathering, but he made sure everything sounded and went smoothly. He is an incredible, fun and talented guy---& he is busy so you better snag him fast!

The talent of this group of people is beyond anything you will see anywhere in the world! I cannot say that enough times! I originally saw them playing while I was on a trip a few months before my wedding and just decided right then I needed them to be a part of the experience because they were so amazingly good. They have a diverse selection of music to work with and will cater to whatever you have envisioned for your event. I sing in a band where I live and they allowed me to get up and sing with them, which was also a fun part of the experience. I feel like it’s hard to come across people as easy to work with, professional, and absolutely amazing but these folks checked all the boxes and more!

Nashville Wedding Guitarist 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • Solo performer
  • Serves Old Hickory, TN

Simple. Elegant. Beautiful. If this is what you envision for your wedding, classical guitar may be exactly what you're looking for. Guitarist Rob Higginbotham brings a blend of virtuosic classical guitar repertoire and contemporary fingerstyle guitar to add that special touch to any occasion. He has been featured on NPR, performed with the Nashville Symphony and played over 60 weddings last year. With over 25 years of playing experience, you can be assured of a flawless performance and a treasured memory.

We hired Rob to play music before and during our outdoor wedding ceremony. We hired him as a soloist and he played beautiful classical guitar that was perfect for the event. I am aware that he also can provide duos or larger ensembles as needed. He also can provide jazzy reception music after the wedding. Nashville certainly has a lot of guitar players but classical guitar players with a robust repertoire can be hard to find.

Working with Dynamic Excitement was an absolute pleasure. Thomas had the dance floor full all night, was able to crowd read very well and provided them with all the hits they didn't know they needed. He was very easy to work with, very professional, thorough with his questionnaire that is provided to his clients, all of his wires were tied up and out of everyones way (something you don't know is important but it sure does make a difference), and was able to accommodate to a variety of age groups throughout the night. Dynamic Excitement also provided my client with uplighting which created a romantic ambiance to the entire venue space- which also created a beautiful background for the detail shots of the venue. All in all, Dynamic Excitement is a DJ company I see myself recommending to all of my clients.

30Vice

  • Band or Ensemble

Soulful, stylish, energetic, and unique – these are just some of the words used by fans to describe 30Vice. A band consisting of a multi-national lineup of talented musicians, 30Vice combines its cultural influences to create a one-of-a-kind sound with a South Florida flare. 30Vice is not an “out for hire” group pieced together for events, nor does the band perform using pre-recorded audio tracks (similar to karaoke). Instead, the band you book is the band you get that performs 100% live, high-energy music. And 30Vice has also appeared and performed in the Hollywood feature film, “Pitch Perfect 3”

30 Vice was our wedding band for our August 2025 wedding and they were unbelievable! They had the dance floor full all night, and our guests were loving it. They played all the songs we wanted and they were all so talented. They even sent us an early version of our first dance that we could practice with. At the end of the night our guests were chanting "One more song, one more song!" Extremely memorable. They were worth every penny.

And everyone loves 80s music-EVERYONE! All my young cousins and guests had just as much fun as we all did jamming along to Bueller Band. Over ten years later, people still tell me our wedding was one of the best they’d ever been to in large part because of Bueller Band.

A respect of nostalgia with a modern twist, Nathan Belt & The Buckles’ pay homage to the classic twangy rock n’ roll you love. Influences of Merle Haggard-era country and Roy Orbison/Elvis Presley style vocals, this band’s sound is enjoyed by audiences both musically versed and new. Each have backed legendary artists such as Wanda Jackson, Billy Joe Shaver, Los Straitjackets, Chuck Mead (BR549), Garry Tallent (The E Street Band), Emmylou Harris and Billy Burnette to name a few. If you’re fortunate enough to experience their show live, you'll be met with an energetic set, a compelling desire to dance and their signature, sharp dressed style.

I have worked closely with Nathan for years at a venue in downtown Nashville (Acme Feed & Seed). During that time, he and his band have easily put on hundreds of shows with us. Aside from being one of the most respectful, professional, and quality musicians you could hope for, Nathan and his crew are wonderful people on the personal side, as well. They always show up early, stay late, and put their all into their shows, without fail. This kind of passion, dedication, and commitment to craft is unparalleled by any other artist I've ever worked with. Furthermore, their ability to cover a wide array of genres with a dynamic blend of covers and originals work well for any setting. You would be SEVERELY missing out if you don't book Nathan on any occassion requiring a need for live entertainment!

The harpist and violinist were absolutely incredible — truly one of the most magical parts of our entire wedding day. My husband and I were completely in awe, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and cinematic the music was. It felt like something straight out of a movie, especially with the stunning ambiance of our ceremony location. From the very beginning, the process of choosing music through the company’s website was seamless. There were so many amazing song options to pick from, and we were so happy with our final selections. Hearing them come to life — especially on violin and harp — was beyond words. The musicians played so eloquently and gracefully, and their talent was unmatched. The music added a romantic, emotional, and elegant touch that elevated everything to a whole new level. Communication with the company was excellent. They were quick to respond, always friendly and accommodating, and remained professional and patient — even when unexpected weather challenges came up on the day of the wedding. They were flexible, understanding, and worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly. The quality of the performance was truly a 10 out of 10. Guests were completely blown away, and many told us how unforgettable and moving the ceremony music was. The transitions between songs were smooth and perfectly timed. I would 100% recommend this company to any couple looking to add something special to their ceremony. They are incredibly talented, professional, punctual, and just a dream to work with. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our big day — they helped make it feel absolutely magical.

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.
