Stop your search right here, Golden Bell is what you're looking for. Marlon and the team absolutely brought the vibes and all of our guests won't stop talking about them. Before our wedding day, Marlon was super attentive, responsive, and overall fun to work with. He really went out of his way to ensure our entire day went exactly as we envisioned. The energy of the live band combined with the well-mixed playlist certainly kept people entertained the whole party, and the dance floor stayed packed the entire night. We can not think of one thing that Golden Bell could have done better. They have our highest recommendation.

Spencer was incredibly professional, organized, and created a super fun dance party for our wedding! We’ve had guests asking for the playlist from our wedding because it was so on point and we owe it all to Spencer. Spencer also handled all of the lighting (indoor and outdoor) at our Brazilian Room wedding, it looked fantastic and he accommodated our special requests.

I’m DJ Buddy Holly – Performed by David Charles Kramer, a professional DJ, guitarist, and vocalist based in Northern California. I provide elegant sound, lighting, and entertainment for weddings, receptions, and private events. Music has been my life since childhood — from playing guitar and singing live to mixing dance-floor favorites that keep guests celebrating all night long. I work closely with every couple to plan playlists, announcements, and timing that reflect their personality and vision. Whether it’s a romantic ceremony, a smooth dinner set, or an epic party finale, I bring professional sound and the right energy for every moment.

We’re more of a low-key couple and didn’t want a “club vibe,” but DJ Buddy Holly nailed it. He started with elegant classical guitar during dinner, then gradually turned the energy up once guests were ready to dance. He mixed our playlist with his own selections, and it was exactly the right balance of style and fun. Super professional setup, great sound quality, and friendly communication from start to finish. Every guest told us the music was one of their favorite parts of the wedding. Absolutely worth every penny.

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.

Timmy G and his team made everything seamless and every guest ended up on the dance floor. They took song requests, learned our first dance songs, and really engaged with the crowd to keep the energy up. Timmy G absolutely killed it, and we would hire them again 1000 times over. We can't recommend them enough - they made our wedding extremely special and unique, and our guests are still raving about them.

Anthony is amazing - if you are looking for someone with a wealth of experience, who you can trust to make the right decisions without you needing to think about everything, he's your guy. Planning a wedding is new, scary, sometimes a little overwhelming. Anthony was a calming presence in the lead up, and talked me through a lot of what I didn't know. He crushed it on the day of. Helped us solve some last minute change ups and made it look easy. 10/10 without a doubt. If I ever have a DJ shaped hole in an event I'm planning, I'm reaching out to DJ Stallion. Thanks for being a part of the coolest wedding.
