“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.”

I'm a professional wedding DJ and musician with a PhD in Music Composition, and I specialize in telling each couple’s story through music. Whether your taste spans pop-punk and Bollywood, house music and country, or something completely different, I bring genres, generations, and cultures together to create a wedding that feels genuinely unique to you.

“DJ Stephen did our wedding in September 2025 and we couldn't recommend him enough! When looking for a wedding DJ we wanted someone who was queer friendly and had great taste in music and Stephen exceeded all expectations. Stephen was so friendly, professional, super easy to work with and really listened to our music vision and vibe that we wanted to create. He arrived early to set up the sound system for the ceremony and all of his equipment (mics, speakers, lights) worked great throughout the night. The music selection was fantastic and kept everyone dancing all night long. We appreciated that he didn't rely on the same overplayed wedding songs but mixed it up in line with our tastes. We absolutely would recommend DJ Stephen to all of our friends!”

“We hired Bunn DJ Company Virginia to DJ our 150-guest wedding. Frank was our DJ, and he did a wonderful job all day helping us to curate several different vibes for different parts of the evening. The online tools from Bunn DJ made curating and sharing a playlist of our favorite songs as well as what songs to use where (first dance, wedding party introductions, last dance, etc) a breeze as well as very user friendly. Frank was a great MC, and got 150 guests wrangled to several different rooms throughout the night between cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing (all in different parts of our venue)! He did a great job balancing songs for different age groups as well as when to let songs play out longer or mix into the next song more quickly if the crowd was not into it. He is a big reason our dance floor was packed all night long! We were very happy with Bunn DJ Company Virginia’s services and specifically Frank’s skill as a DJ. Also, if it is within your budget, get the club cannons. Firing those off on our dancefloor was pure electricity for the energy on the dancefloor!”

Only 6 weeks out, and he was free on our date *and* had played the venue before! Fast-tracked our consult meetings, worked with us on our timeline for our very short ceremony and reception and overall had great tips and tricks. There were one or two moments during the wedding that were maybe hiccups (including me kicking the plugs out!) but he rolled with it, we rolled with it.
