“We had a wonderful experience working with Bobby from The DJ Company. His communication throughout the planning process was always prompt, kind, and stress-free. On our big day, Bobby brought exceptional professionalism and talent that elevated the entire event. He seamlessly handled both the acoustic guitar ceremony music and DJ reception duties, fulfilling all our requested songs and keeping guests engaged. Bobby made things personal by playing guitar live for our ceremony, learning special songs just for us. During the reception he read the room perfectly, playing hits our diverse group of friends and family could all enjoy. We really appreciated Bobby's friendly demeanor and flexibility to make our wedding day unique to us as a couple. The quality and reliability of his services were fantastic, especially for the value. We wholeheartedly recommend The DJ Company for your important events!”

“My wife and I hired LuvDupDJs for our wedding in Baltimore in September 2026. Gemma and Morgan were excellent partners throughout the process. Their planning documents and prep calls made us feel very confident before the big day, and we were very fortunate to have DJ Ty assigned as our emcee! Ty was fabulous, getting all the details right and managing any of our changes of plans on the fly (we threw a few at him!) Our guests really loved his song selection— mixing in favorites across generations. He also did an excellent job of holding the line on our “do not play list” and was very diplomatic telling our friends that Mr. Brightside was a non-starter for the groom. More than anything, Ty did an excellent job of executing our vision for the evening— the mood, vibes, and special moments we wanted to hear and see for our guests. Highly recommend LuvDupDJs for weddings in the area!”

“Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have.

You don't want a robotic DJ barking into a mic, and you definitely don't want a copy-pasted playlist. You want a soundtrack with actual soul and flawless taste. That’s where we come in.

“Before planning anything else about our wedding we already knew that the most important thing was going to be making sure it had an incredible dance floor. We had been joking during planning that a wedding was the biggest party you’ll ever throw and we wanted everyone to remember having fun dancing the night away. Matt at Supersounds made sure that that dream came true. It is clear why Supersounds was on all of our vendors’ recommended lists; they are all incredibly professional, organized, responsive, and kind. After talking with Matt we knew he would be the perfect DJ for our wedding. It was clear he was both easy going but passionate about what he does. Throughout the planning process he was able to give us advice on ceremony logistics, music, and cut together our first dance song. He helped explain what his role usually was on the wedding day and made sure that it agreed with our vision. He did an excellent job mixing the ceremony and adjusting the volumes on the microphone on the fly so that all of the audience was able to hear throughout. We had a lot of music that we knew we wanted played at the reception and cocktail hour and Matt hit all of our must plays while mixing in some extra songs that the crowd loved. The dance floor was alive the entire party and he even surprised us by sneaking in an extra final song by our favorite artist. All of our friends have told us what a great time they had at our wedding and it was in no small part thanks to Matt and Supersounds! We would absolutely hire them again and recommend them to any of our friends!”

“Seductionz Soundz made my dream wedding come to life in the most beautiful and unforgettable way. From the moment we connected, Tiffany was phenomenal — her organization, calm presence, and dedication made me feel cared for every step of the way. She listened to my vision, reassured me when I had concerns, and made sure every detail was handled with love and precision. My wedding was in the garden at The Grand Marquis, outdoors during the day, and I dreamed of walking on clouds for my entrance. Because of the wind, I was told it might not be possible. But Tiffany, DJ Dave, and MC Kevin made it happen for me anyway. The moment I walked in surrounded by clouds was truly magical — like something out of a dream — and it is a memory I will cherish forever. DJ Dave and MC Kevin brought amazing energy, kept the flow perfect, and made sure every moment was seamless and full of joy. Even though it was a daytime wedding, the celebration felt full of life, excitement, and emotion. They didn’t just play music — they created an atmosphere. This team didn’t only provide entertainment — they created memories, moments, and emotions that will stay with me forever. They genuinely cared, and it showed. I would recommend Seductionz Soundz, Tiffany, DJ Dave, and MC Kevin to any bride who wants a team that delivers excellence with heart.”

“DJ Motiv was extraordinary. I was so impressed by his professionalism, communication, and willingness to make sure our night was perfect. I was skeptical at first with some reviews mentioning that the DJ’s weren’t playing the songs they chose. I immediately reached out and that was informed that it would not be an issue. ALL of our chosen music was played, with some song requests of guests (with bride’s approval, per DJ motiv - loved that). DJ Motiv checked in with us constantly, even to make sure our food was at our table, if we needed drinks, if the music was going well, and if there was anything he could do. He was going above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. I even threw in special requests during my wedding, including him stopping my parent dance half way (on purpose) as if the music turned off, to take the mic and give a short speech. He did it phenomenally. I had a game request, with him being the commentator and director of, and he took that role and ran with it. The wedding guests LOVED him. I have nothing negative to say about his services. Even the photobooth was done great! I also had a custom sign made, with our new last name, and it was perfect! Such a great item to be able keep, and you get a year warranty on it. Anyway, I highly recommend this DJ!! He MADE our wedding perfect. Everyone loved him.”

I provide professional sound, immersive dance-floor lighting, uplighting, and a photo booth guests love — so you can relax and fully enjoy an unforgettable night.

“Booking DJ Ore was one of the best calls we made for our wedding. From our first phone call to the last song at 1am, he was on top of everything — quick to respond, organized, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. We got married at a camp in the Catskills with the ceremony out in the woods, which meant some tricky logistics: separate sound for the ceremony in the trees, load-in with the venue staff, a timeline that kept shifting on him. Ore handled all of it and we never had to think about any of it. The music was unreal, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Our guests basically refused to leave it, and we honestly lost count of how many people came up to us throughout the night to say how good the music and the DJ were. The thing I'll always remember, though, is how he made space for my Tío to play. My Tío sang and played guitar, and Ore made sure he had everything he needed to do it right. He and Chris brought so much energy and just knew how to keep the room going. If you want a DJ who's professional, easy to talk to, and cares about your day, book him. Thank you for everything, Ore — you gave us a night we won't forget. Cannot recommend enough.”

Even though we honestly didn't give them much direction for timing, they just nailed it! And then the party! Our family and friends love to dance, and the band kept the energy high all night long. They even learned a couple of extra songs for us that sounded amazing. Their talent is honestly unreal.

His online forum was easy to navigate and use. We loved the uplighting and the audio guestbook (phone)!!

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

“From start to finish, working with Upbeat Occasions was a breeze. DJ Chris was responsive to our requests and took time to really understand what we wanted, while also reading the room and keeping the energy right all night long. His transitions were smooth and the song order kept people engaged—the dance floor didn't empty once, and I was out there dancing to nearly every track. What impressed us most was how laid back he was while staying totally in tune with what the crowd needed, and our guests wouldn't stop raving about the music selection. Chris made our reception feel effortless and fun, and honestly, it's hard to imagine our day going any better. We'd absolutely recommend Upbeat Occasions to anyone looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your wedding special.”

Many friends have said, “you guys should have a 10 year anniversary party and get the same DJ!” Javier is amazing, professional, a great communicator and overall reliable. We met prior to the wedding to go over our favorite music choices and just with a simple list of songs, he was able to create an amazing playlist/mixes of songs that kept to party going ALL night. One of my guests even mentioned she caught two wedding crashers who were dining downstairs at the restaurant of our wedding venue who joked “we had to come upstairs and take a look because the music is great!” Several years later we hired Unique Class DJs for our daughter’s birthday and Javier was also amazing. I’ve also recommended clients to Unique Class DJs and all are extremely satisfied.”

Awarded Best of Zola
“We’ve been big fans of the O-Tones for many years. We wanted to hire the full six-piece band, but our small venue -an outdoor pavilion-could not accommodate that. Mary Witt, band leader and outstanding vocalist, suggested a duo, herself on bass and guitarist John Caban. Their repertoire included swing, R&B, classic rock and soul. They were very flexible and professional. We chose as our first dance the Etta James classic “At Last”. (We are in our 70’s!!!) Mary and John’s rendition was moving and a bit sultry - just perfect for us. Their ability to read the crowd and go with our flow added so much to the fun and the warmth of our special day!”

I’m Alex Edge — a DJ, music curator, and lifelong fan of a great party. I started Alex Edge & Co. to bring a more personal, elevated energy to wedding entertainment. With years of experience behind the decks and a sharp instinct for reading the room, I’ve built a trusted collective of DJs and musicians who know how to create unforgettable moments.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Alex was a total hit at our wedding! We had some specific songs we wanted to play - and he did - but we mostly trusted him and had a saying leading up to the wedding: "let Alex cook." And cook he did. A good dance floor was important to us (my wife LOVES to dance) and he couldn't have delivered a better dance floor vibe. Alex is a total pro from start to finish but doesn't have that generic, sometimes cheesy "wedding DJ" vibe. He picked up on our taste and played exactly what we had in mind. We also booked a saxophonist through Alex and WOW was that a hit. The sax player (also named Alex) was a high energy, high vibes addition. Totally recommend asking AE about that.”

“Style: check Vibes: check Loves to keep the party going all night long: check Lucas is seriously the best. He made our wedding - it wouldn't have been possible without him. Early on in planning, we thought we could do the whole event with a handful of playlists and a laptop. We are so glad we didn't. Lucas was dialed into the needs of our guests, the timings of the evening, and brought everything together seamlessly. If your debating getting a dj, don't. Get a Lucas, you'll thank yourself later.”
