The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!

Rochester, NY
  • DJ

We have been in business since 2008 and have hundreds and hundreds of happy clients that recommend us regularly. Many of our DJ's have been DJing for over 15 years and our experience shows. We are energetic with your guests and keep the energy level up! We offer some of the most extensive event lighting options in the area and have a very experienced team of professional lighting designers.

Ultimate Entertainment was fantastic from start to finish. They responded quickly to all our questions and did exactly what we asked for on our wedding day. The DJ kept the energy high throughout the night and made sure the flow stayed on track, so our guests were dancing the entire time. Their sound quality was crisp and clear, and they really knew how to read the room. We loved how professional they were while still keeping things fun and lively. We'd definitely recommend them to any couple looking for a DJ that will keep their reception moving and get everyone on the dance floor.

Nathan helped make our wedding day so special! Throughout the planning process, he took the time to really go through the details of our day and get to know us. He got excited about our ideas and gave great suggestions on how to bring them to life. On the wedding day, Nathan helped make sure everything ran smoothly, coordinating with other vendors and our friends and family to make sure everyone had what they needed from before the ceremony through the end of the night. He knew we wanted to do our first dance and toasts outside during cocktail hour, right before sunset, so he made sure to check in with us to get the timing just right, and it was magical! During dinner, we had curated a playlist of first dance songs from our guests, and he helped create so many special moments by encouraging folks to get up and dance when they heard their song, and stayed flexible when we were ready to get dancing started. The reception was an absolute blast and my dream dance floor. The end of the night was perfection with several "last songs" and getting to soak it all in in a circle of our favorite people. Nathan is an expert and the whole night flowed so perfectly with so many core memories created. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Sound Express Entertainment 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Rochester, NY

Sound Express Entertainment is a premier wedding DJ and entertainment company based in the Rochester, NY area. With years of experience bringing couples' wedding visions to life, we specialize in creating high energy, personalized celebrations that guests talk about long after the night is over. From the first dance to the last song, we're committed to keeping the energy exactly where you want it, every step of the way.

Working with DJ Alex from Sound Express Entertainment at Belhurst Castle in Geneva, NY was one of the absolute highlights of our wedding day. If you're looking for a DJ who knows how to keep a dance floor packed, read the crowd, and make the reception feel effortless, look no further. From our very first conversation, Alex was incredibly communicative and easy to work with. He struck the perfect balance between being organized and letting us enjoy the planning process. He never overwhelmed us with endless emails or decisions, and instead guided us through the important details at exactly the right times. Before the ceremony, we reviewed all of the key moments and logistics. Then, during cocktail hour, Alex met with us again to go over the reception timeline, make a few last-minute adjustments, and ensure everything reflected what we wanted. We changed the order of a few events, and he adapted without missing a beat. He always offered thoughtful recommendations without ever being pushy. One of our biggest priorities was sneaking away for sunset photos on the dock overlooking Seneca Lake. Alex worked seamlessly with our photographers to coordinate the timing. While we were away, he kept our guests entertained, and when we returned, he welcomed us back to a packed dance floor and roaring cheers from our family and friends. It was one of our favorite moments of the entire day. And speaking of the dance floor... it never stopped. Alex and his assistant, Vinny, absolutely crushed it. Their music mixing was phenomenal, the transitions were seamless, and they knew exactly how to keep the energy high. The dance floor was hopping from the first dance set until the final song. One of the funniest moments of the night was an unexpected worm dance-off, which perfectly summed up the fun atmosphere they created. We received countless compliments from our guests, including one family member who joked that Alex was trying to give someone a heart attack with all the nonstop hits and energy—in the best possible way! Every time you thought people might sit down, another great song came on and everyone was right back on the dance floor. Alex also nailed our multi-song wedding party introductions, building excitement all the way to our grand entrance. His crowd interaction felt natural and engaging without ever being over-the-top. Our only request was simple: keep the dance floor lively. Alex and Vinny didn't just meet that expectation—they completely exceeded it. If you're considering Sound Express Entertainment, book them. Alex and Vinny are professional, flexible, incredibly talented, and genuinely invested in making your wedding unforgettable. Months from now, people may not remember what they ate for dinner, but they will absolutely remember the party—and ours was one our guests are still talking about. Thank you both for giving us a reception we'll never forget! Tess and Sam Photo Credit to Dear Grace Photography

We hired Intrinsic Groove to perform at our wedding in April 2026 and it was nothing short of INCREDIBLE. We watched a lot of videos and felt confident they were going to be great, but they far exceeded our expectations. They were high energy, crowd engaging, phenomenal performers who met the vibe every single time. Vocals were KILLER. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I credit a lot of that to the energy the band brought. On top of a killer reception, they also did incredible ceremony and cocktail hour music that made everything flow harmoniously. You just can’t beat a killer band for your wedding, worth every penny!

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.

Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

Wedding advice: hire Cover Story Entertainment! We worked with CSE for our July wedding. We went with the ceremony package, 6-piece band as well as their uplighting and photo booth services. Our experience with CSE from start to finish was 10/10. Chris and Elena are incredibly organized, communicative, and responsive. They always answered all of our questions (and I asked many!) Alec, Alex, Savannah, and the rest of the band members rocked it all night. One of the first things guests commented on about our wedding was how amazing the band was.

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.

Caroline was the DJ at my wedding in the beginning of august and the whole entire process from meeting her the first time, to building the playlist, to the final meeting and big day, was so easy and fun! She always checked In with us to see if we had any questions along the way and how we were feeling. Throughout the event she would check in and ask questions to make sure we were okay with guest requests and other things that were going on. I couldn’t suggest a better DJ. The music was everything we hoped for and more. Do not hesitate to have Caroline/upbeat occasions for your wedding. You will not regret!!

Just The Melody Band 
Rating: 5.0 (7 reviews)

  • Serves Rochester, NY

JUST THE MELODY BAND (JTM) is an all-star cast featuring a Grammy nominee and voices featured in tv/film and theatre. Led by singer, songwriter, and recording artist Melody Rodriguez, the band can be heard in numerous styles such as Latin Pop, Boy Bands and 90’s nostalgia, while authentically performing standards and classics with powerhouse vocals.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a band for a multicultural wedding, we knew they had to be special. Just the Melody was the first band we reached out to and it was clear from the onset that we didn’t have to look any further because we knew they were the ones. Throughout the entire experience, Melody and Edvin were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly responsive and took the planning process seriously while also keeping it fun. We were able to have multiple planning meetings where they clearly listened to our vision and more specifically the energy we were hoping to bring to the entire evening. Our wedding included multiple different musical moments that Just the Melody was able to provide with aplomb. The ceremony was romantic instrumental music that transitioned to modern pop instrumentals during the first half of the cocktail hour. Then a Mariachi band took over the second half of the cocktail hour with Melody providing gorgeous vocals for a few songs before the 12-piece band took over the magic for the rest of the night. The band with Edvin as MC matched the energy of our guests the entire night in a way we never expected. After our first dance, a beautiful rendition of Luis Miguel’s”Por Debajo De La Mesa”, the band moved right into a wondrous lineup of Latin music including Cumbia, Bachata, and Salsa that got our guests up and on their feet. From that point forward the dancing was nonstop with both American and Latin music filling the air. They also helped us celebrate the joining of our Jewish and Latino cultures by playing the Hora followed by La Vibora De La Mar. Edvin and Melody worked well with our venue to time our fathers’ speeches when our guests paused for a moment to eat and they were thoughtful with the tempo of the night by pairing this with our father/bride and mother/groom dances. After dinner they brought the energy right back up and we even got to see some of Edvin’s unreal dance moves when the 90s/2000s pop music started up. We could absolutely not believe it when they allowed us to come on stage and belt out one of our favorite songs (Jimmy Eat World’s “The Middle”). It was a living dream (especially for the bride). We cannot say enough how much both of us and all of our guests absolutely adored Just the Melody. We have been told multiple times by our guests that they didn't expect to go to a concert along with our wedding and that they loved every minute of it. And we did too. The music the entire evening was exceptional and better than anything we could have come up with in our wildest dreams for the evening. Thank you Melody, Edvin and the entire Just the Melody crew - we could not have chosen better for our wedding!!

After our officiant flaked last minute on providing ceremony music, the DJ Company was extremely helpful in showing up early to the ceremony and provide the music for us. Our DJ, Joe, was super friendly and seemed to be having fun alongside us during the reception. Thank you again for a great night!

We had the absolute pleasure of Chris Morris from Buffaluv soundz DJing our wedding this July. Everything from the initial consultation to the last hours he was there cleaning up his equipment was a great experience in which we felt true dedication from him and his team towards making our day perfect. They were extremely down to earth and easy to work with. Chris helped personalize so many touches within our day from a unique first dance to hyping our folks up for the dance floor. He was so extraordinarily professional arriving very early to set up and make sure everything was perfect and checking in with us in regard to all sorts of details that really brought our dreams to reality. I can’t say enough about what a difference it made to have such an attentive to detail and caring person in charge of the sound, music and overall vibe of our wedding day. There was nothing generic, boring or overdone and every moment felt like it was truly ours. Chris is the best! I would recommend him to everyone! we went with a package that included the Photo Booth and Cloud effect for the dance floor which made our first dance so fire! Everyone really loved the Photo Booth. They had great props and backgrounds and they even gave us a photo album filled with our guest pics. That was an awesome surprise at the end of the night. Lastly, I just have to add, I was worried about DJ equipment and the look of it and the whole set up that Chris brought was gorgeous modern white, clean and elegant. We were so impressed! It really added to our aesthetic perfectly. Overall, they were just an absolute 10 out of 10 and made our wedding a fairytale come true!

Hit N Run Mobile DJ was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. Their communication style was awesome - they were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process.

Sandro was a great addition to our wedding, I’m so happy we selected him! His communication was great from start to finish. I requested songs that weren’t on his LONG list of songs he already knew and was able to accommodate me with no issues. His list of songs he already has was so cool, we wanted not the typical wedding songs, and more of a pop/rnb vibe. I asked he can do Dangerously in love by Beyoncé when I walked down, and he nailed it! He was the one vendor I had complete confidence in, and never had to worry. All my guest raved about him. If you need a violinist for your event look no further, you will be happy! Thank you Sandro for making our day amazing!

From the moment we started working with them, they were easy to communicate with and completely professional. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how amazing they sounded, and they really made the whole day feel extra special. We’re so grateful to Mama Juke for making our wedding unforgettable, and we would highly recommend them!
