DJ Glaze Entertainment 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
Sarasota, FL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $500

I specialize in unforgettable wedding receptions by layering in trumpet during key moments. I’ve been DJing for 20 years with a background in jazz, and have a deep understanding of music that caters to all age groups. I bring sophistication and class by providing guests on a sonic journey from beginging to end, while taking all of the guess work off of the table for the bride and groom.

From our first conversation with DJ Glaze Entertainment, we knew we'd found our DJ. He was professional and upbeat throughout the entire planning process, making us feel heard and excited about our big day. During the reception, he read the room perfectly and kept the energy exactly where we wanted it. The highlight was definitely the trumpet flair that had guests ranting and raving all night long. It added a sophisticated touch that made our celebration feel truly unforgettable. His musical selections were tasteful and unique, creating the perfect vibe for dancing and celebrating with our loved ones. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ and would recommend DJ Glaze Entertainment to any couple looking for something special.

Karolina’s flair for creating unforgettable experiences led her to play at illustrious events across Orlando, including the grand 2015 New Year’s Eve Charity Ball and several fashion shows in Orlando, Tampa, and Sarasota. Returning to Sarasota with a wealth of experience, she made waves in the nightlife scene as the first local female DJ to hold a residency, captivating audiences with her dynamic sets. Karolina's talents have since shone at high-energy venues like the Hard Rock Cafe, electrified crowds at Amalie Arena during Tampa Bay Lightning games, and added sparkle to the Gasparilla Invasion

I have had the pleasure of working with DJ Lira at various venues and events for the past 10 years. Her communication is exceptional, with quick and fast responses to any inquiries. The quality of their work and value is outstanding - they are incredibly entertaining, organized, and offer an affordable and fun experience. She works with couples to create a customized playlist for our special day and even provided additional perks like uplighting to enhance the atmosphere. DJ Lira's calm and professional demeanor makes her a dream to work with for both vendors and clients alike. I highly recommend their services to any couple looking for a top-notch wedding DJ.

Spark Notes 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

Music is the language of our souls. Beyond our own personal enjoyment, we've spent time and effort to find like minded performers who are talented, energetic, and above all reliable. Professional and musician are two words that are not often imagined together: we aim a little higher and prefer the term "Full-time Entertainer" ;)

"I had the pleasure of having Alfonso & Gene perform for my wedding ceremony/reception. They absolutely rocked! I had a bit of a snafu when there was no where to plug in their equipment at the ceremony. Their quick thinking saved it. They played some soft acoustic music and sang softly in the background. They selected the perfect songs on the fly. I absolutely loved the song choice of Hallelujah during the ceremony! They are so creative and thoughtful in the way they perform. The mix of Pumped up Kicks with Seminole Wind blew my mind! I cannot thank you both enough. You made my day perfect and I would recommend your services to anyone in need of a rockin' party band. Spark Notes, is the best choice I could have made for great entertainment. Keep on Rockin!"

Al Fusco Music 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • Solo performer
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

Al has been delighting audiences for his entire career. With his souring voice & subtle phrasing, he transforms any song into a "musical journey." His vocal stylings will make you swear that Bobby Darin, Louie Armstrong, Stevie Wonder, Elvis or Sinatra are in the room, singing! His stage presence & comedic timing will have you laughing till you cry & then his romantic ballads and beautiful Broadway melodies, will put a lump in your throat. All truly does it all!

Al is a multi-talented vocalist and musician with many years of experience entertaining audiences, both large and small, and on stages all over the country, including Atlantic City and New York City. His musical talent and ability to sing many different genres is amazing. Al is a master showman, and I cannot recommend him more highly as an amazing choice for your wedding or for any other special event.

Rockstar DJ!! Mike is absolutely wonderful in tune with all the music & his clients. He kept my wedding jamming for our whole reception & did the ceremony before too.

He's laid back & easy to work with, when meeting Mike he felt like a long time friend. Their pricing is not outrageous either! Hands down awesome DJ!

Jam All Day Entertainment 
Rating: 5.0 (2 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

Jam All Day Sound and Entertainment began from my love of music and motivating people to dance and have a great time. I’m passionate about what I do and the energy and excitement I bring to each event has led to my success. I feel blessed that my clients go out of their way to recommend me to their friends and family. I love hearing about how everyone enjoyed the music selection and how it appealed to all age groups.

Jamaal was an absolutely incredible DJ who went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable. After being severely impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we had to switch venues and move from a ballroom to a tent. Despite all the challenges, Jamaal showed professionalism and dedication. We especially loved the photo mirror he brought—it was such a fun, modern twist on the classic photo booth! He provided plenty of props that our guests loved using for memorable photos, and gave us a book with a collection of photos our guests had taken through out the evening via the mirror, such a special gift from our day! Jamaal also brought beautiful uplighting that transformed our tent into the ultimate dancing destination. He handled every detail with care, creating special and unique moments that truly made our day feel like ours. I would highly recommend Jamaal to anyone looking for an experienced, fun DJ who knows how to get people on the dance floor—and who can even pronounce the trickiest last names flawlessly!

Second Song is a boutique Wedding and Event DJ/MC service. We are a network of some of the most experienced and most referred DJ/MCs in Southern California, and specialize in DJs that focus on providing you with a complete music and planning experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Our venue didn’t allow live bands, so we worked with Second Song to book a DJ and a saxophonist — and they absolutely nailed it. We were incredibly specific with our music preferences and DJ personality (including needing someone bilingual in Spanish for our multicultural crowd). Rob was amazing — he sent us five DJs who fit our vibe perfectly, and we got to speak with each one before choosing. We went with John McGrath as our DJ and he was phenomenal. He met with us multiple times before the wedding to understand our very detailed vision and gave us total confidence that he’d “read the room” — which he did, flawlessly. The sax player brought a ton of energy, and together they kept the dance floor alive all night, which is exactly what we wanted

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.
