I got married in Vegas and I can’t say enough good things about our DJ, Jake, from Second Song. All communication leading up the wedding was so efficient and accommodating (we wanted karaoke at our reception and he was even able to add-on a keyboard too). During our cocktail hour, dinner, and speeches, he seamlessly managed every step. And as the party amped up, he was so patient with my guests and all of our unhinged karaoke requests. I highly recommend Jake and I’m so grateful to him and Second Song as music was something that was very important to us while planning.

We cannot recommend DJ Eddie enough! He went above and beyond to help me execute a surprise for my husband during our ceremony, which involved playing a special song featuring the voice of his late mother. It was executed flawlessly and turned out to be one of my husband’s favorite moments of the entire day. As for the reception, the dance floor was never empty! Even family members who rarely dance were out there having a blast. So many guests told us, “The DJ was playing all the best tunes!” His song selections and transitions were perfect, keeping the energy high and everyone engaged. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, detail-oriented, and truly knows how to create unforgettable moments, look no further. They made our wedding absolutely magical!

After a long career DJing clubs, radio, and more I can honestly say nothing is more rewarding than weddings. Just knowing that my music bonds families and helps them enjoy themselves on their most important day is a feeling that can't be replicated at any other gig.

DJ Kelly saved our wedding and was insanely amazing. I want to host another event just to have him DJ again. Our wedding had things that went wrong due to the weather, but Kelly rolled with the punches and worked with us with ease. You could tell he knew what he was doing and made it look so effortless. From announcing speeches to DJing the best party ever, he was always on the mark. So many guests came up after and asked who the DJ was and commented on how incredible he was. He never played a song for too long, and really understood the audience and what music they were looking for. He captured all ages at our wedding and had everyone up on the dance floor for a straight 3 hours. It was like a rave with a mix of songs from each era. My now husband and I did not leave the dance floor once. When he announced he was leaving the crowd all started chanting that they wanted more, it was an absolute blast! Also, during the process and leadup before the wedding, Kelly was great to work with. Very communicative, straightforward and helpful! Our overall experience with Celebrations24 would be a 10/10 for sure.

His setup was one of the best I’ve ever seen—modern, sleek, and the killer lights matched our black-and-white theme perfectly.

All the music followed our requests to a T, and our guests are still raving about the party!
