We hired Second Song to DJ our wedding and we are totally happy with the results! Rob was great to work with and provided different options for the services. We ended up with a great balance of great cost and services that met our needs. Rob was equally great during the contracting process since we wanted a few updates to their standard contract. Rob then lined up Kev the DJ and Kev was fantastic! We had a couple of meetings to work out the music we wanted Kev to play, and he provided really good suggestions on how best to organize the music. On the day of the wedding Kev joined us at our hotel before the wedding for a quick rehearsal of the ceremony. At the wedding Kev brought incredible energy as the MC and kept the music flowing perfectly as the DJ. Kev was so great sometimes I was hanging out with him.

  • Serves Sarasota, FL

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. When I began getting requested for weddings, I saw a void for club DJs in the industry, so I picked the best and started Shut Down Productions. In addition to our DJ & MC services, we have grown to be a one stop shop by also offering photo booths, lighting, special effects and more to make your celebration even better.

Awarded Best of Zola
If you want a party that your guests will talk about for years to come you’ll choose Shut Down Productions, and more specifically Burton Williams, as your DJ and entertainment company. Burton was the most timely, respectful, professional, prepared, and overall electric DJ we had the absolute pleasure of working with for our wedding day. As we looked for a DJ it was top of mind to have someone who felt comfortable playing all genres of music. Burton seamlessly blended R&B, Hip-hop, Pop, Country, Salsa, Merengue, Bachata… I mean you name it he played it. He kept our guests off their feet the entire night! We also rented a photo booth through him that was an absolute hit with our guests. They provided all the props, and it captured the best high-quality photos. I could not be happier with our decision to work with SDP and Burton, they are without a doubt worth every penny and more! Trust the professionals and they will not disappoint! Thank you to Burton and the team for a night we will never forget!
