Shut Down Productions

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • 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.

My husband and I used Direct Entertainment for our DJ and videographer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased!! The team was professional, great at communication, very kind and professional, and they helped make our day absolutely perfect! Jeff, our DJ kept the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT!! When the music had to stop at the end of the night, the dance floor was still completely full and no one wanted it to end. He did a great job announcing the events of the night, made sure that our ceremony music was perfect, and he stuck to our wedding playlist with the exception for a couple guest requests (which we were happy to allow). We were so happy and thankful to have Jeff there! Sie, our videographer also did a wonderful job! We have not yet received our video as our wedding was less than 2 weeks ago, but I already know it is going to be amazing. He was so great with communication, was prompt with his timing, and he even set up a second camera for guests to break away and give us well wishes for our marriage, which I'm so excited to watch back. He was very professional and wonderful to work with. We decided to add videography at the last minute because we thought we might regret not having it, and I am SO happy we asked Jim at Direct Entertainment if they had someone available for our day just a month before, and they did!! Jim, the coordinator at Direct Entertainment frequently checked in with us, asked us questions about ourselves, and genuinely made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He was great to work with leading up to being assigned our designated DJ and videographer, and even after, he checked in to make sure we were happy and that all of the planning was going well. Overall, we would 1000% recommend Direct Entertainment for any wedding entertainment needs! I know they also offer several other services that we did not utilize, and I'm sure they are wonderful as well! Photos courtesy of Lang at Wandering Wolf Photography.

We used Dave for our wedding on April 15, 2023. We are so glad we did! He setup sound and music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and we did a few add-ons with up-lighting and the cold sparks. Dave review: He was extremely professional and has a perfect voice and presence for a hype DJ. He arrived on time and setup without any issues. We spent a lot of time on the phone discussing the wishes we had and building out the timeline. He made plenty of great recommendations for minor changes to make the night go smoothly. He even had no problems with a last minute change we needed to make when a bridesmaid didn't show up which required a script change. Dave had the dance floor packed all night from 7:30-10:30pm! Up-lighting: so fun! It syncs with the music and colors can change. It added classy effects during dinner and fun energy for dancing. Cold sparks: we didn't add these until a few days before the wedding as a last minute splurge! We wanted them but weren't sure it was worth the cost. We are SO glad we did it! There was a tech that came out to run them and it was so fun to have them go off for our announcement into the reception, our first dance, and other random songs throughout the night. We had so many guests mention how much they liked it! And it helped get people on the dance floor when they could see the sparks go off from outside through the windows.
