“Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have. If you're reading this review to thing about booking, stop here and go for it, you won't regret working with Sweet Harmony”

I’m Trevor Harris, founder and DJ at Total Harmony Entertainment, and I love helping couples turn their vision into a celebration they'll never forget. I structure wedding timelines in real time through cueing, sequencing, and continuous adjustment to guest response. Ceremony timing, introductions, and formal moments are kept precise, while I shape the reception moment to moment to prevent stalls or loss of momentum once dancing begins. The focus is maintaining clarity during structured portions of the day and actively managing movement and attention once the dance floor opens.

“Trevor was hands down one of the best vendors we chose for our wedding! From day one, he was incredibly communicative, responsive, and made the entire planning process so easy. The app was seamless to use and made organizing our timeline, song requests, and all the little details completely stress-free. He also offered a virtual Photo Booth, a better alternative for smaller weddings than a physical one. Trevor even added to that Photo Booth with videos he had taken throughout the night. We had a smaller wedding, and I was a little worried about keeping the dance floor full, but Trevor absolutely delivered. He knew exactly how to read the room and kept the party going all night. My husband loves rap, and I love alternative music, and Trevor blended both styles together perfectly. Every song felt like the right choice, and our guests had an amazing time. One of the most meaningful moments of the night was a surprise family dance that Trevor secretly coordinated with my husband. I had absolutely no idea it was coming, and it turned into one of my favorite memories from our wedding day. It was such a thoughtful surprise, and seeing everything come together so seamlessly made it even more special. It meant the world to me and my family. Trevor truly helped make our wedding feel like us. He brought incredible energy, paid attention to every detail, and made the entire night flow effortlessly. Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had, and we couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, talented, and genuinely cares about making your wedding unforgettable, Trevor is the one. Thank you for making our day more special than we could have imagined!”

I've been a DJ since 1997 starting out on the radio in college rotating between the morning wake-up, afternoon drive and late night. I have been DJing weddings since 2005 and I love watching soon-to-be newlyweds, their friends, and families enjoy themselves and being responsible for leading those once in a lifetime moments.

“First, Nate, thank you for making our wedding dreams come true. Not only did our family and friends love and adore you, but you also redefined what it means to go above and beyond and care about people. That is simply what Nate does best. There aren't enough paragraphs to describe our experience with Nate. He always went out of his way to care for us. We were the priority. The process leading up to our wedding was so smooth. We always looked forward to our meetings with Nate. He made them fun and introspective, and he's highly accessible. From our first meeting, my now wife and I were hooked. He has a wonderful personality, and he never stopped caring about us. He made sure that our vision was met and executed to perfection. Also, the extra attention to detail was the icing on the cake. He listened to our vision and music choices and helped make our wedding possible. What is so great about Nate is that we never once felt like we were a number. Through this process, we all became family. In terms of the ceremony and reception, everything was perfect. The audio, the music, the vibes, and especially the beautiful uplighting were immaculate because of Nate. Not once did his energy drop, if anything, he made sure the party continued, and it did. He took control and didn't miss a beat on our special day. Nate understood exactly what to play, and he made our day easier. That's exactly what a DJ is supposed to do and then some. Also, his love and knowledge of music is just phenomenal. I know the themes of this review have been about family, caring, and service, and that's exactly what you get from Nate. Also, we had an amazing saxophone player who was fantastic. He's a great addition to Nate's platform. Let me say this. If we could get married again, Nate would automatically be the person we'd go with. There's no one like Nate, and there won't be. Nate is special and is truly one-of-a-kind. He creates memories, and we're just waiting to be able to have him as a DJ at another family function. He deserves all of the stars, likes, you name it. His YouTube page is amazing as well. Like I said, he is family now, and we love you, Nate! Which is why Nate Jones will always be our DJ.”

“We had an amazing experience with The Hook Club for our wedding. Dan and his team were so easy to work with, and their 5-piece DJ band was the perfect, fun switch-up from a traditional band for our June wedding at Greenpoint Loft. We also had a ceremony guitarist and a saxophonist with tracks for the cocktail hour, which added great touches to the day. The uplights they brought for the room were priced very well and created a beautiful atmosphere. The music planning worksheet they provided was incredibly helpful, and they offered valuable advice on the timeline and flow of the reception, which was a huge help. They were fun to work with, and on the night of the wedding, they absolutely crushed it. The music was fantastic, they kept the vibes high, and their crowd engagement was excellent. We highly recommend The Hook Club for any event. They made our wedding unforgettable!”
