Awarded Best of Zola
We can't say enough good things about Shane! From our very first conversation, I knew he was the perfect fit for our wedding. He was the first (and only) DJ we interviewed. He was easy to talk to and truly passionate about what he does. After our pre-wedding planning meeting, I remember thinking, "I nailed this vendor!" lol. On wedding day, he provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and even created a custom version of my aisle song by blending two tracks I loved! He kept everything running smoothly, handled all announcements effortlessly, read the room perfectly, and kept the vibe exactly where it needed to be all night long. We also rented his digital photobooth, which was a huge hit. It came with all photo accessories, and there was always a line every time I looked over. Out of all our vendors, Shane was hands-down our favorite. We thoroughly enjoyed working with him and couldn’t be happier with the role he played in making our day so memorable. If you're looking for a DJ who truly cares and delivers an unforgettable experience, Shane is your guy!

Golden Scroll Soloists 

5.0

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves Shannock, RI

The Golden Scroll Soloists have been wowing Northeast audiences with a variety of styles for 20 years, melding familiar songs you love into an elegant string quartet experience. We helped popularize the "crossover string quartet", much like the Vitamin String Quartet, during the early days of classical crossover. Our style, now made mainstream by Bridgerton, predated the Netflix hit show by 15 years. We're ready to play for your ceremony, your cocktail hour, or maybe even your reception. Choose from a string quartet, string trio, string duo, or violin soloist. Let's start planning the soundtrack to your happily ever after!

We had the Golden Scroll Soloists perform for our ceremony and cocktail hour at our wedding at OceanCliff this past April, and they were absolutely incredible! From the very beginning, Kevin was so responsive and made the entire process seamless. He provided curated playlists to make things easy, but also gave us the option to customize by selecting individual songs and listening to clips right on their website which we really appreciated. We chose the trio, and it was the perfect fit. We mixed modern songs with some timeless classics, and they brought it all to life beautifully. Our guests kept commenting on how unique and elegant the music was. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out and would highly recommend Golden Scroll Soloists to anyone looking for live music for a wedding or special event. Truly a highlight of our day!

Joey G is like my cool uncle except he’s got sick DJ skills. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Not only was he professional and organized, but he also brought an incredible energy to our wedding. For the ceremony and cocktail hour, we provided him with a specific music selection, and even though we never rehearsed together, he nailed it perfectly. During the reception, we gave him a playlist, and he struck the perfect balance between sticking to our choices and reading the crowd to keep everyone dancing. One highlight was when Joey G handed the microphone to people in the crowd, turning our reception into an impromptu karaoke party. It was a blast! He was not only fun and engaging but also very attentive to our needs. He asked how to pronounce each name correctly for the toasts, ensuring everything went smoothly. We requested that he not take song requests, and he respected our wishes completely. The sound quality was stellar, and his equipment setup was flawless. Joey G understood our need for clean music as we had many families with young children attending, yet he still kept the atmosphere lively and fun. The dance floor was packed with all 150 guests! Joey G was also a great help with announcements, coordinating toasts, and working with friends and family to announce the newlyweds and photo groups. His flexibility and attention to detail were impressive. Overall, I highly recommend Joey G to any couple looking for an awesome wedding DJ. He provided a questionnaire that made the whole planning process so easy, and his execution was simply fantastic. Joey G truly made our wedding day unforgettable!

Blurred Vision

  • Serves Shannock, RI

In addition to our award winning seven piece band of drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, saxophone, and male & female vocals, Blurred Vision has customizable package options, including a DJ, add on instruments, cocktail hour music, ceremony music and more! Emcee services and dance floor lighting are never an additional cost!

Blurred Vision played at my wedding on May 24th in Newport, RI, and I could not recommend them enough! To my family and me, the band was the most important vendor, and Christiana, Bruce, and the team delivered above and beyond! Throughout the process, they were very professional and experienced, keeping me stress-free. I didn't have a ton of song requests (aside from the first dances), and they knew exactly what to play to keep the party going; the vocals and instruments were terrific. We also used the band (DJ) for the outdoor ceremony, and everything was on time; the acoustics were flawless. They also played live the majority of the time (just a quick break for dinner and one other time). I have attended other weddings in the past where the bands didn't play much. If I could give Blurred Vision more than 5 stars, I would! I'll be keeping my eye on their schedule to see them play at venues in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
WOW. We cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding DJ, DJ Dayglow, Kara — she was an absolute dream! We hired her for our July 2025 wedding. From the moment we connected, she was professional, easy to work with, and brought such a calm, grounding presence to the day. We felt completely at ease knowing she had everything under control. Her vibe was exactly what we were looking for — fun, intuitive, and never overbearing. Kara knew exactly when to speak, kept everything flowing smoothly, and never overdid it on the mic (which was something we were a bit nervous about after seeing some overly-hyped DJs at other events). She struck the perfect balance and read the room so well. Not to mention she kept the dancefloor packed ALL NIGHT. I got so many comments from guests that they couldn't believe the energy on the dance floor. It was non-stop amazingness all night. On top of everything, Kara was so helpful when we asked her to coordinate with my dad and cousin, who each performed songs during the reception. She knew exactly what to do and took care of the timing and setup seamlessly — it was such a relief to hand that off to her and know it was in great hands. We got so many compliments from our guests about how amazing she was, and we honestly couldn't agree more. Kara exceeded every expectation — truly the DJ of our dreams!!!!! Do not hesitate!!

The group offers two all-inclusive wedding packages along with planning assistance and 100% dedication to making your day run smoothly! You and your guests will experience the thrill of a live musical performance with songs selected from our extensive, timeless, and versatile repertoire. The band performs each song with a unique, soulful style aimed to get guests out of their seats and onto the dance floor!

We cannot recommend this band enough - they were absolutely amazing and without a doubt the best choice we made to set the mood for the evening. The dance floor didn’t stop all night long - my husband and I couldn’t sit in our seats to finish dinner because we were so excited to get up and dance the second the live music started. The vibes were impeccable. Their voices are so, so good and we love the incorporation of the horns - it really takes the performance up a notch! We booked with Greg and he was wonderful to work with - so friendly, quick to respond and helpful with any questions I had throughout the wedding planning journey. Having a live band was so important to us and our guests have not stopped raving about how great the music was. We had guests dancing that I’ve never seen on the dance floor at any other wedding. The MC services were killer - they even agreed to play piano for our cocktail hour as a special add on at our venue. We love TITTB!!!

The quality of their work was truly exceptional - Josh is an incredibly talented musician and public speaker who made our ceremony so special by playing live violin as I walked down the aisle and keeping our guests entertained during the reception party. His performance was nothing short of amazing, and I would choose him over and over again.
