If I could give them 10 million stars I would. Justin was so incredibly easy to work with, beyond personable, knowledgeable and organized. Even our venue was impressed with his scheduling and timelines! I was a last-minute bride, felt so discouraged with finding the *right* DJ and Justin swooped in and made it happen. (I may or may not have had about a month until my wedding date...yikes to me) Justin slayed our ceremony sound. He had my guests dancing all night with a stellar mix of music and stayed an extra hour to keep the party going. Music is such a huge part of our lives, and our story, and Justin understood the assignment! Thank you for making my wedding that much more amazing, Justin!! (Seriously, book them!)

Awarded Best of Zola
Spenser made this whole day so easy! I was on the fence about having a DJ for our very casual lunchtime wedding reception but once I started working with Spike events I knew we’d made the right decision. He perfectly captured the feel of what we were going for, from the cocktail hour, to the meal, to the actual dance floor. Everybody was dancing but anybody who wasn’t was still enjoying the music! Everything was perfect! Highly recommend

PK And The Mighty Seven

5.0

Medford, MA
  • Band or Ensemble

PK and the Mighty Seven has been celebrating with newly married couples since 2016! We were originally formed as a Jamiroquai tribute band, playing mostly music by the famed UK group along with other songs we enjoyed. Since that time, we've expanded our song list and played many weddings, which we love to do!

Awarded Best of Zola
We feel extremely lucky to have found PK and the Mighty Seven for our wedding! From the very beginning, they were extremely accommodating. Before we had committed to booking them, they offered to give us a small private showcase in a studio, which even our wedding planner said was basically unheard of. They were very receptive to our requests, both for music choices and for their role as MC, and they were clear and communicative with us throughout. And when we had to postpone our wedding due to COVID, it was no problem. As for the music itself, it was fantastic. They do a great mix of older and newer songs from a variety of styles, but their passion for all of it was evident. In fact, ours was the first wedding they happened to perform at since COVID began, and their joy at being back and playing did a lot to set the festive mood for out reception. They’re all super talented musicians, and multiple guests told us that they were the best wedding band they had ever heard. Their renditions of the three songs we asked them to learn for our first dance/parent dances were just as wonderful as everything from their regular set. Hire this band, you won’t be disappointed!

Shelley played the song that I walked down the aisle to, it is called “when Ginny kissed Harry”- a beautiful ballad from my favorite movie “Harry Potter”. This was incredibly special and romantic to me and Shelley could not have done a more beautiful job. Listening to it brought tears to my eyes. She was excellent and easy to work with. I’ll remember that aspect of my wedding forever. Thank you Shelley.

DeeJay Tom

5.0

Billerica, MA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000

Customer service to my clients is #1 to me – the wedding is not about me, it’s about you, your friends and your family. Once I understand what you envision at your wedding, I’ll use my 20+ years of experience to make sure everyone has a great and unforgettable time. I become very much involved in the timing and management of the evening from the moment you book me.

We decided on a DJ instead of a band for a few practical reasons. It's cheaper, there's more variety in what he/she can play and therefore can appeal to a broader audience, and most importantly for us, a DJ takes up less space than a band. We thought about foregoing a professional altogether and just doing the iPod thing, but I was afraid that it would stress me out. For anyone else who has done the DJ search, there is LOT of cheese out there! I received a packet from this one guy with all kinds of crazy rainbow colors and smiley faces and frankly, his voice on the phone scared me. We wanted a low-key DJ, not a show-boat. Tom was perfect. He totally delivered! He wore a tux and looked great. Call me shallow but that's important - the DJ is in the background of quite a few of the photos. He was professional and knew what to play to make everyone happy. He also played all of the songs we asked him to, which is not always a given. The reception was non-stop dancing all night. We had a blast!

The 1999

5.0

Reading, MA
  • Musician

Hello! We are The 1999 -- an energetic band with an unforgettable lead female vocalist, two dueling male vocals, and powerful rhythm section that dishes out songs spanning multiple decades and genres. In addition to our rocking band, we're come all-inclusive with a DJ/MC who serves Ceremony, Cocktail and Dinner; a professional concert-quality sound system; and stage & dance floor lighting. In addition to being the band of choice for many couples, you've probably seen us at clubs, charity events and corporate parties all over New England. Are you ready to transform your event into an epic party?

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow, wow, wow. The 1999 was recommended to us by our friends who saw them at a bar in Newport, RI. When we contacted them, they set up a private and intimate showcase where we got to sit down with the whole band and their DJ and ask a million questions. They also played a mini set and took our requests LIVE on the spot -- that blew us away. When it came time to our actual wedding, they were so polished, warm, friendly but most importantly energetic and fun. We had a wide range of ages at our wedding from kids under 12 to our great grandparents over 90 -- and all of them raved about how great they were. They were able to play our first dance live which made for a really special moment for my wife and me. Couldn't recommend them enough to the next couple. They are an absolute blast!

Elation Entertainment

5.0

Shirley, MA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,499

Elation is defined as extreme, exhilarating joy, and the emotion of great happiness. We chose our name to reflect the high level of service that we provide and the client satisfaction from the results we produce. In fact, we’re elated that you are here! DJ John Hathaway A unique love and passion for music serve as the foundation for John’s story of becoming a DJ. John has been entertaining the masses with hundreds of private celebrations and appearances in public venues under his belt for more than 20 years. His deep knowledge of music and diverse experience contribute strongly to creating fun and memorable events.

John was amazing to work with! He was interested and invested and takes a lot of pride in his job. We gave him some special tasks like blending a Beatles song with an Italian song for the father/daughter dance as well as asked him to put together an EDM block with our favorite songs and he nailed both of them. The dance floor was packed all night and everyone complimented us on our DJ. Very responsive and helpful, would recommend to anyone. Thanks for making our day extra special John!!!

Joseph & Erika

5.0

Groton, MA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,850

We’re here to make things simple: We play live music. We DJ. And we help create unforgettable moments that are uniquely you. If you’re ready for a soundtrack for your wedding day that perfectly complements your vibe, delivered to you in a totally unique, no-compromise entertainment package, we’ve got you covered.

The best decision we made for our wedding! We got married on Nantucket and we’re struggling with DJ selections so our Wedding Planner recommended Joseph & Erika. We are SO happy that we selected these two as they were incredibly professional, had wonderful recommendations for our big day, and did an amazing job meeting our requests and keeping everyone on the dancefloor! Joseph & Erika were the best of both worlds for our big day, playing both live music and also switching to DJing during the reception. We opted to have them join us for our Cocktail Hour for live music and our guests could not stop talking about how lovely of an addition they were. During our reception, they did a perfect job MC’ing and keeping the evening moving along with great live-background music, and after keeping up a fun dancefloor, they played a private last dance for us and it was magical! We couldn’t have been happier with the music and service they provided - 11/10 recommend!
