Highly recommend! Second Song were so easy to work with from start to finish. I loved their process of choosing a DJ - it meant we found the perfect match for our wedding. Their communication was excellent. When booking, we thought we needed some extra lighting but Second Song had a look at our venue and confirmed we wouldn’t need it - I really appreciated their honesty!! Our DJ Joey Moon was incredible! I have never experienced a DJ like him. Joey has the best energy and really knows how to read the room. Myself and my husband have slightly different music tastes and Joey blended the genres perfectly. Joey made us feel confident before the wedding as he answered all our questions and checked in with us on the lead up. All of our guests commented on how amazing Joey was. Thank you!

We cannot say enough about DJ Rock Steady and his wife! They absolutely nailed it at our wedding on December 28, 2024. From start to finish, they were professional, engaging, and in total sync with the crowd, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed all night long. Ours was a dry wedding (a fun little nod to the bride's rule: “If I can’t drink, no one can!”—though we did sneak in a champagne toast). Despite the absence of alcohol, the party was nothing short of epic. We owe that entirely to DJ Rock Steady’s incredible ability to create an electric atmosphere and keep everyone having a blast. The feedback from our guests has been overwhelming—many commented that it was one of the most fun and lively weddings they’d ever attended. It's true what they say: the DJ and the caterer are the backbone of any great wedding, and we struck gold with DJ Rock Steady. His talent, energy, and charisma turned our special day into an unforgettable celebration. We wholeheartedly recommend DJ Rock Steady to anyone looking for a top-notch DJ who can truly bring an event to life. Thank you, DJ Rock Steady, a thousand times over for making our wedding so special and memorable. We’ll forever be grateful for your magic on our big day! With love and appreciation, Madi and Casey

Jeremy and his team at JD Entertainment are absolute professionals. I've worked with Jeremy on multiple weddings now, and every single time he shows up prepared, coordinated, and ready to execute flawlessly. He doesn't just play music — he works with me to manage the flow of the entire reception. He communicates with all of us vendors beforehand, knows the timeline cold, and adjusts on the fly when needed. What really impresses me is how he reads the room and keeps couples and their guests moving toward the dance floor instead of getting stuck in lulls. The energy he brings keeps the party going all night. If you're a bride or groom looking for a DJ who's a true professional and a joy to work with, Jeremy is your guy.

Turn Up Nashville went above and beyond through the planning process and on our wedding day. From the start our DJ, Jared, was extremely helpful in bringing out details and identifying things that we never would have thought of. He had meetings with us about 6 months out and 3 months out so the timeline of the evening and the details are all squared away well before the normal 30 day mark. So when all the other vendors needed those details, we already knew the answer, which was a huge relief during the final month of planning. During the wedding and ceremony we knew that we needed a solid DJ that could MC the night and run things so we did not have to. Jared delivered on this by keeping the party going, making sure dances and speeches were on time, as well as adjusting to vibes in the room all night. Also shout out to Tyler who went above and beyond for a later add of a photobooth for us. We seriously can't recommend these guys enough, they made the planning process smooth, as well has ran the ceremony music and reception perfectly!
