“I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.”

“Matthew was truly one of the most important parts of our wedding, and we cannot recommend him enough. He is clearly an expert at what he does, but what makes him so extraordinary is how he does it. He has this incredible ability to captivate an entire room and make everyone feel involved. He doesn’t just perform — he creates moments. If there was one non-negotiable for our wedding, it was having Matthew there, and our guests completely validated that decision. They absolutely RAVED about him all night and continued talking about him afterward. One moment Nick and I will never forget is the entire room singing “New York, New York” together during dinner while Matthew played the saxophone. It is a moment that is forever etched in our brains. And honestly, that is exactly what our wedding was all about — creating those unforgettable moments of unity between both of our families and all of the people we love. We can’t thank Matthew enough for everything he contributed to our wedding and for the extraordinary way he did it. He brought so much energy, emotion, and magic to the night, and we truly cannot imagine our wedding without him. He was absolutely incredible!”

“What an amazing experience working with Joey. He was very thoughtful in curating the music for our day and I hope you find what you are looking for with him. I am a wedding vendor of 15 years as well doing hair, makeup and morning concierge. One of my past brides at one of my most favorite venues to work at is how I was introduced to Joey. After coming out of the hair room I love taking a moment to walk around the venue and there he was playing the cello along with some background music. I was hooked. I love that he was incorporating songs of today with the art of an instrument. I found it unique and something I wanted to showcase at my wedding. I didn’t want people to walk up to just music playing in the space, but an experience. Joey took the time to do 2 calls with us, one being over the phone and the second being over zoom. He came with a detailed questionnaire of how we wanted our wedding to go. It was so detailed that even a music mood girl I didn’t even think of. The calls were scheduled for 30 minutes but he didn’t hesitate to chat with me for over an hour on how I wanted it to be curated. I had already started 2 wedding playlists, but he added and sent me 5 to 6 albums to fill out of songs I loved and wanted. I had over 10 hours of music to play and not only did he take those into consideration he added music that my guests also requested. He even accepted me saying change this song and only play the 10 year olds music every 10 songs He needed to set up in two spaces, one for the ceremony which was outside on our property. He was set up and playing by the time guests arrived. Everyone I spoke with loved the music selection, which I told him “Bridgerton vibes” and he ran with it. After the ceremony his assistant had music playing for the cocktail hour while they broke down the equipment in the ceremony area. I was blown away by the lights that were brought and the look of everything. Microphones worked for speeches and he even had a stand for those who wanted to use them. We didn’t do a traditional walk in but he announced us perfectly and we ran around the tables saying hello to our friends and family. I would recommend Joey to anyone looking to have an experience for their guests, have a DJ but also want strings all in one. He was professional, timely and for someone who did not have a day of coordination or planner very informative. I wanted vendors to do what they do best and I’m glad I trusted him to provide us with music throughout the day and night!”

Brazenn, DJ & Entertainment services 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Talkeetna, AK for additional fees

Originally from Alaska, I moved to Colorado in 2026 for more opportunities, however still take bookings back home. I have residency’s at 4 bars/clubs in AK and CO, I’ve worked for 3 different wedding companies, and currently work for Wedgwood which is the largest wedding company in the US. I’ve had my own company since 2023, and have done everything from classy to trashy✨. Personally love to DJ, plan weddings, fly planes and build aircraft. If it has wings I’ve either flown or built it.

“I seriously can’t say enough good things about having Brayden as our DJ! We knew before we were even engaged that we wanted him for our wedding. We had seen him DJ other weddings and events and were always sooo impressed. I’ve been to plenty of weddings, but he was the first DJ that made me think yep, one day this is our guy Brayden was so much more than just our DJ. He helped guide the whole day, kept things flowing, engaged the crowd & made sure we never had to worry about what was happening next. We knew we could completely trust him and that took such a huge weight off our shoulders! I am also VERYYYY picky when it comes to music, aesthetics & vibes, so I definitely had a vision for how I wanted everything to feel. To me, music is so special to me and sets the vibe for the whole day. it’s so important to find someone who understands what you want. Somehow he took our vision and made it even better than I could’ve expected. The music was AMAZING. He didn’t just play songs one after another, everything flowed together so seamlessly. His transitions were so cool and had this subtle EDM feel at times without being overdone or taking away from the songs. He also knew exactly how to read the room. There was something for every age group and somehow it all went together perfectly. Everyone was having an absolute blast, dancing and having the best time. we still have people telling us how much fun they had and how great our DJ was! Brayden is so fun while still being professional, kind and easy to work with. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does and has a talent for it that not everyone has. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect and he was such a huge part of that. We would choose him again a million times over! I’m looking forward to seeing all that he does in the future!”

  • DJ
  • Serves Talkeetna, AK for additional fees

Born and raised in the Metro Detroit area. DJ iamchase is not just the #1 Celebrity Dj in West Michigan. He is also a Tour Dj, Record Breaker, and a Host. All while DJing Weddings, Corporate events, Concerts, and Night Clubs.

“We had Terrell as our DJ for our wedding and could not be more happy with him! It was a little nerve racking having a meeting so close to the big day but Terrell and Derek both made us feel comfortable that everything would go smoothly. On the day of the wedding Terrell was at a venue he has never worked at before but set up and communication was seamless. He kept the party going and had the dance floor packed all night (one of the most important things for us that night). We didn't give him a playlist; just more like some guidelines and he did an amazing job. He came up to me and my husband to ensure we were happy (and even fed!). He communicated with me and the photographer to ensure all the big moments were captured before the photographer had to leave which was so nice because the thought to do that had not even occurred to me. We can not wait to recommend them more to anyone getting married or throwing an event. Thank you so much Terrell and Derek!!!!”
