The photographer, videographer, and photo booth was absolutely perfect and our guests had a blast! However, even after going through the work of submitting a Spotify play list and adding do not play songs or DJ played the wrong version of our first dance song (I checked and we had the correct version listed on our playlist we sent over), he also played songs from our do not play list to the point I, the bride, came over to ask if he had the wrong list. He admitted he was using songs from the do not play list as he was not paying attention. I would also like to note, though our wedding was more casual, our DJ was dressed in a sloppy manner. His shirt was half untucked from his pants, there were stains on his shirt and pants. Besides a few hiccups, direct Entertainment was wonderful to work with!

We worked with Francisco as our day-of wedding coordinator at the Josephine Butler Parks Center, and we cannot recommend him highly enough! From the moment we started working with him, he was incredibly thorough, organized, and clearly genuinely invested in making our wedding day as smooth and joyful as possible. In the months leading up to the wedding, Francisco helped walk us through the big checklist items for planning a wedding, ensuring we didn’t overlook a single detail while always being respectful of our choices and vision. His communication over email was always timely and clear, and our planning phone calls were always productive, efficient, and fun! One of the most valuable things he did was create a comprehensive vendor packet that centralized all final details—this was a game-changer! We didn’t have to worry about keeping track of updates or managing version control, as he seamlessly handled all communication and coordination with our vendors. His understanding of the venue layout, the timing with our photographer, and the logistics of transporting wedding items made the final decisions stress-free. We trusted him completely, and every detail turned out exactly as we’d hoped—or better! When it came time for the wedding weekend itself, Francisco expertly ran our rehearsal, navigating family dynamics with calm professionalism and making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident. On the wedding day, Francisco was a calm and reassuring presence, quietly in charge and gracefully keeping everything on track. As someone who’s very Type A and typically likes to stay on top of everything, I was amazed by how much I was able to relax and simply enjoy the day because I knew Francisco would be handling it all. Thanks to him, we could focus on celebrating with our loved ones, knowing everything was in the best hands. If you’re looking for someone who will bring warmth, expertise, and a true sense of calm to your wedding day, Francisco is your person. He made our wedding a dream come true, and we wouldn’t change a single thing. (Photos courtesy of Paperbird Photography!)

Awarded Best of Zola
We had both our ceremony and reception at the District Winery in early December. When we went to visit the winery, we both loved how unique the space was compared with other venues. It was not the traditional ballroom, high ceilings, chandeliers, rounds with tablecloths to the ground. It was warm, inviting, and rustic. Kat, our event manager, was assigned to us to execute our wedding. It was beyond helpful to have someone from the venue to assist. As the event got closer there were so many decisions to make, but Kat helped tremendously. One example was food - bride’s dad really wanted pasta, but it was not an option on the food menu. Kat discussed with the chef and made it a possibility. Although we did not end up adding pasta, the chef made a special plate for the bride’s dad (he was the only one who really wanted the pasta). Overall, we had a great experience from the bride and groom perspective, but also many of our guests commented on how nice of a venue and the quality of the food.

I am blessed to be married to the happiest person on earth (I am so serious), who just happens to double as my favorite person. She keeps me grounded and never fails to remind me how great she is.

It was great to work with Cesar. From the moment we had our introductory call with him, we were drawn in by his authenticity, humor and laid back energy. We knew he was a good fit for a day that we wanted to keep positive, low-stress, and focused. When it came time for him to give instructions for couple and family shoots, he was confident and cool. In fact, many of our guests went out of their way to share how impressed they were with Cesar. He did a great job capturing our daytime wedding despite the quick change from cloudy and rainy to a bright springtime sun. He struck the perfect balance of positioning himself well to get great shots without being conspicuous or obtrusive. I plan to hire Cesar for other events in the future and recommend that my friends do the same.

DJ Neal was absolutely amazing at our July wedding in Purcellville, VA! From start to finish, his communication was excellent—clear, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. Our venue had the ceremony site, cocktail hour, and reception all in three separate areas, and DJ Neal was more than accommodating with his setup. Everything transitioned seamlessly and without any stress for us. He truly went above and beyond with the lighting setup as well. It completely transformed the space and looked incredible—it added so much to the overall atmosphere of the reception and the pricing was very inexpensive. Compared to other DJs we considered, his package options were incredibly well-priced for the level of service and quality he delivered. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience and would highly recommend DJ Neal to anyone looking for a professional, talented, and reliable DJ for their event!
