From the moment we booked HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth, their communication was fast, easy, and personable. He was incredibly professional and went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. When we accidentally ordered the wrong sparklers, he made a miracle happen and got us some beautiful LED sparklers for our grand exit. And the music was absolutely perfect - our dance floor was so much fun all night long! We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. HiMotive truly delivered an outstanding value and we highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.

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!

Almost 4 months married and our friends still ask us about the best DJ ever, Marty Nightingale!! Marty is the best! We can't imagine our wedding day without Marty DJ'ing and MC'ing our event. He handled all audio from welcome drinks, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and nailed it at every stage. He set the vibe for each phase of the evening, and when it is time to dance, he brings the energy and gets the crowd going. He's great at reading the room and giving the dance floor what it needs. Besides throwing an amazing party, Marty was awesome to work with. He's personable and thorough. He was very attentive throughout the whole planning process and together we prepared everything from the general flow and vibe of the night down to the smaller details. He let us be involved as much or as little as we wanted. We don't know of a better wedding DJ. Maybe we're biased because he was our wedding DJ, but we don't think so. Marty is THE guy for your wedding!

Everything about this evening was intentional; from the menu to the music and Xavier and Aubry exceeded my expectations in capturing my vision.

"Raging dance party" is Maskell's style on the turntables; always beatmatching, mixing, and reading the crowd, while amplifying the atmosphere with a substantial, coordinated lighting show. Flat, all-inclusive rates. Huge lightshow included free. No travel fee up to 12hrs from DC when practical.

Awarded Best of Zola
Mark Maskell was absolutely incredible. Even though we had an all-inclusive venue, he was my one non-negotiable outside vendor from the very beginning. As someone who has been to a million weddings and genuinely loves music and going out, I hate cheesy wedding music and forced line dancing. Mark was the only DJ whose bio openly said that if you are looking for that vibe, he is not the DJ for you. That honesty alone sold me. From the start, Mark went far above and beyond what was included in our contract. He spent countless hours helping us curate our wedding timeline, reviewing my very Type A spreadsheets, and offering thoughtful guidance. He honestly felt more like a second wedding planner than just a DJ during the planning process. And the lights. The lighting setup and light show were unreal and completely elevated the entire experience. Mark truly curates the music and the atmosphere to you as a couple, not just a generic wedding crowd. On top of all that, he is just a genuinely wonderful human. Easy to connect with, great dark humor, ADHD energy that matched ours perfectly. He is someone I would happily hang out with on a random Tuesday. Our dance floor vibes were immaculate, and we were the only wedding I have ever attended that did not have a single technical issue on the DJ’s end. Truly flawless execution. 10/10 would recommend to literally anyone who wants their wedding to feel intentional, fun, and actually cool.

Joey was great all-around. He was super personable from the get-go which is one of the main reasons we chose him. We were doing a Halloween costume wedding and he was happy to dress up in a costume as well and be a part of it all. He had great suggestions before and during the event in regards to our playlists as well as interactions with the guests. He did an awesome job taking our song list and mixing it so that we got all the best parts of songs and moving from one to another before it felt too long or hit parts that were too long/repetitive. I'd definitely hire him again and we had multiple guests compliment him after the event. A.

More than 10 years ago, I had a friend who came to me and said, “Frank, you have a lot of music, a nice sound system and are not scared to speak in front of people. How about you DJ my wedding?” That pattern continued over the next 5-6 years, with more people asking me to DJ. That was the beginning of Prime Time Event Group. Since then, I’ve gone through extensive training and have DJed over 350 weddings and events. I love knowing that we make sure our clients’ wedding or event is not just a great memory, but an amazing experience that they will cherish forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could give Prime Time Event Group 6 stars, I would (and it still wouldn't be enough). Frank and his team kept our wedding reception on the dance floor all night, through not only a playlist of bangers but also an acute sense of what song to shift into if the previous one seemed a little lackluster with the crowd (which only happened once anyway). Working with him was so easy and he's so personable; he truly made us feel more excited about the wedding every time we talked. We will be recommending him to everybody we know getting married in the area! They're amazing!

JcZounds Sound & Lighting LLC was an excellent choice for our wedding. They were quick to respond to all of our questions and requests leading up to the big day. On the wedding day, the DJ was amazing and really watched the crowd to make sure everyone was having a great time. While we were having the reception and when I the bride walked off the dance floor, the music would change and every time I came back he would change the music back so we could all keep dancing. I plan on having JcZounds DJ my 30th birthday as well and I can't wait to see what we can do then as well. Overall, they were a huge part of making our wedding day perfect.

Hello! I'm Steve Anderson, Owner, DJ, and MC of Blendmasters Deejay Services LLC. I offer energetic music and entertainment for weddings across the Richmond area. Also, I love to get every guest onto the dance floor, bringing high energy and a passion for music to every event he has the pleasure of entertaining.

Our big day was October 11 and having the Blendmasters team there to help us celebrate was an experience! From the ceremony setup to cocktail hour and then the reception, everyone had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the music. We also had the 360 Photo Booth which was a hit with our guests! We definitely had the wedding of our dreams and Blendmasters DJ services did not disappoint. If you’re looking for a professional and “turn-up”, having everyone on the dance floor kind of experience, Blendmasters is the way to go!
