Elegant Weddings With Nightlife Energy

Hey there! I’m an outgoing & fun boutique wedding DJ that works with a limited number of couples to fully customize the vibe of the wedding day to your style & personality, and help guests have more fun than they planned on, until the very last song! As a DJ, host, & party producer I guide you through the wedding music to make the entire process easy, delivering an engaging wedding experience through crowd interaction (no awkward moments ever), full music curation, and immersive sound & full-room lighting design. Plus, your guests might just think you hired Pitbull ;)

I offer one custom experience that covers everything you'll need; all top quality sound equipment, lighting, and much more for the entire wedding day, with no hourly time limits. I also offer a flexible deposit schedule, if your interested. Check out what past couples are saying in my reviews section!

    Just book him

    Marty Nightengale (also known in our house as “Mr. Worldwide”) was our wedding DJ and I genuinely cannot recommend him enough. From the beginning, Marty was SO responsive and SO organized. He uses an app where you can upload playlists and organize music, which made planning so much easier. I was also having a really hard time finding good versions of Brazilian songs because so many of them only had live recordings available, and Marty went above and beyond helping me track down recorded versions of every song I needed. He made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and took so much pressure off me. On the wedding day itself, the vibes were immaculate all night long. He read the crowd perfectly, kept people on the dance floor, made smooth transitions, handled announcements so well, and adapted instantly when we wanted to change things up. We originally planned to start our “trap hour” around 9:30, but I got that itch around 9:00 and Marty pivoted immediately. He also accommodated special requests, incorporated cultural music, handled last-minute changes, managed lighting, and just made us feel taken care of throughout the entire process. Our guests loved him too. The night honestly feels like a blur now, but I do remember leaving thinking, “wow... the energy was perfect all night.” If you're looking for a DJ who is organized, flexible, responsive, and knows how to create an amazing atmosphere, Marty is your guy.

    Amazing 1000/10

    Our DJ absolutely MADE our wedding. From the ceremony music to the last song of the night, everything was seamless, organized, and so much fun. The dance floor stayed packed all night long, and he did an amazing job reading the crowd and keeping the energy up. He sent us great recommendations ahead of time and made sure he knew our taste. He was professional, easy to work with, and helped everything flow perfectly throughout the evening. We received so many compliments from our guests about the music and atmosphere. If you want a DJ who keeps the party going and makes your wedding unforgettable, we highly recommend Marty!

    The perfect DJ

    Marty Nightengale was the DJ we needed for our wedding day. From our first conversation, he was detailed in his questions and got back to us quickly with everything we asked for. The app he used to communicate our "special moment" songs and set our preferences was easy to use. He really understood our musical taste and played exactly what we wanted to hear throughout the night. His energy kept our guests dancing and the transitions between each part of the event were flawless. He set the perfect mood for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception without us having to stress about it. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend him to any couple looking for a wonderful DJ.
