Awarded Best of Zola
When working with Laura and Levon, I received absolute professionalism. They honestly made me feel like I was their top client. The first call I made to Laura, she was so warm and inviting. They were so responsive and very well informing with every question I asked (I asked ALOT). She was clear and concise when she ran through the cost of everything. When I wanted to make additions later on, she was so amazing with meeting my needs and informed me of the cost after the initial quote. Laura was so wonderful when it came to my music selection as well. She provided me with a list of songs and had no issues when I asked for songs outside of their selected list. I was absolutely blown out of the park with how they handled one of my specific requests. I requested our exit song to be dance forever by Chris Brown. To get the full vibe of the song and to make sure my needs were met, she went out of her way to contact our DJ and asked him to play a track with their cello & violin so it would come out beautifully, and it did! I am still receiving complements from our guests about the joyous music from our wedding ceremony. I was told that there were lots of happy tears in the room once the music started. They contributed to my dream destination wedding in a HUGE way! I can’t brag enough about this duo because they go above and beyond for their clients.

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

James and his Born To DJ team were fantastic! They are so organized with their app and platform, making communication and details a breeze. All of our guests have continued to comment on how great the music was and what a wonderful job our DJ team did. We had quite a varied crowd at our wedding; different ages, different nationalities and lots of different genres. Somehow the DJ managed to please them all and I can honestly say our dance floor was never empty! We had a long, 7 hour, recepetion, and the DJ never missed a beat!

I’ve been playing music and entertaining for 20 years. Music has always made me happy ever since I was a little girl. I love doing things that are different and stand out from others.

For couples getting married, I will include a wedding playlist template for you to pick the songs/genres you would prefer me to play and it will help provide some structure from the start of your ceremony til the end of your reception. I will travel for a fee. I’m available weekends and weekdays.

Hello! I am a classically trained pianist who loves to play for weddings and events! I received my bachelors in piano and performance from Samford University. Let me help you set the perfect backdrop for your wedding ceremony!

Awarded Best of Zola
Olivia was so wonderful to work with! From finding her on wedding wire and sending my inquiry, she very quickly responded with availability and was so reliable! She responded to every email in less than a day from start to finish. This particularly stood out to me as many vendors I encountered were slow/non responsive. She arrived on time to the ceremony with her own supplies (small extra cost included in my total) and executed it all perfectly. She had to extend the processional song (I think??) due so slow grandparents walking but it was smooth and flawless. She played for a total of about 50 minutes. 30 minutes leading up to the ceremony, about 10 minutes of the ceremony, and 10 minutes afterwards. I would highly recommend Olivia for all of your event or wedding needs!

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.

Our Dj, Terrell, did a FANTASTIC job at our wedding. He announced everything well, communicated with our wedding coordinator and the other vendors, played our requested song list, and consistently checked in on my (new!) husband and I throughout the evening to see if there was anything that he could help us with. On our song list, we noted that we didn't want any country music played (unless it was a specifically requested song), and when one of our guests asked him to play 'Cotton Eye Joe', Terrell even came up to me and asked me if it was okay because he wasn't sure if I considered that country music! Overall, we are VERY happy with terrell! My husband and I would definitely recommend to other couples who are planning a wedding!

In college as I was working on my music degree I began to really understand the only way something can be great is if you commit to it. It was then when I first said these words to myself: 'For better or worse, I will make my life about making music.' That decision turned out for the better. Because 7 Sharp 9 is all that I do, I have put all of my focus on the music we play and the clients we entertain. We aim to give our couples more than they expect, and the reviews we have received show that we have done just that, consistently over the last several years.

7 Sharp 9 was incredible and made our wedding unforgettable! They are extremely professional, communicative, accommodating, and easy to work with. Chris did an amazing job performing acoustically for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and the band rocked our reception. They bring their own style to each song, and were eagerly willing to learn new songs for us. We continue to get compliments on how fun the band was, and we want to have another event just to hire them again! Highly recommend this talented crew!
