We worked with Preston to get everything set up, and Trey was our DJ for the wedding. They handled music and emceeing for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. I was super impressed by how professional all my communication was with them and how easy everything was. Honestly, they were the easiest vendor that I worked with. They let you pick out and customize the music as much or little as you want. I had put together fairly extensive playlists that Trey had no problem going off of. I'd recommend them in a heartbeat if you're in the Savannah/Charleston area! All our guests had a blast dancing the night away!

It’s been seven months since DJ Spontaneous brought the house down at our wedding. He kept everyone from the introverts to my 90-year old aunt on the dance floor all night. But what is most impressive is the amount of weddings we have been to since ours where the other music vendors continue to pale in comparison to the magic that DJ Spontaneous was able to deliver. You’re making a mistake if you don’t go with him.

I wish that I could give Phil 10 stars for all his amazing work. I could tell he was going to be a great asset to our wedding day long before the actual day of the wedding. He communicated well with me in the days leading up to the wedding. He made sure that everything we wanted was accomplished. Phil was the perfect balance of professional and personable. We could not have hired a better man for the job. Our day-of timeline needed to be changed several times during our reception, but not once did Phil let us stress about it. He took the initiative to get with our photographers, and he is the whole reason our reception ran smoothly. It was very professional of him to recognize the need for someone to lead our vendors through the reception. I truly can’t say enough good about Phil. Several guests made it a point to tell us that our DJ was amazing and the best they’d ever seen at a wedding. He kept the reception light-hearted and fun. If you’re looking for the best DJ in Atlanta, you need to hire Phil. I guarantee he is the best around!!!! *on a side note, we had several very religious people attending our wedding, so per our request, Phil kept the reception free of explicit tracks. I was nervous about this because I wanted all guests to have a great time regardless of religious views. Phil found the fine line between both types of guests and made the reception enjoyable for everyone.

I cant believe I got so lucky to book NMC! Nick was the only DJ I talked to before booking, and he gave such a detailed proposal and even asked to meet via video conference that I was so confident in booking them. NMC was the CENTER of our entire wedding. The music was perfect, Nick even came to the dress rehearsal to make sure the timing felt right during the ceremony. I was hesitant to have a DJ for the ceremony, but I’m so glad we did! Every time we talk to guests from the wedding night, they mention how incredible the dance floor was for the reception too. It was truly the party we asked for, all thanks to NMC!!

There are not words to describe how much we loved having DJ Krystyle perform at our Aug 2024 wedding. She was very responsive, communicative, and has a super easy online portal that helps capture every detail you could think of for the event music. She’s also a lovely human in general to work with. We went with the approach of choosing the major songs and providing general recommendations around genres and let the expert handle the rest. We had multiple guests tell us they could not stop dancing or singing along the entire night. We had every age group on the dance floor. If it’s any indication - my photographer had to remind me a few times to stop bouncing around so she could get some good still shots. In our opinion, it doesn’t get any better than DJ Krystyle.

I asked her to create a mashup of Ed Sheeran songs for my ceremony and boy did she deliver. It was so amazing that I was able to use a portion of it for my phone ringtone! She is so professional, so talented, punctual, responsive (I know I’ve said it before but I can’t stress this enough) and makes you want to hire her for every single event you ever think of hosting. She can play ANYTHING, and will make your music dreams come true. BOOK HER! BOOK HER! BOOK HER! I guarantee you that you won’t regret it. I have recommended her to so many people and they have not been disappointed.

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 delivers with a bang! Their music will get people out of their chairs and on the dance floor!!! Chris is extremely easy to deal with, and very professional in his handing of events. Chris has been hired several times by clients, and they have always been extremely pleased. The last event they played at, the client extended their play time over two extra hours- and wanted to extend it longer! You can’t go wrong with a music experience with this band of amazing talented musicians!
