Sam from Dream Day Charleston is an awesome DJ! We found him as a recommendation from our planner who had all great things to say. We're so glad he was able to DJ for our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. From the start, Sam was responsive and personable. Dream Day Charleston's website and online music portal were great resources that helped us start the music planning process! Sam even provided playlists for pre-ceremony options, cocktail/dinner music, and reception songs for every type of music taste. Sam took time to meet with us before our event to walk us through the day and and help us nail down final song choices and details. He even helped us edit and cut down our first dance song. Execution on the wedding day was flawless. The ceremony was great, Sam made sure the officiant was properly mic'd, our speakers had microphones, and made upbeat announcements to keep our event progressing. DJ Sam got everyone out on the dance floor with his great mixes and was able to take requests. I would highly recommend Sam for any event! His energy, passion, and professionalism are off the charts.

Midnight City 

5.0

Charleston, SC
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $7,500

Full time musicians with years of experience, The Midnight City band brings energy and passion to each event. Playing a wide variety of music styles, the band keeps their set list updated and relevant with a mix of old school classics as well as newer hits sure to please any audience. In 2019, The Post and Courier named The Midnight City as Charleston's favorite cover band - this is a band sure to impress!

We were an out of town couple, planning a "destination" wedding and Midnight City came very highly recommended from our CHS wedding vendors, which was very important to us; they get to see ALL of the local entertainment! After reviewing a few demo videos, we knew we needed to book Midnight City immediately! Their diverse music portfolio and range of genres they can play is unmatchable and their ability to engage with a crowd is so impressive. They are a truly talented group, not just a (insert generic event here) cover band. The booking process and pre-wedding communication was very quick and seamless. They were very flexible when we added on ceremony music after the fact and executed everything flawlessly. We were able to highlight our must have songs, preferred songs, and our "do not play" list. Their energy was high and truly made us feel like we were at a concert vs. a wedding (which is just what we wanted). They amplified our entire experience. You will not be disappointed with this talented crew!!

All of our friends kept coming up to us during the reception just to say “this is THE BEST wedding DJ” they’ve ever heard, and we totally agree.

All of our guests from grandparents to little cousins got up to dance without it being cheesy - it felt just like the coolest party we could imagine. She was really responsive to all emails and text (even to some last minute questions and requests) and organized, and really took the time to get to know us so our wedding felt true to us. Even with a brief technical issue the venue had she kept super cool and relaxed, which helped my husband and I to stay cool and just enjoy our night! Definitely recommend DJ B!

I loved working with Holly and her team at Lowcountry Pianist for our wedding. We originally booked them for a harpist for our wedding ceremony, but during the two years of COVID madness and rescheduling, the harpist sadly ended up moving out of state and we were back to square one. I was initially stressed out about this, but Holly ended up making the entire experience really positive and stress-free. Holly was amazing during the entire process and worked with us to recommend a different musician and instrument, and took our custom song suggestions into account. With the craziness of planning (and changing, and replanning!) weddings, Holly made it stress free and I felt like we were working with a friend who had our best interest in mind. On top of it all, the rates were very competitive and allowed us to stay within our budget for music. If you’re looking for great communication, someone who is clearly passionate about music and her customers, and fantastic tunes for your event, I would highly recommend Lowcountry Pianist.

We could not recommend Park Place Entertainment enough. We found them in an effort to find an affordable DJ for our wedding. We feared we would have to sacrifice professionalism and quality for price, but then we found Park Place. From the beginning, Brian made everything clear, easy to understand, and easy to navigate. Using the app to set up our big day was easy, and it made us feel secure in knowing that everything would go to plan. The entire setup on our wedding day was so professional, and the music choices were perfect for the occasion. 100% recommend.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

We could not have found more talented and delightful DJs than Paige and Holly. They were so easy and fun to work with (hands down our favorite vendors) and they gave us such a joyful, perfect soundscape for our wedding. When we weren't sure what kind of music we wanted to play, Paige and Holly were both ready with suggestions and asked the perfect questions to get a feel for our music style. The questionnaire they shared with us was so helpful to me in getting an idea for how plan music at weddings and what decisions you want to think about along the way. Their warmth and energy were so comforting and uplifting to me as we planned everything (I'm a very anxious person and this made a HUGE difference to me 3). Holly and Paige both made us feel confident and supported in leaning in to our music preferences for all stages of the ceremony and reception, and they made everything so easy for us. We had so many friends and family tell us how much they loved the music and how well the songs blended together and flowed. I could not be happier that we had the privilege of working with these lovely humans and I cannot recommend them highly enough!
