We were thrilled with the service we received from Signature DJs for our wedding. Kellie was quick to respond to all of our questions and always ready to help, no matter how small the request. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and complimentary throughout the entire planning process. The Signed, Sealed, and Delivered package they offer included everything we were looking for - great planning and execution on the day, an awesome DJ, Meredith, who kept the dance floor packed from the ceremony audio to the end of the night, a fun and inclusive photo booth and sparkler exit, and even a personalized monogram. Kellie and her team were hardworking, organized, and determined to make our special day perfect. We had multiple calls with Kellie leading up to the ceremony, and she provided a detailed planning guide to assist with every small detail we may have forgotten.

AMAZING EXPERIENCE!! I can't say enough good things about Lance. He was great to work with leading up to the wedding and was very professional and responsive. On our actual wedding day, Lance went above and beyond, from showing up early to make sure everything was set up correctly, to recording our ceremony and first dance, and then staying until all the guests were out. We had a very high energy crew and he kept the party going the whole reception. The song transitions were 10/10. The day after our wedding we had multiple guests text us about how amazing our DJ was. We have also had 2 friends who are getting married next year reach out and ask for his contact information. I HIGHLY recommend!

DJ Anthony Bryant (aka DJ Ant-Boogie) was absolutely amazing and such an important part of our wedding experience. When planning a wedding, there are a million things to worry about. DJ Ant Boogie is not one of them. He was so nice and so patient and professional with us during the planning, and an absolute joy to work with during the actual wedding. We had such little direction for him and gave the most vague descriptions of our friends and ourselves and the general vibe and he crafted the most perfect wedding playlist I have ever heard. All night people were complimenting us on our amazing song choices (all DJ ant boogie) and the dance floor was alive literally all night. He also did such a wonderful job with all of our special requests and announcements and all the “scripted wedding stuff” that happens during a wedding. Everyone had such an amazing time and he was such an integral part of that. DJ Ant Boogie, thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We had a perfect night, and we are so grateful.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with The Hook Club. Our amazing planner, Greenhouse Events, recommended THC, and we were sold immediately after meeting with Dan. He is super relaxed, nice, and so knowledgable. Dan and THC team made planning super easy for us. They took time to hear about our hopes and helped recommend different band sizes for us. We hadn’t heard of a DJ band before, but loved the idea of some live music with the versatility to play all sorts of music, but our venue wasn’t very big and we also didn’t want to break the bank and hire a huge band. We chose the 4 piece DJ band with singer, sax, drums, and DJ. We knew we LOVED the sax, so we also had the sax play for cocktail hour (shout out to Elijah, who was amazing), and it was one of the best parts of the night. For planning music, they sent out a very detailed and thorough spreadsheet with more songs than one could imagine, and we could rate ones we liked the most, choose ones we definitely wanted or didn't, and choose specific songs for important moments. We met a couple times to review music choices as well. One of our biggest fears with a DJ was that they'd talk too much and be a little annoying, but Dan did a great job as MC, and was very low-key like we asked but announced important moments clearly. Dan and all the musicians had such great energy and got everyone on the dance floor. Our vocalist, Christen, was also amazing — her voice was spectacular, and she was such an amazing performer and got everyone involved in the music and dancing. So many people told us how much they loved the music and the energy, and had never heard of a DJ band but thought it was an amazing concept and the addition of live music over tracks added extra excitement and fun. THC also helped out with lighting (uplights and dance lights), and worked with our fantastic planner and the venue to help us decide the best setup. Ultimately, we loved working with THC. Their DJ-band setup is unique and adds so much variety to your music while allowing for some of the energy that comes from live performers. We danced the night away and had an absolute blast. 100% would recommend THC to anyone!

Ryan went above and beyond as our DJ. He helped organize the craziness of dinner before killing it on the table. The majority of our guests (we had a lot) either didn’t leave the dance floor or kept coming back! As the bride I only left to cool off then right back out to the best dancing songs he was playing. He narrated our guys vs girls flip cup game and even judged (girls won by default). All around an amazing job and I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a fun DJ who isn’t afraid to lend a hand and help get the job done, even if it’s a bit out of his job description. Thank you!

Marty was literally the best decision we made for our 5/18 wedding! From ceremony music to cocktail hour to an epic dance party reception he kept our guest engaged and having a blast all night! We added 1 hour of live music to our reception and cannot recommend that option enough it was so fun and interactive and got everyone out on the dance floor. I have received so many compliments on the "wedding DJ" and even have been asked by a few guests for his contact information for their own events. Thank you so much Marty! The Williams wedding loved you!

Josh and his team helped make our wedding dreams come true! He was prompt with responses and super helpful throughout the entire planning process. The app he uses to organize everything is super easy and makes things goes exactly as planned. We opted for all the add ons, cold sparklers, dancing on a cloud, intelligent lighting, the photo booth and the ceremony sound. It was so great to have everything streamlined by one person.

I've seen Grant play at various venues and can't recommend him highly enough! He's incredibly professional and thorough, tailoring his set and performance to the tone of the event and blending in seamlessly. He has a beautiful singing voice and creates a really impressive one man band effect using his looping setup to layer in all parts of the song live in front of you. It's pretty incredible to see how he builds the song real-time without any backing tracks or pre-recorded stuff. I would feel confident hiring him for anything from a small cocktail party to a full wedding reception. Grant is the best!

Sarah started playing harp for weddings in 2009 at the age of 14. She has loved playing at weddings, anniversary parties, rehearsal dinners, and elopements ever since. She effortlessly brings ambiance of every event she attends, creating a magical atmosphere with her music. Whether your dream wedding is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, Sarah will help bring your vision to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I am writing this review about Sarah. First of all, she was so great at being responsive which right off the bat was a big deal for me. Planning a wedding is stressful but during our first initial meet through Zoom I was immediately put at ease. Second, booking her was extremely easy and fairly priced. Thirdly, she was on time and I balled my eyes out walking down the aisle to beauty and the beast. I've never heard the harp in person and it was an experience I will never forget. She made my event elegant and elevated in all the right ways. If I ever have an excuse to bring Sarah back to another event, I WILL and will recommend her to anyone looking for calm, beautiful music for any event. Thank you thank you thank you Sarah!

We couldn’t have been happier with DJ D-Mac and his team for our wedding! The sound was absolutely perfect, creating the ideal atmosphere for our special day. He stuck closely to our playlist but also added in some fantastic songs that we hadn’t considered, which really set the mood and kept everyone dancing all night long. From the very beginning, he was extremely professional throughout the planning process, taking the time to understand our vision and preferences. This level of care continued on the night of the event, where he managed everything seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy our celebration. The dance floor was never empty—he had a real knack for reading the crowd and maintaining the energy. Our guests had a blast! One of our favorite highlights was the uplighting he provided. The color-changing effects were stunning and added an extra layer of excitement to the evening. Overall, we highly recommend him for any event! Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable!
