We were thrilled with the Bluewater Kings Band for our wedding! Owen was fantastic to work with - he was prompt, organized, and enthusiastic in his communication. We splurged on adding a sax player and were so glad we did - it really brought an extra layer of talent and fun. The band absolutely nailed our preferred musical vibe. As soon as the music started, the dance floor filled up and stayed packed all night long! The set list matched our taste perfectly. The band brought a highly professional yet fun energy that kept the party going. Their musicianship was top-notch and their song selection had something for all our guests to enjoy.

Cincinnati, OH
  • DJ

The Party Pleasers team is made up of over 25 DJs and Event Decorators that can fit any style of event. We look forward to discussing your event and help design a celebration that captures your unique vision.

Overall music selection and sound was great, maybe a little too loud a some points but that may also be due to speaker placement. There was an issue with the DJ going to the wrong site initially. Our venue had 3 ceremony/reception sites, and he set up across the street at one of the other sites. This caused a delay in set up, but our coordinator and site manger were able to help him. I don’t think he verified with anyone when he arrived that he was at the correct wedding before setting up. Ceremony music sound was great. Microphones were provided which was great so everyone could hear us and our officiant

The Link Ensemble 

5.0

Cincinnati, OH
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $850

Welcome to The Link Ensemble! My name is Madeline Jentsch, and I have been performing and studying music for over 14 years here in the United States, and abroad. Performance has always been an act of service, so I founded The Link Ensemble in hopes of bringing my most trusted colleagues together to provide personalized and unforgettable music for any and all weddings.

I hired Link Ensemble for my wedding and am so glad I did. They played for my ceremony- I'm a professional musician so I had lots of very specific asks for them! They handled all so well and played beautifully; it was one of the highlights of the day. I've since hired them to play for specialty events through Cincinnati Opera (I'm their Events Manager) and have always had such an easy collaboration. I would recommend them as your first choice, every time!

Kevin from Smilestone DJ Services was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He played all the perfect songs, kept the dance floor packed all night, and created such an incredible atmosphere. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music and energy were. Kevin was also incredibly friendly and made the whole process stress-free for us, which was a huge help on such a big day. One of the highlights of the night was his unique ‘4 Levels of Hype’—each level brought a whole new wave of energy and excitement that took our celebration to the next level. To top it all off, Kevin gave me (the groom) a moment I’ll never forget. He handed over the DJ equipment and let me play a couple of songs! Seeing all my friends pull out their phones and cheer me on was incredible—I felt like a celebrity in my own wedding! The quality of his service was impeccable, and we couldn’t be happier. Several of our friends are already talking about booking him for their own events! We can’t thank Kevin enough for making our wedding so unforgettable.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were SO HAPPY we chose Josh Staley Productions for our wedding! Once booked, we originally really connected with a DJ who relocated out of market in the middle of our planning process - Josh Staley swiftly informed us of the change and already had a fantastic solution in place, bumping us up to the top tier and reassigning us with one of their most premium DJs, Brian Daze - all at no additional cost or headache. The moment we met Brian, we knew this change was meant to be. While the official DJ of Ohio State and Columbus sports title really won over my wife and I as two massive sports fans, it was the type of person Brian was that truly made this such a collaborative, fun, and stress-free process. Brian is sweet, intentional, consultative, and best of all, knows how to bring the party! Our guests had so many incredible things to say about Brian after our wedding and we couldn’t have been happier to put our trust in him for a day we’ll never forget. Book Brian ASAP!!
