I truly cannot recommend them enough. I can confidently brag that we had the best wedding band I’ve ever heard. We saw them perform at another wedding and booked them in between sets they were so good. For ours, we had a 7 piece band perform for the reception and it was so incredible (Motown, funk, oldies, and pop). They brought great energy and the music was amazing. We got so many compliments from our guests. They also did the audio for the ceremony and cocktail hour (just recorded songs, not live) and MC’ed the whole event. It went so smoothly. We filled out an extensive form they have and then met to review the plan for the day. It went off perfectly and flowed so well. Definitely worth asking for Kelley the pianist because he’s also a great singer. My one note is we got a wireless mic for the ceremony and there was a little delay in the audio so it was a little disorienting to speak like there was an echo. It making reading vows a little hard. So I’d recommend either talking to them about that or going with a wired mic, maybe.

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!

We found Greg and BJ at a local bridal show. We talked with them and loved what they offered. We met with them a few weeks later, and felt very comfortable. We hired them for our ceremony and reception. At our meeting before the wedding, we filled out planners for everything I wanted to happen. The day of, the ceremony went great. They played music 30 minutes before for FREE! They put mics on the Pastor and my Groom Charles so we could be heard. The music was timed perfectly. In the reception they played easy jazz music during dinner. Our dances and cake cutting went without a hitch. They then started the dance music and we had a blast! The music sounded great, and was a wide range of music to include everybody of all ages. I would recommend them to everyone. They are very good at what they do.

DJ Demarkus and DeTayls Entertainment was a perfect DJ and emcee for our wedding. The communication was rapid and he had a great organizational app that kept us on track leading up to the big day. The Djing was better than I could've imagined - DJ Demarkus was extremely organized upfront, provided a fantastic emcee who hit all the important cues, and made amazing song choices that kept our dance floor alive all night long. He took our relatively small playlist and seamlessly transitioned between songs, making great in-the-moment choices that matched the energy of the crowd.

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!!

Weddings are a big deal. It is a celebration of you making an eternal commitment to the person that you love more than anything. You would go to the ends of the earth for them, just to make them happy. So why would you risk the celebration of that love on a bargain bin DJ? I have read the horror stories. Seen the Reddit posts. It would have been such a beautiful wedding, and amazing memory… if the DJ didn’t ruin the entire thing. With DJ Triplicate, what you receive is consummate professionalism. Service that goes above and beyond. One on one attention with time, care, and empathy. “Don’t let a cheap wedding DJ happen to you”

Dj Trey was a dream to work with! He was incredibly responsive from the start and corresponded back and forth as many times as it took to get everything perfect! He was understanding of our needs and our audience and it’s very apparent he loves what he does and has mastered his craft. We were so incredibly grateful for the professionalism, dedication to our big day, as well as the ability to make such beautiful decisions musically with our “more mature” set list. We would recommend him to anyone that needs assistance with a special event! We can’t thank you enough for giving such care to our marriage ceremony and reception. You were a pleasure to work with and good luck with your business venture!

New Orleans-based queer DJ specializing in LGBTQIA+ weddings. Locally serving New Orleans and Baton Rouge, also available for destination weddings! I'm here to make sure your wedding becomes the most unforgettable dance party your guests have ever been to 😎

I say this with the truest sincerity - our wedding reception would not have been the same without Warm Advice/Kendall. From the initial conversation to me changing up the timeline mid-party, Kendall was an absolute rockstar. It was super important to us to have queer/supportive vendors and we really hit the jackpot finding Warm Advice. I couldn’t imagine having another DJ vibing with us all night long. Ultimately, we had a few “hard nos” but otherwise mostly let Kendall do their thing and they absolutely killed it. The price point is unparalleled for the quality, professionalism, and creativity. I am quite certain this won’t be the last time we work with Kendall.
