Chris and his team at Excellent Entertainment went above and beyond at our wedding! To say that they were professionals is an understatement. They were the best team that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Detailed, polite, friendly, professional and above all, AWESOME!

Chris and his team proved it, from the very beginning of contact with them to planning, our day and even after to follow up with us.

Thomas from Accent Sounds & Entertainment was the perfect choice for the musician at our wedding. From our initial consultation where he spent a generous amount of time walking through all aspects of our big day to ensure he understood our vision, to the flawless execution on the wedding day itself, Thomas was a consummate professional. His communication style throughout the planning process was attentive, organized, and focused on making sure we would have an amazing party. The music during the ceremony couldn't have gone more perfectly - as a nervous bride, I was put at ease knowing Thomas had everything under control. The reception was a blast as Thomas expertly read the vibe and kept guests pumped up and dancing all night long. His professionalism and obvious passion for bringing joy through music absolutely contributed to making our wedding day extraordinary.

First Class Entertainment is one of the Premier company serving the Tampa Bay area and the great state of Florida. Regardless of the size or type of event, we have assisted many clients in planning and coordinating their events.

I am absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Jerry the DJ and First Class Entertainment, who were nothing short of spectacular at our wedding. From start to finish, they exceeded our expectations in every way. The planning process with Jerry was seamless. He took the time to sit down with us and understand our vision, preferences, and any specific requests we had. His attention to detail was evident in every conversation, and he made sure that no aspect of our musical preferences was overlooked. He was always responsive, accommodating, and incredibly professional, making the entire planning phase stress-free. On the day of the wedding, Jerry and his team arrived well ahead of time to set up. The setup was flawless—sleek, modern, and perfectly suited to our venue. It was clear that they had a keen eye for detail and were committed to ensuring that everything was just right. When it came to the music, Jerry truly shone. Along with our playlist, he put together an incredible playlist that had something for everyone. From the elegant cocktail hour to the lively dance party, the transitions were smooth and the energy was electric. The dance floor was never empty. He read the crowd and adjusted the music accordingly, keeping everyone engaged and on their feet. The interaction with the guests was another highlight. Jerry wasn’t just a DJ; he was an entertainer who genuinely enjoyed making the event special. He took the time to engage with our guests, making announcements with charm and ensuring that everyone felt included and energized. His enthusiasm was infectious and added an extra layer of fun to the celebration. We received countless compliments on how fantastic the music was, how well Jerry had gauged the mood, and how the atmosphere was elevated by his presence. Many said it was the best wedding music they’d ever experienced, and we couldn’t agree more. In summary, Jerry the DJ and First Class Entertainment were essential to making our wedding day unforgettable. Their professionalism, exceptional planning, and ability to create an amazing atmosphere made the day perfect. If you’re looking for a DJ who will go above and beyond to ensure your event is a hit, look no further than Jerry and his team. They truly are first class in every sense of the word!

Awarded Best of Zola
Rachel and her partner made the perfect addition to our wedding. With a small 30-person wedding, we chose to have all instrumental music instead of a DJ. They played for our ceremony, first dances, and all throughout our cocktail hour and reception. Rachel was so fun and easy to work with. She was able to incorporate lyrical music with their instrumental music for our first dances, which was something we were specifically looking for. They played beautifully, and I would not make any changes. It was truly perfect. They were professional and kind. I would highly recommend Rachel and her partner if you are planning a wedding or event in the area!

aheProductions Entertainment 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

aheProductions Entertainment is one of the most demanded DJ companies in the Tampa Bay area. We were even just voted "Best Wedding DJ in Florida 2023" by Guide to Florida. We're a full service Event DJ Company specializing in weddings, parties & events. We are the only Tampa Bay area based DJ company that has a nationwide corporate production background, and it shows with our work and equipment, and most of all - attention to detail. We're all about the presentation. Clean and modern setups. No tacky "dot lights". No wires hanging everywhere. This attention to detail is why we're a preferred vendor at most of the local wedding venues.

Al & Mandy are true gems in the wedding industry! It was noticeable from the initial call with them both of how much they love their couples and also love what they do. Every detail that went into working with Al & Mandy was carefully thought out and allowed for lots of collaboration from beginning to end. Their planning dashboard is an organizer’s dream (aka MY dream) and so so easy to use. They were always accessible with any questions or concerns we had and on the day of the wedding, they consistently made sure that our needs were being met with what we wanted and also wanted us to have a blast. Their sound system - OH. MY. GOODNESS. We were in a three-story building and they were set up on the top floor; I could hear the bass from ‘Booty Werk’ by T-Pain all the way down on the first level and I diedddd. By far, the best sound system I’ve heard come from any DJ and that goes to show you (again) how much they care about what they put out. We also used their lighting package which really pulled the room & the vibe together. A favorite of our guests was their roaming photobooth - we got so many fun photos and GIFs from our guests & vendors that used it throughout the night and I love looking through the gallery to get a smile on my face and reminisce. Again, super amazing people and that took everything we gave them and crushed it! Safe to say, we’ve made friends for life with them!!

Beach Nights - Live Band & DJ Combo

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $8,500
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

You’ve seen wedding bands before. But you’ve never seen one like us. Our wedding nights are, in a word, unforgettable. We specialize in epic dance hits, teary-eyed singalongs, and everything in between. Book us for your event and you'll get our award-winning Boston Wedding Band & DJ combo, PLUS our professional sound and stage lighting system at one simple rate, with absolutely NO overtime charges. We travel all over New England and beyond, so when you’re ready for our industry-leading talent and a game-changing event package all at one affordable wedding band price, we’re ready to celebrate with you.

We are still on a high from the most fun night of our lives all thanks to BeachNights band, Chris and DJ Connor!!! If you want to have music at your wedding that everyone will be talking about for years to come, book BeachNights for your reception and the DJ combo for your other music needs (ceremony, cocktail hour, afterparty). Booking BeachNights for all our music needs was the best decision we made for our wedding day. BeachNights far exceeded our expectations. Chris is so professional, organized, and easy to work with. They have so much experience in all types of venues; you will be glad you have a band who knows exactly what they need to do to put on a seamless performance. They keep the music process worry-free so you can focus on other aspects of wedding planning. A piece of unsolicited advice if I may, book BeachNights for everything: ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, afterparty. It was so much easier being able to talk to ONE person and coordinate all music through ONE group rather than having 4 music vendors involved in the planning process. They take time to learn about you as a couple, your music wants and needs, likes and dislikes so that every single song is exactly what you want and how you pictured your music on your wedding day. THANK YOU Chris and team for making our wedding dreams come true!

Our Dj Rocks 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,575
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

We have rocked over 1,500 weddings and events! The biggest tip we have for choosing your DJ and MC is to make sure they match your personality and style. Do they get your vibe? Do they understand your event goals? When it comes to weddings, parties, or corporate events, we love making a personal connection with each of our clients. It’s what helps us create those unplanned moments.

We loved our entire experience with Our DJ Rocks. We found the online portal SO easy to use, and loved that there were song suggestions for each different category. We were pretty indecisive so we waited until the last minute to make a lot of our music choices, but in the end, having that system really made it a lot simpler than it could've been. When we were assigned Stasia, we were super excited! She seemed like a super fun person and we couldn't wait to get to know her. When we had our pre wedding phone call to go over all the final details, we were even more excited! Everything that we had doubts about or didn't have ideas for, she provided reassurance, suggestion, and inspiration. By the end of the call, we completely trusted that Stasia would do a phenomenal job as our DJ. The wedding music was absolutely perfect. From pre-ceremony to our exit song, Stasia was ON IT with our vibe, song choices, and timings. Everything flowed so well. I honestly can't say how nice it was to not be worried about guests having a good time. A lot of us didn't leave the dance floor the entire night! Her announcements to sign the guestbook and use the hashtag throughout the reception were so helpful and effective, too. We ended up with a guestbook globe full of signatures and well-wishes that we'll be proud to display in our home! We hear a lot of great things about our wedding in the weeks since. One of the things I hear a lot is how awesome our DJ was! My maid of honor loved the job she did so much, she actually booked her for her own wedding! And when she told me that one of the things she was stressed about wedding-planning wise was creating a wedding playlist, she was shocked when I told her we pretty much left it all up to Stasia! She really knows what works-when to use certain songs and how to keep the party going. Anyway, all in all, we couldn't be more pleased with our decision to book with Our DJ Rocks, and are so glad that we were blessed with Stasia as our DJ! We love her and can't wait to party with her at another wedding next year!

We love best in brass! As brass musicians ourselves, it was extremely important to us to have a brass quintet at our wedding. We found Best in Brass and after submitting an inquiry, they immediately called us and we knew we wanted to hire them. They were able to arrange all of the pieces we requested, and even used an arrangement we had made previously back in music school (and made it sound so much better!). We cannot recommend them enough! Everyone loved them, and they were extremely responsive, personable, and of course the most talented musicians. We'd work with them again in a heartbeat!

They have a large repertoire of music, a good mix of newer music and classics. It made selecting songs so easy and they have the option to learn new ones as well. I would absolutely recommend them and would book again!

String Theory Music 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

With over 20 years of experience, our network of professional musicians is dedicated to sharing our love of music with the community. Whether you're planning a wedding, private party, corporate event, recording session, or in need of orchestra or small ensemble music, we've got you covered. Let String Theory Music set the tone for your event with beautiful music that will create an unforgettable ambiance.

We booked String Theory's string quartet for our prelude, wedding ceremony, and cocktail hour, and they were hands-down one of my absolute favorite parts of our wedding day. I am honestly so overwhelmed with (positive) emotion when I think about what they added to our day that I don't even know where to start. As the bride, you're really running around a lot during the lead-up to your actual ceremony. We were kind of running late, so when we got to the venue itself I wasn't really focusing. Suddenly I realized I was hearing a string quartet playing, but they were executing the music I'd selected so flawlessly, I thought I was listening to a professional recording until I remembered that it was LIVE MUSIC played at MY WEDDING. I was absolutely blown away and the emotion of the day just hit me in that moment, and I genuinely believe it was enhanced by the strings! I did a private first look with my dad and they started playing music from Lord of the Rings that I'd selected and honestly it felt like I was in a movie. The emotion was that much more powerful and I still get emotional thinking about that moment. Our guests were absolutely raving about them as well, and in every video I've seen, they are playing often challenging pieces flawlessly. My ONE regret is that I did not get to sit and listen to them more, and like...what a regret to have! Allison was so wonderful, warm, professional, and lovely to work with. String Theory is the best and I am currently finding myself trying to plot events to book them for so I can personally experience more String Theory! Thank you so much to Allison and her team for making our wedding the stuff dreams are made of!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

StringKeeper is a Tampa based company ready to make your Florida wedding into the perfect day. We excel in every part of the creative process in order to make your vision become reality, and get your guests on the dancefloor!

I recently had my wedding at the Florida Aquarium and StringKeeper Entertainment gave me everything I wanted and so much more. Elijah is truely AMAZING!. We spoke to him multiple times beforehand, came up with a wedding list, went over a timeline of the wedding, and made sure he knew exactly what we wanted and didn't want. He arrived early to the wedding to make sure everything was set up in time and working properly. Music and Audio was perfect. He even helped my husband plan a surprise song for me which included a guitar. He had to improvise a couple times because my husband can't follow directions when we entered and went into our first dance, but it all went so smoothly that you would have thought it was planned. Throughout the night he made sure everyone was out there having fun. I appreciate all the time and work he put in to making sure we had a wonderful wedding. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!

J & D Productions

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,499
  • Serves Gainesville, FL

J & D Productions was started years ago entertaining guest at our home and after many of our friends and family telling us we should do this for a living, we finally decided to take their advice and many years later, and after performing in 11 states, we are now located in the wonderful Jacksonville Florida Area!

Hiring a DJ is more than just finding someone who can play music. Audio goes about a cell phone and speaker. It is an investment as important as the photographer and venue. The men behind J & D Productions are more than just a DJ and his assistant. They are entertainers, organizers and guides. They work hand in hand not only with their clients but also the vendors to insure you get the day of your dreams.

We booked Think Big to play at our wedding in Treasure Island, FL and we were absolutely blown away. They were such good musicians and played the absolute best music all night. All our guests are still talking about how good they were. Colin was so nice and so professional all throughout the booking process. They are one of the best bands I have ever seen. I would recommend them to anyone booking an event or just needing a good band. We danced all night long and they rocked so hard. We loved having them play at our wedding.
