Jacksonville, FL
  • DJ
  • Starts at $750

I believe music is the backdrop to all our most memorable moments in life. I started DJing because my love of sharing music with those around me. My goal is to help make your special moments unforgettable.

DJ Sway's services were provided by a friend as a wedding gift. We established contact by email and then we had two or three phone discussions with me and my wife. We had a small wedding of about 70. He had a great selection of music. and played the participation dances we wanted. He kept things moving when things slowed down. We didn't do a lot of traditional things because we're an older couple but he actually helped explain things to me that I didn't know anything about I had no idea what a dollar dance was. And he helped me learn what was going to different things were common in today's weddings and helped us decide what we did or didn't want and payed attention to the things I did not want. No chicken dance!! Android working with him very much and would not hesitate to hire him again.

String Theory Music

Jacksonville, FL
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $400

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!

We cannot recommend DJ Eddie enough! He went above and beyond to help me execute a surprise for my husband during our ceremony, which involved playing a special song featuring the voice of his late mother. It was executed flawlessly and turned out to be one of my husband’s favorite moments of the entire day. As for the reception, the dance floor was never empty! Even family members who rarely dance were out there having a blast. So many guests told us, “The DJ was playing all the best tunes!” His song selections and transitions were perfect, keeping the energy high and everyone engaged. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, detail-oriented, and truly knows how to create unforgettable moments, look no further. They made our wedding absolutely magical! From the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception everything was perfect! Hope these sneak peaks from our photographer (Jacal productions) capture the magical moment and serve as proof of the amazing time we had on our big day.

We knew after the first meeting with Thomas he was going to be our DJ. He sat with us for an hour going over every step of what to expect for our wedding during our first meeting. We discussed entry, first dance, final dance, exits, and much much more. We booked him first before all other vendors, and I feel this initial meeting and brainstorm with him really laid the foundation for what else we needed for the wedding. After this meeting we put the deposit down as we knew he would have our backs. From then on, he called once a month just to check in. Some months we just a simple "hi" and others we did have things we wanted to review. He was awesome the whole entire process and day of everyone was loving the music. After the event, he sent many photos and videos he took, which was awesome because these were candid moments no one knew were being taken but also a snippet before we got anything from our photographer/videographer. I cannot recommend Thomas enough and say to any bride or groom out there that this will be money well spent to get a night you will always remember.
