There's nothing I love more than a great song, a dance floor, and a reason to celebrate. I've been involved with music for pretty much my entire life and the passion that I have for creating moments and memories through music is unmatched. I work personally with each of my couples to make their weddings amazing, and I'm fortunate that I get to do this each and every weekend.

Brendan was a dream addition to our wedding vendor team. We felt confident from the start knowing his extensive experience at our venue and as a radio DJ. Brendan was quick to respond to all of our questions and communications, which certainly put us at ease during the planning process. He proved to be a talented and knowledgeable musician and DJ as his ideas for the music and flow of the day were spot on. The highlight of our day was when Brendan played the piano during our cocktail hour. Our guests loved it! Brendan's mobile app was also very useful as we made selections for the day-of music, and he seemed to know our venue, Glen Manor House, better than anyone else on our vendor team. The day flowed perfectly thanks to Brendan's expert timing and seamless transitions. His energy perfectly fit what we were looking for in a DJ and we were so glad to have him on our team! We highly recommend B-Sharp Entertainment for any couple looking for a top-tier DJ who will make their wedding day special, especially those getting married at Glen Manor!

Larger Than Life Entertainment aka DJ BrianD Is Your Versatile DJ 4 All Occasions!! 18+ Years In The Wedding, Corporate Event, & Private Party Industry & 27+ Years From Spinning Wax 2 CD’s 2 MP3’s!!! Book Your FREE Consultation Now & Let’s Bring How You Envision Your Event To Life!!!

Brian is one of the best wedding DJs in the business. In the past two years I’ve been to eight different weddings. Brian was the DJ for three of the eight, and the party/reception component of the events was never more fun than when Brian was driving the bus. He is an east coast DJ, but he spun tracks at both of my sister-in-laws’ weddings and as we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding we reached out just to see what he would charge for a wedding in Chicago. Turns out the price was right. Brian traveled to Chicago, MC’d our entire wedding, brought all of the equipment necessary and made our day exceptional in every way. I think there are a few things that really set Brian apart from other wedding DJs. Anyone can stand there and run through a playlist, but Brian went off book a few times to match and capture the energy of the guests. As we were in the midst of the planning process he added zero stress, and just calmly walked us through the process of selecting songs. He had suggestions and recommendations along the way. He even brought an extra speaker so that we could plug our digital piano in and the pianist would be able to play loudly enough. Overall, we can’t recommend Brian highly enough. You will not regret choosing him to DJ at your wedding, party, event. Whatever it is, Brian is a huge value add and a pleasure to work with.

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Shane with Mercier Music Weddings and Events was the consummate professional for our wedding entertainment. His communication throughout the planning process was personal, prompt and respectful, making us feel like valued clients. The sound quality and song selection the day-of was excellent. Shane interacted with our guests and could read the room, knowing just when to transition the music from our first dance into the next activity. He kept the style of music going that appealed to all our guests, from young to old. Shane's ability to read the room and keep all age groups engaged really made for an interactive and fun reception.

  • Serves Johnston, RI

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had some strong opinions about the music that should be played at our wedding - for example, no classic wedding songs or oldies. We asked Graeme to cater to the younger crew at our wedding (70% of our wedding guests were 35 or younger) and he delivered. Once we opened the dance floor I never saw anyone sitting down again for the rest of the night. The tent rental company had told me that the dance floor I wanted to rent was much larger then needed for our weddings size but Graeme was able to keep it full and even over flowing all night long. He knows how to throw a party! In addition we had an outdoor ceremony and even though the wedding wasn't particularity large (98 guests) the space he needed to make music & sound work for was very large and far away from an electrical source. Graeme worked directly with my venue to ensure he had everything he needed to make the day go off without a hitch.

My style is about my bride and groom having a good time and creating an atmosphere for their guests to have fun by playing and mixing great music. As a an experienced DJ I know how to read the crowd and play the right music at the right time to keep the dance floor moving. I will keep the DJ “chatter” to a minimum to be sure not to steal the spotlight. I take a completely modern approach, using my extensive knowledge of music formats and appropriate Emcee skills to move a dance floor.

DJ Sidney was amazing to work with! He perfectly nailed the vibe of our wedding and kept people dancing all night. My partner and I have very different music tastes and were bringing together two different cultures so keeping everyone happy wasn't going to be easy. Everybody had fun dancing the night away and he helped keep the night running. I know that a great DJ can really make a party and DJ Sidney was a great DJ!

The online planning forms made it easy to plan out our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We had several specific requests that DJ Rick was able to accommodate. We wanted classic rock for the majority of our cocktail hour and created a list of artists for Rick to work from which he played the perfect set. The music was a true reflection of us which is exactly what we wanted. We had a great time dancing the night away with our family and friends. The uplighting was beautiful and helped enhance our venue. The photo booth was worth every penny, our guests could not get enough of it! We would highly recommend Arpeggio if music is important to you! The entertainment can make or break your wedding and Arpeggio knocked it out of the park and we still have guests talking about how much fun they had at our wedding!

Congratulations! You're probably recently engaged, or you know someone who is, and you're looking for a killer band for your once-in-a-lifetime celebration. Clockwork will make your wedding truly spectacular. Not only will all of your friends and family be on the dance floor the entire night, but you will be showered with compliments about how awesome the band is and how much fun they’re having. And this will continue for weeks and months after your wedding!

Clockwork Boston stole the evening and our guests could not stop telling us how good they were. They know how to have a party, and despite many folks leaving our Sunday evening wedding a little early, the vibes were incredible all the way to the final song. I never left the dance floor, and glad I didn't! One piece of advice, we wish we chose more swing/oldie/calmer dance music for the DJ break in between sets. Just a suggestion for any future couples to be!

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures.

SpeechLess provides a complete professional approach to formalities & emceeing while simultaneously bringing style, energy and personality to your event. The group combines experience with inspiration and improvisation; every performance is different, always fun, funky and fresh.

Speechless was the perfect wedding entertainment for our special day. Scott, the owner, and Mari, the coordinator were excellent communicators and were organized, efficient, and friendly throughout the entire planning process. The quality of their work and the value they provided was exceptional - they were professional, fun to work with, and incredibly talented. Their music went perfectly with the laidback, joyful vibe we were going for, and Tashane, our DJ kept the dance floor full all night long. Tashane was very responsive, flexible, and read the mood of our guests perfectly, and ensured we had the wedding day we envisioned. We couldn't have asked for a better entertainment experience to make our wedding celebration complete.

Joe and his team were incredible! All of our guests are STILL talking about how great Joe was - he picked perfect songs that were a hit with our crowd across generations and included some of our all time favorites as well. We gave him a few do not plays and just a couple must plays, but he handled the rest perfectly!! Fine Tune Entertainment has an easy to use planning website, where we were able to edit our timeline and song choices throughout the process - this helped keep everything super organized. Joe was excellent at keeping the schedule moving with speeches, photos and dancing. We also used Fine Tune Entertainment's sister company for the photo booth which was incredibly high quality and a major HIT with our guests. They had the option to get digital copies or take home a printed one! We added 10 up lights to our space as well and Joe perfectly managed color changes to enhance the party vibe. We highly recommend Joe & Fine Tune Entertainment to couples in the Boston/MA area because of the incredible music played, the calm demeanor and excellent communication throughout the process! Definitely add the photo booth if you can, it was so worth it :)

We could rave about DJ Thrilla all day long, but in the words of our wedding guests: “Best dance floor we’ve seen in a long time!” It’s been weeks since our wedding and our guests can’t stop talking about how great the music was. Arthur did a great job with the ceremony and cocktail hour, and managed a tricky parent dance section (multiple sets of parents & timing!) We requested a Taylor Swift mashup and he exceeded expectations and made it the highlight of our night. The dance floor was always packed, and Arthur did a great job of taking into account our requests while playing music everyone would enjoy. We opted to use uplighting as well, which looked beautiful during dinner (we chose a warm lighting) and was so fun for the dance floor with flashing lights. By the end of the night, he even had guests asking him to travel to Texas to DJ their wedding! Booking DJ Thrilla was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our wedding and we could not recommend him more!

I recently had the pleasure of using Dash of Class Platinum for my wedding, and I can confidently say they are a five-star company!

Not a single hiccup occurred throughout the night, reflecting their level of class and respect for their craft. It's rare to find a DJ and entertainment company that operates with such seamless precision. They had our guests on the dance floor the entire night. The music was fantastic, the lights around the room were done perfectly and the dancing on the clouds made the pictures look like a dream What stood out most was their approachability. They were incredibly easy to talk to, and my wife had zero problems making last-minute changes – they handled it with ease and a smile. The MC checked on us throughout the night ensuring that we were always happy and asking if there was anything we needed or wanted to change.

Atlantic Shake 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Johnston, RI

Ready to Shake Things Up? Atlantic Shake will dazzle your guests and keep them dancing all night long with an incredible setlist that spans multiple decades and genres. These powerhouse performers are also professionally trained to keep your event running smoothly from start to finish, so you can truly focus on enjoying your special day.

Atlantic Shake was hands down the best band I've ever experienced at a wedding -- and we still have so many of our guests telling us the same thing 2 weeks after the fact. Our dance floor was absolutely electric, and the crowd did not want to leave even after Atlantic Shake's encore performance. Not only did they *make* the party at our reception (and took care of the dance floor lighting!), but they also provided live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. And the band managers themselves, Nick and Rebecca, were hugely helpful in the entire planning process -- We left every call more energized and excited for our wedding than when we'd started (which was definitely not a typical experience for vendor calls leading up to the wedding!). Could not recommend them more highly!!

We booked Collins Entertainment for our October wedding at the Interlaken Inn in Lakeville, CT. We had an unbelievably amazing experience with this company from the top to the bottom. Our DJ, Jared, was exceptional with music selection, a master emcee, was accommodating and seemed to be everywhere at once. My guests left saying he was the best DJ they've ever seen at a wedding for how many hits he put out. He was able to read the crowd really well, and knew how to get everyone on the dance floor. Jared had battery-powered setups for both the ceremony and reception, so we didn't have to worry about outlets in a remote area outdoors, which was very nice. Our planning sessions with Jim, Mitch, and Jared were comprehensive and they gave us all the tools we needed to succeed. The package price was very reasonable too, and was a leading factor for why we chose them as well. We used their mirror photo booth as well, which was very fun. The mirror booth even came with a long red carpet! The operator, Randall, was very accommodating and helpful with guests, making it fun and easy for everyone. We highly recommend Collins Entertainment!
