DNA Premium Event Services LLC 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Merkel, TX

The DNA difference truly is our unique – boutique influenced approach to event design, without using outdated techniques, cheesy interaction skits, pre-set playlists or shiny blow up props at our functions. DNA Premium Event Services was created and managed by real DJs, with solid history in the nightlife, remix production and radio mixshow industry areas, who are incredibly creative, talented, passionate and of course dynamic. For us… every event is very different, and we truly believe that you deserve a unique experience that reflects your style, your tastes and what you envision as perfect.

Nate took on so many roles throughout the entire evening for my wedding on 11/20/20. One in particular was helping us find the bustle to my wife’s wedding dress. Nate noticed us having trouble finding the bustle to pin her dress up and stepped right in and took over without any hesitation. Something he didn’t have to do, but saw an opportunity to help and did it any way. Nate is one of the most relatable and professional guys you will ever met when finding a DJ for your event. Nate gives this genuine connection that makes you feel comfortable from the first moment you speak with him. He’s knowledgeable, patient, and will keep you on task leading up to your event to ensure your night is nothing short of amazing. Nate offers so many fun and creative services that you simply cannot find in many DJs. I strongly believe that my wedding night wouldn’t have been as amazing if Nate wasn’t involved. Nate brought the HEAT and kept the party on its feet from beginning to end! I truly wish I could relive my Wedding Day, but happy that Nate made it memorable for my wife and I to cherish for the rest of our lives. Nate, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment has musical ensembles that range from a soloist to a 15 piece party band, and everything in between!

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.

Felix & Fingers was the best addition to my wedding! We had a BLAST. It’s the best mix between a live band and sing along karaoke (but you don’t want your uncle to get the mic, you know?). They did beautiful ceremony music, incredible sax jazz during cocktail hour to keep it classy. Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!

GDG Elevated Events 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

Founder of GDG and a top-rated DJ/MC in Texas for years, Gabriel lives to help make every special event special. Whether creating a timeline with a couple for their big day, hosting a specialty game with guests, or breaking out the jams at a company party, enhancing each guest's experience is his #1 passion.

Awarded Best of Zola
I want to start off by saying that Gabriel was singlehandedly the most impactful person I worked with throughout my entire wedding planning process, and having a DJ provide that level of value completely defied my expectations. But, GDG Elevated Events provides much more than your typical DJ services. Not only does Gabriel have such an encouraging and personable attitude, but he utilizes a custom planning app that went way beyond planning the soundtrack for the day. I was able to really conceptualize the flow of my wedding and determine what schedule felt most authentic to me and my husband's vision, while also deciding what song(s) I wanted to play during each moment! Gabriel was not able to DJ my wedding due to already being committed to another, but who he sent in his stead, James, was full of positive energy and did a great job being the emcee and DJ for the best day of my life. The sound quality was great, the white DJ booth was classy, and James kept everyone dancing right up until the last minute. I really couldn't recommend GDG Elevated Events more!!

DJ Phil Does It 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,200
  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

I'm an event DJ serving Central Texas with more than 18 years of experience rocking parties. I love taking requests and work long hours to custom tailor music selections to the mood of my clients' events. I bring all of my own gear so, if you give me a power outlet, I can start a dance party. I also MC receptions and can run sound and microphones for ceremonies and presentations.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJing a wedding without a planner or a day-of coordinator is hectic even not in a pandemic, and Phil had to deal with a LOT of changes and uncertainties on a hot and humid Austin springtime day, but he kept his cool and was so incredibly polite and willing to adapt to anything we needed. It was immense fun working with him to pick music and talk through our plans. Phil has a good sense of humor, great taste in music, and he worked with us to make our eclectic music choices come together perfectly. My only regret was having to turn in for the night- I wish we could have kept listening and dancing for hours! If you don't pick Phil for your event you are missing out on a really good time.

Sanchez Entertainment 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

My name is Rogelio (Roger) Sanchez aka DJ Konkocshun. It all began while in H.S., a buddy of mine (I consider him my brother) was a DJ and I used to tag along and even help him mix some tracks. After H.S. I joined the Marine Corps and after several years, I continued to get the itch of mixing music and missed playing on the turntables. After an experience we had with another DJ for a personal event, I decided to give it a go. I love mixing different genres of music and the excitement of people enjoying themselves while on the dance floor or bobbing their heads in their seats. I practice my craft daily to present a beautiful experience.

Awarded Best of Zola
Roger was amazing to work with! He arrived early to set up his equipment and he was even a huge help with offering his wife’s make up services when my brides makeup artist didn’t show. Roger kept the music fun and upbeat for all the guest and he was so good at reading the crowd that the guest didn’t wanna leave. Hands down a great DJ and I hope to work with him again soon!

  • Serves Merkel, TX for additional fees

We are a family run DJ and Entertainment company that has a passion for weddings and events. We customize each event to the couples preferences, we offer flat rate pricing without additional costs for lighting, hourly fees, etc..

Dale was recommended by an acquaintance so we called him up about our wedding reception. He set up a zoom call to meet us and hear how we wanted our party to go. He made some great suggestions based on his many years of DJ experience and also took our requests and made a very fun night for us. Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the mix of music he played. He knows how to get people to the dance floor! We also booked his wife, Halisen, to be our same-day coordinator, and I'm so glad we did! We didn't have to think about or worry about a thing! Together they kept us on track with photos, cake cutting, toasts and all other wedding receptions events. Our wedding and reception was so easy for us thanks to these two. They handled everything and made it so much fun!

Awarded Best of Zola
Words can’t begin to describe how amazing this band was. When we hired them after a recommendation/commendation from another couple who called Blind Date the highlight of their wedding, we thought maybe they were being hyperbolic, but we knew at least the band would be good enough for a good time. Never in my life could I have imagined a band was capable of being as great as they were. From the beautiful jazz dinner set (it felt like I was listening to the jazz greats themselves), to the best two hours of dancing I’ve ever enjoyed in my life, Blind Date blew us away. Every single guest commented on how great they were. They were beyond fantastic and we can’t thank them enough for making our wedding so perfect. They brought us on stage for the MOST electric moments of the whole wedding--I felt like I was doing my own Vegas residency show. The LIGHT setup they bring themselves made the whole thing feel like a rock concert. It was the best day of my entire life and I can't imagine having a different band. I want to become a groupie for this band and start crashing other weddings they're playing at. BOOK THIS BAND! Their set list is PHENOMENAL, they learned a new song for our first dance and BLEW US OUT OF THE WATER with it. Everything was perfect. We're going to be talking about this band for as long as we're talking about our wedding. I am so beyond glad a referral from a couple we trusted turned into booking the best wedding band in the world.

High Fidelity has been playing weddings in Texas and beyond for over 8 years! With 2 Grammy nominees in the band, this is a group that always delivers and keeps your guests on the dance floor! We emcee, provide all the sound and lighting, and love what we do!

Perfection. Simply put, this band is THE band you want to book for any and all of your gatherings. Stop looking now. Book them. No, seriously. Stop looking and book them now before it's too late. The biggest no-brainer of all-time. Lead singer is amazing. Horns are exceptional. Key board players, guitar, drummer. They are the best, bar none. We chose to have them play our first dance song, father-daughter dance and mother-son dance songs and it was the best decision ever. Thank you HIGH FIDELITY!
