Doug and Andrew made the best team at our wedding! We met Doug at a bridal show a year and a half before our wedding and liked him immediately. He really wants to help you create a wedding that is special and meaningful to you - not a cookie-cutter wedding with package after package he's trying to upsell you on. We were delighted when Doug told us that his partner, Andrew, was moving back to the area and would be working with him at our wedding. Doug talked with us several times throughout our planning process to help us think through the reception - specifically the flow and the feeling of each moment. At our final detail meeting, Doug and Andrew helped us finalize and ramp up some ideas we had been working on (rating speeches using giant numbers that the bridal party held up, us-themed bar trivia during dinner, kiss cam instead of traditional glass-clinking kisses) and also gave us options to add on his Freedom Sticks (party lighting to help make the room/dance floor fun) and several Polaroid cameras and a book to store the pictures in. We took advantage of both and were so happy we did! On the day of the event, Doug took the role of MC and walking around the room to get pictures of people/get everyone involved and Andrew took on the role of primary DJ. Together, they were such a fun team that really brought the party to life! We had SO MANY compliments on how fun they were and I have recommended them to all of my friends with upcoming weddings!! They perfectly matched our vibe to the music and worked hard to make sure that everyone had a great time. If you're looking for a DJ that cares about you as a couple and can bring the party, look no further!

Kevin from Smilestone DJ Services was absolutely amazing for our wedding! He played all the perfect songs, kept the dance floor packed all night, and created such an incredible atmosphere. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music and energy were. Kevin was also incredibly friendly and made the whole process stress-free for us, which was a huge help on such a big day. One of the highlights of the night was his unique ‘4 Levels of Hype’—each level brought a whole new wave of energy and excitement that took our celebration to the next level. To top it all off, Kevin gave me (the groom) a moment I’ll never forget. He handed over the DJ equipment and let me play a couple of songs! Seeing all my friends pull out their phones and cheer me on was incredible—I felt like a celebrity in my own wedding! The quality of his service was impeccable, and we couldn’t be happier. Several of our friends are already talking about booking him for their own events! We can’t thank Kevin enough for making our wedding so unforgettable.

I can't say enough great things about Funk Almighty! We had Funk Almighty play at our wedding and they were easily the highlight of the night. The energy, song selection, and sheer talent were unbelievable! Daryl, the band manager, is highly communicative and helped tailor music for every aspect of our day; we had an acoustic guitar for our ceremony, a jazz ensemble for cocktail hour, and their 10-person band for the reception. We also used Funk Almighty's MC service for the evening and Jared did a fantastic job ensuring the events stayed on schedule. What sets Funk Almighty apart from other bands is their energy, they had everyone on the dance floor! Our guests raved about the music and I can confidently say they were right, Funk Almighty is the best!

We LOVED the music Matt played at our wedding party. He was seamless is transitioning genres from when the party first started to end of the night. I had SO many friends at the party come up and say they were loving the music. Best part was he didn't play a single one of those classic wedding anthem songs that everyone has heard a million times (which was our worry). He nailed it, couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special night.
