Berkeley, CA
  • DJ

Awarded Best of Zola
Sutherland Entertainment was one of our vendors at our wedding this past weekend at the Brazilian Room in Berkeley, CA and we cannot say enough good things about Spencer! He was on the preferred list of vendors for this venue and we can see why. Spencer is detail oriented, professional and a great MC/ DJ. He has a variety of packages that offer AV, DJ-ing and even photo booth services. He is incredibly knowledgeable and we had zero mic feedback, great mic volume and clarity. He was able to read the crowd and kept the party going all night long! Before the wedding he made sure to send over a planning spreadsheet so he knew exactly what it was we wanted. He even helped put up some Chinese lanterns for us on the patio to really bring our vision to life. Day of, he checked in with us the whole day to make sure we were feeling good. We had a small issue with a table falling over and he was the first vendor to come over and reassure us that everything was going to be fine. Overall, Sutherland Entertainment is the DJ to beat and should be your first choice when looking for a full-service, awesome party.

Awarded Best of Zola
Krista was wonderful to work with on our wedding. She followed strict guidelines for the pandemic (social distancing, masks, sanitizing, etc) so we felt very comfortable. More importantly, her playing is top shelf. Checking out her website gives you an idea of her repertoire, which includes anything from classical to contemporary pop. However, hearing her play the harp live in person is truly beautiful, the website does not do her justice. She played perfectly and elegantly. Krista is professional, easy-to-work with, and cordial.

On our wedding day, everything went smoothly and was executed perfectly! Though we got caught up and busy, we were unable to talk to her and thank her for being present - we want everyone to know she was amazing! It was such a beautiful moment to have her play during cocktail hour as well. It was a calm setting and our guests enjoyed her as much as we did. Highly recommended!

Wow wow, the best experience we could've asked for. First off The Hook Club was absolutely awesome to communicate with and coordinate with. They were super responsive and professional but at the same time so laid back, we trusted them completely with their vision. They were great through the pandemic and made sure we all were on the same page. The musicians are so talented, we had live music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, right before my ceremony started they played a beautiful song I had requested. The cocktail hour was beautiful, the music was at a perfect volume where we all could hear and enjoy them but people could carry on in conversation. The reception was off the charts, everyone wouldn't stop talking about how awesome they were with the music choices. Ash the DJ was absolutely on point, read the room and the talented live musicians integrated with the DJ was perfect, we had never seen anything like it but it was better than we even imagined. Big thanks to Dan who checked in all the time and even followed up after the big day. This group was one of a kind, thank you all so much.

Michael Duke was our DJ/MC for our wedding at McCormick Ranch Golf Club. If I could give more than five stars I would. He made our entire wedding planning and wedding day experience so easy and fun. From the beginning, he was welcoming, professional, and great energy. We knew we wanted him to be our DJ the moment we had our first meeting. He organized everything perfectly and made sure to check in with us to make sure we were on the same page at all times. He did everything to make sure our day was going to flow perfectly. Wedding day was flawless. He managed to keep our wild bunch of 220 guests in order of where to go and what was happening next according to our timeline. He also managed to get and keep everyone on the dance floor. While we discussed what genres and specific songs we wanted prior to wedding day, he was able to take our suggestions and soar!

Modern Fairytale Wedding Harpist

Las Vegas, NV
  • Ceremony only
  • Starts at $900
  • Serves Hayward, CA for additional fees

Hi! I’m Kristie, and I play live harp music for wedding ceremonies in Las Vegas. I love playing for weddings because of the deep emotional connection I feel with couples and their families. My music helps bring families together, which is what it’s all about.

Awarded Best of Zola
Kristie was absolutely phenomenal in every single way. She was attentive to our different musical interests. We were by no means easy clients but Kristie delivered a setlist and performance that went above and beyond. At every step of the planning process she was communicative and open to suggestions. She sent us music she thought we might like just so we could review it and make an informed decision. Just incredible. The processional I had chosen for the ceremony was one of a kind and Kristie played it perfectly. Nearly all the music we requested was either fairly complex or required learning new repertoire entirely and Kristie did just that. We were so thrilled and happy with the results. All our guests and even our photographer were amazed we had a harpist and kept saying how wonderful she was. We got married in Death Valley National Park at a remote location in the park and Kristie brought her harp all the way out to us! I couldn’t have imagined today without her. Prior to the wedding I was an anxious mess and even though we were hundreds of miles away she provided encouragement over text. I felt confident knowing she would be the one performing for our wedding. She was an integral part of our day and I cannot recommend her enough! Our wedding was everything we had hoped and that is, in no small part, due to Kristie.
