Mark Addington Events

5.0

Mountain House, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Monterey, CA

I’m Mark Addington, owner, founder, emcee, DJ, public speaker, and most importantly…creative at heart. I started my DJ career over 20 years ago for fun and fell in love with it along the way. My goal is to make this choice a simple, informed and fun part of the wedding process. I’m here to communicate and plan pre-wedding so you and your guests can leave it all on the dancefloor the day of the wedding.

For starter, Mark was super helpful with everything from start to finish. We weren't sure of what direction we wanted to go and Mark made is so much easier by giving ideas and suggestions but was receptive of what me and my husband wanted. Being Indian, i wanted to make sure all my Jams were a part of the playlist and boy did Mark deliver!! EVERYTHING was mixed so perfectly. Made me so Happy! During the event Mark came thru. He was ready and on point with everything from dinner, first dance to cake cutting. I was able to relax because i knew Mark got it. As far as the dance floor he kept the party going. Overall not only did we love Mark but so did ALL of our guest.

I hired Jackie to sing at my wedding reception Dec 3rd 2022! When I heard some samples of her voice on YouTube, I knew she has was the one I wanted singing at my wedding!! She has a beautiful beautiful soulful voice that you can get lost in for days. Jackie was super flexible, shared her ideas and suggestions when I I didn't know what direction to go with songs ( wedding planning was stressful) but she made it easy to plan and make suggestions based on my song choices. I had her sing and play the piano for 3 different songs Father daughter dance, mother son dance, and cake cutting! Looking back, being someone who’s goal was to have more entertainment then speeches, id had her perform the whole time! Our guest raved about her voice, her performance, and how beautiful her renditions sounds. She was SO SO EASY TO WORK WITH.. With a wedding being crazy expensive.. She was accommodating to our budget! There’s no doubt I’d hire her again! She can sing anything! Love love love her

We had a beach ceremony and the equipment that was set up for the ceremony was loud enough for us hear the music and what people were saying on the mic even tho the ocean was really loud.

DJ P was a great choice to make our wedding reception unforgettable. From the moment we started working with him, we realized it was a partnership as we crafted the music for the night. He was willing and more than able to roll with things as plans changed. The one issue we had is that, partially due to the time constraints of our venue, some of our requested music was cut short or not played at all while other songs continued on for very long. Overall, DJ P did a phenomenal job!

Lucky Devils Band

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,020
  • Serves Monterey, CA

We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Lucky Devils are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. Reach out to get started! We also offer Photo-Video services!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding two years ago, we agreed right away that we both wanted a live band for the reception - it was the most important thing for both of us, as we knew we wanted that kind of energy in the room. As we researched bands (mostly through wedding-themed websites like Wedding Wire and The Knot), we came across the Lucky Devils Band and saw all of their good reviews. There are a lot of other bands you can find in and around Los Angeles, but they had one really big advantage that most other bands didn’t - regularly scheduled showcases where you could see them perform live. LDB were actually the first band we seriously considered, but we still did our due diligence and looked into a lot of other bands. We said to each other - we can’t just book the first band we find! Well, we ended up doing just that, and it was the best decision we made! Not only do they make it easy for couples to come see them live, they are also talented, professional, and truly affordable. Mike Smirnoff, the musician/producer who was our main point of contact was super responsive, friendly, and remembered us from early on (we ended up attending a lot of their showcases because we just enjoyed hearing them live!). The small downside to the band is that because they are essentially a collective, you won’t necessarily know which musicians will be playing on the day of your event, however, Mike took into account all of our specific requests for certain members we saw at each of their showcases, and he secured everyone that we had wanted. We had a six-piece band, which included two versatile musician/singers (Andrew on guitar & vocals, and Jason on keyboard and vocals) so we got the most bang for our buck. Kaitlyn was amazing on vocals, and Mark was killer on sax, with Dimitri on bass and Mike himself on drums rounding out the band. We got SO many compliments from our guests all night long - including from his parents, who are VERY picky about music, and from other friends who are composers/musicians themselves. Our wedding was in March, right as the pandemic panic was kicking into high gear - and we were very stressed about the cancellations and our own fears, but when the music started playing, we forgot about all of it and danced until we couldn’t feel our feet. We highly recommend the Lucky Devils Band to all couples!! Get yourselves to a showcase and see for yourselves how great they are!!

Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking.

When you are in that age where all of your friends are getting married you're always looking for ways to make your wedding stand out from the rest. We did our best to implement unique elements into our wedding since we had a small wedding of less than 50. Even though many aspects of our wedding were non-traditional and perhaps more memorable than most, Tyler is single handedly the one element people will remember. From the second he started performing, we were getting compliments left and right. All of the to-be-married couples asked us for his contact and rate because of how impressed they were with his performance. Tyler will be the unique addition to your wedding, his saxophone performance is truly incredible. Tyler also managed to make our small wedding feel big and epic because of how much he was able to rally everyone around the dance floor. Leading up to the wedding, he kept us on track and planned everything so beautifully far in advance as to reduce our anxieties. For all my type A brides out there, he will meet your planning standards without a doubt. If we go back in time with a fraction of the budget, he would be the only service we'd sacrifice everything else for. Thank you Tyler, we now have to throw an anniversary party just to have another reason to work with you!!! -Elle & Jordan

Music is everything. It’s your history, your identity, and your joy. It’s what moves you on the dance floor and what moves you to tears. Quite simply: it’s the most important decision you’ll make at your wedding. All Ears DJ is a premier entertainment group that boasts a ten-deep crew of highly-skilled DJs and musicians. Don’t settle for anything less than a DJ who can wow audiences with perfect blends, mashups and song selections. Talent matters, and All Ears DJs have shown up & showed out at more than 1000 weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area during the past decade.

Richard was great. He was a Preferred Vendor for Saratoga Springs. He had a form that we filled out about a week ahead with music selections and do not plays. It was very thorough. He responded quickly when we reached out to him with questions. The music selection was mostly on me because my husband generally listens to instrumental. I listen to a wide variety of music, so I left it pretty open ended, which I was a little nervous about, but Richard pulled it all together. An eclectic mix, yet cohesive. We had a much smaller turn out than we were expecting and even more dropped out last minute, my guess is because of the weather. It was an outdoor venue and was rainy and cold all day, but managed to burn out by the time the party started. Only raining briefly after dinner (we had umbrellas for everyone). The music selection was great and everyone rallied and had a good time. The last song was All You Need Is Love and a kick line formed with the remaining friends and family. It was ridiculously amusing. 10/10 would recommend Richard to anyone. I spent a good amount of time listening to his mixes on Mixcloud and have really enjoyed them.

I was on the fence about getting a photobooth for the wedding but I am SO glad we did! I was such a hit with our guests - everyone loved it. Brandon was so professional and great to work with. Leading up to the big day we had a quick 20-30 min meeting to discuss the wedding colors and our vision. Brandon created a mockup of the background and print outs based on the theme that had our hashtag on it, which was such a cute take-home for our guests. Brandon and his attendant were there all night to support as needed. The photobooth itself was pretty high-end - we were able to do videos, boomerangs, photos, etc. He also brought props to take photos with which were very cute. So, so much fun and definitely worth it! 10/10 recommend.

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is.

I think beauty is important. Beauty is what inspires us to do something higher than our everyday. A wedding day should be full of beauty. Whether that means beautiful sounds or a beautiful place setting. In my opinion, the two are inextricably linked. Beauty is what I strive to create for each bride and groom.

Danielle and her amazing team at Divina Strings are a high energy and exciting group of performers that are a great fit for upscale clients looking for boutique wedding and event musicians. Highly recommend.

Offering jazz, blues, Latin, funk, soul, dance, and instrumentals of pop and rock favorites, Kevin loves entertaining and starting the party with his big sax sound and professional backing tracks. He specializes in giving a unique experience to his clients by catering to their taste and style.

Kevin has been able to play for us on multiple occasions and each time he has knocked it out of the park, he played "Perfect - Ed Sheeran" when we got married at the San Diego Courthouse as a surprise for us. It was a fantastic performance and completely unexpected. He did a great job setting up and "hiding" away until it was the right time to come out. Then for our reception, Kevin played "Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis" while the bride walked down the aisle and nailed it! He is extremely professional and worked with us to make sure that his performance matched our vision. He also played during cocktail hour and did a great job with our guests and playing amazing music!

He did a great job making sure the dance floor was busy and he did a great job MCing our wedding. Thanks Woody! I’d highly recommend them :)

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

I have used Cuarteto Guataca both personally (birthdays, family events) and professionally as a wedding/ event florist and event planner for YEARS. Every time they manage to get everyone on their feet. They are super professional always and extremely easy to work with. Hands down, Josh and his band will always be my first choice for latin entertainment (any entertainment for that matter)!!
