Great service, exquisite music taste. I loved not having to worry about flow, introductions, or having fun on the dance floor. Drew was so communicative and sent lists and lists of song recommendations for every part of the wedding in order to alleviate some of the wedding planning stress. He was really able to read the dance floor and made dancing such a fun experience for all involved! Not to mention, his flexibility and willingness to incorporate my latin culture into the playlist. I would definitely work with them again for future parties.

Justin’s skill and presence as a DJ is completely unmatched. I’ve been to numerous events where he has provided the entertainment and the dance floor has always been packed and guests are always having the best time! I’ve also been to numerous events were he hasn’t been the DJ and I wished he was!! I worked with Justin and his assistant John for my own wedding in October 2021 and they were both incredible to work with. Their professionalism and extensive knowledge of music put me so much at ease. You can tell Justin has been doing this for a long time and cares deeply about his business and clients. You will not regret booking with Music On The Move!

Our family and friends raved about their selection of songs and talent throughout the cocktail hour. Highly recommend.

Shirley, MA

Elation is defined as extreme, exhilarating joy, and the emotion of great happiness. We chose our name to reflect the high level of service that we provide and the client satisfaction from the results we produce. In fact, we’re elated that you are here! DJ John Hathaway A unique love and passion for music serve as the foundation for John’s story of becoming a DJ. John has been entertaining the masses with hundreds of private celebrations and appearances in public venues under his belt for more than 20 years. His deep knowledge of music and diverse experience contribute strongly to creating fun and memorable events.

John was amazing to work with! He was interested and invested and takes a lot of pride in his job. We gave him some special tasks like blending a Beatles song with an Italian song for the father/daughter dance as well as asked him to put together an EDM block with our favorite songs and he nailed both of them. The dance floor was packed all night and everyone complimented us on our DJ. Very responsive and helpful, would recommend to anyone. Thanks for making our day extra special John!!!

Jay and Martha were AWESOME! Highly recommend them for DJing. They were so sweet and gifted guests a surprise towards the end of the night which was a special touch. I still get compliments for how good my wedding DJ was. I host events and parties often, I already know who to have on speed dial. They know how to set the mood and direct it throughout an event. I asked some vague requests, like "no typical white people wedding music" (e.g., Don't Stop Believin', etc.) and had drastically different genres for dinner and party portions. THEY UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT and beyond. There were actually several songs I wish I knew because I loved them so much but never heard them before, yet they were really catchy and quite the vibe.

Joseph & Erika

5.0

Groton, MA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,850

We’re here to make things simple: We play live music. We DJ. And we help create unforgettable moments that are uniquely you. If you’re ready for a soundtrack for your wedding day that perfectly complements your vibe, delivered to you in a totally unique, no-compromise entertainment package, we’ve got you covered.

The best decision we made for our wedding! We got married on Nantucket and we’re struggling with DJ selections so our Wedding Planner recommended Joseph & Erika. We are SO happy that we selected these two as they were incredibly professional, had wonderful recommendations for our big day, and did an amazing job meeting our requests and keeping everyone on the dancefloor! Joseph & Erika were the best of both worlds for our big day, playing both live music and also switching to DJing during the reception. We opted to have them join us for our Cocktail Hour for live music and our guests could not stop talking about how lovely of an addition they were. During our reception, they did a perfect job MC’ing and keeping the evening moving along with great live-background music, and after keeping up a fun dancefloor, they played a private last dance for us and it was magical! We couldn’t have been happier with the music and service they provided - 11/10 recommend!

Vibeology IA

5.0

Belmont, MA
  • DJ

Music is a lifeblood of life's journey: a universal language that invokes emotion and creates memories; and when thoughtfully and passionately curated into a soundtrack, custom-tailored to specifications, preferences and tastes, the outcome is truly magical, noteworthy, and filled with joy, sentiment, and connection. For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

We met Denise when she DJ'd a friend's wedding and it was the most fun reception I'd ever attended. I knew she HAD to be my DJ if ever I got married! From day 1 of meeting with her for our wedding, it was clear that her goal was to give us the best party of our lives, whatever that looked like to us. She had great advice throughout the entire process and took time to get to know us and what style/vibe we wanted for our reception. Communication is key, and she had the logistics of the reception planned down to the minute. The music portal is very user friendly and it was really fun to think through our music. If you need song advice, she's your gal. She will strictly adhere to your do NOT play list. She gets the guests engaged and is truly a party starter (if that's what you want). Our guests told us they were sore the next morning because they literally never left the dance floor. Many have asked us to do an annual anniversary party and have Denise DJ it. She will become your family DJ for life and we know of at least 2 guests who plan to have her DJ their wedding. She is a lovely human and a STELLAR DJ. You will not regret asking her to DJ your special day! <3

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Newton, MA

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!

I can not recommend Shane enough, from the moment we reached out to him during the planing process until the day itself, Shane was beyond helpful! He really was a vital part in making our day perfect. And the wedding video he created captured the day beautifully, we can’t stop watching it! The best wedding dj & videographer you could ask for!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
From the start, working with Get Down Tonight Entertainment was a great experience. The company replied to our inquiries promptly and provided us with tons of information on the many Dj's who they contract. We had several interviews with some incredible Dj's and know that we truly would have felt comfortable with any of them on our big day. We chose to work with Craig Fahey and it was one of the best wedding planning decisions that we could have made! Craig was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process, holding several phone conversations with us prior to our big day. He supported us in not only our music selections, but in planning the nitty gritty details of our timeline and always left us feeling more confident and calm. On the big day, Craig not only Dj'd for our reception, but he played keyboard for our ceremony and cocktail hour as well. He is an incredibly talented musician and took almost no breaks throughout the night. From the start of the reception, Craig had our dance floor packed! He did an excellent job of balancing our wide variety of musical tastes as well as that of our guests. Craig went above and beyond the call of duty, even helping us to complete a table photo challenge and recording a private last dance for us at the end of the night. To this day, our guests are still raving about how much fun our night was and what a great Dj Craig was. We cannot recommend Craig, and Get Down Tonight Entertainment, enough!

Bill went above and beyond our expectations for our wedding DJ! From the start he was so eager to know exactly what we wanted in our music choices and also how we wanted our wedding to go in general. He was a great communicator with us and the other vendors and SO accommodating during the planning process (even when I made last minute changes to the playlist, he was so on top of it!) The timing of our wedding actually ended up being ahead of schedule, which was absolutely because of his guidance in keeping the schedule moving at the clip it needed to be. This was great because it meant we got more time on the dance floor, which was absolutely my favorite part! Now I'm a bit of a music nerd, so I had very specific songs that I wanted played at specific moments and he delivered that perfectly! Our playlist was also pretty eclectic (indie, folk, pop, disco, classic rock, 80s new wave, EDM kind of eclectic!) and he was able to build an order to my songs that flowed perfectly and kept people dancing all night! If you are thinking about hiring Bill, DO IT!!! he was so kind and professional from beginning to end of working with him. Can't recommend him enough.
