We hired Golden Bell for our wedding in March and would absolutely recommend. We did a hybrid (3 instruments DJ) and it was a perfect mix of live music and recorded. Having been to a ton of weddings prior to our own, we were looking for entertainment that felt more modern, was able to mix songs properly, and play music that wasn’t just the top 40. We wanted it to be a party and for everyone to be on the dance floor all night, and that’s exactly what we got. We worked with Aaron and he was great from start to finish, easy to work with, and was able to understand what we wanted the vibe to be like. We got so many compliments on the music, which was our biggest priority!

We had Justin from DJ JAS Productions DJ our wedding on April 13th and we were not disappointed! We interviewed Justin about 6 months before and we clicked immediately. He listened to what we wanted and took the time to make sure this was one less thing we had to worry about. In the weeks leading up to the wedding we spoke multiple times on zoom calls and went over the timeline and music selection we wanted. We requested a lot of Spanish music and also a bunch of electronic/trance music. The dancing started and did not let up until the last song! All our guests had an amazing time. We were super happy with DJ JAS. Thanks Justin for an amazing wedding!

Ben was very responsive and professional leading up until our wedding and then executed our music plan flawlessly throughout the wedding, from the ceremony through the reception. The dance floor was seriously on fire all night long! Several guests have made comments that Ben orchestrated the most fun reception they’ve attended. Highly recommend Summit Events.

DJ Purple Lettuce was a better wedding DJ than we could have hoped for, and she was truly one of the highlights of our entire wedding experience. She kept our wedding guests dancing for THE ENTIRE reception with a mix of nostalgic millennial hits, and her own mash-ups and mixes sprinkled in. As an MC she was very in-tune and gentle enough to allow for all the feels (maybe in part thanks to her background in radio), but also knew how to hype up the crowd in an authentic way. Our guests could not stop raving about her for weeks afterward. Second Song as a company also felt very professional and reliable. It was so helpful to have the Soundcloud and video footage of each DJ on the website so we could choose the person with the right fit. They were super responsive and knowledgeable and we never doubted that there would be any issues with equipment or reliability. Testimonials from some of our wedding guests about DJ Purple Lettuce in particular: “Her songs were lit and her transitions and mixes were sooooo refreshingly novel yet easy to follow. Never had to tilt my head saying ‘huh.’ Pleased all ages from 1 to 70 but mostly the late 20 to early 30s crowd aka us.” “As for the DJ Miss Lettuce I was really grateful as she let me leave my bag under her table and she took care of it and was sweet when I asked her.” “I felt like she was really energetic and seemed to be genuinely having fun and enjoying being there. The music selection/transitions were really good. And I remember her giving good directions when she had to tell us where to go next.” “Your DJ was insanely good. Remembered all the mashups. Also enjoyed her explanation of her name so cute and fun.”
