Awarded Best of Zola
Justin just DJ'd our wedding reception this past Saturday and it was everything we hoped for. He was very organized about asking questions and all the nuances that come along with the music and emcee-ing of one of the most important nights in our lives. He coordinated with the event space staff as well as us and his ability to feel the room and make smart decisions on the spot is something you can't really teach you just hope for the best, and carry a memory of the long list of DJs that failed at that all the way back to middle school dances. Beyond happy to report where countless others have failed, he succeeded with flying colors.

CJ took the time to learn about our vision for the wedding ahead of time and he knocked it out of the park on our wedding day.

Everyone danced all night and we received several compliments from our guests afterwards at how great the music was.

Had the most tremendous experience with Bill during our wedding process, start to finish. From our initial meeting (with him and other DJS) we knew Bill was the one for us. He listened and understood how important music was to us in life and on our big day! He is patient and worked with us side by side! He was even open to our outlandish song choices! The day of the wedding he was a god sent. He kept us on schedule without being over bearing or pushy and boy was it excellent to have someone like that with you. He played the hits (our hits) during cocktail hour, dinner, and when the dance floor was open. My husband and I canNOT Speak more highly of him. An incredible addition to our day. Thank you Bill!!!!!

Dj Graeme Ritchie

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Essex, MA

Have it your way! That is my philosophy. There are so many different tastes and styles to accommodate, so I work extra hard to make your day exactly how you want it. What's the secret? I listen! I pay attention to each individual client and their own needs. I've been using this philosophy for years, and it has been working quite well! I am constantly learning more about my first love: Music! As a Master of Ceremonies, the philosophy is the same. I never say too much, it is not about me! It's about the client, and I never want to outshine or take any of their attention away.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Graeme as our wedding DJ for our big day, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made! In all seriousness, the best vibe curator we could have asked for. He was extremely easy to work with, is very experienced, organized, personable and makes everyone feel special. Most importantly, Graeme is fun! He realizes the importance of weddings, despite how many he's done - and he took extra care in making ours special, memorable and personalized. There is no doubt he knows what he's doing, and he makes sure everyone is happy and having a great time. Not only does he take care of absolutely everything - he goes FAR above and beyond. We had my now sister-in-law and her husband sing our first dance song (they traveled from out of town) and Graeme was able to arrange a guitar to make it extra special and perfect - convenience for everyone! I also didn't know what my first dance song would be with my dad, because my dad was adamant about surprising me and ended up creating a "mash-up" of special songs from my childhood, and was only able to do this because of Graeme and his willingness to go above and beyond (and the "mash-up" was under 2 minutes, which I am SURE Graeme also helped direct ;) ) - Our wedding day simply would not have been the same without him. If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding, look NO further. From before the ceremony to "shutting the place down" he managed it flawlessly every step of the way and we are so thankful for him. Weeks later we're still getting comments on how great our DJ was - I would recommend him over and over again if I could. Thank you Graeme!!

The day of, he was such an important partner in keeping the entire running smoothly, and made us feel so secure and well taken care of. And he throws an absolutely electric party! He did an incredible job of learning our styles, and blending together an awesome mix of our favorite music with great crowd pleasers he knew we’d like. Our dance floor was just wild for over four hours, and our guests kept raving about how great he was! Working with Brian was one of the absolute best decisions we made!

Shelley Otis, Harpist

5.0

Stoneham, MA
  • Solo performer

Shelley is a multi-award winning harpist based in the Boston area. Her musical style ranges from elegant classics to lively covers of pop songs. Couples can choose from a variety of genres including popular, classical, jazz, and various world traditions, and they are welcome to request additional songs that aren’t on her list. Finding just the right music for every couple is her top priority.

Awarded Best of Zola
Shelley was the cherry on top of our entire wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The soft and elegant sound of her music really made our ceremony. I have had so many guests compliment the live music, and say what a difference it makes (compared to a DJ with speakers) when the bride is walking down the aisle. It creates this intimacy that is unmatched. I remember feeling so nervous during the ceremony, standing in front of all of our guests, but Shelley's soft harp music in the background completely grounded me, and I found myself listening to her music every time I felt nervous. After the ceremony, Shelley seamlessly began playing fun upbeat jazz music for our cocktail hour, which I found to be so much fun and really create that easy and relaxed vibe after the "I do" that we were going for. In addition to the harp just being absolutely amazing, Shelley was also so fun and easy to work with. She is one of the most centered and calm people I've ever met, and definitely a personality that I needed on my team as the big day grew closer and the stress increased. Her communication is excellent, and she has the ability to put all of the jumbled ideas into a solid plan by using her knowledge, experience, and creativity. I recommend Shelley 110%, this is definitely a service to include in your wedding; it's a small touch that makes a WORLD of difference on your big day.

La Bella & The Beat

Rollinsford, NH
  • DJ
  • Starts at $6,500
  • Serves Essex, MA

I’m Jay and I'm the owner of La Bella and The Beat. I spend my weekends entertaining, celebrating and partying with some of the best people I’ve ever met. Music has always been a passion of mine--from my boombox days in 1st grade, playing for whoever would listen from my neighborhood driveway, to when my DJing side hustle of 13 years became my full-time career in 2018. I’m a versatile mobile DJ serving New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts (or really anywhere looking for a party). For the past decade, I’ve been rocking events all across New England. No my adventures even take the parties abroad.

Jay was exceptionally professional and went above and beyond to make sure our special day flowed seamlessly from start to finish. He took time to get to know us as a couple, and even helped us develop a timeline of events. From our first consultation straight through wedding day, Jay was personally invested in capturing our unique style and translating it into a soundtrack that made our wedding feel like walking through a movie. Every beat was in time with the moment; every selection paired to the energy. His attention to detail made all the difference. He even attended our rehearsal! We could not recommend Jay more; we were looking for a DJ but had no idea we would receive an experience so authentic and inspired. Jay’s genuine appeal made us feel like we were his only clients, and his presence at the wedding was like that of an old friend (who just happened to also be our DJ). Saying farewell at the end of the evening was like parting ways with your favorite schoolteacher. Thank you, Jay, for being as excited about our day as we were! We hope to see you again. – The Potes

These powerhouse performers are also professionally trained to keep your event running smoothly from start to finish, so you can truly focus on enjoying your special day.

Atlantic Shake was hands down the best band I've ever experienced at a wedding -- and we still have so many of our guests telling us the same thing 2 weeks after the fact. Our dance floor was absolutely electric, and the crowd did not want to leave even after Atlantic Shake's encore performance. Not only did they *make* the party at our reception (and took care of the dance floor lighting!), but they also provided live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. And the band managers themselves, Nick and Rebecca, were hugely helpful in the entire planning process -- We left every call more energized and excited for our wedding than when we'd started (which was definitely not a typical experience for vendor calls leading up to the wedding!). Could not recommend them more highly!!

Wow, wow, wow. The 1999 was recommended to us by our friends who saw them at a bar in Newport, RI. When we contacted them, they set up a private and intimate showcase where we got to sit down with the whole band and their DJ and ask a million questions. They also played a mini set and took our requests LIVE on the spot -- that blew us away. When it came time to our actual wedding, they were so polished, warm, friendly but most importantly energetic and fun. We had a wide range of ages at our wedding from kids under 12 to our great grandparents over 90 -- and all of them raved about how great they were. They were able to play our first dance live which made for a really special moment for my wife and me. Couldn't recommend them enough to the next couple. They are an absolute blast!

We just had to drop you a quick note to say THANK YOU for being the absolute DJ at our wedding! Seriously, you made the day unforgettable, and we couldn't have asked for a better vibe. First off, your flexibility with including our dogs in the celebration? A game-changer. You not only rolled with it but embraced the idea, and our furry friends became part of the party. The personalized touches like dedicating a song to them? Priceless. The dance floor was never empty, and everyone was raving about the tunes. You nailed the transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to reception flawlessly, and we appreciated your attention to detail. Thanks again for making our day so special and for being not just a DJ but a real part of the celebration. We'll be singing your praises to anyone looking for an awesome DJ.

Where do I even begin? Champagne Casanova absolutely killed it with their performance at our wedding reception. Choosing them as our band was undoubtedly the best decision we made in planning our wedding. Their commitment to making our night special was amazing. Not only did they flawlessly execute every song we requested, but their dedication to their craft showed when they learned multiple new songs just for us. Their rendition of 'Tracey's Mom' was a highlight, renaming the classic 'Stacey's Mom' to honor the bride was a genius move that had everyone laughing and singing with them—it was a massive hit. Champagne Casanova kept the dance floor alive and buzzing with energy for the entire night. They had everyone on their feet, jumping up and down, and singing; the atmosphere they created was electric, and we couldn't have asked for a better soundtrack to our wedding. Their professionalism, talent, and enthusiasm were exceptional. Champagne Casanova made our wedding unforgettable.

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.

Look no further, you should absolutely hire DeeJay Mot as your wedding DJ/MC. I have the opportunity to work with him as a client and as a vendor. I not only trust him for our clients but also for my personal events. As a recent bride, DeeJay Mot had us on the dance floor from the start of the party to the END! We never took a break because the music and vibe was great. I still get comments and compliments from friends and family on how great our DJ was. As a Wedding Planner and Designer we do a lot of weddings with him and it’s always a professional, fun, organized, energetic experience. He is part of our highly vetted preferred vendor list that we share with our clients. Leading to the event, he takes the time to get to know his clients, and pays close attention to the vibe that they want for their wedding/event. On the day of he is always ON TIME, his set up is usually done early enough so when guest arrives he’s ready to go. And when it is time for him to DJ he brings the ENERGY!!

I will be working with you directly every step of the way from consultation and planning, to the day of the wedding.

Vibrant was fantastic for our March wedding. They brought amazing energy and class to our event, and guests are still raving about them a month later. The dance floor was packed for the entire evening. Lauren and Miguel are a dynamite lead-singing duo, and the instrumentalists are each incredibly talented. Justin was very responsive and easy to connect with leading up to the day, and accommodated all of our requests and needs with ease. They were also very helpful with recommendations based on extensive experience, and even allowed the bride's sister to play their keyboard for the ceremony, which was an over-and-above request they did not have to agree to. Overall can't recommend this group enough!

My friend hired and coordinated with Luis from lionizing entertainment as a DJ for our engagement party in July. It was our first time meeting him at the party and from the beginning he was professional and personable. He made sure we had the type of music we wanted and kept people dancing. We were so happy with his services so we decided to hire him to DJ our wedding this past weekend as well. We originally had a summer wedding planned and decided to move it up sooner. Luis was so flexible and understanding when we reached out about the date change and we were still able to work with him for our new date. Throughout the planning process Luis was super responsive whenever we needed anything and he would check in to make sure we didn’t have any questions and he was more than prepared for our big day. He kept the night running smoothly despite the changes we made to the schedule of events at the last minute. Throughout the night he checked in with us and advocated for everything we needed. Our other vendors came up to us and said how much they loved working with Luis and how easy it was to get along with him. We decided to add a photo booth at the last minute and we are so glad we did because all of our guests were obsessed! Everyone used it all night and we got to keep the high quality photos after. A ton of guests reached out after the fact to say how impressed they were with the Photo Booth and the quality of pictures they received. The Photo Booth was so much of a hit we are renting it for our baby shower coming up in the spring as well. Luis has been so much fun to work with and we are looking forward to work with him for all of our future events - we would recommend Lionizing Entertainment to anyone!

She and her duo partner Joseph make a truly dynamic duo. Their ability to adapt to the mood and preferences of any crowd is truly impressive. You can catch them playing laid back acoustic tunes for ceremonies and cocktail hours, crushing a DJ set (with live vocals) and playing high energy singalongs... all in the same night. I have recommended Joseph and Erika to a number of my clients as well, and they consistently come back to thank me for the recommendation and mention their engaging performance style and easy-going nature which makes them a breeze to work with. 10/10, they're the best.

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

The Hook Club was both absolutely amazing to work with and were phenomenal at our wedding – every wedding guest remarks on how they were the best band they’ve seen at a wedding (regardless of age). Not only is the band extraordinarily talented (and fun), but Dan was wonderful to work with. He was extremely responsive and patient, made sure we understood the entire process, and made it as easy as possible for us. The Hook Club strings were amazing for our pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour – they created a perfect atmosphere and experience leading into the reception. The Hook Club truly made our reception – their energy and talent is absolutely unmatched. We can’t recommend them enough.

Jeff was awesome. From day one until the big day, he was open and available to communicate no matter the questions or concerns. He helped us figure out what we wanted and how it should flow. The day of the wedding he did his thing and kept the party going! But not just that he also checked in with us throughout and made sure to come speak with us and the wedding party before introductions into the reception to make sure everyone knew what to do or where to go and the order or events. He did an awesome job and was there to help in any way we needed him to! We would highly recommend him to anyone we know for any of their events!! He’s also super chill and just down to earth, really easy to get along with and excellent to work with for sure!!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and musical partner in Justin. The musical atmosphere of the event was very important to us and Justin blew our expectations out of the water. From just a couple conversations, it was evident that Justin truly understood our musical tastes as individuals and as a couple and he skillfully incorporated our preferences to create a unique and incredibly fun experience for our guests throughout the entire day. From the ambient yet upbeat music of the cocktail hour to the bangers on the reception dance floor, each transition was seamless and it was clear that he had carefully curated the music to match the energy of each moment of the day. What impressed us the most was how well Justin grasped our needs, tastes, and the flow of events. His friendly and approachable demeanor made us feel at ease, and he radiated positive vibes throughout the entire celebration. We got compliments throughout the event on the music and our dance floor was packed till the very last second. We had SO much fun and we've seriously had so many conversations post-wedding about how awesome the music was and how happy we were that Justin was our DJ.

Let me begin by telling you how to find a better DJ than Dave/Fish: Dream about it, because it will never actually happen. We ended our professional relationship wanting to take him home with us! I was making a joke the whole time that if there were a Ph.D in DJ'ing, he'd have it with honors. Professional, courteous, friendly, precise, clearly loves his job, respectful, selfless, 38 years experience, genuine, communicative, and very helpful beyond his job parameters. i.e. he made sure we had our champagne prior to the toast by summoning a waitress himself. He insisted we get our food first. Things like that. We had a very precise playlist for him down to the note and he adhered to it 110% without question. We felt very lucky to have stumbled on him the way we did and would honestly say you are doing yourself a disservice by not hiring him. Kudos, Dave and thanks again. It was an absolute pleasure as we consider you more of a guest than a hired hand in our minds.

Sam travelled a significant distance to Bar Harbor Maine for our rehearsal dinner. Planning and coordinating was extremely easy, straightforward and efficient. Sam was extremely flexible given the unpredictable weather, and was more than willing to move his entire set-up to accommodate us. While we were expecting a bit of background music, some relatable tunes, and the occasional rogue dancer, we ended up with so much more. With Sams playlist, and the help of an open bar, our guests went from mingling to cutting a rug. It unintentionally felt like a full on wedding reception. It was fantastic. We could not have had more fun. We even coaxed Sam into an encore. We could not be happier that we stumbled across Sam. Thanks Sam!
