We're writing this 4 days after our wedding, finally recovered from the absolute banger of a wedding that Alex DJ'ed. Our bodies are still sore from dancing all night and not sitting down. No one warned us how physically demanding it was to dance an entire night non-stop. We first met Alex when he was DJing our friends’, Addie & Loui’s, wedding in 2022. We were so impressed by how much thought and creativity went into his mixes and his ability to adapt the music based on the crowd's energy that night. The wedding planning process went very smoothly! During our calls, you could really tell how passionate Alex is about what he does. When we mentioned our favorite songs, he was so enthusiastic and immediately started working on mixes during the call. We loved the app he provided (Vibo), which allowed us to add songs and answer timeline questions for every aspect of our special day. On the wedding day, everything went smoothly and with no technical difficulties. He had enough equipment and staffing to handle the outdoor courtyard ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception (which all happened on separate floors). He played every song we asked for and was even able to fulfill a last minute request to surprise the bride with a flash mob that the groom organized. Our guests loved the PhotoBooth, which printed duplicates for our guest book. The booth attendants were very helpful providing instructions to fill out the guestbook. Alex is an incredibly talented artist, and you could tell that every detail of our dance party was expertly curated to make sure no one wanted to leave the dance floor. He poured his heart and soul into DJing that night, and every guest made sure to tell us how our night felt less like a reception and more like a set at a music festival. He seamlessly segued between genres and made sure he was able to fit in as much of our requests as possible. We wholeheartedly recommend Toussaint Productions to anyone who is looking to make sure every guest is out of their seats and dancing the night away.

Awarded Best of Zola
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat. We were so absolutely thrilled with Upchurch, and can’t recommend them to other couples more. We initially found them because we attend trivia with Trey and Andrew weekly at different venues. We have always loved their energy and music choices, so it was a natural fit for our wedding DJ choice. Because we do trivia so often as a couple, we asked if they would do a trivia game for our rehearsal dinner… and this was SUCH a hit. Our family and friends loved it. Trey provided the same personality and energy that we love every week at trivia for the rehearsal, and we absolutely loved it. In the planning process, Trey worked with us to be sure that he had the right vibe for the reception, but ultimately we gave him free reign because we trusted his judgement- he did amazing!! We had numerous comments about how great the DJ was. People who are not normally dancers were up having the time of their lives! Overall we had a FANTASTIC experience with Upchurch and will enthusiastically suggest them to everyone we know!! Thank you so much!!!

DJ Craig Wood (Perpetual Sound LLC)

5.0

Bristow, VA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,750

We are, unapologetically, the antithesis of the stereotypical mobile DJ event experience. The brainchild of Craig Wood, Perpetual Sound was created with to provide a stimulating entertainment experience without cutting corners or settling for “just good enough.” Every event is handled with the utmost respect, each client treated like a person, not an invoice number – because you deserve nothing less.

I can say with full confidence that Craig Wood is the ONLY DJ you should look to hire if you're hosting a wedding in the DC area. As a music lover, I knew I would be very particular about whom I could trust to provide the soundtrack for my big day. I've also attended countless dances and weddings throughout my life, so I know how the quality of the music or DJ services can make or break an event. Fortunately, Craig's process allows you to be very hands-on and vocal about exactly what songs to include or to skip. That means that each mix he creates is 100% customized to your vision and tastes. He is a true professional, and was extremely easy to get ahold of whenever I had questions and concerns. The dance floor at my reception was literally never empty, the uplighting he included was stunning, and I received non-stop compliments from guests, both at the event and in the days to come. I cannot recommend Craig Wood enough!

I wanted my wedding day to be a huge party, and I really wanted people dancing for the majority of it.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

If you’ve had a good time at a wedding or event in the DC/Maryland/VA area, chances are it was DJ Casanova that got you moving. You know him as DJ Casanova, but around the office, we just call him Jamie. Back in the day, he was just a child of immigrants recording his favorite songs over his parent’s cassette tapes (sorry Mom and Dad) so he could listen to them on his prized Walkman. Jamie entered the DJ field in 2009, and before long he was spinning something at a different party every week. Pretty soon he realized that sharing his love of music with like-minded folks was more than just a hobby, it was a gift.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an amazing experience working with Jamie (DJ Casanova) for our wedding in October 2022 (been meaning to write a review for so long)! Jamie was very professional throughout the whole planning process. We actually hired him in 2020 but we had to postpone our wedding twice because of covid (he was very flexible and made the postponement process very smooth). We met virtually/over the phone a few times and he assured us he was available to meet as many times as we'd like. Closer to our wedding date, we had a more formal meeting where we went through the timeline of the whole reception detail by detail. He had a form where we put in all the information, which showed he was experienced at the job. I was very particular about the type of music I wanted to be played at our reception and he was super easy-going about it and assured us that he was there to implement our vision. On our actual wedding day, everything went as planned and honestly even better than I could have ever imagined! I love to dance and so do many of our guests, and thanks to Jamie, the dance floor was never empty even for one second! He knew how to read the room and change the music accordingly. Even after our wedding, everyone couldn’t stop talking about how fun the party was! In sum, I highly recommend Jamie and already have recommended him to some friends looking to get married soon! Thank you again for everything, Jamie!

All of my guests have come to me, saying how it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. A huge part of that to John. Very professional, very helpful, and super nice. They use an app, to upload what music you want to play at your event. It makes it so much easier, so you know exactly what songs are going to be played. I would definitely hire perfect harmony again, and will be very highly recommending it to all friends and family.

Hey I’m Anthony! I'm a Virginia based DJ/MC or "Vibe Creator" as I prefer to call it. It's my absolute joy to run a business that specializes in creating and sharing once in a lifetime experiences for some of the most incredible people. My versatility and passion for my craft has kept me a sought after DJ for over two decades. With my experience in the wedding industry, I have the knowledge and skills to handle all aspects of your wedding entertainment. Providing you with an epic dance party is my main goal, but as your wedding DJ, I'm focused on making sure your entire wedding runs smoothly. I hope we get the chance to celebrate soon!

Anthony was the most highly recommended vendor my husband and I worked with for our wedding and I can absolutely see why. Everyone kept telling us, “We don’t need to worry about Anthony, he’s on top of it” and they were right. His set up was seamless and he was able to accommodate our last minute changes due to rain. My goal was to have a fun wedding that felt like a party and Anthony delivered. He crafted the perfect playlist and you could not get me off the dance floor. I’m excited for the next party I go to where Anthony is the DJ because I know I will have the best time.

Kelton from Marquee Artists is awesome - he killed it dj-ing for the clients, the dance floor was non-stop going nuts the whole time! His demeanor is super low-key and easy going, and he was very easy to work with, which means a lot in this field. Weddings have lots of moving parts and can be chaotic, but having vendors that are kind and willing to work as a team makes the day go a whole lot smoother. The couple had lots of requests for songs in completely different genres, but he managed to keep the party going with no awkward pauses and seamless transitions. I highly recommend hiring him if you want someone that's going to work well with everyone and make sure to light the dance floor on fire!

The "Original" Moonlighters ®

Washington, DC
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Gainesville, VA

Since 1990, The Moonlighters ® have been performing throughout the U.S. as one of the country’s best-loved and most authentic Motown and variety dance bands, covering all your Jazz/Blues/Oldies/Motown/Soul/Disco/Funk/Classic Rock/Pop favorites! Just close your eyes and you’ll swear the original artists are performing. But don’t close them for too long or you won’t be able to enjoy their outstanding dance moves and showmanship.

We're quite saddened by their google review, posted even before we had a chance to actually speak with them to clear up several serious inaccuracies. Our band has HUNDREDS of positive online reviews/satisfied wedding clients. And we'll always accept valid criticism. But this one is mostly false and unfair. As Zola does not provide the option for responding to negative reviews, the following are our comments: 1. Since the bride and groom hadn't hired a wedding planner everything was extremely disorganized as we received their timeline just one week prior to the event, but then they changed it twice more, including two days before. Despite asking for our bandleader's phone #, the groom never reached out to discuss any of these details. In other words, we were given minimal direction in regard to all of the last-minute changes. Even on the wedding day itself, our band was asked to set and reset their equipment multiple times because the bride and groom disagreed with the onsite coordinator's floor plan, moving/resetting the bride and groom table as well! 2. According to what the photographer told us, the bride and groom's limo driver was over 90 min. late, shifting the entire timeline and putting them in a bad mood from the very beginning, as noticed by our bandleader at around 5:15pm when he first introduced himself, prior to the band providing either live or recorded music. 3. Regarding the recorded music, it was only lacking for approx. 45 min. as the band discovered the phone battery issue at approx. 7:45pm, during their first break, quickly rectifying the situation by putting the phone on a charger and then continuing with the recorded music outside from approx. 8-10pm. Furthermore, they made up for it by keeping their system running for an extra 30 min., beyond our contracted time of 11pm. And those comments regarding the afterparty are also totally untrue as somebody from the band was manning the system, until a cousin of the bride or groom demanded that he use her playlist instead, and then she responded angrily when he finally turned off the system at 11:30pm. 4. As for the band's sound system, we do acknowledge some 'hum' issues as there was just one electrical outlet provided for the entire band, resulting in 'dirty power' which couldn't be fully corrected. And we deeply regret mispronouncing the various names as most were very unfamiliar and of Indian origin, despite our lining up the wedding party in advance and writing everything down phonetically. 5. Even though some of the client's emails mentioned solo keys during cocktails, we provided a duo, covering an extra 30 min. of recorded music from 4:30-5pm at no extra charge, as requested. While it's standard practice for a band to take a dinner break during an almost six hr. event, this was clearly-specified in our contract as well. And then we performed continuously from 8:30-10pm, including most of the requested songs that we had prepared well in advance. So their comments about seemingly just 'walking off a bus' are completely false and misleading. In other words, our musicians went 'above and beyond' in spite of some very challenging circumstances. 6. Fortunately, we did receive a 'happy reaction' with a crowded dance floor and TONS of compliments from the guests, some requesting pictures w/the band too, while even the bride and groom were singing along and dancing non-stop, which we were VERY happy to see, making their negative review even more surprising though!

Welcome! My name is Obehi (obey). I'm a Nigerian-born American. God has blessed me with many opportunities to be a full-time DJ. I take very seriously the nearly 200 weddings I've had the privilege of being a part of. I hope this curated page can show you and your family that I will give 110% of my talent and personality to aid in making your night one to remember.

Finding the right DJ was one of the most important things for my fiancé and I when we were planning our wedding. We stumbled across a video on social media of Obehi at a wedding absolutely rocking out with his clients and their guests and we were immediately sold. From the very first phone call, we knew we had made the right choice. Obehi was open, honest, and deeply cared about making sure he was providing us with an exceptional DJ experience at our wedding! He answered questions when we needed him and he truly took the time to get to know us as a couple to ensure that the music he was playing matched us and our vibe. Our wedding was nothing short of perfect and Obehi played a huge role in the that! He played every song that was requested by us as a couple, our guests, and beyond. He interacted with us personally, with our guests, and even made sure to join us on the dance floor! Obehi is more than just a DJ...he's an MC, some comic relief in a stressful moment, and now a forever friend! If you are looking for a DJ for your special day, I cannot recommend Obehi enough!
