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.”

The Hook Club was one of the best decisions we made for our little wedding! Dan and Adam were super responsive and attentive to our questions and requests. The planning process was a breeze, they had an organized questionnaire to collect all the songs we like. The song list provided was already extensive, and they were willing and happy to practice additional songs catered to our requests. Our bespoke quartet compose of a cello, violin, keyboard, guitar, and even a saxophone! All four members of our quartet were amazingly talented and a pleasure to have at our event, all our guests loved them!

WOW, we cannot thank The Golden Bell team enough for our beautiful wedding!!! Truly, when we began wedding planning - our #1 priority was having an epic party and music, which is why we hired Golden Bell. We were SO excited for our big day and knew Marlon Aldana and team would execute flawlessly -- But Marlon and Sebastian really knocked it out of the park and exceeded our expectations! Our dance floor was going all night and so many of our guests and vendors were in awe of Marlon and Sebastian!!! We will be singing Golden Bell's praises forever! But really, Marlon and the Golden Bell team were truly the best vendor we could have asked for. From the seamless MC'ing to the amazing music during cocktail, ceremony and reception -- holy crap, they really nailed. The team at Golden Bell are the most thoughtful crew, can read a room and bring energy, and execute flawlessly! Zero regrets, only high praises for Marlon and Golden Bell!!!

Joey Chang was instrumental in conducting our wedding ceremony and our wedding reception. He brought the highest level of musicianship, ceremony, and professionalism to our special day, making it sing! Joey played classical cello music before our ceremony, for the processional, and during our ceremony. Each music piece was selected for its contribution to the orchestration of the whole nuptial service and brought out and accompanied the feeling of the moment. Joey also played both classical and contemporary live cello (many of his original pieces) at our reception during dinner, creating a warm, welcoming, and nuanced atmosphere. Additionally, offering his multitalented presence, Joey served as our master of ceremonies for the reception. His timing and transitions and delivery were as deft at the microphone as they were at the cello, never missing a beat. Not only that but he also served as DJ for our wedding reception dance party. Working with our established playlist, he brought out the playful and reflective moments of the night, providing music to accompany the entrance, the first dance, the father daughter and mother son dance, and the bouquet toss. He worked magic! Our wedding and its celebration were a work of art, and Joey Chang was a principal artist in its creation. Joey was reliable and dependable in all of our preparations every step along the way; not only was he punctual and prepared, he helped to adapt to the changes in the moment on our special day, capably and flexibly responding to the schedule as it evolved throughout the five and a half hour reception. Joey Chang is a multi talented musician and artist who brought style and poise as well as containment and sheer beauty to our wedding day with his presence at the cello, at the microphone, and at the DJ table.
