Style Points DJs

Glastonbury, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Newport, RI

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

Worked with Style Points DJs at Seven Ponds Farm. The Dj was really friendly towards me and communicated with us on the things that we needed. We worked towards a common goal which is to make the client happy. It wasn’t a competition but instead a team work. It was the first time working with him but the energy was like we have worked together for ages. As a videographer that needed to use his connector for better sound quality, working with him was a breeze. We weren’t afraid to approach him for anything because he was so friendly and all smile. Style Point Djs rock and can’t wait to work with them again.

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500

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!

Shane is undeniably the best in the business! I knew we had to hire him from the second we met. The booking and planning process was a breeze. My husband’s family is Portuguese and we couldn’t believe how well Shane was able to read the crowd but also include the Portuguese music. He knew the best picks to play in addition to all the other recommendations he made and we loved. Shane reassured us everything would be amazing - and it was. Two days before the wedding, the venue changed the layout and plan but you would have never known with how Shane orchestrated such a seamless night. Shane has a true knack for gauging the crowd and knowing the best music to play - he really kept our party going all night!

Bill at Rhythm Express is awesome and took so much stress out of our wedding planning process, and also on the day of the wedding! You can tell he's a seasoned professional and knows every single thing you might want to address in terms of music, speeches, and even lighting! He reached out a few months ahead of time and even walked us through the whole timeline in a super calm and collected way, which made us feel SO much better as we planned everything else. We even gave his timeline to the wedding venue coordinator and she asked who he was because they were so impressed! Bill is also an expert in all things music - if you are at a loss of what music to have where, he has so many suggestions and helpful tips. And his prices are MORE than fair. I would totally recommend!

Dj Graeme Ritchie

5.0

Providence, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800

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
My husband and I had some strong opinions about the music that should be played at our wedding - for example, no classic wedding songs or oldies. We asked Graeme to cater to the younger crew at our wedding (70% of our wedding guests were 35 or younger) and he delivered. Once we opened the dance floor I never saw anyone sitting down again for the rest of the night. The tent rental company had told me that the dance floor I wanted to rent was much larger then needed for our weddings size but Graeme was able to keep it full and even over flowing all night long. He knows how to throw a party! In addition we had an outdoor ceremony and even though the wedding wasn't particularity large (98 guests) the space he needed to make music & sound work for was very large and far away from an electrical source. Graeme worked directly with my venue to ensure he had everything he needed to make the day go off without a hitch.

Alex was amazing to work with! We were supposed to get married on September 26th of last year and had to push our wedding and lost many of our vendors! Alex stepped right in and helped us with all our DJ needs and the services he offers were great! His monthly to weekly check ins kept me on track. Everything was exactly how we imagined and couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day! One week after our wedding we received our monogram necklace in the mail and it had all the memories of the night dancing through my head again. We couldn’t thank Alex enough!

My style is about my bride and groom having a good time and creating an atmosphere for their guests to have fun by playing and mixing great music. As a an experienced DJ I know how to read the crowd and play the right music at the right time to keep the dance floor moving. I will keep the DJ “chatter” to a minimum to be sure not to steal the spotlight.
