If your looking for an awesome, amazing DJ for your special event, soundz amazing DJ service is the way to go. Mike was absolutely amazing in everything that he did to make it an amazing night. My wedding was far from traditional. We had a disney themed wedding, Mike came up with ideas on how to incorporate the theme, he introduced the bridesmaids and groomsman as princesses and princes, and the bride and groom as queen and king. He came up with the idea of doing voiceovers to make the father and daughter dance and the husband and wife a little more special. There wasn't a dry eye in the room. He got everyone on the dance floor, the song selections were great. He listens to what couples want, he really spends time to get to know his clients before the event. He makes sure everything is correct even if there happens to be changes the day before or the day of. Mike and his wife were everything we were looking for in a dj service. We honestly can't thank them enough! Briana and Sperling

Beacon, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $800

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Our wedding could not have gone better, and Skylark music was a big part of that. When we started planning we had another DJ in mind who turned out to be unavailable, but after the first time we spoke with Justin it felt that we found an even better fit than our plan A. The ceremony and cocktail hour music was exactly what we were looking for, and it was easy to see how much fun everyone was having on the dance floor. Justin also did a great job as an MC coordinating with us and other parties to keep everything moving smoothly. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience for us and we'd recommend Skylark Music to others in a heartbeat.

Nathan was the perfect DJ for our wedding. He was punctual, set up quickly and got the party grooving immediately. He played a great blend of early disco bangers, through current dance hits and even had deep cuts spiced into the mix. Nathan, prior to our wedding, reached out several times to ask what kind of sound we wanted for our big day and if we had specific songs in mind. He was also in constant contact with our day-of wedding coordinator, so everything would run seamlessly. We would highly recommend this caring and professional DJ for your wedding, or any other event! Thanks again, Nathan!

Awarded Best of Zola
Brennan and Cooper Union were the defining feature of our wedding (other than our love, of course). Cooper Union is not a wedding band, they are a full-scale production extravaganza. Motown, pop, soul, rock & roll—they do it all and they’re doing it WELL. The sound is BIG. I’m glad we got the full band—3 vocalists, full horns section (literally could not imagine going without). Aside from his incredible on-stage presence, Brennan was an absolute dream to work with — personable, kind, funny, and passionate. I felt like we were old friends from the moment we first spoke on the phone. Cooper Union made our wedding unforgettable. I am not exaggerating when I say I danced the whole time. They even covered an electronic song to perfection for our first dance. If you’re like me, and wedding planning is not your favorite, and you want to tick a box off the list, look no further—you can’t go wrong. Best decision you will make.

My husband and I have really diverse tastes in music, and the crowd at our wedding was honesty a weird mix, so Ernest and Marlowe had their work cut out for them. Pros: -Had a cool app you could plug all your music into, incredibly detailed. -The MC was an absolute hoot -Tried very hard to get the guests to dance. -Everything was set up in time and looked nice. -Open communication, could accommodate our venue needs. Cons: -(my biggest issue) The DJs phone was hooked up to the ceremony speakers, he got a message as I was walking down the aisle. Funny in retrospect, upsetting at the time. -Would skip songs midway through. Have a very funny video of the groom and groomsmen singing a song and the DJ stopped playing it midway through. -My nephew requested "We Don't Talk About Bruno" and for some reason he played the instrumental version? It was really weird. If you're a really type A bride I wouldn't go for Electrified DJs. If you're planning your wedding like its a big party for you and your guests? Have at it

As a wedding photographer, I had the pleasure of working alongside Style Points DJs this summer, and it was such a fun experience! Not only did they keep the dance floor packed during the reception, but they also handle unique aspects of this particular wedding so professionally (ie: a violinist and an aerial hoop artist). Their playlist incorporated songs for all guests to enjoy, and the audio throughout the day, including the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception, was crystal clear. I would highly recommend Style Points DJs to any couple who is looking for an energetic, yet professional duo.

Shawn did an awesome job! He did the music for our wedding ceremony, the music for the reception, provided uplighting, and the photobooth. My now husband and I enjoyed working with Shawn. He is funny, easy going, and patient. His questionnaire is very detailed and is very helpful for pulling the music together for the day. He also was very focused on making sure my now husband and I heard what we wanted to hear for the music. During the ceremony, Shawn timed the music perfectly. We saw later watching videos that he even cut the microphone out for my brother, the officiant of the wedding, when my brother almost started talking over parents walking down the aisle. Thanks for that, Shawn! Later in the night, we had other challenges with our timeline due to longer than expected speeches, too many tables to say hi to, and my own indecisiveness. Shawn handled all these obstacles very smoothly, kept an eye on the crowd and helped us stay in tune with when we needed to get the dance floor going. He played the songs we requested and helped us out with choosing songs for younger people. Since the wedding went by so quickly, I think the thing I am most grateful for is all the photos and videos he took of the night. The day was a bit of a blur and Shawn let us relive the night by sending us tons of photos and videos of everyone dancing. Thank you for that, Shawn!

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

Caroline from Upbeat Occasions was amazing throughout the whole planning process! She has an incredibly helpful online wedding/music planner to help keep you organized and really give her a vibe of what you like to listen too. She couldn’t have been any easier or nicer to work with! All of our guests loved her! Her transitions from song to song at the ceremony and reception were flawless. We had people on the dance floor all night, which shows how great Caroline was. I cannot say enough amazing things about her! Book her - you won’t regret it!

JUST THE MELODY BAND (JTM) is an all-star cast featuring a Grammy nominee and voices featured in tv/film and theatre. Led by singer, songwriter, and recording artist Melody Rodriguez, the band can be heard in numerous styles such as Latin Pop, Boy Bands and 90’s nostalgia, while authentically performing standards and classics with powerhouse vocals.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a band for a multicultural wedding, we knew they had to be special. Just the Melody was the first band we reached out to and it was clear from the onset that we didn’t have to look any further because we knew they were the ones. Throughout the entire experience, Melody and Edvin were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly responsive and took the planning process seriously while also keeping it fun. We were able to have multiple planning meetings where they clearly listened to our vision and more specifically the energy we were hoping to bring to the entire evening. Our wedding included multiple different musical moments that Just the Melody was able to provide with aplomb. The ceremony was romantic instrumental music that transitioned to modern pop instrumentals during the first half of the cocktail hour. Then a Mariachi band took over the second half of the cocktail hour with Melody providing gorgeous vocals for a few songs before the 12-piece band took over the magic for the rest of the night. The band with Edvin as MC matched the energy of our guests the entire night in a way we never expected. After our first dance, a beautiful rendition of Luis Miguel’s”Por Debajo De La Mesa”, the band moved right into a wondrous lineup of Latin music including Cumbia, Bachata, and Salsa that got our guests up and on their feet. From that point forward the dancing was nonstop with both American and Latin music filling the air. They also helped us celebrate the joining of our Jewish and Latino cultures by playing the Hora followed by La Vibora De La Mar. Edvin and Melody worked well with our venue to time our fathers’ speeches when our guests paused for a moment to eat and they were thoughtful with the tempo of the night by pairing this with our father/bride and mother/groom dances. After dinner they brought the energy right back up and we even got to see some of Edvin’s unreal dance moves when the 90s/2000s pop music started up. We could absolutely not believe it when they allowed us to come on stage and belt out one of our favorite songs (Jimmy Eat World’s “The Middle”). It was a living dream (especially for the bride). We cannot say enough how much both of us and all of our guests absolutely adored Just the Melody. We have been told multiple times by our guests that they didn't expect to go to a concert along with our wedding and that they loved every minute of it. And we did too. The music the entire evening was exceptional and better than anything we could have come up with in our wildest dreams for the evening. Thank you Melody, Edvin and the entire Just the Melody crew - we could not have chosen better for our wedding!!

Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."

I don't think a single person at our 10/14/23 wedding received more compliments than DJ Steff. And there's no one I'd be happier to share the spotlight with. To put it simply - DJ Steff is amazing. At every phase of planning -- from our introductory call to walking through the event portal to wedding weekend - DreSteff Events was a dream. DJ Steff was patient, kind, thoughtful, collaborative, and incredibly responsive. He took time to know our specific music tastes, pet peeves, and personalities to bring our wedding ceremony reception to life in a way that felt uniquely us. He found all the songs we wanted to use -- no matter how obscure. The music mics at the ceremony were flawless. The cocktail hour tunes were on point. Our uplighting - both during dinner and when the dance floor was in full swing - set the room perfectly ablaze. And he DID NOT MISS with any of the reception music. All night, we heard: "WHERE DID YOU FIND THIS GUY?" "YOUR DJ IS AMAZING." "I'VE NEVER DANCED SO MUCH AT A WEDDING." I cannot rave about DJ Steff enough. If you're getting married in the tri-state, book him in a heartbeat. Best decision we made, outside deciding to marry each other.

We worked with such an incredible team of vendors, and one of the most amazing thing about Tony is that he is so in tune (pun intended) with the wedding industry that he works so well with everyone, is a true team player, and helps to make sure every single aspect of your wedding runs smoothly. We had an initial meeting with Tony before we even signed a contract and within seconds of hanging up we knew we had to work with Tony. He just gets it. He gets everything about weddings. He knows how to curate the perfect vibes and music. He is a phenomenal MC. He has your back throughout every step leading up to the wedding. We had a few meetings with Tony to discuss our goals for the wedding and every time we met with him we got more and more confident that Tony was going to absolutely kill it. Little did we know that Tony was going to create the most perfect set list of songs, create the most perfect mashups, and create a night that every guest and every age group would enjoy. My 86 year old grandma danced the ENTIRE night thanks to Tony’s expertise. You can tell from the minute you meet Tony that he loves what he does. We have had so many friends and family members tell us how incredible Tony was and how we had the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to. We’re biased but we agree. Tony made such an incredible impact not only on us, but all of our guests. Also to add, Tony brought cold sparklers and extra lighting for us that absolutely blew our minds. Our dance floor was PACKED from the minute it opened. Tony is a top notch entertainer and a top notch person. If you are given the opportunity to work with him, don’t think twice. Do it.

Since even before leaving the touring life in 2015, Jon has been a fixture in the New York private event/wedding band scene and has been a drummer, band leader, talent booker and event producer for the biggest agencies and bands in the area.

Full disclosure, my wife and I have known Jon for a long time. He is one of the most honest, transparent, trustworthy and hard-working, and talented people I’ve ever met. Separate of that, I just simply wouldn’t trust anyone else when it comes to music for events and weddings. When Dara and I got married, Jon was producing weddings and bandleading for one of the bigger wedding band agencies in New York. Because of our trust in him and because we wanted him to be the bandleader, we hired that company for our wedding and it was the best decision we could’ve made. The party was absolutely epic!!! Our guests kept coming up to us and commenting on how the band was incredible. It was obvious that Jon was one of the main reasons why - having been a major part of their operations for several years at that point. We are absolutely ecstatic that he started The Brooklyn Beats! We know that countless parties and weddings will also agree that it was the best choice to have his team of talented and professional artists rock the house! We can’t wait to renew our vows and work with Jon again!

Ryan was truly the whole package. When we were originally pricing out DJs for our wedding, we were a little shocked by how much they are. However, music is very important to both of us, and we had heard enough negative stories from friends and acquaintances that we knew it was important to find a quality DJ. Ryan was recommended to us by an old classmate, and from our first meeting we knew we wanted him to do our wedding. Ryan is so personable, so attentive, and he makes you feel like you're the only/most important wedding he's doing (while still exuding confidence and experience). We had a great many long Zoom calls with Ryan (we were planning our wedding from across the country) and he thought of things we would never have thought of in a million years. On the day of, Ryan made sure everything went seamlessly. He was the most incredible emcee and DJ, and all our friends commented on what a great job he did curating an atmosphere.

All of the guests were up dancing during their whole performance.

Brooklyn, NY

  • Serves Poughkeepsie, NY

Mama Juke is a gumbo of New Orleans influenced blues, blue-eyed soul, funk, and folk. Actor/singer Elijah Bridges brings elements of bluegrass and rag with his soulful harmonica, acoustic guitar, and voice. Amos Rose is a world traveling multi-instrumentalist who also sings and plays lead Telecaster guitar, and was recently featured by Jazz at Lincoln Center. Brendan O’Grady is an in-demand session musician and fixture on the greater New York scene since his roots growing up in Yonkers. Drummer Jon Wert is a sought-after musician, collaborating with a wide variety of artists in the jazz, rock, pop production shows and songwriter worlds.

We booked Mama Juke for our 9/24/2022 wedding and they did not disappoint. I can’t say I wasn’t nervous, as they didn’t have any reviews posted yet, but Jon was very helpful in addressing all our concerns and they kept our guests entertained and dancing all night long! They learned our first dance song- Golden Hour by Kacey Musgraves and put their own flair to it, which we loved. They are such a fun mix of rock, jazz, bluegrass, country and played a good mix of songs for all ages. I would also recommend listening to some of their original songs and including them in your day, my husband and I were so happy we did. :) I want to have another wedding just so we can have them play again!

I think beauty is important. Beauty is what inspires us to do something higher than our everyday. A wedding day should be full of beauty. Whether that means beautiful sounds or a beautiful place setting. In my opinion, the two are inextricably linked. Beauty is what I strive to create for each bride and groom.

Danielle and Her team were amazing!! We hired them for our Wedding in August 2023 in Newport RI and they were outstanding!! We had a Trio for Our ceremony outdoors, a Jazz Duo for our Cocktail hour and then we had a DJ with the fusion options and had an Electric Violinist and Electric Guitarists Play!!

Peter & the Master Keys is not only a great jazz band with vocals, it's also an energetic dance band specializing in the best soul, blues, and rock n' roll from the 50s and 60s plus a few more contemporary numbers to round out the set. Think Sinatra and Nat King Cole early in the night and then Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Elvis and more later on. The idea is to play fun and energetic music that is timeless and can inspire guests of all ages to dance. We also perform as a trio and quartet for smaller occasions or cocktail parties. Packages include ceremony music, MC, jazz cocktail hour, and dance music.

Peter, along with all the incredible musicians in the band were amazing in every aspect. Before the wedding Peter and I worked through a variety of details and music ideas to create the night we imagined. With complete professionalism, they were on time, set up quick and each band member we met was truly a joy and excited to be there. This came through in the music. Once the party started we danced all night. I had a steady stream of people telling me how incredible the band is and asking, "where did you find these guys?" Barb and I had an amazing time and Peter and the band felt like friends that night. and their cool factor is 100. Your new fans. Barb and Alan

They were so amazing, responsible and attentive. My husband and I told them all we cared about was that it was one big party and they made sure to make that happen. They knew exactly what songs needed to be played at the right time and kept everyone on their feet all night. I can’t tell you how many people specifically complemented them specifically!
