Great music is at the heart of everything we do. We tap into our 100+ collective years of professional experience to craft a musical experience as unique as our clients’ events. We don’t just know the best music to play, we know how songs fit together to create a sense of flow resulting in a dynamic dance floor every time. We know the difference between creating the life of the party and being the life of the party. To the uninitiated, this may seem like a minor detail, but it makes all the difference to our clients.
- Personalized music selections as well as recommendations to pack the dance floor
- Professional DJs that know how to work within a variety of venue settings and timeline demands, as well as be the Master of Ceremonies that adapts to your own personality and style
- High quality, professional-grade sound systems throughout the event spaces
- LED uplighting

- open format photo booth
We offer complete DJ and audio services, covering:
- our 100+ years of collective DJ experience curating and mixing music for epic dance parties
- great sound everywhere it is needed
- all music research/purchases (if we don’t have it, we’ll get it, at no additional cost to you)
- 3 professional custom song edits*
- access to our easy-to-use event management and planning system, Basecamp
- the security and confidence of our own emergency DJ backup system
- travel within 65 miles of event destination**
When you book one of our wedding packages you benefit from:
*Need a shorter first dance, but want something more sophisticated than a nerve-wracking fade-out halfway into the song? No problem, we’ll create a smooth custom edit and send it to you long before your wedding day
**For destinations over 250 miles away, please contact us directly for a custom quote that includes travel and accommodation fees.
As you can already tell, we do things just a little differently. So rather than name our DJ packages after gems or precious minerals, we’ve named our packages after classic soul singers, from Frankie Lymon (our smallest service package) to James Brown (our biggest, most expansive service package).
