Brian is one of the best wedding DJs in the business. In the past two years I’ve been to eight different weddings. Brian was the DJ for three of the eight, and the party/reception component of the events was never more fun than when Brian was driving the bus. He is an east coast DJ, but he spun tracks at both of my sister-in-laws’ weddings and as we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding we reached out just to see what he would charge for a wedding in Chicago. Turns out the price was right. Brian traveled to Chicago, MC’d our entire wedding, brought all of the equipment necessary and made our day exceptional in every way. I think there are a few things that really set Brian apart from other wedding DJs. Anyone can stand there and run through a playlist, but Brian went off book a few times to match and capture the energy of the guests. As we were in the midst of the planning process he added zero stress, and just calmly walked us through the process of selecting songs. He had suggestions and recommendations along the way. He even brought an extra speaker so that we could plug our digital piano in and the pianist would be able to play loudly enough. Overall, we can’t recommend Brian highly enough. You will not regret choosing him to DJ at your wedding, party, event. Whatever it is, Brian is a huge value add and a pleasure to work with.

Joe and his team were incredible! All of our guests are STILL talking about how great Joe was - he picked perfect songs that were a hit with our crowd across generations and included some of our all time favorites as well. We gave him a few do not plays and just a couple must plays, but he handled the rest perfectly!! Fine Tune Entertainment has an easy to use planning website, where we were able to edit our timeline and song choices throughout the process - this helped keep everything super organized. Joe was excellent at keeping the schedule moving with speeches, photos and dancing. We also used Fine Tune Entertainment's sister company for the photo booth which was incredibly high quality and a major HIT with our guests. They had the option to get digital copies or take home a printed one! We added 10 up lights to our space as well and Joe perfectly managed color changes to enhance the party vibe. We highly recommend Joe & Fine Tune Entertainment to couples in the Boston/MA area because of the incredible music played, the calm demeanor and excellent communication throughout the process! Definitely add the photo booth if you can, it was so worth it :)

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!

Our June 2024 wedding at Quidnessett Country Club was everything we dreamed of and more, thanks to Shane! From the very beginning, he was so easy to talk to and made planning such a breeze. He was confident, organized, and really listened to what we wanted, which made the whole process so much less stressful. Knowing we had him running the show on our big day let us just relax and enjoy every moment. The reception was an absolute blast! The dance floor was packed all night, and Shane kept the energy high with the perfect mix of music. Our guests had so much fun dancing, and we’re still hearing about how amazing the party was. On top of that, the Photo Booth was a huge hit! People couldn’t get enough of it, and we love having all the hilarious pictures as memories from the night. If you’re looking for someone who’s professional, fun, and truly knows how to throw a party, Shane is your guy. Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable!

Bill was the best decision we made in planning our wedding. He was in frequent communication, listened to us and help us along the way. He made the whole process completely stress free.

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.

We really enjoyed working with Graeme for our recent wedding. Our guests made a point to come to us during the reception and say how much they enjoyed the music selection. He was well prepared and helped us to maintain our desired schedule for the reception.

Luke Renchan Entertainment, Inc.

  • Starts at $1,700
  • Serves Block Island, RI

Luke’s originally started as a Record Store by the name Luke’s Record Exchange, started by Luke T Renchan. As years progressed, Luke T decided to start a Disc Jockey Company in 1983. This was an instant success. Before long, Luke T had eight employees doing events for him. Many years passed and his son Luke B showed an interest in what his father was doing. At the age of 9, Luke B would accompany his father and observing every move he made. Gradually he was allowed to make steps till he was able to do his own events.

I cannot thank Luke Renchan Entertainment enough for saving me just two weeks before my wedding when my original DJ fell through. From the start, Luke was calming, quick to respond, and an extremely good communicator, making us feel safe and taken care of. We had the pleasure of working with DJ Joe Henriques, and he was incredible! We had the best time with him! Our venue posed a bit of a challenge, with the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dancing outside and dinner inside an 1800s inn. DJ Joe handled everything perfectly, and he was an amazing master of ceremonies! Before the wedding, we had a call with DJ Joe to discuss our songs and ideas. He truly understood our vision and collaborated with us on the day, which put us at ease. His energy was amazing and infectious, setting the tone for a fun celebration. Our guests had so much fun the entire night, and DJ Joe's mixes were fantastic! Friends are still talking about how much fun dancing was! We felt SO taken care of, and I highly recommend Luke Renchan Entertainment and DJ Joe to anyone looking for an exceptional DJ experience!

Alex was AMAZING! He was so organized and professional before and during the wedding. Our timing was a little off due to photos taking a little longer than expected and he adjusted our timeline without us asking. He even confirmed a later cake cutting with the caterer before telling us. The photo booth was also a huge hit. The music went with the vibe and even the lighting! Absolutely perfect. And definitely within our budget!

Awarded Best of Zola
Everything about Pocket Change was a perfect addition to our wedding. Choosing our band was a major priority for us, as we know from experience they can make or break the reception. Pocket Change was everything we wanted, and more. From our first meeting with them, we felt comfortable and heard. They did a fantastic job of listening to our preferences and adapting that to what they were best at to deliver a great performance. They also did a great job of suggesting additions to our "must plays" that really went with the vibe we were looking for. Also, as a side note, the bride is a teacher, and we loved that Pocket Change is a band of music teachers! In addition to being absolutely perfect as a wedding band, they were also extremely affordable! We worked with some amazing vendors all around, but Pocket Change is the first review we're writing, because we really wanted to thank them for what they did to make our day special. We had a miscommunication with our venue about who was in charge of ceremony audio, and Pocket Change was able to jump in last minute to provide audio for the ceremony. They also let one of the bride's best friends join them on stage to sing Dancing Queen, which was so special for the bride and groom. There was a small issue with the wireless microphone during speeches, and their technician was able to jump in and solve it immediately! They were great at going with the flow and making situations that could have been stressful not at all. In almost every conversation we have had with guests since our wedding, someone has brought up what a great band they were. Hire Pocket Change - you will not be disappointed!!!

The Golden Scroll Soloists have been wowing Northeast audiences with a variety of styles for 20 years, melding familiar songs you love into an elegant string quartet experience. We helped popularize the "crossover string quartet", much like the Vitamin String Quartet, during the early days of classical crossover. Our style, now made mainstream by Bridgerton, predated the Netflix hit show by 15 years. We're ready to play for your ceremony, your cocktail hour, or maybe even your reception. Choose from a string quartet, string trio, string duo, or violin soloist. Let's start planning the soundtrack to your happily ever after!

If we could give Golden Scroll Soloists 1,000 stars we would! Kevin was extremely organized and knowledgeable in preparing for the wedding. There are soooo many song choices to choose from! The music at the ceremony was so incredibly beautiful that our priest stopped to recognize them a number of times! I could’ve listened to them play for hours—absolutely amazing! We also had them at cocktail hour at our venue and it was such a fun vibe! So many of our guests came up to us throughout the night to tell us how wonderful the strings were—they loved it! We really can’t thank Kevin and his crew enough for making our wedding truly everything we dreamed of—absolute PERFECTION!

Our 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 experienced DJs, we know how to read the crowd and play the right music at the right time to keep the dance floor moving.

I love music and I love playing the music everyone else loves. Playing weddings is my favorite type of event because of the diversity of people and couples I welcome to the dance floor through my thoughtful and inclusive play list. I hope you consult with me to learn how I can make this possible.

Alto Music & Entertainment was exceptional in every way for our wedding day. From the very first interaction, their communication was clear, professional, and timely. Josh, the DJ, was warm and kind throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - Josh is an incredibly talented musician and public speaker who made our ceremony so special by playing live violin as I walked down the aisle and keeping our guests entertained during the reception party. His performance was nothing short of amazing, and I would choose him over and over again. If you're looking for wedding entertainment that is both professional and incredibly talented, I can't recommend Alto Music & Entertainment enough!
