Your wedding is YOUR day! At Ultimate Beats Entertainment, our biggest goal is to make your vision come to life. We customize a plan for your wedding, party, or event that incorporates both dance floor-filling DJ sets and live performances. Join together with your friends and family, get down to great music, and make magical memories.

“We cannot thank Ultimate Beats ENOUGH for the fun they brought to our wedding reception!! We had over 300 people at our wedding, and Martin kept the dance floor rocking all night long. There was never a dull moment when it wasn't jam packed with friends and family having a fantastic time! We are over a month after our big day now, and we are STILL getting compliments from our guests for the "amazing DJ" we had at our reception who played "all of the right tunes"! My husband and I also greatly appreciated their flexibility in letting us curate the playlist for the evening. This definitely set them apart from other DJs we spoke with! We are already looking for the next excuse to hire Ultimate Beats for an event again! They are incredible and so easy to work with! Also, we asked for the CO2 cannon in our package which was a HIT. Just something extra to spice up the fun. Ultimate Beats also provided the photobooth for our photo guestbook!”

But Keagan went above and beyond and helped make everything run so smoothly! Set-up would have been a nightmare without her. She totally saw my vision, and took care of everything so I could enjoy the day without thinking about decorations/logistics. THANK YOU Keagan, this was the best money we spend on the wedding, and if I could do it again I would have hired Keagan as our full-on day-of coordinator. HIGHLY recommend.”

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids! At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, in 2021 I launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

“Matt provided his services for my husband and I this past weekend for our wedding, and we have nothing but good things to say! When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth. It was a huge hit at our wedding.”

Serves Cottage Hills, IL

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

“Victoria is absolutely amazing. Every time I work on her team things run effortlessly and I never have to worry about anything. She's on top of her timeline and where every piece of the puzzle should be fitting. Highly recommend.”

I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

“Emily Novara Photography provided excellent communication through the entire engagement, wedding planning, and day-of process. Emily even provided a detailed day-of itinerary and revised it as needed as we got closer to the wedding. The quality of their work and overall experience was amazing. Emily is so friendly and we felt so comfortable from the minute we met her. She did an incredible job on the wedding day, arriving early and not only taking amazing photographs and poses, but also keeping us organized and on track the entire day, which was crucial with a party of 20 adults. Emily went above and beyond in every aspect of being our photographer for the wedding day, and I can't picture our wedding day without her. We look forward to having her as our go-to photographer for any future events!”

Rice + Co. Events was founded in March 2022 as Charley Rice Weddings with the vision of bringing intimacy and personality back into weddings. Charley was ordained by the American Marriage Ministries that same month and began performing ceremonies shortly after. In January of 2023, she began accepting coordination clients as well. Since then the business has grown almost entirely from word-of-mouth. Currently, Charley Rice Weddings offers three comprehensive officiating packages and two comprehensive coordination packages in addition to event rentals, honeymoon planning, and other add-ons.

“Charley and her team were impeccable. They coordinated with our vendors, wedding party, and family members, so that we didn't have to respond to a thousand messages. Her team was present, friendly, and in full problem-solving mode as we got ready that morning. Her emergency kit came in handy, and she even steamed my dress for me while I got my makeup done.

“Amy is one of the nicest people you will ever meet! I booked Manifesting Beauty for my 04/01 wedding and I was not disappointed. My trials went over smoothly. And my wedding day was a blast. Amy and her colleagues are so easy to work with and really listen to their clients. Could not have asked for a better experience or team!”
