Team Topedo, We wanted to send a HUGE thank you to the entire team. You all helped make our wedding an absolute blast! The dancing on a cloud made for some fantastic videos and pictures, the uplighting really added some nice ambiance for dinner and set the tone for the reception, and the glow sticks just really brought the party to life! The video turned out amazing! Last weekend, we watched the full ceremony edit, theatrical trailer, and gameday entrance. The attention to detail during the filming and with the audio, video, and transition in the final project was astounding. Your seamless integration with our photographer, the other vendors, and the guests made everything feel natural. The videos are some of our most cherished keepsakes. The groomsmen really appreciated the Gameday clip, which turned out perfectly! Wow! We asked you to get the party started after dinner and keep the dance floor packed...and you delivered! The music hit everything we wanted: every genre, transitions and mixups, even non-wedding songs - they were all mixed in seamlessly. The attention to detail in our song/artist/genre suggestions and ability to read the crowd was incredible! All the guests raved about the music selection, and our guests had a very eclectic collection of music tastes. Everyone was out on the dance floor all night - it was perfect! We had MULTIPLE guests tell us this was one of the most fun weddings they had ever attended - and one of the guests was a former professional wedding planner! We cannot recommend you highly enough and have dropped your name in any conversations we have in evolving weddings, videography, or DJs. Thank you for such an incredible wedding and such unforgettable memories!

Awarded Best of Zola
Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

Awarded Best of Zola
Daryle (DJ D Mac) created the exact vibe we were craving for our wedding. After multiple postponements due to COVID, our guests were ready to dance and celebrate like never before. We asked Daryle to create a dance-club-like atmosphere where everyone could let loose—and he absolutely delivered. Every time we asked our guests what they thought of the wedding, they raved about how incredibly fun the dance floor was. From start to finish, Daryle was organized, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. His deep understanding of mixing music and his uncanny ability to read the room and adjust to the energy were particularly impressive. We also had a few unique requests, like including a drag queen lip sync performance. Daryle coordinated seamlessly with our performer, making it a highlight of the night. He also went above and beyond to ensure our first dances were perfectly timed and elegantly handled. If you’re looking for a DJ who will elevate your event, we couldn’t recommend DJ D Mac more highly. He made our wedding unforgettable, and we’re so grateful for his talent and professionalism.

24k Event Band 
Rating: 5.0 (10 reviews)
Washington, DC
  • Band or Ensemble

24k Event Band is THE DMV's ultimate entertainment experience. Quick to respond, flexible, personable, with outstanding vocals, musicians and leadership, your party will be the one to beat. 24k is a premium experience from the first call to the very end. It is our goal to make certain we meet your expectations and will work with you to create your vision in every way. I couldn't be more proud to share this band with the DMV, and I know you will be as thrilled as I am, from the first organizing steps to the last note! Recent news: 24k is proud to have been chosen as the entertainment for the National Women's Art Museum in October!

Every time someone asks me what the highlight of our wedding was, I laugh — because as much as I loved each moment that I spent with my new husband, the real answer is THE BAND. From the second those opening chords of “Hot To Go” hit, I genuinely felt like I had died and gone to heaven. The energy was unreal. The dance floor was packed, the vibe was electric, and it was everything I had dreamed of and more. The lead singers were not only exceptionally talented, but also so kind, warm, and gracious. I have a musical background, and after a martini, I felt brave enough to join this marvelous band on stage, and they made me feel like an absolute rockstar (even though I’m quite sure I didn’t sound like one). Their presence and energy completely transformed the night. Our wedding would not have been the same without them — I truly mean that with my whole heart. And I have to give a special shoutout to the bass player — his energy was infectious! I seriously wanted to run over and give him the biggest hug. You could just feel how much joy the whole band brought to the stage. If you’re considering booking this band — DO IT. I am officially their #1 fan and will sing their praises to anyone who will listen. Thank you for giving us the most unforgettable night of our lives.

Kelton from Marquee Artists is awesome - he killed it dj-ing for the clients, the dance floor was non-stop going nuts the whole time! His demeanor is super low-key and easy going, and he was very easy to work with, which means a lot in this field. Weddings have lots of moving parts and can be chaotic, but having vendors that are kind and willing to work as a team makes the day go a whole lot smoother. The couple had lots of requests for songs in completely different genres, but he managed to keep the party going with no awkward pauses and seamless transitions. I highly recommend hiring him if you want someone that's going to work well with everyone and make sure to light the dance floor on fire!

Electrifying, riveting, simply on fire! These are just a few quotes from reviews of Nightsong, one of the hottest and most well-respected dance bands in the country. With past and present satisfied clients such as the International Monetary Fund, The NFL, Marriott Intl., Frito Lay, The Preakness (to name a few), and countless weddings/private events in the DC/Baltimore area and beyond, Nightsong has become the "go-to" for clients and event planners seeking high energy, world-class musicianship, and a level of professionalism that puts events "over the top!

Nightsong made our wedding absolutely perfect! In a call with the band leader, Bennett (who is the nicest person ever), I gave the direction that I want to party all night and give our guests a reason to not sit down. Boy, did Nightsong deliver!! 3 days later and my calves still hurt from dancing so much, and we have the best pictures of the dance floor being PACKED the entire night. The singers were amazing and the guitarist was unreal (he even did a guitar solo at the end that everyone was raving about). I even have some friends getting married end of next year who may be booking because they loved the band so much!! Cannot recommend them enough- seriously, just book them, you will be thankful you did.

Free Spirit

Washington, DC
  • Band/dj

Free Spirit is the number one choice in the Washington DC and Baltimore areas for dance music, with a wide variety of tunes designed to keep your feet moving. The key to a memorable wedding reception, corporate party, fundraiser, or political event, is a band that brings a high-energy, customized set list, with great visual effects and crowd interaction.

WOW - booking Free Spirit was the best decision we made for our wedding day, besides getting married :). Their talent was unparalleled, and we had countless guests comment that this was the best wedding band that they had ever seen and and asking "who is this band and how did you find them?!" One friend even asked if we thought that they would fly out to Spain for her upcoming wedding! Their set list was a mix of great oldies (still smiling when we watch back videos of their cover of "Best of My Love" with all of our guests on the dance floor - truly phenomenal) and 2000s/pop songs. People literally didn't budge off of the dance floor for 3 hours. All this, and their pricing was incredibly reasonable, especially for bringing all of the vocalists, horn players, etc that they did. We cannot recommend Free Spirit highly enough; you will NOT be disappointed.

The band’s smooth vocal harmonies, powerful rhythm section and optional trumpet and trombone, will keep your guests on the dance floor… long past Midnight.

They were one of the most exceptional parts of our wedding, and we will be forever grateful to them for making our day so joyous and fun.
