Brian truly went above and beyond for our wedding day. He was so flexible during the planning process when I was having trouble making up my mind and offered suggestions to help make the day run smoothly (and it did!). I feel like I'm pretty picky about music and was anxious about how everything would flow together, but Brian did such an amazing job. He eased my mind in our meetings leading up to the big day and especially the day of. Not one hiccup or wrong song the whole night! I can't recommend him enough. You are MISSING OUT if you don't choose him to be your wedding DJ!

I cannot say enough good things about Andrew & his team. Andrew worked with me to surprise my wife with a prerecorded message to play right before I walked down the aisle. He made my vision a reality and let me tell you the tears were flowing from everyone! I cannot thank him enough! Andrew and his team did an amazing job all night! He’s not just a DJ, he’s a hype man!! He kept the crowd on the dance floor all night long, playing absolute killer songs. His fun, upbeat, and personable personality made the entire night so fun!! I would recommend Andrew to anyone, any occasion, EVERY day!!! I know choosing vendors is stressful because there’s so many, but trust me, you will NOT be disappointed using Upchurch for your event!!

My husband and I used Direct Entertainment for our DJ and videographer for our wedding and we could not be more pleased!! The team was professional, great at communication, very kind and professional, and they helped make our day absolutely perfect! Jeff, our DJ kept the dance floor alive ALL NIGHT!! When the music had to stop at the end of the night, the dance floor was still completely full and no one wanted it to end. He did a great job announcing the events of the night, made sure that our ceremony music was perfect, and he stuck to our wedding playlist with the exception for a couple guest requests (which we were happy to allow). We were so happy and thankful to have Jeff there! Sie, our videographer also did a wonderful job! We have not yet received our video as our wedding was less than 2 weeks ago, but I already know it is going to be amazing. He was so great with communication, was prompt with his timing, and he even set up a second camera for guests to break away and give us well wishes for our marriage, which I'm so excited to watch back. He was very professional and wonderful to work with. We decided to add videography at the last minute because we thought we might regret not having it, and I am SO happy we asked Jim at Direct Entertainment if they had someone available for our day just a month before, and they did!! Jim, the coordinator at Direct Entertainment frequently checked in with us, asked us questions about ourselves, and genuinely made us feel like he cared about us and our special day. He was great to work with leading up to being assigned our designated DJ and videographer, and even after, he checked in to make sure we were happy and that all of the planning was going well. Overall, we would 1000% recommend Direct Entertainment for any wedding entertainment needs! I know they also offer several other services that we did not utilize, and I'm sure they are wonderful as well! Photos courtesy of Lang at Wandering Wolf Photography.

Jeremy with Jamz Events provided the music and acted as MC for my wedding and a wedding of a friend. The weddings were different environments and a different crowd, but Jeremy created the perfect atmosphere for both. He was completely stress free to work with, gave good insight and recommendations on song choice where my wife and I had no strong ideas, and most importantly the dance floor was non-stop fun all night. I can’t recommend this business enough, you won’t regret it!!

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.
