If you are contemplating the price, let me just say it is worth every penny and more! These guys went above and beyond their roles. DJ Scott was amazing and made all of our emo dreams come true. He rolled with the flow and even helped us get back on track when our timeline got messed up! The photobooth was also worth every bit and we even got the cutest photo book with all the fun pictures everyone took!! Keith helped so much dealing with our crowd, wild nephew and even helped hang our neon sign! We will recommend this company to everyone and for sure use them for future events!

Whether crafting a great flow for a couple's ceremony and reception, hosting a specialty game to keep guests engaged, or breaking out the tailored jams for dance time, elevating each event is his #1 passion.

Awarded Best of Zola
Wow! Gabriel and his team were not just a DJ service with a boxed playlist. Gabriel showed up as a grand Master of Ceremonies for our reception, elevating our event with interactive entertainment that kept our guests engaged and smiling the whole night. From the prep interviews beforehand, on-que ceremony music and properly tuned mics, all the way through the non-stop party of our reception, GDG Elevated Events delivered the best day of our lives! We added on the mirror photobooth that attracted every guest and filled a picture perfect guest book we'll enjoy for years to come. One thing to note again, this is not a DJ who just plays canned music, he cares about you, your guests, and the full production, so that does take time and a few prep meetings to get all the details ironed out. All we can say is #worthit!

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.

Thank you so much to DJ Greg Gioia from Blue Moon Beats for providing the best music, vibes and energy on my wedding day! My husband and I couldn’t thank you enough. Greg was great at communication, organized, knew how to keep everyone dancing all night, always played the right songs at the right time, followed the timeline 100%, and our guests had a blast! My wedding was Mexican/American wedding and all of our guests danced the whole time and enjoyed the wedding thanks to Greg knowing that and him being able to mix my Spanish music and American music for my husband’s guests which I’m so happy he did! He was great at reading the crowd to keep the energy going. The dancing lights and uplights made the reception feel more fun!! The dancing on the clouds for my first dance with my husband was the most romantic thing ever!! I absolutely loved it and even my guests commented on how dancing on the clouds made the dance 100 times more adorable, dreamy and fun. I highly recommend DJ Greg for any event!! If you want a dance floor full of people dancing, singing and happy, go with Greg! Thank you again for making my wedding day unforgettable!!

Luxus Vitae was the perfect choice for our wedding entertainment. From the very first interaction, Scott was incredibly professional, friendly, and easy-going. His communication throughout the planning process was effective, ensuring we were on the same page every step of the way. On the day of the wedding, he delivered an outstanding performance. His acoustic rendition of "Blackbird" as my wife walked down the aisle was truly beautiful, and the energetic DJ sets had everyone dancing all night long. The quality of the work was top-notch, and the aesthetic he created with the additional lighting package was simply stunning.

We hired Graingertainment through research and recommendation of our planner. We got to work with DJ Nick and he was super cool. He helped us to have the emo wedding of our dreams mixed in with salsa, hip-hop, disco, and others. He kept the whole crowd dancing and even let me hop on the mic to sing later in the night when we were turning up. He made sure there was never dead space on the dance floor and had something for everyone. He truly made our night so memorable and met all of our requests for ceremony and cocktail hour as well. Also, the uplighting looked awesome, don't skip out on it.

DJ SaWRose

  • DJ

  • Serves Weir, TX

Saroj James Hyoju, got into DJ industry upon walking into Latin club in Dallas, Texas in 2015. Coming from band background, he was surprised to see how people were moved by “Gasolina”, a reggaeton song. Observing how DJ was controlling the crowd’s energy while enjoying himself, this made him curious about club music genres, besides metal and rock. Following immediately, he hosted a Bring Your Own Beer (BYOB) house party, where 50 people showed up. A week later, he was invited to co-DJ at one of his friends’ wedding reception and rest is the history.

Great Versatile and flexible Wedding DJ. Great to work as a partnering vendor. DJ Saroj ensures there is no communication gap during the project process and ensures great attention to detail in working with any vendors. While working together, he proactively asks us if we are fine with lights being turned off before opening the dance floor and make sure we have enough of event photo coverage. That level of care and professionalism is beyond our imagination. We always feel very welcomed and we are always excited working with him.

DJ Ivan with Ivan Ent LLC, Musician was an absolute joy to work with for our wedding. As a 28 year old bride and 33 year old groom we wanted a fun, high-energy reception to keep our diverse 100 person guestlist dancing all night. We had many guests/family from the, Rio Grande Valley and Venezuela, along with many friends from all over the US and from all cultures. He smoothly integrated must-play songs and requests in both English and Spanish to keep everyone happy and dancing, just as we'd hoped. Ivan was kind, approachable, and professional in all of our communications leading up to the big day. He provided a very detailed questionnaire to make sure he fully understood the vibe we were going for. Ivan's experience and knowledge of weddings really showed in his song choices and MC skills. We chose to add on an audio guestbook and dancing on the clouds also through DJ Ivan that really enhanced the party. We were thrilled that Ivan helped make our wedding celebration exactly what we imagined. I would enthusiastically recommend him to any engaged couple looking for an exceptional DJ.

I love making the wedding a special event for the couple. My job is the dancefloor. I rate myself based on how many people stayed on the dancefloor and for how long. My clients will tell you that people stay on the dancefloor most of the night on my events. Because I do a lot of homework before every event in preparing all the music they selected. Making sure it can please all the generations, and which songs could I sing myself. I'm passionate about making your day the wildest party imaginable!

Goga is legendary! My wife loved listening to him so much that I think she would have moved our wedding date to make it possible for him to attend. (Fortunately, we double checked with his availability before sending out save the dates). And he wow'd the crowd even more than we thought possible. Thank you Goga for helping make the night so special! His energy, vocals, talent are all top notch. Highly highly highly recommend.

He offered a discount if we paid in cash and threw in extras like uplighting which really helped set the mood.

Philip and Good Musicians were truly incredible for our wedding! They provided the string duo for our ceremony, the guitarist during cocktail hour, and a 7 piece band including a male and female singer. Our guests even commented how good the guitarist was during cocktail hour! They played a wide variety of music including Spanish music, classics, country, alternative, pop etc., and nailed every song! They also did the Hora for us as well. The singers (male singer-Philip is the band manager) and the female singer sounded amazing live! The band and the DJ during the band breaks kept the energy alive all night. Philip was super responsive, even up until the day before the wedding when we made a few minor changes to song choices. We are so grateful we could have them for our wedding.

My name is Rogelio (Roger) Sanchez aka DJ Konkocshun. It all began while in H.S., a buddy of mine (I consider him my brother) was a DJ and I used to tag along and even help him mix some tracks. After H.S. I joined the Marine Corps and after several years, I continued to get the itch of mixing music and missed playing on the turntables. After an experience we had with another DJ for a personal event, I decided to give it a go. I love mixing different genres of music and the excitement of people enjoying themselves while on the dance floor or bobbing their heads in their seats. I practice my craft daily to present a beautiful experience.
