Absolutely!  There is no additional cost if the ceremony and reception are in separate spaces at the same venue. An additional fee will be applied if they are at different venues.

It’s perfect for adding a stylish glow to your space, highlighting architectural features, or setting the mood during dinner and dancing.

Every couple has a unique vibe, and we tailor the music to match yours. The songs you include on your request list help us understand your style and preferences, and from there, we build a playlist that feels like you.

We're experienced in reading the room and blending genres to keep guests of all ages engaged and the dance floor packed. From classics to current hits, line dances to slow jams, we’ve got you covered. No two weddings are the same, and we’re here to make sure your soundtrack is unforgettable.

I'm glad you asked. 196 (one-nine-six) represents Matthew 19:6 “So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together let no one separate." We thought this was perfect for us as a husband & wife team and representative of our business as a wedding DJ company.
