Our DJ was absolutely amazing! From the ceremony to the last dance, he nailed every moment. The music was perfectly timed, the transitions were seamless, and he read the crowd so well—everyone was on the dance floor all night long! He brought such great energy and made sure the vibe stayed fun and upbeat throughout the entire evening. So many of our guests told us it was one of the most fun weddings they’ve ever been to, and a huge part of that was because of him. Truly the best—we can’t recommend him enough!

We love her! Our wedding was so much fun and everyone keeps telling us the D.J. was amazing and we agree. She was a quick responder and was always easy to reach. She played a variety of genres and took requests so everyone felt included. I have honestly never seen a wedding where almost everyone was on the dance floor the whole night. Our main priority was having a really good dj and we achieved that by far thanks to her. We are so thankful for her contribution to our big day and if you’re thinking of booking, do it you will not regret it!

Spark Notes

  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves Venice, FL

Music is the language of our souls. Beyond our own personal enjoyment, we've spent time and effort to find like minded performers who are talented, energetic, and above all reliable. Professional and musician are two words that are not often imagined together: we aim a little higher and prefer the term "Full-time Entertainer" ;)

"I had the pleasure of having Alfonso & Gene perform for my wedding ceremony/reception. They absolutely rocked! I had a bit of a snafu when there was no where to plug in their equipment at the ceremony. Their quick thinking saved it. They played some soft acoustic music and sang softly in the background. They selected the perfect songs on the fly. I absolutely loved the song choice of Hallelujah during the ceremony! They are so creative and thoughtful in the way they perform. The mix of Pumped up Kicks with Seminole Wind blew my mind! I cannot thank you both enough. You made my day perfect and I would recommend your services to anyone in need of a rockin' party band. Spark Notes, is the best choice I could have made for great entertainment. Keep on Rockin!"

We cannot recommend DJ Eddie enough! He went above and beyond to help me execute a surprise for my husband during our ceremony, which involved playing a special song featuring the voice of his late mother. It was executed flawlessly and turned out to be one of my husband’s favorite moments of the entire day. As for the reception, the dance floor was never empty! Even family members who rarely dance were out there having a blast. So many guests told us, “The DJ was playing all the best tunes!” His song selections and transitions were perfect, keeping the energy high and everyone engaged. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, detail-oriented, and truly knows how to create unforgettable moments, look no further. They made our wedding absolutely magical!

After a long career DJing clubs, radio, and more I can honestly say nothing is more rewarding than weddings. Just knowing that my music bonds families and helps them enjoy themselves on their most important day is a feeling that can't be replicated at any other gig. When I began getting requested for weddings, I saw a void for club DJs in the industry, so I picked the best and started Shut Down Productions. In addition to our DJ & MC services, we have grown to be a one stop shop by also offering photo booths, lighting, special effects and more to make your celebration even better.

DJ Chocolate Rain was amazing. He had the entire attendance on the dance floor and was interactive with everyone! He kept the party going and was also super in tune with what we wanted the vibe to be! On top of all of this he was extremely professional and even made multiple short videos of our wedding ceremony and reception. Would recommend to everyone!! Even months after our wedding our friends are talking about DJ chocolate rain and the hype he brought!

JUST THE MELODY BAND (JTM) is an all-star cast featuring a Grammy nominee and voices featured in tv/film and theatre. Led by singer, songwriter, and recording artist Melody Rodriguez, the band can be heard in numerous styles such as Latin Pop, Boy Bands and 90’s nostalgia, while authentically performing standards and classics with powerhouse vocals.

Awarded Best of Zola
When looking for a band for a multicultural wedding, we knew they had to be special. Just the Melody was the first band we reached out to and it was clear from the onset that we didn’t have to look any further because we knew they were the ones. Throughout the entire experience, Melody and Edvin were an absolute dream to work with. They were incredibly responsive and took the planning process seriously while also keeping it fun. We were able to have multiple planning meetings where they clearly listened to our vision and more specifically the energy we were hoping to bring to the entire evening. Our wedding included multiple different musical moments that Just the Melody was able to provide with aplomb. The ceremony was romantic instrumental music that transitioned to modern pop instrumentals during the first half of the cocktail hour. Then a Mariachi band took over the second half of the cocktail hour with Melody providing gorgeous vocals for a few songs before the 12-piece band took over the magic for the rest of the night. The band with Edvin as MC matched the energy of our guests the entire night in a way we never expected. After our first dance, a beautiful rendition of Luis Miguel’s”Por Debajo De La Mesa”, the band moved right into a wondrous lineup of Latin music including Cumbia, Bachata, and Salsa that got our guests up and on their feet. From that point forward the dancing was nonstop with both American and Latin music filling the air. They also helped us celebrate the joining of our Jewish and Latino cultures by playing the Hora followed by La Vibora De La Mar. Edvin and Melody worked well with our venue to time our fathers’ speeches when our guests paused for a moment to eat and they were thoughtful with the tempo of the night by pairing this with our father/bride and mother/groom dances. After dinner they brought the energy right back up and we even got to see some of Edvin’s unreal dance moves when the 90s/2000s pop music started up. We could absolutely not believe it when they allowed us to come on stage and belt out one of our favorite songs (Jimmy Eat World’s “The Middle”). It was a living dream (especially for the bride). We cannot say enough how much both of us and all of our guests absolutely adored Just the Melody. We have been told multiple times by our guests that they didn't expect to go to a concert along with our wedding and that they loved every minute of it. And we did too. The music the entire evening was exceptional and better than anything we could have come up with in our wildest dreams for the evening. Thank you Melody, Edvin and the entire Just the Melody crew - we could not have chosen better for our wedding!!

I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing DJ GQ's services at my wife and my 10-year vow renewal, and I can't say enough about how incredible he was. As a couple from different cultural backgrounds, we wanted someone who could seamlessly blend our traditions and create a harmonious atmosphere. Jerry exceeded our expectations in every way. Jerry's ability to connect with the crowd was truly remarkable. He had a natural talent for reading the room and ensuring that everyone was engaged and enjoying themselves. Whether it was the upbeat tunes that got everyone dancing or the more slower songs that got couples close, he had an understanding of what our guests needed, and he delivered flawlessly. The playlist was well-rounded, incorporating both Haitian and American music which also appealed to all age groups. It was clear that he had taken the time to understand our preferences and the musical traditions of both our backgrounds. Jerry's communication leading up to the event was also top-notch.
