Luvdup is the best, and Kelton is the best! We loved talking to Gemma on our intro call, and were so grateful to have Kelton DJ our wedding. Starting with our planning call it was clear we were in great hands with Kelton, who helped us figure out the finer details of our plan, and made a couple of recommendations that helped us make the day even better. On the day he showed up early to make sure things were set up properly (something our venue and planner were particularly appreciative of), ran the mics for the ceremony which went off without a hitch (except for the obligatory sirens during our vows), and played amazing music all night long. We had assembled hours and hours of playlists — it felt like Kelton intuited all of the important songs and played them at the right time — everything was flawless. Most importantly, it felt like Kelton loved being a part of our day — chatting with us and the other guests and vendors, taking photos and videos. He kept the good vibes going all night. Thank you Kelton and Luvdup!

LPE was FABULOUS at our end of April wedding! My guests still talk about how fun our wedding was because of the amazing live music. All three guys that performed were so KIND, FUN, and PROFESSIONAL! They played a variety of genres and even did a song or two in Spanish. We were so impressed. We requested a sweetheart dance for just my new husband and I, and LPE sang and played it perfectly - it was so special!

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.

If you are looking for more than just a DJ, if you are looking for the undeniable energy that will make your wedding an unforgettable party, look no further than DJ Don X. From our very first meeting, Don X understood our vision completely. We were planning a vibrant fusion of our cultures, a blend of Asian and African-American traditions, and we wanted a celebration that honored both sides with authenticity, joy, and respect. He worked with us to create a playlist that seamlessly wove together classic Motown and Afrobeat with Bhangra, Bollywood, and modern pop hits. He curated the perfect musical journey for our day. Don X was a legend at the reception! He masterfully read the room from the very first beat. He started with soulful classics that got our older relatives on their feet, slowly built the energy with 90s R&B anthems that had everyone singing along. We are not exaggerating when we say the dance floor was PACKED for over two hours straight. DJ Don X, thank you.

Music by Anthem was a wonderful addition to our wedding day. Chelle, the violinist, was so warm and kind in our interactions leading up to the day, and assured us during the prep that she was a prompt person and that she'd arrive quite early to the venue before our event - sounds like a small thing, but her integrity and commitment really gave us such peace of mind when we were focusing on all the other details of our wedding day. Chelle's beautiful violin playing was perfect as a solo performer, and her services were very reasonably priced. Getting to pick her setlist was amazing, and she happily learned several songs she didn't know, including the one we walked down the aisle to. Chelle is so talented and clearly loves to share her craft with others. We are so grateful for her helping to make our special day truly memorable!
