Make the night
even bigger.

A photo booth that packs a line. A sax player riding the DJ set, or a string duo for the ceremony. Lights that turn a room into a scene. Add any of these to a wedding DJ or event DJ booking — just mention it when you check your date.

  • Instant prints or a digital gallery
  • Props for days — the good ones
  • An attendant keeping the line moving

“We added on a Photo Booth to our services, and that was the best decision. Guests were able to send their photos to themselves, and even see other photos of guests.”

Live music

Your DJ set, with a live twist.

Two things we do most: something chill for the ceremony or cocktail hour, and a hybrid set where a live player rides the DJ's tracks all night.

  • Saxophone with the DJ setWhat people ask for most
  • String duo — ceremony or cocktail hourSecond most booked
  • Electric violin with the DJ setOn request
  • Live drums with the DJ setCase by case

Lineups get built around your date, and we only promise what we can actually staff. Tell us what you're hearing in your head and we'll confirm it before it lands in your proposal.

And the shiny things

If it makes the room go up, we've got it.
