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!

Shut Down Productions 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Sarasota, FL

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!

Al has been delighting audiences for his entire career. With his souring voice & subtle phrasing, he transforms any song into a "musical journey." His vocal stylings will make you swear that Bobby Darin, Louie Armstrong, Stevie Wonder, Elvis or Sinatra are in the room, singing! His stage presence & comedic timing will have you laughing till you cry & then his romantic ballads and beautiful Broadway melodies, will put a lump in your throat. All truly does it all!

Al is a multi-talented vocalist and musician with many years of experience entertaining audiences, both large and small, and on stages all over the country, including Atlantic City and New York City. His musical talent and ability to sing many different genres is amazing. Al is a master showman, and I cannot recommend him more highly as an amazing choice for your wedding or for any other special event.

Any questions, requests, or info I needed was answered and addressed so quickly and efficiently, and it really makes the entire wedding planning process just that much easier. All our favorite songs playing throughout our wedding at key moments like our ceremony, reception, and first dance made the event feel so dreamy and cinematic, and I can’t thank Rob and Jordan enough for making our event so memorable. We also booked our photo booth (Feature Booth) through them, and it was the same amazing communication and day of execution. As a graphic designer, I wanted to customize the text around the photo to give it a little bit of a special touch, and they were able to accommodate this and send me a digital preview as well. They definitely know what they’re doing at Second Song and definitely a team I would recommend to couples for their upcoming weddings!

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

Dave was the most incredible and thorough DJ! He was available from the moment we booked him as a DJ all the way up to our wedding day. At one point during dinner, he even went up to the bar to get me a drink because mine spilt. He responded to our wedding crowd and kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night. He has so much experience at weddings that he was even able to help guide us with a wedding reception timeline. He has the best quality equipment and all the speeches and music were very clear. I can’t recommend Dave with Celebrations 24 enough.
