Our DJ (DJ Essen) totally killed it. The playlist was perfect, I couldn’t find time to sit down, It was hard to stop dancing. We had a lot of different vibes to keep entertained and he did a great job. Communication before the wedding was great he was always there to answer any questions I had promptly.

Awarded Best of Zola
We couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! From the very beginning, his communication was fantastic and he was incredibly professional throughout the entire process. He gave excellent recommendations, provided sample playlists, and a thorough questionnaire that we would've been completely lost without. A month before our big day, he attended our final venue walkthrough to ensure his equipment was compatible with the venue's sound system, which gave us great peace of mind! Having a bilingual MC was a huge bonus, especially since about half of our guests were attending from Mexico. He seamlessly transitioned between English and Spanish, making everyone feel included and keeping the energy high all night long. We loved that the dance floor was never empty, all of our guests, including my husband and I, had an absolute blast! We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who is not only skilled but also attentive, accommodating and passionate in his work. He truly made our wedding celebration unforgettable! Thank you again Peter, it was perfect!

B^2 LoneStar Entertainment 
Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Serves Fischer, TX

I run LoneStar Entertainment and focus on weddings where everything runs smoothly from ceremony through the final song. My role isn’t just playing music — it’s making sure ceremony audio is clear, announcements are handled professionally, and the reception flows naturally so guests stay engaged. I keep my setup clean and work with couples ahead of time so there are no surprises on the wedding day. The goal is simple: you get to enjoy your wedding while I handle the flow of the night.

Brad made our wedding day feel completely stress-free. The ceremony audio was clear, the timing flowed smoothly, and we never had to worry about what came next. Once the reception started, he kept the energy right and the dance floor stayed busy without feeling forced. He was organized, easy to work with, and handled everything professionally so we could just enjoy our night.

Rating: 5.0 (3 reviews)

  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Fischer, TX

Located in Boerne, Texas, Jody Jenkins Band comprises a group of talented performers that specialize in wedding day music. The 5-piece band is a veteran in the music industry, opening for famous names such as Willie Nelson, Garth Brooks, and Alabama, to name a few. The musicians are interactive, engaging, and high-energy, adding vivacity to the wedding celebrations.

Awarded Best of Zola
Jody took the time to set up and test the sound hours before the wedding to ensure the best sound and location possible. He brought all his equipment as a precaution, even though we had provided everything. He used a lot of his better quality equipment and made his music and voice come alive! His voice and guitar playing abilities truly lit up everyone's faces as soon as he started to play and sing. We had some personal favorites that he absolutely sang perfectly for our special day! My only regret, is that I wish we would have planned for him to sing longer. Our wedding was a small intimate family event. He played solo, which was perfect and for our wedding and location. I have seen him play at large events with his entire band, he and they can really entertain a crowd! He is very interactive and really gets the audience into the music! I would totally recommend Jody and his band for any wedding, small or large, as he is flexible and listens to what you want for your day.

We loved working with Chris Story! He was great to work with even with the uncertainty of the pandemic. He was extremely accommodating and helpful when choosing first dance songs and even played late to make sure my husband and I got to hear a favorite song. The whole band was dressed sharp, professional, and amazing artists. They sounded amazing and we have gotten so many compliments on how great the band was!

The harpist and violinist were absolutely incredible — truly one of the most magical parts of our entire wedding day. My husband and I were completely in awe, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how beautiful and cinematic the music was. It felt like something straight out of a movie, especially with the stunning ambiance of our ceremony location. From the very beginning, the process of choosing music through the company’s website was seamless. There were so many amazing song options to pick from, and we were so happy with our final selections. Hearing them come to life — especially on violin and harp — was beyond words. The musicians played so eloquently and gracefully, and their talent was unmatched. The music added a romantic, emotional, and elegant touch that elevated everything to a whole new level. Communication with the company was excellent. They were quick to respond, always friendly and accommodating, and remained professional and patient — even when unexpected weather challenges came up on the day of the wedding. They were flexible, understanding, and worked with us to make sure everything went smoothly. The quality of the performance was truly a 10 out of 10. Guests were completely blown away, and many told us how unforgettable and moving the ceremony music was. The transitions between songs were smooth and perfectly timed. I would 100% recommend this company to any couple looking to add something special to their ceremony. They are incredibly talented, professional, punctual, and just a dream to work with. We’re so grateful to have had them be part of our big day — they helped make it feel absolutely magical.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

We were hesitant to hire a DJ for our wedding, we weren’t sure we really needed one, but wow we were wrong! Cory made everything so seamless, from start to finish. From my initial communications, we felt at ease with Cory. He was definitely the easiest vendor to work with out of everyone! He made sure he was providing exactly what we envisioned for music and audio, rather than what he might typically prefer. I even made the comment to him after the ceremony that I hadn’t even noticed he was there, he was just in the background ensuring the ceremony went off without a hitch! For the reception, he announced everything professionally and easily, and really did a great job playing songs that fit the mood. His work was absolutely worth his rate and more, a great value and very reasonable! I’m looking forward to recommending him to our friends and family, and working with him for our next bash as well! Thanks Cory!!
