If you are contemplating the price, let me just say it is worth every penny and more! These guys went above and beyond their roles. DJ Scott was amazing and made all of our emo dreams come true. He rolled with the flow and even helped us get back on track when our timeline got messed up! The photobooth was also worth every bit and we even got the cutest photo book with all the fun pictures everyone took!! Keith helped so much dealing with our crowd, wild nephew and even helped hang our neon sign! We will recommend this company to everyone and for sure use them for future events! Thank you so much Scott and Keith for making our day even more special. Much love guys

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ & MC than Greg Gioia from Blue Moon Beats for my sister’s wedding! From the moment we started planning, Greg was easy to communicate with, professional, and full of helpful suggestions. He really took the time to understand our vision and helped us organize a seamless flow for the evening. Greg’s equipment was top-notch, and everything sounded perfect from the ceremony to the last dance. He did an amazing job keeping the energy up and the dance floor packed all night long. As an MC, Greg was warm and clear, keeping the night on track while still maintaining a fun, relaxed vibe. We can’t stop talking about how great the music and overall vibe of the night were! Greg truly made our wedding unforgettable. If you’re looking for a DJ and MC who will go above and beyond, we highly recommend Blue Moon Beats and Greg Gioia!

Exodus Sound Company 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • DJ

We decided to name our business Exodus Sound Company because it is always our goal to walk our own path as entertainers. We’re going exciting places that are uncharted in the wedding entertainment business. The journey of the last few years has led us to a new kind of business. One that combines live music with DJ for the seamless event filled with variety and exploding with unique wonder at every turn.

We were beyond impressed with Mark! Not only is he a fantastic DJ, but he's a skilled pianist, singer, emcee, and overall entertainer. Our guests loved him and kept bringing up how amazing he was even months after our wedding . He was recommended by a friend who'd attended a wedding where he played and we similarly have shouted his praises! We hired Mark for our wedding reception. We had a fantastic interview with him where he got a feel for what we liked, our story, and our vibe as a couple. We had a long "do not play" list which might have limited a basic wedding DJ, but not Mark. He went off of our favorite songs, artists, and genres and kept our guests on the dance floor. My only "complaint" is that the songs were so good that I kept delaying the cake cutting (not a big deal at all) because I didn't want to leave the dance floor! He is incredibly engaging and professional. His emceeing was spot-on: his timing was perfect, he kept things organized, and he took care to get all the names and pronunciations correct (which seems like a little thing, but I've seen it go wrong so many times and you don't want that!). He brought all his equipment, so we didn't have to worry about anything. The mics and sound were the perfect volume for speeches etc. and there were zero technical issues. Absolutely seamless. Our budget for a DJ was a few hundred less than what we paid for Mark, but the difference in cost was worth it many times over for having a DJ of his caliber plus the added treat of live music. Honestly, what we paid was a bargain and I'm beyond glad and relieved we went with Mark rather than hunting for a cheap DJ/experience (especially after attending so many weddings lately and seeing the wide range in what you can get). Mark sang and played piano during dinner, which was really nice. While people could talk and enjoy their food, some of the singing was so good I had to stop and listen at times! He has runs for days (some swooning during 'Tennessee Whiskey') and Grandma loved that he did some Sinatra. Overall, not only was he a reliable, timely, communicative vendor, but he helped make our wedding the best night of our lives with his musicianship. Things couldn't have gone more smoothly. Not only would I hire him again in a heartbeat, I tried to get him for our company holiday party but he was already booked (not surprising given how great he is!). Highly recommend!!! Thanks, Mark!

Christian brings over 22 years of experience to your wedding or special event and is highly acclaimed as a premier wedding professional in Austin and high performance DJ worldwide. If a busy dance floor, music sound quality, volume control, customized music planning, infectious and enthusiastic MC’ing, high caliber DJ mixing skills is a priority at your wedding or special event contact Christian to set up a consult and vision sharing call or in person meeting.

We knew Christian from the wedding industry (I’m a venue owner in Austin) and his DJ sets at clubs around the city. When my wife, Kari, and I decided to get married in Tulum, we knew the music and party were going to be some of the most important aspects of the day—it sets the tone for everything: the ceremony, pre-ceremony vibes, the walk, dinner, reception, and of course, the party. Christian went above and beyond. He met with us, listened to our vision, and even challenged us where needed to ensure we got the experience we truly wanted, rather than trying to make everyone else happy (which, let’s be honest, you can’t). That perspective was invaluable. We trusted Christian so much that we chose to book him and have him travel with us to Tulum rather than hiring someone local. We knew he was the absolute best man for the job, and he proved us right. The result? The best day and party of our lives. To this day, people STILL talk about how epic it was. Christian had everyone dancing—friends, family, parents, aunts, uncles, kids. The energy was unmatched, and the music flowed seamlessly through every part of the day. If music is a priority for you—if you truly appreciate the art of it and want it to elevate your wedding or event—Christian will not disappoint. A world-renowned DJ and producer who knows how to curate the perfect experience, he’ll make your day unforgettable.

Doug Anthony - Solo Guitar Austin

Austin, TX
  • Solo performer

I have been playing guitar in Austin, Texas... ...since 1989. I am a full time musician and I perform regularly for corporate events and weddings. Even though I have been playing the guitar for so long there is still so much to learn. I enjoy the process of learning new things and improving on what I already know. There are endless ways you can play a song and there are so many good songs to play. I was born in 1966 so I am heavily influenced by the music around that era which explains The Beatles, Stevie Wonder and The Great American Songbook.

Doug Anthony Solo Guitar is at the top of my A-List of go-to acoustic guitarists in the Austin Texas market. What I arrive at a venue to officiate a wedding and I see that Doug is the guitarist, I know it's going to be perfect! I've also had the pleasure to see him out and about playing in different pubs around town, and at private events. He never disappoints. I highly recommend Doug Anthony Solo Guitar for your next event.

I love to bring my passion and knowledge of what makes a private party dance set work to your event! I want to make your special day a seamless process, and most importantly, I want to get everyone singing and dancing together

We loved having Radiogold play at our wedding. I’ve been friends with Chris a long time and so it was really special to have him and the band play. Dance floor was always crowded and hopping! They played a diverse range of songs: pop, rock, 80s, country… and everything ran super smoothly with them leading the schedule! People kept coming up to us to say “the band is so amazing, and this is the best wedding ever!” I’m confident Radiogold was a huge part of why everyone loved it so much. I’d recommend them to anyone who’s looking to make their wedding really special and a lot of fun.
