A good party not only needs good planning, it also needs a great DJ to get the crowd going. I am sure you have a fun crowd already, so now you need a DJ to keep your party bumping! Here are some of the best Djs and bands in the area that will build a song list your guests can't help but shake it on the dance floor.
Chris Hoog - Golden Bell Collective Dj /Live Band Hybrid
Golden Bell offers a dynamic DJ live band entertainment experience for weddings and events. They include MC services in every package, ensuring a smooth and engaging event flow. Their MC style focuses on using instruments to elevate energy and engagement, rather than constant chatter on the microphone. The packages are priced for the duration of the event, with additional hourly fees past midnight. For the dance party portion, packages are capped at four hours, but longer events can include a break and after-party. While the collective members are full-time touring artists, they have invested in videos to showcase their DJ/live band hybrid in a live setting. Live options for the ceremony and cocktail hour include acoustic guitar or keyboard solo, with or without a live horn, as well as a jazz ensemble. Additionally, they offer a featured vocalist option for a captivating 30-minute set during the event.
