The Best DJ!

My husband and I hired Sound By Design for our wedding and they were great! We initially worked with Conner to talk through the contract and get everything locked in. I was very impressed with the communication and organization throughout the entire process, from signing the contract to our wedding day. We were given updates throughout the planning process, reminders for our scheduled payments, and they checked in with us a few times leading up to the wedding in case we had any questions. They use an app that you can upload all of the music that you want to play at your wedding including pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, spotlight dances, etc. We were also able to also put music in a "do not play" playlist. Having everything in the app was super convenient and helpful when mapping out our music for our day. Our DJ also helped provide playlist suggestions on Spotify for us to reference, which was great. We had a final meeting with our lead DJ, Ryan, who was awesome. We came away from our final meeting feeling really good about the music for the day and he walked us through all the logistics and answered all of our questions. On wedding day, Ryan was the best! He was super professional but also really fun at the same time. He kept the energy up during the reception and knew what to play to keep the crowd on the dance floor. We can't recommend Sound By Design enough!

Thank you SBD!

I would highly recommend using SBD to any couple getting married. We had Aidan as our lead DJ, and we cannot thank him enough! Throughout the night, he made sure we were taken care of and even grabbed drinks for us and our parents! Everyone at the wedding couldn't stop telling us how great he was. He also kept the dance floor full all night!

We danced the night away!

Our DJ was Mateo, and he was phenomenal. He ran the dance floor well, blending songs to help keep people out there. But he also set up the sound for the ceremony and dinner. There was no feedback on any of the mics. He timed my brides processional song perfectly so she could walk down the aisle to exactly what she dreamed of hearing. Thank you so much to SBD and I hope to use them again for future events!

I have no idea where to even begin with Sound By Design. Simply put... they are the BEST in the business. From their ability to keep the party going ALL night long to the details they put into making each and every wedding a success are unmatched. We recently used SBD for my sister's wedding and they totally transformed Turner Hall into a wedding right out of a magazine. The color wash and uplighting in the room was so beyond magical. The photo booth was a hit and they just launched a SBD Films division which we also used and were blown away. Don't think twice... book them before your date is gone!
