    DJ Dwight is the Best!

    We were very happy with our decision to go with Dwight for our Charlottesville wedding in June, 2024! The dance floor was popping the whole night and Dwight was awesome at reading the room and keeping the energy levels high (something we had specifically wanted!). Dwight's communication and responsiveness were excellent as well as his attention to detail. He was great to work with throughout the whole process and made us feel really comfortable that we were going to get the type of ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception we wanted (and he delivered!). We can't recommend him highly enough!

    DJ Chuck Stone is the life of the party!

    We had a few phone conversations with Chuck leading up to our wedding and then our wedding day was a dream come true. He absolutely nailed the vibe we were looking for. Everyone loved the music even as they were being seated for the ceremony, then cocktail hour and dinner vibes were perfect. Our dance floor? INSANE! He kept the party going and we didn't leave the dance floor until the night was over! Super friendly and professional! Highly recommend!!

    He was perfect!

    Dwight was so much fun! Our guests are STILL raving about how excellent Dwight was as a DJ. He played perfect songs & read the room well. He was also very helpful in deciding what songs to use. Dwight was easy to communicate with and was very flexible. We 100% recommend him. I’d hire him again!

    Excellent DJ services

    DJ Dwight Ellis did an absolutely incredible job with our wedding. He was great to work with and a complete pro at every step of the way. Everything was worked out in advance, and we felt completely at ease for the entire wedding day knowing that he had things under control. We would give him our highest recommendation!

    Awesome DJ service!

    We are still recovering from all the fun we had at our wedding!! John Garland was a great DJ and awesome MC. He was spot on with all of our announcements/speeches/toasts throughout the night. We provided John with a list of song requests for both the cocktail hour and reception. He played every single thing we wanted and helped to fill in the gaps as well while very clearly paying close attention to what kind of music we like based on our prior song requests. He totally nailed it and goes out of his way to create a special and fun night. Our dance floor stayed packed all night long and we can’t recommend John enough! Booking with John through 20 south was also very easy. Thank you John and Chris!

    Amazing DJ Experience!

    We had a great experience booking our DJ through 20 South Productions! Chris provided us with all the information we needed to make the perfect decision for us on the DJ for our wedding. Our DJ, John Garland was absolutely amazing! He was professional, kind, and made sure the entire day's music went smoothly and without a hitch. John listened to all our requests and curated an amazing set of songs that kept all our guests on the dance floor the entire night! We cannot recommend John enough!

    Great vendor experience

    Booking with this company was super simple and they were able to provide us with all the information we needed and answer any questions we had! We went with Greg Tutwiler and he made the night so much fun with everyone staying on the dance floor all night!

    TD was excellent at our wedding and made it so much fun! We appreciate his kindness, talent, reliability and accommodating nature for we had to reschedule several times due to the pandemic.

    Party time

    Frank and team did a fabulous job at our wedding. Leading to the wedding, Frank was very responsive and answered our questions faster than anticipated which is always appreciated. The portal for music and planning was also super helpful. At the wedding, Frank and team played our music in such a great order while also inputting other music that fit our vibe and guests. It was such a fun time, and I keep hearing from our guests how great the DJs were. Fantastic time. Highly recommend, you won’t regret it!!!

    Corless Wedding 2.0 Charlottesville, VA

    Ran was a fantastic addition to our wedding. He was thoughtful and talented in his craft setting aside plenty of time to meet with us on several occasions to plan out our event. All of our guests had a phenomenal time on the dance floor thanks to Ran. Additionally, he handled the mics for the ceremony/speeches as well as soft background music during dinner. Ran had it all covered - a huge thank you to both Ran Henry and 20South Productions for a great day!

    Ran Henry!

    The man, the show, the legend! Talk about the perfect personality for my small but blast of a wedding! He nailed the music selection with just a few emails, phone convos, and a list of about 30 songs (only about 1/4 of what we listened to). Perfect job! 10/10.

    Mark Allen is amazing!

    Through 20 South, we hired Mark Allen. He had everyone dancing throughout the night. We were very involved in picking the music for everything, and he was very accommodating. We never felt like we were stepping on his toes and in return felt like he listened to what we wanted. We have this one song from spotify that our friend group found ages ago that has turned into a running joke - it's 30 minute 'country club mix.' We asked Mark if he would play just a little bit of it and he did! Everyone loved all of the music and had a great time!

    TD Layman was by far the best DJ. He did and incredible job talking with us on our schedule before the event, incorporating our taste in music selections fro the event from the cocktail hour, dinner, and dance floor. He captured the attention of the crowd and was a professional MC for the reception. He read the crowd and had every dancing the night away; we couldn't be happier with our choice! We keep hearing great feedback from our guests on the music and couldn't recommend a better DJ for a Charlottesville wedding.

    My (now) husband and I reached out to 20 South Productions in hopes to find a DJ that would fit our low-key vibe for our wedding. I've been to too many in the past where the DJ is a little too in your face, calling out people specifically who are taking a dancing break or talking a lot during songs to pump up the crowd. That's great for some people, but my husband and I were going for a different vibe. We were recommended Mark Allen, whom we were able to speak with via phone and email to make sure we were on the same page. Mark was great. We were able to send him Spotify links and make a no play list - which he was happy to stick to. We spoke with him a few weeks before the wedding to finalize and go over everyone's name and pronunciation, timing for certain dances, etc. Mark was great and so very kind, and was everything we were looking for in a DJ! The night went so smoothly thanks to him!

    We initially booked 2 Wishes for our engagement party, and we loved them so much that they are playing for our rehearsal dinner and cocktail hour in between our ceremony and reception! Joy and Mike are the sweetest duo, the epitome of professional, and really know how to play to a crowd. They are the type of duo who can easily blend into background music or engage your crowd, depending on your preferences. 2 Wishes is the perfect band for us!

    We had Mark Allen at our wedding. He did an amazing job. Very professional. Kept the music flowing perfectly for our guests to stay out on the dance floor all night. It was easy to stay in touch with him during the whole planning process. The price was also very reasonable. I would highly recommend him to anyone for their wedding or event.

    We are so happy that we hired a band through 20 South Productions! We hired the country & bluegrass band, Hoof Wiggins, and they were amazing. Everyone was raving about the band to us; we received great feedback on them. They were super affordable, and 20 South and the band were so easy to work with. They were willing to work within our budget, which was very helpful. Hoof Wiggins sounded so great. We went to see them at a festival in Scottsville a few weeks before the wedding, and had a great time. They're very laid back and fun. We really cannot say enough good things about them! We loved them! We want to keep seeing them if they play anywhere soon. Great band and great process of getting them at our wedding!

    I hired Kevin White, through 20 South, to play for a rehearsal dinner and after-party. His selection was perfect and having him play simply "rounded out" the evening. Kevin was professional, gracious, prompt and a very easy person with whom to work.

    Jay (and his team of wife and son) were great. They made sure to play all of the songs we wanted to hear on our special day. We loved that he wanted us to give him a "Do not play" list. Although it was pretty hot on our wedding day, he made sure to stay outside for the sake of the party. We would definitely recommend him.
