Meet Our DJs

Ray2

Ray Taylor

Meet Ray, the self-taught DJ with a passion for creating unforgettable events that leave guests beaming from ear to ear. He takes pride in his acute attention to detail and his ability to read the room, ensuring that every subtle aspect of your event is perfectly curated to create an ambiance that will have your guests raving long after the party is over.

Born and raised in the vibrant city of Boston, Ray has spent countless hours exploring the diverse music scene and honing his craft. With a keen ear for styles ranging from classic dance hits to Bachata, Reggae and Afrobeats, he knows just the right song to get each and every one of your guests up and dancing. And once they hit the dance floor, they'll be hard-pressed to leave - thanks to Ray's incredible skill and infectious charisma.

Ray's philosophy is simple: the success of any event hinges on the happiness of its guests. That's why he goes above and beyond to ensure that everyone has a blast from start to finish. As he puts it, "There's no one more dedicated to making sure every single person at your event has a great time than me. I'm here to make sure your party is unforgettable.”

DJ Jett

DJ Jett

Meet Jett Barnes, the New England-based DJ who's been surrounded by music and culture since birth. His love for music began at a young age, and he got his start as a DJ with turntables as a teenager. By the age of 16, Jett was already playing in clubs and honing his skills behind the decks.

When Jett went off to college, he continued to pursue his passion for music by starting a radio show that aired on 90.7 WKKL out of Barnstable, Massachusetts for an impressive 7 years. During that time, he climbed the ranks from student to staff member, and eventually became the Hip Hop Music Director, Music Director, and Vice President of the radio club. With such a wealth of experience under his belt, Jett quickly became a force to be reckoned with in the New England music scene.

Since his start, Jett has played in hundreds of venues - from clubs and bars to barns, backyards, halls, and houses - for every type of celebration imaginable. Especially weddings. And although he covers the entire New England area now, Jett also had an 8-year adventure in San Diego, California, where he continued to wow crowds with his expertly curated playlists and high-energy performances.

Jett prides himself on his ability to get the dance floor moving without any frills or gimmicks - he lets the music speak for itself. Of course, he's always happy to MC your introductions and announcements, but he's even been known to create specialized mixes to add a personal touch to your event.

DJ Frequently Asked Questions

Are you willing to meet with us before our event/wedding.

Yes. We do detail meetings 10 days before a client’s affair. Most clients prefer to meet in person and I make every effort to accommodate that. Sometimes due to time, distance or people being to darn busy we do it over the phone. Whatever is best for you.

Can you play...

Our DJs can play almost any song - only if it's rare would they ask you to provide it. Please understand, however, that our DJs don't work from a client-generated song list. During your detail meeting, you will have the opportunity to let your DJ know songs/artists you have to hear, songs/artists you hate, and the overall genre(s) you'd like played throughout the reception.

Do you provide MC services?

Our DJs are comfortable MCing and making announcements as needed; stylistically, they keep their time on the microphone minimal yet effective. Our DJs don't need to jump up and down or yell at the crowd on the dance floor to create the party feel; instead, they rely on your guests' reaction to their song selection to create an incredible night your guests won't forget.

Do your DJs work with musicians who play live instruments?

Our DJs frequently work with live musicians to create a unique experience for our clients; depending on how many guests will be joining you, the accompaniment can range from one musician to as many as you see fit. Please either visit our DJ+3 page for more information about our in-house unit or reach out so we can learn about your needs and give you a custom quote.

I've already booked a band for my reception, but what about my after party?

Not only do our DJs have a reputation for getting the party started, they know how to keep it going; they will happily provide an additional hour of entertainment for your guests who don't want the night to end following your reception. Please reach out so we can learn about your needs and give you a custom quote.

What happens if one of your DJs is sick/can't make it?

Having been in the wedding business for over twenty years, we have a vast network of phenomenally talented substitutes in case of emergency.

What is your cancellation policy, especially with Covid?

If you have to reschedule your event, we will roll over your deposit to a mutually agreed-upon date free of charge.

Do you carry liability Insurance? The place we’re having our wedding says all our vendors need to carry it.

Absolutely. Over a million dollars worth.
