Testimonials
“Our DJ was Cory and she was AMAZING!!! She went beyond just being our DJ! First off she did a great job with the music! She played everything we wanted and made announcements when needed to keep everything on track time wise! She also helped with setting up and making sure my dress was properly bustled and at the end of the night she helped us with cleaning everything up and getting all our stuff together! She even took pictures of us during our first dance and text them to me! We would highly recommend Amplify (especially Cory)!”
Katie + Robert
“Amazing DJ! Don’t think twice in booking this company. They are there to make your day unforgettable. They have the best sound system and the DJs energy is at 100%! They are fully involved in your wedding and they listen to what you want for your big day. This was an amazing company to work with since day 1. I had to postpone my wedding several times due to covid and they were right with me through this whole adventure.
Thank you Nate for been so wonderful and amazing on our wedding day. Everyone asked me who I hired to be the DJ for my wedding, you left them very impressed. We loved your energy and you understood the crowd 100%! Thank you so much for making our day unforgettable!”
Daniela + Taylor
“I absolutely loved Amplify! Their system is streamlined. Their services are top notch. They are very affordable, and they come with ALL the extras! We are so thankful that our DJ Chelsea absolutely made our wedding reception a party and had people dancing all night long!”
Kaylee + Brian
“Nate is an amazing DJ! Choosing him as our DJ for our wedding in Tampa was the best decision we made. He was extremely fun and interactive! We had a huge Indian-Cuban fusion wedding. He catered to the many types of music that we requested (Bollywood, Hispanic and American) and kept our diverse crowd on the dance floor! All of our guests said they had an incredible time! Also, the portal that Amplify uses makes the entire process very organized. It made requesting specific music for each of our events so easy. Hands down, the best DJ you could hire for your wedding.
Nate, I just want to let you know that everyone had SUCH an AMAZING time at the wedding!! Everyone was like “who is your DJ?! He was awesome!!” And Kurt and I had the most amazing time. We never wanted to leave the dance floor!! We are so grateful for you!! “
Adithi + Kurt
“Tens across the board! Chelsea was an absolute gem! She’s got the best most positive energy and I felt it from the first time we met her. Our guests raved about her!! We were so pleased with the way she orchestrated the soundtrack of our beautiful wedding day. We were nervous about our crowd not dancing but they got out there and busted some sick moves! Even my husband who is typically reserved danced and had a great time! Do yourself a favor and hire Amplify for your DJ needs and request Chelsea!”
Kristen + John Paul
“We booked Amplify for our wedding and we had Nate. He is the owner of the business and had been highly recommended to me. I was willing to pay extra to reserve him specifically, and it was worth every penny. Nate kept all my needs and wants in mind and offered phone call and video meetings throughout the planning process. He also scheduled a 30 day before call and a 1-2 week before phone call. This was helpful to iron out the details. He offers a detailed questionnaire to allow you to put in your song choices and he also provides recommendations. You can also indicate how much involvement and energy you want from your DJ and for me, personally, I wanted him involved. He did not disappoint. The last hour and a half of our wedding reception people were out on the balcony taking pictures and mingling and Nate came up with a fun drinking game to get everyone on the dance floor who would not normally dance and the night flourished from there. I had people who even asked if the DJ was one of our friends because of how well he vibed with us as a couple and our guests. He got the party started and kept everyone dancing and having a great time. It also helped tremendously that he knew the venue like the back of his hand and also knew our photographer. They worked so well together. I also rented his black and white checkerboard dance floor. They delivered and picked it up. I did not have to think twice about that. He made it all so smooth. I also surprised my husband with a song down the aisle and Nate executed the timing beautifully. Don’t think twice, book Amplify, highly recommend Nate! He was hands down what made our reception something people are still talking about!”
Cammie + Bobby
“Amplify is a fantastic and accommodating group of people! They made the planning process so simple and with all the details they were able to collect – the music for our wedding was absolutely perfect! We had Chelsea as our DJ day-of and she was absolutely fantastic. She planned so many fun surprises and led the entire event perfectly! As somebody who initially wanted a band for my wedding – this turned out to be better than anything I could have imagined. I highly recommend Amplify – and especially Chelsea – as the DJ for your wedding.”
Carly + Brian
“I could not possibly say enough good things about Nate or recommend him highly enough! Nate was easy to work with from the moment we reached out to him. He was responsive, professional and so helpful. Most importantly super fun! He really listened to our vision and implemented it perfectly, giving advice where we asked for it. Nate helped us put on a great party, all the equipment he provided was fantastic and he was on time and on top of everything all day. I can’t imagine our wedding without Nate! I would hire him again and again and recommend him to all my friends.”
Alexandria + Austin
“Man, where to begin? Thank you Nate for your communication, and thank you for giving us the best of the best sir! Chelsea was the full package! She pulled everything together from helping pick out songs to wrangling the bridal party. Not only did she perform our ceremony, she DJ’d our wedding and coordinated everything! Everything was perfect!
Chelsea took the time to sit down and go through every step of the wedding process and help pick out the music accordingly. We didn’t feel rushed or swayed in any way, everything was up to us. She had wonderful suggestions due to her experience and brought up fun ideas for the ceremony and reception that we had not even considered. The whole process was light-hearted, fun, full of lots of laughter and leaving us feeling confident and excited with every choice we had made together.
The ceremony, gosh! It flowed beautifully, and we couldn’t have done it without her! She chose beautiful Bible verses that were perfect for us joining hand in hand under God. She took it upon herself to write a lovely and accurate description of Chris and I’s relationship while adding her own personal touches, mixed with fun, light-hearted jokes sprinkled in. Which if you know Chris and I, that’s our style ? I was extremely pleased that she read our Lord of the Rings reference during the ring exchange! We absolutely love that! Everything was done beautifully and there wasn’t a dry eye or a non-smiling face in attendance.
Chelsea pulled everything together during our final rehearsal. Like I said before, she wrangled the bridal party haha ?. She made sure everybody knew when and where they were supposed to be at all times, and made sure they were paying attention to what the next step was. The music flowed wonderfully and the timing was perfect for the ceremony.
Chelsea’s DJing skills are off the charts! Her flow, music choice and energy is ON POINT! This squirrel knows what she is doing! There was never a dull moment on the dance floor. We received so many compliments on the music that was played at the wedding. From the music playing when people arrived to the final dance, it was such a wide variety of different genres and times. Every generation was cutting a rug or tapping there foot within earshot of those speakers. She really knows how to read the room, keep things flowing and keeping the crowd involved and hyped. There were a handful of songs we specifically chose for certain things but for the ones that were undecided, she filled in the blanks perfectly! Overall Chelsea gets 20 stars! And then some!
She is the best of the best and we couldn’t have done it without her. I highly recommend her and Amplify to anyone planning their special day or any event for that matter. We will definitely request Chelsea services for future events and our anniversary party! Thank you so much for helping make our wedding day perfect!!!”
Nicole + Chris
“Nate and his team are incredible. We used them two years ago for our wedding (which was the absolute best night of our lives!), but recently Nate moved mountains to help us with a Celebration of Life for my mom. We relied on him to help us set the right atmosphere for the event, and he did an incredible job. He took all of the stress and pressure off of us, and is always so kind and compassionate. Thank you Nate, we appreciate you so much!!”
Andie
“Amplify is amazing and DJ Nate is the absolute best. We had experienced Nate DJing other weddings so we actually picked our wedding date based on his availability. As a result, we went in with high expectations. He not only met them, but heavily surpassed them.
The whole process of booking and planning was seamless, and more importantly – fun! Nate was easy to communicate with and had several flexible options when rain was in the forecast.
Rain aside, our wedding had quite a few (non-DJ) hiccups. However, DJ Nate kept the crowd engaged and partying all night, distracting everyone from the hiccups, resulting in the most fun and amazing night ever.
We wish we could give a 10-star review! If you are hosting any event we 100% recommend DJ Nate and Amplify.”
Hallie + J.K.
“We used Amplify for our wedding and they surpassed our expectations! Chelsea was our assigned DJ/MC and she was amazing! The ceremony music was flawless, and she was able to accomplish all my requests down to the small details (such as ending certain songs at certain times, etc). The reception was a blast! Everything was as we imagined, if not better, and Chelsea made sure to check on us several times. She was able to get the dancing going, and once she did it didn’t stop. Our experience was amazing and I would recommend this company and Chelsea to everyone!”
Stefani + Austin
“Amplify was the only DJ we looked at when researching vendors for our wedding. As soon as we talked to Nate to get more information, we knew our wedding was in good hands with any DJ on his team. Our DJ, Annie was amazing. We had only selected music for the big moments and let her have free run creating playlists for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We got several compliments on the music she selected. She accommodated requests and made our 4 year old nephew’s night by playing a Disney song he picked. All we wanted our wedding to be was a fun party and Annie/Amplify made it exactly that. Thank you for everything!”
Nikki + Jonathan
“Nate and Amplify are who you want to DJ for your wedding! I have had SO many guests tell me how much they enjoyed Nate how it was the best wedding they have ever attended! He really kept the party going and matched our energy perfectly! I know my husband and I enjoyed him so much, he was absolutely perfect for our crowd! Thank you Nate! We wish you well and you will be our recommendation to everyone!”
Ryann + Baker
“I hired Amplify for my wedding reception and Erik did an AMAZING job!! They really listened to what I wanted and made it happen. They are so nice and fun to work with!! I highly recommend Amplify!”
Erica + Bobby
“AMPLIFY IS BEYOND AMAZING!! My husband and I are so glad we hired Nate from Amplify for our wedding. He was so thorough and really cared about what we were looking for in a DJ. Wedding planning is already so stressful and he made it the complete opposite! We didn’t realize how important a DJ is and he really made our big day the best experience ever. From start to finish, Nate was awesome and more than we could have hoped for! Thanks Nate!!!”
Sam + Mike
“Chelsea was the DJ for our wedding and she was so awesome!! She got everyone on the dance floor and kept the party going, our guests are still raving about her!”
Melanie + Tony
“Annie was AMAZING! We loved having her as our DJ. She paid so much attention to detail and didn’t have a single issue with adjusting our playlists even on the morning of the wedding! She was so much fun and had everyone up and dancing! I seriously didn’t expect to have such a dancing crowd! I HIGHLY recommend Amplify! Communication was always done in a timely manner, wether it was the owner Nate, or our DJ Annie they were always sure to get back to us fast!”
Shoshanna + Cory
“Nate was so great to work with and I loved that we were able to see our playlists before the wedding thanks to Annie! We had a few last minute changes, but Annie did a great job adapting on the spot and gave us a night full of fun!”
Jordan + Thomas
“Top notch professionals! Nate and Erik with Amplify were highly professional in helping us plan my daughter’s wedding in February. They are very reliable and have talented DJ’s that know how to work the room based on the level you request. They were a joy to work with! To Erik: We just wanted to tell you what an amazing job you did! We got so many compliments on how smoothly the reception went and it was due in large part, to your guidance. Thanks again for being a part of this celebration and we would recommend you and Amplify to anyone that asks!”
Jenna, Mother of the Bride
“Jake was the DJ at my wedding on and he was nothing short of PERFECT! His song choices were great and we had the absolute best time! He helped keep the wedding on track and was very go with the flow if we wanted to change things around spur of the moment! He was so personable and was able to answer any questions we had almost immediately. We chose Jake because we felt like he would fit the vibe of our wedding the best and we have no regrets on that choice! 12/10 recommend Amplify (and Jake) to be the DJ for your wedding!”
Ashley + Connor
“Thank you so so so much for everything Marc. We had the time of our lives and a lot of it had to do with you so thank you! We can’t stop laughing and smiling as we replay all of it back in our minds. We’re constantly saying how lucky we were that we had such a great DJ! Everyone was obsessed with the music. I got lots of comments about it. Jon keeps asking me if I saw you on the dance floor with us because he thought it was the coolest thing lol and now I’m bummed we didn’t get a picture with you but hopefully our photographer got some shots with you in them and we will definitely send them your way! Thanks again and if someone is ever in need of a DJ for an event we will definitely recommend you!”
Samantha + Jon
“Not even sure where to start. If Amplify is available, book NOW. Nate was our DJ and he was SO AMAZING. We were confident in hiring him when our coordinator suggested him, but when we had our initial talk with him I was so blown away by his attention to detail and the fact that it felt like a real conversation rather than just going down a check list. To top it all off, when talking to people about the wedding the first aspect they’d compliment was our DJ. Thank you so much, Nate, for helping us celebrate and contributing to the best day of our lives!”
Laura + Cole
“Amplify is hands down the best DJ company I could recommend. They DJed mine and and three different friends weddings, and they were the best weddings I’ve ever been to! As for my wedding, Marc was our DJ, and it was such a wonderful experience. He MCed the whole event to perfection, and even got our food for us (bride and groom). He wouldn’t let the reception proceed until we had a chance to eat our dinner! It was really wonderful to have someone take charge in making sure that all of our personal needs were taken care of. You really are missing out if you go with another DJ company!”
Aurora + Phil
“I wanted to express my sincerest compliments regarding Chelsea. As soon as she showed up to the venue she was working on setup and confirming everything with me and my Coordinator. Chelsea was ON THE FREAKING BALL with everything. If plans changed on the fly she adapted even if she only heard something said once. She was very in tune with how things were going and was able to make other adaptations completely on her own.
Zach + Jessie
“Me and my wife attended 9 weddings in one year, 6 of which were DJ’d by Amplify, and man could we tell the difference! We used Nate to DJ our wedding and he was nothing short of amazing, but you seriously can’t go wrong with any of their DJs. This is one thing you cannot skimp on for your wedding day. It will seriously make or break your wedding! Amplify helps your timeline stay on track without any weird silent moments and gets the party started and keeps it that way! Their DJs are professional and go above and beyond to make your day perfect. From the special lighting to a custom song that Nate made for my wife’s surprise bridesdudes dance, Nate made our wedding a memory we will cherish forever. My wife and I even did a karaoke entrance with Nate’s help and extra equipment. We cannot thank Nate and Amplify enough for making our wedding the party of a lifetime!”
Samantha + Chelsea
“Best DJ ever! We booked Nate from Amplify for our wedding, one of the best choices we made! His questionnaire was thorough and helped us think through song choices and the reception as a whole. Nate was helpful throughout the whole process! Day of the wedding, we had to change all the plans due to rain. Nate was super go with the flow and changed plans easily. Our dinner/reception was supposed to be outside, but this happened to be the coldest, rainiest day of the year. Nate moved all of his equipment during the wedding to accommodate this change. And did it with a smile! Then the reception started! The music was EXACTLY what we asked for. The perfect mix of what we put on the questionnaire. We all had a blast! It was everything we could’ve asked for. Nate was out in the crowd, hyping up everyone, and bringing the energy. 10000% would recommend booking Amplify for any event you may have!”
Gabriela + John Paul
“If there was an option for 6 stars, I would’ve selected it. Nate with Amplify just recently did my wedding. Not only was he quick to respond when we had any questions building up to the wedding. He reached out before hand to set up a meeting with me and my wife to perfectly tailor the DJ portion of our wedding to our liking. The ceremony music was spot on, the reception was incredible. He interacted very well with the crowd and kept the energy up from start to finish, while still being very professional. I couldn’t recommend Nate and his company enough!”
Clay + Tarah
“My DJ was Darvon and he was absolutely amazing. Darvon was everything we were looking for in a DJ. He was polite, professional, read a room and provided an amazing experience. The owner, Nate, was also amazing and was beyond helpful and maintained open communication and provided helpful resources for wedding planning. We highly recommend Amplify!”
Amanda + Jay
“Amplify was AWESOME! I would highly recommend them to anyone in the area looking to hire a DJ for an event. I hired Nate to DJ my daughter’s wedding. He was very professional and responded to emails timely. He truly wants your event to be great! We had a meeting prior to the event where he went over all our concerns, listened to what type of music we liked and got a great sense of what we were looking for. The day and evening of the event could not have gone better. He arrived on time, had all the equipment set up and had everyone up and dancing all night! A bonus was renting the social photo booth which he had out for guests during the dancing hours. Our guests absolutely loved it! It was another super fun part of the evening! I would definitely recommend Amplify for any event you may have!”
Nicole, Mother of the Bride
“I have to say this company is not only incredibly professional but super easy to work with! Amplify was all around perfect for my needs. They offer several types of music options. I had both live music (for my wedding and cocktail hour) and a DJ for my reception. They were super easy to work with, flexible, and extremely helpful! They helped guide me through all the necessary steps and were extremely flexible. Chelsea was my DJ and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better ? she’s a rockstar! My reception was fun, lively, and everyone had a blast! I absolutely loved her and my reception was amazing and so much fun! Nothing short of perfect!”
Kathryn + James
“Nate absolutely made our wedding in St. Augustine. He was professional, ensured he knew exactly what we wanted played and brought the party to life. He was absolutely amazing.”
Brianna + Derek
“Y’all!!! Chelsea and the whole Amplify experience was AMAZING!!! Their process makes sure your wedding/event is executed flawlessly! I’m SO HAPPY I chose them for my wedding reception, we’re still getting compliments weeks after our event!!! THANKS AGAIN!!!”
Kim + Lonnie
“What do you get when you combine fun, funky, formal, and fabulous? AMPLIFY! Amplify was one of the vendors that I knew I had to have as soon as we got engaged, and our DJ, Chelsea, was absolutely AMAZING! We had the chance to meet and review our preferences the week before the wedding, and we instantly knew that Chelsea was going to get everyone, from ages 5 to 80 on the dance floor at the same time. She provided music during our ceremony and during our reception. Every song we requested was played at the perfect time. When we made changes to our schedule that night, Chelsea was flexible and made it happen for us. Guest requests were happily played and she had people on the dance floor for the ENTIRE night! I may be biased, but I have never been to a more fun wedding and Chelsea was the reason!”
Veronica + Christopher
“There is NO party without Nate!! My husband and I both work in the wedding industry, so we have experienced a lot of weddings. We knew that we wanted ours to be special and custom to us and created our top three MUST haves. The food had to be good, we had to have good photos/video, and the music HAD to be perfect. At all the weddings we attend we have heard the same playlist over and over, except when we see Nate. I knew that Nick and I had to sit down and discuss our wedding with him. Within the first 20 minutes of talking Nate and I discovered we both have a deep love for pop-punk. So much so that Nate told me about this pop-punk band. At that moment I texted my MOH and said the DJ knows all our music, he is hired. We instantly signed a contract and started our partnership with Amplify. We even made sure to snag Nate as soon as possible to ensure that we had him, I knew that no one else would compare for me. Nate gave great advice and was a wonderful listener when it came to my thoughts and concerns. My father has a seizure disorder and Nate instantly made suggestions on how he could alter the package so that the lights would not induce a seizure.
Now to the day of… The best day of my life thus far. Nate arrives on time at both locations and sets up without any need for my time. Before introductions, he spent plenty of time making sure there were no last-minute changes and that he pronounced every name correctly. The blend of music he put together was nothing short of perfection and kept my dance floor full. He knew exactly when and how to get the party started. He even let my godson sing on the microphone to his favorite song. Our pop punk moment was something that forever will live in my heart. There is nothing like singing your heart out to your favorite songs that have brought you through it all with your very best friends. I loved that I could also look over and see Nate dancing with us. I could go on and on but will leave this review with this. Every single person at the wedding, every single person, said something to me about how much they loved the DJ. Thank you Nate for making my punk rock princess dreams come true. We love you!”
Elizabeth + Nick
“Marc at AMPLIFY was absolutely amazing. He had the best personality for any situation and made sure our wedding was absolutely perfect. He followed up no matter what time of day or night and took care of anything we needed without hesitation. I could not have asked for a better DJ at the wedding of our dreams.”
Arielle + Tyler
“We cannot say enough great things about Nate! Our reception (in St. Augustine) was a blast and we had so many compliments about him. He kept the energy going all night! He truly gets to know you and will make the perfect set for your wedding. He is so kind and knowledgeable. We put a lot of trust in his music selections and he completely exceeded our expectations in every way. During our first meeting with him, we instantly knew Nate was the perfect fit as our DJ! Thank you for such a fun and memorable wedding night full of dancing!”
Brittany + Chris
“Thank you Nate! Life took off after the wedding and I never got a chance to thank you for your stellar DJing at our wedding. You made the party! You got people up and out of their comfort zone. When people talk about our wedding they always bring you up first and say how awesome you were. I’ve passed your name and company along to so many of my friends. It’s obvious you love what you do and you are so good at it. Thank you so so much!”
Kenny + Corrie
“Marc was absolutely incredible! We had so many compliments about our wedding and Marc was definitely the MVP. From ceremony music all the way to 80s music on the dance floor he kept everyone energetic and having a great time! He never failed to get everyone dancing! Highly recommend Amplify!”
Haley + JT
“What can I say?!? Nate was AMAZING!!!! He played the music we wanted, always kept people dancing and just wow! Nate and crew are the best. We live in Wisconsin but wedding was in Florida. Being so far away Nate had everything under control to help us and really got to know us! Book Nate! You will not be disappointed!” ❤️❤️
Meggan + Scott
“Best choice ever! I would give more than 5 stars if I could! Nate was INCREDIBLE. We had a blast at our wedding and our guests are constantly telling us how much fun they had. We wanted our wedding to be a big party and Nate absolutely delivered. WOW. The music/atmosphere could not have been more on point. Nate was incredibly helpful and responsive. He has the option to meet via FaceTime in the evening hours which was extremely helpful with our schedules. He runs a very professional operation and brings a GREAT time! It truly could not have been more perfect. Highly, highly recommend!”
Emily + Tony
“My wife and I can’t thank Jake and Amplify enough for making our wedding reception so memorable. Jake was very professional and made a suggestion for our last dance, a dance we’ll never forget! We’re so glad we chose Amplify to be our DJ for such a special occasion.”
Kris + Ashley
“Nate and Amplify exceeded my expectations. From the day that I hired Nate to be the DJ at my son’s Bar Mitzvah, he was responsive, helpful and excited to be a part of our event. He had so much energy the entire night… he played games with the kids until they warmed up to the evening and the kids didn’t leave the dance floor the entire night. He kept them engaged and happy for four hours (not easy when dealing with 13 year olds!)! I also booked Amplify’s photo booth and the girls that were in charge of the photobooth were so sweet and helpful. The photobooth was a perfect combo of high tech and nostalgic. Amplify was even able to put my son’s logo on the bottom of all pictures printed that evening. It’s been a week since the party and I keep hearing how much fun everyone had and how it was the best night! I give all credit to Nate and his team for making it an unforgettable night for all!”
Jen
“Our goal for our wedding reception was for everyone to enjoy themselves and Amplify (specifically Nate) made sure that happened! We had SO much fun. Nate was involved with the crowd and is extremely skilled at reading when it was time to move to the next song. The music was exactly what we requested (and better!) and allowed for guests of all ages to take advantage of the dance floor. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ… it was all so perfect and unforgettable! Thank you Amplify for a night to remember!”
Brittany + Kyle
“Exceptional!!! To say Amplify is a DJ service does them a disservice. Amplify is truly an entertainment provider. They customize their entertainment service to your event to provide the best experience possible for your guests. Their ability to read the crowd is amazing! They know when to hype up and when to settle down and when to keep the party going! They coordinate with the event’s host(s), venue coordinator, event planner, and whoever else involved with the event to ensure the entertainment goes beyond expectations. They can get the deadest crowd jumping! Worth every penny!”

“We had the absolute best experience with Amplify. They were without a doubt the most responsive and helpful vendor that we had on our wedding day. Nate and Jake stayed in contact with us the entire time leading up to the wedding, and made it their goal to make this the best experience for us as possible. Everything was SO personalized, from every single song choice, to the lights, to the wall monogram. Jake spent an hour on the phone with us making sure everything would be exactly how we envisioned, and let me tell you, they exceeded every expectation we could’ve ever had with a DJ. I will recommend Amplify to anyone getting married, they truly made it the best day ever!”
Deanna + Chase
“Would recommend to everyone! Nate was quick to respond when we began inquiring about our wedding reception. I envisioned a certain flow to each part of my wedding and knew I would need someone to understand the concept, and Nate did just that. He worked with my planner and me so well to make sure the wedding vision was not only executed but perfect. From the ceremony music to our very last dance, Nate was amazing. I would recommend him if you want your wedding to be perfect!!! Thanks for everything, you killed it! -much love, the Taylor’s.”
McCall + Neal
“Amplify! My goodness! Hire them! Hire them! I promise you will not be disappointed. We sadly had to push our wedding back three times due to covid and each time Nate was so gracious and understanding. He would always accommodate and communicate with us! As a bride I was getting incredibly nervous about if my wedding would even happen or nervous vendors would start to drop off or take money from us. Not Amplify! They were truly allstars for us. Super gracious, accommodating, creative and helped me stay within budget (which honestly, most vendors do not care about but Amplify did). When it came time (finally!) to pick my DJ for our third wedding date, it was seamless. I am in awe of the overall process. For choosing a DJ Nate sends you a few suggestions that are available to you for your date. He sends you their profiles and highlights what he loves about them. Which frankly, as an owner is pretty darn cool! You can tell he truly appreciates his staff. Then he allows you to choose your top three and why. I immediately, gravitated towards Michael and boy was I not disappointed. He showed up and showed out! He is uber talented and everyone was talking about him at the wedding. He took everything I said in the final review with him and executed it perfectly. I am profoundly grateful for Michael and Nate for making my day perfection. I will recommend you to everyone and anyone who is getting married!”
Katherine + Adam
“We heard about the founder of Amplify, Nate, and his DJing skills from my co-worker, who is also using Nate at her wedding and saw him at another friend’s wedding. She said he was awesome! Trusting her, I contacted Amplify and I’m SO happy I did!! Nate was amazing to work with and we made sure to lock him in for our date! He is extremely thorough and honestly wants to make sure he can help you create the best day ever! The day of the wedding, Nate did NOT disappoint! He helped everything flow smoothly and WOW, does he know how to get a crowd going and on the dance floor! As the bride, I had so much fun and my family and friends loved how interactive Nate was and getting everyone out of their seats and on the dance floor. He even helped my husband and I create special surprises as my husband picked our first dance and I picked our last dance and ONLY Nate knew what they were! If you want to have FUN at your wedding, you only have one option, hire Amplify!!”
Abby + Dave
“I am here to tell you – Nate is your guy!! Best DJ ever! I did not leave the dance floor all night long and that’s exactly what I had hoped for. I have had SO many guests talk about our wedding and comment on how fun it was and how great our DJ was. Nate listens to your wants/needs and takes it to a whole different level. Beyond expectations!!! Working with him throughout the entire process was so seamless. Very professional. We cannot thank you enough!”
Haleigh + Phoenix
“Amplify and Nate made one of the best nights of our lives an absolute fairy tale! My (now) husband and I are from different sides of the country (literally California is and Florida) and have a very wide ranging group of friends and family. From cowboys, Miami Beach guys, Virginia mountaineers, college athletic peeps and everything in between, from 2 years older to 80 years old, he had us all on the dance floor! All of my guests loved Nate and my husband and I were so happy we wouldn’t have wanted any other company or person for our event. Every single guest talked about how amazing all my vendors were, especially Nate who did the music for the ceremony, reception and the photo booth! BEST EVER!! If you get the opportunity pay extra for the Nate Guarantee, it’s definitely worth it!! If not, I’ve heard all the DJs that are a part of Amplify are amazing as well!!!”
Keri + Justin
“We were so happy to choose Amplify as our DJ for our wedding! The entire team is amazing and so easy to work with. From the beginning, Nate was super helpful with answering questions. Jake, our actual DJ for our wedding, was FANTASTIC! He was super helpful when answering all of our questions the week of our wedding. He absolutely captured the vision we had for the music for our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Amplify, and especially Jake, for any event you have! We had a blast and wish we could have continued dancing all night long.”
Olivia + Michael
“Amplify did an amazing job at our wedding. Every request that we made, they delivered! Nate killed it and our dance floor was never empty! Our wedding was amazing and he was a huge part of making that happen. We wanted someone who could hype up our crowd and he did that for sure. But I have also been to weddings that were laid back that he did, but still did an amazing job. I have no doubt he could accommodate your needs!”
Colby + Casey
“Amplify did an incredible job with helping us DJ our wedding. Both on the front end with planning/vision to the day of the wedding, we felt well taken care of and we knew that we were in good hands. We had an idea of what we wanted the day to look like, but didn’t have all the details nailed down on the front end. Amplify helped us to fill in the gaps, made suggestions, yet always kept the goal of the wedding day being hand tailored for us and what we had in mind. We loved having Jake as our DJ! He stayed in communication with us throughout the reception just enough and didn’t get in the way. He played the music we asked him to but kept it creative. Amplify is your best option for the DJ you’re looking for hands down.”
Tim + Summer
“Amplify was an amazing experience and I have nothing bad to say about the services that were provided! They were so easy to work with and always responded in a timely manner. We had the pleasure of having Jake as our DJ! Jake was not only an awesome/ fun DJ, but is also a great person! Throughout our wedding day, Jake would check in and make sure he was making our day everything we hoped it would be and then some! I will forever be grateful for Jake and would absolutely use Amplify again!”
Kensey + Chas
“My wife and I chose Amplify as the DJ at our wedding last week, and that was the second best decision we made. The best decision was opting for the Nate Guarantee aka Dibs on Nate. Nate, the founder of Amplify, went above and beyond like nothing I could have imagined. This dude knows music, and is passionate about bringing you exactly what you want to your event. I feel like my wife and I made a friend, rather than just worked with a vendor. Two amazing things he did to make the night unforgettable was use my wife’s late grandmother’s organ music during our ceremony that we converted to mp3s for him. The second thing he did was throw on my homemade Marshmello helmet from back when I went to a show and dance with us. It was amazing, and I recommend him and any DJ with this company to anyone looking to amplify their event!”
McLain + Olivia
“Robert aka DJ Snow with Amplify is THE BEST! He had people on the dance floor all night and we had literally the best wedding we could have imagined! The beat drops were awesome and no one ever left the dance floor. He played all of the hits and everyone just had the best time. What he was able to put together was truly more than we could have asked for. If you need a great wedding DJ, DJ Snow from Amplify is your guy! We appreciate it!”
Miller + Andrianna
“At our wedding, we had Robert from Amplify and he was EXCELLENT! For the ceremony, he was on time and prompt and he met the mic and sound needs of the pianist we hired. We really enjoyed him at the reception as well. He worked great with our wedding coordinator and everything was perfectly on time. Thank you, Amplify and Robert, for being there for us! We had an excellent wedding!”
Natalie + Jordan
“We can’t thank you guys enough! We had the absolute best night of our lives because of Robert (our DJ) and Nate (the owner) from Amplify. We can’t tell you how many people came up to us to tell us it was the best wedding they have ever been to AND the most fun they’ve ever had and that’s in large part due to the music, so thank you, sincerely. It was awesome!”
Andie + Christian
“Jake was our DJ, and he was awesome! I wanted our wedding celebration to be a party, and Jake made this dream of mine come true! He was so great at getting everyone out on the dance floor. He dedicated a few dances to specific friends and family members, which was the absolute best! We definitely suggest you book your wedding with Amplify because they’re out of this world!”
Sydney + Spencer
“We hired Amplify for our wedding and working with Nate was super easy (and he’s a fun guy to talk to!) and we had Jake as our DJ, who is equally as fun to talk to and really understood our taste in music and how to keep everyone dancing all night. We filled out a long questionnaire with all of our preferences and really specific questions about what we were looking for, and Jake did an amazing job translating all of that to our day. We had such a great time working with them and our guests loved the music! Thank you so much Jake and Nate (and everyone at Amplify)!!”
Amanda + Carson
“Freaking phenomenal! The whole processes working with Amplify was incredible. Super easy, they explained everything and we’re very understanding. Jake was our DJ and he KILLLED IT. He was absolutely amazing and understood what we were looking for. You cannot go wrong with Amplify.”
Lauren + Will
“We recently used Nate from Amplify for an office Christmas party. Nate was fantastic. He hit the right mood for the event and really added to the party. We will definitely use him again.”
John, Corporate Client
“I can not say enough about Nate Long from Amplify! During our wedding planning season, we learned that choosing the right DJ for your wedding was paramount. We were able to see Nate perform in person twice at two different wedding expos. After that, we just knew we had to have him. He was very responsive, professional, capable of getting anything done that you requested, and if you wanted to change something, he was all for it! Not once did Nate make us feel as if we were “bothering” him when we had 100 questions, or last-minute changes. I asked Nate to help me with a little surprise for my groom and not only did he execute it, everyone in the room was crying. I sent him recordings of our three daughters saying a sweet message for their dad. Nate strategically placed them throughout a song that we dance to with our children. It brought everyone to tears. The “portal” you use to customize your wedding day is very easy to navigate and keeps everything so organized for you. We didn’t know every single song we wanted played for every little moment, so we gave Nate the reigns and let him make some of the calls. He did not let us down. Everything was so tasteful. Nate can be whatever guy you need him to be for your wedding. We wanted him to pump up our crowd and boy did he! For the very last song, he got on the dance floor with us! We even had karaoke at our wedding! Our wedding guests have been talking nonstop about how amazing our DJ was. We are so grateful for the services Amplify delivered on our special day. We are already talking about what we can plan next just to have Nate throw us another party! Hands down the best DJ around.”
Toni + Seth
“Nate was very professional and truly loves what he does! He made our social event very special! I would 10/10 recommend Amplify to anyone!!!! You won’t regret it!”
Isabel
“We booked with Amplify back in the beginning of 2019, for my daughter’s wedding which was scheduled for May 2020. Then the pandemic hit and derailed my daughter’s original wedding plans. I spoke with Nate to let him know my worries about the coronavirus due to health concerns for myself and our guests and we would have to reschedule. He assuring me he would go ahead and refund all monies except the non-refundable $250 deposit, three days later the refund showed up on my credit card. Many couples are wrestling with vendors over receiving a refund or a credit after the coronavirus crisis halted their wedding plans. Amplify is not one of those vendors, Nate said my deposit could be used anytime, even if we decided to have something in 2022 or later. His understanding showed me that Amplify isn’t just in business to make money, but Nate and Amplify sincerely care about their customers. We really appreciate the great service and hope to re-book in the near future!”
April, Mother of the Bride
“My husband and I have been to many weddings over the past few years, all with DJs. Some were from Amplify and some were not. Hear these words… there is a marked difference!!! When it came time to assist our own daughter and her fiance in planning their own wedding, it was the easiest choice. Amplify is THE best! Nate, the owner, is professional, kind, timely, and knowledgeable. He took the time to truly get to know our daughter and her fiance and got a real feel of their personality and style. He assisted them in choosing a DJ that would fit. And let me tell you, Dexter was one of us that night! The time leading up to a wedding can be very stressful. Dexter made himself available to the kids and told them to contact him with any concerns or questions that came up. When they did, he promptly and politely responded. It was like they were working with a friend! Wedding day came… and what a fantastic job he did! Just incredible! This was a DIY family (church family, so 240 guests) wedding. We did not hire a planner or coordinator but let me tell you, we so did not need one because of Dexter! His organization and knowledge of details were crazy. From playing music during the social hour, to introducing the bridal party, to calling tables to the buffet line, to keeping the dance floor “lit”, Dexter was the man! He led the entire night with energy and fun and kindness! It went off without a hitch! What Dexter did NOT do was just show up and play music. It was quite obvious MANY hours before the day had gone into his performance. He was so prepared. Wow. Our guests have been raving about “the DJ”! What a blessing it was to sit back and relax and enjoy the night without worry or stress. Nate, thank you for training and hiring the best. And choosing a good fit for the kids! It is clear you are passionate about your profession, as is Dexter. Many blessings to you both! Thank you, thank you!”
Dawnadee, Mother of the Bride
“Awesome. Great. Perfect. Zac made our wedding a great experience. During our pre-wedding meeting, he was able to gather all the necessary details in person and get an idea of our personalities to make this a phenomenal experience. He also provided ceremony services even with it being on the beach. The sky is the limit with Nate, Zac and this company. We definitely recommend Amplify.”
Ciera + Cody
“DJ Robert was fantastic! Our theme was “old school” for my sister’s 40th birthday, so it was great to hear and dance to the tunes when she was middle and high school. Robert also took tons of requests from styles like salsa, merengue, bachata, hustle, break dancing, you name it. We literally danced the entire time. All my guests were thrilled and Robert was really down to earth, no hassles. We had pure fun and we highly recommend him. His music selection was AMAZING! Thanks for everything!”
Toni + Elliott
“I am a wedding planner and had the pleasure of working with Dexter as our DJ! He is the best! The dance floor was full the whole night and everyone loved him! I would 100% recommend him and Amplify if you are looking for an amazing DJ service!”
Kiera, Coastal Coordinating
“Black Tarzan (Dexter)!!! Cannot recommend him enough! He was so awesome and went out of his way to really get to know Rheed and I before our big day to make sure he really expressed who we are on our big day. We FELL IN LOVE with his dance moves and was so flexible when unplanned things came up! We love you, Black Tarzan, you’re part of the family now! Amplify is a wonderful company, you will be in good hands!”
Leanna + Rheed
“Dexter was our DJ for our wedding last Saturday and he was AMAZING!!! Played such good music, got the party going, played all the music we asked for and even rapped! All our guests went crazy and we got told multiple times it was the funnest and best wedding they have ever been to!!! Thank you so much Nate and Dexter for making our wedding unforgettable! Best decision we ever made was having Amplify apart of our special day!”
Katelyn + Jesse
“Everything about Amplify is awesome. Finding a DJ for my wedding felt soooo daunting and I had no idea what to expect looking around but Amplify took care of things I didn’t even know I needed, including all kinds of lighting. My sister drew a design we got to use for the custom monogram light. They are extremely thorough and want to get to know you, what kind of wedding vibe you’re going for, and they’re just freakin nice lol. Dexter DJed my wedding and there are really no words to express the gratitude I have for his services! I really only knew a few specific songs I wanted in the ceremony and reception so in the format of Amplify; we gave him our favorite bands, songs, genres and he made suggestions aka READ OUR MINDS! And then on wedding day he filled in the gaps with music from the same vibe. HES AWESOME! MY GRANNY DANCED WITH HIM TWICE!! Definitely recommend. Especially if you’re having a beach wedding :)”
Tatum + Hugh
“Dexter was the best DJ that I have ever experienced. He was personable, energetic, fun loving, and got everyone up and dancing (which I did not expect to happen!)!! I have gotten so many compliments about him after wedding and many of the guests want to use him for their events. Dexter is absolutely amazing!”
Nadia + Johnny
“100% satisfaction with this crew! Dexter with Amplify was our DJ for our beach wedding this past weekend and he blew it out of the park. From ceremony to the wee hours left on the dance floor at the end of the evening, every song he played was right on point! Would 100% use them again and recommend to friends interested in using their service! Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts!”
Montana + Josh
“Amplify is 100% the best! They came so highly recommended that we contacted Nate about having his company DJ our wedding in St. Augustine. Nate was wonderful to talk to over the phone, answered all of our questions, and hooked us up with the best DJ a couple could ask for. Dexter was WONDERFUL and we feel like we have known him forever. Our friends and family haven’t stopped talking about his upbeat personality, but what stood out to us the most was how genuine he was. He truly cared about us, our day, and he fit right in! He was on point the entire night, played everything we talked about when we met last month, and kept the dance floor rocking. He had no problem keeping up with our wild and ready-to-party friends and family! We are so glad we decided to bring Amplify to St. Augustine for our wedding, and so grateful Dexter was our DJ!”
Liana + Bryan
“We had the best time with Amplify! It started with an interview to get to know the DJ and the company. They immediately took any stress off because they can cater to any request! We got paired with Dexter who was so much fun! I highly recommend Amplify for your wedding!”
Dianna + Kadmiel
“We had an amazing time with Dexter from Amplify! He did a great job of accommodating our eclectic music taste and kept the dance floor going all night long! Nate was excellent to work with during the planning stages and helped design our awesome alternative monogram which they projected on the walls of the venue! Their services are affordable and I would highly recommend for any North Florida weddings!”
Sydney & David
“Dexter was the epitome of perfect! I could not have dreamed of a better DJ for our wedding! He fit right in like he was family and kept the party going all night! Thank you for helping to make my dreams come true.”
Abbye + Logan
“Amplify was such a great company to work with for our wedding. Nate and his team go above and beyond in making sure they get the perfect picture of what YOU want your day to feel like. We had the privilege of having Dexter DJ our wedding and he was perfect. We had so many compliments on him and how interactive he was with the guests. He knew how to get people up and dancing! We highly recommend this company.”
Meagan + Adam
“Dexter was AWESOME!! Everyone had a wonderful time, and he got everybody on the dance floor which I was THRILLED about for photos lol. I didn’t think that would happen 🙂 It was just perfect!!! The lighting and sound was amazing, and the volume was perfect! Thanks again, the service was too notch, classy, and the purple uplighting gave me chills when I walked in.”
Paulette, Mother of the Bride
“We chose Dexter with Amplify and had an absolutely fantastic experience. One of the best things about Amplify is that they have a pretty large number of excellent DJs with their bios and music tastes and personal style on their website so you can choose who you think works best for your personality or the vibe you’re looking for during your wedding. Upon our initial consultation, it seemed like Dexter would be the best fit for us and he did not disappoint! Even our photographer, who’s done hundreds and hundreds of weddings, loved Dexter. The process is totally transparent (no mysterious charges or fees), they offer packages that fit a lot of different needs and there are a number of a la carte options to make it exactly what you want. Nate and his crew have thought of everything and covered all of the bases. Should we ever be throwing a party that needs a DJ or emcee, we’ll definitely be returning to them.”
Amanda + Cole
“Nate was a pleasure to work with. He seemed genuinely excited to give me and my now wife the DJ experience of a lifetime. He was thorough with what we wanted and didn’t want and had some excellent suggestions to make everything run smoothly. Our DJ, Dexter, was outstanding to say the least. He was early to the event, extremely professional, flexible, and came prepared to our venue that had little internet service. During the reception he kept the energy going and danced with us too! He was so awesome we wanted him to come out after the reception! My guests were so impressed they wanted to book Dexter for future events. I can’t say enough good things about Amplify. It’s a shame I can’t give them 6 stars because I would in a heartbeat. Thanks to all of you for giving me an unforgettable wedding experience.”
William + Sarah
“Nate and Dexter walked us thru the whole thing, which really helped since we weren’t well versed on how things should go. Dexter did a great job with the music and even got on the dance floor to help fire things up! Amplify was a great find!”
Kim + Julian
“Ryan was great. Pleasant, positive and very flexible. The music selections were terrific!”
Kelly, Corporate Client at Jacksonville JazzFest
“I hired Nate at Amplify to DJ and provide lighting for my April wedding, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. From our initial contact, he was friendly, professional, and very helpful. I enjoyed meeting him so much that I signed a contract that day without any hesitation. He offered reasonably priced packages, had an obvious love of music and entertainment, and had only rave reviews (including from my other vendors). Nate is a very talented DJ, entertainer, and businessman, and it was a joy working with him. He had great suggestions for our timeline, music selection, and lighting options but made it clear that everything was our choice. I am delighted with how everything turned out- the lighting looked amazing, the music was perfect, and everyone was dancing and having a great time all night. I cannot imagine a better DJ or a more pleasant person to work with! I hope to have the opportunity to work with Nate and Amplify in the future!”
