Easily our favorite vendor we booked!!! Mark and his wife Maddy have been so friendly and great the whole process. We couldn't wait until wedding day to party with them! We added in the photobooth and lighting package and those both were so necessary!! Our guests used the photobooth all night long and loved it. I had a guest book where they would tape in the photostrip and write a note next to it - it turned out amazing and the perfect memory to always be able to look back on.
I am STILL receiving compliments from our guests (of all ages!) about how great the music was! Mark killed it and definitely knows how to 'read the room', keep the dance floor crowded, and still play the bride/groom's favorite songs! It was truly a party that I didn't want to end!
Our friend booked them for their DJ for this year and we can't wait for their wedding to experience the party again! -

Mark Aria Entertainment was an absolute pleasure to work with leading up to and during our wedding. Mike is a very talented DJ who worked closely with us to customize the music to fit the vision we had for our reception. Everyone had a great time on the dancefloor! -

Mark and his team were absolutely incredible throughout the entire process. Mark had the dance floor going and there was a line at the Photo Booth all night. So happy we found y’all! -

Rita Sent on 05/22/2022Best Entertainment Team!
Mark Aria Entertainment was hands down the best team to work with. They were very responsive from the beginning to the end. We needed a DJ and an officiant and we were fortunate that they had someone on their team that did both.
No words can express how grateful we are that Andres was our officiant and DJ!!! What a wonderful person to perform our ceremony. It was exactly what we wanted. He was on point with the timeline we provided, played great music and kept the dance floor moving. Our friends and family are still talking about how energetic the dance floor was! We were glad to have him celebrate with us. -

I first hired Mark Aria Entertainment on 11/6/21 for my wedding in St.Augustine. While I initially wanted the magic mirror photo booth and that was main hiring point, they are absolutely phenomenal!! From my first call, email, contact they were so easy to communicate with, professional, truly fabulous. There was not a single problem on my wedding day and I had nothing but compliments from every single guest and how much fun they had and how nice they were.
I enjoyed them so much so that I hired them a second time on 4/23/22 for a big birthday party I throw every year. I just love them. They showed up early, setup, not a single issue! They are sincerely just so sweet, nice, personable, and incredibly easy to get along with. From beginning contact, to picking our photo format, to day of… I will hire them every single time! -

You have to have this team at your event!!!!!! We had the pleasure of meeting Mark and Maddy at my sisters wedding shortly after we got engaged. We immediately booked their DJ services and photo booth afterwards and it was the BEST time we could’ve ever imagined. So many guests complimented the photo booth and the super cool attendant that had everyone smiling and laughing nonstop! Mark had everyone dancing and on their feet. My husband has repeatedly told me that seeing me (drunkenly *try to DJ) behind the booth with Mark was one of his favorite moments of the celebration! It truly was the most FUN we have ever had all thanks to them! Thank you thank you thank you! -

Mark Aria Entertainment deserves more than 5 stars! Everything from lighting, DJ, Photo Booth, communication, etc. was impeccable. The entire process was flawless, and they made our night care free and beyond special. Highly (to the millionth degree) recommend them for your special events! -

LOVE LOVE LOVE these two! Mark and Maddie were the absolute best! They made the whole ceremony/reception music planning a breeze. They were super helpful with suggestions and with keeping the party going! Photo booth was an added bonus and the biggest hit for my wedding guests! It also made an adorable keepsake not only for the guests but such a fun memory for my husband and I to look back on after all the festivities were over. Look no further if you need a Dj/Photobooth cause you won’t find anyone better! -

Mark and his wife Madi are amazing... they made everything fun, easy, and followed up via phone to make sure everything was ready to go. They made sure to play the music we wanted and ensured they would make it fun for the guests, since I as a bride didn’t want to dance. But guess what... I was out there with everyone ! Because they made it so fun! 100% recommend !!!! -

Mark and Madi were AMAZING. I cannot even put into words how grateful I am to have had them for our big day. Mark made everything run SO smooth and is a superb DJ who knows how to get the party started. Madi was so perfect and kind with our photo booth assisting our guests (little ones and adults) who were eager to get their photos done. The photo booth is a MUST HAVE addition to your big day, you will not regret it. The monogram lighting was perfection. Highly recommend this duo, I can’t thank them enough for making our reception so perfect. -

Mark Aria Entertainment was the PERFECT choice for my wedding in October. I was looking for a DJ that would keep us entertained and the dance floor full and a photobooth that would help me document this important day in a fun way. I was able to get both of these from this husband and wife team! They definitely know what they are doing and it shows. Helped with picking out songs, timeline, and kept me updated the day of the wedding on how cocktail hour was going! Everyone enjoyed themselves and loved the Mirror Photobooth! Super fancy and super fun =) Book them ASAP because they fill up because they are so amazing! -

Ashley Sent on 12/01/2020Excellent vendor experience!
Mark Aria Entertainment hands down, excellent vendor! We used them for the Junior League of Jacksonville’s Annual fundraiser, Whale of a Sale. I have attended this event for the past 4 years and this was the first year guests were out on the dance floor!! That alone deserves 5 stars. We absolutely loved working with them and looking forward to using them at future events! Wonderful customer service and a blast to work with. All around praises for Mark and Maddy, you can tell they truly love their work. -

We originally hired Mark as our DJ for our wedding. However, due to the pandemic we had to change our wedding plans and will no longer be hosting a large wedding. It was a really hard decision for us. However, during the initial process of hiring Mark, we have only words to say! Mark Aria and his team were very responsive and communicative. We could tell that they truly cared and would be there for us to help us create our vision for our day. Mark was very easy going and personable and made us feel comfortable and gave us peace of mind knowing how easy it is to customize playlists and really ensure that all of our favorite songs would be played. I am very particular about the time of music I envisioned to be played at our reception and I truly had no doubts that Mark would go above and beyond our expectations because of how professional and reliable he was in every step of the way leading up to the event. It is unfortunate that we had a change of plans but we are thankful for Mark and his team and the wonderful help and support they have provided us! -

Taylor Sent on 09/20/2020Great DJ & Photobooth Service!
Mark Aria Entertainment was such an awesome vendor to have for our wedding ceremony and reception! They helped make our wedding the best day ever! They were so great and easy to work with! Marcus was always available if we had questions or concerns! They were very understanding and flexible with all the covid changes and details. They went above and beyond for us! I had a special request of a mash up dance for my Father Daughter dance and the mix he made was more than I could have asked for!! The music was on point and kept the crowd involved. The new Magic Mirror photobooth was so cool and fun to use and interact with! We got several compliments on how fun it was! I would definitely recommend this company for any sort or wedding or event!!! -

Courtney Sent on 09/16/2020This is your dj!
I would give 20 stars if I could! As someone who has never had a wedding/ not been to very many, I was clueless on music. They were both so nice to work with. They had us do an in-person meet up (pre-COVID) at a coffee shop and sit down and explain what they offer, price, and even started writing down our music we wanted and listed off areas where we would need music (that I didn't even think of! LOL). Seriously, don't even think about going to anyone else. This is who you need!! -

Christian Sent on 03/06/2019Get ready to dance and laugh all night!
I can’t say enough about DJ Mark Aria and his company, man our wedding was so much fun and he was so funny on the mic. I couldn’t believe how long the older people were dancing and how he incorporated music for so many different age groups. It was so much fun and his dance floor lighting was amazing, almost looked like a night club make sure you get this option. The photo booth was out of this world never seen anything like it and it was so easy to use. I was sold on a photo booth but after seeing theirs we definitely made the right decision adding that in. Thanks so much for making our day incredible and so much fun!! -

Nicole Sent on 03/06/2019Fun and very easy to work with!
We started our process searching for a DJ for our wedding and it wasn’t very positive to be honest. So a good friend recommended us to Mark Aria Entertainment and wow what a difference they made. They were so detailed and so much fun to work with. Every step of the way they were very accommodating and even when we had changes the day before haha. They kept the party going all night and their photo booth was a huge hit! We will be hiring them for future parties! -

Jill Sent on 06/20/2022Had a seemingly novice wedding DJ...BEWARE!!!
This company was highly recommended by our wedding planner and after speaking at length with the company (although our assigned DJ remained very quiet on the call; should have been our first warning!), we were excited for our big day. Unfortunately, the DJ (Andrew) was awful. There were MANY unforgivable mistakes; our recessional song was delayed, so we stood at the altar waiting for it to play; he started announcing the next bridal party member before the previous one had even gotten to the dance floor (and they each planned a little dance which was ruined by announcement of the next person), my father-daughter dance song stopped mid-song; there was often a delay between the end of one song and the beginning of another; he played "dance" music during dinner, to which I marched up to him and explained this was an inappropriate time for such music. He was completely mono-tone and no one could understand OR hear him on the microphone. My bridal party, sadly, made fun of him all night. He had NO personality on the mic and DID NOT get the guests involved AT ALL. He basically played music, poorly, all night. Yes, we all danced to our favorite songs but he was not entertainment. My iphone and a playlist would have done just as well. My wedding planner even considered calling the company mid-wedding to complain. After the event, we had a conference call with the DJ company and my wedding planner but all I got were excuses and apologies. WE DID NOT GET WHAT WE PAID FOR and the company did not offer any sort of refund for services, that we truly believe, were not rendered. I warn against using this company or at the very least, against using Andrew. Communication is key. I thought may of these things would have been obvious for a wedding DJ (don't play dance music at dinner, wait for bridal parties to do their little dance intro...) but it was not. Every minute needs to be explained and planned and we left it up to the professional DJ, which was a HUGE mistake.
