    He smashed it!

    You want Andrew as your DJ. I am not kidding when I say he was one of the most highly rated parts of my wedding. He did an excellent job reading the room and adjusting when a song wasn't hitting. Everyone had the best time ever, from my grandpa getting down to the oldies to my college friends singing along to Hamilton and Pitch Perfect. Zero regrets. Hire this guy.

    Do your dancefloor a favor

    Having been to a lot of weddings with less than ideal DJs, hiring a good DJ was a huge priority for us. We wanted the dancefloor to be lit all night, and DJ Drew delivered! From the beginning, he made it easy to share our music needs through a very detailed questionnaire. This ensured he had the right versions of the songs we wanted, and the correct timeline. My husband and I put together very extensive playlists for each parts of the day, and Andrew filled in the gaps with songs that fit those vibes perfectly. But the end of the night was where he really shone. So many guests commented on how fun the dancefloor was, and we couldn't agree more. You won't regret hiring DJ Drew for your wedding!

    The Best DJ!!!

    If you're looking for a DJ, stop your search now, Andrew is the one! Hiring him for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. We truly can't say enough about how incredible he was.

    Andrew set the tone and created an atmosphere that made the night unforgettable. When the reception kicked off, almost everyone was up on the dance floor and the dance floor stayed full the rest of the evening! The set list kept getting better and better, and he was able to work in songs from multiple decades to appeal to all our guests. He went above and beyond, incorporating some specific cultural music for my extended family and even created a great impromptu finale with the last song that hyped everyone up for our send-off.

    Multiple guests were telling us how much they loved the DJ, and we couldn't agree more!

    Awesome DJ!!

    Just had our wedding last Sunday - Andrew and the Upchurch team were spectacular. Our dance floor was full the entire night! Andrew was in the dance floor and hype the entire night. We had several moving parts to our wedding as well - live band during cocktail hour and saxophone player during reception - Andrew coordinated everything seamlessly without any issues. The lighting, smoke machine and cold sparks - perfect. A day/night we will never forget.

    10/10 Would Recommend

    Andrew did such a fantastic job. He handled equipment setup for the ceremony and reception without a hitch. For the dance portion of the night, he read the room, took diverse recommendations from our guests, and tailored the night to our music tastes (discussed in advance). He even helped us to set up an awesome karaoke session on the outside deck (a special request we had)! Everyone had an awesome time. We would definitely recommend Andrew / the Upchurch Co to our friends.

    Best DJ ever

    We went with Upchurch as a recommendation from our wedding planner. We had met several other DJs and already had a lean but DJ Andrew won us over with his optimism and flexibility. The client portal was very easy to use, broke down all the parts of the wedding to keep things simple for us and also gave us a lot of optionality when we just didn't feel like thinking anymore. We also touched base just before the wedding and were really impressed with how great his communication was. At the reception, all the guests loved him and were amazed how interactive he was at a DJ. Going with Upchurch was one of the best decisions we made.

    11/10! Andrew with Upchurch was incredible!

    Andrew was absolutely incredible! He was loved by everyone—his energy, charisma, and ability to get the crowd excited kept the dance floor packed the entire night. We received tons of compliments from our guests about how entertaining and engaging he was.

    You can truly tell he loves what he does, and it made such a difference. He brought such a fun, positive vibe to our day while also being so professional and easy to work with. We would 100% recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who will not only play great music but create an unforgettable experience.

    WOW!! These guys were AMAZING!!! 11/10

    Our expectations were exceeded! Your biggest fear when planning a wedding is that the dance floor will be dead... Trey & Byron kept the party ALIVE!!! The dance floor was full ALL NIGHT LONG. The song choices were perfect, everything flowed naturally. If you are in search of a DJ look no further!

    Super easy to work with!

    We loved our DJ, Trey! He was great to work with and very communicative leading up to our wedding. We got tons of positive feedback from guests about the music and how smoothly everything went. When it was brought to my attention that I had confused the timeline some, Trey handled it with grace and was flexible with everything. I'm very glad we ended up reaching out. If you're someone that's not sure if they want or need a dj, I would definitely reach out to the folks at Upchurch, they're great!

    We loved our experience with Upchurch Event Co!

    Andrew was amazing to work with throughout our wedding planning process and he really brought the party during our event! He was so much fun and he had a lot of great ideas throughout the planning process which ended up being some of our favorite details at the wedding. He took our vision for the dancefloor and ran with it and had everyone out on the dancefloor the entire night. We would love to work with him again and we definitely recommend him to anyone who wants their wedding dancefloor to be LIT!

    Upchurch Event Co. is the best wedding DJ around!

    Excellent DJ

    We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! From the first meeting to the last song of the night, Andrew and his team was absolutely amazing. They perfectly captured the vibe we wanted, seamlessly blending our favorite songs with crowd-pleasing hits that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. Andrew was professional, attentive, and really knew how to read the room. They also handled all our special requests flawlessly and made sure every moment—from our first dance to the final send-off—was perfect. Our guests are still raving about how much fun they had! If you’re looking for a DJ who will make your wedding unforgettable, look no further. Upchurch Entertainment is the best!

    Amazing DJ

    If you are looking for a great DJ to work with, you have found them! From the initial email to the big day and all the calls/emails in between The UpChurch Event Co. has been a dream to work with. Darrell was the perfect DJ for our wedding and kept the dance floor bumping all night, even with a small wedding! The software they use to select songs for certain moments is amazing and so easy to use. I cannot recommend them enough for a wedding!
