I am looking for a DJ that plays top 40, hip hop, and R&B music. MY FI is from Dallas and all of his friends LOVE to dance. I need someone who can keep the party going! If they have lighting, that would be great! Please help!!!

ETA: If possible, pricing??

    I went with Premium Sound DJ's. It is a married couple so one handles the mic and the other does the music. They have great reviews online, the woman was very energetic when I talked to her on the phone which I really liked cause some of the other DJ's seemed blah that I talked to. She responds very quickly to emails, was easy to set up a phone conversation with, and she is a wedding planner also. In many of the reviews, people talked about how it was an advantage to have her there because she was able to get the photographer or videographer when dances were about to start, etc. They play the music you are asking for too. Their prices were some of the best I found- $650 for 4 hours. Their dance floor lighting packages are only $75 and $100, and uplighting is only $25 each. Obviously, I haven't used them yet, but from the experience I've had so far and based on others' reviews, I would definitely recommend them.

    I used Space City Entertainment and I absolutely loved them. I had to plan my Houston wedding from Huntsville and the owner Jonny Black was more than willing to help me in anyway. Since we weren't able to meet in person we communicated via email and phone and everything went very smoothly the day of the wedding.

    I only used him for music because our reception was during the day so we didn't need any lighting, but I do know that they do lighting as well as DJ services. We had a Sunday wedding, so our services were discounted, but we paid 550.00.

    I was extremely pleased with their services, and our guests were coming up after the wedding telling us what a great job he did with everything. I would definitely recommend.
    And now we are as one

    I am also using Space City Entertainment.  They have been a pleasure to work with and I have not had any trouble getting any questions answered or getting a hold of them! Highly recommend using Space City!

    I second LG Entertainment. Ask for Lewis though if he is available.  I just worked a wedding with them a few weeks ago and now they have well over 10 DJs on staff so you will want to know who you are getting (I haven't met them all). He works the crowd and serves as a real MC. The uplighting they do is really nice too. I won't mention names, but there is a popular DJ service here in town that does uplighting and photobooths and their uplighting was just terrible at this one wedding (it was really tacky).

    I'm using Space City, too.  I think they are great!  It's $800 for a Saturday but I booked at a bridal show so it was only $700.  I got them because they have turn tables and can mix music instead of just pushing play on a laptop.
