Fig Weddings

re planning process that I had zero worries for the big day. I knew it was going to be good, but Brent far exceeded our expectations. I’m pretty sure half our guests couldn’t walk the next day from dancing all night, which in my eyes is the best sign of a good time!! We’ve gotten so many compliments on how awesome our DJ was from so many of our guests (old and young). Everyone was truly impressed on how high the energy was throughout the night, and we have Brent to thank for that!

and preferences, providing his feedback and opinions, which was helpful for us to make some first song choices and intro choices. He did a great job staying coordinated with our wedding planner leading up to the wedding, and of course our wedding was a blast thanks for Brent's song choices! Highly recommend.

't available for our wedding, she worked with us through the initial planning process, did our intake interview, and facilitated the hand-off to our DJ, Brent. Brent was a JOY to work with - my husband and I are both on the introverted side and in our initial conversation he was so intentional and thoughtful about getting to know us, I felt instantly at ease with him. Communication was flawless and he took it upon himself to learn more about our venue to make sure he could provide the best experience possible for us and our guests. At the reception, he seemed as excited to be there as any invited guest and greeted us with a smile and a huge hug. He took our every request seriously and multiple friends and family made a point to tell me he was one of the best, if not THE best wedding DJ they'd ever heard. I honestly wish I could do it all over just to work with him again.

a general schedule for the evening. The music at the wedding couldn't have been better, providing a great variety, which kept all ages on the dance floor for the whole night. Megan does a great job reading the room and brings a lot of energy to create the best vibes possible. Many guests were raving to us about the DJ the next day. We would definitely recommend Megan and the Fig Team at any future event!

work with and made everything super easy. Our DJ Betty absolutely killed it as an MC and with the music selections. She incorporated the small playlist and must-play songs we provided along with some real crowd-pleasers. We had way more guests out on the dance floor than we expected, while keeping the volume manageable enough for our family and friends to continue their conversations throughout the whole reception. Definitely recommend!

PHENOMENAL throughout our wedding planning process, checking in regularly, offering support and guidance, and even attending our walk through in person to meet other vendors and discuss details for the day of the event with us. Her presence and communication is uniquely authentic and energizing. She did a wonderful job getting to know us, creating thoughtful and intentional plans for our event, and accessing her creativity to match her music choices to the moment. We truly cannot say enough good things about her and the whole Fig Media team!

my final venue walkthrough on short notice so I really appreciated that and it reflects great care and responsibility on the part of Fig! It was nice to work with a nice, trusting team!

o pick it up and slow it down without anyone leaving. Simply amazing! I cannot say good enough things about Brent. Even people at other weddings that attended ours commented on how Brent was the best DJ they’ve ever listened to! One of our friends even hired him for their February wedding at the end of our June wedding before the night was over!!! Hire Brent. You won’t be disappointed. That you for everything Brent!!!!

e than your average DJ, she is worth every penny. She provided such great energy for the event and kept the dance floor packed all night. Since the wedding, everyone - from our grandparents to our friends - have been raving about how great she was. Not to mention the saxophone accompaniment that she recommended, who played over the top of her music and provided an energy boost for an hour in the middle of the night. Our special day truly would not have been the same without her. Photo Credit: Kerri Carlquist Photography

as and was very communicative on the day of the wedding. The music selection was amazing and she really kept the party going the whole evening! Overall, I would 100% recommend Fig Media and DJ Betty to anyone in need of music for their events!

with him initially via zoom and could tell instantly that his bubbly, caring and energetic personality was what we were looking for in a DJ. He truly cared about our story and what our wedding vision was and that came to life on our big day. From start to finish Brent brought all the perfect vibes that we were looking for through out cocktail and into the reception/dance party. From the first song to the very last we didn’t leave the dance floor once and neither did our guests. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and are forever grateful we had Brent and the Fig Media team as a part of our big day! Thank you!! ❤️

ime to get to know both me and my husband, along with talk through what we were envisioning for our day. We mentioned we wanted a high energy dance floor that was packed all night, and Brent absolutely delivered. He is skilled in reading the room and adjusting the music to match the energy of the crowd - we had countless guests comment how skilled Brent was transitioning from song to song, while also choosing songs in such great order that no one wanted to leave the dance floor. Brent is professional, kind, and was an absolute rock to me and my husband on our wedding day. I would recommend him one million times over. Anyone who hires Brent for their DJ needs is in great hands. We are already looking forward to a future event where we can re-work with Brent. Thank you Brent for making our wedding everything we dreamed of!

on the same page and he understood the vibe we were aiming for. He listened to everything we expressed and executed the evening perfectly. He made the reception run smoothly, we didn’t have anything to worry about that evening. Our dance floor was lit the entire evening and we received so many compliments from our guests regarding the DJ and music. We 100% recommend going with Fig for your wedding DJ.

use of her and the amazing energy and vibe she created for us. Besides the actual wedding, she also had amazing music for our dinner and made us a personal playlist for our welcome party boat ride. She also suggested and connected us with live musicians who came in for a set during the dance floor and was a huge highlight for us and our guests.

e crowd to keep the dance floor going. I have been told our wedding was the "most fun wedding i have ever been to" and that is largely do to Brent.

Brian did a great job of communicating and making the wedding day easy and fun and efficient, while also producing stunning photographs. Would absolutely recommend!

sonable. Working with him every step of the way provided an amazing experience. He listened to our input and made great suggestions during the entire process. We were the first wedding ever in our venue (Ford Hangar in Lansing, IL). As it is an extremely large, open space, Brent utilized his expertise to ensure we would have no issues and the best sound quality. He accommodated a non-traditional request, working with a friend who performed our first dance song. He also did an amazing job reading our crowd and keeping the party going all night. We highly recommend Brent and Fig!

e team was very responsive throughout the entire process. We had our initial phone call with Brent who took the time to personally get to know the two of us and find out exactly we were looking for. Overall could not have asked for a better experience, would highly recommend.

us up with a great DJ after learning more about us, our vibe, and vision. CJ’s set at our wedding was absolutely incredible. Our guests were obsessed with his mixes and transitions - he is so talented. The amount of times at our brunch on Sunday someone said to us he was the DJ they've ever seen at a wedding (I definitely agree!) was kinda insane. Good music and a skilled DJ can elevate a reception and he absolutely made the night!

h Zoom. Right from the start, Brent was genuine, compassionate, caring, understanding, knowledgeable and made us feel so comfortable. The DJ was extremely important for us, right after that first meeting we knew Brent was the DJ we wanted for our day. Over the next few months we would meet with Brent multiple times, even just to check-in and say hello. He gave us our wedding planning document that we filled out with the ideal type of wedding, music we like, and timeline. Brent was always willing to answer our questions or help us down our wedding path. For example, we would talk through different options and we'd ask Brent to weigh in with his opinion and flow. He was key in helping us think or ask questions that we hadn't even surfaced yet. He was willing to do an on-site walkthrough and meet with other vendors to make sure everyone was aligned and the day was seamless. When the day finally arrived (12/10/22), it was GREAT! Brent did his thing! More than just the music, Brent commanded the room to keep everyone paying attention and the timeline on-track. He would quiet the room, get the crowds attention, prep the next speaker so they're prepared and ready, it was seamless. These details made the entire day run so smooth. He made sure he knew how to correctly pronounce each persons name and their role in the wedding. We had some custom song requests to blend different versions together and transition at different times, Brent said no problem and made it happen for us! The cocktail hour had perfect music and then came the dance floor...which stayed packed all the way until midnight! The music kept everyone on the floor and the vibes were high! Brent did such an amazing job. We had a final song which he made an announcement to get everyone to the dance floor, he gave time for all of us to congregate and then start the final song, which was important for us. From our initial meeting many months ago to that final song, Brent was incredible and vital to our wedding. We can't thank him enough and we can't recommend him enough! Thank you, Brent!!

Brian.  Pros:  - They are incredibly talented. They captured every moment with artistry beyond what we could’ve hoped for.  - They invest in you. They meet with you before shooting your event and make sure you’re a good fit before even agreeing to work with you. Then, they meet with you to talk about your vision, what you like and dislike. Personally, I’m not very artsy, and so having James’ expertise in helping to provide direction was incredibly comforting. James was always available for questions, etc. He went back and forth with me on engagement outfits and picked us up in his car to take us on our “engagement experience photoshoot”. You will feel like a priority to them, not just another client. They also will make sure they know about your traditions to perfectly capture the special moments. For example, we’re Jewish, so it was important for us to have a team that understood all the parts of traditional jewish ceremonies to make sure they knew where to be and when. This allowed the day-of to go so smoothly.  - They are the perfect balance of get-shit-done and flexibility on wedding day. I didn’t realize until the event how many competing voices start to arise. Jame and Brian made sure to get all the pictures we talked about beforehand and then also took requests from others. They even pulled us aside for a solo picture shoot during part of the dancing and we got photos that we’re in love with!  - They are professional. They showed up on time and ready and were professional (yet themselves, which you’ll love) through the whole day. Caveat to this is that I didn’t deal with any of the scheduling/coordination, since we had a wedding planner who was great and worked with them in the past. Also, plug for Joyce’s Events…Joyce Feuer was the best wedding planner and has done many events with Fig!  - They don’t work by the books. They won’t say you have X-hr event and when X hours is up, we’re out. I don’t even remember our exact contract time, but they showed up during getting ready when we needed them, and when the wedding was dying down, they said hey we got it all, we’re gonna leave. For the engagement shoot, same thing. This could be a pro or a con, depending on your personality. I am type A, so at first, I was worried about how unstructured this felt, but it ended up being way better than the alternative. I wasn’t worried about hitting a time, and having the crew leave on us. I felt like they were part of the family and dedicated to capturing our day perfectly, so if they felt they were done, I trusted that. It ended up working out perfectly.  Cons:  - They are artists, so they need time to do their thing and for you (or your wedding planner) to be organized. Our wedding was the second week of September, and we started to get photos back at the beginning of August. We got the rest at the end of November and are doing a gallery review with them in December. We’re expecting to get the video back soon too, but we haven’t yet. I don’t think this timing is unreasonable, but if you’re someone who values fast turnaround time, you may want to have that conversation with them ahead of booking. They will be honest and real with what they can/cannot do. That’s truly the only “con” I can come up with.

egendary. Our wedding planner came up to us and said it’s rare to see a dance floor as popping as ours was and that was all Brent absolutely vibing with the crowd and knowing what to play next to keep everyone on the floor.

th! Our wedding guests told us that it was the best music at a wedding they had been to; we kept getting compliments on the playlist. Not to mention Brent was able to incorporate songs that pleased a wide range of ages and even included Arabic songs, as requested, that were a hit for our family from Egypt! Thank you Brent; you are awesome and would recommend you x100!

make our wedding as special as possible. We were probably their most annoying clients - we knew what we didn't want to hear but not exactly what we did want to hear and they did such a great job. They worked with us to make our ceremony music work - they had helpful suggestions that weren't in a way pushy and we loved them. The night of, Alvin listened to me and my husband when we wanted to hear certain things and really prioritized what we'd asked for. We are both so grateful we chose to go with Fig!! 10 out of 10, 12 starts, would absolutely recommend going with Fig for any event!

were hoping to see, and they were able to use our band's music so that we'll always be able to remember the music that was such an important part of our big day. We couldn't be happier with our wedding video!

it from the moment we reached out to him until the minute he left the venue. He understood our vision, took the time to get to know us, and executed flawlessly. Book immediately!

very personable and genuine, it was an easy choice to go with Fig. Chris was our DJ day of -- we got lots of compliments on the music and folks have already reached out to us to ask who our DJ was. Chris did a great job reading the vibe of the room ESPECIALLY during the Mother/Son and Father/Daughter dances. Chris must have heard me and my dad saying "wow this is a very long song" as we entered into the third minute of awkwardly dancing in front of a room of people because he faded it out perfectly and you couldn't even tell that wasn't where it was supposed to end. Would definitely recommend Fig.

k the time to get to know my husband and I to create the right energy for our wedding. It was such a perfect day, and a huge reason for that was Brent’s wonderful energy, expert skillset, and ease in working with Fig media. Thank you, Brent and Fig Media!

ecommend them to anyone!

Brent was listening to our needs while offering advice based on his experience. He obviously understood demographics and the vibe of different groups on the dance floor at our reception. Everyone raved about how much fun they had dancing. I feel the flow of the evening was just brilliant — in large part thanks to him. Aunts boogied to the Love Shack.. & by the end of the evening our arthouse friends were raging to Breeders & Hole. Also — I told him I like city pop & future funk and he gracefully wove that into our dinner music??? I was so surprised anyone would vibe with me on my niche interest lol. Getting to hear my favorite songs at my reception was so special. 10/10 #plasticlove

brought something extra to our big day! The team is proactive and really wants to get to know the couple and what they are looking for and then executes perfectly. He even DJ'd our morning ceremony and nailed our Indian/Western fusion needs. You know it's a good DJ when multiple people text you afterwards asking for the playlist (which Brent of course sent us a day after our wedding!)!

d responsive. We strongly recommend Fig!

efore the reception and James took everything in stride and made the new schedule happen. Thank you James for being a part of our wedding!

ents we have received from our wedding guests about her - she truly stole the show. We practically had to drag people off the dance floor at the end of the reception!!

to focused on what they were able to bring to the table, Brent had a different approach in wanting to get to know us first, and what we had envisioned for our wedding. Brent has a warmth and empathy about him that makes bringing that vision to life that much easier. During the planning process Brent was very responsive and provided a lot of advice on everything aspect of the wedding - many of which we hadn’t realized involved his services. Every step of the way we had guidance on how to bring to life the day that we wanted to share with our friends and family. We couldn’t recommend Brent & Fig Media enough to anyone planning their wedding!!

His brilliance was delivering and evening of music and entertainment that spanned 7 generations!

n every way. We plan to maintain a relationship with Brent, Alvin, and team for all our event needs, personal and professional, into the future. Thanks so much for everything on our big day!

ely killed it!! Keeping our guests engaged with more than 10 hours of music is no small feat but Megan made it look effortless and easy. She did a great job of reading the room and keeping the energy up. We received compliments from so many guests and we couldn't be happier. Like many couples planning a wedding during the pandemic, we had to reschedule our wedding, not once, but twice! Fig Media was so easy to work with as we navigated new dates and contracts. They made the whole process as painless as possible.

process and actually took time to get to know us as a couple so that he could personally create a playlist that matched both of our vibes. The dance floor was packed all night and we received so many compliments afterwards. Worth every penny.

get to know us as a couple, our music tastes, overall vibe and vision for our big day! We knew she was a really talented DJ from her reputation, videos etc. - but her personality really blew us away too!! We felt fully confident that she would get the party started and she did just that. So many people came up to us during the wedding and after asking about Megan and telling us it was the best playlist and dance party ever! The way she transitioned the vibe throughout the night, read the room to know what songs to play next, her advice on how to do our entrance and when to have a drummer come out… I could go on and on! Megan played such a big role in making our wedding the best day of our lives. Fig was so easy to work with too - the process was seamless from start to finish. We truly can’t recommend Fig and Megan Taylor enough!!!

e even was so gracious enough to come to our rehearsal so we had music to practice walking down the aisle. Brent is incredibly professional, knowledgable, kind, and knew how to work a crowd! He takes the time to get to know you and your partner as individuals and as a couple before working with you and helping you create an amazing playlist of songs. I have a lot of friends and family members getting married this year and I have recommended Fig Media to all of them. There is no one else I would trust more than Brent to provide entertainment to a party/event!

ful that she connected us! Brent was our DJ, and he was truly AMAZING! He really got to know who we were, our vibe, and what we were looking for on our big day. Brent closely communicated with our coordinators at the venue to make sure everything was smooth the day of. He also went above and beyond and attended our rehearsal dinner just to make sure everyone had the music down before the day of! One main thing we told Brent was that we just wanted all of our guests to have a blast and party, and he absolutely delivered. The music was such a big part to the night, and we are SO thankful to have worked with Brent!

ky to have Brent host/DJ our wedding. His choreographed playlist was perfect, his warm personality always shined through and his kind demeanor was welcomed by our guests. He felt like an old friend that had always been in our life and the perfect person to provide our guests with the songs and roadmap to the evening. We are so thankful that we got to know Brent and were graced by his wonderful talents. We couldn’t recommend someone more! - Gya’ & Nnenna

both a Zoom and in person meeting prior to the wedding, and he took the time to get to know our whole story and how we wanted our day to look. On our wedding day, he was organized and professional - everything was perfectly set up and ready to go. He did the sound for our ceremony as well, and it went so smoothly. He is high energy and really engages everyone at the wedding! We had so many people tell us after that he was "the best DJ they had ever seen". His music choices were great and the dance floor was full the entire night. When we told him that my husband's grandparents would both be at the wedding (married for over 60 years), he had us find out their wedding song and he played a very special moment for them on the dance floor. We cannot recommend him enough!!
