Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Hi, and congratulations! We're so happy you found us. đź’Ť
We're The Knox Knot, a team of wedding DJs based right here in East Tennessee. We started as a group of brothers and friends who love music and love a packed dance floor, and weddings became our whole world. It's all we do now, because it's what we love most. There's nothing like a room full of the people you love, the perfect song at the perfect moment, and a celebration that feels exactly like you.
Your day is yours, so we build everything around you. From the moment you book, you get your own personal planning portal, a space where you can map out every song and every moment that matters, at your own pace, right from your phone or your laptop. We're alongside you the whole way, learning your story, your favorite songs, the people you want pulled onto the dance floor, and the little details that make the day yours.
When it's time to celebrate, we take care of all of it. Your ceremony, your cocktail hour, your reception, the MC moments like introductions and announcements, and the lighting that makes the room feel like magic. We take care of the music, the sound, and the setup, so you can be fully present and soak in every second.
That's the heart of what we do. We pour everything into making your celebration feel personal, run beautifully, and stay full of joy, with a dance floor that stays packed all night long.
We would be honored to be part of your day. Reach out and tell us your story. We can't wait to hear it.

Chase was absolutely amazing from start to finish! His process for selecting songs was incredibly easy and stress-free, which made planning so much smoother for us. He played every...
song at exactly the right moment and kept everything flowing perfectly throughout the day.
He handled both our outdoor ceremony setup and indoor reception seamlessly, and everything sounded great. Once the reception started, he truly kept the party going all night long. The dance floor stayed packed, and our guests had an absolute blast. We also really appreciated that he respected our “do not play” list completely — not a single unwanted song was played.
His MC services were fantastic and helped our wedding flow with ease from one event to the next. We received so many compliments from our guests about how fun the wedding was, and a huge part of that was thanks to him. We truly could not have asked for a better DJ!

Me and my wife used the Knox Knot for our wedding this past weekend. I had reached out to Chase several months before while planning and he was extremely helpful and attentive ...
to what we wanted our day to look like and what we wanted the atmosphere to be. I can not speak highly enough of Chase and how awesome he was in the planning process. We weren’t sure what to expect on wedding day but they blew it out of the water. Chase and his wife showed up early and made sure everything was perfect for us as far as music, microphones and speakers. During the ceremony they played everything we asked for at perfect timing and exactly how we asked for it to be done. After the ceremony they not only moved their own stuff into the barn, but they helped move chairs and anything else that they saw needed to be done. They kept the mealtime music lively but not too crazy. Later in the evening Chase came to me and checked in to see how we were doing and if he could do anything for us and then asked if we were ready to dim the lights a bit and turn the party music up. Never in a million years would I have expected anyone there to be dancing. But Chase and his wife turned on the music and they had 20+ people on the dance floor. Not only are they excellent at what they do, they are also very kind and genuine people. Our night would not have been the same without the Knox Knot and I would STRONGLY recommend them for any and all events/weddings you may plan.Â

only listened to our music preferences but also helped us create the perfect playlist that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long.
The energy he brought to the party was contagious—he had the perfect mix of songs that kept the vibe fun and lively. He was a pro at reading the crowd and knew exactly when to turn up the tunes and when to dial it back. If you want someone who knows how to keep the celebration going, Chase is the one you want!
Thanks to him, our wedding was filled with amazing music, great vibes, and memories we’ll cherish forever. Highly recommend!
