Upchurch Event Co is the best. I first met Trey at wedding in September 2023 at Stevenson Ridge. As soon as the wedding ended, I walked up to them to ask for their info for my wedding. Fast forward, to December 2025, Trey dj’ed my wedding. Everything went seamlessly — from the prelude, ceremony, cocktail hour, 5 speeches, reception to the final song at Stevenson Ridge. We had a Sunday brunch wedding so it can difficult to get guests on the dance floor. We had guests from ages 6 - 80. Everyone loved Trey and he had amazing transitions from song to song. My friends want to hire him for their wedding.
We loved Trey so much that we hired Upchurch for our other reception in Valentine’s Day weekend 2026 in Charlottesville. Everything again went without a hitch! He kept up the vibes and we had so many compliments about Trey!

I can't say enough good things about this company--they were truly amazing! We had so many people say that this was the most fun they've had and that was a large part because of our DJ, Trey. We met The Upchurch Event Co at a vendor fair, and from the start, they were absolutely amazing. Andrew was so personable and welcoming when we talked with him about what we wanted out of a DJ and they sure didn't disappoint. I'd highly highly recommend these guys--they're amazing! Shout out to DJ Trey for the best party of all time!

WOW. @UpChurchEventCo absolutely knocked it out of the park! ⚾💙
Trey was the MVP of our wedding — from start to finish, he brought the energy, the heart, and the magic. Having Ab...
by from the FredNats as MC was such an awesome surprise, and together they made the night unforgettable.
The dance floor never emptied (hello, conga line to Garth Brooks), dancing to Pink Pony Club with the firefighters was truly a core memory for me, the final song had everyone in their feels, and our private last dance? Pure perfection. Trey even grabbed a few photos of just us in that moment — total goosebumps.
And that sparkler exit?! Straight movie scene vibes.
Forever grateful — you made the night. 100/10 Hire them.

ding as well. He was super helpful throughout the whole process leading up to the wedding, and on the day of everything was perfect and we had the most amazing dance party!!! The energy Andrew brings is incredible - he really knows how to read a room and had the best bangers playing all night long that had everyone dancing! One of the biggest compliments we've gotten on our wedding is how good the dance floor was and how amazing the energy was, and we attribute a lot of this to Andrew being the perfect DJ!!! We would highly highly recommend him! We also added on the dance party glow sticks to our package which were super fun, and uplighting was an option as well if you choose to pursue it.

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 incredibl...
e 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!

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.

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.

He’s a 1000/10 emcee and I couldn’t even try and count the number of people who afterwards said to us “You guys had one of the best wedding DJ’s of most weddings I’ve been to.” If you’re struggling to find a DJ you can count on — look no further.

Their website portal was easy to use to be sure we were all on the same page with song selections, emcee needs, timeline, etc. We received many compliments after the event on how amazing they were. People kept dancing and stayed until the very end. From the arrival of guests, to introduction of the couple, toasts, first dances, cutting of the cake, dancing and the grand exit, he worked well with the wedding coordinator to ensure that the entire event stayed on schedule and guests were having a good time. All the details were carefully arranged ahead of time so that during the event we were able to be present in the moment and really enjoy our daughter's wedding and reception. It was an amazing time! I would highly recommend Andrew Burlingame and his team at Upchurch Entertainment for any DJ needs. We would definitely use him again!
