When our go-to DJ was unavailable for our wedding, we had no idea who else to reach out to or where to start. The Knot did help us find Turn Up Nashville, who were excellent at com...
munication, reasonably priced, and who brought us Jared, our DJ. He was perfect for us -- full of excitement and confidence, and he listened to what we wanted and actually delivered. He pivoted with us on a couple of extenuating circumstances and took a lot of worry and headache away from us and brought the energy for the party. Whatever you want at your wedding, this man can make it happen.
Also, the photo booth coupled with the printed pictures and photo book were a MUST have. Not only were they great photos, but we the book the perfect keepsake from our wedding full of pictures of everyone from our wedding night, and little handwritten notes included above.

Turn Up Nashville went above and beyond through the planning process and on our wedding day. From the start our DJ, Jared, was extremely helpful in bringing out details and identif...
ying things that we never would have thought of. He had meetings with us about 6 months out and 3 months out so the timeline of the evening and the details are all squared away well before the normal 30 day mark. So when all the other vendors needed those details, we already knew the answer, which was a huge relief during the final month of planning. During the wedding and ceremony we knew that we needed a solid DJ that could MC the night and run things so we did not have to. Jared delivered on this by keeping the party going, making sure dances and speeches were on time, as well as adjusting to vibes in the room all night. Also shout out to Tyler who went above and beyond for a later add of a photobooth for us. We seriously can't recommend these guys enough, they made the planning process smooth, as well has ran the ceremony music and reception perfectly!

Tyler was the BEST! We just got married on 10/17 and our dance floor was rocking because of Turn Up Nashville and DJ Tyler! Our guests had the best time and we rarely left the danc...
e floor the whole night. The planning process was amazing. Tyler really took the time to get to know us as a couple, our musical tastes and learn what we wanted for our wedding and he nailed it!! My husband and I had a specific vision for the dance floor and the type of music we wanted to hear and Tyler listened to everything we wanted and delivered! He nudged us in certain directions based on his expertise when we were unsure of certain things and I’m glad we listened. The whole night was incredible. Our guests kept saying how great the music was and how much fun they had on the dance floor! I also have to mention the uplighting. It adds so much to the dance floor and it was better than I could have imagined. If you’re a bride and groom looking for a DJ - book Turn Up Nashville and more specifically, DJ Tyler! You definitely won’t regret it! THANK YOU TYLER!!!

d the room and know exactly when to change the song and Roland nailed it! He picked up on the energy of the party perfectly and kept the dance floor alive all night.
What really stood out is that he went above and beyond just the DJ role. Not only was he professional, kind, and such a positive presence on our big day, but he also stepped in to help with photography and little things that most DJs would never think to do. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great he was.
We had talked about weaving in a little EDM during the reception, and he executed that flawlessly, it added the exact vibe we wanted without missing a beat. Roland truly gave us everything we hoped for in a DJ and so much more. I would recommend him to anyone looking for not just a DJ, but a supportive, upbeat professional who genuinely cares about making your wedding unforgettable!

Where to begin. Tyler (DJ The Hacker) was more than just a DJ at our wedding. He helped us coordinate basically everything from start to finish. He gave us pointers and tips that w...
ere beyond helpful in creating a timeline and he was able to get everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, get up and start dancing with his song selections. He was very open with our “must play” list and made sure to include all of our selections. If you come across this review, seriously look no further. My now wife and I are very very big music fans and we knew that the DJ would be the life of the party. Tyler met and infinitely exceeded our expectations. Tyler, thank you so so much for DJing our wedding. You were one of the biggest reasons that the day was absolutely perfect.

Immaculate vibes across the board!! Tyler, @dj_thehacker, was absolutely what we wanted for our wedding. From the getgo he was so genuine and helpful, we knew we were in great hand...
s. We ended up getting the Legendary tier and HE ATE! I was initially worried that my Latino side of the family wouldn't get their bops, but TYLER made sure that our night was the perfect balance of English and Spanish songs. I would HIGHLY recommend this company and the vibes they have to offer. You won't regret having Tyler making your night legendary! We are so honored and proud to have been this company's first LGBTQIA+ wedding. 11/10 recommend.

If you’re looking for a DJ for your wedding you can STOP RIGHT HERE because you’ve already found the best one. Tyler was absolutely amazing and I honestly don’t know what I would h...
ave done without him. As a bride, I was so overwhelmed with planning since, you know, I’d never planned a wedding before. But Tyler went above and beyond to schedule planning meetings, walk through all the different music options, find specific songs I wanted, and really get to know me and my fiancé to ensure the music and atmosphere at our wedding was perfect for us and our wants/needs.
We started by simply hiring a wedding DJ but ended up feeling like we found a friend with Tyler. Couldn’t recommend him enough!!

We hired Tyler to blend music from both of our cultures (African and American) for our wedding reception . We could not have been more happy with our decision. Tyler worked with ...
us to select important tracks and did a substantial amount of his own research. The result was a seemingly effortless blend of 2 cultures for a fantastic reception. We received so many complements from our guests on the music and Tyler really deserves the majority of the credit.

Nashville,
Y’all ain’t ready for Mr. Tyler!!! I had the incredible opportunity to hire Tyler for my wedding and it was the best choice I have ever made (maybe besides the choice in...
groom). Working with Tyler was completely easy and stress-free. He made me and my husband feel so great- nothing was off limit, nothing was a silly idea, everything was just a complete party- and that was only the consultations!! The day of, Tyler delivered incredible service. We STILL have people talk to us about the dance party at our wedding, it was that good! Tyler ensured we had a fabulous time, that our guests had a fabulous time, and just everything was perfect. If you hire anyone else other than Tyler, you are severely missing out.
Tyler’s energy, care, and supreme craft will make your wedding, birthday, or event just that much more spectacular!!! Do it! Hire Tyler!!
