Old Cigar Warehouse Wedding DJ | Greenville, SC | Megan & Wyatt

We met this sweet couple a little over a year out from their wedding date. They both were so sweet to work with and full of love for one another. What started out as two best friends in college, ended up in one of the dreamiest weddings we had ever had. 

Megan and Wyatt chose one of the most well-known venues in Downtown Greenville, Old Cigar Warehouse. Built in 1882, the building was once used as a cigar and cotton warehouse. Over the years, it has transformed from a grocery store distribution center, a gospel choir music hall and even once was a rock-climbing gym. In 2013, the owner of Old Cigar Warehouse discovered this hidden gem that had been left unoccupied for nearly a decade. After a very detailed renovation process, the building is now one of the most iconic and historic landmarks in Greenville, South Carolina. 

Their wedding was simple and sweet just like the two of them. They chose to have a smaller wedding where they were surrounded with close family and friends but they do not be fooled because their reception was larger than life. Megan and Wyatt thank you for allowing us to be part of your special day. We wish you all the best and many years of happiness.

Wyche Pavilion Wedding DJ | Greenville, SC | Sarah Elizabeth & Jordan

When we first met with Sarah Elizabeth and Jordan, we immediately knew they both shared a love for all things Clemson. They met at Tiger Town Traven (also known as Triple T’s) downtown Clemson where their love for cornhole began. They quickly grew very fond of one another and often shared laughs on the kitchen floor eating Pizza Rolls after late nights out with friends. 

Sarah Elizabeth and Jordan chose to have their reception in one of the most iconic churches in South Carolina, Cliffs at Glassy Chapel. After ceremony, their guests made their way back down the mountain to one of our favorite venues downtown, The Wyche Pavilion. Known for its beautiful venues, this historic open-air venue is every bride’s dream. 

Their guests were full of energy and great dance moves; from shagging to dropping it low, they all knew how to get down on the dance floor. Just before the night ended, Sarah Elizabeth and Jordan wanted to share their love for a late-night pizza roll snack. Their sendoff was one of a kind and something we do not see often. They wanted everyone to send them off in true Tiger fashion but waiving Tiger Rags and pompoms as the Clemson cadence count. 

Jordan and Sarah Elizabeth, may your love for one another be more than your love for pizza rolls and the Clemson Tigers. It was truly an honor getting to rally (ha, see what we did there?) with you and your guests throughout the night. Also, did we mention they had the most epic dream team of vendors?! Check out everyone that made this sweet couple’s day just as special as they are at the bottom!

Rocky River Plantation Wedding DJ | Anderson, SC | Madi & James

To say that James and Madi were faced with multiple obstacles during the last few months leading up to their wedding would be an understatement. COVID not only pushed back their wedding celebration from the original April date but also changed the venue a few times as well. Throughout all the changes Madi and James both continued to show us that love always prevails. 

Madi and James chose to tie the knot at a beautiful estate in Anderson, South Carolina called Rocky River Plantation on the 4th of July. Rocky River Plantation was built in 1913, and has been handed down through several prominent families over the years. Once known as Valley View, this exquisite home now serves as an event venue where history, tradition and elegance are brought together. 

Their tented reception was one for the books! Their guests came prepared to celebrate this special couple in every way imaginable. The dance floor was packed with dancing queens and shirtless groomsmen. Halfway through the evening, Madi and James snuck away for a firework photoshoot and trust us when we say the picture do not do it justice! 

James and Madi, thank you for giving us something else to celebrate this year! We were truly honored to have been part of your special day. Madi and James’ day would not have been possible without their vendor team. Check out the all-star team at the bottom after these incredible pictures from that day.

Where do I begin with Katherine and Britt's wedding reception and celebration. At Uptown Entertainment, we have been focusing on elevating the aesthetics and appearances of wedding entertainment. Their wedding featured our new Luxe Package, with custom built DJ booth, uplighting, and premium lighting and sound. Not only did we have an amazing DJ setup, but we also provided our ALL NEW Motion Monogram on their dance floor (see pictures below). On top of all of that, we created a custom ceiling lighting design an incorporated a floral motif to carry the over-the-top floral theme all the way through their wedding celebration. All of this came together so well and it looked AMAZING! Now that I've geeked out about what we provided, let me say that we had a stellar reception, full of love, special moments, and LOTS of dancing. Without further adieu, scroll down to see their beautiful wedding day in pictures.

Nicole and John | Westin Poinsett | Wedding DJ and Uplighting in Greenville

Upon meeting with Nicole and John, I could tell that wedding entertainment was at the top of their list. We are always honored when someone is looking for the best wedding DJ in Greenville, SC to fit their needs. They had already teamed up with some folks we love to work with and we too started planning for their wedding. Fast forward to their wedding day. Their reception was held in the Poinsett Room at The Westin Poinsett in downtown Greenville. We not only provided the DJ aspect of entertainment, but we also had our open-air photo booth on site (see the photobooth pics here), as well as our beautiful uplighting to round out their gorgeous venue. As you can see in the pictures, their wedding day was full of beautiful moments and a TON of fun, which takes me to their wedding celebration. Simply put, it was a BLAST! Packed dance floor, smiles all around, and a bride and groom having the time of their lives.
