What Is a Wedding Rehearsal? Everything You Need to Know

"Eric and the team at BSE was phenomenal. Being able to read a room and vibe completely enhanced our wedding and reception. We received so much positive feedback from our friends and family. Could not possibly give a higher recommendation."

"Thank you Baltimore Sound and DJ Jeff for giving us the best night! The music at our wedding was perfect and brought all of our friends and family together. Our custom gobo transformed the dance floor and turned out so beautiful in our photos. Baltimore Sound will help make your wedding a wonderful experience for everyone!"

"They made the whole event seamless and FUN! DJ Agustina rocked the house and I enjoyed collaborating with her in the weeks coming up to the event to get the right vibe for the party. The evening was epic, she was professional and set up the equipment quickly and seamlessly. Thank you, team!"

"If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. All I can say is WOW! Eric and the entire team at Baltimore Sound Entertainment absolutely exceeded every expectation we had. From day one, Eric was fantastic to work with. After just a few calls and meetings, it was clear he immediately understood our vision. He was professional, organized, and incredibly easy to work with. He walked us through all of our options, made thoughtful recommendations, and was honest about what made sense for our wedding and what didn’t. We never felt like we were being sold anything—we felt like we had a true partner helping us create the perfect celebration. Music was one of the most important parts of our wedding because we had guests from South America, Central America, the Midwest, Florida, and all over the country. We had multiple generations and a wide range of musical tastes, and our goal was simple: keep the dance floor packed all night. Eric absolutely delivered. From the very first song until the very last, the dance floor was completely full. I’m not exaggerating when I say there wasn’t a moment all night that people weren’t dancing—including our grandparents! The transitions between genres, decades, and cultures were seamless. We gave Eric a little inspiration and trusted him to take it from there, and he absolutely crushed it. The energy never dropped, and so many guests told us afterward it was one of the best wedding dance floors they’d ever experienced. The professionalism was equally impressive. Eric arrived early, completed a full setup, thoroughly tested everything, and made sure every detail was flawless before guests even arrived. It gave us complete confidence that everything was taken care of. As if that wasn’t enough, Eric also connected us with incredible live music for our welcome party and helped bring in Jay on the saxophone for the reception. Jay was an absolute fan favorite. If you’re even questioning whether you should add a live saxophone to your wedding… stop thinking about it and just do it. It was one of the best decisions we made. Jay absolutely killed it all night long, feeding off the music and the crowd, and he and Eric worked together so seamlessly that it elevated the entire experience. It created moments our guests are still talking about weeks later. The entire process was easy, the pricing was very reasonable, and the value was unbelievable. Eric, Jay, and the entire Baltimore Sound Entertainment team helped create what was truly the best party—and the best night—of our lives. We cannot thank you enough for helping make our wedding so unforgettable. We would recommend Baltimore Sound Entertainment without hesitation to anyone looking for an incredible DJ and entertainment team."

"Eric was an absolute pleasure to work with from the very beginning. He was always responsive, easygoing, and just genuinely fun to work with throughout the entire planning process. We honestly didn’t give him a ton of direction—we shared a few songs and the general vibe we were going for, but we definitely gave him a challenge! Our playlist included everything from Spanish music and Latin club hits to classic rock, country, and just about everything in between. Somehow, Eric blended it all together seamlessly and kept the energy flowing all night long. On our wedding day, he wasn’t just our DJ—he felt like a friend. He brought incredible energy, knew exactly how to read the crowd, and kept the dance floor packed from the very first song until our last dance. And I truly mean packed. People who never dance were out there all night—even my 76-year-old grandma was out busting moves! That alone says everything. Jay, our saxophonist, was the perfect addition to the night. Having live saxophone mixed into the music was such an awesome touch, and Jay didn’t just stand in one place—he walked around the dance floor interacting with our guests, and everyone absolutely loved his vibe. It brought so much energy to the party and made the entire experience feel unique and unforgettable. If you’re questioning whether or not to pay for the saxophone, just do it. I’m telling you—it is insanely worth it! It took the party to a whole different level, and our guests are still talking about it. I’m honestly sad I don’t get to plan another wedding because I’d hire Eric and Jay again in a heartbeat. Thankfully, we’ll definitely be bringing them back for future business parties and events. If you’re looking for a DJ who can read the crowd, mix multiple genres flawlessly, and create an unforgettable party, look no further. Eric and Jay exceeded every expectation we had, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you both for giving us the wedding reception of our dreams!"

"Jeff was an awesome DJ for our wedding. The photo booth was a big hit! Jeff did a great job with curating music for the entire event based on the Spotify playlist we shared with him. Definitely recommend BSE for your event!"

"Eric dj'ed our wedding on 4/18/26 and it was AMAZING! I constantly tell people that it was the best day ever and that I couldn't have imagined it going more perfectly. The dance floor was lively all night!! I (the bride) did not sit down ONCE and my husband and I received so many compliments about Eric and the vibes he brought! I even recommended him to a few who asked about the dj! Throughout the entire wedding planning process, I felt Eric really understood what vibes we wanted for our wedding and made himself available to talk it through multiple times. 10/10 experience and would 10000% book again if/when we have another big event!"

"Wow. What an incredible experience… when we hired Eric and his team for our wedding, we really hadn’t thought about the first dance, special songs, ect., as we wanted a casual event, ( for 150 guests :). Eric asked questions, offered suggestions, and made us feel so confident that we left most of the details to him and his team. They executed the event perfectly- he brought in a Photo Booth- ( HUGE HIT of the night), a videographer- we weren’t having a professional photographer and I am so glad in hindsight his team captured the entire day, and the music…. He perfectly “ worked” the crowd with background music, upping the vibe through dinner and ending with everyone on the dance floor. This company knows what they do best and it really showed on our wedding weekend! We highly recommend!"

"Everything was effortless from our end. We had only 2–3 planning meetings before the wedding, and after that, everything was in Eric’s capable hands. The ceremony transitions were flawless and felt incredibly smooth, and he guided the entire evening seamlessly—filling in gaps, keeping the timeline on track, and getting guests out on the dance floor. Every song was a hit, and our guests danced for nearly four hours straight. People were raving about the music all night, and we received so many compliments on the playlist and overall energy of the reception. We also had several specific song requests, including tracks from smaller bands, and Eric had absolutely no issues accommodating them. The equipment was professional, high-quality, and looked great in our venue. The microphones worked perfectly for both the ceremony and speeches, ensuring everyone could hear clearly without any technical issues. Eric did an incredible job reading the room, keeping the energy high, and making the entire evening feel effortless. If you’re planning a wedding, look no further than Baltimore Sound Entertainment. Hiring them was one of the easiest and best vendor decisions we made, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly."

"Eric and his team were AMAZING! Even weeks later after our wedding we are still getting compliments on how good he was blending the wide variety of music we enjoy and keeping the energy high all night. He was a joy to work with leading up to our wedding as well, really listening to us during every meeting and understanding the tone we wanted to set throughout the night. The quality of a DJ really determines how well the reception goes and Eric was WELL worth it! 1000% recommend these guys."

"We had an amazing experience with DJ Alex from Baltimore Sound Entertainment at our son Elan’s Bar Mitzvah! From the very beginning, Alex was incredibly attentive to all of our requests, easy to work with, professional, and genuinely friendly. He made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. During the celebration, the atmosphere was absolutely incredible. Both adults and children were fully engaged and on the dance floor the entire night! Alex knew exactly how to keep the energy high and the party going while making everyone feel included and entertained. What truly stood out was his flexibility and dedication. He went beyond his usual schedule to make sure everything was perfect and that we were completely satisfied. His commitment and passion for what he does were evident throughout the entire event. We are so grateful to Baltimore Sound Entertainment and especially DJ Alex for helping make Elan’s Bar Mitzvah such a memorable and joyful celebration. I would highly recommend the company — and DJ Alex in particular — to anyone looking to create a fun, energetic, and unforgettable party atmosphere!"

"Alex was a phenomenal DJ for our event! He read the crowd perfectly and played what kept our guests on the dance floor. He was also happy to extend our time after a medical emergency halted festivities for a small amount of time. Can’t recommend him enough! BSE was great to work with in general as well. Very accommodating and well priced!"

"DJ Jeff was truly one of the best parts of our wedding. He has such a great energy and brought so much positivity and excitement to the planning process and the day itself. So many guests at our wedding were raving about the music, and the dance floor was packed until the very last song. Jeff is a true pro, and went above and beyond multiple times, including creating a custom mix for one of our special dances and running across the venue with a portable speaker to make sure that every area had sufficient music during cocktail hour. Also his setup was super slick and his MCing was on point. Thank you, Jeff and Baltimore Sound!"

"We cannot recommend Baltimore Sound enough! We just had our wedding at the Evergreen Museum and Library and DJ Eric absolutely crushed it–from the very beginning of hiring him to the last moment of the reception! Eric is so kind, enthusiastic, and easy-going, and as a vendor, he was responsive and very flexible! And most importantly, he completely understood our goal of delivering on our very specific ceremony songs and keeping the dancefloor high energy all night! He went above and beyond to support us throughout the entire wedding weekend. The entire Baltimore Sound team made us feel like we were their only client and we had full trust throughout the entire wedding planning process that they were the right choice. We loved having Eric leading our music on our wedding day. We’re so pleased with how seamlessly he mixed all of our favorite songs to keep the dancefloor going and how sweet it was to see him having a good time as well! We highly recommend Eric and his super competent team at Baltimore Sound if anyone is looking for reliable and fun DJ services for their event!"

"Alex was fantastic to work with. He really listened to what we needed and adjusted the sound level, ambiance, and music selection perfectly throughout the event. The balance he created made it easy for guests to enjoy the music while still being able to talk and connect. Everything felt thoughtful and well-timed. I would absolutely hire him again for future events."

"After our first conversation with Eric and Josh, we were so confident in and excited about our choice of working with Baltimore Sound for our wedding. They made the process fun leading up to the day and absolutely crushed it day of. Everything from our jazz trio during cocktail hour, uplighting, band during dinner and dj during reception was so smooth and fun. Our dance floor was popping all night thanks to their team (especially the sax player who melded with Eric's djing toward the end of the night). Everyone keeps talking about how the sax addition was so cool and unique. HUGE thank you to Eric and Josh and the whole team who brought the best vibes from start to finish!!!"

"Jeff was the star of our wedding day. Everyone at Baltimore Sound Entertainment was great to work with throughout the planning process, and on the day of, we were able to sit back and enjoy the party. The mics were just right for all of the speeches, and Jeff cut the songs for our official dances perfectly, avoiding any awkward hang time or long intros. We told him that we wanted the late-night portion of the reception to feel like a crowded bar at the Jersey shore, and he delivered big time. Jeff created a mix that ensured the dance floor stayed packed all night long; his playlist made sure there was something for every single one of our 250 guests to sing along too. Three guests at our reception have now booked with Baltimore Sound Entertainment and Jeff for their own weddings, after having such a great time. We cannot recommend them enough!"

"Eric and the team behind Baltimore Sound Entertainment brought the party and were an awesome partner for our wedding. From the beginning in the planning process, Eric encouraged and emphasized that we can have the event and music that we want, even when it differs from “standard” wedding norms. He was flexible and patient as we struggled to make decisions. He did not balk when we mentioned the eclectic range of music that we were hoping to play, and on the night of the wedding, he proved why. Eric is an impeccably skilled DJ and was able to blend multiple genres, tempos, and different types of music to keep the dance floor full and the people happy. His transitions were buttery smooth, and he had great musical progression through the evening to keep the party going without feeling stale. Beyond the DJ work, the uplighting Baltimore Sound Entertainment provided helped to elevate the space, and their photobooth services were top notch. We easily provided a custom template to use for the photo strips that looked fantastic, and the staff working the booth was attentive, helpful, and patient with guests. Baltimore Sound Entertainment curated and cultivated the vibes through the entire evening of our wedding, and they helped keep the party going so hard that the venue had to shut us down. We would gladly recommend Eric and the team behind Baltimore Sound Entertainment for events in the future!"
