  • Grant Hemond & Associates has grown over the years, yet still maintains such a personal experience for each wedding. They were so helpful. They spoke with us over the phone before our day to make sure they set the tone for our wedding well. They walked us through songs for all the minor parts of the wedding and even coordinated A/V with a friend who sang at our wedding. It was very personalized, and they were very easy to work with! We played our music during the reception and had so much fun with our family and friends.

  • We wanted someone who understood the vibe we wanted to capture for our wedding day, FUN! Our goal was to have everyone out on the dance floor and appease all different age groups with our music choices.

    We hired Grant Hemond & Associates because they came highly recommended by so many different websites I did research through. Eric was one of the DJs I kept on coming across on the reviews. I was so excited when he was available on our wedding date. After our initial introduction with Eric, we knew we were in excellent hands. He was incredible. We still have guests telling us they never wanted to leave at the end of the night because it was so much fun.

    He was incredibly personable and asked a lot of great questions to get to know us a week prior to the wedding. He made a lot of great suggestions for songs we were struggling with for certain parts of the wedding. We shared with him that our goal was to have everyone dancing and he delivered exactly that. We were blown away!

  • We focused on the guests’ experience, keeping it fun and lively with lots of great music, drinks, and dancing. We wanted a DJ who would keep everyone on the dance floor!

    Grant Hemond & Associates was a recommendation from our planner, as well as other friends who had used them before. Our DJ was great; he even let some guests get behind the table and have a little fun with the music!

    – Erin and Jack |
  • Making sure our guests had a great time was important. Every important song played was carefully curated and had significant meaning. We wanted someone who would bring the party, but also be respectful to the important songs we wanted.

    “I loved working with Grant Hemond & Associates and find them so talented! They are always a blast, and it’s visible when the dance floor is full!”

    – Nicole and Richard |
  • I just wanted a DJ who would keep the party going and be able to read a room. Grant Hemond & Associates had great reviews, and they had reviews on several DJs! I had heard from multiple people that Grant Hemond had DJed for their wedding, and I only heard good things!

    The most memorable part of the reception was dancing and getting to become the DJ at the end of the night! We had so many people on the dance floor just dancing the night away!

  • When looking for a wedding DJ, it is so important that you book a qualified and well-rated DJ. Grant Hemond & Associates has the best ratings in Tampa. I work with their team almost every weekend and can’t say enough amazing things about them.

    I have gotten to know their DJs very well, especially one in particular. I had worked with Eric Harding with Grant Hemond at several weddings in the past. I always loved his music and his vibe. I thought he was so talented, kind, and polite. Eric definitely felt like the best fit for us, and as predicted, he did amazing!

    – Lauren and Chris |
  • With a guest list filled with those who love to dance we knew the dance floor would be important and wanted a DJ who could keep the party going. DJ James King with Grant Hemond was the perfect choice for us because he was able to incorporate a playlist that catered to a wide age range of guests while still maintaining fantastic energy. He played all of the right songs at all of the right times and we could not have been happier!

    – Sarabeth and Nick |
  • When we hired Grant Hemond and Associates for our wedding DJ, we wanted someone who could read the room very well and play appropriate music to enhance the mood. Our families have a mix of older adults as well as children and so we made sure to have him play the music that was appropriate for all age groups.

    – Rosie and Casey |
  • We wanted a DJ who would play great music and keep the evening running smoothly.

    We hired Jody from Grant Hemond & Associates because he had great reviews, and he was happy to let us choose as much or as little of the music as we wanted. He also did an awesome job setting up uplighting around the ballroom!

    – Alicia and William |
  • We wanted our wedding DJ to be flexible and fun. 

    Grant Hemond & Associates was always on our radar, as we have a family friend who DJs for them. They took time to get to know what type of music we wanted, and they delivered. We had a few random requests that were fulfilled, an impromptu karaoke performance, and a very special tribute to our grandparents. Without that bias, they were an easy 10/10! They made our wedding day so much fun and we highly recommend James King. 

    – Jordi and Matt |
  • We wanted a DJ who could keep the party going! We hired Grant Hemond & Associates because we had seen them in action and knew they would kill it. The music and flow of the day was perfect thanks to them! 

    – Jordan and Jordan |
  • When it came to a DJ, we wanted someone with experience! Ideally, we wanted to completely trust our DJ and not have to create a specific playlist for the whole four hours. We wanted someone who could entertain, take charge, and keep people on the dance floor all night! We hired Grant Hemond & Associates because literally every vendor could not recommend them enough! We also received mail from them shortly after our inquiry. We were extremely impressed with their promptness and willingness to answer all of our questions.

    – Caitlin and Kyle |
  • We looked for one that had great reviews. We wanted a DJ who would keep the dance floor going all night.

    We decided to hire Grant Hemond & Associates because they were a preferred vendor of The Tampa Club and had amazing reviews. They allowed us to speak with a few of their DJs before booking to ensure we were comfortable with who was selected for our wedding. Before the wedding, our DJ had a thorough list of questions for us to answer. He went through each question with us, took our suggestions, and created a great playlist for each part of the night. Their service was amazing.

    – Alexa and Nick |
  • We hired Grant Hemond and Associates because they were on the preferred vendor’s list with The Don CeSar and we wanted someone who would definitely get our party started and would keep people up and dancing and having the time of their life.

  • Grant Hemond & Associates was on my radar from a bridal show and my planner’s DJ recommendations. Then I learned that they partnered with Hotel Zamora and one of their wedding packages included a DJ from Grant Hemond. We got paired with the wonderful Steve Lange. He was so great. You could really tell he had been playing weddings for a while, and he made everything so easy and fun. My reception guests danced the night away with Steve. 10-star service definitely!

    – Kate and Markus |
  • A true DJ who was able to mix songs and keep the dance floor full. It was also important to have someone who understood the audience and was nimble to adjust sounds based on the dance floor’s responses.

    Grant Hemond & Associates were incredible, and Adam was able to play all the songs on our list and then some. After the wedding, people of all ages and generations came up to us, boasting about how much they loved the playlist.

    – Amanda and Brandon |
  • We actually got a recommendation to use Grant Hemond & Associates from our photographer during our consult. We felt like since our photographer had a good idea of who we were (and shared our belief that a DJ can make or break a reception), we trusted his recommendation on selecting Grant Hemond!

    We chose them because of how easy it was to work with them, and how it seemed like their style would work well with ours for entertaining.

    – Tiffany and Mike |
  • Someone who would take a sample of song requests and make a playlist out of it.

    Grant Hemond & Assoc. were incredible with communication, song suggestions, and kept the party going all night long.

    – Sarah and Josh |
  • DJ Eric Harding at Grant Hemond & Associates was an MVP for sure! He has the absolute most wonderful presence, did a wonderful job providing sound at our ceremony and cocktail hour, and mixed club-worthy music for the reception. A DJ really carries the execution of your timeline from the guest’s perspective, and he delivered it flawlessly. Our dance floor was on fire!
