Vu really listened to what we were after and delivered 100%. Our night was great, the vibe was always right and when it came time to dance the dancefloor was full all night. Thank you, Vu and Melbourne Entertainment Co.” - Catarina & Michael F.

About

Nathan first started Melbourne Entertainment Co. back in 2011. While holding a residency with Nova FM nationally for 6 years, he began building a team of fresh, cool & talented performers to fill a niche in the wedding entertainment market. Seeing many out of touch, un-cool and dated acts, Nathan saw an opportunity to keep weddings exciting and youthful. His goal is to ensure that nobody has to have another daggy wedding DJ for the most important day of their life.

It's YOUR day! You can have a much or as little input into your playlist as you choose. We've developed a simple yet thorough consultation process so that all of your requests are carefully considered and professionally integrated by our music experts.

What is a DJ Band?

The decision to book a DJ or a band has long been the topic of discussion for couples. We believe that we have come up with an innovative solution to this problem: The DJ Band.

Our most popular additions to our DJ sets (in order) are: Singers, Saxophonists, Percussionists, Guitarists, Strings and Pianists. For the best experience, we recommend booking 2 or 3 live elements for your wedding.

Can I choose my DJ, Singer, Sax Player etc?

After discussing your aspirations, we will recommend for your personal selection, a few choice DJs & exciting entertainers whom are available for your wedding.

OR if you spend enough time making decisions, you can leave this up to our expert's professional judgement.

Thank you MelbEntCo for having a diverse talented DJs/MCs/Musicians and we didn't go wrong with choosing Abbey. She's lovely and charming and did an amazing job with DJing and doing vocals plus playing and/or singing , especially with our little guests' requests. <3 ;) Even though we had an intimate celebration, she kept the venue lively and nobody was bored. MelbEntCo is very professional as well, flexible and accommodates with whatever changes we have regarding the booking; organised and communicates constantly, sending forms, checklist and even suggested playlists for every part of the reception program, which is very helpful, and making sure client is on track. Highly recommended company, they've got most of the wedding and any special event services you need. Thank you again to Abbey, for being a part of making our celebration a night to cherish. - Joanne & Reza

We engaged Melbourne Entertainment Co for our reception music after seeing one of their performers DJ and play sax at another wedding, and we couldn’t have been more thrilled with our decision. Jeremy (DJ Jaaz) was both our DJ and saxophonist during the reception, and he was incredible! He brought so much energy to the night, keeping everyone on their feet from start to finish. Jeremy nailed our brief of fun, sing-along songs, blending old and new hits with European classics. A highlight of the evening was our first dance, where Jeremy played the sax over ‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off You’—it was the perfect touch to an unforgettable moment. He was also very familiar with our venue, Coombe, having worked there previously, which gave us even more confidence in our choice. Thank you again to Jeremy and the wider Melbourne Entertainment Co team for your professionalism both in the lead-up to the wedding and on the day itself. You played such an important role in making our celebration so special, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!

Alexandria P.

Thanks so much, Alexandria! 😊 We’re absolutely thrilled to hear how much you loved having Jeremy at your wedding! His DJ and sax combo is always a crowd-pleaser, and it sounds like he brought the perfect energy to your night 🎷🎶 Your first dance must have been such a magical moment—what an incredible song choice! So glad everything came together perfectly, and we truly appreciate your kind words. Wishing you all the best! 🎉✨

We are so glad we decided to choose Tom as our entertainment for our wedding. After seeing multiple samples of Tom’s work, we were very impressed. We had a zoom meeting the week prior to the wedding and Tom made us feel at ease, providing a sample of the cover he had learnt for us, and listening to all of our requests. The booking process was very simple with Mary from MEC. On the day Tom played acoustically for our ceremony, canapes and the first half of our reception which was perfectly performed and complemented by all our guests. He then DJ’d the rest of the night, and even got on the dance floor with us! Tom perfectly nailing the vibe we hoped to achieve at our wedding which made the celebrations feel very ‘us’ and provided entertainment with his dancing and energy which really got the party going. Tom is an extraordinary musician, knows how to read the room perfectly and was a lovely humble person to deal with - do not hesitate to book Tom

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Courtney! 😊 We’re so glad to hear that Tom helped create the perfect atmosphere for your wedding. From the acoustic performance during the ceremony to getting the party going with his DJ set, it’s fantastic that his music and energy truly reflected the vibe you hoped for. 🎶💃 It’s great to know that the booking process was seamless with Mary and that Tom’s personal touch made everything even more memorable. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind words to Tom – he’ll be thrilled to hear how much you appreciated his performance. Wishing you both all the best for your happily ever after! 💕✨

Cannot thank Nathan enough for being such a superstar at our wedding in February. From frequent check-ins leading up to the event to tackling a mid-ceremony outdoor to indoor change due to rain. He was all over the situation and made the transition so seamless. He not only handled the situation with professionalism but also brought an element of calm to myself and my husband. When we were asked for a music brief, after reading the incredible reviews about Nathan, we decided to give Nathan full rain of the music choice, he absolutely nailed it – we’ve never seen so many people on a dancefloor. His exceptional saxophone and trumpet skills were on display and in full force and our guests are still talking about how incredible he was. Cannot thank you enough for making our day so special.

We had Kim as the DJ for our wedding, and we could not have been happier. He hit the brief perfectly and ensured that everyone was having a good time throughout the entire night. Song choices were on point and transitions between parts of the evening were executed flawlessly thanks to his work. He brought very fun and positive vibe to evening, and worked seemlessly with the MC to ensure that everything ran super smoothly. In the lead up to the event Kim and the team were very kind, professional, and enthusiastic to answer any questions that we had. We couldn't recommend Kim and the team at Melbourne Entertainment Company enough, their contributions helped make the event as perfect as it was.

Michael S.

Melbourne Entertainment Co.

Thanks so much, Michael! 😊 We're absolutely delighted to hear how happy you were with Kim as your DJ—he’s a true pro at creating the perfect vibe and keeping the night flowing seamlessly! 🎶✨ It’s fantastic that his song choices and transitions were spot on, and that he worked so well with your MC to keep everything running smoothly. We also appreciate your kind words about the team in the lead-up—providing a great experience from start to finish is what we’re all about! Thanks again for your glowing recommendation, and huge congratulations on your wedding! 🎉💍

What's the best way to incorporate Greek and English music at our reception?

Hi there. My partner is Greek, and I'm Aussie, and our guest list reflects roughly half and half. Wanting to ensure both cultures are represented and have a great time. How best to include music for each so everyone has fun?

Melbourne Entertainment Co.

All of our DJs are very well experienced in playing traditional music from a variety of different cultures for a couple of sets throughout the night. We regularly perform at different types of weddings eg: (Italian/Macedonian/European/Arabic/Greek etc….) whereby a few brackets of traiditional music is played for 5-45 minutes (depending on how long you’re after).

Upon booking with us, you’ll receive a DJ Request/Expectations Form to fill out with room to complete your:

Formality Requests (entry songs / specific dances Yes/No)
Top 10 Must Plays
Additional Song Requests
Traditional/Cutlural Songs
Do-Not-Plays (for any tragic overdone song you don’t want played - no thanks Macarena haha)

You have full customisation over the songs that you wish to hear including the traditional/cultural songs that you’re after.

We may have a list of your nationality's songs which we’ve collected from some previous weddings as inspiration if you like which we can attached. You might like some of these, or they may not be appropriate. We understand that every culture has it’s own specific nuances/tastes - But it’s a starting point!

Do DJ's provide a sound system to use?

Melbourne Entertainment Co.

Absolutely we do yes! All of our DJ quotes include 2x powered PA speakers providing a sound system sufficient for up to a dancefloor of 150 people

Will a wedding band or DJ act as an MC?

Just wondering whether it's common for wedding DJs to also act as an MC?

Melbourne Entertainment Co.

Some DJs and Bands can MC weddings. What is comes down to is your own expectation of what an MC is meant to deliver... If you are only seeking basic announcements such as welcoming your guests and notifying a tradition is imminent, then a confident, experienced and well spoken DJ or band member should be able to deliver this. If you wish for your MC to interact with guests, have a lot of dialogue and be able to deliver it in a personal, charming and engaging style, then you're best off seeking the service of a dedicated Master of Ceremonies whom will have your guests raving!
