We absolutely loved working with Greg, “DJ Doc B,” for our wedding! He was incredibly easy to communicate with and was always available to answer any questions we had. He completely understood our vision for the music and did an amazing job bringing it to life. The dance floor was packed all night long, and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ to keep the party going. We highly recommend Greg to anyone looking for a fantastic wedding DJ
DJ Dan Fletcher worked our wedding. He is a consummate professional, communicative, responsive, and overall a great dude! Even in the weeks after our wedding I'm still getting compliments on the music. He helped ensure that both the ceremony and reception ran flawlessly and was precise with all of his cues.
We also had a phot booth from Modern Era which our guests had so much fun with! They provided a guestbook such that our guests could leave us little notes with the photo strips they took.

Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Modern Era was built on a simple gripe: too many great couples get handed the same tired wedding. The shuffle-play DJ. The mic hog. The dead floor by 9:30.
That's not what Modern Era does. They throw a party. A real one. Live-mixed all night, dialed to your crowd, loud where it should be loud and dead-quiet when you're saying your vows.
They're also the team that built the Signature Wedding Weekend, because your best people flew in for more than four hours on a Saturday. Welcome party, ceremony, reception, after-party, farewell brunch. One team, one vibe, start to finish.
What They Bring
Signature Wedding Weekends: the whole weekend covered, not just the reception
DJs who actually mix: live blends, no pre-recorded mixes on autopilot
MCs who run the night and get off the mic
Live musicians and custom entertainment lineups
Luxury photo booths: designer backdrops, no cardboard props
Lighting and effects: uplighting, sparklers, CO₂, cold sparks, dancing on a cloud, confetti
Full production for multi-space venues and packed timelines

Meet the team
- Michael WillisOwnerMeet MadMike — Owner, Lead DJ & Creator of the Signature Wedding Weekend Mike's journey with Modern Era Weddings started in 2011, when he first joined the company as a DJ in Pittsburgh. After years of perfecting his craft and building a reputation for high-energy, non-cheesy, truly personalized wedding parties, Mike took over ownership of the company in 2015 — bringing his vision for full-scale wedding entertainment to life. In 2017, after DJing one of the founder’s weddings in Miami, Mike expanded Modern Era Weddings into Florida and officially began building what would become the company’s national destination wedding footprint. Over the years, Mike’s approach has evolved far beyond traditional DJ services. His creation of the Signature Wedding Weekend system transformed Modern Era Weddings into a full-service entertainment brand — delivering multi-day wedding experiences that include professional DJs, live musicians, lighting design, photo booths, videography, and full production management for destination weddings, private estates, and resort takeovers across the country and beyond. Today, Mike leads one of the industry’s most respected luxury wedding entertainment teams, personally overseeing each client experience, coaching his DJ team, and designing custom entertainment plans that reflect each couple’s unique style, energy, and vision. Even as Modern Era Weddings has grown into a nationally recognized brand, Mike still operates by the same core philosophy that started it all: Throw the kind of wedding you’d actually want to attend — epic, personal, high-energy, and never cheesy.
