A Record Year Comes to a Close!
12-29-2015
2015 was a year for the record books here at Amp’d Entertainment! We set new standards and rocked a record 300 plus events! Here is our annual year in review!
January
The very start of 2015 would start with a bang as we were honored to be named Top 5 DJs by Modern Luxury’s Atlantan Brides Magazine!
The start of the year would also be very exciting as we continued our partnership with StudioWed Atlanta and moved into our first dedicated office and warehouse located inside of the studio .
Stop by and see some great new additions to our office in 2016! There are some amazing event photos as well new awards that will grace our wall.
2015 was also our first full year under the newer logo, name and brand identity, Amp’d Entertainment (previously, Amp’d Atlanta). The change was made partly because we had the opportunity to expand into other markets but we also were able to perfect our Remix’d Weddings craft under the new brand. This was also our first ever year with dedicated and trained employees. Our moto, the official home of Remix’d Weddings was earned through several hours of practice, dedication to our craft and execution of our brand at our 300 plus events!
Some of our all-star staff members came aboard as full time employees and really shined this year!
2015 was our first year participating in the first ever Lovesick Expo! DJ Bigg H was a huge hit and we’re looking forward to rockin’ out our Remix’d Weddings Set once again in 2016! Check out our live set below.

February
Amp’d sets sail for Charleston, SC participating in the Scarlet Wedding Tour! DJ Bigg H displayed a fantastic Remix’d Wedding Set for locals looking for a unique wedding experience in the south. Look out for Remix’d Weddings to hit the coast in 2016! Our first wedding in Chucktown will be in January 2016!
March
Amp’d Entertainment once again partnered with Spiral Entertainment! DJ Sires rocks out the Remix Dance Floor Set at Park Tavern for Lucky Fest!
April
Prom! Amp’d Entertainment shows we can Remix any event and for all ages! Our Dueling DJ Set up with Overhead “Nightclub” Style Moving Heads, Bumping Sounds System and LED Light Show was sure to impress. This was our debut of the Dueling DJ set up and it is now our standard option for teen events, Bar/Bat Mitzvahs, Sweet 16s, School Events and more!
April would also be an amazing month as DJ Bigg H hosts special guest Cash Money, DJ Mannie Fresh. This Persian/American wedding had it all! Authentic Persian cuisine with an American twist, Persian music sprinkled in with American dance classics, and an incredible mix of family and friends that partied well into the night!!!
May
It’s Wedding Season and that means it’s time to bring out the Wedding Mashers! It was our largest May to date. We were able to perform some Spring Weddings for some of our closets friends as well!
One of our most iconic event photos was captured by the Willetts!
June
Our recent membership with GaMPI landed us a sponsorship at the 2015 Phoenix Awards. It was held at one our newest and favorite spots, American Spirt Works! We have several events booked at the Stave Room inside American Spirit Works and it’s an impressive new spot in Atlanta!
The end of June marked that the year was half way over, so our team got together for an End of 2nd Quarter Party at one of our partner venues, Monday Night Brewing! We tied one off and celebrated our team effort and a great start to the year!
June also saw a huge interest in the retail community. Companies like Orange Theory Fitness, Versace, America’s Mart and InMotion hire Amp’d DJs to Remix the music experience in store. In the case of Orange Theory Fitness, we upped the beats per minute to get their members in the Orange Zone!
August
2015 would also be the year we hosted our very first Showcase! It was held on August 27th at one of preferred partner venues, the Glenn Hotel, Sky Lounge! Several couples, interested prospects and industry friends came out as we showcased our DJ’s Remix Sets along with our unique and fun entertainment options!
We were also fortunate to partner with David Goehring of RadWagon. He was able to capture some amazing footage of our showcase, as well as our promo videos and we have already had the pleasure of teaming up on some incredible weddings together!
September
2015 would also be monumental as our very own, DJ Bigg H, would have his mashup, featured on
Mash-Up Your Bootz Party Sampler Vol. 100 “The Future”
The Moonlite Booth was our latest addition to our photo booths! Guests can enjoy the open concept photo booth with a host, memory book, and a ton of fun props with this timeless and sleek booth that is sure to be the perfect fit for their rustic chic wedding!
October
October was our biggest month to date with 45 private events! We saw a huge increase in our corporate events during the week and we boasted sold out Saturdays all month long! Incredible Video captured some amazing Fall Weddings we had the pleasure of attending!
Amp’d had the honor of being featured on the Offbeat Bride! Check out their blog article below.
