One husband-and-wife team taking care of your music, your microphones, your announcements and your timeline — so your wedding sounds right and runs smoothly from ceremony to last dance.
Serving Evansville, Newburgh and Southern Indiana, and gladly crossing the river into Western Kentucky.
Highbanks Wedding & Events — Petersburg, Indiana
The reception is where most of your wedding day happens — dinner, toasts, introductions, special dances and a dance floor that has to work for grandparents and college roommates alike. We build the music around you and your guests: the songs you love, the requests worth taking, and the do-not-play list that stays off.
Eddie runs the music and the sound, reading the room and keeping the dance floor moving. Arlene works the microphone and the timeline — introductions, announcements and special dances, coordinated quietly with your venue, photographer and family so every moment starts on time.
Your ceremony is short, unrepeatable and completely dependent on sound. If your guests can’t hear the vows, they’ve missed the wedding. That’s why we treat ceremony audio as its own service with its own dedicated setup — not a speaker borrowed from the reception.
Friedman Park — Newburgh, Indiana
Every Our First Dance wedding starts with planning you do directly with Eddie and Arlene — by phone, video call, or in person at your venue. Long before the wedding day, we’ve already walked through it together:
The people you plan with are the people who show up — it’s the promise behind everything on this page.
Sound is the part of a wedding nobody notices when it’s right — and everybody remembers when it’s wrong. Eddie has spent his working life behind microphones and speakers, and it shows in the details your guests actually experience:
No equipment lecture, no spec sheet — just sound that works, checked and ready before your guests arrive.
A playlist doesn’t run a wedding day. Here’s what Eddie and Arlene are actually taking care of as yours unfolds:
Timeline, music and details settled with Eddie and Arlene before the day arrives.
We arrive early, set up ceremony and reception sound, and check everything before guests do.
Music cued on time, microphones live, every word heard.
Grand entrances, welcomes and formalities — announced clearly and on schedule.
Music at talking volume, microphones ready for every toast.
First dances into open dancing — a floor that builds all night.
A wedding day rarely sticks to the script. Dinner runs long, the photographer needs five more minutes, a surprise toast appears. When one person is managing the music, someone still needs to answer the venue’s question, adjust the timeline and quietly pass the word.
That’s the advantage of hiring a team. Eddie stays on the music and sound while Arlene handles announcements, timing and communication — so nothing waits and nothing gets missed. It’s how they’ve worked weddings together for years, through Our First Dance and their established wedding DJ service, Crunk DJ.
Every photo on this page is from a real wedding Eddie and Arlene personally worked — never stock photography.
No confusing packages. No hidden surprises. Just professional entertainment built around the coverage you need.
Overtime: Available at $100 per hour when arranged in advance or approved on the event day.
