A Fusion Wedding

 At Fusion Function, we will engage both families, highlight wedding traditions you share, and expertly tailor music selections for the reception to keep your entire crowd dancing all evening.

We are well versed in delivering an exceptional wedding reception tailored to each couple’s needs. When you book with Fusion Function, our team always goes the extra mile through multiple consultations, timeline planning, formality organization, and song set list creation. Above all, YOU, the client, remains our priority throughout the event. 

What is a Fusion Wedding?

It’s any wedding that aims to celebrate, honor and include a couple’s traditions, culture and/or specific formalities. Your family is unique and we want to celebrate YOU and your partner! 

Couples who choose the team at Fusion Function have….

  • A mix of ages in attendance – from children to great-grandparents, we are able to play something for everyone to feel included!
  • A wide variety of music knowledge for the party – we know how to keep the crowd entertained and welcome all musical genres.
  • Specific requests for formalities – we always go the extra mile to ensure your announcements and introductions run smoothly, the way you envision.
  • A mixed religion ceremony and reception – fusing both sides’ religious traditions is something we understand and enjoy!
  • A need for bi-lingual emcees – we know how to ensure that your families feel included, and that all announcements are understood in both languages throughout the wedding.

Ultimately, bringing together multicultural families is what we truly do best because we speak from experience. A note from the founder of Fusion Function, Sidney McCree: “I am Salvadorian and Black, and my wife is Italian. When we were planning our wedding it was natural for us to want to include both sides of our families. We love bachata, salsa, merengue and afrobeats just as much as 90’s Boy Bands, classic rock, and current hip-hop. Fusion Function entertainment was created to fill the gap in today’s wedding entertainment industry. Moreover, my wife and I believe that love is love, and your wedding should celebrate every aspect of your lives that you want to honor and celebrate!”

So what’s your fusion?

Hear what our couples have said!

Dont’t take our word for it – here’s what our past couples say:

We highly recommend working with DJ El Sid Entertainment!

The team was extremely professional and responsive. Their portal makes communication and planning ahead of the wedding very easy. We had two meetings prior to the big day to talk through the details and we found these very valuable so that our DJ and MC could get to know us as a couple and what we were looking for. We had the pleasure of working with DJ Montro (Julio) who delivered exactly what we were looking for in our multicultural wedding. My hispanic family was so happy to feel included in the bilingual MC announcements and with the great mix of music in both languages. Our guests had a wonderful time and I rarely left the dance floor all night! Thank you DJ Montro and team for a memorable night!

Best Wedding Team

If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding or any event, look no further than DJ El SidEntertainment. From our initial consultation, they were very caring, professional, and accommodating. We immediately knew they were the right fit for our big day. Working with the team was seamless and took the time to get to know the bride and groom. DJ Stix and MC Excel were fantastic and kept the dance floor busy for the entire night and interacted with the guests. We did not want the night to end. They truly made the night unforgettable, and cannot emphasize how polite, nice and a lot of fun they were. If you want your dance floor to be packed all night, it’s highly suggested to have DJ El SidEntertainment for your event with the unforgettable DJ Stix and MC Excel. You will not be disappointed to have this team be a part of your day or any fun event.

Can’t recommend enough!

DJ El Sid is THE BEST.
I am a June 2023 bride. My husband and I hosted a fusion wedding, I am American and my husband is first generation Salvadoran. We knew the music had to hit at our wedding, but it felt like a lot of pressure to please both sides. When we found Sid, it felt like a weight was taken off our shoulders!

From our initial meeting, to pre-wedding communication, to the actual wedding day, working with Sid was amazing. He understood our situation exactly, and had a portfolio full of amazing weddings that were similar, if not the same, to ours.

Our dance floor was PACKED all night long, and it was all attributed to the great job Siddid reading the crowd, providing all types of music, and keeping the party going.

I cannot recommend or thank him enough for giving us the party of our dreams! 100000/10 recommend.

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Joel dj’d our wedding on 9/23/23 and we cannot say enough good things about him! The music was absolutely awesome and we have received tons of compliments. We were looking for a good mix of music to satisfy our guests and Joel did not disappoint. He played American and Latin music throughout the whole night, such a good variety of both. He checked in with us before the reception and throughout the night to make sure we were happy.

Communication prior to the wedding was great and their planning portal was very user friendly!

We will definitely be referring this company to friends and family who are looking for entertainment for an event.

What an amazing night!

We worked with DJ El Sid and Medio Pollo for our wedding September. The energy and professionalism they brought exceeded all expectations. They had everyone out of their seat and on the dance floor. We were worried we wouldn’t find a DJ that would be able to mix both of our cultures together. DJ el Sid and Medio pollo really outdid themselves. Our guests continue to message us and tell us what a fun night it was… we keep saying that it was due to the personable, fun and entertaining DJs we got the pleasure of working with.

Fusion DJ goals! Highly recommend DJ El Sid!

Sid and his team were incredible to work with for our wedding in June. Having a fusion of music that represented our American and Peruvian cultures was so important for us and they made our day so special. No one wanted the party to end, and the dance floor was packed all night. Sid was incredibly helpful and encouraging throughout the planning process and was one of the first vendors we hired for our wedding. We are so grateful we picked him for our wedding reception and appreciate that he was willing to travel to Maine for our big day. He selected the perfect mix of our favorite songs and made our dreams come true. Muchas gracias DJ El Sid Entertainment!

Dj El Sid is a MUST HAVE for your event!

Where to even begin. If you are unsure whether to hire DJ El Sid, don’t think, just go for it! He is one of the most professional and organized vendors I’ve worked with. He took the time to meet with us to go over our day and to make sure everything was the way we wanted it. We felt so comfortable going into the day knowing that he would make our day run smoothly and be a blast! As for the music, WOW, DJ Sid knows how to read a room. He knew exactly what songs to play at the right times to keep everyone on the dance floor. I took a look around our venue and there was not a single person sitting at the tables, he had everyone dancing the whole night. From start to finish, we could have not asked for a better DJ for our wedding. We were thrilled to have him and our guests raved about him. Thank you for everything!

Amazing Experience

From my very first inquiry sent to DJ El Sid Entertainment, they were incredibly responsive, professional, and friendly. Sid got back to us immediately with package offerings and once we booked them, he set up a Zoom with him, our event DJ, Sam Milli, and us to go over all of the details. They have a very organized portal where you can choose song requests, layout any details for the ceremony, etc which was very helpful. For the day of the event, Sam (DJ Milli) was just perfect. He checked in with us but never bugged us, his playlist was perfect, his equipment and everything for our outdoor ceremony worked flawlessly, and he was even super friendly and polite to some of our more inebriated guests that were very excited to discuss the playlist with him. We could not have asked for a better DJ for our wedding.

Reception was Amazing!

DJ El Sid was a professional at every stage of our wedding planning; we definitely recommend using his services! At the beginning of our planning process he offered guidance and suggestions, but did not make us feel pressured to do things in any particular way, focusing on achieving our unique vision. His online portal made it super clear and easy to build our playlists. He was always prompt and on-time with his responsibilities, was able to answer all of our questions, and put us at ease with his friendly and easygoing personality. A week before our wedding our reception venue was damaged by a car crashing into it, so we needed to have our reception in an outdoor tent… despite the logistical challenge Sid made the needed adjustments and had all of his equipment set up outdoors and working on schedule. He MC’ed the event with a fun and friendly charisma, and we received many positive comments about the music during our reception, which Sid had blended perfectly to keep everyone on the dance floor all night. We cannot recommend him highly enough!

Just World Class

If you are looking for a wedding DJ just stop your search and book DJ El Sid!

Our special day was perfect in every way and DJ El Sid was a key part of that. We got endless comments about how incredible the music and DJ was. His ability to connect with people and read the vibe is second to none.

He takes the time to set up zoom calls to get you prepared for everything you will need for your big day. He has his own website to gather your information and song choices, as well as organizes every part of the day of events.

We had an Indian fusion wedding and DJ El Sid was with us from the baraat to the ceremony, and the music was on point the entire time.

Thank you DJ El Sid for everything! I hope I get a copy of our picture together, because you were that important to how special our wedding day truly was!
