What if the soundtrack to your wedding didn’t just set the mood—but revealed it? I’ve always believed the right DJ translates love into motion. Today’s episode proves it.I’ve worked with Eric Larson for years, and every time I see his name on a timeline, I exhale. He’s the owner of Euphoric Entertainment, and he carries a tagline that instantly clicks for me: “Music is what feelings sound like.”Eric’s story winds from machinist to radio host to one of the most trusted single-operator DJs in our region. When couples book him, they get him—the voice on the call, the brain behind the plan, the person on the mic, and the calm in the room. That level of continuity changes everything on a wedding day.Key Themes + TakeawaysOne-to-one all the way: Direct consults with the actual DJ, plus an online planner with must-plays and do-not-plays so nothing gets lost in translation.No dead air, ever: Eric is set before the first guest arrives—music on, mood set.Built for anywhere: Battery-powered ceremony system and cordless mic mean lake, beach, grove—no generators, no 100-ft cords.Photo booth included: A fully digital booth from prep to last song (no upcharge, gallery zip sent afterward).MC with restraint: The night isn’t about the DJ—it’s about the couple and their people. Announce when needed, then let the room breathe.Flexibility wins: From moving a dance outside in ten minutes to syncing timelines with photo/video, he plays the whole field.Trends to watch: More alternative picks, smarter requests, and yes—“Mr. Brightside” remains a late-night lock.Our Favorite Quotes“Music is what feelings sound like.”“If you booked me, you get me—start to finish.”“I’ll be set before your first guest walks in. No dead air.”“The wedding isn’t about me on the mic; it’s about your people.”“If grandma is tapping her foot, I know we’re doing it right.”Chapter Markers00:00 The tagline that says it all04:41 From radio to running Euphoric: why going solo matters08:57 What to look for in a DJ (and how to protect the vibe)12:04 Photo booth… included?!
