Savannah wedding DJ — Anchor Entertainment
Savannah's wedding scene is one of the most photogenic in the Southeast — squares draped in Spanish moss, river-walk rehearsal dinners, brick-and-ironwork venues that have been hosting celebrations for two hundred years. Anchor Entertainment has DJed and emceed weddings across Chatham County for more than fifteen years, and Gary Lucca (DJ Tanz) still books every Savannah date personally.
Gary handles ceremony audio, cocktail hour playlisting, reception DJ and MC work, and the cues that make a reception actually flow — the first dance, the parent dances, the toasts, the cake cutting, the grand exit. Measured MC work is the difference between announcements that land and announcements that disappear into noise; that's the part Savannah couples ask for most often, and the part Gary has optimized for the longest.
Anchor Entertainment's Savannah coverage includes downtown Savannah, Tybee Island, Skidaway Island, Wilmington Island, Pooler, and the surrounding Chatham County venues. Gary aligns music cues with the couple's planner, photographer, and venue coordinator so the timeline and room energy stay connected from ceremony to sendoff.

“Gary…made us feel like this was as special of a day for him as it was for us.”
Steve & Amanda · Red Gate Farms Savannah wedding · Undated
“We had DJ Gary Lucca at our wedding and I am still in awe 10 days later at how amazing he was. He was so attentive throughout the whole planning process, listened to our needs, catered to our music tastes, and made sure to include specific requests. There were small touches throughout that made it feel like he truly cared about us individually and making sure we had the best time possible. And we definitely did!! My whole family still won’t stop talking about how amazing our DJ was. I truly believe Gary is the reason our wedding was a perfect night and we have no regrets at all. He’s phenomenal!!!”

“We had the absolute best experience with Gary! From the start, he was super communicative, organized, and made the whole planning process so easy. He really took the time to understand what we wanted and made sure every detail was covered. The night of our wedding, he completely nailed it. The music was perfect, everything flowed, and the energy was amazing! He knew exactly how to read the crowd and kept everyone having fun. You could tell Gary truly enjoys what he does, and his thoughtfulness is something we won't forget! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ to make our night unforgettable.”

FAQ
Savannah DJ FAQs
Does Anchor Entertainment cover both the ceremony and the reception in Savannah?
Yes. Gary handles ceremony audio, cocktail hour playlist, and the full reception DJ and MC program, including parent dances, toasts, and the grand exit. One point of contact from first call to final song.
How far in advance should we book a Savannah wedding DJ?
Peak Savannah wedding dates (late spring, fall) book 9-14 months out. Off-peak dates are sometimes bookable 4-6 months out. Send Gary the date and venue first — he replies personally and confirms availability before anything else.
How do you coordinate with our Savannah planner and venue coordinator?
Gary can build the run-of-show with your planner and confirm cue timing with the venue coordinator at the rehearsal. The timeline is reviewed line-by-line in the week-of call so the first dance, toasts, and cake cutting all hit on cue.
Can we get a preview of the music plan before the wedding?
Yes. You send a must-play list, a do-not-play list, and an optional guest request form. Gary reviews everything, flags any crowd-control questions, and locks the reception framework in writing before the day.
