Ryan Gavin is the Mainah!
Owner, Event Producer & Wedding DJ
On the radio and at events across New England, Ryan has been providing top-rated entertainment services for years. You might recognize his voice too – Ryan can be heard on radio stations and streaming music apps all over the US every day, and he’s been a featured personality on some of New England’s biggest radio stations, like WJBQ Q97.9, 103.7 The Peak, Q96.1, and X1023.FM. Ryan hosts a Top 40 morning show on the Gulf Coast (from his studio in Maine!), a night show on Cape Cod, and he’s also worked with brands like 94.9 WHOM and 97.5 WOKQ. Off the air, Ryan has used his 15+ years of broadcast and event experience to help hundreds of couples plan amazing weddings and unforgettable celebrations.

As the owner of Maine Vibe, Ryan leads our professional team of DJs and works with all of our couples during the planning process to produce perfect ceremonies and receptions. Once each wedding is planned to perfection, our team of day-of wedding DJs steps in and delivers the magic of a fantastic party on wedding day.
