Primo was our DJ at Rosebud Wedding Estates and he was outstanding for every minute from booking, to the planning process, and the day off. His assistants he brought along were extremely professional and helped out to make sure the transition from ceremony to reception went smoothly. And it sure did!! Primo’s dance floor lighting package and uplighting we added on transformed the venue and made it look astonishing. The moving head lights were an awesome touch for introductions and first dance etc. Guests did not stop coming up to us the whole night, talking about what a great DJ we chose and how awesome the music was. Primo essentially planned our whole wedding in terms of how the order of events went and provided all the additional vendors with a schedule of events. All of our calves hurt like crazy after dancing the night away!! Primo had our guests on the dance floor all night and he had to literally ask people to leave so we could do our last dance alone and then the sparkler exit. I cannot recommend Primo enough and will be sure to use him for any future events that we have. Primo is a true professional for his age and you would never guess he is still in college!!! Amazzing!!!

The team at Whirlin Disc provided incredible support throughout the planning process. We met with their team early on and talked through our vision. They got a sense of who we were and the vibe that we wanted to create. They assigned a DJ who matched us perfectly. DJ Jade worked with us leading up to the wedding and absolutely crushed it the day of. She got the party started and kept it going throughout the night. The dance floor was packed from the time it opened until the venue closed. Her ability to read the crowd and adjust the music accordingly was great! In general Whirlin Disc was easy to work with. The app they use to organize playlists made it super easy for us to connect to our spotify playlists and identify important songs. DJ Jade walked through the full itinerary for the day and made sure she knew what the vibe of each element was and what songs we needed to hear.

He proceeded to communicate with me efficiently and promptly when needed and was supportive of ALL of our decisions re: music, dances etc. We had DJ Paul and he did NOT disappoint. He kept the party upbeat, played all our favorite songs as asked, took a few fun requests and helped organize group photos when needed. He stayed late cleaning up, was polite, fun and overall a pleasure to work with. There was a fun and easy worksheet to fill out and we had one meeting with Paul beforehand. Most communication was thru text. Would highly recommend Buffaluv as a local DJ for your event!! Great people.

Saxman Slim 

5.0

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Allentown, NY

Half of the event occurs before anyone steps on the dance floor. Live sax music sets that special atmosphere for life's most important party. When it’s time to dance, Saxman Slim provides experienced DJ services. All wedding DJs know what works. The trick is to imagine how the next song will feel in the room before it’s played. Musicians make excellent DJs because their training enables them to accurately hear a song in their head, so they can choose the right transition to inspire renewed dancing excitement. And instead of annoying talk stating the obvious, Saxman Slim prefers to let the mix speak for itself, commercial-free.

Matt has been great to work with, he's very responsive and happy to cater to all of our music requests. He played the saxophone during the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and then switched to DJing for the rest of the night. Matt was very personable and professional while emceeing. His price was comparable to other DJs, but you can't beat having a live musician! 10/10 recommend!

We booked HiMotive Entertainment DJs for our wedding this past September! DJ Nel was absolutely incredible. My wife and I had, quite literally, the best dance party of our lives. The dance floor was COMPLETELY PACKED the entire night, and it was so much fun. DJ Nel knew exactly what to play to get people out dancing and keep them on the floor. When the party was finally over, one of our guests actually yelled out loud, "But I don't want to go home yet!" I cannot recommend HiMotive Entertainment & Their DJ enough! They're the best of the best.

In the months leading up to our big day, we were consistently taken by how professional, responsive, and reasonably priced they were. Then, on our wedding day, they kept the dancefloor packed with their impressive performance and relentless energy (they even managed to get some of our shyest guests dancing!). After the wedding, our guests raved about how impressive the band was, and we couldn't agree more. We hope others have the same outstanding experience!

Awarded Best of Zola
Brian is one of the best wedding DJs in the business. In the past two years I’ve been to eight different weddings. Brian was the DJ for three of the eight, and the party/reception component of the events was never more fun than when Brian was driving the bus. He is an east coast DJ, but he spun tracks at both of my sister-in-laws’ weddings and as we were searching for a DJ for our own wedding we reached out just to see what he would charge for a wedding in Chicago. Turns out the price was right. Brian traveled to Chicago, MC’d our entire wedding, brought all of the equipment necessary and made our day exceptional in every way. I think there are a few things that really set Brian apart from other wedding DJs. Anyone can stand there and run through a playlist, but Brian went off book a few times to match and capture the energy of the guests. As we were in the midst of the planning process he added zero stress, and just calmly walked us through the process of selecting songs. He had suggestions and recommendations along the way. He even brought an extra speaker so that we could plug our digital piano in and the pianist would be able to play loudly enough. Overall, we can’t recommend Brian highly enough. You will not regret choosing him to DJ at your wedding, party, event. Whatever it is, Brian is a huge value add and a pleasure to work with.

Nathan was an absolute delight to work with, whether it was coming out for a site visit or having a last-minute call to go over first-dance options, and getting his professional opinion. He is quick to respond, and during the event he perfectly judged the vibe while also taking into account all of our requests. We had several guests compliment him and the playlist as well.

The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire.
