Jordan from Whirlin Disc Sound is hands down the best DJ you could ever hope to have at your wedding.

Guests kept coming up to us raving about how they didn’t want to leave the dance floor because every single song was a hit—someone even joked they wished he’d play a bad song just so they could catch their breath! On top of that, Jordan was an amazing planner—he kept the evening running smoothly, made sure we stayed on schedule, and worked seamlessly with our other vendors. He was a joy to work with throughout the planning process, and his positive, fun energy was infectious on the day of the wedding.

I truly enjoy the 'nothing into something' process that happens when I see weeks and months of planning and work , creating a beautiful environment, that reflects the mood and personality of my clients. I love playing music for people, watching them be entertained, from 9 to 89.

We chose Steve to DJ our wedding, and he did an absolutely fantastic job. His communication was top notch, and he kept us in the loop about everything. We had a nice sit down about a month before to discuss specifics, and he sent everything via email for us to look at. His skills were amazing and kept everybody on the dance floor all night. He was very flexible about time and he agreed to stay an extra half hour for a very reasonable cost. His prices were much more fair than a lot of the big companies around here. Would recommend Steve to anyone who needs a DJ for their event.

His Passion 4 DJ’n Transitioned 2 A Different Clientele, Although His Love 4 Entertaining Has Always Remain The Same!

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
From the very beginning, Karl was such a pleasure to work with. Finding a great band for our wedding was our top priority. We were a little apprehensive about pulling the trigger on any band without seeing them live, since videos don’t necessarily do the band justice. We made the decision to go with PopStyle almost entirely because Karl was so responsive and a great communicator. 6 months later, when it came time to iron out details, Karl was consistently professional and put us at ease. Knowing we could trust him to handle everything on his end was invaluable. Obviously we were a bit preoccupied on the day of our wedding, but from what we could tell everything was so smooth. They took care of setting up for our ceremony with a variety of mics and speakers for our officiant, readers, and processional/recessional music. They seamlessly transitioned to the cocktail hour (different location), then introduced our first dance plus family dances, and kicked off the dancing with so much enthusiasm. We absolutely adored their performance. They got everyone out on the dance floor! There were also times when a few of them came out onto the dance floor to really engage the crowd. It was awesome and unexpected. Each band member that I personally interacted with could not have been nicer. They all seemed so genuinely happy to be there celebrating with us. It didn’t feel like a client/vendor dynamic. Additionally, every other vendor we spoke with told us what a pleasure it was to work with PopStyle. Overall, we would 100% book PopStyle again for any event. If you are considering them at all, I would look no further. They exceeded our expectations in every category

Ron played our wedding this weekend and he was fantastic! He has played for us before and never misses a beat. He played acoustic at our ceremony, then dinner, and ended with dance. A ton of work and moving around to pull this off. His playing of Tennessee Whiskey was one of the best I have heard. Can’t wait to have him at our next event. Thanks Ron!!

We absolutely loved working with The Hook Club. Our amazing planner, Greenhouse Events, recommended THC, and we were sold immediately after meeting with Dan. He is super relaxed, nice, and so knowledgable. Dan and THC team made planning super easy for us. They took time to hear about our hopes and helped recommend different band sizes for us. We hadn’t heard of a DJ band before, but loved the idea of some live music with the versatility to play all sorts of music, but our venue wasn’t very big and we also didn’t want to break the bank and hire a huge band. We chose the 4 piece DJ band with singer, sax, drums, and DJ. We knew we LOVED the sax, so we also had the sax play for cocktail hour (shout out to Elijah, who was amazing), and it was one of the best parts of the night. For planning music, they sent out a very detailed and thorough spreadsheet with more songs than one could imagine, and we could rate ones we liked the most, choose ones we definitely wanted or didn't, and choose specific songs for important moments. We met a couple times to review music choices as well. One of our biggest fears with a DJ was that they'd talk too much and be a little annoying, but Dan did a great job as MC, and was very low-key like we asked but announced important moments clearly. Dan and all the musicians had such great energy and got everyone on the dance floor. Our vocalist, Christen, was also amazing — her voice was spectacular, and she was such an amazing performer and got everyone involved in the music and dancing. So many people told us how much they loved the music and the energy, and had never heard of a DJ band but thought it was an amazing concept and the addition of live music over tracks added extra excitement and fun. THC also helped out with lighting (uplights and dance lights), and worked with our fantastic planner and the venue to help us decide the best setup. Ultimately, we loved working with THC. Their DJ-band setup is unique and adds so much variety to your music while allowing for some of the energy that comes from live performers. We danced the night away and had an absolute blast. 100% would recommend THC to anyone!

They say a dream is a wish your heart makes, and Erica was truly a dream to have at my wedding, not only as a musician, but as a warm and kind presence. The very first time I spoke with Erica I just fell in love with her warmth, kindness, professionalism and confidence. We laughed so much on the first call I knew immediately I had to hire her. After the call, my fiancé said that musician you spoke with made you so happy you better just hurry up and hire her. I never even spoke to another musician…I knew none could even come close to Erica. I hired Erica in July for my December Disney wedding. I never felt rushed, overwhelmed or anything stressful. Erica is so kind, her voice is ethereal and she knows how to read a room. She even recommended an amazing officiant to me when I was struggling to find one. Erica was the hit of my wedding, when she started singing to open the ceremony a bird flew up to her, perched next to her and sang with her. Even the bird wanted to be close to her and felt her kindness. This was the most beautiful moment and my guests are still talking about it. I wanted a Disney/Christmas wedding theme and Erica delivered in every aspect. She was also beautifully dressed and looked gorgeous (nobody wants sloppy vendors lol). Erica created the perfect atmosphere by intertwining romantic Disney music as well as Christmas songs. Erica made the wedding a dream come true. The fact that she is well known also helps, as most vendors and venues love working with her. She learned a few new songs for me and worked seamlessly with my other vendors to create the perfect, yes absolutely perfect, day. Thank you Erica! You are a true star!

Justin is THE BEST wedding DJ ever. Because he is not really a wedding DJ - he’s a REAL DJ who is also GREAT at MCing. Our party was off the hook because Justin was able to blend together our extremely eclectic music taste in a way that kept everyone on the dance floor. We could not have been more thrilled with his work. He is also an incredibly sweet person and truly wants to get to know you as a couple in order to tailor everything to your personality and vibe. Justin, we cannot thank you enough for what was the BEST WEDDING EVER! We will forever relive the Black Parade song along!

Kenny Fiesta 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,500
  • Serves Amherst, NY for additional fees

My goal for your event is straightforward: to create a musical atmosphere your guests will enjoy, in a tasteful way to conserve your excellent reputation. I look to do this by curating my family-friendly music library with all genres, removing instances or entire songs with profanity, vulgar descriptions, and offensive lyrics. I want you and your guests to feel comfortable for the entirety of the event, starting with the mood music that represents your style, whether you've chosen every song or have a few key picks you want me to build a playlist around.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had the absolute pleasure of having Kenny Fiesta as our DJ for our wedding in 2022, and he exceeded all of our expectations. Not only did he keep our dance floor packed all night, but his skills as an MC truly elevated the energy of the entire event. This weekend we attended another wedding where he worked his magic, and once again, he was off the charts! His incredible uplighting transformed the space into something spectacular, and he had everyone—young and old—on their feet, dancing nonstop. His ability to read the crowd and keep the vibe alive is unmatched. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, talented, and knows how to throw an unforgettable party, Kenny Fiesta is your guy. He’s not just a DJ—he’s the life of the party! Highly recommend!
