We would highly recommend K&K Entertainment to anyone needing a DJ Service! They are so much more than that. Kevin & Kimburlee worked very hard to make our wedding day all we wanted and it was and then some. Kevin worked very hard on the music list and the itinerary for the day in the months leading up to the wedding. And Kimburlee helped to finalize everything the week before. Both are super nice, very personable and easy to work with. We tweeked a few things on the itinerary list they provided and they were very receptive and flexible to listen to what we wanted. The day of, they nailed it! They brought a helper that day too and she helped to make a short video clip of the day. That was not expected but so appreciated. Could not have asked for better DJ and MC & "crew" for our special day. They will go above and beyond to make sure they personalize your day the way you want it and they will deliver in a very professional and friendly manner. We felt like they were part of our party that day as friends and not just DJ's we hired for our wedding. Highly recommend, K&K Rocks!!!!

Justin was lovely to work with from the start. He was booked for another wedding, but he paired us up with Rob, an associate DJ of his. Both Rob and Justin were so so fun to work with. Rob took the time to text or set up whatever zoom calls we felt we needed. For the actual day, Rob was amazing. We had dinner service, reception, and "after party". Robs killed it with his flow between songs, and was incredibly accommodating and flexible if we had any requests in the moment, and was able to dodge or handle any "questionable" song requests that came his way. We knew that he always put my husband and I's wishes first. We also had multiple people comment on how good the DJ was during the reception, and after the fact! He also went above and beyond to pull heroics the day of to get some of our DIY spot lighting set up that wasn't set up the night prior. Rob was incredible to work with, and just as fun to chat with. Will miss working with them, but absolutely will be following their journeys and would use them again in a heartbeat! So thankful for Justin and Rob!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lucas was recommended to us as "the DJ you want to hire if you want someone you can trust to keep your dance floor full and to read the crowd to keep your party going," which immediately appealed to us. We live in Brooklyn, and got married in the Catskills, and found out that Lucas also DJs regularly at some of our favorite spots in Brooklyn. From our first contact with Lucas, he was responsive, kind, interested in getting to know us and our taste, and super professional. We connected on a personal level as well as on a musical one. Now, having had Lucas DJ our wedding and supply all of the audio equipment, we can't recommend him highly enough. The audio for our ceremony and speeches worked without a hitch (he also helped to professionally feed our ceremony audio/music into our livestream setup), Lucas knew exactly the right moments to take cues for music, and when the dance party began, he played great music that totally matched our vibe and tastes, and as promised, he kept the dance floor full all night (no small feat, especially because we downsized our wedding to 60 guests). In addition to being an excellent DJ, he's also a great guy to be around, and on your wedding day, it's really nice to feel like you are surrounded by people you want to spend time with. Multiple people came up to us to ask about Lucas during and after our wedding, because he was that exceptional. Hire him and you will be so glad you did! Couldn't ask for more in a DJ.

SDR Weddings & Events was a LIFESAVER for my wedding day!! I had a backyard wedding and I was worried that my guests would still have an amazing time. Hiring them was the best decision I made because not only was the dance floor (our deck, lol) full of all my guests having an amazing time, but the photos are AWESOME and all of my guests raved about how much fun they had. People literally said it was the best wedding they ever went to. I couldn't be happier. They were so amazing in the process of planning too, giving me advice on the best times to do certain formalities at the reception. Being a wedding photographer myself, I see a lot of DJs, but no one compares to these guys in my opinion. I recommend them to all of my clients. I can't wait to have a vow renewal so I have the opportunity to hire them again!!

Big Ric and his band made our son’s wedding an awesome and memorable celebration. In addition to having very talented musicians and vocalists, they played the perfect tunes to keep everyone on the dance floor. They were outstanding from start to finish. Big Ric, the bandleader, displayed tremendous enthusiasm and command of the flow of the party. He had a real big personality and knows how to get everyone involved and up having fun. They are a big sound band with a strong horns section and excellent women vocalists. All I heard all night was how great the wedding was and that Big Ric’s band was the best they have heard. My advice is to keep doing what you do…. I highly recommend Big Ric Rising, especially if you want your guests to have an awesome time at your wedding!

In today's world everything is extremely overpriced and service is terrible. My wedding was very stressful for me because of this. I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I used Showcase Sound for DJ, photo booth and the Led dance floor for my son's Bar Mitzvah. I already knew they were great but WOW! They kept the dance floor packed from the beginning to the very end. I had guests commenting all night (and after) how amazing they were. They kept the kids entertained and EVERYONE danced all night long. They responded quickly whenever I had a question. We had the most amazing evening. I cannot recommend Showcase enough.

Black Tie Entertainment

  • Serves Cortland, NY

We are a full production DJ company with extensive sound, light, and video options. Since 1993 our belief has been that each song needs to be the absolute best choice for that particular moment in your party – nothing inappropriate or overly cliché and no filler!

My number one wish for my wedding day was to enjoy the music and dance the night away. And the day of, I actually never left the dance floor! I knew from the moment I first met with Black Tie Entertainment that I was going to be happy with the service, and they delivered! Everyone at the wedding also got up to dance at some point and joined in the fun! This is huge for me because I have gone to other weddings in the past where I have barely danced at all due to lack of variety or lack of fun music. Black Tie is the way to go! And I will definitely reach out to Black Tie for any future major events!

  • Serves Cortland, NY

My name is Adam, owner & operator of CNY Sound. I am proud to serve those in Central New York with all of their DJ, MC and event planning needs. A wedding DJ by trade, I also bring my services to any event from parties, corporate events and more.

We hired Adam to DJ at our wedding. His price quote was the best we received and I was impressed with his attention to detail, professionalism, and warmth right from the start. We had a small wedding (about 50 people) and the crowd was older, mostly in their 40s and up. Adam is young, but he really knows his music! He spent lots of time meeting with us to understand what kind of music we wanted and he was able to throw out suggestions that we hadn't even thought of. He provided the music for our ceremony as well as the reception and everything flowed beautifully. He was able to read the crowd well and many of us were on the dance floor from start to finish. All of our guests commented on the great job that he did. We highly recommend his services and would use him in the future if we ever needed a DJ for an event again!

The Grand Central Station Band

  • Serves Cortland, NY

We LOVE to make people dance !!!!!! Our music library is enormous, if you can dance to it, we probably play it. Great party music that will have EVERYONE on the dance floor. We play all styles of music and sound amazing. Our goal is to make your event AMAZING

Being that we booked our wedding 18 months in advance we had the luxury of listening to just about every band in the Albany area. What we loved about Grand Central Station was, consistency ( same band members all the time), professionalism, cost, and references. We spoke to couples who had them at their wedding and the general consensus was they exceed their expectations. Hands down the best band in the area. If you are looking for a fun time with a band that can play ALL styles of music, you need to hire Grand Central Station

Our past clients include The United Nations, Lockheed Martin, Nationwide Auto Insurance, The Shell Oil Corporation, and many more. No event is too small or large for us. Louis Pettinelli Entertainment has musical ensembles that range from a soloist to a 15 piece party band, and everything in between!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. 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. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.
