I've never worked with a DJ as good as Drew and his crew. Drew had sent me an email a few weeks before the couples wedding with the reception timeline (a first) and kept me up-to-date with any last minute changes the day of. It is clear by working with Drew how much he loves his job and how much he cares about the couples he works with. He got the crowd going, the dance floor was always packed and he invited the couple up to DJ booth which was so fun for them and also amazing for pictures. If you are looking for a DJ who cares, gets the dance floor going and is easy to work with, BEG Event Group is it. I will be recommending them to all my clients!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you get overwhelmed by the seemingly endless decisions that surround a wedding, make the easiest and best one you can by working with Greg at C-Zone. We knew during our first prep call that he was our DJ. He wanted to know our taste in music, what was the vibe we were going for, and with a few questions he got to work compiling a killer set list for us that BURNED THE DANCE FLOOR DOWN. He and his trio (where he also played sax) flexed from our cocktail hours to first dances to dance party with ease. He even took the time to learn a song we wanted played during our processional live. He got the best reviews from our guests across the board. His ability to read the crowd and react while never missing a beat made for an insane event. If you want someone who will work with you but also do the work – we can’t recommend him highly enough.

For my (now) wife and I, finding the right person to set the mood for our ceremony and reception was one of the biggest priorities while wedding planning. Bill had been the DJ at my cousin's wedding, and seeing how well he kept the party going in person really helped sell us on reaching out to him. He is one of the sweetest people, and communicates every detail with the couple every step of the way.

Awarded Best of Zola
We recently hired Press Play Entertainment for a Bnei Mitzvah celebration. Keith and his team were a delight to work with. Keith was very communicative and cooperative in the planning stages and fleshed out a great program for the event. There wasn't a single point during our planning conversations where I felt he was "pushing" services; in fact I felt that he really listened to what I wanted and even discouraged me from purchasing extra services when I inquired about them, which I really appreciated. At the event itself, he and his team were energetic and upbeat and managed to get even the most reluctant guests to participate in the fun and really enjoy themselves. Just like with many events of this kind, we encountered a few small challenges (larger crowd than was expected for the space rented, a few "non-compliant" teens) that Keith and team handled seamlessly and flawlessly. Most importantly, everyone had a great time! Many of the adult guests came up to me after the party to express how impressed they were by Keith and team and said they had never seen another entertainer be so effective and engaging at a party. I agree with them 100% and would honestly never consider hiring anyone else for any future events.

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
We worked with Matt and he truly did an absolutely amazing job! He was always communicative leading up to the event, responds promptly to texts/emails and is very personable throughout the entire process. We wanted a DJ who let their work speak for themselves without all the extra “corniness” thrown in and he delivered. He was prompt, professional, and friendly during our special day. He plays the music you want and will cater to your picture of how the night should go. As I said before, he lets his work speak for himself- he had our guests up and dancing all night long to great music. (They even encored him) His transitions are clean and timed just right so you hear enough of each song. When it comes to announcements and MC’ing, he does a great job of enthusiastically speaking when needed without being over the top. The man does his job and he does it well. We couldn’t recommend him more for your special day!

DJ Tay worked with us in the months leading up to the wedding to coordinate instrumental piano covers for our ceremony which turned out beautifully. We also gave him a spreadsheet with songs we definitely wanted to play, others that were maybes and a few not to. He worked off this list but there were still a lot of songs I’d hoped to play that we didn’t hear, and also a handful I hadn’t asked for - but it is what it is. He also brought some great colorful lighting and uplights for the space which really added to the vibe. Overall Taylor did a good job DJ-ing our wedding reception! (Some fun hora photos to share)

Thank you Brick Park Entertainment and Julian for taking the trip from Boston Massachusetts to Western Connecticut to play at my daughter’s wedding. From the first email to the last song played working with Julian was a pleasure. He was accommodating, kind and very informative.

Brian was OUT of this world. From the very beginning, Brian got to know us as a couple and really get a feel for our hopes for our wedding night. Choosing a wedding DJ sight unseen can feel risky, but let me tell you- you are in the best hands. Brian kept the dancefloor full ALL night long. I mean, all night. Family, friends, and even the Vendors raved about the music selection and Brian's professionalism. He did a great job moving things along without rushing anything, bringing energy when it needed to be brought and slowing things down when the dancefloor could use a break. We also used EventSmith's lighting and monogram which were impeccable. Really added some personalized touches that people will remember. 12/10 would recommend if you want the party of your life. So grateful he made our wedding night one to remember (for all the good reasons!)

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.

We could rave about DJ Thrilla all day long, but in the words of our wedding guests: “Best dance floor we’ve seen in a long time!” It’s been weeks since our wedding and our guests can’t stop talking about how great the music was. Arthur did a great job with the ceremony and cocktail hour, and managed a tricky parent dance section (multiple sets of parents & timing!) We requested a Taylor Swift mashup and he exceeded expectations and made it the highlight of our night. The dance floor was always packed, and Arthur did a great job of taking into account our requests while playing music everyone would enjoy. We opted to use uplighting as well, which looked beautiful during dinner (we chose a warm lighting) and was so fun for the dance floor with flashing lights. By the end of the night, he even had guests asking him to travel to Texas to DJ their wedding! Booking DJ Thrilla was one of the best vendor decisions we made for our wedding and we could not recommend him more!

DJ Jimmy Ice was my number one non-negotiable for our wedding, because he's THAT good. Before we even had a venue or date set I was 1000% sure that Jimmy was a priority, because music makes or breaks a wedding!! Not only does Jimmy have the ability to read the room and truly entertain the audience in front of him, he also is genuinely the nicest and most caring person ever. He will take the time to listen to your needs and make sure you have every type of setup you could possibly need. Also his hosting skills are TOP NOTCH! He did an amazing job announcing our wedding party and also gave such a great pump up speech to the group right before we all walked out. We are beyond lucky that we got to have Jimmy DJ our wedding, and we're just so lucky to know him as person all around!!

Denise is amazing! During our DJ search for our wedding, my (now) husband and I came across Denise very early in our search. And I’m so happy that we did! Faced with the fact that we needed to find someone who would get (and keep) both of our dance-happy families on the dance floor, it was daunting to find the perfect fit for us and for the celebration to follow. We had to rely heavily on reviews to narrow down our search…but that only gets you so far when you want to feel the energy. In a leap of faith, we reached out to Denise. After that first meeting, we never looked back! It was easy to just spend time talking to Denise. She was our hype-lady from day one, working with our schedules from planning to the meticulous execution of the wedding day. She was patient with our indecisiveness on which instrumental version of our procession song we wanted (weeks of samples, back and forth, and for us to ultimately pick the first version she shared). As a planner, I very much appreciated Denise’s attention to detail. She combed through every detail with us well beforehand, so that she didn’t have any questions the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend this Lady DJ enough! She helped make our day so special and effortlessly kept people on the dance floor until the lights came on.

I’m Jay and I'm the owner of La Bella and The Beat. I spend my weekends entertaining, celebrating and partying with some of the best people I’ve ever met. Music has always been a passion of mine--from my boombox days in 1st grade, playing for whoever would listen from my neighborhood driveway, to when my DJing side hustle of 13 years became my full-time career in 2018. I’m a versatile mobile DJ serving New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts (or really anywhere looking for a party). For the past decade, I’ve been rocking events all across New England. No my adventures even take the parties abroad.

Jay was exceptionally professional and went above and beyond to make sure our special day flowed seamlessly from start to finish. He took time to get to know us as a couple, and even helped us develop a timeline of events. From our first consultation straight through wedding day, Jay was personally invested in capturing our unique style and translating it into a soundtrack that made our wedding feel like walking through a movie. Every beat was in time with the moment; every selection paired to the energy. His attention to detail made all the difference. He even attended our rehearsal! We could not recommend Jay more; we were looking for a DJ but had no idea we would receive an experience so authentic and inspired. Jay’s genuine appeal made us feel like we were his only clients, and his presence at the wedding was like that of an old friend (who just happened to also be our DJ). Saying farewell at the end of the evening was like parting ways with your favorite schoolteacher. Thank you, Jay, for being as excited about our day as we were! We hope to see you again. – The Potes

We knew we wanted to work with DJ Nazzy as soon as we started planning our wedding, because he was the DJ at my now-brother-in-law's wedding and did an amazing job. We can now say the same about him about our own wedding. After our detail meeting with him, my Day of Coordinator said his timeline is the most organized she's ever seen from a DJ! On the wedding day, from ceremony music to reception celebration, Nazzy was an absolute rock star! His enthusiasm throughout the night - but especially for the bridal party introductions - really added extra layer of excitement and personal touch to the reception. But where the truly shined was on the dance floor! Nazzy kept the energy high and the party going all night long. Seamless transitions and songs catered to all ages and genres kept everyone on their feet and dancing all night. He worked in some special requests we had with a welcome speech after our first dance, an anniversary dance, a special dance with my dad and cousins, as well as a bouquet dedication for my mom. Nazzy also includes a photo booth in most of his packages, which we and our guests had so much fun with all night long! If you want a wedding DJ who not only manages every aspect of your day with professionalism but also infuses it with enthusiasm and keeps the dance floor packed, look no further than DJ Nazzy! He made our wedding day and night an absolute blast and we would highly recommend him!

We decided on a DJ instead of a band for a few practical reasons. It's cheaper, there's more variety in what he/she can play and therefore can appeal to a broader audience, and most importantly for us, a DJ takes up less space than a band. We thought about foregoing a professional altogether and just doing the iPod thing, but I was afraid that it would stress me out. For anyone else who has done the DJ search, there is LOT of cheese out there! I received a packet from this one guy with all kinds of crazy rainbow colors and smiley faces and frankly, his voice on the phone scared me. We wanted a low-key DJ, not a show-boat. Tom was perfect. He totally delivered! He wore a tux and looked great. Call me shallow but that's important - the DJ is in the background of quite a few of the photos. He was professional and knew what to play to make everyone happy. He also played all of the songs we asked him to, which is not always a given. The reception was non-stop dancing all night. We had a blast!

Mickey DJ’d our wedding on 3/11/23 at Hamilton Hall in Salem, MA, and every step of working with him was great! We met a few times over zoom before the wedding to go over questions and talk about our music vibe and vision for the night. Mickey was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and communicative, both in those meetings and email exchanges leading up to the big day. During every phase of the wedding, Mickey found a way to blend a variety of genres that really worked at each point, and had the dance floor moving all night. We requested some songs you might not always hear at a wedding, and he pulled it off and the crowd loved it! We had rave reviews from many of our guests, and I only wish we could have had more time on the dance floor. I’d recommend Mickey to anyone!

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.
