The Uptown Groove was the highlight of our wedding reception! From the moment we first spoke with them, the band was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and quick to respond to all of our questions. On the day of the wedding, their energy and enthusiasm were infectious - they kept our guests dancing all night long with their fun, high-energy performance. The lead singer has an absolutely beautiful voice, and the musicians are all incredibly talented. The horn players were especially a hit, dancing and playing all around the venue, even getting up on the stairs at one point! Everyone loved The Uptown Groove and could not stop raving about them. We're so glad we chose them to be a part of our special day.

We had a wonderful experience working with Bobby from The DJ Company. His communication throughout the planning process was always prompt, kind, and stress-free. On our big day, Bobby brought exceptional professionalism and talent that elevated the entire event. He seamlessly handled both the acoustic guitar ceremony music and DJ reception duties, fulfilling all our requested songs and keeping guests engaged. Bobby made things personal by playing guitar live for our ceremony, learning special songs just for us. During the reception he read the room perfectly, playing hits our diverse group of friends and family could all enjoy. We really appreciated Bobby's friendly demeanor and flexibility to make our wedding day unique to us as a couple. The quality and reliability of his services were fantastic, especially for the value. We wholeheartedly recommend The DJ Company for your important events!

Peter is very professional and prompt during the entire planning process all the way through the event. After signing with him, we had no worries and knew that we had made an excellent decision going with him. He assists in anything you need along the way and was very understanding and sympathetic regarding us having to postpone because of COVID. Even though we had to have a Sunday wedding, he did an amazing job getting people on the dance flow and staying on the dance floor the entire night - overall, he was amazing to work with!

Awarded Best of Zola
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!

  • Serves Oneida, NY

Our teams focus is always giving couples the best entertainment experience possible. We combine technology with knowledge and music to create unforgettable moments. Our team is dedicated to bringing you a party you'll never forget.

We got married in June 2024, and had Thaddeus as our DJ. Mackenzie took care of the photo-booth. Over the course of the 9 months leading up to the wedding I probably had 4 or 5 calls with Thaddeus to give him the general vibe we were looking for & work out details. He was professional, honest, and gave great feedback. We had many specific asks and Thaddeus made sure all of our wants fit into his plan. Once the party was going, we gave Thaddeus the creative freedom to do his thing & make sure our guests had a good time. He totally delivered. I absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ that can keep the party going! Mackenzie was great to work with as well. Empire State Events got more backdrops to choose from in the middle of our planning, so she gave me the option to switch! I’m glad we did, the eucalyptus backdrop fit perfectly with our vision. Mackenzie was incredibly friendly & ready to help anyone that needed assistance. Our guests loved the photo-booth & our kids/nieces & nephews were entertained too! Win-win!

They learned 2 songs for us and absolutely nailed them despite it being the first time they'd ever played them live. We sent them a playlist of our 'vibe' and the set list they created kept everyone dancing all night. This did not feel like a 'wedding band' it felt like the performers were enjoying themselves, having fun and doing what they love. They interacted with our guests and people still have not stopped talking about how great they were!

Awarded Best of Zola
Lucas knows his stuff but also makes a point to know your stuff just as well. He sees the big picture of your wedding day and is beyond generous with his knowledge. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to schedule time with him leading up to the wedding. We had several video calls and he was always calm and confident as we dished him all the stress we could manage. He knew just what to say to ease our tensions with any part of the process and was helpful on all fronts, not just the music. Imagine a young Rick Rubin who’s going to make your day happen through fierce professionalism and calming holistic approach. Day of, Lucas was there early and making sure all the gear was working and problem solving on the scene to make the experience even better than we had talked about. He was able to not only have the music playing through the two large speakers we had planned for outside, but also got it seemlessly hooked up to the speakers throughout the interior space. This was key, because we had to last minute move the whole wedding inside due to rain. It was priceless to see see Lucas problem solving all of that with plenty of time to spare because I had so many other things to worry about with the shifting rain plans. I knew I didn’t have to worry about that whole part of it though, and the quality of the sound throughout the day really smoothed over all of the last minute adjustments and helped make everything feel like it was all part of the plan. It was a perfect day beyond my wildest expectations, and Lucas Walters was a huge part of that.

We are so glad we went with DJ Maxx for our wedding! We were looking for someone who would be able to cater to all of our needs (English and Spanish playlists) but who didn't bring a 'club promoter' vibe to the function! We found that and more in DJ Maxx! The dry ice and party lights made the night so fun! Everyone's told us how much fun they had at our wedding and how nice it was to be able to discreetly (lol) make song requests! Definitely recommend!

Shawn did an awesome job! He did the music for our wedding ceremony, the music for the reception, provided uplighting, and the photobooth. My now husband and I enjoyed working with Shawn. He is funny, easy going, and patient. His questionnaire is very detailed and is very helpful for pulling the music together for the day. He also was very focused on making sure my now husband and I heard what we wanted to hear for the music. During the ceremony, Shawn timed the music perfectly. We saw later watching videos that he even cut the microphone out for my brother, the officiant of the wedding, when my brother almost started talking over parents walking down the aisle. Thanks for that, Shawn! Later in the night, we had other challenges with our timeline due to longer than expected speeches, too many tables to say hi to, and my own indecisiveness. Shawn handled all these obstacles very smoothly, kept an eye on the crowd and helped us stay in tune with when we needed to get the dance floor going. He played the songs we requested and helped us out with choosing songs for younger people. Since the wedding went by so quickly, I think the thing I am most grateful for is all the photos and videos he took of the night. The day was a bit of a blur and Shawn let us relive the night by sending us tons of photos and videos of everyone dancing. Thank you for that, Shawn!

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.

There is no hyperbole when I say that Nate and FLE literally saved our wedding. The power went out at our reception venue halfway through cocktail hour. Nate had brought backup batteries for all his equipment and was able to keep the music and party going despite no electricity (an no air conditioning!) and the venue scrambling to order pizza to feed everyone. We were able to do introductions, first dances and speeches all thanks to his set up. He extended his set and kept the party going despite the crazy turn of events. We are SO GRATEFUL to his preparation and our guests were so complimentary of his professionalism and fun playlist. Thank you!!!!
