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.

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!

Empire State Events is a high-end entertainment company serving Upstate NY. If you want your wedding to be the best wedding that you or your friends have ever been to, considering scheduling a time to discuss your vision with them.

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!

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!

As soon as I got engaged, I immediately started seeking a musician because music and ambience is so important to me. I listened to so many different options and was thrilled when I found Anthony. His voice, style and entire package was exactly what I was looking for and I will be forever grateful that he was a part of the most special day of my life and truly made it perfect. I remember just stopping and taking a moment during my wedding reception to just watch and listen to his performance and felt so incredibly lucky that he was singing at my wedding. His piano and guitar skills are incredible and his voice is beautiful. He is so incredibly talented. All night, my guests kept coming up to me to tell me how amazing he was and I felt so proud that everyone could enjoy the experience. Working with Anthony was so easy and positive. Planning a wedding is so stressful but Anthony being so accommodating, patient, helpful, attentive and calming made it much less stressful for me. Anthony is not only amazing and talented but he is a kind and genuine person and working with him was an absolutely wonderful experience.

The Music Boutique was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Scott was extremely helpful and responsive, and always providing us with great ideas, suggestions, and guidance to make our day special. We had a duo playing for our ceremony and during the cocktail hour and then we had a small 3 person band playing for our reception. And it was the perfect amount of people. We had spoken to some other bands and they all kept saying we need some big band for the reception, but since we were having less than 100 people at the wedding, we didn’t think it made sense to have like a 10 person band, it just seemed like it would overwhelm the whole wedding. And we knew we wanted a band component since my father plays guitar and I had a feeling would want to play a song at some point. Then we spoke with Scott, he seemed to understand our vision of having a small band. He loved the idea of my father playing a song, and made suggestions on when was the perfect time for him to play, and even laughed along with our idea of playing “September” by Earth, Wind, and Fire, over and over again, since we were getting married on “the 21st night of September” (we did not do this)! The day of the band was amazing! They even took the time to learn our first dance song, which was a fairly unknown track, and played it beautifully, and surprised us with playing it. Since we thought it was just going to be a recorded version of the song. That was very special to us! And they were more than happy to let my dad play his song to us. Overall, the band's performance was lively and engaging, and they kept our guests dancing all night long. We couldn't have asked for a better band to help make our wedding celebration so memorable, and couldn’t have done it with Scott!
