I am absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Jerry the DJ and First Class Entertainment, who were nothing short of spectacular at our wedding. From start to finish, they exceeded our expectations in every way. The planning process with Jerry was seamless.

The setup was flawless—sleek, modern, and perfectly suited to our venue. It was clear that they had a keen eye for detail and were committed to ensuring that everything was just right.

Jam All Day Sound and Entertainment began from my love of music and motivating people to dance and have a great time. I’m passionate about what I do and the energy and excitement I bring to each event has led to my success. I feel blessed that my clients go out of their way to recommend me to their friends and family. I love hearing about how everyone enjoyed the music selection and how it appealed to all age groups.

Jamaal was an absolutely incredible DJ who went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable. After being severely impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton, we had to switch venues and move from a ballroom to a tent. Despite all the challenges, Jamaal showed professionalism and dedication. We especially loved the photo mirror he brought—it was such a fun, modern twist on the classic photo booth! He provided plenty of props that our guests loved using for memorable photos, and gave us a book with a collection of photos our guests had taken through out the evening via the mirror, such a special gift from our day! Jamaal also brought beautiful uplighting that transformed our tent into the ultimate dancing destination. He handled every detail with care, creating special and unique moments that truly made our day feel like ours. I would highly recommend Jamaal to anyone looking for an experienced, fun DJ who knows how to get people on the dance floor—and who can even pronounce the trickiest last names flawlessly!

We cannot recommend DJ Eddie enough! He went above and beyond to help me execute a surprise for my husband during our ceremony, which involved playing a special song featuring the voice of his late mother. It was executed flawlessly and turned out to be one of my husband’s favorite moments of the entire day. As for the reception, the dance floor was never empty! Even family members who rarely dance were out there having a blast. So many guests told us, “The DJ was playing all the best tunes!” His song selections and transitions were perfect, keeping the energy high and everyone engaged. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, detail-oriented, and truly knows how to create unforgettable moments, look no further. They made our wedding absolutely magical!

DJ Chris went beyond being DJ at our wedding; he was more of the MC!! He was INCREDIBLE! Chris knew what to play to keep people dancing, what times called for softer music, and was able to deal with any hiccup that rolled our way (and there were a few!). Chris was very professional when one of our guests had too much to drink and helped diffuse the situation. Also, when our ride fell through at the night's end, I kid you not, CHRIS GAVE US A RIDE HOME. I can't recommend Chris enough. This man has only met my husband and I once, but he's earned a seat at the Thanksgiving table for life. Thank you for helping make our Wedding day so memorable. We appreciate you, Chris!!
