“Underfloor MUSIC was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding! From the moment we connected with Kyle, their communication was quick and efficient, which was so helpful as we were navigating a venue change from New York to Massachusetts. The travel fee they charged for the move was very reasonable, and we were thrilled to have them there to keep the energy high all night long. Underfloor MUSIC brought the absolute best energy and kept the dance floor packed the entire celebration. They played the perfect combinations of songs that had our guests of all ages dancing the night away. I truly believe they were the best DJ I've ever heard at a wedding - they kept the ball rolling seamlessly throughout the entire event. We couldn't have asked for a better musical experience on our special day!”

If you’re looking to tie the knot or throw an epic event, you have come to the right place. Complete Weddings + Events Albany, NY will help you find the right event or wedding photographer, videographer and DJ to throw a phenomenal party, plus we have fun photo booth and lighting rentals to elevate your event and give you the type of unforgettable experience you’re looking for. When you party with Complete Weddings and Events in Albany, it’s completely about you! Offering the best wedding services in the metro area.

“When planning our wedding for December 6th, 2025, one of the biggest priorities for us was finding a DJ service that fit our budget without sacrificing quality. Complete Weddings Events Albany exceeded those expectations. Their pricing was right on par with what we needed, and their packages were extremely affordable while still offering a high level of service and professionalism. One of the things we found most important throughout the planning process was being able to meet with our DJ in person. Working face-to-face allows couples to build trust, communicate expectations clearly, and make sure the DJ understands the overall tone and flow of the day. DJ Dagger did exactly that for us. He met with us early in the process and multiple times leading up to the wedding, and that personal connection made an enormous difference. By the time our wedding arrived, he knew our personalities, our style, and the atmosphere we wanted. Because of those meetings, everything ran smoothly. The transitions were seamless, the music selections matched us perfectly, and he was fully prepared for every detail. That level of preparation only happens when couples and DJs work closely together well before the wedding date. We highly recommend that all couples take advantage of meeting their DJ months in advance—and meeting with them more than once. It brings confidence, reduces stress, and ensures the DJ knows exactly how to bring your vision to life. Complete Weddings Events Albany, DJ Dagger, and Joe delivered exceptional value, professionalism, and personalized service. We were extremely satisfied with both the pricing and the overall experience, and we would gladly recommend them to any couple looking for an amazing DJ team for their wedding.”

If you’d rather hear literally anything else than the same ten overplayed wedding songs on repeat, welcome. You’re in the right place. You’re building a night your friends will still be talking about twenty years from now, the kind where the energy builds naturally, nobody leaves the floor, and every song hits like a core memory. You don't want a robotic DJ barking into a mic, and you definitely don't want a copy-pasted playlist. You want a soundtrack with actual soul and flawless taste. That’s where we come in.

“My husband and I got married 6/14/24 at Glen Sanders Mansion and Wyatt and his whole team were incredible from start to finish. From the moment we booked with them he was so responsive and helpful with the planning process. The day of everything was executed flawlessly from the entrance songs, to bridal party intros and most importantly the reception music! After a few classics for our older guests I told him to let loose and he did not disappoint! The dance floor was full all night. I got so many compliments on the party and vibe of the reception and all credit goes to Wyatt and co! 10/10 would recommend over and over again! Also the Photo Booth was a hit and it was so sweet we received a book with a copy of everyone’s Photo Booth pictures. I’ll never forget this night!”

It’s the one-on-one relationship that you have with your event host throughout your planning that will, and absolutely should, spill over into the atmosphere of your event. Getting to know you with the desire to personalize your entertainment, not simply customize, is a large part of where creativity comes from, and not just mine, but yours as well! I love to offer many suggestions and ideas for your event but also find it just as important to hear your "unique" and "awesome" ideas.

“From start to finish, working with Upbeat Occasions was a breeze. DJ Chris was responsive to our requests and took time to really understand what we wanted, while also reading the room and keeping the energy right all night long. His transitions were smooth and the song order kept people engaged—the dance floor didn't empty once, and I was out there dancing to nearly every track. What impressed us most was how laid back he was while staying totally in tune with what the crowd needed, and our guests wouldn't stop raving about the music selection. Chris made our reception feel effortless and fun, and honestly, it's hard to imagine our day going any better. We'd absolutely recommend Upbeat Occasions to anyone looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your wedding special.”

This entertainer has performed at over 1,000 events, helping to create a high-energy experience for guests and couples alike.

“We cannot thank DJ Mike Napoli enough, he was such a big part of our special day! Mike is very easy to talk to and work with. He brings such a friendly positive energy to the table. He kept great communication with us throughout our whole wedding planning process. The app he provided us with made everything so easy! It covered all the music we needed from start to end. We were able to customize and add specific notes to the time line as well. It’s truly a dream for any type A Bride. Besides providing the music, we also chose to use Mikes photobooth service. Our guest were able to take prints home and leave a print in our guest book. It was so nice to be able to look at all the photos and messages that were left by our guests. Within a few days after our wedding Mike also provided us the links to all the photobooth photos. We were unsure about lighting but with Mikes guidance he knew exactly what we needed based on our music choices. We are so grateful for his expertise because it turned out absolutely amazing. Not to mention he came early to set up and ran the whole thing on his own without missing a beat. Truly a 10/10 experience for us. We highly recommend Mike! P.S Our only word of advice…This didn’t affect us in the moment but we did get a lot of feedback from our guests that since we did not have mics our guest could not hear our vows clearly during our ceremony. This is something to consider discussing with Mike if you plan to have him.”

“Shawn provided the entertainment for our October 7 wedding and we could not be happier that we hired him! Hiring a DJ can be tricky because it's one vendor you really can't "trial" before your big day. Shawn took away a lot of that stress with a comprehensive questionnaire he had us fill out ahead of the wedding. We also sent him a list of do not play songs and vibe suggestions, but trusted him to read the room to keep the dance floor packed all night. We also really appreciated that Shawn was there to curate an enjoyable vibe -- not to hear himself talk on the microphone all night. He played a great mix of music that was suitable for guests of all ages and backgrounds, yet still felt cohesive when played one after the next. A true professional! Our guests had a blast dancing the night away, and many of them told us how much they loved Shawn's DJing in the days following the wedding!”

“When I first found Saratoga Sound online and listened to clips of their live music as well as their DJ receptions, I knew we had found our DJ for the wedding. After an initial meeting with Karen and Paul, we immediately booked with them. They made planning so easy and helped work with us to shorten our parent dance songs while still feeling like they were a complete song! Saratoga Sound is the best of both worlds with their live acoustic music for cocktail hour, and DJ services for the reception, and our guests loved it! The music during the reception was at a good volume for dinner, and Karen even went up to my mom during dinner to check in which my mom really appreciated. They did an amazing job reading the dance floor and keeping the party going until the very end! They finished the night with Love Story which was one of my song requests, but I had not specifically requested it at the end – it ended up being the most perfect end to our wedding and a memory I will never forget.

Brandon Coppola was born and raised in Queens, New York. His lifelong passion for music, from the timeless Sinatra classics of his grandmother's to the high-energy beats of college nights, has shaped a career dedicated to precision and heart. Brandon married his wife Daniella in Scotia NY July 2025, and their wedding fell short of the night they had worked so hard to create. That experience completely reshaped their purpose, so the newlyweds kickstarted the business and DJ Boroughz Entertainment was born. Both Brandon and Daniella have accepted they cannot change the past, but their goal is to give every wedding, couple, and vision the energy and dedication it deserves to have the best experience possible.

“DJ Boroughz Entertainment LLC was honestly the highlight of our wedding. From our first conversation through the big day, he was prompt in responding to our questions and so easy to work with. The MC work was flawless, and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night without a single dull moment. What impressed us most was how dedicated he was to making sure our day felt personal and special, adjusting on the fly to read the room and keep the energy going. Our guests were blown away—we had so many people asking us how they could book DJ Boroughz for their own events. We can't recommend him highly enough.”

“The New York Players were the thing our wedding guests talked about the most! Aside from being absolutely fantastic and putting on a great show, the pre-event communication and planning support really made NYP a great band to work with. We didn't really know going into booking what things needed to be considered when booking our event music, and Mike was so helpful for holding our hands through the planning process. Before the event, Mike helped us plan the logistics, met with us to discuss our goals, and gave us an extensive song list to select music from for the night, as well as adding some songs that we love that were not on the list. The attention to detail and level of care put into the band made feel so fun and special, and took a lot of the stress of wedding planning out of the music planning due to the top-notch professionalism. The band really is amazing, the experience was like being at a live concert where all of your favorite bands are playing all of your favorite songs.

“DJ Motiv was extraordinary. I was so impressed by his professionalism, communication, and willingness to make sure our night was perfect. I was skeptical at first with some reviews mentioning that the DJ’s weren’t playing the songs they chose. I immediately reached out and that was informed that it would not be an issue. ALL of our chosen music was played, with some song requests of guests (with bride’s approval, per DJ motiv - loved that). DJ Motiv checked in with us constantly, even to make sure our food was at our table, if we needed drinks, if the music was going well, and if there was anything he could do. He was going above and beyond to make sure we had what we needed. I even threw in special requests during my wedding, including him stopping my parent dance half way (on purpose) as if the music turned off, to take the mic and give a short speech. He did it phenomenally. I had a game request, with him being the commentator and director of, and he took that role and ran with it. The wedding guests LOVED him. I have nothing negative to say about his services. Even the photobooth was done great! I also had a custom sign made, with our new last name, and it was perfect! Such a great item to be able keep, and you get a year warranty on it. Anyway, I highly recommend this DJ!! He MADE our wedding perfect. Everyone loved him.”

“This was the second occasion for which I used A Better DJ & Photographer. as always, the staff was very communicative, professional and engaging from the pre-event introductions to the event day. Everything about this evening was intentional; from the menu to the music and Xavier and Aubry exceeded my expectations in capturing my vision. I believe a good DJ is one who is intuitive and can read an audience, and a good photographer is one who can capture moments without you being aware. Thank you Michael, Aubrey, and Xavier for making my moment memorable for me and my guests. I highly recommend A Better DJ & Photographer!”

“Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)”
