We used their DJ and photo booth service for a graduation party. Our DJ was great! He checked in with me and my daughter, he took requests, he was having a great time which set the tone. The photo booth was a lot of fun too. She created a book for us and it came out so cute. She added little decorations to the pages.

Hello, my name is Allen. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about the past, present, and future of my passion for music. My first DJ event was in 2010 when a couple of my friends wanted to have a New Year’s Eve party. The opportunity of using a friend’s professional DJ equipment came about. The rest is history – I haven’t stopped since! I am constantly learning more and more each day and having fun while doing it. I’m like a kid on Christmas morning when I purchase a new piece of DJ equipment or get butterflies when someone books an event. I love playing music! Especially playing music people like.

We had a great experience working with Good Times DJ Service for our wedding. He was very communicative throughout the planning process, responding promptly to our questions over text, email, and phone calls. He took the time to understand our musical tastes and style, and it showed in his song selections at our reception. The dance floor was packed all night! He was professional, arrived on time, and kept everything organized. During the reception, he paid close attention to the crowd vibe and adjusted the music when needed to keep the party going strong. We would highly recommend Good Times DJ Service to other couples planning their weddings - he helped make our special day a huge success!

Nationwide Wedding DJs made finding a DJ for our wedding so much easier than we expected. Michael was quick to respond and got us connected with DJ Danny Crush, who turned out to be perfect for our event. Once we were linked with Danny, we didn't need a middleman anymore and could communicate directly, which streamlined everything. The setup was smooth and Danny kept the energy high all night long. Using an agency like Nationwide to find a local DJ in our area saved us hours of searching on our own. The booking process could use some polish in their planner formatting, but overall we're grateful for how efficiently they got us to the right person for our special day.

AZBESTDJ Team 
Rating: 5.0 (28 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Albuquerque, NM

I'm DJ Daniel, and as a team of full-time professionals, our goal is to bring your unique wedding vision to life. We skip the cheesy announcements and predictable playlists, focusing entirely on curating the perfect, personalized vibe for your celebration.

Awarded Best of Zola
First of all, we wanted to say thank you to DJ Daniel and DJ Inessa for helping make our June 2026 wedding so memorable. We booked the AZBESTDJ Team after a short phone call with DJ Daniel. He answered all of our questions, made the booking process simple, and we immediately felt comfortable choosing them for our big day. Our wedding included an outdoor ceremony and a reception at a second venue about 15 minutes away. Since it was a longer wedding with an outdoor ceremony and then reception following at two completely separate locations that were a few miles apart, DJ Daniel recommended bringing a second DJ. That turned out to be a great decision because everything flowed smoothly from start to finish. DJ Daniel provided the ceremony music and a wireless microphone for our officiant, who was a family member. The timing of every entrance song was perfect, especially the bridal entrance. Guests even commented that they could clearly hear every word of the ceremony. The reception was just as much fun. Our parents and older family members loved the classic dance music, while later in the evening DJ Daniel did all the MC introductions and announcements we had planned. The dance floor stayed busy all night, and at 1am we he had big smiles and our guests are still talking about how great the dance music we chose and that DJ Daniel implemented was. From the easy online quote and "click to book" deposit to the last dance, everything was organized, professional, and stress-free. If you're looking for a professional Wedding DJ company that truly cares about your wedding vision, customizes the music to your style, and keeps everyone from your cousins to your aunts and uncles out on the dance floor, we highly recommend the AZBESTDJ Team. Thanks again DJ Daniel and DJ Inessa
