As the principal of Pearsontown Elementary, I want to take a moment to give a huge shoutout to the DJ who made our school dance an absolute hit! From the moment the first track dropped, it was clear this DJ knew exactly how to get our students excited and keep the energy high all night long. The music selection was spot-on—perfectly tailored to our students' tastes, with a great mix of fun, upbeat songs that had everyone on the dance floor. The DJ created an atmosphere where the kids felt comfortable, confident, and most importantly, had a blast. There was never a lull in the energy, and it was clear that the DJ was in tune with the crowd, adjusting the playlist as needed to keep the momentum going. What stood out the most was the DJ’s ability to connect with the students. They didn’t just play music; they encouraged the kids to get involved, create their own dance moves, and really engage with the event. It was more than just a dance—it was an experience. Thank you so much to our DJ for making this event so memorable! You helped create an unforgettable night for our students, and I can’t recommend you highly enough for any school event in the future.

Awarded Best of Zola
I was referred to DJ Karizma’s page and as soon as we spoke, I knew he was the one. He had such good energy and was super easy to talk to. What really sold me was that he’s Caribbean — my husband is Guyanese and I’m Puerto Rican, so we really wanted someone who understood both of our cultures and could bring the music together in a way that felt like us. And he did exactly that! From start to finish, Karizma brought the vibe and made the night unforgettable. He wasn’t just a DJ — he was also an awesome MC. He kept everything flowing smoothly, hyped the crowd when needed, and made sure everyone was having a great time. His energy was amazing the entire night. He mixed the perfect blend of music — we’re talking Reggaeton, Soca, Dancehall, Salsa, R&B, Hip Hop, and so much more. He read the crowd so well and kept everyone dancing all night long, from our parents to our friends and even the kids. We’ve had so many people tell us how fun the wedding was, and honestly, a huge part of that was thanks to him. If you’re looking for someone who really knows music, understands different cultures, and just gets it, DJ Karizma is your guy. We’re so happy we chose him. I’d book him again in a second!

David was absolutely amazing for our ceremony and reception! During the build-up to the day, he gave us insightful tips and tricks to use in our planning efforts. Additionally, he was always available to answer questions that my now-husband and I had. The ambiance he created at the reception area was perfect, and I can't take much credit for that. I told him our theme, and he knew exactly what to do. It was perfect. Lastly, when I told David I wanted to dance under the stars at the night's end, he made that happen.

There are not words to describe how much we loved having DJ Krystyle perform at our Aug 2024 wedding. She was very responsive, communicative, and has a super easy online portal that helps capture every detail you could think of for the event music. She’s also a lovely human in general to work with. We went with the approach of choosing the major songs and providing general recommendations around genres and let the expert handle the rest. We had multiple guests tell us they could not stop dancing or singing along the entire night. We had every age group on the dance floor. If it’s any indication - my photographer had to remind me a few times to stop bouncing around so she could get some good still shots. In our opinion, it doesn’t get any better than DJ Krystyle.

Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!
