Rating: 5.0 (45 reviews)

“Ryan was truly the whole package. When we were originally pricing out DJs for our wedding, we were a little shocked by how much they are. However, music is very important to both of us, and we had heard enough negative stories from friends and acquaintances that we knew it was important to find a quality DJ. Ryan was recommended to us by an old classmate, and from our first meeting we knew we wanted him to do our wedding. Ryan is so personable, so attentive, and he makes you feel like you're the only/most important wedding he's doing (while still exuding confidence and experience). We had a great many long Zoom calls with Ryan (we were planning our wedding from across the country) and he thought of things we would never have thought of in a million years. On the day of, Ryan made sure everything went seamlessly. He was the most incredible emcee and DJ, and all our friends commented on what a great job he did curating an atmosphere. Ryan listened to everything we wanted, and somehow made it even more incredible than we could have dreamed. Ryan is worth every penny. Truly.”

“Mike was our wedding DJ, and words truly cannot express how incredible he was. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond what you would expect from a DJ. As a true professional, he made sure we felt confident, prepared, and excited leading up to our wedding day. He was always available to answer questions, offered amazing advice on music selection, timeline planning, and even recommended additional details that helped make our day run seamlessly. We were married in the Oneida Ballroom at Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York, and Mike absolutely exceeded our expectations. Our guests loved him, and the dance floor was packed all night long! What sets Mike apart is that he offers so many incredible add-on services, making the planning process so much easier instead of coordinating with multiple vendors. One of our favorite additions was the Glambooth, a Kardashian-style photo booth that was a huge hit with our guests. Mike even customized it with our wedding logo, making it feel extra special. After the wedding, he emailed us all of the photos, which was such a wonderful touch. Mike also connected us with an amazing saxophone player, and together they created an unforgettable experience that our guests are still talking about. He handled all of the ceremony sound, ensuring everything was flawless from start to finish. The club-style lighting he provided transformed the ballroom and created the perfect atmosphere for our reception. Throughout the entire process, I never once had to worry about anything. Mike genuinely puts his heart and soul into every event, and it shows in every detail of his work. If you're looking for a DJ who is talented, professional, organized, and truly invested in making your wedding unforgettable, Mike is the complete package. We cannot recommend him highly enough!”

The dance lights and effects were out of this world, along with their DJ skills. The dance floor was packed. We even opted for the fog machine for the reception and everyone loved it.

There may be many things to differentiate between DJs, but one of the biggest is the personality and Barb has a great one! Every party needs a different amount of interjection, and she knows how to read the crowd and make them feel at ease. Playing the right song at the right time is an art, a skill that Barb applies seemingly effortlessly from her unlimited music collection. She is energetic, but not overwhelming. Remember the party is about you and your guests, not the DJ.

“Barb was the perfect DJ for our wedding! She was able to walk us through the best options for us and also worked with us on some things she had never seen before. She was professional and fun! No issues on our perfect day.”

“Kyle was amazing to work with for our wedding! His communication throughout the planning process was always professional, quick, and organized. Kyle shared a detailed Google Doc with us to fill in with our personalized timeline of the day and preferences for music and announcements. About a month before the wedding, he scheduled a video call to go through that timeline step by step and to make sure he understood all of our requests. We shared specific songs we wanted for things like walking down the aisle and first dance and were able to share entire playlists of requests for things like music to play during cocktail hour, dinner, and our reception. On the day, Kyle was a rockstar. Everything was set up and ready to go well before our ceremony began. During the ceremony, the audio was excellent. From the volume of the music as we walked down the aisle, to the mics set up for us and our officiant, to the transition into our recessional, all of it was incredible. At the end of cocktail hour, Kyle pulled me aside just to review our entrance into the reception, which helped alleviate some nerves for me! And of course Kyle shined brightest during DANCING! He read the room, kept the energy high, and added in some awesome mixes and transitions that worked so well. We added on the photo booth and printer which was a huge hit! There were two print outs of each photo strip and you could even enter your phone number to get a digital version of the strip plus a video of all 4 photos rotating. This was super helpful especially for sharing large group photos. Kyle also sent us the digital copies of ALL of the photos and videos from the photo booth. We would highly recommend hiring Underfloor Music for your next event!”

Seductionz Soundz Entertainment & Services

Rating: 5.0 (82 reviews)

“Seductionz Soundz made my dream wedding come to life in the most beautiful and unforgettable way. From the moment we connected, Tiffany was phenomenal — her organization, calm presence, and dedication made me feel cared for every step of the way. She listened to my vision, reassured me when I had concerns, and made sure every detail was handled with love and precision. My wedding was in the garden at The Grand Marquis, outdoors during the day, and I dreamed of walking on clouds for my entrance. Because of the wind, I was told it might not be possible. But Tiffany, DJ Dave, and MC Kevin made it happen for me anyway. The moment I walked in surrounded by clouds was truly magical — like something out of a dream — and it is a memory I will cherish forever. DJ Dave and MC Kevin brought amazing energy, kept the flow perfect, and made sure every moment was seamless and full of joy. Even though it was a daytime wedding, the celebration felt full of life, excitement, and emotion. They didn’t just play music — they created an atmosphere. This team didn’t only provide entertainment — they created memories, moments, and emotions that will stay with me forever. They genuinely cared, and it showed. I would recommend Seductionz Soundz, Tiffany, DJ Dave, and MC Kevin to any bride who wants a team that delivers excellence with heart.”

Rating: 4.6 (77 reviews)

“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.”

Dj Double E

Rating: 5.0 (64 reviews)

“In today's world everything is extremely overpriced and service is terrible. My wedding was very stressful for me because of this. I did not have a DJ or a Photographer and honestly was considering just something small scale, until I talked to Ed from DJ Double E. I would give them 10 stars out 5. From the minute I talked to Ed it was a breath of fresh air from the million other outrageously priced DJ's. The price is unbeatable but that's not why I would recommend them. They are absolutely phenomenal and made my entire wedding. The music was perfect from ceremony to the last dance. They were so professional, so involved and so fun. We had a daytime (early) wedding. It is so challenging to get people up and have a good time at 12:30 in the afternoon, I was having meltdowns about it, they reassured me but had the entire place up and having fun. You didn't know if it was day or night. They helped us more than the attendants at the venue. Over 100 guests said how amazing they were. The pictures they took could not be any better. Any other DJ who had packages like this (photo booth etc...) were THOUSANDS, yes THOUSANDS, more!!! I really hate to admit but I'm not easily pleased however I would put my name on the line for DJ Double E after how they made my wedding. DJ Double E exceeded all my and my husband's expectations and -consider yourself lucky if you hire them for any event. I'll be calling them again!!!”

His talent is incredible and he can play to anything and everything. From songs my parents loved, to our favorites, to Drake, Olivia Dean, country, ABBA, and everything in between.

“Booking Carinvalè for our wedding was the absolute BEST decision we could have ever made!! Our venue had recommended BVTLive if we were interested in booking a band, so we watched one of their live showcases streamed live on YouTube. My husband and I enjoyed all of the bands that played, but one really stuck out to us, Carnivalè! We booked Carnivalè without even seeing them in person, that’s how good they are! When we did attend a showcase in person a few weeks later, they exceeded our expectations and we started counting down the days until they would play at our wedding! Working with Nils to lay out all of our options was amazing! He is the sweet person you’ll ever meet and so on top of things! Leading up to the wedding we worked closely with our band leader, El, to choose songs and create a timeline for our wedding. El and Carnivalè have played at tons of events and weddings and were super organized and easy going! Fast forward to our wedding night, El and the band were absolutely INCREDIBLE!! They catered to all ages at our wedding and made it a night to remember! I really can’t put into words how much fun everyone had and how amazing the band sounded the entire night! We are so thankful to El and the band and would highly recommend them to everyone!! If you want your dance floor PACKED all night long, book El and Carinvalè!”

Hiring them was the best decision I made because not only was the dance floor (our deck, lol) full of all my guests having an amazing time, but the photos are AWESOME and all of my guests raved about how much fun they had. People literally said it was the best wedding they ever went to. I couldn't be happier. They were so amazing in the process of planning too, giving me advice on the best times to do certain formalities at the reception.

“From our first conversation, Mike at Soundz Amazing DJ Service made it clear he genuinely cared about making our day special. He stayed in constant touch with monthly checklists and really listened when I talked about the music we wanted—he nailed every song choice and kept the energy perfect all night. What blew us away was how he went above and beyond by collecting voicemails from my late grandpa and creating a touching tribute that we'll treasure forever. The whole event ran without a single hiccup, and his professionalism mixed with his kindness made such a difference. Mike transformed our vision into reality and treated our wedding like it was his own. We can't recommend him enough!!”

“We knew we needed to hire Lucas after our first call with him. He immediately understood the disco-funk music style we wanted at our wedding and his enthusiastic energy was contagious. I had told a friend of mine in the NYC music scene that we hired Lucas and he said that he is the best and we were in good hands. He was absolutely right. Lucas knows how to control the dance floor! Each song blended into the next so smoothly. People were avoiding going to the bathroom and barely anyone touched our dessert because they didn't want to stop dancing. Everyone was feeling the music, from our 11-year-old cousin to our 80-year-old aunts. People were pulling out some impressive moves that I'm not sure they knew they had. I even crowd surfed! Definitely hire Lucas if you want your wedding to be an epic dance party. You won't regret it.”

“I hired this band for my wedding and they were amazing. From our consultation to the day of the wedding, Patryce and Steve were with us. It did not seem like it was just business. I guess it's because they are a couple. The music was fantastic and the musicians were crème de la crème. I highly recommend them”
