DJ Dan Fudim

  • DJ
  • Starts at $3,000
  • Serves Long Island City, NY
  • Offer

After 14 plus years DJing weddings across New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, I know the fear is not just bad music. It is awkward MC moments, dead air, generic playlists, and a dance floor that never connects. My style combines real wedding experience with NYC nightlife instincts: live mixing, clean announcements, calm planning, and room reading that keeps every generation included without making the night feel forced.

From the moment we booked Dan, I felt this incredible sense of calm. I’d been told by others, “Your DJ will just do whatever they want”, but I quickly learned that Dan is different. He listens, really listens, not just to what you say, but to the things you don’t even realize you’re communicating. He takes those details, both spoken and unspoken, and uses them to craft a wedding experience that feels so personal, you’d think he’s known you for years. Dan’s kindness is the kind you feel, not just in the way he treats you, but in the way he treats your day. He takes his job seriously because he understands it’s not just about music; it’s about moments. And he works tirelessly to protect those moments. There are countless things he does behind the scenes that you’ll never even know about, all to make sure your day runs smoothly and exactly how you dreamed. Our wedding was especially tricky as we were blending Italian and Egyptian traditions, and I wasn’t sure how to make it all flow naturally. I told Dan how important it was to represent both cultures equally while also capturing us as a couple. He didn’t just nod and say, “Got it.” He researched. He planned. He asked thoughtful questions. He made sure every transition made sense, every song had a purpose, and every moment felt intentional. With Dan, you’re not just getting a DJ. You’re getting a guide, a sounding board, and someone who genuinely has your best interest at heart. You can ask him about things that have nothing to do with music— timeline issues, vendor suggestions, tricky wedding-day logistics—and he’ll give you honest, experienced advice because he truly cares about the big picture, not just his part in it. On the day itself, Dan wasn’t just playing music. He was quietly orchestrating the energy of the room. He made sure our guests were always engaged, that the dance floor was never empty, and that the flow of the night matched our personalities. Guests couldn’t stop talking about how perfectly the music blended our two cultures and one friend was literally Shazamming song after song because every single track was that good. Also, if you’re debating about a photo booth, DO IT and book it through Dan. The quality was insane. Everyone loves a photo booth, but these were hands-down the best photo booth shots we’ve ever seen at a wedding. Other agree.Crisp, vibrant, and so much fun—our guests are still raving about them. Dan sends you all the photos taken throughout the night and my husband and I keep going through them. It’s so fun to see our guests having a great time. Dan wasn’t just our DJ. He was our advocate, our cheerleader, and our behind-the-scenes hero. If I could give him 100,000 stars, I would. If you’re lucky enough to have Dan Fudim available for your date, book him immediately. It will be the best wedding decision you make.

Book All In Entertainment!! Anthony is phenomenal! It's been well over a month since our wedding, and our friends and family are STILL talking about how fun the dance floor was. All because of All In Entertainment! Even our older relatives who couldn't really get up to dance talked about how fun it was to see everyone up on the dance floor having the time of their lives. On the day of the wedding, because we didn't do the bouquet toss and stuff, there was some extra time before dinner. Anthony did a fantastic job figuring out a plan to fill the time and worked with our photographer to make sure the evening went smoothly. He added no stress to our day and truly helped make it magical! I am thrilled that I booked All In Entertainment! And ending the night by joining us on the dance floor and dancing to Bye Bye Bye was a perfect cherry to the night!

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.

We are so happy we chose The DJ Boutique to be our wedding day DJ! They **absolutely** nailed it at our wedding! We felt at ease from the first meet and greet with Jamie and impressed he came out to meet us face to face instead of keeping everything virtual. They are super friendly, communicative, and made us feel like we were in great hands. On the big day, the energy they brought was next-level. Our dance floor was packed all night, and the music was spot on!! We gave Jamie 2 spotify playlists of potential wedding music to play and he turned them into the perfect soundtrack for our day. Sooooo many guests told us how much fun they had and asked who our DJ was because they wanted to take note of them for their next event! The DJ Boutique showed attention to detail and joined meetings with our wedding planner and reception coordinator. If you’re looking for a DJ who’ll go above and beyond, this is it. We’d absolutely work with them again in a heartbeat for any event—can’t recommend them enough! Thanks for making our wedding unforgettable!! You guys are the best!

Hi, I’m Dan Ross — a NYC-based DJ with over a decade of experience bringing unforgettable energy to weddings, private events, and dance floors across the city. From your first dance to your final send-off, I’ll work with you to craft a soundtrack that feels like you — blending hip-hop, pop, reggaeton, R&B, afrobeats, house, and more to keep the energy flowing and the dance floor full. Whether I’m DJing or MCing, my focus is always on creating a seamless experience your guests will remember long after the night ends.

Dan was absolutely amazing as the DJ for our wedding at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden in 2026! He struck such a great balance between being organized, professional, and genuinely fun to work with. From the beginning, we felt confident that he understood the kind of night we wanted. Our music taste was all over the map — traditional Chinese music, ’90s emo, K-pop, country, and classic wedding dance floor staples — and Dan somehow made it all feel cohesive. He took our requests seriously, read the room beautifully, and kept the dance floor packed right up until the end of the night. He was also an excellent MC and audio professional. He helped us with some custom audio requests during the ceremony, we had no issues with mics or sound at all (I was worried) and during the reception, he kept the timeline moving, made announcements at the right moments, communicated well with our planner, and brought the perfect amount of energy without taking over the spotlight. As a stressed out, perfectionist bride, I had no worries with Dan. We could not have asked for a better DJ!

We had an amazing experience with The Hook Club for our wedding. Dan and his team were so easy to work with, and their 5-piece DJ band was the perfect, fun switch-up from a traditional band for our June wedding at Greenpoint Loft. We also had a ceremony guitarist and a saxophonist with tracks for the cocktail hour, which added great touches to the day. The uplights they brought for the room were priced very well and created a beautiful atmosphere. The music planning worksheet they provided was incredibly helpful, and they offered valuable advice on the timeline and flow of the reception, which was a huge help. They were fun to work with, and on the night of the wedding, they absolutely crushed it. The music was fantastic, they kept the vibes high, and their crowd engagement was excellent. We highly recommend The Hook Club for any event. They made our wedding unforgettable!

11/10! Absolutely use Non-Traditional Wedding DJs! We had the absolute best experience working with DJ Nico Rojo and owner Ben Boylan at Non-Traditional Wedding DJs. My wife and I got married in October 2025 at Farm to People in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Music is very important to me and I cared a lot about our choice of DJ, and consequently met with a lot of different DJ services. It was immediately clear that NT DJs would be our choice once I met with them. Nico and Ben both convey high levels of competence and professionalism while retaining the feeling of a business owned and operated by real people, and importantly real people who genuinely care about your wedding and experience. When I think wedding DJ, my mind, and I think many people's, first goes to "what music is being played during the reception when everyone is on the dance floor?" You'll actually work with your DJ for way more than that - ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and maybe more depending on your special day. Nico was not only great at that first, narrow idea of a DJ, but he was consistently awesome for every part of our wedding day. Whether he was determining what part of the evening music should be played, mixing and sequencing, or picking music that 'rhymed' with the rest of our selections, I felt very comfortable and at ease knowing he would crush it (and he did). Importantly, we are low-key and understated people and wanted our DJ to reflect that - we wanted to skip the common DJ-as-Hypeman setup that usually includes yelling into the microphone for folks to "get out on the dancefloor." Nico worked with us to understand how we wanted announcements and intro's to go and was happy to customize to our preferences. Everything was so smooth. We were able to think about all the other facets of planning a wedding while working with Nico & Ben!

The short version of this review: if you want the music at your wedding to be awesome and exactly what YOU love to hear, and without cheesey emcee vibes, hire Marcus! Marcus did such an amazing job DJing our wedding, we couldn’t be more thrilled. He is extremely thoughtful with his work. He took careful note of my husband and my musical tastes and preferences, as well as the vibe of our wedding, instead of playing a standard tired playlist. Per our request, he blended in some Latin music seamlessly. The dance floor was full and lively all night long, exactly as we had hoped for! He played songs we hadn’t requested but that we love, leaving me wondering how he could have known so well what to play. He also respected our “do not play” list, as I found out multiple guests requested songs on it and he politely declined. Marcus is very thorough and organized which made working with him so easy- he was on top of all the details, order of events/cues, even reviewed proper name pronunciation with us in advance. The event manager at our venue said she loved working with him and was very impressed. Marcus has such a kind and warm personality, and a really special talent- we feel so lucky that he was part of our big day!

They had great communication - it was easy to coordinate with them through their app and they always replied to our texts quickly. On the day of, their DJ played a wonderful variety of songs that kept our dance floor packed all night. The song selections were perfect and the lights really added to the fun, lively atmosphere. Our DJ was especially great, even dancing some merengue with one of our guests! We couldn't have asked for a better entertainment team to make our wedding celebration so special.

We had DJ Zach Kerns at our wedding and he was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The dance floor was packed all night and we got tons of compliments on him!!! I am a bit of a self proclaimed ‘music snob’ and I had a LOT on my ‘do not play’ list and a LOT of silly details about how I wanted music to be played lol!!! My list of music requests was obnoxiously long and could probably have filled up like 5 whole weddings xD Zach was literally so kind, understanding, patient with me and took all of my insane requests into consideration - and was able to navigate my excel sheet of like 18384746627281 songs with ease!!! I couldn’t have imagined the night going any better than it did. He did a perfect job. Also giant shoutout to Jane for doing all of the coordinating for our big day and for suggesting Zach as one of the DJ options after our first meeting. I loved the Stylus website because you could easily listen through mixes from the other DJs to see who would fit your style.

Hiring DJ KDOT LIM (Kevin) was the best decision we made when going through the process of hiring our vendors. I am very particular about my music and it was a TOP priority that we worked with someone that understood our vibe, vision, and overall music selection for our big day. He was such a pro and knew what to ask for our venue's AV set up, music prep, and even attending rehearsal which was totally optional for him to join. Kevin understood everything from the timing of the music for the processional, and most importantly my big entrance down the aisle. When it was time to party, he spun all the tunes I requested and also went above and beyond to DJ the most FUN set ever!!! One of my highlights from the day was my husband and I dancing to one of our favorite house tracks that I didn't even request. He just had the perfect song queued up for the right time!!! I can't imagine what the day would have been without him. He had all our guests up and dancing including my parents and uncles and aunties. The vibes were immaculate!!! Above all, his personality is so kind and chill which is the kind of person you want to be working with for such a big life event. I cannot highly recommend him enough!

Skylark Music 
Rating: 5.0 (51 reviews)
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Long Island City, NY

Jesse and Justin have been playing music together since they met performing in a band at Disneyland in 2001. After moving to Beacon, NY around the same time, it made sense to start an official wedding music business to share their love of music with some of the many happy couples getting married in the Hudson Valley. One thing they love about playing music for weddings is the variety that is required of them. Every gig is different and they all happen on one of the happiest days of the clients' lives!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had an amazing experience with our wedding music with Skylark from start to finish. Justin and Jesse played live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and Justin DJ’d our reception. Justin was great at communicating with us both before the wedding and throughout the reception, which made everything feel easy and well organized and was wonderful to work with. It made everything feel seamless and stress-free and we knew everything was under control. Justin has a great attention to detail. We had a smaller wedding of about 50 people, and Justin did an amazing job keeping the energy up all night. He gave helpful suggestions during the reception that kept things flowing smoothly and made the night even more fun. We would absolutely recommend them!
