If I could give them 10 million stars I would. Justin was so incredibly easy to work with, beyond personable, knowledgeable and organized. Even our venue was impressed with his scheduling and timelines! I was a last-minute bride, felt so discouraged with finding the *right* DJ and Justin swooped in and made it happen. (I may or may not have had about a month until my wedding date...yikes to me) Justin slayed our ceremony sound. He had my guests dancing all night with a stellar mix of music and stayed an extra hour to keep the party going. Music is such a huge part of our lives, and our story, and Justin understood the assignment! Thank you for making my wedding that much more amazing, Justin!! (Seriously, book them!)

Drew and his team were freaking awesome! They really were the life of the party and had our somewhat difficult guests up dancing all night long! During the planning Drew was so easy to work with and covered everything, even the stuff we didn't think about! We also booked our photo booth through Boston Entertainment Group and it was so much fun! If you are looking for a dj, you NEED to book with these guys!

DeeJay Tom

5.0

Billerica, MA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000

Customer service to my clients is #1 to me – the wedding is not about me, it’s about you, your friends and your family. Once I understand what you envision at your wedding, I’ll use my 20+ years of experience to make sure everyone has a great and unforgettable time. I become very much involved in the timing and management of the evening from the moment you book me.

Tom just DJ'd at my wedding last month. He was amazing!!! A top-notch professional. I live in San Diego and it was hard planning a wedding in Boston without having the ability to check things out in person. When I finally arrived in Boston a week before my wedding, Tom met with my husband, my mother, and myself. He listened to all of our opinions and made amazing suggestions. The ceremony music was perfect...the entrance music was perfect...and the reception music was perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better DJ...not to mention the great rate and kind way of making a bride feel at ease. If you are looking for a DJ for any event I would 100% definitely recommend Tom

Vibeology IA

5.0

Belmont, MA
  • DJ

Music is a lifeblood of life's journey: a universal language that invokes emotion and creates memories; and when thoughtfully and passionately curated into a soundtrack, custom-tailored to specifications, preferences and tastes, the outcome is truly magical, noteworthy, and filled with joy, sentiment, and connection. For over 30 years, DJ Denise LaCarubba | Vibeology IA has aligned with clients to create and present soundtracks for weddings, fashion shows, fundraisers, corporate, international and private events.

Denise is amazing! During our DJ search for our wedding, my (now) husband and I came across Denise very early in our search. And I’m so happy that we did! Faced with the fact that we needed to find someone who would get (and keep) both of our dance-happy families on the dance floor, it was daunting to find the perfect fit for us and for the celebration to follow. We had to rely heavily on reviews to narrow down our search…but that only gets you so far when you want to feel the energy. In a leap of faith, we reached out to Denise. After that first meeting, we never looked back! It was easy to just spend time talking to Denise. She was our hype-lady from day one, working with our schedules from planning to the meticulous execution of the wedding day. She was patient with our indecisiveness on which instrumental version of our procession song we wanted (weeks of samples, back and forth, and for us to ultimately pick the first version she shared). As a planner, I very much appreciated Denise’s attention to detail. She combed through every detail with us well beforehand, so that she didn’t have any questions the day of the wedding. I cannot recommend this Lady DJ enough! She helped make our day so special and effortlessly kept people on the dance floor until the lights came on.

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Medford, MA

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Shane is truly a special DJ! He works to ensure that your wedding is your own unique experience. You can tell that Shane actually cares about making your day feel special, smooth, fun and exciting.His energy and positivity is unmatched, which makes him so great and easy to work with. From the first calls and meetings, where he gets to know what type of wedding and music you want, to executing a fun and fluid party on the day of, he’s attentive and understanding the whole way through. What’s so cool about Shane was how excited he is to be at your wedding. He had to work with a bridal party of 11 bridesmaids and groomsmen.. not only did he keep us all in order, he pumped us all up and it felt like he was part of the party. We ended up having him stay an extra hour the night of our wedding because we weren’t ready for the party to stop. He checks in on you throughout the night to make sure all the music you want is being played, and he made sure I approved of requests for artists he knew I didn't want played. Shane really takes care of his clients and makes sure you feel great about your party!!

Brandon Despres was the perfect choice for our wedding! We were looking for a DJ who would be fun, roll with some interesting requests, and get the party going without *becoming* the party and he did all that and more. Brandon was really easy to plan with, had no problem splicing songs for our Mother-Son dance where my husband suddenly switched from a traditional waltz to the twist with his mom, and also deftly handled a table round-robin photo shoot that took far too long, a community Contra dance which included a 15 min instruction from a caller in advance, and so much more. Finally, I will say that he was also a consummate professional. He somehow managed to keep a smile on his face the entire evening despite the fact that we were late getting to the venue due to pictures and the onsite coordinator for the location asked him to have people seated and then 20 minutes later very rudely yelled at him for having our guests sit down after cocktail hour. I honestly think I was more incredulous at her behavior than he was, and I can’t thank him enough for approaching the situation with all the grace in the world. Brandon is a true gem of a DJ and you will not regret hiring him… our dance floor was full ALL NIGHT!

I cannot recommend Scott enough. From the day we met with him, a year out from the wedding, to the day of, he was nothing short of incredible. Not only is he an incredible person to work with, but he is incredible at every aspect of his job. Scott's personality radiates excitement and passion and his knowledge and expertise is second to none; he truly was made for this job. He was not only organized himself but helped us organize our entire event, including aspects that did not involve DJ or sound services and really did go ABOVE AND BEYOND in aspects we never expected to get from our DJ. He helped us edit songs for our first dances, coordinated our entrances, helping us with our overall wedding timeline, gave us suggestions and ideas for all aspects of the wedding, created a truly special NYE countdown, and so, so much more. Hiring Scott was probably one of the best decisions we made throughout the entire wedding process and we could not recommend him enough. I am saving his contact for when my own sisters get married someday, he's THAT good. And Scott, if you're reading this- we cannot thank you enough!!

We hired Arthur to DJ our September 2023 wedding, and I can’t recommend him enough! He was very professional and organized and it made planning really easy and stress-free! He did such a great job gauging the crowd and played a variety of different music – all generations loved! I had a few specific song requests including some traditional Italian songs that he made sure to include. Guests were on the dance floor all night! I got so many comments during and after the wedding on how much fun guests had. The photobooth was also such a hit! I loved being able to get a copy of all the photos to look at with my husband after! He also included a free video reel of the wedding - it was such a nice touch! My husband and I love watching it ! I would definitely book DJ Thrilla for your next event !

Awarded Best of Zola
As the couple getting married, I'm so sorry we did not get as much time to enjoy The Poor Cousins as our guests did. They were wonderful. We asked them to play our outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. I also asked if they would be able to play a cover of a song that was not in their repertoire for our processional, and they absolutely did. They were very sweet and professional, and we would absolutely recommend them for bookings.
