I’ve spent over 14 years DJing in New York, from nightclubs to my current role as Resident DJ at Raising Cane’s Times Square. I specialize in weddings and private events across the city. My process starts with understanding you, your story, your music taste, and the atmosphere you want to create. I curate the music for your celebration based on your vision, then read the room and adapt throughout the night to keep your guests engaged from first dance to last song.

Imagine your dream event; what does it sound like? My job is to make sure the music for your special day is just to your liking. Whether you want my personal DJ and live sound services, or you want access to any number of the professional musicians I work with, I will organize the entire day. With me as your music coordinator, you'll be hearing more than just wedding bells!

We got married in July at Connecticut College in Southeastern CT as aggressive DIYers with a lot of opinions and family in from across the US. Jacob was our DJ and he kept the party jumping, nailed all the 'classic wedding' moments of first dance, etc... while still playing music that all the generations to boogie too. We were delighted to work with Jacob and highly recommend his services. On top of being friendly & positive during set-up and take down, Jacob brought the party and had a big smile the whole darn night. My spouse and I loved meeting to prep, and felt like all our hopes about the playlist were respected (and amplified!). Jacob even brought party lights for us as a delightful surprise!! I very much hope to never get married again, but when I'm looking for my next DJ or sound tech for an event of any size, I know I'll be calling Jacob. (Photos by Benjamin Allen at HudValley Photo)

HiMotive Entertainment & Photobooth did a great job keeping our wedding reception fun and upbeat. While their communication was a bit delayed leading up to the event, they were ultimately effective in executing on the day-of. The DJ kept the party going all night with a good song selection, though they did play 3 Taylor Swift songs in a row at the start, which we would have preferred more variety. The MC's ad-libs got a little overbearing at times, but overall they did a nice job sticking to the schedule and making important announcements. We'd recommend HiMotive to other couples looking for an energetic DJ.

Austin was absolutely amazing! We hired him about a month out from the wedding after our previous guitarist cancelled on us. Despite how last-minute it was, he dove in head-first, learning the music we needed him to learn, accommodating our requests, and being flexible with our questions and changes. The music itself was played so beautifully (it brought my now-husband who never cries to tears!!) and perfectly, it felt like we hired him a year out as opposed to only a month. Thank you, Austin, for stepping in when we needed you and helping make our ceremony that much more special!

When I hired All In Entertainment, I had multiple options to choose from; however, Anthony's energetic and relatable personality and his knowledge and expertise was what made me choose him as my provider for DJ services. When the time came for my wedding day, (we DIY'D everything) so naturally we ran entirely behind schedule! That's when my DJ Mike SAVED the day along with my photographer and they basically took the coordination of placing the guests in and out of the appropriate rooms and they even helped me make a candle light outdoor ceremony look even better. Mike was exceptional, he confirmed that all the songs that were specifically requested for the ceremony and introductions were played and he went over them with me to make sure that he had them correct AND HE DID! Anthony ABSOLUTELY killed it with the intro remix I requested! Overall it was a great experience from booking to the actual day of the event. Thank you All In Entertainment and team! The Darby's

DJ Pat was a pleasure to work with for our August 2025 wedding! He was extremely prepared throughout the entire day and made sure to provide extra microphones, as well as extras to the extras, in the event they were needed. We shared with Pat that my mother has a tremor and he provided us with mic stands for the speeches so that she would feel completely comfortable the entire time. He transitioned our ceremony music seamlessly and thoughtfully, and never failed to communicate with us throughout the day as the timeline changed. Inevitably, our timeline fell slightly behind, and Pat was flexible with his set to keep people dancing for the entirety of the shortened reception. He made sure all of our 'must-play' songs were played and ensured our 'do not play songs' were not. We loved his lighting setup and could not have asked for a better experience. He communicated with kindness to all of our other vendors, and we are so happy that we chose Rob Alberti Event Services for our wedding!

The Music Boutique was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Scott was extremely helpful and responsive, and always providing us with great ideas, suggestions, and guidance to make our day special. We had a duo playing for our ceremony and during the cocktail hour and then we had a small 3 person band playing for our reception. And it was the perfect amount of people. We had spoken to some other bands and they all kept saying we need some big band for the reception, but since we were having less than 100 people at the wedding, we didn’t think it made sense to have like a 10 person band, it just seemed like it would overwhelm the whole wedding. And we knew we wanted a band component since my father plays guitar and I had a feeling would want to play a song at some point. Then we spoke with Scott, he seemed to understand our vision of having a small band. He loved the idea of my father playing a song, and made suggestions on when was the perfect time for him to play, and even laughed along with our idea of playing “September” by Earth, Wind, and Fire, over and over again, since we were getting married on “the 21st night of September” (we did not do this)! The day of the band was amazing! They even took the time to learn our first dance song, which was a fairly unknown track, and played it beautifully, and surprised us with playing it. Since we thought it was just going to be a recorded version of the song. That was very special to us! And they were more than happy to let my dad play his song to us. Overall, the band's performance was lively and engaging, and they kept our guests dancing all night long. We couldn't have asked for a better band to help make our wedding celebration so memorable, and couldn’t have done it with Scott!

We hired Luis Andrade of Lionizing Entertainment for our wedding, and we are SO GLAD we did! We were looking for someone who would let us have a lot of control over our music, and we got so much more. He took our requests into consideration and did a fantastic job building upon them. Luis was funny, welcoming, worked with my grandparents on getting mics connected for the videos they were taking, played excellent music, worked off of our highly curated playlists for the cocktail hour and reception, and kept the dance floor full for hours. I have never had so much fun dancing at a wedding. I highly recommend him as a DJ, I wish there was another event coming up where we could hire him again.

You know you threw a good party when everyone can’t stop talking about the band! Vibrants energy is unmatched. My husband and I truly enjoyed our time with them from start to finish. They play once or twice a month in bars so you can go see them live! We made it a date night, and after the first time we saw them we knew it was an immediate yes! We booked them two years out and we couldn’t be happier. Justin was super helpful making sure our semi untraditional timeline worked, our more unique song choices got played- and that everything went according to plan. The band members work really well together - you can tell they enjoy playing and making music together. They not only got my guests out on the dance floor but themselves out there. Get a band who can do it all and not make you worry about a thing!

Our experience with SDR Weddings and Events was fantastic! Rus and Dennis were so easy to communicate with throughout the planning process, and they truly delivered on the day of our wedding. They kept the party going until the very end, made sure people were on the dance floor at all times, and made sure the night went exactly how we wanted it to. So many of our guests raved about Rus and Dennis after the wedding, saying they had an absolute blast because of them.

Thank you Brick Park Entertainment and Julian for taking the trip from Boston Massachusetts to Western Connecticut to play at my daughter’s wedding. From the first email to the last song played working with Julian was a pleasure. He was accommodating, kind and very informative. The process of picking out songs, working on the timeline and introductions was very simple and straightforward. Everything we asked for was accommodated, even our special guest singer. Brick Park really brought the fun, so talented, it was more like a concert than a typical wedding. I would highly recommend getting the DJ to spin songs while the band takes a break. There were certain songs we wanted the DJ to play, and it all worked out perfectly. Thank you to Julian and Brick Park Entertainment for a night we will never forget!!!

From the moment we first spoke with Brian, we knew we were in great hands. He’s so easy to talk to, professional, and truly on top of everything. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, and Brian was there every step of the way—not just as our DJ, but as a calming and supportive presence. He gave us great suggestions on song choices to keep the energy upbeat and make sure all age groups felt included. When I was unsure about other vendors like hair and makeup, Brian even stepped in with thoughtful recommendations—he really goes above and beyond. On the big day, everything flowed perfectly. Brian kept the schedule on track, the energy high, and the dance floor full. We wanted the music to reflect both me and my husband’s taste, and Brian made it all come together seamlessly. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. He was such a big part of what made our day unforgettable. Thank you, Brian!

Absolutely incredible. If you're looking for rental for your wedding. Just book B_entertained. From the moment we reached out, their team made everything feel easy. Like really easy. Professional, responsive, and most importantly they listened. No upselling. No pressure. Just honest, experienced advice and flawless execution. We rented the full setup: tent, tables, chairs, linens, dance floor, photo booth, and string lights. Every piece was spotless, sturdy, elegant. The tent felt like a dream, clean and white, perfectly set up, and big enough to comfortably hold our guests (and then some). Tables and chairs? Classic and cozy. Not one wobbly leg or creaky seat. The linens matched our colors to a T. Crisp. Fresh. Ironed. I didn’t even know that mattered until I saw how beautiful everything looked put together. Then the string lights came on. And wow. That beautiful glow added a magical touch. Like a warm hug across the whole space. It turned our outdoor reception into a soft-lit fairytale. The dance floor was sturdy and smooth, perfect for heels, sneakers, and a few surprise breakdance moves. It held up all night without a single hiccup. And the photo booth was a huge hit. Our guests were obsessed. So many laughs. So many memories printed instantly. The props were clean and fun, and the photos looked amazing. They arrived on time. Set everything up perfectly. Double-checked with us throughout and all done with a smile. I honestly can’t recommend B_entertained enough. If you want a seamless, beautiful, no-stress rental experience that elevates your day, they are def it. Book them. You’ll thank me later.
