He watched as discerning clients and couples sought more personalized experiences at their weddings, yet the bands continued to perform using standard playlists with few requests. He realized there can be a better way for clients to be a partner in designing their event music experience. As with flowers, cakes, menus, and stationery, event music can be personalized for a tailored wedding experience for clients and their guests.

Perfect Sounds Dj Music Entertainment

Cicero, NY
  • DJ
  • Serves Rochester, NY

Since 1982...Experience that works for you! It’s been said that a DJ can make or break the wedding reception, don’t just rely on a website or what you read on the Internet to make a decision about your wedding reception entertainment. Good music entertainment is all about getting the party going, keeping the party going, and coordinating the formalities so it's stress-free and fun. Put my experience to work for you and I will make your wedding reception what you've always dreamed of.

Perfect Sounds was the perfect DJ Service for our wedding. They showed how professional they are when I forgot to tell them that "Otto the Orange" was coming to our wedding reception. I didn't even know Otto was there until he made a grand entrance with the help of Perfect Sounds. They handled everything without even mentioning this omission to me on my special day. They just took care of it. We highly recommend Perfect Sounds DJ Music & Entertainment. They are without question the best.

Saxman Slim

5.0

Buffalo, NY
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $750
  • Serves Rochester, NY

Half of the event occurs before anyone steps on the dance floor. Live sax music sets that special atmosphere for life's most important party. When it’s time to dance, Saxman Slim provides experienced DJ services. All wedding DJs know what works. The trick is to imagine how the next song will feel in the room before it’s played. Musicians make excellent DJs because their training enables them to accurately hear a song in their head, so they can choose the right transition to inspire renewed dancing excitement. And instead of annoying talk stating the obvious, Saxman Slim prefers to let the mix speak for itself, commercial-free.

Matt has been great to work with, he's very responsive and happy to cater to all of our music requests. He played the saxophone during the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and then switched to DJing for the rest of the night. Matt was very personable and professional while emceeing. His price was comparable to other DJs, but you can't beat having a live musician! 10/10 recommend!

Rd Entertainment Dj Services Inc.

5.0

Auburn, NY
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,395
  • Serves Rochester, NY

With 20 years of experience as a musician and entertainer, I understand the importance of flow, timing and reading a crowd. For over a decade I have been hosting and dj-ing weddings and private events. People ask me constantly what separates us from other dj services. It's simple, there is no ego or persona that is being represented. No hokey props, radio announcing or other tacky tactics. Honing in on what someone wants, is the key to a successful party. The Client is the window to the event. It just takes someone with experience to know what questions to ask in order to provide an unforgettable event that reflects your taste.

There are only a few Dj's I recommend and Rocko is on that list. Always has a packed dance floor and guests/clients are always happy and have a great time!

If you want an absolutely SPECTACULAR wedding band, look no further. Hot Mess was truly the best decision we made for our wedding. Jason, Gail, and the entire Hot Mess team was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process. They were super accommodating, kind, helpful, and they had endless patience when working with a very distracted bride. :) During the wedding itself, they had all 130 people on the dance floor from start to finish, and everyone had an incredible time. They truly went above and beyond to make our day extra special, such as learning a song in Portuguese and changing into pink outfits halfway through the night. It has been almost 6 months since our wedding, and our guests still can't stop talking about our amazing wedding band! I truly can't recommend Hot Mess enough; they are the whole package and so so much more!! THANK YOU to Hot Mess for making our wedding day the absolute best.
