Ryan is truly the jack of all trades, the absolute kindest human being, and incredibly professional. We are SO glad he was a (major!) part of our wedding day! He was super communicative when we had questions, helped give us some advice, and *!!!even learned a new song just for us!!!* We had just attended a friends wedding and the music was super unrelatable to my fiance (husband now lol) and our friends. We were bummed and worried - hopeful that ours would be fun and get people out there! Ryan was AMAZING. He curated the perfect playlist, set up THREE different locations to play, AND was super cool to honor all our specific wishes. 10 mins to the end I went to him and said eh we are tired such a long day, we can probably wrap up - he assured me he had some incredible songs for the last few, told me to rally- he DID. Ended the night on such a fun, high note. I would recommend Ryan over and over and over and over again. Not only did he totally rock the DJ/musician aspect, but he’s truly a kind person- which just really rounded out the whole experience. 10000/10 experience — thank you Ryan!!!

We had the most incredible experience with Geneva for our destination engagement session in California! We absolutely love the West Coast and wanted something unique for our photos, so we flew out to California and brought Geneva along to capture us on a stunning beach. From the moment we started, Geneva made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera. She gave great direction while still allowing us to be ourselves, making the entire session feel natural and fun. Before our session, Geneva sent us a thoughtful engagement questionnaire to learn more about us, which made a huge difference during the shoot. It felt like she truly understood our personalities and what we wanted from our photos. We can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for a wedding photographer—her work is timeless, and we were so happy with the results. We even purchased a guest book from her for our wedding, and it was a huge hit! Book Geneva—she’s amazing and will deliver beautiful, lasting memories!

Bari and Antonia were so responsive and assuring. They took on my wedding with such grace. No request of mine was too much. They travelled all the way to Jersey City from Philly and were so accomodating. They spent time with all our vendors on the day of the wedding, helping set up with the florist and some of my DIY decor. They made sure my ceremony procession ran smoothly. They made sure all the little details were taken care of. The night of my wedding, the only thought I had was to have a good time, and thats because Bari and Antonia did the rest.

HIRE Gerald and the Plus Ones!!!!! I first heard Gerald play at a friends rehearsal dinner (sadly after I already hired my wedding band), and knew immediately I needed to hire him for my rehearsal/ wedding welcome drinks. Gerald immediately got the vibe of the night and was truly just smashing hit after hit and created the best ambiance and energy. The vibes were seriously immaculate thanks to him. I wish I could go back in time and hire him for my wedding night- I kid you not- and I will regret that I didn’t forever. Not only is he an awesome musician, but Gerald is truly the nicest man you’ll ever meet. Because I’m a last minute person, I think I asked Gerald maybe a week or so before the event to learn a special song for me, and without any issues or hesitation, he did and he killed it. He was even happy and eager to do so. He also took song requests while he was playing and gosh, he really just made the night so wonderful and so special. If I could give him 100000 stars I would. This guy will make any night a great one. Don’t think, just hire him.

Pat and Sean were amazing! The best is an understatement. They are so talented and made our wedding so special. They played acoustic for our ceremony and cocktail hour, then transitioned to DJ for the reception. It was the perfect mix of all the music we loved! We highly recommend them for your special day. You won't regret it!

Everyone at Born to DJ was helpful, professional, not to mention patient with our endless questions! They were so supportive throughout our planning process and their communication was top notch. At the actual wedding and reception, James did a superb job of keeping the dance floor filled, changing the music to fit the crowd. He ensured that the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing music was in line with our requests. He always asked for our ideas and preferences, but had a knack for knowing when we needed to use his expertise. We were his first Filipina Money Dance couple!! :) Even my husband, who admits he is NOT a dancer, was on the floor most of the night with me! From what our friends tell us, James kept the party going after we left! They are truly a first class company and we would highly recommend them to anyone we know. Thank you Born to DJ for helping make our fairytale wedding a dream come true!

Meet Alex, a visual storyteller who brings your vision to life. Beyond the camera, I am an architect of moments, crafting images that transcend mere visuals. Imagine your session as a time capsule, not just freezing moments but encapsulating the very essence of your experiences—the laughter, the shared glances, and the whispers that echo in your memories. I aspire to create a visual odyssey where each image you relive not only the scenes but emotions, thoughts, and ambiance of your session.

We had a great experience with Alex. Our wedding was an elopement which involved a lot of last min arrangements. We didn’t want a ceremony but we did want to get dressed up and have memorable pictures taken. Alex did not disappoint. He ensured we had wonderful pictures to look back on and she made it super fun!
