The most common piece of feedback I received from guests after our wedding reception was "The DJ/Music was amazing," and I could not agree more. Mystic River Entertainment exceeded our high expectations at every step of the process. This is a somewhat in-depth review, because that's what I wanted when looking for entertainment for our wedding. From the start, we were drawn to Jeff's wholesome personality and his passion for providing a specialized and top-notch entertainment experience for events. He took the time to learn about us; both our musical tastes/histories and our personalities. He let us know exactly how the rest of the process would unfold, sharing his expertise on things like the recommended length of certain dances and speeches. Though he happily shared his advice when asked, his first priority was always to support our vision for our wedding. Through Mystic River Entertainment's very straight-forward app, we were able to plug in all the songs we wanted to hear on our big day, from favorite slow dances to special must-plays (and even a couple "do-not-plays"). Between the app and communications with Jeff, we were able to communicate the exact vibe we wanted for our cocktail hour (we went with a rat-pack style), dinner (we blended in more contemporary tunes), and of course dance floor afterwards (more on that in a minute). We gave Jeff a small idea of what we were envisioning, and he completed and perfected that vision. He has a vast knowledge of all musical genres; I watched videos on Mystic River Entertainment's website of receptions in which the vision and vibe was totally different from ours, yet they nailed those vibes every bit as well. When my wife and I were preparing to go on for our first slow-dance, Jeff was a calming presence, walking us through exactly what he would say and exactly how it would all unfold. The dances and speeches went smoothly, and Jeff was even flexible with us when the best men (twin brothers) forgot to say a toast and wanted the mic back for a moment. From the moment the dance floor opened up to the moment the last song ended, it felt like an experience carefully crafted just for our musical tastes. Jeff knew that we had older family members that were big on disco-type music, and so he had plenty of tunes to get them moving. He knew the years my wife and I were in high school and college, and he put in crowd pleasers from those years that had all our friends singing and dancing like crazy. Some of the transitions he used between songs were so clever that they had the dance floor roaring with laughter and joy. One of my favorites was Miley Cyrus's "Party in the USA" into Britney Spear's "Hit Me Baby One More Time." If you know the lyrics to the former, maybe you can guess how that transition went. I'm mentioning Jeff a lot because we happened to work with him the most, but he has other team members as well, and his assistant at our reception also did an amazing job. Mystic River elevated some of the most important moments of our wedding, moments we can't stop thinking back on. I give them the highest recommendation possible. If you are planning a wedding or event that needs a DJ, I would at the very least reach out to them to see if it feels like a good fit. In our experience, their process was low-stress, their prices were extremely fair, and they treated our special day with the care and attention to detail that the most special occasions deserve.

Style Points DJs

5.0

Glastonbury, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Waterbury, CT

Hi! My name is Matt and I am the owner and head DJ of Style Points DJs. I began DJing in 2016 with my friend Jerry after discovering a mutual love for electronic dance music from the likes of Zedd, Martin Garrix, and Hardwell. I've found an overwhelming passion in DJing and event coordinating, so much so that I've worked tirelessly to do it full-time since 2021. I believe that the DJ is the cornerstone of wedding vendors and I do everything in my power to make sure that I can make the vision of your wedding into a reality.

Awarded Best of Zola
My wife and I were very pleased with our experience with Style Points. I personally was impressed with how Matt continuously checked in with us throughout the process of booking and preparing for the wedding, as well as during the event itself. He made sure he had our approval and that we were on the same page before proceeding with any important parts of the night. MC-ing was great for introductions and announcements as well. As far as music, it could not have been better. We have an affinity for 90s and 00s hip hop, which Matt was very knowledgeable about. The song selection was great from start to end and the dance floor was lively the whole time. Highly recommend!

Divina Strings | Bespoke Performers| Pop Strings | DJs

5.0

Wallingford, CT
  • Ceremony only
  • Starts at $3,900

I think beauty is important. Beauty is what inspires us to do something higher than our everyday. A wedding day should be full of beauty. Whether that means beautiful sounds or a beautiful place setting. In my opinion, the two are inextricably linked. Beauty is what I strive to create for each bride and groom.

Danielle and Her team were amazing!! We hired them for our Wedding in August 2023 in Newport RI and they were outstanding!! We had a Trio for Our ceremony outdoors, a Jazz Duo for our Cocktail hour and then we had a DJ with the fusion options and had an Electric Violinist and Electric Guitarists Play!! Hands Down the most amazing Music Service!!

Nardella’s Music

5.0

Branford, CT
  • DJ
  • Starts at $850

At Nardella’s Music we understand that all clients deserve the absolute best in Service and Equipment at a reasonable price. With over 25 years of experience, over 200 hires on similar online platforms and more than 100 5 star reviews Dennis Nardella is rated a “Top Pro” for a reason. Every Client is different. I spend personal time meeting with each and every client working on a personal level to understand their needs and requests so their event is "their" event. I will put in the time that is needed to be certain your event is a success.

Dennis is the best DJ ever!!! My husband and I were absolutely blown away by how fantastic he was for our wedding. He put on a SHOW! There was a fog machine, up lights, and an entire light show, and microphones to sing along that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! Dennis has an awesome personality and is a blast to work with. On the wedding day he did just the right amount of talking and was able to really feel the vibe of the night and play music accordingly. So many people commented that they thought I had given him the playlist because he matched the type of music we wanted so perfectly! Dennis played a great combination of music that had guests of all ages enjoying the wedding and saying it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to. He was also able to get almost everyone at the wedding into a conga line! He was extremely flexible and more than willing to do help us coordinate many unique items throughout the night (shoe game, husband singing live, “father daughter dance mash up, table dash, reverse anniversary dance). We had a difficult and unique timeline compared to most weddings due to it being a backyard wedding with a not so strict timeline, and two ceremonies (an American ceremony and a Moroccan ceremony) each requiring their own music. Throughout the day, Dennis was flexible and coordinated seamlessly with our other vendors to adjust the timeline when we were running late and made sure it worked for everyone. He knew the best times to do all of the events at the reception and we were easily able to extend him for an hour on the day of the wedding when we realized everyone was having such a good time and we didn’t want the party to end! Dennis was extremely helpful throughout the whole planning process by getting an idea of the type of music we liked and then offering suggestions he thought we would like. He was spot on and made the whole process of selecting music for the whole wedding (so many more songs than I would have anticipated) so easy and ensured we loved what we picked, giving us time to make decisions without us feeling rushed, while also making sure we were getting him the information he needed when he needed it. He always gave his advice but let us have the final say. Dennis went above and beyond the responsibilities of a DJ and dived in to help make our wedding special. When my husband wanted to have me walk down the aisle to a recording of him singing and playing the guitar, Dennis offered his own studio to him to record. My husband was not able to take him up on the offer since we live out of state, but when he sent Dennis a phone recording, without asking, Dennis took it upon himself to do a bit of editing to make the song even more beautiful. When my husband told Dennis he wanted to play the guitar and sing live at the reception, Dennis brought his own music stand and set up everything. He made a fun mashup of songs I requested for my father daughter dance. Instead of table numbers, we named out tables different Moroccan city names. Dennis looked up fun facts about each city that he announced as guests went to the buffet to get their food. Dennis puts his heart and soul into each wedding and it truly shows. Dennis – we truly can’t thank you enough for giving us and our guests such an amazing and fun night. From us to my grandparents to my college friends to my husband’s Moroccan family members who came from Morocco to attend, you gave everyone a night they will never forget!

We really could not have asked for more from DJ Pat - in just a few short meetings he immediately understood and matched the vibe we were going for at our wedding. He really went above and beyond for us during our ceremony and reception. I have never been to a wedding or event with a DJ as exceptional as DJ Pat - he kept to the schedule we set and never missed a beat.
