      DJ/MC

      Jim was so much more than a DJ. He kept the day moving on schedule (made a day of timeline for us and kept speakers on schedule and ready) and kept the party going! Our dance floor was full all night! 10/10 recommend!

      Jim made our wedding amazing and was so great at catering to our needs as a DJ and host! Jim came to our rehearsal to help us practice, then arrived day of in a wonderful tux! He adapted to changing situations on the fly, kept the dance floor full, and made the whole night as smooth as could be imagined! He is worth every penny and then some, absolutely hire Jim Cerone at your next event!!!

      Jim Cerone- Excellent Choice!

      Jim Cerone is so impressive! The crowd was engaged the entire time. He is so professional and unforgettable! We are so thrilled with his services. In fact, I was sure to book him before any other vendor since I was able to see how wonderful he was at a prior wedding. He’s the best!
