    Highly Enjoyed Gallagher!

    My husband and I recently had our wedding, in which John Gallagher was our DJ for the entirety of our reception. Working with Gallagher was a delight, as he was pleasant to work with (e.g., kind and flexible to our requests), offered an organized and efficient method for music selection (e.g., options, suggestions, drag/click/search), and professional. He demonstrated excellence in his work as he chose extra music to fill additional time with song selection directly within the theme/genre/category of ourselves&our guests desires. He additionally exhibited genuine kindness and authenticity in his personality as he connected with myself and my husband throughout our experience (e.g., checking to ensure everything was in order as desired, getting our drinks during reception). We throughly enjoyed our experience with Mr. Gallagher and highly recommend him for any event.

    John Gallagher is an absolute professional

    I've worked with more DJs than I can count, as I've been a professional photographer for many years and covered more than 300 weddings as a photographer. When I walk into a wedding venue, and John Gallagher is there, I can completely relax and know that it's going to be a smooth night of entertainment and dancing. He never misses a beat, and has the best "Dancing on a Cloud" in the industry! If you want a DJ that works with you, and can "read the room" this is your DJ. If I gave a DJ ranking of 1 - 10 with 10 being the most likely to keep the party going and never stressing out your guests or the Bride, he's a top pick! I give John Gallagher my recommendation without hesitation or reservation.

    I recommend John for all your Dj needs!! We couldn’t have been happier with our choice! He was our wedding dj and we got so many compliments on how good our music was and how organized our wedding was! He was so good at communicating with us and helping us make everything absolutely perfect! If you want a Dj who communicates, gives you exactly what you ask for, and someone who’s truly invested I 100% recommend John!

    John was a fantastic DJ for our daughter’s wedding. He was a victim of fantastic weather later in the evening as many guests went outside to take advantage of a terrific sunset as our reception was on the lake. But, prior to that he had the dance floor rocking! He kept the reception moving along at a smooth pace and the music was great. Highly recommend using John. You won’t be disappointed!

    John was the DJ for my wedding on 5/30/26. John was AMAZING!! Everyone was coming up to me and asking where I found him and that they want to hire him! He doesn’t play the same old songs you always hear at events. John takes the time to really know what type of event you are going for and really gages it to your liking. If you are wondering who to hire, this is the guy!!
