About Marcus Ho Dj
Marcus Ho Dj
A 16-year veteran of the NYC club scene. I collaborate closely with couples to create their unique musical experiences for themselves and their guests by delivering a Sophisticated Savoire-Faire of seamlessly blended hits from past decades to what's currently in vogue; citing T-40 Dance, House, IndiePop/Rock, Nu-Disko, Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Disco, Latin and Reggae as some of my favorites.
Music has always been a conduit for my self expression. At the age of 16, I was mentored by a club DJ in Seattle. I quickly discovered music had the power to facilitate joy and connection between people. From then on I have worked hard to hone intuitive skills and an eclectic musical repertoire. I pride myself in being able to tune into the vibe of a crowd and and keep the dance floor full and engaged over many different genres. As a NYC wedding DJ and DJ for special events, it's a different experience every time. I fuse my Nightlife and Wedding Experience to ensure a Packed Dance Floor performed with Sophistication, Presence, and Tact.

10/10 Recommend!
From the moment we met Marcus, we knew he would be the perfect DJ for our wedding. He was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and kind throughout the entire planning process. On the day of, Marcus delivered an amazing dance party that kept all of our guests on the dance floor all night long. He was so thoughtful, recognizing our love for certain artists and making sure to play multiple songs from them. He was respectful of our do not play list and hit all of our must-plays! Marcus was also incredibly thorough and communicative, ensuring the flow of the evening went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ - Marcus truly helped make our special day unforgettable.
Thank you Marcus!!!
We absolutely loved working with Marcus for our wedding! He was a fantastic MC and did an amazing job working with the long list of must-plays we had all the way through our entrance, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing through the end of the night. He also did a great job of shepherding people where they needed to go be it for hors d'oeuvres and desserts or out to the dance floor :) It was a fantastic night and Marcus was an integral part of it.
Classy, professional, a DJ that cares!
My wife and I booked DJ Marcus for our wedding in November 2025, and he ended up being the best DJ we could have hoped for. I usually do not love DJs who have that overly hype, sports announcer style when it comes to emceeing and making announcements, but Marcus is the complete opposite. I first met him at another wedding I was working a few years ago, and he immediately stood out. His emceeing had real class and warmth, and the dance floor was lit. I remember thinking right then that when I got married, he would be my first call. He exceeded our expectations in every way. Marcus is extremely organized and thorough, and during our final meeting he went over everything in detail, including coordinating with the band I arranged for our ceremony so there was a clear plan for everyone’s sound systems. One of my biggest pet peeves is bad audio at events, and he made it so I did not have to worry about it at all. On the wedding day, I was genuinely impressed by how much he handled as a one person team. He set up three different sound systems and all of them worked flawlessly for the ceremony in the on site chapel, the cocktail hour space, and the reception ballroom. Our bridal party also wanted very specific timing for entrances, including a moment where the girls interrupted the guys’ dance, and Marcus took the time to go over the timing with everyone beforehand. I have seen entrances like that get botched when the DJ does not pay attention, but ours came out perfectly, and it was because Marcus cared enough to rehearse it with them. He also has a ton of technical skill. He helped my sister and dad set up a vocal and guitar performance they prepared for us and made sure there were no issues with the wireless pickups they were using. He is sharp, professional, and efficient, and everything sounded clean and balanced all day. As someone in the video industry who pays attention to AV, I really noticed the difference. No feedback, no wireless interference, just smooth audio that made the whole event feel seamless. And when it was time to party, Marcus absolutely delivered. He gave great advice on how to get people onto the dance floor, kept every transition smooth throughout the night, and did a great job reading the vibe and culture of the room to keep the energy high. The lighting he brought was also a great touch and made it feel like we were in a club even though it was a daytime wedding. Easy 5 stars. I would recommend DJ Marcus to any couple who wants a DJ they can trust to run a flawless wedding and throw an amazing party.
Dance floor was packed all night!
Marcus did an amazing job as the DJ for our wedding at the Prospect Park Boathouse! Prior to the wedding, we completed a worksheet on the timeline and our song preferences, and then had a planning meeting with him where we went over all the details and he gave us advice on flow and timeline based on his extensive experience DJ-ing weddings. Through all our interactions, we could tell how detail-oriented and experienced he was. The Prospect Park Boathouse can be a tricky venue with its short load-in time and long, narrow layout, but Marcus knew it well and planned accordingly. We also had a Vietnamese/Chinese wedding; in addition to a DJ, we also had a pianist with a singer, and a bilingual emcee. This added some complexity in terms of timeline and switching between the singer and the DJ, but Marcus coordinated well with everyone, kept track of the timeline, and handled all transitions between live music and DJ sets seamlessly. He also showed up a little early to make sure all equipment was set up well and did a mic check during the cocktail hour. During the dance portion of the night, the dance floor was packed all night and people did not want to leave! He played all the songs we wanted (along with additional ones he selected) and all the transitions and mixes were fantastic and kept the energy/vibe high. Many guests commented on how great our DJ was! Even though we had a different emcee, we know that Marcus would have done a fantastic job as an emcee as well - he is warm, friendly, gracious, and charismatic. He is not only a great DJ but also a fantastic human being!
