Beat Train Productions

Everyone on the Beat Train team was amazing! Right from the first inquiry, they were quick to respond, thoroughly answered any questions we had, and made sure to match us up with a DJ that fit our needs. DJ Katy was INCREDIBLE! She was so fun to work with and is super talented at what she does. She had our whole wedding dancing the entire evening and played a great mix of all genres. She was also a great emcee and kept everything running smoothly. You could tell she put a lot of time and energy into making the playlists. She was THE BEST and we would highly recommend her and Beat Train to anyone!

Beat Train was absolutely amazing from the owner meeting with us and getting the background on us. Always prompt to getting back to us whether it was a call or email. We ended up going with DJ Katy Sackett, let me tell you she’s amazing in every sense of the word. She was so easy to talk to and helped us map out what we wanted on our special day. On our wedding day she was alway checking in with us and played the music that we love plus she’s got some great mixes. I would highly recommend her for any event!

My husband and I had a wonderful experience with Austin. As musicians ourselves, we were highly drawn to Austin’s eclectic tastes and collaborative spirit.

Our guests had nothing but great things to say about the music Austin played at cocktail hour, which was a mix of Nick Drake, Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and requests we had taken from answers in our RSVPs. When it was time to start dancing, he kicked things off with some Whitney Houston and was extremely welcoming and inviting.

In lieu of a wedding band, we organized a DIY jam session involving a good chunk of our guests, who were also musicians. Austin kept the night moving by being ready with transition music between sets and personnel changeovers. He was extremely knowledgeable about gear and communicative with us about our timeline.

Would highly recommend and would definitely work with him again!

Best Train, and Rayven in particular, did an incredible job dj-ing our wedding. They were incredibly attentive and helpful with everything from setting up the ceremony sound, lighting the reception area, and listening to not only our music requests but feeling the vibes of the night and adjusting on the fly. Could not recommend more, definitely helped make our night feel incredibly special!

Katy Sackett of Beat Train was our DJ for our wedding and we could not have been happier! She kept in touch with us throughout the planning process and made sure every detail that we envisioned was taken care of. On our wedding day, she helped make it as perfect of a night as it could be. She brought high energy, played great music, including all of our requests, and got people on the dance floor having a great time. In addition, her customer service was unexpected, but so welcomed - she kept checking in on me and my husband throughout the night to see what we wanted and if everything was going alright, which was above and beyond her duties. Highly, highly recommend!!

Greg is a hero. I initially reached out to him because I liked his sample set (and because he played with one of my favorite bands). It was very clear through our chats that Greg is professional, kind, silly, and really cares about putting together a set that's seasoned to taste. He was super responsive to suggestions and creative with crafting the cocktail hour playlist. But damn, he can really read a room. In the middle of dancing, the power blew out at the venue. Surprised but undeterred, the crowd continued to party. I got my hands on a guitar and started to play Smash Mouth's All Star precariously perched atop a folding chair. During the first chorus the power came back on, and Greg heroically, smoothly, SEAMLESSLY blended in the actual All Star. Everyone cheered. It was amazing. My calves were sore for 4 days from jumping on concrete. Go with Greg.

Greg Lanzillotta from Beat Train Productions was an excellent DJ who went above and beyond to make our wedding celebration memorable. From our early planning stages, Greg provided valuable feedback on our initial song submissions in terms of what would fit best. He also did a great job pairing certain songs back to back in clever ways, and seamlessly wove in special cultural music we also wanted to hear. Greg was able to incorporate all of our “must plays,” and also impressed us with the other songs he played which went over very well with the crowd and kept the energy on the dance floor high. Greg also took the time to share playlists of the exact music played throughout the ceremony and reception so that we could relive the sounds from our special day whenever we’d like. All in all Greg was great to work with, and we would highly recommend him and Beat Train Productions!

We were fortunate to lock down Dre for our New Haven wedding in August, and she met our expectations in every way! We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. She had everything organized for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and receptions. Everything was seamless. She followed through with our recommendations, provided amazing input, and was hit with our guests. Our planner and the rest of our team loved working with her as well! If you are lucky enough to work with Dre for your event, you are in good hands!

Can’t recommend Greg enough! A good DJ was our biggest must have for our wedding and Greg far and away exceeded all our expectations. His communication in the weeks leading up to the wedding was great as he worked to understand our vision, and his execution of the vision was flawless. We provided him with a Spotify playlist to give him a gist of what we were looking for, gave him a few must haves, and otherwise just let him do his thing. For our first dance he even created a custom edit of the song we wanted which was a really special touch. Our dance floor was packed all night and we got so many comments the following day about how great our DJ was. Can’t thank him enough.

I had the pleasure of working with DJ Greg for my clients June wedding. To say the weather did not cooperate would be an understatement, but Greg was completely unfazed and kept guests happy and dancing all evening! I look forward to working with him again.
