    James was amazing!

    James was an absolute super star! We had a rainy day for our wedding and had to go to our rain plan, he didn’t miss a beat and was able to make everything go smoothly. He kept us on track timing wise and made sure everyone knew what to expect. We didn’t give him any real direction to go with, but he read the crowd and played the perfect mix of music to get everyone on the dance floor and keep the party going throughout the whole event. We couldn’t recommend him more!

    DJ James is the BEST

    From initial phone call to throwing the best dance party at our wedding, DJ James was amazing. Extremely helpful in the planning process with a very organized outline of the night. His MC skills are great, we were on time the entire night. When it came time to dance, our friends and family were on the dance floor the ENTIRE night. Awesome experience.

    Thanks James!!!

    We worked with James, who was a blast! He made a great playlist for our wedding reception, had a full sound board set up, and was extremely professional. He kept us in the loop, was on top of the organization for the day as well. He also did a great job with handling our family as well. Can’t recommend him enough!

    Incredible night, Amazing DJ!

    Freddy P is a fantastic DJ! The music kept everyone on the dance floor all night long – I had so many guests talk about the dancing, even those who don’t normally dance! Fred was professional and friendly, and made sure to play all of the songs we had requested (we love music and were very particular!) Fred is an incredible MC, was able to read all guest names perfectly and kept the energy up throughout the night. Overall, I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and memorable wedding reception!

    Amazing and so so so helpful!

    James was incredible. From helping to coordinate and figure out the order of events to actually DJing our wedding, James was so much help. He not only played great music but he also helped to run the day and make it not only a great and easy day for me, but also our guests. I would hire him in a heart beat for any other event I have and recommend him 100%! He really helped make the day great. Thanks James!

    Best DJ!!!!

    If you want everyone out of their seats dancing for your wedding, you must hire Fred. A lot of my guests including myself and my husband didn't stop dancing until the last song was played. Fred nailed it!!! Fred is personable, fun, professional, and made everything a great time! He is the best! He will play everything you want and will make sure they are played at the right time. Trust me when I say hiring Fred will be your best decision.

    Can you DJ our next event!?

    We worked with James for about 8 months leading up to our wedding. He was thorough in his communication, understanding of what we wanted and seemed genuinely happy to celebrate this journey with us. It was very stress-free working with James. He was helpful in his suggestions and really took the time with us to make sure the flow of our day was coordinated well with music. The day of the wedding, he was super organized, and played the best music. Every one of our guests commented on how the music was awesome and how clear everyone could hear us during the ceremony. It was a great time, thank you so much James!

    Book James from FP DJ Services!

    James was the highlight of our wedding. From the first time we talked to him over the phone to get to know each other a bit and tell him what we expected from the music he'd play, I could tell he got our wishes and expectations for the wedding music perfectly, but I could have never imagined having so much fun and such an amazing music set. Every song he played was perfect for dancing (just what we wanted) and the two of us and all of our guests had a blast. We danced for hours non-stop, and I would have kept dancing for many more hours. If you want to make sure your wedding is fun and enjoyable, BOOK JAMES AS YOUR DJ. You will not regret it.

    DJ James-Excellent Choice

    DJ James McNally did an incredible job with our wedding. Professional and easy to talk to about our concerns/music choice. He kept us up to date on the process and provided a handy chart to pick our songs for all the important parts of our wedding. Highly recommend and would use his services again.

    Amazing Wedding DJ!

    DJ James was absolutely amazing! He was our DJ for our New Year’s Eve wedding and all our guests raved about him. From the start, he was extremely organized and sent us a template to fill out outlining every wedding detail he would need to know! He read the room really well throughout our entire wedding and kept everyone on the dance floor! He made sure the groom and I were fed, happy, and having a great time. I would recommend James to anyone!

    10/10 Would Hire Again

    DJ James was friendly from the first conversation we had all the way to the end of our wedding night! You can tell how professional he is from the sound advice he gives. My husband and I were so impressed. James does an amazing job of checking details like name pronunciations without making anyone feel panicky, and he had song lists we could refer to when selecting music that made the process much more fun. You can't go wrong with him!

    The best DJ!

    Dave was hands down the best wedding DJ we could have asked for! I was confident that Dave would be great right from the start. His phone calls with us were professional and valuable, and guided us to start thinking about important details that we wouldn't have otherwise thought about. The music he played was exactly what we wanted, and his ability to be flexible with the timeline while still getting everyone of all ages on the dance floor was truly unbelievable. Thank you Dave for such a memorable party!

    DJ Fred keeps the party going!

    For my wedding celebration at the Red Barn, it was a no brainer to go with DJ Fred. He's not only a preferred vendor, but you will see his name all over New England recommended DJs. Fred was a collaborative partner and played all the hits and kept the music flowing throughout the entire reception! Through dinner, toasts, dancing, he really cares so deeply about making the night memorable and fun.

    We highly recommend having James as your DJ. He did an amazing job at our ceremony and reception. He made sure everything was exactly how we wanted it right up to the last minute. He was also very helpful in coordinating the wedding reception process (intros, caking cutting, first dance, garter/bouquet toss, etc). Everyone had a blast dancing the night away!

    An awesome experience!

    We really enjoyed having Fred as our DJ! Once we sent him all of our song choices and had a quick phone conversation with him, I feel like he really got the fun and simple vibe we were going for and ran with it. His song choices were perfect and he was very responsive to requests. Once the music started, I don’t think our guests stopped dancing! Would highly recommend!!

    Get ready to sing and dance the night away!

    James Mcnally delivered the party of our life on our wedding day. He had to step in just a couple of weeks before our wedding and he was wonderful. He got up to speed quickly, met with us to address any concerns, and even made some additional song selections that made our day even more special. On the day of the wedding, he knew exactly how to get everyone of all ages on the dance floor and played all the songs that we had hoped to hear. I couldn't recommend James more highly!

    Fred knows how to keep the people dancing!

    Fred was so wonderful to work with. From the planning phase to our actual wedding, he was 10/10! He's very professional but also laid back and so incredible at what he does! It was important to us to keep the dance floor moving and grooving all night and Fred did just that! He reads the room and knows exactly how to keep people dancing. If you are looking for a wedding DJ, I cannot recommend Fred enough - you wont' regret it!!!
