Over the top DJ Experience

Dan is an amazing DJ and provided excellent guidance before the wedding and amazing services during the wedding. We had a wedding with 30 guests outdoors with the ceremony and reception in different locations.

From the planning process, he provided us suggestions for how to approach a small wedding, the best way to light the area at night and a format was was appropriate for our entire family. The lighting for the rooftop reception was better than I could have imagined. It provided a sleek look with the perfect amount of light and effects.

The set up for the ceremony was great with perfectly timed music. I cannot thank Dan and his assistant Allie for being versatile as they were with the timing of the reception as everything was running behind because of other vendors. They were adaptable to the continuously changing situations and on the fly adjustments I had to make to timing around cake cutting, speeches and special dance songs.

If it was possible to give Dan 10 stars I would. There is absolutely nothing I would change. Dan & Allie, thank you for making our night amazing. We are extremely grateful.

Thank you,
From Jess, Will & Mikayla.

Consistently the Best

Dr. DJ Paulish did our 40-year and 50-year high school reunions. He worked closely with the reunion committee each time and coordinated each event down to the minute. We provided him a huge list of our favorite music and he brought all the genres, including the Spanish hits from back in the day.
His equipment was excellent and included extra microphones for our MC, raffles, contests, trivia, and other random announcements.
His fee was extremely reasonable and was at the lower end of the price spectrum for his competitors.
Anybody can buy some equipment and call themselves a DJ, but Dr. Dan Paulish distinguishes himself from the rest with his professionalism and knowledge. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. DJ Paulish for all your DJ needs. You will not be disappointed.

We Highly Recommend DJ Dan

We never meet until our wedding day, we couldn’t have asked for a better entertainment experience for our wedding than Dr. D.J. Paulish Entertainment, LLC. Dan and Mike from start to finish, everything was handled with professionalism, energy, and genuine care for making our day unforgettable.

The music selection was absolutely perfect—every song felt thoughtfully chosen and kept the dance floor full all night long. They did an amazing job reading the crowd and adjusting the vibe in real time, which made such a difference in keeping over 100 guests engaged and having fun.

Communication leading up to the wedding was smooth and stress-free. Dan is very organized, every detail we discussed was executed exactly as planned, and they went above and beyond to make sure everything flowed seamlessly—from introductions to special moments throughout the day.

What really stood out was the level of enthusiasm and personality they brought to the event. It never felt “cookie-cutter”—it felt tailored specifically to us, which made our wedding even more special.

We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music and overall atmosphere were. If you’re looking for a DJ/entertainment company that is reliable, fun, and truly committed to making your event memorable, we highly recommend Dr. D.J. Paulish Entertainment, LLC.

Couldn’t Have Pulled Off Our Wedding Without Him!

Dr. DJ Paulish Entertainment’s services exceeded my expectations at my wedding! It was also a great value, especially since I was on a budget. He handled setup for both my ceremony and reception, served as the MC, and played great music that kept everyone dancing all night long. He also provided dance floor lighting and uplighting around the reception room, which helped set the perfect mood.

Most importantly, he helped me plan the timeline for my ceremony and reception, kept the events on track, and ensured everything ran smoothly. He was also very responsive throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a professional and reliable DJ!

Great dj/mc

Dan was wonderful to work with. His professionalism was very much appreciated as he took his time to adjust our timeline as needed. He took his job seriously and always aimed to please. He was also very friendly and responsive. The music for the cocktail hour was perfect and he got the party going later in the evening. Many family members that normally don’t dance, got on the dance floor to boogie. We highly recommend him services for your wedding or other event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Dan Paulish is great at what he does and goes the extra mile to make sure his events go smoothly. He visited our wedding venue in advance to familiarize himself with our property and make sure he would have everything he needed the day of the wedding. He considered climate changes, surrounding areas, and the client's wishes. It was a pleasure working with him as I knew he would go above and beyond for our mutual wedding client! I look forward to working with him again soon. -Laura Estrada, Sales Coordinator at Ocean Sky Hotel and Resort, Wedding Venue
