Best day ever

Alex and his team were our DJs for our November 9th 2024 wedding! It was amazing! We got compliments all night about the music! People were on the dance floor all night long. There was literally not one time during the night that the dance floor was empty. During the wedding planning process he made sure to answer all our question and respond to us the second we sent him a email or text, which we really appreciated. They made eveything a breeze.

Wholeheartedly Recommend

Alex from 3rd Shift was a phenomenonal vendor to work with. He took all of requests to heart and crafted a perfect soundtrack for our reception. He took the time to listen to our ideas and help them take shape, and he made sure all of the logistics went smoothly with announcements, speeches, etc. We had a small party, but the dance floor was full all night! Many of our guests commented on how awesome he was, and everyone had a great time. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend working with him!

Amazing Experience

My daughter hired 3rd Shift Djs for her wedding 5/16/25. Not only did Alex act as Dj he also was the officiant, provided sound and lighting and even had a 2 person instrumental perform for guests as well as play special selections for the bridal party and bride as they were escorted down the aisle. From the first phone call to the last dance Alex was amazing. So many people complimented us and inquired about his service further proving what a great choice we made. I highly recommend them for any celebration!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
