Such a great experience!

Jay was amazing! He came recommended by our venue coordinator and she was spot on with it! He was professional and made sure every detail was perfect. I had some untraditional requests and he just went right along with it. I’m really happy that we chose to work with him!

Jay Was Great & Helped Keep The Party Going ( & On Track)

Jay was such a pleasure to work with for our wedding. I feel like I was rather demanding in terms of picking all of the songs out ahead of time (including all entrances and various music queues) and Jay handled it professionally and most importantly he got it done perfectly.
We had some pretty major weather-related hiccups and he rolled with the punches.
He delivered exactly what he promised and our wedding was great thanks in no small part because of him!
He was willing to stay later that we first planned and we got to dance well into the night.

5 Stars highly recommend!

Our wedding was April 27, 2019. We planned it in eight weeks. We were able to get in touch with Jay and confirm our date immediately, which was a relief considering the short notice. He even changed some of his plans for the day of our wedding to open up availability. From then on, he communicated with us to make sure all our questions and concerns were addressed. He sent us recommendations for songs and sent us a form to complete to keep us all on track and on the same page. The day of the wedding we had some last minute changes that Jay was able to incorporate and handled it extremely well without stres or worry. Everyone was on the dance floor the entire night. It wasn't more than we could have asked for, 5 stars for sure.

Jay did our wedding at Rehoboth Beach and did a phenomenal job. He was on time, had all the proper equipment, professional, and was able to make all of our dreams and wishes come true. He was able to make every request we made, happen and come to life. Definitely recommend his services!

I can’t say enough about D-Jay Papas! Very professional, talented and easy to work with. He played music for my ceremony music and my entire reception. He also brought up-lighting which lit up the entire tent and really made such a difference the night of & in pictures as well. Jay kept everything running smooth and TIMELY! He even helped me with my music selection. Looking back there is not even one thing I would change about our big day. I highly recommend his services!

I have worked with Jay Pappas for many years and he is one of the best!!

Golden Apple Caterers Golden Apple Caterers Wedding Caterers

Jay Pappas of D-Jay's Music for all Occasions is always professional, friendly, detail orientated and very dependable. On one occasion (wedding reception) a non-recommended DJ that the couple had hired decided not to show up because his car had died and never even told the couple he couldn't make it. So, Golden Apple Caterers called Jay Pappas of D-Jay's Music to see if he was available, lucky for us, he was! He arrived within the hour, got the bridal party together, announced them in, had their first dance cued up and off we went!! Do not trust your event to DJ's that are not recommended by other Wedding Professionals, always ask for references and also remember that the music is a very big part of your reception!! Call Jay today!!
