amazing DJ!

Everyone should hire Darby Events! We had so many guests come up to us to let us know how amazing he was. He read them room so well and made sure we never left the dance floor! Also, my father and I did a choreographed fast routine that required the mash up of a couple songs and certain parts removed and he did AMAZING! I highly recommend Darby Events for your next event! He won't disappoint.

Would be 10 stars if the rating scale went up that high

Unbelievable experience working Stephen. We were lucky enough to work with Stephen for our wedding at the Creek Club. Everyone is still talking about how great he was keeping everyone on the floor and dancing the day of! Just as importantly, his input leading up to the wedding on songs, timeline, and planning took a ton of the stress away and made the day of absolutely perfect.

Like the title says a 10/10 experience and was a pleasure working with such a great person.

Best Night of Our Lives

Stephen was an absolutely incredible DJ! From start to finish, the energy on the dance floor was next level. He was able to read our crowd perfectly at our wedding and kept the dance floor packed all night long. The transitions were flawless, and the music was a perfect mix of crowd-pleasers and fresh hits. With the mix in of the piano it was more than just a DJ playing a setlist, it was an experience! Also communication with Stephen leading up to the day was always easy and enjoyable. 10/10 recommend Darby Events!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
