Dart Collective did an absolutely incredible job DJ-ing our wedding this past month at Brooklyn Botanic Garden. Working with Sam and his team was so easy from start to finish, and we were able to put our complete trust in them to execute our event flawlessly. The dance floor was packed all night and everyone had such a fabulous time. We've gotten so many compliments on the music from family and friends. If you're planning a wedding, we truly cannot recommend them, and specifically our DJ Ashley, enough.

"We cannot recommend The Dart Band enough! They performed at our wedding, and they truly exceeded every expectation. The mix of songs they played was absolutely perfect—they kept the energy high and had our dance floor packed from the very first song to the last. Our guests of all ages were up and dancing all night long, and we are still getting compliments on how fun the music was. We couldn't be happier with their performance and professionalism!"

Can’t say enough amazing things about the Dart team, Sam and JD! After
just one call with Sam, he immediately got our vibe and intention for our wedding reception and connected us to JD. We sent the Dart team our favorite dance songs and day of JD delivered!!!! He creatively spun the entire night and created our most perfect dance party - mix of funk, disco, edm and house. We had a wide range of ages at our party and every single one of them were on the dance floor. Would recommend this team to everyone and anyone looking to create a fun and unique vibe!!!!!

Dart did music and DJing for our wedding this spring. They were great to work with, professional, chose great music across cocktail hour and dancing (shout out to Jordan!). We loved it and our guests were very complimentary. Highly recommend working with Dart.

We worked with Dart Collective for our Brooklyn wedding and could not have loved them more. There are a plethora of options in NYC for DJs but I’m so happy we went with Dart. They brought uplighting and were able to find a pianist to play our ceremony. It was so easy to plan every aspect with them - literally one stop shopping.I’ve been to enough bar mitzvahs and quinceañeras as a child to be permanently scarred by party DJs, but Dart is everything you want a wedding music team to be - effortlessly cool and completely dialed into the vibe and tone of the night. DJ Will absolutely crushed it. Weeks later, people are still telling us it was the best music they’ve ever danced to at a wedding. Our only complaint is that the party had to end. We’re already trying to think of excuses to throw another event just so we can hire them again.

Incredibly fortunate that we were able to find Dart Collective for our wedding (April 2025). The team took all of our details, likes/dislikes, and direction and turned it into a unique musical ensemble, including DJ, vocalist, saxophone and trumpet player with a playlist that we curated. Additionally, they provided the emceeing, audio for the ceremony, mics for all the speeches, and as importantly, they all came looking beautiful and happy.
We went with Dart because they were able to play the songs we wanted, whereas many other wedding bands gave us a "list of songs" that they will be playing.. Their look&feel is very modern and clean.
Thank you Dart team for bringing us the best of the best, and going above and beyond to make our wedding filled with so much dancing, happiness, and beautiful songs. Keep on jamming!

If you want to make sure that the vibes are right and the guests have fun, you should definitely work with Dart!!

They were super responsive and professional, listened to what we wanted, and connected us with the perfect DJ to match our vision (Eddie).

The communications and prep before the event made sure everything happened according to plan -- not a single moment of stress. They were timely, ready to go, and a true pleasure to work with.

We had the most fun, exciting, engaged, and lively dance floor for over 5 hours -- the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner also were perfect. I would 100% recommend them!!

We went to a bunch of open houses while we were looking for vendors, and it always felt like the DJs were trying to make themselves loud and center stage, rather than being complementary to the main event. When we found Hayden with Dart Collective, it took us a few minutes to realize "wait, the music isn't in-your-face loud, but every track has been a banger."

The team was awesome to work with and was always willing to answer our questions. On the day of the wedding, Hayden and his assistant showed up and set up without any questions or fuss, just a quick hello as we were walking by. The music for every part of the event was perfectly matched to the vibe that we wanted, even when we didn't know what we wanted! We got a ton of compliments on the music from our guests, and the dance floor was jumping the entire event. Everything went super smoothly and Hayden really helped make our big day stress-free!

We had very specific wants. We had specific playlists for the dj for dinner and reception, we wanted live singers for the ceremony and the happy hour. We wanted them to sing very specific songs. They not only hit every strange want we had, they exceeded our expectations. They also did it with the best attitude. Like happy to be a part of this wedding. They made us feel wonderful, the singers were exceptional, and the dj was phenomenal

We are so happy we worked with Dart Collective for our wedding day. Our DJ, Sam Houdek, was absolutely incredible! He was so easy to work with, brought the most amazing energy to the day, and clearly loves his craft so much. He expertly cut our first dance for us, has awesome taste in music (and understood ours so well), and curated the perfect vibe for our reception and after party. We got so many compliments on the music and comments on his infectious energy. We couldn't recommend enough!
