Amazing DJ! He helped make our day very special!

John was an amazing DJ for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and also our reception on our wedding in February. He gave us great guidance and feedback as well as ideas we wouldn’t have thought of. He collaborated well with our other vendors and our venue and kept the entire day running very smoothly. His attention to detail and confirming the correct version of each song that was played Was huge as we had some special elements implemented into our day that were very specific.

We would 100% recommend him for any occasion and grateful that he was a part of our special day. Thank you John for everything!

Incredible DJ!

John was extremely professional. I was stuck on some songs and he gave some awesome recommendations I wouldn’t have thought of. My guests all raved about the music selection and flow of the night. He really did a great job keeping people engaged and reading the room. He is such a genuinely nice person and his crew was great too! Would absolutely recommend him!

DJ by CJ was awesome to work with! They were kind, flexible with changes, and easy to communicate with. They are more than happy to work with and accommodate any other vendors (bands/singers) that the couple wanted. They have an assistant with them at all times to help coordinate entrances. Everything runs smoothly and the music always gets guests up on their feet dancing! My bride's have nothing but great things to say!
