DJ Dale

DJ Dale was an absolute delight to work with every step of the way. He was the perfect balance of easy-going and fun, while still being professional and ensuring we felt comfortable and prepared every step of the way. He is super hands-on (if you need it like we do!) with the planning process and has a detailed packet to help guide couples on what they need. Day-of, he really helped everyone enjoy the vibes and have an amazing time - AND he managed to play most of my 290382398 ridiculous song requests :) Value-wise, DJ Dale was a GREAT deal and we felt that we got so much more than ~just~ music and an emcee. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a great DJ for their event!

DJ Dale was tremendous. He was professional and courteous in every interaction, he gave us a play-by-play on how sound would work both during the wedding and afterward, he had easy templates to fill out for playlists and which songs to play in which moments - he was fantastic. As an added bonus, he brought a photo booth that the children (and adults!) had a tremendous time with!

Extra shoutout because I asked him to record our wedding ceremony, and he pointed me to the exact piece of equipment that would work with his setup, and he was able to record the sound from the whole thing.

Additional props because we went back and forth a few times on a detail the last few days before the wedding, we kept emailing him about it, and he was tremendously patient and professional with us the whole way through.

Next time you get married in the Finger Lakes, look up DJ Dale!

Can I give 6 out of 5 stars? DJ Dale was recommended to us by my husband's parents after they went to a different wedding and loved DJ Dale. We are so glad we trusted their recommendation because DJ Dale was the best! He was an absolute pleasure to work with; he's friendly, fun, professional, and experienced. When we first met him virtually, his energy was infectious. In subsequent meetings, he was organized and knowledgeable and asked all the right questions. He did a great job of striking the balance between letting us curate the vibe/experience we wanted and chiming in with his expertise and advice when warranted. His communication throughout our wedding season was excellent and he was always responsive and easy to reach. I had him create a custom music mix for my father-daughter dance and he went back and forth with me until it was perfect. On the day of, he did an excellent job of sticking to our projected timeline and introducing everyone. All of the songs he played were fantastic and, in addition to playing our "must play," he did a great job curating the rest of the mix according to our, crowd, preferences, and energy of the moment. I had guests tell me all night that DJ Dale was doing a phenomenal job. Stand-up guy, expert at his craft, I couldn't recommend him more.

So happy to work with Dale on my wedding day! He was very professional and on top of everything!! Thanks Dale!!

Such an easy choice we would make again! talking to Dale was like talking to our wedding planner. He helped us understand the flow of our own wedding and got us from completely clueless about what we need to do to feeling excited rather than anxious. Hire this man for your events!

We had a great experience with DJ Dale as our wedding DJ! From the very first meeting he was prepared and he was extremely communicative throughout the whole process. We can't say enough good things about how happy we were with him!

We are so glad that we chose Dale as our wedding DJ! We had a few calls with Dale ahead of the wedding to discuss the plan for the wedding - he was incredibly well-organized and knowledgeable. Dale ensured that everything went smoothly and our guests had such a blast on the dance floor! Dale also checked in with my husband and I to make sure we were able to eat and get moments to ourselves, which was very appreciated. Dale and his team are outstanding and worked so seamlessly with our other all-star vendors. Very grateful to him for making our day special.

Dale was incredible from start to finish! We met multiple times prior to the wedding to ensure that our ceremony and reception were as we wanted it - and he delivered 10-fold! He kept the ceremony moving, the sound quality on the bluetooth microphones was fantastic, they were also perfect for the individual speeches during dinner, and he kept the dance floor bumping all night. We constantly have family and friends who attended our wedding talking about how great of a job he did. Highly recommend!

DJ Dale helped make our wedding an unforgettable night! While I began the planning process, I quickly realized a DJ does much more than just play music. They are an integral part of the flow of the entire evening. DJ Dale helped plan my timeline, gave me suggestions, provided an awesome light and sound set up and of course, played AMAZING music all night long! He even provided sound and equipment for a live musician that we had during the ceremony and cocktail hour. He is your one stop shop for wedding entertainment! DJ Dale was very communicative and organized throughout the whole process. If you want an experienced DJ who will make your wedding everything you have ever dreamed of, he's your guy!!

Attentive, professional, well-prepared, and so kind throughout the process.
