Working with DJ Eli Freshmode was a masterclass in how to elevate a wedding atmosphere through music and collaboration. From the early planning stages to the final track of the night, Eli was an essential part of the team for this Rockland wedding. What stood out immediately was his intentionality; he didn’t just ask for a playlist, but helped the couple truly determine their taste by asking insightful, creative questions that dug deeper than just the standard favorite genres. He took the time to understand the vibe they wanted to cultivate, making the entire process feel curated rather than templated.

I was incredibly impressed by his robust vinyl spinning setup, which acted as both a visual centerpiece and a source of incredible sound quality. The warmth and soul of the vinyl added a layer of sophistication and "cool" that you just don't get with a standard digital rig. Beyond the equipment, Eli has an uncanny ability to read the energy of the room, knowing exactly when to keep things mellow and when to shift gears to keep the dance floor packed. He pivoted seamlessly throughout the evening and proved to be a fantastic collaborator, staying in sync with the timeline and communicating proactively to ensure the flow of the entire wedding was flawless. Eli is more than just a DJ—he’s a true professional who treats the soundtrack of a wedding like the art form it is.

We are so lucky that our planner recommended Eli Freshmode as our wedding DJ. He was exactly what we were hoping for; a non-cheesy vibe with great music that flows, but doesn’t feel like a playlist. During our calls, he was so easy to talk to and you can feel his love for music. He was encouraging in helping us curate our music style and had great recommendations. Guests loved that he was actually spinning vinyls and he read the vibe of the room perfectly. We were also grateful for the uplighting Eli offers, which added to the mood of the dance floor. When we had concerns about what kind of lighting effects we wanted, Eli went out of his way and surprised us with a fantastic solution. Eli traveled to our event, and his travel rates were very fair. We cannot recommend Eli enough and hope to have a reason to work with him again.

Eli is the absolute best DJ around, plus he's a super chill and nice guy you'll feel comfortable having at your wedding or event. He took the time to meet with us in person to go over everything and tell us what we needed to do, like pick processional and recessional songs. He then took our input for musical tastes and songs we liked and combined that with his own uncanny DJ abilities and vast musical knowledge to create what many have said was the most fun dance floor they've ever been on at a wedding. He kept the older crowd dancing right along with all the young folks all night. And he spins actual vinyl which is a rarity these days! I couldn't imagine our wedding with anyone but him DJing. Hire him now!

My husband and I got married in Sonoma on 04/28/2024, and we had the pleasure of working with DJ Eli. Eli is seriously one of the BEST wedding DJs you will ever find. Not only is he just such a joy to be around, but he knows how to get the party bumping. He took our vision of a fun and exciting reception and turned it into one of the funnest dance parties i've ever been a part of. We had every guest, young and old, on the dance floor partying and having the time of their lives. With Eli there was no stress, worries, or over explaining...he had amazing communication, knew what to do and how to do it, and made every detail work effortlessly. No matter what was going on, Eli was on top of it and was ready to roll with the punches. All of our guests are still commenting on how amazing our ceremony music was, and how much fun our reception was. Not only was his work just phenomenal, but Eli himself is just an amazing human and such a loving and caring person. If you want a fun reception that you and your guests will never forget....then you have to go with Mr.Eli FreshMode. If I could give him 100 stars, I would in a heart beat!

He helped the night go so smoothly and made each part of our wedding transition seamlessly into the next. He is also just such a cool and nice guy! We are so grateful to have found him and would recommend him to everyone! Thanks for making our big day so amazing!!

For starters, Eli is SO nice, easygoing, and had hands down the least stressful contract to understand out of all our vendors. He was so easy to work with, listened to and respected all of our requests, made great suggestions where necessary, and most importantly delivered on making our reception an awesome dance party!!! He was the perfect emcee for the night and also provided audio equipment for the ceremony, and great lights for the dance floor! We had a little apprehension pre-wedding day with regards to our live music vendor, but Eli assured us he would be ready to go with music if there were any issues. We felt totally at ease knowing Eli was there to take care of any hiccups. Eli delivered on all his promises and helped to give us the wedding night of our dreams! The dance floor was so fun we did not want the night to end!!!
