About

Congradulations on your engagement! DJ Jaz Music and Entertainment knows that planning a wedding can be an overwhelming experience...that's where I come in. No two weddings are the same so I customize the entertainment planning to fit your needs. I listen to you, find out your vision of a perfect wedding reception, and help you make it happen. You decide how I can assist you in making your dream a reality. With my experience and advice by your side, I can save you valuable time and money.

Looking for that professional touch on your wedding day, DJ Jaz provides one-on-one counseling meetings with the couple to plan the most important part of the wedding reception. Music selections, announcements and special requests - every detail is coordinated and reviewed to meet your expectations. A professional presentation on your wedding day is a signature trademark. No gimmicks or unnecessary theatrics, as the center of attention should be the bride and not the DJ.

Danced all night long!

We are so thankful to Jerry for saving our wedding. Our original DJ got COVID at the last minute and Jerry stepped in literally the day before our wedding. He learned our whole schedule that we had spent months planning and executed it flawlessly. We had a choreographed first dance and he hit all the right queues. Even better, he kept everyone on the dance floor the whole night. We even had a second group of people dancing at the back of the room because there wasn't enough space on the dance floor. Thank you Jerry for saving the day!

Jerry is amazing!

Jerry is both an amazing person AND DJ! The planning process was super easy and straightforward and he truly listened to what we wanted while guiding us with fantastic wealth of knowledge. Trust his mashups - they were epic. All of our guests commented on his infectious energy and his fantastic playlist. The dance floor was full the entire night and even people who might not otherwise dance were having themselves a great time. Highly recommend Jerry

We highly recommend DJ Jerry!

DJ Jerry did an amazing job at our wedding!

He was very professional and met with us several times leading up to the wedding. He also did a site visit in advance (our wedding was at a private residence) to make sure that we were on the same page and that everything was in place for the wedding. He showed up well in advance of our event and everything went very smoothly.

DJ Jerry listened carefully to our taste in music and was able to exceed our expectations. It is no easy feat to work in old Italian music, reggaeton, and old school boy bands at one event, but he did such a good job. We could tell that he is really passionate about music. One litmus test is how many people are on the dance floor – ours was full all night! He even played for an extra hour when everyone wanted to continue dancing!

We highly recommend DJ Jerry!

I was worried when deciding to go the DJ route for our wedding, my fear being some cheesy person manning the PA. I am a huge music nut, so getting this part right was key. Jerry Bazata is an incredibly detail oriented and friendly person. He has the experience to read the crowd well and roll with the punches (we had to change up some of our timing and Jerry was the one to coordinate all of that with myself and the staff at the venue who were serving dinner).

Jerry also goes the extra mile and finds those exact songs you are looking for, especially those that are special (first dance, announcing songs for parents and the couple, etc). My groom and I faked the crowd out on our first dance, by playing a slow song and then heading into a fun and uptempo tune for our actual dance. Jerry was able to mash those up perfectly and it was one of those great moments. He is a great listener and if you are one of the lucky couples to get him, he will make your day that much more special. Thanks Jerry!

Jerry was excellent, the entire day we felt like we were in good hands. When things needed to be shifted, he was able to move on a dime, and managed to keep us all on the same page. When dancing began, he kept the dance floor hopping, and at the end of it all, because of the close personal relationship we'd built with Jerry, he actually capped it off by thanking us, and wishing us well, which was a nice and unexpected touch. I don't think it was planned, it came from the heart, which meant a lot to Priscilla and I. Thank you Jerry! One way or another, I know we will work with you again!

Dj Jerry was incredible to work with! We met before the wedding and he walked me through everything I needed to know! I live in Texas and my wedding was in Maine so while planning a wedding across the country is difficult enough, Jerry put me at ease and assured me that everything would go off without a hitch! And he was right! The right DJ was a priority on my list for my wedding, if the music doesn't get people in the mood to have fun and dance then( in my eyes ) the reception would be just ordinary. I interviewed about 7 other DJs in the area and the DJ Jerry came out on top! From his state of the art DJ equipment, uplighting, and best of all, his personality! People were on the dance floor all night, we all wished the night would never end!! I highly recommend Dj Jerry for your wedding needs!!

DJ Jaz was unbelievably professional. He was very easy to work with from the first day that I met him until the day of our wedding. Jerry arrived very early to set up, prep and test everything out before the wedding began. My Husband and I had Jerry play the music for our ceremony and the reception and he did an exceptional job. There were times when we could not think of a song to be played at a particular time during the reception such as the wedding party's grand entrance into the reception and Jerry always had excellent ideas, which was because he knew what my Husband and I wanted! We made it clear from the beginning that our families LOVE to dance and well dance they did until well into the early morning! You would be doing yourself a disservice if you opted not to go with DJ Jaz! Choose Jerry to host your next event, and you will be more than pleasantly surprised!!!

I cannot say enough great things about Jerry! I knew that the DJ was one of the most important parts of a wedding as they control the entire night but I was blown away by Jerry's experience and talent. He made the night flow smoothly while making sure the guests/wedding party had the time of their lives! He was very responsive to any emails/questions I had and took the time to go over the entire night several times to ensure I felt comfortable with everything (including a meeting at 9 pm the night before)!. He had great solutions/ideas to any problems we ran into and made our wedding perfect! Thank you so much Jerry! :)

Everyone (especially my husband and I) were so impressed with the outcome of how many people participated in dancing. Dj jazz really made the wedding come to life and did such a great job at involving everyone and making it such an enjoyable and lively wedding! He was such a great help with helping me incorporate a last minute surprise dance for my husband during the reception and it turned out wonderful!! We were so confident with leaving many of the decisions and ideas up to him for the sequence and arrangements of the whole event and it was so nice to know we could count on him really delivering!! I can't express enough how much we really appreciated his professionalism and expertise!! He was truly phenomenal, such a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to anybody for any event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
