Best day of my LIFE!

DJ Phil was amazing! We had a special “grand entrance” and he was so accommodating even through the technical error. Also an AMAZING body language reader, during dances I was able to signal so easily when to stop them!
His prices are more than fair, great communicator and genuinely a good person. Thank you DJ Phil for helping create the memories of mine and my husbands perfect wedding!!

DJ Phil Made Our Night Truly Magical

We truly can’t say enough good things about our wedding experience with DJ Phil. From the first conversation to the very last dance, they were a dream to work with. Kind, professional, and completely in tune with the energy we wanted for our day. They helped create a joyful, unforgettable atmosphere that kept everyone smiling and dancing all night long. It meant the world to us to feel so supported and celebrated. We’re endlessly grateful!

Hands down the Best DJ

DJ Phil was great to work with leading up to the wedding, taking the time to understand our vision and preferences for the event . He was responsive, reliable, and made sure everything ran smoothly on our big day. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience! If you are looking for someone to bring the party to your wedding or event , look no further than DJ Phil! Five starts isn’t enough, we’d give him ten starts if we could! Thank you, DJ Phil!☺️

He kept the party going!

DJ Phil is a sweet and wonderful guy who helped make our wedding so special! He has a very great and well organized planning sheet that made everything so easy. The ceremony and various events went off without a hitch and everyone LOVED his music choices during party time! He knew how to read the crowd and keep things going. At the end of the night he congratulated my husband and I on our big day and he was just so genuine. I highly recommend him!

Brittany's Wedding

In my initial conversations with Phil I told him that I believed that music can be transformative if it meets the moment. If done well, the music plays a huge role in the overall quality and enjoyment of any event. He immediately agreed.

There were several distinct segments in the wedding and we wanted each segment to have it's own special and appropriate vibe. For this reason, we completed the guide provided by Phil but also curated our own songs for the dinner reception, the dance music and the exit music.

As Phil got to know me as we planned the event, I mentioned that I wanted a particular song from that sampled Genius of Love by the Tom Tom Club. I explained that the drummer and base player in The Tom Tom Club were married but originally musicians in The Talking Heads. Moreover, that I really enjoyed The Talking Heads and was one of their first fans because they went to Rhode Island School of Design and I also went to college in RI. Phil asked me if I wanted to add any of The Head's music to my playlist and I said that my wife wasn't a fan - so no. I was so surprised when Phil handed me the mic for my toast as Father of the Bride because he introduced me to all the guests with the song Burning Down the House playing. Apparently, and without my knowledge, Phil asked my wife during the reception if it would be ok for him to introduce me with that song. Of course she agreed and it absolutely made my night! Perfect song, at the perfect moment!

You won't ever find a better DJ for your event. I can't recommend Phil highly enough and will always consider him to be my new fast friend.

The BEST in the area!

If you’re in the greater Orlando area and looking for a DJ, then Phil is your guy. I’ve been to numerous weddings where the DJ was of lower quality and it was obvious. This is NOT the case with Phil. From top to bottom, his service is unparalleled. Everything sounded crisp and clear the entire night, his emcee skills made the night flow smoothly and his music selection/recommendations were perfect for every phase of the wedding. Get him on your wedding vendor list ASAP because he is booked out for a reason!

Fantastic job overall

Phil is so great at what he does! His music choices are perfect, his options are varied, and the best part is that he's affordable. He even took a video of our wedding and made a fun little dance video, truly above and beyond service. Thank you Phil!

Flexible, Responsive, Timely, Honest, Communicative

DJ Phil was incredible! Starting from his music package (that I didn't know I needed to help plan my day!) to his day of flexibility when I changed things last minute (HAHA), DJ Phil was there, on top of it, and made me feel comfortable knowing that what we planned and asked him to do was going to get done and done well. His lighting was beautiful and added that extra "something" to our reception! You can't go wrong with DJ Phil!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
