Epic DJ Service

DJ Shem was great! He worked with our budget and provided a great service. Our playlist was followed thoroughly and special requests were fulfilled. I would have never thought that anyone could get my husband to dance in public but he did. The reception was a vibe and everyone that came to the wedding loved the DJ. We would highly recommend.

Professional & Reliable

As a planner, trusting the vendors I recommend is important, and DJ Shem never disappoints. He brought the perfect blend of professionalism and energy to the weddings. He arrived early, was fully prepared, and executed each moment flawlessly; from ceremony music to reception energy. Every cue was on point, transitions were seamless, and he kept guests engaged and dancing throughout the night. My clients had an incredible experience, and we will happily book him for future events.

Best DJ with all the vibes and tunes! Thanks DJ Shem the Gr8

My husband and I are both African (Sierra Leonean) and needed a mix of traditional songs with new songs to cater to all the family members…. This DJ literally exceeded my expectations! He had the crowd moving and grooving the entire night. He’s great on the mic and kept the party amped up! He was a huge part to the success of the reception and party. I’m forever grateful and highly recommend him to any bride looking for a DJ to keep the wedding fun and entertaining!

Simply stupendous, professional, and flawless

I was referred to Shem by a very close friend of mine and the professionalism he exudes was unparalleled. He kept people on the dance floor all night and was able to artfully connect with all age groups. Phenomenally done.

DJ Shem kept the party vibes flowing. He was also a great MC for the whole ceremony.

DJ Shem was great. We felt as if he was part of the family by the end of the night.
Time did not permit us to get through all my 'must have' playlist, but we danced all night and had fun. He kept us laughing too with his witty humour.
It poured with rain and the dance floor was getting muddy. He grabbed a mob and kept it as dry as he could, averting any falls.
He even allowed our guest DJ from London play a set and they blended well together.
I would recommend DJ Shem to play at your wedding.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
