10/10 Wedding DJ!

We were lucky to find Eric (downtown funk DJs), as we were planning our upstate NY wedding all the way from Ohio at the time. From start to finish, Eric made the process extremely easy for us and helped us throw the best party of our lives!!
He is organized and responsive, yet flexible and accommodating to changes. He proactively worked with our photographer extremely well on the day of, to make sure everything flowed perfectly. It was very nice to be able to leave the timeline in their hands so we could enjoy the night instead of worrying about time.
Throughout the night, he made sure to periodically check in with us to make sure he was playing a good mix of our favorites, instead of just going off of a set list of music. He worked really well off of our playlists (which is a feat in and of itself considering our music taste is all over the place- from Bad Bunny to Metallica to Panic! At the Disco and bluegrass) and kept the dance floor packed!
His set-up is sleek and modern and he works well with any space. He arrived early and was ready to go on time without any needing any additional equipment from us. He is kind and professional and throws an awesome party!
Our favorite moment was turning around and seeing him jamming at the DJ booth doing the full choreography to *NSYNC’s “Bye Bye Bye”! 10/10 DJ and person! Would not hesitate to book

Great Music, Packed Dance Floor!!

Working with Eric was fantastic! We had a blast and we were on the dance floor all night long at our wedding. He is so easy to work with and friendly! He keeps everything super organized so we really just could show up and enjoy the night! When we interviewed with other DJs we just felt like we were just another client. Eric took the time to get to know us and hear our story, which we really appreciated. You cannot go wrong in working with him! He will keep the dance floor full and will keep the hits coming! Everyone had a great time and we got compliments all night! 10/10 would recommend!!

Wedding Review!

Hiring Eric for our wedding ceremony and reception was the best decision we could have made! He created a seamless timeline and totally put my mind at ease; everything went smoothly and could not have been more perfect! His ability to read the crowd and his transitions between songs were also spot on. The dance floor was packed all night, and we received so many compliments! If you are looking for someone who is professional, organized and truly loves what he does then you have found your DJ! We would HIGHLY recommend Eric!

Highly recommend!! The DJ makes a wedding reception!

Eric was amazing!!! Zack and I got married under a tent in my parents backyard on 9/5/26. Prior to our wedding, we had a series of phone calls. He was very accommodating to our busy schedules. He was super helpful in figuring out a timeline and very organized in adding every detail that we wanted. On the day of the wedding, my wedding coordinator had great things to say about him. He helped keep our timeline moving so us as the bride and groom didn’t even have to think about it. He was also super attentive to when we felt our first dance and parent dances needed to be cut short and smoothly transitioned to the next. His announcements for us and the bridal party were perfect. He also helped us to coordinate a “photo dash” which was ALOT of people to move but it went quick and easy. He played all my requested songs but also filled in some great songs that kept the vibes going. Everyone danced the entire time! The dance floor was constantly packed! His transitions between songs were also perfect!! Highly recommend!!

Downtown Funk DJs is THE BEST!!

Eric with Downtown Funk DJs made our wedding day SO special!! He guided us through the planning process and timeline months before our wedding, which made us feel so confident and prepared going into the big day.

It was thundering and lightning on our wedding day, and our entire outdoor ceremony had to be moved last minute to a chapel up the street. Eric handled everything so calmly and professionally. He was incredibly prepared, adapted to every change without missing a beat, and was by our side through it all. He kept the day moving seamlessly, making sure we stayed on schedule for our entrances, first dances, and everything in between, which took so much stress off our shoulders.

And once the party started… WOW. Our guests had the absolute best time! We received so many compliments about Eric. He read the room perfectly, played the best music, and kept the dance floor packed until it was time for us to leave. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. If you’re looking for someone who is organized, professional, adaptable, and knows how to throw an unforgettable party, Eric is your guy. We would recommend him to ANYONE!

Exceptional

One of the best indicators of a great wedding is the DJ performance..  Let’s face it….an excellent DJ can make or break a wedding.  We were truly blessed in booking Eric.  He knew the ins and outs of the whole wedding day….he kept us on schedule, he researched the venue ahead of time, he kept the dance floor packed with guests.  The list goes on and on of how he made our day so special.  We highly recommend his services.  The Photo Booth was a big hit with our guests, and he brought so much fun to the party.  He loves what he does, and it shows!

Highly Recommend

Eric did a wonderful job with our wedding. He’s a great listener and responds quickly. If you’re looking for someone to keep your guests dancing all night, look no further! His packages are more expensive than some of the DJs we looked at, but the value more than made up for it (for us at least) when you factored in travel, ceremony + cocktail hour coverage, and floor lighting. My husband and I were very happy with our choice.

Phenomenal DJ

There are so many great things to say about Eric as a DJ. He was not only a DJ but also helped to wrangle the bridal crew and guests prior to the ceremony. Eric was willing to work with us on all aspects of our day. He was prompt at communicating with us prior to the wedding day and on wedding day. We had an outdoor ceremony- no problem. We didn't want to do the garter and bouquet toss so we did a koozie toss instead to start off the party part of the reception. Eric was in and gave great ideas on how we could really get everyone ready to party and dance. We are an "older" bride and groom which led to an even older majority of guests at the reception. I was slightly worried that would impact our reception. I was pleasantly surprised when it did not impact our reception at all. Eric kept everything moving smoothly at the ceremony and at the reception. The cocktail hour playlist was SPOT ON!!!! We included a few slow dance songs in our must have list. Eric was played a mix of those songs that kept them with a good dance beat but you could also snuggle up with your dance partner to enjoy a slower pace. I can't say enough positive things about Eric. He was a MAJOR part of our day being absolutely perfect. Don't hesitate in hiring Eric for your reception or any party you might be having.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
