Best DJ in the 518

We highly recommend hiring Empire State Events for your wedding. Not only was the whole team receptive, professional, and attentive (Thaddeus, Kyle, and Wyatt) but we were able to completely customize our event from the enhancements down to what song to play when. We are still receiving compliments from our guests! 5 stars all around.

When we got engaged, the first vendor we booked was Wyatt with Empire State Events as our DJ.

When we got engaged, the first vendor we booked was Wyatt with Empire State Events as our DJ. Wyatt DJ’d at our brother and sister in law’s wedding and was phenomenal so the choice was an easy one for us.
Wyatt took multiple calls with us to ensure we were all on the same page regarding ceremony music, cocktail hour vibes, dinner music vibes and reception vibes. He listened to all our thoughts and was 100% on the same page with us.
Not only that, he was able to pull off the ultimate surprise for me when my bridesmaids and mom approached my now husband about doing a surprise performance to Super Trooper during our reception. My husband reached out to him separately to ask if he could add it to the song list but please not to let me know and somehow, they pulled it off.
Wyatt kept the energy levels up, our guests engaged and us enjoying the happiest day of our lives. He was a true pleasure to work with and honestly I wish everyone we know would book him as their DJ from now on just so we can hang out with him!
Thank you, Wyatt and team for an amazing amazing experience!

Must Hire!!!!!

I had the wonderful experience of having Empire State Events (and specifically DJ Wyatt) work my wedding this past weekend. I cannot say enough good things about the team. From the start, they work with you to see what your needs are. They have a large team, (all of which have music samples available to listen to), so you can find a DJ who may best match your style.

They offer you so much guidance along the way - as much or as little as you want. They will send you helpful info along the way as well as a very comprehensive planner so you can fill in all your important details - from your wedding party, to dress and suit inspirations, to helping you organize seating charts, gift trackers as well as to track your budget.

The ability to schedule unlimited calls is also wonderful. Often, the calls were really only a few minutes needed, but much more convenient than trying to explain yourself in a text or email when speaking verbally would probably make it much less complicated.

I had many musical visions for our wedding, and the Empire State Events team listened to every one of them and did what they could to make the dream come true -and they accomplished just that!

Highly recommend the team - very professional, very attentive and know how to get the job done!

10/10, amazing

We hired Empire State Events for our wedding and from the get go, they were a pleasure to work with. From the initial consultation to the Wedding Day, they were phenomenal and guided us throughout the entire process. They use an app that helps streamline each bit of our wedding day and collaboratively build an exceptional time. Thaddeus (DJ TSwag) and Corey were courteous, kind, fun, and remarkably professional. They even facilitated brining in a live saxophonist for the day as well, who was sensational. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for any DJ or party services. Thank you so much!!

Best DJ Ever

Our DJ, Justin, literally made our night. We were on the dance floor from start to finish, as were all of our guests. From the moment we booked, he was communicative, flexible, and made us excited for the wedding. I wish we could do it all again just to hear him DJ again!

DJ Gigabit Rocks!!!!!

We are so grateful to have had DJ Gigabit as our wedding DJ at Forest Lake Camp! From the very beginning of the planning process, they were professional, responsive, and organized—making everything so easy for us. On the big day, the sound quality was excellent, the mixes kept the energy going, and everything flowed seamlessly. One of the best parts was not having to worry about a thing—they handled it all perfectly. Thank you for helping make our day unforgettable! Highly recommend to any couple looking for a DJ who truly delivers.

Incredible!!!

ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! DJ TSWAG was amazing to work with, from planning to executing the perfect reception. Guests did not leave the dance floor. The open communication with both him and Empire State events also contributed to how amazing our wedding day was. 10/10 recommend.

Cody is the best!

We are speechless. We had several people through out the night point out that they have never been on a dance floor that long, and aside from getting our drinks refilled we didn’t leave it either!! Cody handled the energy perfectly and was the easiest, most organized, most on top of everything vendor we worked with. Truly could not recommend him and empire state events more. They are truly professionals!!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
