Fabulous experience with a large Hindu wedding. 10/10 recommend!

Jay was the best planner we could have asked for. He was truly a joy to work with and went above and beyond to make our vision a reality! Jay has decades of experience in the wedding industry and it really shows - he guided us effortlessly through every step of the way, leveraged his industry contacts to our advantage, and even helped us navigate discussions with our families along the way. His day-of team was also exceptional and took care of every single one of our needs, even the ones we didn’t know we needed. Jay and his team seamlessly navigated every potential crisis (which were few and far between, due to the meticulous planning!) with ease. If we had to do plan our wedding all over again, we would choose to work with Jay ten times out of ten!

5 out of 5 stars!!!

Jay and his team are professionals. He knows all the pieces that need to come together for a successful event and makes things happen. He made our wedding look, sound, and run great. From planning beforehand to MCing at our reception, he had the details of each step covered and everything was so easy for us. Many guests gave us compliments on the party that were due to Jay's work. I would rush to hire him again for any other event in the future. Do yourself a huge favor and book Jay for your wedding!

A true professional!!

Jay Rana is an industry veteran and expert. He made the process so seamless for us from beginning to end. We were pretty open about our preferences and didn't have one specific vision, and Jay helped us structure our program and guided us every step of the way. His professionalism is only accentuated by how he makes you feel at ease and in good hands throughout the entire process. He expertly worked with our planner and hotel coordinator directly as well and we didn't have to worry about any of the logistical details. All of our friends and family raved about how Jay lit up the dance floor! He follows the vibes and gets everyone hype and engaged, feeling the crowd and driving the energy. One thing that we really wanted was a high-energy reception dance floor and Jay helped this dream come true and beyond; he also provided the same great experience at the Sangeet and Baraat (we didn't have a dholi so we were relying only on Jay to hype up the crowd at the Baraat). Thank you so much Jay for giving us an incredible experience as our DJ!!

He Could Inspire a Stone to Dance

Words cannot describe how happy we are with the work of Jay Rana and his team. For our 3 day Hindu/Jewish hybrid wedding, he kept the party going. His team understands how to scan the crowd and select a song accordingly. Additionally, he was able to connect us with several musicians who were all high quality and came at reasonable prices.

Most importantly, he was extremely responsive. He usually got back to us within minutes. Additionally, he helped guide us through the process of selecting songs for critical moments of the wedding.

I have nothing bad to say about the experience Jay Rana provided us. He was perfect.

The best wedding entertainment team you could hire!

Jay Rana and his team were absolutely fantastic! My husband and I had been planning our wedding reception since April 2019, and due to the pandemic, we postponed our reception till Sept 2021. Jay was so wonderful in supporting all the five times I had to change the reception date, and especially with helping me plan out a perfect and unique schedule, and style of events that I didn't have much previous experience with, what with this being my first wedding and all!

He was always so quick to respond to any of the million questions I'd have, and helped me so much than he probably realizes! Truly a very talented all-rounder in the wedding entertainment industry!

On the day of the reception, him and his team were absolutely phenomenal, and definitely brought it! I didn't think his service could get even more amazing, but it did - the music, the vibe, the energy, everything was insane! So many guests took down his info to hire them for their events, and my Maid of Honor hired Jay Rana Events for her upcoming wedding reception!!!

Thank you again so much Jay, we could not have made a better choice on hiring you and will definitely do so if any opportunities come up in the future!

Amazing and consistent communication and flexibility

Jay was the best decision we could have made for our wedding! My fiancé and I were hesitant about having a traditional Indian wedding and he took that into consideration and worked with us to make sure we were comfortable with the day's events and all the moving pieces while also making sure our parents needs were met. He responded promptly every time any of us reached out to him in the past 8 months and made himself available to us 24/7 for questions and support. He was respectful the entire way and always received our constant questions and type A personalities with a smile and prompt answers. We all enjoyed a stress-free wedding weekend because of his hard work and professionalism. Thank you Jay!

Jay is exceptional

Jay was, and is, without fail, one of the best things about our wedding and reception. We spoke to him in Feb 2020, and as I'm sure you can imagine, all hell broke loose by March for our October 2020 wedding - and the reception, which got moved from the wedding day to March, then May, then a full year after the wedding...all of which Jay helmed. By the time the reception came around, our wedding planner was book for the day and Jay seamlessly took on the role of planner, coordinating with vendors and ensuring that our day was smooth, full of laughter and great emcee'ing, and that people never left the dance floor. His dhol player was a HIGHLIGHT of the dance floor, and Jay's attention to detail (particularly the way he choreographs entrances) was actually a surprise to me too: I didn't expect to be surrounded by our loved ones when I walked in, but he had everyone on their feet and it was one of the most memorable moments of my life.

Jay remains a friend to this day - he checks in, still shares in our relationship, and has earned not only my loyalty as a customer but as a friend after working with him. Hiring him will be an amazing add to your wedding.
