DJ Russ is the best!!! :)

DJ Russ Ginsberg was absolutely amazing and brought the energy to our wedding! From the moment the music started, the dance floor was packed all night long—especially when we pulled out the light-up cowboy hats! Russ did a fantastic job reading the crowd and playing the perfect mix of music, from upbeat pop hits to country classics and timeless favorites. His energy was infectious, and he kept everything running smoothly throughout the evening. Plus, he was a breeze to work with, making the entire process stress-free. If you want your guests dancing all night long, Russ is definitely the DJ to book!

The ONLY DJ for an event in the Keys

Russ is so good that it would be worth it to plan your event around his schedule. A terrific person and keeps the party going. The best I have ever seen at any event.

More than what we could have imagined!

Russ was our DJ/MC at our wedding in the Keys in November 2024. Music is SUCH an important part of our life as a couple, and we knew how important it would be on our wedding day. Russ was so flexible with us and patient with some of our whacky requests. Not only did he nail the specifics, but we couldn't get people off the dancefloor throughout the night. Our musical vision came to life on November 14th and we had the best night ever, large in part to the vibe Russ helped to create on the mic. The preparation leading up to the wedding solidified our choice ... I wasn't worried one bit that things wouldn't go as planned, but I wasn't prepared for how above and beyond it truly was. Russ, you don't charge enough! Thank you so much for the best experience.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
