Highly recommend! Best DJ who goes above and beyond to make your day special!

Jeff was a major addition to our wedding! We had to drop our guest count from 400 to 50 due to covid. Because of this most guests tuned into our Facebook live. We had discussed with Jeff setting up a phone on a tripod at the back. Jeff made the experience for our virtual guest so amazing by walking around with the phone and showing all parts of the wedding. He did all of this without being in the way of our guests. If it weren’t for Jeff, our virtual guests would likely have not been able to hear or see. Additionally, he did a phenomenal job DJing our wedding. He blended two songs perfectly for my dance with my dad. He hosted the wedding shoe game for us. He also accommodated our varied taste in music perfectly. He was friendly, accommodating, went above and beyond, and was super helpful throughout the whole process. Jeff was recommended to us by a friend, and now we will recommend him to everyone we know who needs a DJ!!! Our wedding would not have been the same without Jeff!!

Kept the party going all night!

Soulful sounds (specifically Chris and Leo who were our DJ and MC for the night) kept us on the dance floor all night! They made sure our ceremony ran smoothly, and when it came time for reception, did not let up! There were crowd pleasing songs left and right and they kept the exact vibe I wanted the entire time! My consultations with Soulful Sounds eased any worries I had right away, they were on time, responsive, and gave everything we wanted and more!

Go on and book Soulful Sounds- you won't regret it.

I got married last week and my guests are still raving about the DJ. I honestly believe that a DJ can make or break your wedding- Jeff made mine unforgettable.
I am from the Caribbean and Jeff had everyone on the dancefloor in a Carnival-like atmosphere. Jeff was very accommodating to our requests and did an amazing job MC-ing a game we played during our reception. Jeff did an amazing job with many personal touches that did not go unnoticed. Thank you Jeff! If I ever need a DJ again in the future it will certainly be Soulful Sounds.

Great People - Great Music - Highly Recommended!

From start to finish a phenomenal experience. Jeff is a great guy and is very cordial and professional. He did my brother's wedding 10 years ago and still remembered us. Pricing is very fair as well. My wife and I are not crazy about loud and crazy wedding dance music. That being said, we requested strictly Motown & 50/60's Music. Talk about an A++ Playlist - we received so many compliments about the music. We requested a handful of specific songs in addition, all of which were played and at the absolute perfect times too! Very accommodating, on time, no issues, great playlist, not too loud, great price....they checked every box. Highly recommend!

I had already attended three weddings where Soulful Sounds and Jeff were the DJ/emcee so I knew he was a professional and he did not disappoint! Our wedding was outdoors and unfortunately mother nature threw us a curve ball and while the weather mercifully cleared up around the time we were supposed to get married, the start of our wedding was pushed back a little bit. While a 15 or 20 minute delay may not sound like a big deal, when everything is so tightly scheduled like it is on your wedding day, it can quickly snowball to the point where you've basically got to throw your schedule out the window. This is exactly what happened to us, and while we were a little nervous and anxious about not having a schedule and "winging it", Jeff didn't blink and had no problems making changes and adjustments right on the spot. He was so fantastic, he even helped us relax and enjoy the moment as we were getting nervous and stressed about the schedule! Most importantly, of course, we had a great time and all of our guests reported that they had a blast as well. They really delivered for us and I hope to someday attend another event or wedding where they DJ as well

Jeff and his partner are great! I didn’t need to shop around for a DJ because he’s been the family’s wedding DJ since 2012, and he always puts on a good show. Keeps everyone entertained. From what I’ve heard of others people’s weddings.. more on the affordable side as well! He had a detailed worksheet to fill out of names/songs/details... I think this made it especially easy to tell him exactly what we wanted. Very happy we used Soulful Sounds, and we will continue to keep his phone number spreading for all future weddings!

Soulful Sounds definitely added to the amazing event which was my wedding. During the planning Jeff spoke with my wife and I helping us with any questions that we had and made sure it was one less thing that we had to stress about. The lines of communication were kept open throughout the entire process. During the reception they got everyone comfortable and helped everyone interact with each other. My uncle who attended was very ill a week before my wedding. When Jeff handed him the microphone he performed like he was on stage at Madison Square Garden. It was such a pleasure working with soulful sounds and i cant wait to hire them for another event. I will also recommend them to anyone looking for a MC and DJ for their events.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
