Outstanding!

Outstanding in every way! DJ Tony Cutlass is an accomplished DJ who exceeded our expectations. He met our budget and went over and above to ensure a fantastic wedding celebration. He arrived early; was set up, including special lighting that set the mood for our event and reflected the color palette chosen for the wedding; and ready to go when the wedding reception started. DJ Tony continued to play the most fantastic music until after the event was over. A true professional who was invested in the success of the event. We highly recommend DJ Tony Cutlass!

A DJ that creates the vibe

If you’re looking for a DJ who doesn’t just play music but creates the vibe, look no further than DJ Cutless. From the moment they step behind the booth, the energy shifts. Whether it’s a laid-back lounge night or a high-energy dance floor, DJ Cutless knows exactly how to read the room and keep the crowd moving. Seamless transitions, flawless mixes, and the perfect blend of classic hits and fresh tracks—this DJ sets the tone and takes the party to the next level. It’s not just music—it’s a full experience. Highly recommend for any event where the vibe matters.

I would 100% recommend Tony DJ for any event you are planning. He did a wonderful job at our wedding. He is great at reading the room and keeping things going at all times. He tailored the music to our specific personalities and listened to all our concerns. He also provided up lights that set the mood for the dance floor. My 78 year old grandmother even commented what a good job he did!! I would hire him again without reservation.
