    Dave is the BEST

    Dave was all we could have asked for and more. He was supportive throughout our planning process. His communication was top notch. He ensured that the ceremony, dinner, and dancing music was in line with our tastes. He always asked for our ideas, preferences, and thoughts, but had a knack for knowing when we could use his expertise.

    Not only was Dave outstanding throughout the planning process, he brought the energy and top-level service to our wedding day. He continued to display his strong communication skills by working with the coordinator and officiant. He was also a great, calming presence on a day that can be filled with anxiety.

    In the dancing portion of the evening, Dave really brought the house down. He really knows how to keep a party going. Our guests are still raving about how much fun the music was - 3 months later. I couldn't recommend Dave enough.

    Fantastic experience

    We could not recommend Dave more. He was an exceptional DJ for our wedding in August, so easy to work with, and made us feel completely confident and at ease throughout the process. We had so many people tell us it was the best wedding dance floor they've been at, and the music was fantastic. We couldn't be happier that we hired him, and would do it again in a heartbeat.

    Incredibly professional and friendly

    I can’t begin to explain how great Dave Hodges was for our wedding. He was very thoughtful in his planning and collaboration with us prior to our wedding. While all weddings have last minute adjustments, he was thorough in ensuring everything would proceed as smooth as possible. Highly recommended for your wedding or event. We have found our DJ for any future events that come our way.

    Best Dj ever!

    We could not have been happier with the services from Dave for our Wedding!! 10 out of 10 would recommend working with Dave for your event. From start to finish, Dave was responsive, friendly, and truly listened to what we wanted to make our special day so perfect. We even had a few extremely last minute changes that Dave was super accommodating with and made our day truly special. We really wanted a wedding full of dancing and fun music and that is exactly what Dave provided. We wish we could do it all over every weekend!! Thank you again Dave for everything, Best DJ / person ever!

    5 Star Events DJ's reply:

    5 Star Events and DJ Dave are Great!

    We LOVE DJ Dave! Our guests could not stop talking about how much fun our wedding was and how they had such a great time on the dancefloor. Dave made planning an absolute breeze. We really had no idea what to expect or how to plan for our music and Dave was so great as he walked us through the process. His portal makes it so easy to add songs that you definitely want to hear as well as the "do not plays." The best part about it was that he really read our crowd and played the best songs ever. We had an absolute blast!

    5 Star Events DJ's reply:

    And I love you guys!!! I’m glad my system made the process enjoyable for you :-). Have an amazing New Year!!!

    Dave was awesome!

    My fiance and I had the pleasure of working with Dave from 5 Star Events as our wedding DJ. From the minute we began working with him, he was extremely professional, responsive and helpful. Then, COVID hit and we made the difficult decision to postpone. Dave was EXTREMELY flexible and understanding. Once we let him know our new date (and new venue) he remained flexible and attentive to what we wanted. He continued to be so easy to work with and spent time with us on the phone before our wedding day, helping us with the flow of the evening and various songs for each part of the night. Once the night began, he was awesome start to finish. The dance floor was packed all night and he really knew how to work the room. It's impossible to keep track of how many guests said our wedding was a blast, in large part to the great work done by Dave! Thank Dave for being a part of our special day and for making it so memorable! We highly recommend Dave!

    Incredible experience!

    DJ Dave was incredible to work with. We needed to postpone our wedding 1 year due to Covid, which required a lot of work to cancel and reschedule all of our vendors for our revised wedding date. Dave was so flexible, responsive and willing to work with us through all of it. He made the experience so easy, listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly what we were looking for. Our dancefloor was packed the entire time, all due to Dave's ability to read the room, and his awesome music selection. We would recommend him to anyone looking for a great DJ in the Cape Cod area!

    DJ Dave is the BEST!!!

    We can’t say enough good things about Five Star Events and, more specifically, DJ Dave Hodges. Dave worked our wedding a couple of weeks ago and was absolutely phenomenal. He worked with us to create the perfect timeline and communicated with us throughout the wedding to make sure it flowed perfectly. His platform is user-friendly and is designed to ensure that he plays all your favorite songs. I would HIGHLY recommend Five Star Events and DJ Dave and hope to have the opportunity to utilize their services in the future!!

    Thank you so much Molly!!! I had so much fun working with you and Sean :-). You kept me on my toes and I loved every minute of it!

    Dave is the BEST

    Dave Hodges was our DJ for our Cape Cod wedding and my husband and I cannot say enough positive things about him! From start to finish, he was professional, patient, and the music was perfect. Dave is SUPER organized and helped guide us through the process of picking songs for the ceremony, dinner, and reception. Thank you Dave for everything; we will never forget you!

    Professional & Helpful

    Dave has been incredible to work with! From the start he has been responsive, helpful and open to our thoughts and ideas! When it came time to postpone due to the COVID-19 virus, Dave was empathetic and kind. I would recommend him several times over to anyone with an upcoming event!

    Dave is great!

    Dave is so professional and makes everything so easy!
    My husband and I attended a wedding where Dave was the DJ, so we knew in advance how great he was.

    Our ceremony was held in an outdoor venue without electricity, and Dave set up our "off the grid" ceremony with batting an eye.
    Dave also set up lighting for our reception that really helped transform the space.
    He does a great job of getting to know the couple, and really making the reception reflect them. Neither of us are huge dancers, and a lot of the music we like isn't really music for dancing at a wedding. Dave did a great job of getting an idea of our music taste and reading the room to play what our guests needed. We got lots of comments from our guests about how great the music was that night!

    The best!!

    DJ Dave of 5 Star Events was the best! He was very easy to work with leading up to our wedding day; we loved the online song database and in-person consultation. We felt like he truly had an understanding of what music we liked and went above and beyond on our wedding day! His selection of music and timing of songs could not have been more perfect. He kept the dance floor full all night long! We would highly recommend 5 Star Events for your wedding!

    Excellent experience

    Our experience with DJ Dave was incredible. He truly made planning stress free and his attention to detail allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding day. He was very accommodating to all of our requests. His skill as a DJ is also impressive and he seamlessly plays off of the party as to how he will make his next move and song selection. Our guests raved about their experience on the dance floor. Highly recommend! Thanks for everything Dave!!

    Excellent Experience

    Our experience with Dave was wonderful from the very first phone call. He answered every question I had and was also very responsive to any follow up emails. The week below the wedding he even followed up with my videographer to make sure everything was set for the audio during the ceremony. Dave has a great attention to detail and is extremely professional. He followed through with all of our music requests and gave us very helpful advice throughout the planning process. Everyone had a great time dancing and he kept the party going the whole night. For the last dance song, my husband was away from the dance floor so Dave asked if there was one more song that we wanted to hear before he left . The song and the last dance ended up being one of the highlights of the evening that all the guests talked about. Our wedding was perfect and Dave was one of the reasons why.!I highly recommend Dave and 5 Star Events!

His attentiveness and responsiveness to all of our questions made us feel comfortable and relaxed. Day of he delivered nothing but the best! He brings an amazing presence to the room and makes sure your night is unforgettable. The lighting packing he suggested definitely took our wedding reception to the next level - highly recommend.

    One of the best parts of our wedding

    Dave was so wonderful to work with. He was quick and accommodating in answering all of our questions. His services from ceremony music, cocktail hour, to the reception were second to none. This was the easiest and most fun part of our wedding. I can't thank you enough Dave and 5 Star Events.

    Thank you so much! It means the world to me that my couples get exactly what they want, and it's an enjoyable experience :-).

    DJ Dave is Amazing and Flexible

    My Wife and I requested a lot from our DJ. From Multiple entrance songs, to surprise dances, to working with me months before our wedding to ensure we were on the same page. I can not say enough with how amazing and flexible DJ Dave was for my wife and I. He met all of our expectations and more. If you are looking for a DJ that understands that your wedding night is YOUR NIGHT I recommend DJ Dave and 5 Star Events.

    5 Star Events DJ's reply:

    Thank you!!! Your wedding will easily go down as one of the most memorable. 500 weddings down the road it will still stand out. I know how hard you and Abby worked to make it go down exactly the way it did. I just consider myself fortunate to have gotten to be part of it.

    I wish you both all the best!!

    5 Star verified!

    DJ Dave will be exactly what you want because he truly listens to you, understands what you’re looking for, and executes it better than you could have asked for. I did immense research on a dj for our wedding. I have been to countless weddings and the music and flow are what make or break the event. Dave was professional and energetic from the first encounter. He took notes on everything we talked about at our initial meeting. His formatting and online system is very easy to use when choosing music and explaining the days timeline. What is unique about Dave is that you don’t feel like there’s just a playlist running. However, he doesn’t interject himself either. Dave just “gets it”. He worked incredibly well with all of my vendors and keeping the flow. I had an artist sing for my ceremony/cocktail hour but he still worked with her to ensure everything was smooth. That is very important the day of. Most importantly, everyone was on the dance floor the entire evening! Dave is the reason all of our friends and family are still saying it was the most fun wedding they’ve been to. We are so grateful for making our day classy but fun!

    5 Star Events DJ's reply:

    Ashley, thank you so much for your review!! This is exactly why I love what I do. I get to work with couples like you, and Adam to help bring your vision to life :-). Your friends and family made the experience beyond fun!

    Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!!

    Excellent experience!

    Working with 5 Star Events was fantastic from start to finish. Dave Hodges made everything easy, from selecting songs for the playlist on the website to discussing MC plans for the entire wedding ceremony and reception. All aspects of the day went as smooth as could be thanks to Dave's attention to detail and professionalism. And all of our guests could not stop raving about the music selection. Dave and 5 Star Events have our highest recommendation!

    Book Dave!!!

    Dave was the perfect wedding DJ! He took the time to meet with us in person before the wedding and his online portal made it easy to select songs and schedule the day. We had a Day wedding so we were not sure if people would dance but everyone was on the dance floor the entire time! Dave is also so nice and easygoing. I would work with him again in a heartbeat. Thanks Dave!

    Friendly and accommodating

    I was working as a videographer at one of the weddings where Dave was the DJ. I reached out to him before the wedding to make sure that I could record an audio feed from his equipment. He got back to me right away and offered several helpful options. Then he set aside time to work with me on the wedding day, which is not something that always happens. He was friendly to me and the guests, and from what I could tell the crowd seemed to enjoy his music (which included some lesser-known songs that had special significance to the bride and groom) and his enthusiasm. He made the wedding shoot that much easier for me, so I am confident that he will bring exceptional service to whoever hires him.
