    Amazing DJ!

    In DJ Tim we trust!! All of our guests can’t stop telling us how great the music was at our wedding. AllStar Entertainment was great at answering our questions throughout the process. DJ Tim was able to accommodate our musical requests, even a Taylor Swift mashup! He went above and beyond on the day of. We’re so glad we booked him for our wedding!

    Amazing DJ!

    From the get-go, finding a wedding DJ through All Star was incredibly easy. Jeremy was extremely helpful and transparent with packages, pricing, etc, and even was able to match us with a wonderful DJ right away! Brian was a fantastic DJ who really went the extra mile to make sure our day went perfectly. In our pre-meeting, he made sure he knew all of our processional and recessional orders, checked-in about any family drama he should be aware of, and even confirmed name pronunciations with us to make sure everything was perfect on the wedding day. He kept the energy going all night long, and our reception was an absolute blast of a dance party until the very end.

    Wonderful! Highly recommended

    Tom was great. We had a very specific vision for our wedding music, and Tom was great at accommodating what we wanted and keeping the dance floor packed all night. And he did it without drawing too much attention to himself; he let the music speak for himself. Tom also met with us in advance, talked us through the night, and helped us think about timing for the reception, including suggestions and insight into things we hadn’t thought about, for example, how long the buffet service would take. Guests have gone out of their way to compliment the energy on the dance floor, and we think Tom did a great job shepherding the dancing over the course of the evening. We highly recommend AllStar, and Tom Madden particularly.

    Professional and easy

    John was a breeze to work with. He was flexible and professional. He made everything extremely easy from start to finish and kept in touch through the planning process. John took the time to make sure our wedding was everything we wanted and more. I highly recommend booking with All Star Entertainment for any of your party needs.

    All Star All The Way!

    All Star DJ Entertainment really is an all-star experience. The guy behind the curtain, John DePalma is not just a DJ he brings a level of entertainment and expertise to the dance floor that is unmatched by any other experience. He’ s like family, only the kind you want at your wedding! Weddings are crazy. And our wedding day agenda was a tall order - lots of specific sound cues with elaborate entrances. The bells and whistles had bells and whistles. And All Star DJ Entertainment didn’t miss a beat! I am grateful for the rhythm they gave that day and the amazing experience they gave to people of all generations from around the world that shared the dance floor that night!

They made our wedding day unforgettable. We highly recommend them to anyone to wants to have a great time at an event.

    John with All-Star is the best!

    From the minute we talked to John about the possibility of working with him at our wedding, I knew we would choose him and I was convinced that the music would be great. He knew our venue inside and out, respected our vision of a true dance party, and was very clear that we would be in charge of the songs he played. He made available to us his 180,000-song database and we picked songs we absolutely wanted to hear, songs we would be amenable to hearing, and songs we had zero interest in. He adhered to every request. He is responsive, enthusiastic, and open to ideas, and he knows how to keep people on the dance floor. The music at our wedding was exactly what we wanted, thanks to John. I recommend him wholeheartedly and look forward to the chance to work with him again.

    A Party From Start to Finish

    John crushed it!! We did a cocktail hour style wedding with no speeches and just 1 special dance at the beginning, so it was all on John to keep the party going and man did he ever. Everyone had a great time and wished the party could have gone on longer, 10/10 would use again!!

    Perfect wedding!

    All star was the perfect choice for our wedding! From the very beginning, John was able to guide us through the planning process and give suggestions about what types of music to play during the different parts of the evening. He was very responsive, thoughtful, and professional,and the event flowed very smoothly. It was evident that all the guests loved the music, based on how many people were on the dance floor! After the wedding, many friends and family raved about the music and how great it was. I could not be happier with John and the All Star team, and would highly recommend them to anyone planning an event!

    John is an amazing DJ. He was very transparent throughout the entire process from consultant through the party and genial the entire time. To anyone who wants to do something unconventional, John's your guy as he helped me plan and execute a unique entrance into the dance hall.

    The owner John DePalma was the DJ for our wedding and he was FANTASTIC! Everyone complimented the music and there was something played for everyone in attendance. I've been to a few weddings over the years, but Johns style blew everyone else away! I'll definitely hire him for any future events!

    We can't thank John DePalma of All Star Entertainment enough for the outstanding job he did as the DJ at our daughter's wedding. From the first time we met with him until the wedding itself, John was kind, knowledgable and professional. Our daughter and son in law felt that John really listened to them with regard to song selection and the overall atmosphere they envisioned for their reception. He was fully equipped, offering LED lights, photo booth and smoke machine. The lighting effects in the room were fantastic! John worked well with the venue in timing the bride and groom's special moments and his experience with announcing and reading the crowd to deliver a classy yet upbeat presentation was evident. John played music that kept the dance floor full all night. We were happy to see all age groups out there having a wonderful time. Everyone keeps telling us that they had so much fun and the wedding was the "best ever"! Several of the guests have already asked for John's contact information and one has already booked their party with him! So much planning and expense goes into a wedding. The DJ can make or break the party. John DePalma really made our daughter's wedding a great success! We highly recommend him!

    John was wonderful through the whole experience. He seems to be very passionate of his job and any conversation we had with him, it always ended up in laughter. I provided him an extensive and mixed playlist and he and Jonathan were great about fitting in everything we wanted to please our mixed crowd. They both did a great job of keeping everything running smoothly and on time. I would definitely recommend him as a DJ. My guests had a wonderful time and we're still getting compliments about the music and lighting.

    John at All Star was wonderful through the whole experience from booking, planning and the actual wedding. I gave him an extensive play list and he was great about fitting in everything I wanted. He also MC'd the wedding and did a great job of keeping everything running smoothly and on time. We also booked a photo booth through him and it was a huge hit. He had a huge number of different kinds of props and our guests had a great time all night long. I would highly recommend this vendor

    DJ John and All-Star Entertainment were PERFECT for our special day! We had a blast at my brother's wedding (our family wouldn't stop raving about how good DJ John was), and we knew for sure our guests were going to have a great time at ours! He offers plenty of extra add-ons and services. We enjoyed the open photo booth and the live photographer who took photos that were displayed on the screens. DJ John personalized and customized his services for us, and allowed us to make choices about what we wanted and what we didn't want. We especially loved the opportunity to take our time in selecting songs using the web-based song selection program. There were so many songs available, both old and new. We also appreciated the idea that were able to choose songs we did NOT want played at our wedding, regardless of a guest request. We see DJ John at other events, and he always remembers us. It is great to know we have a new friend with whom we share some great memories!
    All Star Entertainment has never disappointed us, and will not disappoint!

    John was amazing. Any time I spoke with him, the conversation always ended up in laughter. I would definitely recommend him as a DJ, my guests had a wonderful time. Not feeling so great and all, he showed up to our wedding and did an excellent job. That to me is pure dedication to the bride and groom. Thank you John.

    John was FANTASTIC! From the very beginning he was friendly, professional, and personable. He went above and beyond, even before we hired him, to make sure that we got exactly what we wanted on our special day.
    John is your man for your special day, and If you are having your reception at The James Ward Mansion, then you NEED to have John.
    He has an uncanny ability to read the crowd and keep everyone on their feet, dancing, the whole time.
    We were very pleased! Could not be happier!

    We used All Star Entertainment for our wedding this past weekend and they were amazing! During the entire planning process, they answered all of the questions we had very quickly. John was very flexible with the way we wanted certain things to happen and ensured that everything went smoothly. He was good at taking our cues to make sure we were completely happy and comfortable the whole night. He was very professional and had a great personality. They played every song we requested they play, and they took our song choices and played similar music based on our music tastes. He really knew how to read the crowd to keep people on the dance floor. I think every single person got up to dance at one point or another. I even noticed that he would purposely play songs I requested while I was already on the dance floor which was awesome. The price was I think around average for a dj for a wedding, but well worth it for the quality of what you are getting. I would recommend them to anyone needing a dj for their event.
