    Amazing Night on the Dance Floor

    When my spouse and I think back to our wedding night we think of how much fun we had on the dance floor, everyone commented on how much fun they had, seriously even our grandparents were on the dance floor all night. Andy was great about answering all our questions, he was also very flexible about arranging for my grandpa to sing for us, he was accommodating with changes in the bridal party the week and day of and he was willing to go along with any requests that may have gone differently than our original plan. A pleasure to work with and would highly recommend.

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi Mariah and Joe! Thanks for the kind words. It was a pleasure and honor being part of your special day. Your grandfather David's vocal performances were outstanding, especially the Lord's Prayer. Have an incredible time in the Bahamas, I can't wait to see the photos!

    All the best,

    Andy

    Wedding 9/25/21

    Andy was super helpful through our whole wedding process. He is full of energy snd excitement and seems to truly love being a part of weddings. He was always willing to answer any and all questions and even helped our officiant with some ceremony logistical details. Andy was at the venue well in advance of the ceremony to ensure everything was set to go. We would highly recommend Andy for DJ services, he was great to work with and kept the dance floor full!

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi David, it was an honor being part of your special day. Thanks for the kind words. Your group was AMAZING and a pleasure to work with. After multiple decades as a wedding entertainer, I still have the same passion for the craft as when I first started. Fortunate is the individual who's occupation and life's passion are one in the same. Be well my friend...Andy

    Absolutely the BEST

    My now husband and I were absolutely blown away by the stellar service provided by Andy. Our venue set-up was slightly unusual, but Andy made tactful accommodations for a seamless reception. After the parent dances, Andy had everyone out on the dance floor and they stayed out on the dance floor until the very end—including several of our grandparents! Andy is charismatic, charming, and well-versed in his field. We would hire him again in a heartbeat!

    Hi Jamiee, thanks for the kind words. It was an honor being part of your special day. I hope to see you again at a future event. Be well....Andy

    When having the Boom in the Room isn't quite enough, this is the guy you hire to bring the Thunder AND the Lightning. I've been dabbling in the wedding business for a long time. When it finally came time for me to host my own wedding and reception for my daughter, I only made one demand. Hire Andy Pratt for our DJ. Over the decades, I've had the opportunity to work with Andy dozens of times, and I've also seen many other DJ's ranging from excellent to pathetic and a few unfortunate times where they hooked up an iPod to the house PA system. I would say that you can find a cheaper DJ than Andy (notice I didn't say 'more affordable'). If you need to cut corners, cut on the flowers, centerpieces, limo, or whatever else. A great DJ keeps your party on track and brings the crowd to life! Andy only uses the very best in sound equipment and the latest in lighting effects. It's like a mini (sometimes not so mini) rock concert. As a Master of Ceremonies, few DJ's can impress like Andy can. He even helped the caterer put out favors to try to keep us on schedule. If there is one lesson I've learned during a couple thousand weddings is you don't EVER skimp on the DJ. Andy will always give you 100% effort to make your big day one that everyone will talk about for years to come.

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi John, having entertained at an endless number of weddings over the decades that you were personally in charge of, I am humbled by the kind words and scope of your post. I was an honor to serve as entertainment for your daughter's most special day. Be well....Andy

    Andy was wonderful for our recent wedding. Music for prelude/processional/recessional was timed perfectly, and he was flexible with our music choices up until the very last minute. We made a great choice!

    One of the kindest DJ ever!

    As a wedding planner, I work with a lot of different DJ's every weekend. Working with Andy was a breath of fresh air! He was very responsive, communicative and flexible throughout the process. On the day, he arrived super early to make sure everything was set up on time and had everyone on the dancefloor right after dinner! I absolutely recommend Andy and his services for DJ, MC and entertainment!

    DJ Andy Pratt brought the house down at our winter wedding in the Adirondacks. He killed it! I can't tell you how many guests we're saying that was the best music mix they have heard. Everyone had a blast. That dance floor was packed all night. Even friends and family members that never even put a pinky toe on the dance floor, couldn't help themselves. Everyone was out there shaking it. I don't know how Andy did it. Andy is an amazing talent. Andy was able to bring the fun, keep the energy high and mix up all of our favorite songs not only at the reception, but also during the ceremony and the cocktail hour. Andy has great timing with his music selection. Even the florists said how great Andy's music was all day while all of the vendors were setting up. Andy is just really top notch, so professional, so great to work with and so much fun. I can't say enough about how wonderful Andy is. He arrived early in the morning and had everything set up well in advance. Thank you making this bride's wedding music dreams come true. I always say the DJ has so much control over the mood and emotion of a wedding. I knew I could trust Andy to do a phenomenal job and he did. I would hire Andy all over again. Our dance floor was packed!

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hey M! Winter weddings are the best weddings.... It was my pleasure entertaining and interacting with your guests. Speaking of your guests.....they were AMAZING on that dance floor! Be well...Andy

    Andy is a true professional. He worked with our HUGE playlist and added his own picks for an unbelievable night of dancing! The dance floor was never empty.
    Thank you Andy for a truly unforgettable reception. Our guests are still raving about the night!!

    When I think of DJ Andy I want to give him a big hug and then a high five haha - he was AMAZING. He was recommended to us by The Sagamore where we were married. We always wanted a DJ so that we could hear all types of music - and DJ Andy has everything...AND he is an amazing DJ. He literally made the night. I had specific enterance songs for the bridal party including a mix for my husband and I - I wasn't sure we could pull it off, but Andy mixed everything himself and it was epic. From the start, Andy went out of his way to explain things to us - he was professional, upfront and friendly. He took the time to ask questions and even talk to us about our honeymoon. Beyond his DJ services, we also did some party lighting which I would absolutely recommend. It totally played up the dancefloor and people were out there for hours. Andy knows how to read a crowd and that's huge. He played such a great variety. Even if you're not getting married in the Lake George area, hire DJ Andy he is literally the best wedding DJ we've ever met...we're from Boston and have attended many weddings. Thank you, Andy!!!

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    I'll take that hug and high five. (grin) The Sagamore Resort is a stunning venue where we are fortunate to do most of the weddings. Although we cover seven states as well as Canada, The Sagamore Resort is our hometown venue. Thanks for your kind words and be well....Andy

    Andy Pratt was AWESOME! There was not a minute of our reception that the dance floor was not packed! He was very interactive with the guests and easy to work with! Great time!!

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Thanks for the kind words, reading the dance floor is a psychological chess game of sorts. It's one of the most enjoyable and challenging aspects of being a wedding DJ. Thanks for the kind words....be well...Andy

    Best DJ ever!!

    Dear Andy and Stephanie,

    Ethan and I want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your amazing efforts in helping make our dream wedding come true. Everything that y'all did for us was truly stunning. The lighting gave the reception hall the ambiance we were looking for, and the sound system was just perfect for what was needed. We could feel the music in our bones, haha. Your energy in getting our guests engaged and energized themselves made the reception a total blast to enjoy. I am entirely grateful for your advice and direction in the planning as well. It not only took some stress away from us, but also made the entire day and night carry along smoothly. We didn't have a moment's worry the entire time, and that's in large part due to you guys making sure that the events were carried out in such an orderly yet fluid fashion. We will definitely be recommending you to everyone who asks, and will be talking about that day with fond memories forever. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again for everything.

    Ethan and Erica Hartman

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    The pleasure was ours as your group was outstanding! Also, a special thanks going out to Ethan for his service to our country in the United States Navy. My uncle was in the Navy, my brother the Army and my father a fighter pilot in WWII and again in Korea. Today's youth have no idea how lucky they are and very few know the full depth of the sacrifice that is required to safeguard our freedoms. We wish you the very best in your new life together.

    Best,

    Andy and Stephanie

    DJ Andy Pratt was amazing. He was recommended to us by our aunt who works in the wedding business in the albany area and sees a lot of weddings. He lived up to all our expectation and far exceeded them. We had an outdoors out of town wedding. Andy arrived a day early to check out the site and started setting up the ceremony site hours before the ceremony to ensure his top notch equipment was working well (although none of this was expected of him by his contract). Many people, including our videographer said it was the best sound quality he'd heard, which we appreciated for our various readings etc.
    Then came the reception. Andy brought an unreal energy to the reception. He incorporated the songs we asked him to, actually gave us a CD of them at the end of the night. The dance floor was packed the entire night. What a great time. We'd absolutely recommend Andy to anyone looking for a professional DJ (he wore a great tux) who can really make the reception a fun one.

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi Jessica, please thank your Aunt for her thoughtful recommendation of me. Black Tux, White tux, navy blue suit, black suit, themed attire, it's all about the bride and groom's preferences. Thanks for the kind words....be well....Andy

    I knew right away when we'd hired Andy that he would able to work a room and keep the party's energy up. He is incredibly talented, and has a great voice that he can match to any mood you're trying to set at your party. This was MONTHS before the wedding. We were so excited, we started working on our music request list right away, but Andy specifically told us not to give it to him so far in advance, because in his experience it would change many times over between then & the wedding. Sounded smart, so we held off.

    The week before the wedding, We finalized everything & emailed it off to him. After having not heard from Andy after a few days, I checked in by phone, only to find out that he hadn't had internet access all week due to a bad storm. TOTAL fluke, I get it, but then why hadn't he called to check why he hadn't gotten anything from us? I understand the storm was out of his control, the followup was not.

    The day before the wedding, he had promised to call if he had ANY questions while he was pulling together our songs (this was already way way too last minute for my comfort!), so I stayed tethered to my cellphone throughout our whole rehearsal dinner, just in case. We had all of our out of town guests there, family and friends that in many cases I hadn't seen in person in years. Many guests asked me why I was carrying a cell phone around, which of course then I had to explain it was in case my DJ called. Ok, fine. Not the end of the world, but I would have had much more fun not carrying it around while I was mingling all night, looking as if I didn't want to be at my own party.

    After the rehearsal party had wound down it turned out that Andy had EMAILED ME questions even though I had stressed that I 'd needed him to pick up a phone because I wasn't going to be near a computer! I emailed him back with answers and just had to cross my fingers because by then it way, way too late at night to call, probably a little after midnight by the time I'd gotten to my email and written back a reply.

    I woke up at 5am to drive to my hair appointment (too early to call), and then didn't stop moving up until the ceremony. Andy came running over during formal photos to tell me he didn't have some of the songs, I explained what they were and his response was "Oh, if I'd known it was THAT I could have found it." ... not super helpful just minutes before the ceremony when you're already at the venue! We picked a suitable substitute for the processional and triple checked that yes he had our 1st song all set (which he did!).

    When it came time for the reception introductions, he didn't have everyone's name in the bridal party preset (we were a small-ish group, 12 total including parents, ringbearers, bridesmaids, groomsmen, bride & groom) and he just kept complaining that I hadn't filled out his form correctly - even though I had a copy with me, and in fact I absolutely HAD, spelled out by name, role in the wedding, and order for entrances. He quickly wrote down everyone's name again and the guests were none the wiser, but this lack of preparation just seemed so totally avoidable when it came to the last minute stress it had caused!

    I WILL say that at the end of the day we had a GREAT party. Very possibly the best ever. Andy works VERY well on his feet and so far as the guests knew, everything was flawless - but of course I knew better and I would have much rathered if I could have just been a 100% happy bride all day! It's funny, our photographer only got two photos of Andy talking to me and in one you can TELL I'm annoyed and it was definitely one of the instances where I was being asked about last minute alternatives on the spot.

    Sorry this review is mostly negatives, but that's the stuff that stuck out in my head from the day-of. I can't stress enough that NONE of the guests knew about any of this stuff!

    Andy is thoroughly professional, incredibly talented, and had AMAZING sound and lighting systems. Worth every penny. I'd absolutely hire him again... I would just finalize my music a solid MONTH before, to leave plenty of followup time and no room for last minute "oops"!!! Get your music done in advance & follow up regularly until you are 100% comfortable that both you & Andy are all set!

    ~ Diana

    I really enjoyed working with Andy. He definitely got the vibe of our wedding and helped us kick it up a notch during the reception. He helped to get the party going, and keep it going strong for hours. While it was a little pricey, he was definitely worth the money. He also set up a secondary sound system outside for our ceremony and every person was able to hear our vows.

    He only books one event per day so he was available to us all day prior to the wedding as well as playing music while my bridesmaids and I got ready on sight. Yeah Andy!

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi Maggy, thanks for the kind words. Only entertaining at one wedding per day is critical in keeping the emphasis on the quality instead of the quantity of the product. I enjoy showing up earlier than any other entertainer as this allows me to be set up well in advance of the event. If an issue ever did come up you have time to deal with it. Thankfully I have not had to utilize that extra time. (grin) Be well....Andy

    our decision to hire frank that works with dj andy pratt was based upon reviews. it was a destination wedding. the big day came, and my phone rang with not so great news. they couldn't open the reception form sent via email. we couldn't resend it because we were vacationing in NY and didn't know they didn't receive the form. why he waited to call me the day of, unacceptable. the dj had no clue on what songs we wanted or our first dance for that matter. so briefly i told frank, some disco, classic rock, etc. well, beyonce single ladies, and when we were introduced for the first time i told frank again, low key..nothing crazy.. it was what they play at a circus introducing an act. for how expensive it was, we were unhappy with the quality of professionalism..

    Andy Pratt Professional Disc Jockey's reply:

    Hi Dominique, Thanks for your input. I'm sorry to hear that your expectations were not met. When we are booked we recommend other vendors such as Frank who is an independent owner operator. There are times I wish I could just clone myself and I do love working with a variety of clients. Frank sent me photos of your packed dance floor and everything looked just beautiful, I thought everything was wonderful. In regard to the formats they are requested in simple text. Unfortunately some file attachments are proprietary making them impossible to open without special software. I'm very sorry you had a bad experience with Frank, he's a family man, great guy, brides love him and have even requested him over me. It sounds like there was a communication misunderstanding here as Frank would do anything to please a bride and groom. I understand he has retired from the business after many years of weddings. Be well.....Andy
