    Barb was great to work with! She helped us a lot with planning our ceremony and reception and played a great mix of music.

    Barb was amazing! She is truly a good project manager. She made sure she had every detail right for the wedding day. During the dancing, she also made sure that she had all of our genre choices. She played pop music in 40s theme for dinner, and early 200s R&B and motown, as well as current songs for the dancing (just as we requested). She made suggestions about changes to our wedding schedule, but she was never imposing. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants to have a fun wedding.

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Thanks, Jonathan -- I have to admit, you guys made my job easy! You were so nice to work with, and your guests were a lot of fun -- omg, they were dancing
    up a storm! Thank you so much for having me, and best of luck to you both! :)

    Barb Fox is absolutely incredible and was a HUGE part of making my wedding the best day ever!! She did our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception music. Each event was better than the last! She was immensely helpful with planning the wedding, especially our reception timeline. She answers emails extremely quickly and was very accommodating with meeting in person or over the phone, which I always appreciated as a detail oriented bride! She plays the perfect balance of dancey music, slow songs and group dances. I may be biased because it was my own wedding, but I have never been to a better dance party at a reception. She even checked in with me throughout the night to make sure I was happy! When my husband's grandma requested that she play the hokey pokey, she got everyone at the wedding on the dance floor to participate and it was HILARIOUS - most definitely a highlight of the night!! I can't imagine that the wedding would have been as perfect without Barb guiding it. All of our guests are raving about the great night they had and I know it is surely in part to the wonderful reception Barb helped us throw. We cannot thank Barb enough for her amazing work and hospitality! Future brides reading this - YOU NEED BARB AT YOUR WEDDING!

    Dynamic Entertainer

    Barb Fox is a dynamic entertainer, not just a DJ. My fiancé and I were thrilled that she was willing to travel for our destination wedding in Maine. She met with us do discuss more than just the genres of music that we liked, she let us share our playlists and helped us orchestrate our reception. She is funny, personable, and keeps the party rolling in a way only she could have! We would hire her again in a heart.

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Eileen, ohmigosh, I LOVED doing your wedding! Everyone was so fun and easy to engage with -- they really got me going! My very best wishes to you and Tim... and thank you SO much for having me!!!😊😊😊

    Barb was wonderful! We didn't have a lot if dancers at our wedding, but Barb came out and got everyone on the dance floor. All the children that were there had a blast with the glow toys she gave them. Choose Barb for your wedding dj. You won't be disappointed.

    Barb was so great to work with. Wedding planning was really not my thing, but she helped me through the process and really understood what I was looking for. She knew the kind of music my guests wanted to hear and people were dancing all night! I can't say enough great things. I had always wanted a band for my wedding, but decided to go with a DJ and choosing Barb I had absolutely no regrets. The music and her MC skills were spot on!

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Thanks so much, Megan! It was so much fun -- your guests were great -- I wasn't sure if everyone would dance, because it was so hot, but that definitely didn't stop anyone! Best of luck to you guys -- it was wonderful meeting you! Thanks for letting me be a part of such a special day. :)

    Helpful knowledgeable great paying attention to details

    They were great to work with. They helped us to stay to our timeline. Their music was of great quality, great sounding, and what we had asked for. We had a great time and experience with them, they were very professional. We would high recommend them.

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Thanks, Amy -- you and Craig were a pleasure to work with (and I should mention Mackenzie, as well -- she was a great planner!). And of course, you picked the perfect venue! Thanks for having me, and best of luck to you both!

    Love her! Amazing DJ

    Barb was an amazing DJ and more. She kept the reception going, knew how to read the crowd and had everyone dancing. She is amazing. I had numerous comments after the wedding on what a great DJ she was. She even got out there and lead a conga line! Love, love, love her!

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Cheri,
    Ohmigosh, you guys were awesome! Once they started dancing, there was no stopping them! And everyone was so nice, they couldn't have made my job easier. Thank you SO much for having me!💖💗

    Barb did an amazing job DJing our wedding. She was able to get everyone up and dancing by knowing what song selections to play. One of the main things we wanted out of the reception was to have as many people dancing as possible. Barb succeeded in obtaining that goal. We were so happy with Barb and highly recommend her for any occasion.

    Barb Fox Rocked!

    Was looking through different DJs in the area and kept seeing Barbs name pop up. The reviews looked great so I gave her a call. Super personable and was very accommodating. I was super picky about my songs and had the playlist pretty much picked out and Barb delivered and added a lot of fun and energy and engaged with the guests. She was very regimented and organized throughout the night events and kept everything moving so we could play all of the songs on my list. 10/10 recommend Barb! We had a great experience.

    Pure Perfection!

    From the 1st email to the phone calls and meeting Barb was amazing! Her enthusiasm and excitement is contagious. She is truly a part of your special day! We had an eclectic music list specific for many parts of our day and Barb was able to execute each of them flawlessly! She was in tune with the day and engaging throughout. She kept the party going! We could not recommend Barb more for your special day.

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Matt,
    You and Christina are so adorable! I loved working with you guys--it was such a pleasure! As for your eclectic taste --I totally got it! (Trust me, as a DJ, my personal taste is extremely eclectic! 🤣🤣🤣)

    My very best wishes to you both -- I love your story, you both are an inspiration!💗💕

    I was in love with Barb from the first moment I spoke with her on the phone. She is vivacious and very obviously enjoys what she does. Alongside that enthusiasm, she carries large amounts of experience in all types of events and with many vendors in the area

    I already have and will continue to recommend Barb as a DJ for any occasion. Before our wedding, we spoke on the phone several times. She helped me create a time schedule of events and provided much insight on the do's and don'ts of wedding entertainment. None of our other vendors spent that much time with our planning process. At our wedding, Barb was the absolute best. She kept the event on task all day. She was an excellent MC. THEN the dancing began. She somehow managed to please both my 20-something college friends and my older, reserved family members. I've never seen so many of my aunts and uncles actually dance at a wedding!

    If you're searching for a DJ, stop shopping and just call Barb now.

    Barb was amazing from day one! When I booked her as the DJ for my wedding I didn't have a clue what I wanted or needed. She was extremely helpful in getting me organized, choosing the right songs and making sure that we had the attention of all of our guests with our introductions and our first dance. I know it was my wedding so I'm a little biased, but I have never been to a wedding where there was so much dancing and so many people having the time of their lives. We still have people telling us we should renew or vows on a yearly basis just so we can have another party like that. It would never have been like that without Barb and I cannot thank her enough for making our special day a day everyone will remember for the rest of their lives!

    Barb was the DJ at my daughter’s wedding on 8-18-18. I have had the opportunity to work with Barb at a couple weddings and when my daughter announced she was getting married, I knew right away that Barb was the best DJ for her wedding. Barb is professional, fun and knows how to get the guests dancing. Her experience allows her to be prepared for anything. It had rained for days prior to my daughters outside wedding and the ground was a saturated and a muddy mess. Barb not only made sure the music was perfect, she also made sure my daughter and son-in-law were having a good time and taken care of. As the Mother of the Bride one thing that I appreciate is that Barb is genuine and caring. Once the wedding was done and over she still continued to care about how the couple was. I would highly recommend Barb. You will not be disappointed.

    Amazing DJ!

    We could not be happier with our decision to use Barb for our wedding. Right from the start she was extremely responsive to our emails and really took the time to get to know us to play the right music for our crowd. She even took the time to double check she had the right versions of important songs for our ceremony and reception. Not only did she keep the party going with her choice in music, but she was an amazing master of ceremonies. She was also extremely accommodating when we had to postpone our initial wedding due to COVID and definitely helped make the wait worth it!

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Hannah -- holy cats! You guys were amazing to work with...and what a fun and crazy group of guests! They were SO much fun -- my assistant and I were laughing and talking about it for days! Thank you so much for having me -- it is always my pleasure to work for people as wonderful as you. :)

    I am so glad we hired Barb for our wedding reception. She was a great DJ, she was able to get people to dance that I did not expect to dance at our wedding. She came up with some creative ideas that made the reception exciting and unique. But beyond being the DJ, Barb helped our reception run as a whole. She went above and beyond what I would expect a DJ to do. When unexpected issues arose, Barb was right next to my friends and family to help make things run smoothly. At one point she was even clearing plates for the caterers. I am so grateful for her and all she did for us that day. I would highly recommend her to anyone in search of a DJ.

    Barb is lively, attractive and comes up with the best playlists. I found her to be very open to our requests and desires. She even accepted my last minute changes with no problem! She really knows her stuff. Barb is also runs trivia contests in our local area, and at our request, did a dinner hour "Michelle and Erik" trivia contest, for which the award was personalized CD's that she made up with selected songs from our ceremony and the reception and with our picture on the front. I have seen CD's that other DJ's have made up for weddings of my friends and family, and they were just pure crap in comparison, ranging from a burnt CD with a crappy computer-printed song list folded in the CD cover to an unplayable disc with no song list at all. Barb is pure class! The nifty clam-shell shaped CD holders were clear and the CD itself was high quality, with a picture of my husband and I on the cover with awesome graphics and font to list the song names and wedding date. She brought glow sticks and bracelets to throw out on the dance floor for after the lights went out, and my guests loved it! I would also mention that Barb was extremely easy to get ahold of, via phone or email, she always returns phone calls, and she is worth every penny. She did not mispronounce anyone's name, there was absolutely no dead air, and she has been in the business long enough to offer up extremely valuable (and hillarious!) advice.

    Such a great experience

    Barb was easy to work with and very helpful. I only requested a handful of songs to be played at our wedding and then I let Barb chose the rest of the music and she did any amazing job. She is the DJ you want If you want a Stress free night and someone who is approachable and easy to work with

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Nicole, you and Chris were (and are) so sweet! And ohmigosh, you two singing Queen and others .... was hysterical! Not sure if I can attach a video, but, if I can, I will -- it was great! Thank you so much for having me -- how am I so lucky to always get such fabulous brides and grooms???!!!! :)

    Barb was great! I could not have asked for a better DJ for my wedding! I literally never left the dance floor! I would recommend her for any event, she plays to the crowd as well as the music that you select. It was a great night not only for me but for my guests as well!

    Barb DJ'ed my best friend's wedding for which I was maid of honor. I've been to A LOT of weddings - this year in particular - and Barb was my favorite DJ by far. She has the excellent ability to read a crowd, a plethora of diverse yet perfect songs for events, and an excellent personality with which to host events like these. More than this, she was exceptionally pleasant to work with. I will absolutely be hiring her for my wedding (should I ever actually get married).

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Brittany, (or should I say "Brittelle?) --

    Thank you so much for such kind words! I thought you all were fabulous -- holy cats! Such dancers! :) And I hope that you DO "ever actually" get married, so I can do your wedding -- you are so much fun!!!! :) Take good care.....

    Barb Fox was the DJ and MC for our wedding and reception in June 2017. She also provided ceremony music, and uplighting for the reception venue. She worked with us to select music, and to figure out the timeline for the reception, including helping us figure out when toasts should be given, cake cut, and special dances happen. She incorporated some of our less danceable music preferences into music over dinner, and played fun, recognizable, danceable, and wedding-appropriate music based on our preferences during the reception. The uplighting added a nice touch to the venue, and the ceremony music was exactly what we requested. She had one equipment failure, but had spare equipment ready and quickly swapped in the spare for minimal disruption.

    We were impressed with her professionalism, her ability to MC and run the show and work through small changes to the timeline, and her depth of knowledge and passion for music. Overall we were very pleased with her services.

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Jesse, thanks so much -- it was my pleasure to DJ your wedding! Your friends and family were so nice and easy to work with -- I loved their requests! :) Thanks for having me, and best of luck to you both in your futures!

    Absolutely recommend!


    Barb was absolutely amazing at our wedding to say the least. She hit all of the best hits and kept the party very much alive! It was such a blast to have her with us. Barb was also very helpful with sticking to our game plan and helped keep the night organized and flowing smoothly. If you are looking for a great time, I highly recommend Barb!

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Genevieve, it was my pleasure to DJ your wedding -- you two were awesome! And what a crazy group of friends and family you have. I think I should hire your brother to come with me to all my weddings to do his crazy dancing -- omg, those flips! Anyway, I wish you both all the best in your future, filled with joy. :)

    Barb was incredible! I was maid of honor for my friend's Nicole and Andy's wedding. For the speeches we (Bride tribe) did a SURPRISE karaoke concert medley. Barb went above and beyond for my friend Jeff and I to be successful. We chatted with her a few days before, she checked in with us prior to the day and during the big day! She was great! When it came to dancing she played awesome tunes all night long! It was an incredible party, a perfect day for our friends and Barb was a huge part of making the day fun, stress free and memorable! I really enjoyed working with her and partying with her. I highly recommend her!

    Dj barb!

    I cannot recommend Barb enough. If you are reading this, you are finding Barb the same way I did - through countless AMAZING reviews. We spoke with Barb and shared we were looking for 'music that can make all ages stay on the dance floor all night' and boy, did Barb deliver! My guests were even chanting, DJ BARB! DJ BARB! at the end of the night. Barb was fantastic with the dance floor obviously but also significant in helping to coordinate the ceremony and other special moments like the speeches. I wish I could give her 10 stars!

    Barb Fox's DJ Entertainment's reply:

    Paige and Kurt,
    How I got so lucky to meet people like you, I have no idea, but wow! You guys were AWESOME to work with! And your friends and family -- simply incredible! I will say it was the first time I've ever had people chanting my name from the dance floor -- I felt like a rock star! My very best wishes to you both in your future life together, it was totally a pleasure to share in your fantastically special day! Thank you again for having me!

    Barb
