    Best dj ever!

    My husband and I have seen A LOT of bad djs. Mike is NOT one of those. He has a whole online system where you can search song ideas, make a must play or do not play playlist, and you can also use this system for your first dance songs and other important songs. He will also happily meet with you in person or call to make sure he has your details correct. He played songs my husband and I wanted but also songs that got people to dance. I could not be happier. He was a highlight of out wedding.

    Great DJ!! Was very easy to work with!

    We hired mike as our DJ for our wedding and he was great!!! He responded quickly to e-mails and was always there to answer any questions we had! We met with Mike a few days prior to the wedding to go over all the details in person. He chose the right music for our crowd and kept people on the dance floor the entire night!!!

    Patrick and Francesca at Lake George NY 3.24.23

    According to my mother in law, The DJ is going to make or break the wedding. And she is truly right when she recommended DJ Mike! We were coming in out of state to celebrate and we’re not exactly party people, but the whole process was made easier when we were provided with an amazing system that helped us have an idea of what songs to pick and also the overall flow of what we wanted for our wedding! we spoke with Mike a few days prior just to polish everything but we never had to think about the nitty gritty because Mike was very professional and knew what to do! We just had an overall great time!! We had a lot of snow and Mike was very flexible with where he needed to set up indoors.
    We had a lot of teardrops during the beginning because of the touching ceremony music, we heard everybody catch up because the music was played at the right volume, and All our guests enjoyed the music and danced as well until the end! We had guests doing the worm, and rolling on the Dancefloor, and singing with the music!
    It was truly a special day, and thanks to you Mr Mike, we even have the songs playing well after the wedding, yes, including country music! Thank you so much again!

    DJ Mike Reilly Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you so much for the great review!!! I had a great time celebrating with you and your family and friends. I wish you both all the best!!! Thank you for having me as your Dj.

    Mike was the best DJ! He had everyone out on the dance floor the entire night. He met with us in person to go over our timeline for the wedding and did not disappoint the day off! I would recommend him to any future Bride

    Amazing music!!!

    Mike kept the party going and was great at playing to both the older and younger generations at our wedding. We had everyone dancing! Every one had an amazing time because of the amazing work Mike put in! Mike also professionally and clearly introduced everyone in his role as MC.

    Amazing work!

    Mike did an absolutely amazing job at my wedding last weekend. We had some slight changes during the reception but, he was able to pivot quick and make everything run smoothly. We had a French American wedding and he was able to track down a lot of french songs to use for the reception and I know the groom and his family really appreciated that. I would highly recommend him to any bride that is looking for a DJ for their future wedding!

    Mike was amazing to work with. From the meetings before the wedding all the way up to the day of. Mike was very accommodating of all of our requests. Mike created a great atmosphere at the wedding and our guests were dancing all night long. Mike is experienced, professional and an all around fun DJ who made a big difference for our special day.

    Absolutely amazing

    Mike was an absolute blast for our wedding. Everyone kept coming up to us and saying how he was the best DJ that they ever had. He was extremely easy to work with, very flexible, and does understand that being a DJ is more than just making a Playlist on an iPhone and hitting play.

    He has a planning app that let's you decide what song to definitely play, play if he can, and not play, with the ability to sample songs from it. If you can't decide (like we did) the app has lists of top songs for everything from First dances, to Entrances, to general dancing to help give you ideas.

    We sent him about 10-15 songs we liked to give him an idea of the vibes we were looking for and he just ran with it for the rest of the night and played a Playlist that kept everyone dancing.

    He started the night with a few slow songs and classics to get the older crowd on the dance floor before working up to faster beats to get everyone going, then he kept people dancing all night. At one point the night was starting to wind down and dance floor started to empty, he then put on Shout to get everyone back onto the dance floor to keep the party going.

    I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ.

    Incredible music - so much fun!

    Mike was so wonderful to work with from the very start. He was always quick to respond and available to chat and made us feel at ease throughout the entire planning process. Music was very important to my partner and I, and we knew we were in good hands with Mike! The music choices were spot-on and we received so many compliments on the music from all ages. Both my partner and I were unsure of what dance music we wanted but Mike's playlist was absolutely perfect. We also had a packed dance floor the majority of the night which is exactly what we wanted. I have never had so much fun dancing and wish we could do it again! I couldn't get off the dance floor because every song was perfect. If we had to do the wedding planning process all over again, we would without hesitation choose Mike again. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding DJ! Thanks again, Mike!

    Best DJ ever!

    My husband and I got married in May 2022. Our venue and photographer both recommend DJ Mike Reilly and immediately after meeting him over Zoom, we knew he was the perfect fit. He was incredible from the planning process, to the ceremony music, all the way to the reception. Our guests were obsessed with him and didn’t leave the dance floor. We would recommend him to anyone - he truly is the best!

    Absolutely amazing

    DJ Mike Reilly was a fantastic addition to our wedding! He was always available to meet prior to the wedding to discuss the details and carried out our vision perfectly on our wedding day. It was everything we wanted plus some. I would recommend him to anyone!

    Amazing experience

    Mike was such an amazing as the DJ for my October wedding! He was great at getting people up and dancing and we absolutely loved that he made sure myself and my husband were happy the whole night. You could really tell how much he wanted to make sure he made our night as amazing as he could! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ.

    Dance floor was packed!

    We hired Mike as our wedding DJ and were so pleased with that decision! We wanted to adjust the layout of our evening and Mike was more than happy to accommodate. We also were very specific with what music we did and did not want played. He made sure to stick the the songs and genres we suggested and we had an amazing night. From start to finish there were people on our dance floor which was important to us. We couldn't recommend Mike enough!!

    Amazing DJ - Highly Recommend for Weddings

    Couldn't have been a better experience with Mike. My wife and I are very happy with everything from start to finish. Mike has a great online planning form to ensure everything is accurate, not to mention the database of music available to choose from. Mike is very professional, easy to work with and stayed in touch frequently during the wedding planning process. His setup and audio gear used was top notch. If i ever need a DJ again I'll be sure to give Mike a call!

    DJ Mike: A Class Act!

    One of the best decisions we made for our wedding day was hiring DJ Mike! DJ Mike was so incredibly kind and flexible throughout the entire planning process. We had Mike booked for our original 2020 wedding. When we decided to postpone our wedding to 2021, Mike could not have been more accommodating, understanding, or patient with us. It speaks volumes of his character that he was willing to work with us as we secured our new wedding date.

    We really loved the online platform Mike shared with us to organize our wedding song requests. It was a great way for us to be in communication with Mike regarding our song selections.

    The dance floor was packed from the moment DJ Mike opened it up to our guests! He showed a lot of skill and an ability to “read the room.” He knew exactly what music would get our guests on the dance floor. It was so special to me to see that our guests from different generations were enjoying themselves and dancing together. At one point, our priest even got up to partake in the limbo competition! To this day, our friends and family are still talking to us about the funny memories that were made on the dance floor. I would highly recommend DJ Mike to anyone who wants to have a great time dancing at their wedding!

    The Right DJ Makes a Wedding Memorable- And That DJ is Mike Reilly!

    Trying to plan a wedding during a pandemic is tough enough, but trying to plan a wedding with the constantly changing regulations and only a month until the event?!? You would think this would be impossible right? Not for DJ Mike Reilly! He not only stepped-up to the plate, but hit the ball out of the park! With Mike, you would have never known it was such a stressful time because he has this wonderful, reassuring presence that resonates and sticks with you. We were connected through a friend of a friend, and from the moment we reached-out to Mike, he was there supporting us and our wedding vision. He responded almost immediately to any of our emails or texts, set-up an appointment to meet and plan within a week, then took everything we discussed to create such a memorable music selection that our guests are still texting us about it! They didn't want the party to end!

    There are not enough characters on this post to express our level of gratitude and appreciation for all Mike did for us (especially in such a short amount of time). From the beautiful ceremony music, to the flawless transitions from cocktail hour to the reception, to accommodating our most ridiculous requests (this includes music choices ranging from Foo Fighters to the Broadway Wicked Soundtrack to Spice Girls to Abba, and everything that falls in between), Mike made it all not only happen, but somehow made it fit together seamlessly. If you want to transform your wedding from normal to extraordinary, we highly recommend reaching out to Mike. He was a joy to work with and we would absolutely use him again for any future events that need a DJ!

    Thank you, thank you, thank you Mike for making such a joyous day possible.

    Flawless soundtrack for the entire event

    Mike did a wonderful job at our May wedding in Lake George. Leading up to the event he was friendly, responsive and helpful. He took time to meet with us and really understand everything we wanted for the evening. He worked directly with our wedding coordinator to work out some questions related to covid restrictions. The music at the event was perfect! Everyone was on the dance floor the entire time. Highly recommend and would hire again!

    Mike does it all!

    Mike is amazing - a true professional. From small details like having an e-document system for contracts and billing (getting married means writing too many checks) to having an online planning portal, Mike operates a reliable and organized business.
    We got married on a large farm, with the ceremony in a place with no power. Mike rushed equipment back and forth never missing a beat. Audio coordination was flawless all day.
    Lastly, Mike is great behind the mic - each song kept the energy up, the dancefloor never cleared! His announcements were right on time, and everyone was dead tired from dancing by the end of the night. I can't recommend Mike enough!

    An Awesome Experience

    He did an awesome job throughout the entire experience. We had originally planned to have our wedding in 2020, but unfortunately that month everything was shut down. He was very helpful and responsive when we were trying to figure out what do next.
    We have had multiple people say what an amazing DJ we picked for the wedding. He did a great job at pairing the music, so it kept everyone on the dance floor. I think the only reason people left the dance floor was because we were wearing masks and they needed some air.

    Kept our dance floor packed all night long!

    Mike was recommended to me by multiple brides that hired him and after seeing him pack the dance floor at a family members wedding I was sold! Mike is so professional and accommodating. My husband and I moved in to a new house, celebrated Christmas, and got married all in the same week so I was not able to provide Mike with much direction. He has great software that allows you to select songs you want played and do not want played but I did not have the time to fully utilize it. He was able to read the crowd and the dance floor without any help from me! He even met my husbands one request to play a Johnny Cash song without making it awkward or clearing the dance floor. He actually presented it in a way that was one of the highlights of our night (to my surprise)! He kept the night moving along and was so organized in lining us up and setting up the speeches, he even made sure our best man and maid of honor had something to toast with before handing over the mic. The dance floor was packed all night long and I danced the entire night. We received so many compliments on how much fun everyone had. Thank you Mike for helping make our night the perfect celebration!!

    DJ Mike Reilly rocks it

    Mike was incredible -- he met with me twice before my wedding and has a great way about him -- a nice kind personality but rocks it on the dance floor. He always responded to my questions immediately via email and dealt with my indecisiveness with ease. He was the DJ at my friend's wedding and was incredible there too. He arrived at the venue early to set up his equipment. He also played all of the music for our ceremony and was perfect. I would not change a thing about it -- he was able to download songs that were not on his extensive playlist. I highly recommend him! Sam Koolen

    Amazing and fun!

    Mike was such a big help for our special day. He met with us and made sure that he was going to play the type of music we like. Everyone danced the ENTIRE night at our wedding. Mike knew exactly what to play and when to play it so people would keep having fun. I’m so happy we got to work with him and I’d recommend him to anyone!!!!

    Highly Recommend!

    Mike was probably our easiest vendor to work with. He is the absolute nicest and a true professional. We live out of state, so the first time we met him was on our wedding day, but he didn't miss a beat. He is extremely responsive and accommodated all of our small requests and last minute changes without hesitation. His online planning tool makes it so easy to communicate what songs you want to be played (or not played), but he still reads the crowd and knows how to keep people on the dance floor! We highly recommend him! Thanks again, Mike!

    Great to Work With!

    We hired DJ Mike Riley for our wedding and were very happy with how things went. He provided an easy to use website where we could pick and choose Must Play and Do Not Play songs for the wedding.

    Mike was very easy to work with. He was always quick to get back to us and willing to meet in person at random times that worked with our schedule. He was a true professional.

    We highly recommend DJ Mike Riley. Thanks for everything Mike!
