Highly recommend
We are so glad we worked with James for our wedding–he was super flexible, responsive, and easy to work with. Our taste in music is all over the place and he was able to create a cohesive playlist with music from 5+ languages that worked for us, our friends, and family (not an easy task). Even other vendors told us that they thought the DJ was doing an incredible job!We are so glad we worked with James for our wedding–he was super flexible, responsive, and easy to work with.

How James Made Our Wedding Unforgettable (And Kept Everyone Dancing!)
Music and the venue were the biggest priorities for our wedding, so finding the right DJ was a top priority—especially since I’m a music lover and wanted someone who could truly bring our vision to life. James absolutely nailed it! He was organized, professional, and easy to work with from the start. He seamlessly mixed everything from soul and 90s R&B to early 2000s and modern hits, keeping the dance floor packed all night.
We had a special request for James to work with a live band performing a short set during the reception, and he coordinated with them effortlessly, ensuring the transition was flawless.

We had a special request for James to work with a live band performing a short set during the reception, and he coordinated with them effortlessly, ensuring the transition was flawless. James also proved to be a technical expert, handling sound design with multiple mics and making sure every detail—from speeches to music—sounded perfect. Plus, he delivered a full audio recording of the event within a week, letting us relive those amazing moments all over again.
Beyond his skills, James is just a fun, positive person to have around. He brought incredible energy to the celebration, and that made the experience even better. We couldn’t be happier with James—he played a huge role in making our wedding unforgettable! -

James Mulry was the best decision we made!
I have no notes for James Mulry. My wedding (devastatingly on Nov 7th, a day after the election results) was the best day of our lives, largely because of the artistry, professionalism, and overall excellent vibe that James was able to create on our day.
Firstly, I had an amazing introductory chat with him for nearly an hour where he joyfully and patiently answered all my questions and gave a detailed idea of how the night would go. He was so kind and present, I really felt like I was dealing with a peer and not just someone who wanted to book their next gig.

He was so kind and present, I really felt like I was dealing with a peer and not just someone who wanted to book their next gig.
James dealt with my EXCESSIVE Do Not Play list (I mistakenly made it way, WAY too long) and he handled it with creativity and joy; he was happy to take on the challenge and of course included all of my "must plays". He mixed a lot of fun latin music for me + my family, classic rock for my fiancé and I'd dads, plenty of modern pop dance music for us and our friends, and SOMEHOW managed to get everyone dancing to my fiancé's favorite band the Grateful Dead at the end. It was truly unreal, the diversity of genres he packed seamlessly into one night. Best playlist ever. (I still listen to it!) I didn't leave the dance floor all night, and it was largely packed for most of the night, ending on the highest note. Dream dance floor come true.
Also, he has a really great tone/delivery as he emcees. He's not too performative or trying to get everyone overly "hype" in any contrived way- he's warm, professional, and happy- but lets his talent and music do the work for him. It was spectacular.
I can't say enough good things about James Mulry. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding. -

There's no one better!
There are not enough good things to say about James! My husband and I got married at Hayfield in upstate New York this past September and James was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions we made.
From our very first call, James' energy felt like an exact mirror of our own and we knew we had to work with him. Aside from being SO good at what he does, he's also thoughtful, prepared and just a great person to work with from start to finish. He's the very definition of a consummate pro!

James completely understood the vibe we were after and made our wedding the most fun party we have ever been to. We had some specific requests for our multi-generational, multi-cultural guests (like samba and more) and James masterfully transitioned from song to song. The result was music that felt like the perfect reflection of us as a couple and a dance floor that was packed the entire night. He couldn't have nailed our vision better if he tried!
After the wedding, James provided us with a live recording of our wedding set, which included speeches and toasts. We've listened to it a number of times since and are immediately transported right back to the best night of our lives. James, THANK YOU for this gift we'll now always treasure and for being so amazing at what you do. We are so thankful to have found you and are even more so to have had the opportunity to work with you!! -

DJ James Brought the Party
We got married at the Brooklyn Grange in October of 2024 and had the best day, thanks in no small part to DJ James helping to create the perfect atmosphere and playlist. He is one of the Grange's recommended vendors and was very familiar with the setup of the space and managing the logistics of load-in. We had a bit of an eclectic wishlist for our songs, (including a custom mashup for our first dance) but also wanted to ensure all our guests had a good time and felt inspired to dance. James crafted a playlist wit the perfect balance and gave great recommendations for songs and order to avoid any jarring mood transitions. And of course the microphone, speakers, and sound all worked great for our ceremony and speeches. Highly recommend.We got married at the Brooklyn Grange in October of 2024 and had the best day, thanks in no small part to DJ James helping to create the perfect atmosphere and playlist.

Do yourself a favor and hire James for your wedding.
A packed dancefloor and high energy throughout the night was our number one priority, and it couldn’t have been done without James. From the second we signed on with him, he took the time to understand out taste in music, our vision for our wedding, and meticulously walked us through his process. In the weeks leading up to the day, he was in constant contact and made sure he was clear on every detail—even checking in with us periodically throughout the night to make sure we were enjoying ourselves.
You can tell James took time to read through our song requests, study it, and figure out exactly what would keep the energy high throughout the night.

You can tell James took time to read through our song requests, study it, and figure out exactly what would keep the energy high throughout the night. The dancefloor was quite literally never empty. Even down to the lighter music played during dinner—I don’t know how he did it but it’s as if he accessed our most listened to songs on Spotify and managed to curate a playlist of all our favorite music.
Looking back, there’s not a single thing we would have asked James to do differently. He understood the vision, he read the room incredibly well, and we received dozens of comments from guests about how much they loved the music. All around perfect DJ, and a really great person to top it off. Wedding planning can be stressful, so make your life easier and hire James. It will be the easiest and best decision you’ll make.

We love James!
We met James through our wedding planner friend and were so glad we did! We loved working with James leading up to our big day (so calm, cool, and collected) and dancing through the night. He was so thorough in every step of the day and we really appreciated how he incorporated Chinese songs for my family. James was also a great MC, keeping the night moving forward as we had to hit a few cultural traditions. If Rule of Thirds is your wedding venue, hire him!

A perfect wedding DJ!
James knocked it out of the park. He took our suggestions, mixed in some fun surprises, and kept everyone on the dance floor all night. He was super communicative and easy to talk to leading up to the night. We had full confidence that he would be great and then he was somehow even better than that! Couldn't recommend him more.James knocked it out of the park. He took our suggestions, mixed in some fun surprises, and kept everyone on the dance floor all night.

Everything we could’ve asked for and more!
James is the best! My wife and I had the time of our lives working with James. Music was an incredibly important part of our wedding, as we come from families rooted in music and dancing. He carefully and meticulously worked with us to create a playlist that would allow our friends and family to enjoy themselves on our special day. James is highly professional, thorough, and detailed. We married at the Prospect Park Boathouse, and he knew any and everything about the space. You are in safe and talented hands. Cannot recommend James enough. He had our friends and family partying and dancing till the very end!James is the best! My wife and I had the time of our lives working with James.

The g.o.a.t!
James was absolutely incredible to work with! He created the BEST wedding dancing floor one could ask for! We got married at an untraditional wedding venue, which is a club, House of Yes in Brooklyn. Going off the main-stream event style scared us a bit, but James totally understood how to make this still feel like a wedding, but the party we wanted! It was hard for my husband and I to put together a list of songs we like, which sounds silly, but James really listened to our small list we put together, our vision we had and took it and made our dreams come true! James had ALL ages dancing on the dance floor- the entire night- which created incredible memories! THANK YOU, JAMES!James was absolutely incredible to work with!

Made the wedding of my dreams come true
James exceeded all expectations we had. I'm super picky about music and a very particular vision for what I wanted with music (no cliche wedding music, edm heavy, throw in disco classics, keep the crowd going, etc.). James took all my feedback and playlists without complaining about how overbearing I was being and truly put together the best mix of all time. On top of that he brought in a disco ball to light up the barn we were in at M&D Farm! M&D was 3 hours out of NYC and he drove out from Brooklyn to come DJ for us. I can't say enough good thing about James. If you're looking for a DJ hire James!!!James exceeded all expectations we had.

The Amazing DJ James Mulry
We cannot recommend DJ James Mulry enough! We got married at the Ace Hotel Brooklyn, and it was the perfect day in big part due to him. Although he was only DJ'ing the reception, he was at the venue before the ceremony, provided a microphone for the officiant, and had a cocktail hour playlist ready in case our live music fell through. Amazing! For the reception, he was an excellent emcee and helped the event flow perfectly. He was very flexible in incorporating the order of events that we wanted (an early dance set, table game, etc.) and adhered to the timeline. He very much incorporated our music preferences and we got so many compliments on our music for the whole night (both dinner and dancing)! Also a super sweet and warm guy, definitely book him!We cannot recommend DJ James Mulry enough! We got married at the Ace Hotel Brooklyn, and it was the perfect day in big part due to him.

His systems for preparing for your wedding makes the entire planning process fun and stress-free. His vast experience and knowledge gave us full confidence in him, and he was able to offer tips that improved our planning and the experience of the day.
A few (of the many!) reasons why James shines: he’s able to execute the timeline without things ever feeling rushed. He’s attuned to and able to manage interpersonal dynamics that may arise. He has stellar equipment and expertise in handling tricky logistical setups. And, on top of it all, he’s able to craft set lists based on your tastes, but with surprises you didn’t even know you wanted (the seamless transition from the White Lotus theme into JLo’s “Waiting for Tonight” during the dance set was bananas).
Our wedding was at Eastwind Hotel in Windham, New York in June 2023, all events were outdoors, in three different locations. It was not the easiest setup, but James arrived early and handled all the load-in himself. He worked seamlessly with the other vendors: providing audio inputs for the videographer, coordinating with the planner to make sure there was amplification throughout the day. He brought all of his own equipment: great quality mics, speakers, extension cords, etc. He also handled curveballs that came his way: the reception was outside under a tent, and about 30 minutes in it started raining. James kept the party going while moving all of his gear out of the rain. We were completely unaware that he had to multitask, only realizing how brilliantly he had handled the inclement weather after the evening was over!
Icing on the cake: the day after the wedding, he sent us audio files of the ceremony, the toasts, and the music sets from the cocktail hour, reception, and the dance party. The audio quality is phenomenal, and listening to the recordings brings us right back to the day. It’s such a gift.
On top of it all, James is kind and thoughtful and a total joy to work with. We can’t wait to go to his next set in Brooklyn! Hire him! You’ll be grateful you did. -

Excellent Music Taste, Even Better Service
As a music industry professional, the pressure to get the music just right for the wedding was incredibly important for our wedding - especially for a 250-person party 3 hours from NYC in Coxsackie, NY. Not only did James provide the best curation and sound quality we (and our guests) have ever experienced at a wedding, but his thoughtful and calm demeanor provided us the experience we could’ve asked for. He Is truly special.
From a curation standpoint, he worked with us to develop the overall sound and feel that fit our tastes but also those of our diverse audience, without relying on the line dances and “wedding hits” that so many other DJs lazily rely on.

He Is truly special.
From a curation standpoint, he worked with us to develop the overall sound and feel that fit our tastes but also those of our diverse audience, without relying on the line dances and “wedding hits” that so many other DJs lazily rely on. What felt like a hopeless endeavor because tangible with James’ help, and ultimately very successful. Friends and family, old and young, couldn’t believe how great the music was! I mean this with all sincerity: I’ve never seen a dance floor so packed with so much energy. Shirts being ripped off, ties being connected for a limbo line, songs being sung like anthems. Everything we wanted and more.
There were a few potential pitfalls with the audio for our wedding. The ceremony was outside next to the Hudson River, which frequents many motorboats and jet skis that could make our service inaudible. Also, the reception hall was large and not necessary built with acoustics in mind. James went the extra mile to make sure ensure the sound quality would be audible for everyone. He arrived early to run 100+ feet of audio cable between the main space and atrium, set up satellite speakers for background level on the sides of the room, used bigger speakers for the ceremony, and even bought extra gear. These pitfalls never became a factor, even with a parade of boats driving by during the ceremony.
Most importantly, James personable and calm demeanor eliminated any worries we had. He MC’d the important moments, chatted with friends and family, and came over to see if we were having a good time. His personality is the reason we picked him in the first place, but he exceeded our lofty expectations.
I wish you a fantastic wedding, and if you’re looking for stellar music and an even better experience then James needs to be your DJ. -

James is the man!!
James is absolutely amazing! He was recommended to us by our planner and we are so glad that we went with him. We are from different cultures and we wanted songs from both our cultures incorporated into our wedding. During our first meeting James was giving us recommendations based on our cultural backgrounds that we didn't even think about! It really showed how diverse his portfolio is. Also, his worksheet made our job so easy when it was time for us to give him the songs that we wanted.

His choice of songs made every generations in the wedding dance! James is very accommodating and will be there for you. Lastly, we never thought we would be able to listen to the amazing speeches given at the wedding after the event. However, James recorded them and sent them to us! We will cherish those recordings forever! -

Best DJ Ever!
My wife and I just got married at the Wythe Hotel this past weekend. Last year, when we were interviewing DJ's, we liked talking with James the best by far. He was extremely personable, easy to talk to, and a true professional throughout the entire experience. He was probably our favorite vendor we worked with during the entire wedding! He really knew how to read the room and play the right songs and the right time. And all of the timing, from the ceremony, to the speeches, to the reception were perfect. Highly recommended, and I would definitely hire him for my next wedding (just kidding :D)!My wife and I just got married at the Wythe Hotel this past weekend.

Best dance party
Hiring James Mulry was one of the best decisions we could have ever made for our wedding. James kept the dance floor alive the entire night, with both families and our friends. We especially loved his recommendations, and the process leading up the wedding was very thorough. James is a pro, and ready to answer any possible questions with a number of thoughtful solutions. I think his background in nightlife helps give James an advantage, and he's the perfect choice if you want a fun contemporary wedding that isn't traditional. We had a blast dancing to everything from Pixies to Sophie to Weezer to Donna Summer. James really spent time getting to know us and our musical taste beforehand,...Hiring James Mulry was one of the best decisions we could have ever made for our wedding.

James really spent time getting to know us and our musical taste beforehand, and this was very clear in his DJ set during the reception. We couldn't recommend him enough. If you want your guests to be talking about how fun your wedding was for weeks, definitely hire James Mulry! -

The G.O.A.T
I think I'm still recovering from dancing all night at my wedding from almost two weeks ago, and it's all thanks to James. His professionalism, communication, attention to detail, fun energy and knowledge of the wedding industry is unmatched, and he helped us throw the best New Year's Eve party we could have ever imagined. James did not miss a single music cue and kept our guests on the dance floor literally ALL NIGHT. He is the best! Do not look any further for your DJ needs—hire James!!!!I think I'm still recovering from dancing all night at my wedding from almost two weeks ago, and it's all thanks to James.

Coolest and Best DJ, Absolute Master
Dear reader, this is a no-brainer. Hiring James to DJ our wedding at Threes Brewing in Gowanus was the best decision we made of all the hundreds of choices we had to make. He knows all the music in the world, but he's interested in your taste and wants to reflect it. He knows how to set the mood when it's time to relax and mingle, and he knows how to keep the party on the dance floor. He's like a puppet master. He is ORGANIZED. Easily best organized vendor we worked with. Top-notch, light-speed communicator. He is smooth and can manage the flow of the night with confidence and style. He does absolutely nothing to deliberately call attention...Dear reader, this is a no-brainer.

He does absolutely nothing to deliberately call attention to himself, but his excellence just kind of demands everyone's admiration. He looks amazing. He was absolutely the coolest person at our wedding, which you definitely want in your DJ. Each time a new song came on, that was some guest's cue to come up and tell us this was honestly the best DJ they'd ever witnessed. It really happened like eight different times throughout the night, maybe more. The icing on the cake was that when our plan to stay at Threes for the after party fell through, James shifted into overdrive researching alternative places for us to land, calling bars, and communicating the new plan to the guests. We ended up walking to a spot we'd never heard of and it worked out perfectly. He wasn't even DJing the after party! He was just making the night perfect like it was his whole job. If you're still reading this, just do yourself a favor and check this one off your to-do list. If James isn't available on your particular date, maybe pick a new date. -

The bessstttt
If you want your guests on the dance floor all night - you NEED to hire James! My husband and I were picky with who we wanted to DJ because they play such an integral part in the night. We knew we wanted who could manage a crowd and play some amazing music without overpowering our event (ya know what I mean). We met James through our wedding planner and my husband and I instantly fell in love with him. I swear we were talking about how great we thought he was for days after our first meeting. James was so organized, thoughtful, and friendly throughout the entire planning process. He reminded us of deadlines for music choices,...

James was so organized, thoughtful, and friendly throughout the entire planning process. He reminded us of deadlines for music choices, provided lists for inspiration and listening, and was incredible about merging our taste in music into something cohesive and fun (we like A LOT of different genres). On the day of, it felt like we had a close friend DJing for us. To no surprise, the dance floor was packed the entire night and we had people commenting all night how amazing the music was (and some maybe liked James a little too much LOL 😉). From reminding me to eat, to transitioning from location to location seamlessly, to laughing with us about a wild guest - James was really just the best. I’m not kidding when I say everyone was on the dance floor, even our “I can’t dance” guests! Thank you James for everything! We miss ya! If you’re looking for the perfect DJ - look no further. -

10/10 Highly Recommend!
We were so happy we went with James for all things wedding music. Having never planned a wedding before, my husband and I were completely lost about the flow, timelines, logistics, etc. Throughout the entire process with James, he was so professional and collaborative, answered all of our questions, worked directly with our ceremony musicians the day-of, and went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect. As a couple, we opted to forgo a few typical wedding ceremony and reception traditions and James was able to not only be accommodating to our wishes, but also offer innovative and fun suggestions for alternatives.

My boomer father (who until our wedding assumed all DJs looked like they were ready to play a 7th grade gymnasium dance in a flat billed hat and jeans) was probably the most shocked when James showed up in a tux looking snappy, dapper, and professional. His vibes and appearance absolutely matched his level of service. Guests are STILL months later complimenting our music and seamless flow of the entire night, all thanks to James! -

Best DJ of all time
We absolutely LOVED James and were so glad that he was a part of our wedding at The Castle by Marlow Events in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Not only does he have exceptional music taste but he was so easy to work with through the whole process. He felt like a friend, super supportive and willing to make it all happen. He was also extremely professional, you can tell he knows exactly what he’s doing on all fronts – from planning to playlist making to emceeing to making sure all of the dads knew how to speak correctly into a microphone.

He was able to take my eclectic music taste and make it into an experience that all of our guests loved. I also really appreciated that he vibe-checked with me a few times throughout the night (and gave me final approval on shooting down a cheesy song request that he correctly guessed I would not have enjoyed). And his dance party skills are unmatched. To quote my friend who came up to me mid-party, “All chutes, no ladders.” Could have danced all night. Highly recommend James to anyone considering him. 100000/10. -
