    Danced the night away!

    Lee was nothing short of fantastic to work with. We hired him to officiate our ceremony and DJ for our reception, he excelled at both! Lee provides reasonable packages based on what you need and is super responsive if you have any questions or concerns throughout the process. The ceremony felt special and personalized but not cheesy! We had a substantial list of must-play and do-not-play songs, and Lee was so gracious in helping us craft a fun playlist that was true to us. He is an excellent MC and kept our guests on the dance floor the entire night! We had a great experience with Lee and cannot recommend him enough.

    Lee is amazing!

    I really wanted Lee for our wedding but he was already booked. He actually took the time to ask some trusted DJs he knows in the area if they were available and called me back several days later to let me know one was open and gave me their contact info. Just who does that!?! He is super sweet, and clearly goes above and beyond in all he does! Wedding planning is stressful and to have someone take time out to do that just made my day!!! Thanks Lee! :)

    The Best Wedding DJ in the Capital Region!

    We had Lee DJ our wedding on September 16th, and he did an OUTSTANDING job! Lee was recommended by our photographer, Paul Saunders, and we decided on him after learning that he could play keyboard live during our ceremony - which he did an amazing job of! We had a meeting at his home office a few weeks before the wedding to go over the schedule of the day and our song requests. Lee was super helpful in the planning process, and was a phenomenal MC, moving our wedding along smoothly and providing the best entertainment we could imagine! Our guests danced the night away and continue to talk about how great of a DJ he is! We would HIGHLY recommend Lee for your wedding ceremony and reception music/entertainment.

    AMAZING experience!!

    DJ Lee was such an incredible guy to work with from day 1! He was responsive, helpful and easy to talk to. He truly made the planning experience easier! Although our wedding day had some rain, DJ Lee never batted an eye and still gave our guests the most amazing experience. He also was our officiant, and did an incredible job marrying us and making the day special! Highly suggest hiring DJ Lee :)

    The best dj

    We lost our original DJ when we postponed our wedding day due to a scheduling conflict but are so thankful that he recommended DJ Lee to take over! He was so responsive to both us and my mother-in-law, who had a surprise for my husband for their dance. The dance floor was never empty. He got exactly what kind of mix of music we were going for and crushed it. Everyone the next day kept telling us how great he was. My husband and I can’t speak highly enough about his services. Do yourself a favor and hire him for your wedding!

    Amazing fusion wedding

    We hired Lee to DJ our fairly large 200 person wedding. I'm Indian and my husband is American, so it was a fusion wedding, mixing our two cultures. Of course that meant that Lee had to keep both sides of the family on the dance floor, and he did this without any hiccups! Lee had done a couple of Indian events before, but I helped him out with some Bollywood music playlists beforehand. He worked with our schedule and did zoom/phone meetings as we were not local to the area. He was so flexible and accommodated all our requests and even last minute changes to schedule etc.
    All night long during our reception, nobody wanted to get off the dance floor! It's been two months since our wedding, and our guests are still telling us what an incredible time they had, and how awesome our DJ was.
    I would recommend DJ Lee to anybody looking for someone for an event!

    DJ Waddell did a great job with our event. He kept enthusiasm going and curated the music exactly to our liking, as well as being very friendly and helpful throughout the planning process. I highly recommend him!

    DJ Lee Waddell is the best!

    I would highly recommend DJ Lee Waddell to anyone planning an upcoming wedding. Lee was the DJ for my sister's wedding back in 2011 and we knew he would be perfect for our wedding as well. He was organized, professional, and very responsive during the planning process. He created a wonderful mix of music at our reception that was a combination of our "must plays" with his own choices based on his great ability to read the room. Our guests were dancing all night long. We also had Lee play live piano during dinner and he did such a wonderful job. We highly recommend Lee!

    So unique!

    We were married August 2021 in Schenectady. I now consider Lee a good friend of mine. He was flexible rescheduling our wedding due to the pandemic. His piano skills are phenomenal. We even had a guest get up and sing during dinner while Lee played the piano which was unexpected. Lee was able to play a song for the guest to sing to. When my husband forgot the steps to the cotton eye joe Lee helped lead the dance by getting on the floor and dancing along. His MC skills made everyone smile and laugh even when I threw the bouquet and it hit the ceiling.

    Highly recommend!

    We selected DJ Lee Waddell based on his excellent Wedding Wire reviews. Even after reading such stellar reviews, Lee exceeded our expectations at our wedding reception! He was the perfect emcee in that he kept people engaged (and dancing) without being cheesy or stealing the show. Before our reception, we talked with Lee on the phone a couple of times to go over the order of events and special dances and the night went seamlessly just based on those short conversations. Beforehand we gave him a short list of 'must play' songs and based on our recommendations he played a lot of other songs that night that we also love. He even accommodated a last minute request for a mother-son dance. So many of our guests came up to us during and after the reception to say how much they enjoyed the DJ. Lee really gave our reception a fun atmosphere that we'll remember and cherish for many years to come.

    Lee kept the party going all night long!

    Lee was amazing to work with from the very beginning. From our first meeting with him he made us feel like we were in good hands and that he would make sure our reception was the dance party we envisioned. On our wedding day he did not disappoint. Lee played songs that kept people on the dance floor for the entire evening. People were raving about how good the DJ was! Thanks again to Lee for making our wedding day such a success!

    DJ Lee is the best!

    Lee is talented, personable and truly loves his job. Lee was a pleasure to work with from our initial meeting throughout our wedding day. He made us feel at ease through the planning process and made our vision come to life. We had Lee play piano at our ceremony and he played songs by Ed Sheeran and Jim Brickman. It was beautiful. He also played great songs at our reception and was open to any requests! DJ Lee is the best!

    Family friendly party until the very end!

    DJ Lee was AWESOME!
    Our wedding was at Hunter Mountain and he handled everything from our ceremony, to the cocktail hour, and the reception which had an active dance floor to the very end!

    DJ Lee was very clear from the beginning on what we should expect, that was super important. He told us we wouldn't hear from him until about a month before, he would send us paperwork to prepare ideas of the music we wanted for the ceremony and reception. He said he would talk to us and go over everything we submitted about two weeks before, and we would then confirm everything again the day of in case we had any changes we wanted to make. That right there says just how dependable, experienced, and flexible he is.

    After our phone consult we were very confident in DJ Lee. He had all of our music that we wanted and everything was lined up perfectly. The day of, our music for the ceremony was spot on, and of excellent quality! Especially for being on top of a mountain.

    For the cocktail hour & reception we wanted it to be family friendly, and we listen to country (not pop country), which he accommodated and mixed in "oldies" hits, buffalo area favorites, and some early 2000's pop throw backs (super fun!). He took requests and played music that absolutely everyone enjoyed. My grandparents even stayed at our reception to the very end because they were enjoying the mix that DJ Lee was playing.

    We had a full dance floor the entire night. My husband, who I have never actually gotten on a dance floor before, was out there dancing with me and our friends and family. That was something that I NEVER thought would happen. DJ Lee worked a miracle there.

    He did an awesome job of spreading out all of the fun "events" during a reception. Our first dance was right when we entered for the reception, we enjoyed dinner and a little bit of dancing before the parent dances, then we enjoyed more dances and a few drinks before doing the bouquet & garter tosses. Even during our cake cutting (which was small because we had a sundae bar for our guests) he was commentating and made that so much, even instigated a little frosting fun!

    His personality is awesome, he is attentive, and he is a pro at what he does. He pays attention to the details and gives your wedding the party it deserves!

    We cannot thank DJ Lee enough for how awesome he was!!

    Accommodating, Cheerful and Professional

    We love DJ Lee! From the first email exchange Lee was so kind and and great communicator. He replied quickly to messages, and timed our meeting perfectly. He got to know us as a couple and went above and beyond to make our wedding special. We cannot thank Lee enough. He was great with song suggestions, and is a talented pianist. We love DJ Lee!

Thank you Lee for all that you did we will forever refer you to all of our friends and family!

    Lee was AMAZING! We loved working with him. He was very responsive and professional! He asked us about every detail and played all the songs we wanted and found the songs he didnt already have. He was so good at reading our crowd. Dancing is very important to me and my family and he did a great job at keeping everyone going! Very reasonably priced and probably worth more! He also provided the sound and music for our ceremony outside and everything could be heard very well!

    Lee was awesome! We booked his service about a year out and he was so helpful! We live out of town so we mainly emailed back and forth after an initial phone call to “meet”. We met with him in person the week of the wedding to finalize basically everything and he took lots of notes and was very prepared. He was very welcoming when we sat with him and we knew we chose the right guy! Day of he was the best! We had a few little hiccups which he dealt with very professionally and we had to make some timeline changes that he was super flexible. Our guests enjoyed the variety of music he played and he got every song we requested ahead of time in! We were so happy with our decision to have Lee DJ our wedding :)

    Bring the dance party!

    Not only did DJ Lee keep the party going and people up on their feet, but he was a real pleasure to work with. We met Lee a few months prior to our wedding and from the get-go he was really interested in making sure our expectations for our day were met. We had planned to show a video, and Lee helped us get that up and running at our venue (after some panic about the audio not working!) He played a really nice mix of songs and worked off a list we gave him. People were up and dancing for a good part of the day (including Grandma and Grandpa)! Once my husband and I started, we didn’t really stop! Thanks to Lee, we really had an amazing day. We would definitely recommend DJ Lee.

    Lee was truly amazing and made our wedding a wonderful celebration. Guests are still talking about our wedding and the amazing time that they had. Lee met with us and made us feel so comfortable and took the time to meet all of our needs. He was also very flexible when things did not always go as planned,

    Lee made our wedding day run so smoothly! He was so accommodating and listened to all of our requests prior to our big day. When the day came, he had everyone on the dance floor the whole time. He also played the perfect music to make our ceremony special for us. He's down to earth and easy to talk to. We were so happy that he was a part of our wedding day!

    Lee Waddell was the DJ at our daughter's wedding on June 10, 2017. Lee was great at keeping us on track for all the special moments the bride and groom needed to incorporate, He was a great announcer and responsive to requests, and was excellent at reading the crowd to sustain the energy on the dance floor.
    Lee is down to earth and very easy to talk to, and as soon as our daughter and now son-in-in-law had their first phone conversation with him, they knew immediately Lee was the one for them!
    We highly recommend him!!
