    October 2025 Wedding

    We hired Joe from Dynamite DJs for our October 2025 wedding, and we highly recommend him as he did a great job and was extremely easy to work with. He has extensive experience and worked directly with us to seamlessly handle and narrate our wedding from the ceremony through the end of the night. Again, highly recommended!

    Definitely Dynamite!

    Joe was easy to talk to, helpful throughout the whole planning process, attentive during the ceremony and reception and great at giving us small reminders so we didn’t lose sight of events we included in our day. I’d recommend him over and over again.

    Highly recommend!

    Joe was our wedding DJ, and we couldn’t have loved his service more! He followed all of our requests perfectly, and he did amazing with decisions we left up to him. He started our exit song, Happy Together, at the chorus instead of just the beginning when we exited the aisle, and replayed it at our entrance to the reception when we had told him we had no ideas for it. He was very receptive to crowd, changing the songs when the dance floor got too quiet, and even got our parents dancing! Great vibes all around, hire them for your wedding!!

    Awesome DJ!

    We worked with Joe at our recent wedding, and he was amazing. He took all of our requests, did a great job of staying on top of the timeline for the days, and was very responsive throughout our planning process. The price point of the services was great too. We would work with Joe again in a heartbeat!

    Amazing and professional

    Due to unforeseen events taking place I had to cancel my wedding. He was very responsive and helped me sell my contract. Even from the beginning he was very excellent in communication. I’m sad I wasn’t able to have him dj my wedding, but he made it so easy in getting my money back and helping me.

    Absolutely Amazing

    My husband and I loved working with them. They helped with coordination because I didn’t have a day of coordinator and the wedding went by seamlessly. The selection of music was awesome and the guests loved it. Many people at the wedding loved it! 100% recommend.

    Would recommend

    I had Jerry with Dynamite DJs. He was great! I was able to pick a lot of the songs I wanted/Didn't want played ahead of time through a system, and he made sure to meet with us a few times to make sure everything was perfect for our day. Would definitely recommend!

    Wonderful DJ service!

    Working with Dynamite DJs for our wedding was one of the best decisions that we made! Jerry and Joe were both very responsive when we were trying to decide on a DJ to hire. Their down-to-earth and information-filled emails made them an easy choice for us to make. On our wedding day, Jerry arrived early to set up and he ended up making our day perfect! We had told him that we wanted our reception to be a big party with all of our guests out on the dance floor and that’s what we got! He played the music we asked him to while sprinkling in some other fun songs and taking requests from the guests. Jerry made sure that we knew what we were doing at every step of the way. Before our grand entrance into the reception, he made sure that my husband and I, as well as the matron of honor and best man, knew when to come in and where to go after. Honestly, any nerves that we had going into the reception were quickly erased once we talked to Jerry. I would, without a doubt, hire Dynamite DJs again and again!

    Very professional & accommodating!

    Joe is extremely helpful and professional! The website is easy to use and set up very nicely so that you can put what songs you want for each separate event (first dance, walk, father/daughter). We hired him for our wedding, but due to unforeseen circumstances we unfortunately had to cancel. Joe was extremely understanding and accommodating and gave us the option to sell our contract so that we didn’t lose all of what we paid. He is very responsive and a great vendor!

    Wonderful service for your ceremony and reception

    Jerry was the DJ for our wedding and he was just wonderful. To begin, Dynamite DJ's packages are clear and affordable, and booking them is easy. They have a very convenient website available to you to request music ahead of time. Jerry communicated quickly and clearly and assisted us in finalizing a timeline in the week leading up to the wedding. It was obvious that he had experience working at weddings. On the day of, he was able to provide high quality music and mics for both our outdoor ceremony (which was quite a hike from the venue) and our indoor reception. Music was calm and mellow while we were eating and socializing, but once it was time to party, Jerry had the dance-floor bumping. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend Dynamite DJ's for your wedding needs!

    Stop looking, book Joe!

    Joe with Dynamite DJs is simply the best of the best. From our first conversation, I knew he was a pro. He was endlessly responsive, informative, and flexible. He always both honored our vision of the day and gave great advice from experience. Day of, he was seamless. Our day was emotional as we were missing my late father, and Joe was so kind and supportive as we wove in speeches and songs to remember my Dad. He even made sure to video the special rendition of 12 days of Christmas that we sang. We are huge dancers and wanted an amazing party, and Joe certainly delivered. All this for the best price we could find. We are simply wowed and forever grateful.

    Very professional!

    DJ Joe was amazing and one of our favorite vendors! I knew from the day I booked him that he’ll be amazing. He’s very affordable considering the things included in the package (uplights, dance lights, TVs with personalized photos, microphone, etc). Music selection and planning was easily done through their website. We had our ceremony outdoor and our reception indoor. I loved that he had a different set up for the ceremony and the music was loud enough for everyone to hear as well as our vows (I had been to other weddings and people can barely hear the bridal procession music and the vows). The only down side was that we got to discuss the event during the week of and I didn’t know I can show photos through the TV and didn’t have enough time to compile them. Nonetheless, my husband and I were very impressed of his professionalism! Definitely consider him for your event!

    Professional and AMAZING!

    Joe with Dynamite DJ's was an amazing vendor to work with. From prompt email replies, easy online forms to fill out song requests, and last minute changes on my end, Dynamite DJ's checked every box. The music and lights were great, and my guests had a wonderful time dancing. Joe even added fun sound effects during toasts and worked with my coordinator to make sure the night ran smoothly. I'd recommend this company to anyone!

    Professional and Crowd Pleasing

    We loved having Joe as our DJ for our Seven Springs wedding! He was responsive, professional, and kept the crowd going with great music all night. He strikes a great balance of making announcements and making sure guests know what is going on, while also being relatively inconspicuous and not making the event about himself. Couldn't have asked for anything else! Thanks, Joe!

    Great DJ for wedding

    Jerry with Dynamite DJ's did a fantastic job with our wedding! He was very responsive and organized when it came to our song selections, and he played everything we wanted during the reception! Their prices are reasonable as well. Overall, great DJ choice for your ceremony and reception!

    Jerry from Dynamite DJs was amazing. Our wedding night had an untraditional schedule, and we had very specific instructions for the songs that we chose. We also had a last minute change to the father-daughter dance. Jerry did not miss a beat. He went the extra mile every step of the way. One of my favorite moments of the night was when he heard my father mention my husband's love for Penn State in his speech, and he played the Penn State fight song immediately after. I got married in October 2016, and my friends still talk about how great the music was at my wedding. I cannot recommend them enough.

    We hired Joe as our DJ. He did an outstanding job. He played the ceremony music and the reception music. He played what I requested, made appropriate choices for guest requests (we had kids there), and personalized everything that I asked for. I was very pleased with his professionalism. He knows what he's doing.

    Joe was incredible! This was the easiest choice to make when it came to picking our wedding vendors. We had a meeting with him at Starbucks and after only an hour with him, my now husband and I decided he was the perfect fit for us. He gave us some ideas for ceremony music and has a very organized website for us to plan out the music and write the wedding party down on. He was so responsive to e-mails and would sometimes respond within minutes. I never waited more then an hour for a reply from him. He is just very organized and played all the right songs. He was a great MC and kept our guests very informed. He was great all around and extremely professional. Also, his prices are very reasonable.

    Jerry was absolutely amazing! He was professional and so easy to work with, despite how difficult we felt like we made things. He was out of town the week before our wedding, but was still so willing to tweak little details to help make our day perfect. He was easily our best vendor for our wedding day--we have absolutely no complaints. Once the dancing started it NEVER stopped! Our friends and family have raved about how much fun they had. Jerry gave our wedding party and my husband and I great directions on how to get a good reaction from our guests, and he had little props (like a mini blow up guitar) to help make more fun! You cannot go wrong with him!

    Joe was fantastic! He made the day of wedding effortless for us! He played everything we wanted, took control of some of the day of chaos, and was awesome to work with!! All at a great price, he was the most reasonable, well reviewed DJ we found and on top we saved $100 just for paying in full upfront! I would definitely recommend him!

    Joe was fantastic! He gave us a great price for having a sunday wedding, and had excellent communication throughout the process. The online forms made it easy to plan our event, and he called to verify information prior to the wedding. We used a venue with outdoor space and moved around quite a bit during the evening between different locations at the venue, he was so accommodating to our plans and his equipment was so small it was almost not noticeable while still providing great sound quality.

    Joe was great! He has a special website that you place your songs on for what you would like played at the wedding and any special requests you have to be played during the wedding. He did a great job and worked really well with our wedding planner in Richmond Bridal Consulting. He offers deals as well with paying his fee up front. I would definitely recommend him again. He did an awesome job at the wedding and the reception. Great service for a great price!

    We used Joe Bowman of Dynamite DJ's for our daughter's wedding and were very pleased. You can go on line to his website several weeks before the event and choose the songs you want him to play as well as those you don't want. He will accomodate special requests. He did a great job. His set-up was perfect for the small venue; he helped steer everything in the right direction and everybody seemed to have a great time. We really appreciated his easy-going manner and professionalism. First class.

    Joe was great! He called a few days before to make sure he knew every detail, especially name pronunciations (seems like a little thing, but it's pretty important!). He also pretty much helped me plan my reception, since I had no idea what I was doing. He was incredibly helpful, the music was great, and he kept the party going! Definitely worth every penny!

    Working with Joe was fantastic! First of all, you cannot beat his price at his quality – it's unreal. Joe was very professional, organized, and polite. He thoughts of things and had plans for things that I had not at all considered – like the order for the entry and where we were lining up. His transitions for the music and selection based on the crowd and mood were wonderful, and he was able to seemlessly include special song shout-outs and instructions for guests that I had asked for. Guests were on the dance floor all through the reception and we all had a great time!

    Jerry was all that you could ask for in a DJ and more! He was so easy to work with and was very prompt in his responses to our emails. He went out of his way to make sure he understood what we wanted in terms of music and announcements and even made himself available to meet with us again a few weeks before the wedding just to make sure everything was on track. We received numerous compliments from our guests on what a great DJ he was but the true test was the fact that the dance floor was full all night long! We had a blast dancing all night and we know that it was due in large part to having chosen the right DJ! Thanks, Jerry!

    Dynamite DJ's is awesome! I picked them because of their great price and got way more than my moneys worth. They answered questions extremely quickly, I was even getting responses to e-mails at 11pm at night! They have an interactive website so you can put in all of your info, song requests, and even songs that you don't want played. Their sound system was great, they music played very clearly and they even bring lights for a light show during the reception. Great DJ at a great price!

    I am so glad we chose Dynamite DJs for the entertainment at our wedding reception. Joe Bowman took the time to keep in touch we me as we shopped around for DJs and even offered advice!! After deciding on Dynamite DJs, I was very pleased at how easy it was to stay in contact with Joe. As far as the reception, it was amazing!! Joe kept us on track the whole time. My husband and I were able to go dance and mingle knowing Joe would let us know when we had to cut the cake, give toasts, etc. I would highly recommend Dynamite DJs, Joe Bowman in particular, to anyone seeking an afforable and dependable DJ who knows how to work a crowd and work well with super busy brides!!

    The number 1 DJ

    Joe was outstanding! He coordinated my entire wedding day to make the day entirely stress free. He checks in with you constantly and always makes sure he's planning the best experience for your special day. Honestly, I would not have survived my wedding day without him and my day certainly would not have been as scheduled without him. By far, the BEST DJ I'm the world.

    Joe from Dynamite DJ's was fantastic at our wedding. He knew exactly how to keep the crowd on the dance floor, even though I had not specified any music for him to play. He was always extremely quick to answer emails, which I loved! He could of been a bit more cordial in those emails, but I can understand being a busy person and needing to be quick and to the point. The price for the service is unbeatable. I highly recommend Dynamite DJs for any occasion!

    Jerry Huddleston was our DJ for the reception, and he did an absolutely outstanding job from start to finish. We wanted a very specific playlist, and he was very agreeable to playing only our music choices---and also updating the list up until the last week. He also surprised us by giving us a copy of all the music we requested. He was involved--announcing the first dance, toasts, etc--but not overly so, and definitely not "cheesy." He maintained professionalism throughout the reception. Also, his music system was very impressive---it was the same volume (not too loud, not too soft) from the front to the back of the room. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great wedding DJ.

    Great DJ, at a great price! He played all of our requested songs, acted as an MC for the reception events, and kept our dancing crowd happy.

    Joe was awesome! He was very professional and was always quick to respond to my e-mails. We were looking for a DJ that was not super cheesy - Joe was the man! He had a great playlist that got many people out on the dance floor. I would recommend Dynamite DJ's without reservation to any bride.

    Awesome, affordable and professional DJ when it came to planning the ceremonial music. Didn't need to be at the rehearsal unless you wanted him to be. Answered all the questions that I had in timely manner no matter what time of day it was. Very flexible during the activities of the reception as we got off track and a little behind with some things but he kept everything running very smoothly.

    The only reason why I didn't give Dynamite DJs a 5 star rating was because I felt like the flow and mix from one song to another could have been better when it was time to dance but other than that everyone enjoyed themselves.

    Overall, a great experience! The only negative was that he took a little while to respond the week of the wedding, but all other communication was incredibly timely. Joe has a great professional demeanor, and he's very kind - he got my groom and me drinks the minute we arrived at the reception. He was a great DJ, and the price can't be beat!

    Dynamite DJ's is an average wedding DJ at a great price. I would recommend them to a bride who is looking for a bargain and can sacrifice a little on the music.

    The value of Dynamite DJs seemed to be really good compared to other DJs in the Richmond area. Joe did a great job with the music at our reception and wasn't cheesy at all. My only issues were that he was very late to our meetings, he didn't seem prepared for the meetings in the sense that he was unsure if he had met us before even though it was the week of the wedding (and we had met him for a meeting when we booked him) and the ceremony music wasn't timed exactly right (which I feel like could have been avoided with a little more collaboration/planning). I would recommend this company, but I think it is important for vendors to remember that couples are stressed out during wedding planning, and things like being consistently tardy and unprepared causes even more unnecessary stress for everyone.

    Terrible Time

    I let my husband pick the DJ since it was something easy to do and he majored in music in college and has experience setting up sound equipment for major artists. The first time that I really talked with Joe was the Wednesday before our Saturday wedding. I really didn’t get good vibes then, but what could I do? I’ve listed out some of the good and bad things about our wedding experience because Joe did do some things well, but the negatives REALLY came close to ruining my wedding.

    Pros:
    ~The offering of special sound equipment for our cavernous venue
    ~Uplighting included in the price as well as screens for displaying monograms or slideshows
    ~Very affordable - $900 is quite good for a wedding DJ
    ~Joe was great at keeping the timeline going
    ~When the PowerPoints would not play due to IT issues at the Science Museum, Joe did attempt to extract the photos and play them on his set of screens

    Cons:
    ~There were issues with the Science Museum playing Powerpoints that we created. Joe looked right at me and said, "You should have sent me the Powerpoint" with a condescending tone and smirk.

    ~He did not play songs that I specifically requested, including our outro song. It was something special that my husband and I had picked.

    ~All of the other vendors came up to us to say congrats and the standard things, but he was nowhere to be found (this is likely due to the death stare I gave him when I heard about the issue below, but it's still courteous).

    ~The worst thing that happened is below:
    My mother had called Joe to discuss playing specific special songs that were to be a surprise to me. This did not go according to plan whatsoever. When my mom approached Joe, she was upset (and understandably probably a little nasty). Words ensued and she started crying. He approached me basically to complain about my mother and ask me what I wanted him to do. He told me that he told my mother to email him whatever it was that she wanted and that she didn't. On my wedding day. While I was walking around greeting guests. How unprofessional. On top of talking to me about my mother, he complained that my guests weren't dancing. Who does that? Here I am trying to enjoy my wedding and he wants to come and tell me what is going on.

    To make matters worse, he went to my mother (a separate interaction) and told her "I do 60 weddings a year and how you expect for me to remember what we talked about is beyond me" and that he was driving when they talked. Here is the thing, my mother can be a handful but all he would have had to say is, "I am so sorry what can I do to fix it." It's basic customer service tactics. If you work in a high-stress environment you need to be able to deal with things in a professional and courteous manner. This all played out and I watched my mom cry at her table instead of enjoying my wedding.

    ~When approached by my cousin regarding a specific song that she knew that I liked, he said, "no one is going to dance to this song" and didn't want to play it despite her specifying that it was for me. In fact, it wasn't until my cousin went to Joe and started suggesting music that people started dancing. It wasn’t that the crowd wasn't a "dancing crowd", the music just wasn’t good. A good DJ can read crowds and adapt what they play accordingly.

    Unfortunately, the poor DJ experience really put a damper on my wedding reception. Book at your discretion.
