Riddhi P. Married on 08/20/2022musically intelligent, attentive/ great at reading the crowd, hype when necessary without overdoing it
Umang and his team were amazing! We had a specific idea in mind and we provided multiple extensive playlists and he managed to compose a mix that fit each occasion perfectly. The baraat went wonderfully, it was so fun! Our guests couldn’t wait for the evening. The ceremony was also great- he played the right songs without prompting and it was really beautiful, he was able to control the volume perfectly so the pujari was never being over-shadowed. The attentiveness from Umang and his team was exceptional and exactly what we wanted. They read the room perfectly during every occasion. He also provided a plethora of add on options to give us a unique experience. We couldn’t have imaged a better music experience for our wedding! If you want a musically intelligent, attentive/ great at reading the crowd, hype when necessary without overdoing it- definitely go with Umang’s team, including Pinak, Summit, Jack! -

Benjamin H. Married on 06/03/2022One of the best DJ companies in Ohio. Period.
Masala Events recently dj'd + mc'd our Indian fusion wedding. It was a 2.5 day event and Umang and his crew covered everything: Mehndi Night, Baraat, Hindu Ceremony, Sangeet, traditional western ceremony, and western reception.
Umang and his team did an AWESOME job with everything. The songs were always on queue for our pre-planned dances, our slideshow/video went smoothly, very few technical issues, and overall a great flow of music with a good mixture of Bollywood + mainstream music. Umang even helped us put together the slideshow and mix our songs the Sangeet dances. Personally my favorite part was the Baraat. He didn't just throw down a playlist....he actively dj'd a show from the back of his truck while we processed to the the venue. He has a talent for mixing songs together seamlessly and put together an impressive medley of both Bollywood + mainstream pop music. His dhol drummer Simer is outstanding as well...both on his own and playing along to whatever music was on. I can't recommend this crew enough, regardless of what type of wedding you're planning. First rate experience from start to finish. -

Sohini G. Married on 11/20/2021Lit Indian Greek Wedding
We hired DJ Umang and Masala Events for our wedding and couldn't have been happier.
First and foremost his organization skills and attention to detail was beyond what we had expected. Not only did he coordinate with the vendors to ensure things ran smoothly, he coordinated with the bride, groom, father of the groom AND father of the bride. NOT an easy task when you have two very opinionated fathers...
We had a list of "do not play" and they deflected certain requests well without offending any guests.
Umang also "MC-ed" the night; The schedule ran smoothly. Transitions went well. All names pronounced correctly.
Cost-wise they were upfront with all expenses and there were no surprise charges.
Most importantly- music was off the hook. We had a packed dance floor all night and had many comments after how fun everyone had dancing.
Overall- highly recommend. While I hope this is the only wedding we hire them for- will definitely rebook for the next DJ event! -

Masala Entertainment brought ALL the SKILLS!
First and foremost, if you have an Indian wedding or Fusion wedding like we did – hire Masala Entertainment. Our wonderful wedding planner Priscah from Joie De Vivre recommended DJ Umang and his team and after our first video chat we hired him on the spot. As the creative music juices started to flow we couldn’t wait to collaborate with him on our Sangeet, Wedding Ceremony, and Reception. My husband and I are huge music lovers and we have a very eclectic taste and Umang was able to capture all of that throughout our entire weekend. It was a mix between chill EDM, Bollywood hits, and pop music – keeping people on the dance floor all night! My feet hurt for 3 weeks after the wedding because we danced so much! The attention to detail and the charismatic way Umang puts his spin on everything made us feel like he wasn’t just a DJ but that he really took the time to get to know us as a couple and helped created a magical weekend. Now that you know the music is on point lets talk about the ambiance of a wedding – its all about the mood lighting and that is where Masala Entertainment created a custom package of lighting for us – as we entered our reception our mouths dropped as the entire room felt like a fairy tale with soft pinks and highlights of gold. Our guests gasped upon entering at how elegant the room looked!! With the challenges of Covid – almost all of our meetings were held via Google Chat which was okay since their booking system for songs, lighting, and additional details makes it so easy for the bride and groom to update in live time essentially making conversations go smoothly. All in all if you want more details I am happy to share but the smile on our faces from our Sangeet night shows how truly happy we were to book Masala Entertainment! -

Neelam Married on 10/09/2011I think we can all agree that wedding planning can be painful especially if a vendor is not so easy to work with. I was referrerd to Masala Entertainment by a family member and wasn't sure what to expect. I was very pleasantly surprised when I spoke to Umang for the first time and felt like he was very professional and just an all around wonderful person.
I feel that a DJ can make or break a reception- and Masala Entertainment certainly made both the wedding and reception a hit! Umang is an amazing dholi artist & his music selection for the wedding & reception was exactly what I was looking for. Everything from the uplighting to the music & dj booth was AMAZING. I am not the type of person that give compliments unless someone truely did something well.
I have been to hundreds of weddings all over the states, and I haven't come across a DJ quite like this. Keep up the awesome work! Masala Entertainment was long overdue in Ohio, & I'm so glad we were referred to you! -
User1541063 2+ years agoWe used Masala entertainment for my sister's wedding. Apurva was the main DJ and he was absolutely amazing. During the event he was focused and so attentive. He knew who were the main people and organizers and did a great job working with them. He was so helpful, he even helped move chairs between skits during part of the evening program. There was a small hiccup when a song was played that the couple did not want, it was one of those typical wedding songs that may have been requested many times by guests, but it was not a huge deal. I would highly recommend Apurva for a wedding or special event. -
User1060783 2+ years agoThese kids are young, but have solid equipment and skills. They let us come preview their playing at a college party, and we liked what we saw. We used them for two parties. On the first night the DJ got lost but called us a number of times to let us know his status. He made it to the event on time. We sent them a huge list of plays and do not plays. They got most of it right. Our crowd was demanding and they struggled a little bit with the man dozen requests, but did their best to make do.
Overall, the dance floor was almost never empty. Hard to say more than that. Also, they did a strong job accommodating western and Indian music, and mixing it up.
