    Best around

    The absolute best around! Sarah and Chris provided uplighting, dance floor lighting and Dj services for our event.
    Everything was perfect. They kept everyone DANCING all night long and our crowd is usually a non-dancing bunch.
    HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    Excellent Service, People, and Atmosphere

    I cannot say enough good things about No Macarena and Chris and Sarah. Throughout the entire process of planning our wedding, Chris and Sarah were professional, helpful, patient, and supportive. Every question asked, they had an answer for, every possible issue posed, they had a solution, every crazy idea pitched, they rose up to the challenge. From our first phone call all the way up to the day of our wedding, they were there ready and willing to help us make all of our big ideas become reality. Their outline was so helpful in planning the timeline for our big day and really helped us figure out all of the small details that we probably would not have even thought of. On the day of our wedding, they were punctual, able to set everything up without questions, and executed everything that we talked about with no issues. They played music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and every event went off without a hitch. During the reception, they provided an excellent mix and kept everyone up on the dancefloor providing the exact atmosphere that we wanted. I can't imagine how different the planning process and our wedding would have been if we didn't choose to use No Macarena. I am so incredibly grateful for everything they did to help make our big day so special. I highly recommend them for literally any event.

    Thank you No Macarena!!!

    Jonas from No Macarena DJ went above and beyond to make our wedding day a blast. In our initial meeting, he said his goal was to have our tastes and personalities come through in the music, and that's exactly what he did. He was very communicative in the weeks leading up to it, working with us to make custom edits of our special songs and ensuring that the timing of every big moment was perfect. He was happy to meet our specific requests and make suggestions for details we were less sure about. He dealt with last-minute tasks, including my Maid of Honor asking him to play a surprise musical cue over her toast (a highlight of the night!). We got SO many compliments on the music and everyone's voice was gone the next morning from singing along. You cannot go wrong with booking him for your next event!

    Incredible DJ—Made Our Wedding Unforgettable!

    Alex from No Macarena did an absolutely fantastic job as our wedding DJ! From the ceremony audio setup to keeping the dance floor packed all night, everything was flawless. His music choices were spot on, and he kept the energy up the entire time. We received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music was.

    On top of that, Alex was professional, attentive to detail, and so easy to work with. He really made our wedding day unforgettable. We highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for an amazing DJ for their event!

    Jamya was a Joy

    We can’t say enough good things about Jamya. She was a ray of sunshine on our day. She was considerate and accommodating at every turn, and once the reception started she made the whole thing flow perfectly without ever causing us stress. She mixed the music perfectly and accepted every request we had.

    We decided on the song for the mother/daughter dance, no joke, a minute before the dance actually began, but Jamya made it work without a hitch!

    She played music from the playlist that we provided, but also got a feel for our taste in music and added in more music that meshed perfectly! She also mixed songs so that guests weren’t stuck listening to the same song in its entirety. If you’ve been to other weddings, it can be difficult to keep people’s attention when the same song is playing for too long.

    At one point, our dance floor started to slow down because people started to get tired (because the music was so good that we couldn’t stop dancing). Instead of slowing the music down on her own, she came over and checked with us to make sure we were okay with slower music and even asked us for some slow songs we liked.

    It was this kind of consideration, kindness, and attention to detail that made Jamya such a joy to work with. She made our party amazing, and all without taking the attention away from us once.

    Our guests (both young and old) were constantly telling us how amazing she was. Many of them took the time to even walk up to her at the end of the night to thank her personally.

    You can tell that she really enjoys her job. Her love of music (and people) quite literally radiates out of her. She has this megawatt smile and seeing that on your wedding day is infectious

    Do yourself and your guests a favor and book Jamya for your wedding!!

    Pete from No Macarena DJ'ed our wedding and it was the most amazing day! Communication was flawless and everything went so smoothly from ceremony to reception. The dance floor was packed all night. I had multiple compliments from guests and my dad can't stop talking about how everyone was dancing all night!!!

    Unforgettable party thanks to No Macarena DJ & Rod!

    No Macarena DJ was recommended to us by our venue coordinator, and we couldn’t be happier that we followed their advice! From start to finish, they were professional, flexible, and easy to work with. Their communication was clear and consistent throughout the entire process, which made planning a breeze.

    We were especially grateful for our DJ, Rod. Music was a key part of our celebration, and Rod truly nailed it. He perfectly captured the vibe we wanted, kept the evening running smoothly, and honored our requests. Guests of all ages raved about the music, and I found myself on the dance floor all night long!

    Overall, we were thrilled with No Macarena DJ and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable party atmosphere.

    Amazing - Our dance floor was going hard all night!!

    We couldn't be more pleased with our decision to go with No Macarena. Our DJ, Darrel was a great emcee. He struck the perfect balance of showing his great personality, but never making himself the center of attention. He was so helpful in the music selection process beforehand, and his understanding of the vibe we were looking for was SPOT ON! He read the room so well, even pivoting from something we’d originally planned, but it was absolutely perfect! So many of our guests were up and dancing the whole night, and I think that was a testament to the quality of our DJ.

    Exactly what we were looking for!

    I really loved that we could be super picky about music! We had a great call with Ryan before the wedding to explain exactly what we were looking for. We sent over a playlist of recommendations and most of them were played! The vibes were great and everyone had a wonderful time dancing. He even helped us incorporate some dorky elements into party introductions, which made it feel so personal.

    Awesome experience !

    We had a great experience with No Macarena. We used them for ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and a photobooth!. They have a shared document that makes it easy to communicate all of your song preferences, speeches to announce, etc. Our DJ Alex was awesome! We told him we wanted a very "dancy" wedding and the dance floor was going the whole night. He also communicated with us throughout the night about certain things. Our photobooth was a hit and our photobooth attendant, Lawrence was very professional and friendly. Could not recommend No Macarena enough!

    Professional, Friendly, High-Quality

    DJ Rod and No Macarena deserve more than just a 5 out of 5 review. Quickly, for No Macarena they are exactly what they advertise. They allow you to take complete control of the playlists for all parts of your wedding, if you want, and they did no line-dancing or anything specific that we did not want. We liked No Macarena for the originality and freedom offered, and that is exactly what we got.

    Regarding DJ Rod, as a couple who stresses professionalism and friendliness most of all, especially for our wedding, DJ Rod was perfect. He was friendly to speak and work with. He handled set-up and our requests with respect but also an eager attitude like he WANTED to do it. He was an absolute pleasure. It felt like he was on standby for our few specific song requests, and we gave him creative freedom for the dancing portion of the night and his song choices were great! Everyone who wanted to dance was dancing and very much enjoyed themselves.

    As stated at the top, DJ Rod deserves more than just a 5 out of 5 rating.

    Excellent DJ and music!

    We recently had the pleasure of having Josh from "No Macarena" DJ & Custom Music Service deejay our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we first contacted Josh, his professionalism and passion for music were evident. He took the time to understand our musical preferences and created a custom playlist that perfectly matched the vibe we wanted for our special day.

    Josh's attention to detail was impeccable. He seamlessly blended our favorite tracks with classic hits that had everyone on the dance floor all night long. His ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was truly impressive. From the first dance to the last song, Josh ensured that every moment was filled with joy and celebration.

    Josh's setup was professional, and the sound quality was excellent. He was also incredibly responsive and easy to work with throughout the planning process, making our experience stress-free and enjoyable.

    Thank you, Josh, for making our wedding day magical with your incredible talent and dedication!

    10000000/10 !!!!

    I cannot say enough great things about No Macarena DJ! Chris and Sarah themselves came to DJ my wedding in June and they were absolutely amazing from the jump. The first time we spoke with Chris over the phone our anxiety immediately subsided - he was incredibly kind, thoughtful and listened to our requests. We had kind of a weird request where we wanted our first dance song chopped up a bit to include my favorite part of the song at the end, and Chris was able to mix it with short notice, and he did an awesome job! They were spot on with the type of music we wanted, and when they showed up to the wedding, I felt like I had known them for years with how comfortable they made us feel. Cannot recommend them enough!!!

    No Macarena DJ at Grounds for Sculpture - 6/8/24

    Sarah and Chris at No Macarena DJ ensured that everything turned out the way we imagined at our wedding. They are also fantastic people; super professional and kind. Music plays a big role in our relationship and they took the time to get to know us and understand what we wanted. On top of that, the uplighting they did at our venue (Grounds for Sculpture in NJ) looked better than we could've ever imagined. If you'd like a DJ who really cares, is hands on, and ensures things are exactly the way you requested, then look no further!

    DJ Darrel did a perfect job at our wedding. He was communicative throughout the planning, and was unobtrusive, fun, and gracious on our wedding day. He was a pleasure to work with and I'd recommend him to any couple who wants to have a blast at their wedding.

    Hire them!! They make the day YOURS!

    Just do it!!

    I knew from the moment I spoke on the phone with Sarah that this would be a perfect fit. Sarah and Chris understand music and production so well! They are incredibly skilled at being able to cater events to your exact preferences! They were INCREDIBLE to communicate with from start to finish. Kind, efficient, quick response time, and seamless all around.

    We had a lot of unique preferences as we were combining different styles of music/cultures throughout the night, a singing flashmob of guests towards the end of our first dance, amongst other requests and Alex was able to accommodate all of it without question! We opted to add a live drummer to our event (who happened to be from Ukraine; my family is Ukrainian so they loved that!) Anthony (drummer) and Alex (DJ) were AMAZING and the guests were raving about the duo. Alex had the crowd dancing (of all ages!) all night long. We added party lights last minute which were such a good choice! We also opted for a PhotoBooth which was a blasttt and I highly recommend it! Worth every penny.

    Thank you SO much to Sarah, Chris, Anthony, and Alex for making our day so special. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!!!

    Great communication and good vibes for our wedding!

    My wife and I had a great experience working with No Macarena and our DJ Jonas. They were so easy to work with and were always clear in their communication. In helping us to prep, they asked all the right questions to ensure that we had everything in place with speakers/equipment, timeline for speeches, our playlist and more. Jonas did a great job reading the crowd to make sure both our younger and older guests had a great time with some great music. We got so many compliments from our guests on the music.

    My wife and I highly recommend both No Macarena and Jonas!

    100000000/10 experience (DJ Jamz is the BEST)

    Words cannot describe how IMMENSELY GRATEFUL we are for the amazing music and environment Dj Jamz (Jamya) created for our wedding night. She is such a gem and everyone couldn’t stop raving about the music and how sweet, personable, and fun she was, and how much fun it was to look over and also see her jamming along 🥰 She created an incredible vibe and made the night beyond special, expertly mixing tunes for our first dance, announcing us with such joy during our grand entrance, and spinning both English and non English music for our fusion wedding. It was a party of epic proportions and we were just sad it had to end!

    Absolutely hire Dj Jamz if you’re looking for someone awesome, so sweet, and super fun to join your big day! ♥️

    Elevated all of the special moments

    My husband and I are HUGE music people so we had a vision of what we did and did not want on our big day. Sarah and Chris of No Macarena ensured our vision came to life! We also had a rainy day so we had to go with plan b and Sarah and Chris pivoted like the pros they are. They knew how to read the room and helped elevate special moments. 10/10!!!
