    The best DJ!

    Scott was an absolute joy to work with, both in the months leading up to our wedding as well as day-of! He had some great music choices for cocktail hour and dinner, and had our guests on the dance floor all night long! Not only did he play fantastic dancing music, but he provided some MC skills to make everything move seamlessly. During the planning process, he was super responsive, friendly, very organized (he sent us a huge spreadsheet for song preferences!!), easy to communicate with, and just all around a great guy. We highly recommend Scott for any DJ needs you may have!

    Fun and professional DJ!

    Scott totally delivered as our wedding DJ. He was communicative and helpful while we were planning, gave us great advice along the way that felt really grouded. He's really funny too. At our wedding he played a great set that everyone in our group, even the music snobs, enjoyed. We would definitely recommend Scott!

    Played his part perfectly!!

    Scott was fantastic to work with from the very first call. He is incredibly friendly and personable. We loved his process for selecting reception music and he nailed our complicated ceremony and processional music requests. His ability to act as a secondary day of coordinator was great, and he read the vibe of the dance floor perfectly. 10/10 would recommend.

    DJ Scott absolutely crushed it!!! :)

    My husband and I got married at Waterfall Lodge in the Santa Cruz mountains last fall. Scott was the perfect person to DJ our wedding and knew our venue inside and out. He was very communicative throughout the planning process and had an epic list of song options. His pricing was very reasonable and with his extensive experience DJ-ing weddings, he was the perfect choice for us! Scott is the BEST and I highly recommend booking him for your special day :)

    Saratoga Wedding

    We had the pleasure of having Scott as our wedding DJ at our special day, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful and responsive to all our questions, making the planning process a breeze. His resourcefulness was clear throughout the entire process, and his experience made day-of preparation quick and easy. We would absolutely recommend Scott!

    Scott was great

    We were lucky to find Scott and have him as our DJ. His communication was great and he helped us come up with the music we enjoyed and our guests wanted to dance to. He was flexible and willing to follow our suggestions. He covers all the bases, is not over priced, and is highly recommended. We communicated with several other DJs prior to selecting Scott and are so glad we did.

    Scott Trugman will Ensure Everyone Dances!

    We are so grateful we decided to hire Scott Trugman as our wedding DJ. He is down to earth, open and honest, and knows exactly what he is doing. When we first met with Scott, we were impressed with his interest in our vision for the wedding. He made us feel comfortable and ensured us that he would create a memorable dance experience for all of our guests (and the results were amazing). He is extremely detailed oriented and experienced at what he does. We enjoyed going over his impressive archive of music as a couple, and appreciated his guidance and suggestions throughout the planning process. We want to thank Scott for making our day so special! All of our friends and family had a blast, especially during the Horah!

    AMAZING!! Look no further!

    If you are looking for your wedding dj/mc look no further. From the communication all the way to the last dance Scott was extremely professional and accommodating. 10/10 would recommend to anyone searching for a DJ/MC Scott made at least one part of the wedding planning process less stressful.

    Best day ever !

    From the very first phone call to saying goodbye at the end of the wedding, Scott was nothing short of awesome. He was beyond nice, professional and helpful. He offered input where it was needed and let me lead the way when it wasn’t. He guided me through what songs are needed, the general flow of introductions and speeches, and events throughout the night. Not to mention, his attire was top notch! I unfortunately can’t remember his assistants name, but he was also incredible and helped hype up the crowd and make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. I will continue to use and recommend for any and all upcoming events! Thanks for the best night ever.

    What an amazing DJ!

    Scott was fantastic to work with! He made it easy for us to plan out our wedding day music with his spreadsheet of songs and was sure to play our "must haves" during our big day. We also are so grateful he pointed out that we were missing ceremony sound, and we were able to add that to our contract before the event. He even made sure we had lapel mics which we really appreciated for our ceremony! Everyone at the wedding loved the music and told us Scott was cool and fun to talk to! We had let him know a specific song important to the bride's father, and he timed it perfectly right up to the father's toast. This was such a special moment for us and our families adored it so much they won't stop talking about it! Thank you so much for making our night so memorable and putting us at ease.

    Super responsive, affordable, and a joy to work with!

    Scott was our DJ/MC for our wedding on April 15th, 2023 and I couldn't recommend him more!! Working with Scott was such a joy. Every question I asked he responded almost immediately, which put me at ease in the busyness of wedding planning. I knew that we were in good hands on the wedding day, but was so impressed by how much value he and his assistant, Carolyn, added to the day! He kept our guests dancing and having fun, everything was seamless/natural in his transitions, and he and his team handled the technical difficulties we had expertly. So glad we chose Scott for our Big Day!!

    Scott is truly the best out there!

    Scott is the best. We are so glad that we met Scott and had him DJ our wedding. My husband and I felt so comfortable during the entire process leading up to our wedding. Scott made everything simple and truly handled everything! I would recommend him to anyone searching for a DJ! Scott was so fun and helpful.

    The Most Dependable Vendor We Worked With

    Planning a wedding means working with a bunch of different vendors and putting a lot of faith in people to make your special day go smoothly. Scott was the vendor we never had to worry about, because he was always so on top of things and it was such a relief.

    The DJ Music Packet he made was one of the planning tools that really made us feel like our wedding was coming to life. It made us feel organized and excited to get those details planned and once we sent that info over to Scott, he took care of the rest.

    On the day of the wedding, he played the perfect mix of music to get all ages on the dancefloor. We were able to attend part of our cocktail hour, and the music from start to finish was great.

    We don’t know if we will ever have another event that requires a DJ but we wish we did, because working with Scott was so awesome. Thank you again Scott for all the work you did leading up to the big day and for being a part of our wedding.

    Experienced, accommodating, responsive DJ

    A goal for our wedding was to keep the dance floor hoppin all night. All our friends love a good party, and that's what DJ Scott provided us. He played all the hits that kept people of all ages on the dance floor. He was very prepared in all our meetings and helped guide us through the wedding process. Day of, frankly, we barely talked to him except to thank him immensely at the end of the night. He was so well prepared. Because of the planning meetings with him and discussions on timeline, he integrated with the venue staff and was able to chaperone the ceremony and reception through a beautiful evening. He was quick to provide insurance for the venue when asked and even incorporated a few extra song requests so we could perform some of our choreographed dances! He was able to keep the party moving while my husband and I sneaked out for an impromptu beach photo shoot without anyone noticing which was a pretty big change to our timeline, and fit in a few guest surprise dances! Great wedding DJ

    Picking DJ Trug was one of the best decisions we made

    My partner and I reached out to a few different DJs on our venue’s list of preferred vendors. DJ Scott Trugman was one of the first that responded and the first we talked with. Based on the many glowing reviews other clients had written for DJ Trug, I had a good feeling about him. After the initial phone call, we knew that he was the right DJ for us. Scott is humble, funny, and an attentive listener – he cared about our vision for our wedding and it felt like he cared about us as people as well. We half-heartedly talked with another DJ or two but quickly decided to end the search because DJ Trug was clearly the best fit.


    Throughout the planning process, DJ Trug was professional and organized. He shared a master list of available songs and lists of songs he had played at previous events for inspiration. He also collected our wedding schedule and the names (and name pronunciations) of everyone in the processional so that he would be prepared to make the appropriate announcements.


    We had some unconventional song requests (one of our friends makes his own music which we wanted to play), and DJ Trug worked with us to make it happen. His flexibility and willingness to accommodate our requests made our wedding even more special for us and our friends!


    On our wedding day, DJ Trug arrived at the venue before we did (and we got there early ourselves!) and was set up and ready to go in time for the event. In addition to playing all of the songs we requested right on cue, he also gracefully handled impromptu announcements, smoothly delivering the messages more eloquently than I could have done myself. His many years of experience really shone in his execution!


    As far as we could tell, there were no audio issues, and the volume was just right all night long. (I dislike when music is played so loud that you have to yell to converse with people right next to you; thankfully that was not so at our wedding.) This is one of those things that’s easy to take for granted because it seems so basic, but it’s also so fundamentally important!


    During the bouquet toss, I was utterly confused about when to actually toss the bouquet – I couldn’t tell if the ladies were still getting into position and my photographer was trying to give me instructions on how the pictures would be taken, so I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. Thankfully, DJ Trug seemed to notice my hesitation, and he smoothly jumped in with a “we’ll do the bouquet toss on the count of 3, one, two, three…”. That was a lifesaver, thank you!! I really appreciate how DJ Trug is so attentive to details.


    Although our wedding got slightly off schedule towards the latter half, DJ Trug reassured us that there was no rush, he would be there when we were ready to move on to the next scheduled activity, and we should take our time and really take in the moment. It was great advice – time seems to speed up at weddings, and the whole event can go by in the blink of an eye. I definitely needed the reminder to relax and just be present in the moment.


    Many of our guests also complimented our DJ’s music choices, and the dance floor was packed for much of the evening! Everyone had a great time, and DJ Trug’s skills played a huge role in making that happen.


    We couldn’t have been happier with our DJ selection – it was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. DJ Trug has earned every word of praise people have written about him on the internet. If you’re thinking of hiring DJ Trugman, think no longer and just do it! ;)

    No need to look further!

    We chose Scott to be our DJ at our wedding at Saratoga Springs. From the initial meeting, we got a great vibe from him. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the DJ was after our event, everyone was dancing all night...young and old! Truly, I don't think my husband or I ever left the dance floor. Scott read the energy of the night and tailored the music perfectly. The songs we chose for special moments such as the first kiss, grand entrance, etc., he knew exactly which note to start the song on for the best effect. Scott was an absolute joy to work with and one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding!

    Scott is the best!

    Scott was amazing to work with. We booked him early on in 2021 for our 2023 wedding, and he was always in touch throughout the whole process. Our zoom meetings went smoothly, and his communication was superb. He was the easiest vendor to work with throughout the entire wedding planning process. Our guests had an amazing time and kept raving about the DJs song choices and how well the whole evening flowed. We are so grateful to Scott for making our wedding reception so much fun! You would be silly to hire someone else- go with Scott!

    Great to work with, wonderful wedding day!

    Scott made our wedding day fun and low stress! We hired Scott for our wedding at the Seymour Center on 6/3/23. He was super responsive, flexible, and helpful as we figured out event details. His wedding experience and organized preparation made us feel much more confident going into the event. On the day of the event he made everything flow naturally -- song requests, a couple impromptu toasts, extra dancing before cake cutting... We absolutely recommend Scott for any event!

    Fantastic DJ!!

    Scott did an amazing job as our DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception! We had a small intimate wedding with 26 guests. Scott is very prompt and receptive to all questions and concerns.

    Excellent wedding DJ!

    Scott was great to work with, and he did a phenomenal job with the music at our wedding! He read the crowd really well, and kept everyone out on the dance floor for hours. We asked for a good mix of classic rock and modern songs but didn't provide a song list, and he very much delivered! So much fun! He's also a really nice guy and very reasonably priced. Strongly recommend Scott for your wedding DJ!
