    David E deserves a perfect 5 stars from me!! He was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. He made everything so easy for me and made sure I was up-to-date on everything the whole day and night. His prices are very good and his services are endless. We only used the DJ service but there is so much more that is great!! He chose songs for me when I did not know what to pick and they worked out great!! He keep the crowd going and is very personal. I felt like he had known my husband and I for years!! If you want a wedding DJ that is all about you, choose The Party Connection!! Thanks again David!!

    The Party Connection was the best. From day one they were very helpful and easy to work with. They put us at ease and made this a enjoyable process. the price was great and the service was better. they took the time to plan and confirm with us the music playlist, the ceremony music and the reception events. the execution the day of the wedding was flawless. Everyone enjoyed the music, photo booth and the upbeat DJ who kept the party going! i had many guest tell me how great the DJ was and how fun the photo booth is. Would highly recommend them for your wedding!

    We used The Party Connection as our DJ for our wedding on July 8th. What can I say about David E., other than he was GREAT!!! He was so helpful from the beginning to the end. You can tell he loves what he does. Everyone loved him. He was so helpful at keeping everything moving and on schedule. We also used the photo booth thru his company which was awesome! The guests loved it. There was cool props and he provided an attendant to assist everyone with there pictures. Guests who used the photo booth got to leave with the pictures they had taken. The photos were also personalized with framing and wording that had our wedding info on them. I would for sure recommend David E. and The Party Connection for all your party needs. :)

    Very Happy Couple

    My new husband and I, were so happy to have found the Party Connection for our special day, and were very pleased to have David E. and his team for our wedding.
    David did an outstanding job as the master of ceremonies, and right from the first song he played, he created the perfect atmosphere.
    Our chocolate fountain was fantastic. We went with the dark chocolate, and it was delish. All of our friends and family raved about it.
    We went with the enclosed photo booth, and our attendant made it so much fun. She was very interactive and helped us with props and different choices of poses. We had an absolute blast.
    From the first phone call, David was warm, friendly, and helpful, and made suggestions that we didn’t even think of. We highly recommend the party connection and David E.
    We truly thank you David, for making our day so wonderful, and memorable.
    Sincerely,
    Chuck and Cynthia

    Awesome and Professional

    Dave was our Dj. We had a small intimate wedding that was romantic. He played Romantic accustic music before the ceremony and kicked into high gear after cocktail hr with some country , Rock, Old Disco and Dance music. He totally rocked it. He is a true professional that is friendly and caring. There was one point I got a bit overheated and he offered to get me a beverage. He puts his all into an event and reads the crowd. We also purchased the photobooth which was a big hit with guests! All in All it was a phenominal event. TY Dave! Hire this man. I have hired DJs in the past for other events and I will be coming back to TPC. He totally blew us away! I highly recommend!

    The best!!

    We hired DJ Dave for our wedding reception and could not be happier. We grew a great relationship with Dave throughout the entire process and he literally answered our call WHENEVER we needed him. He was fantastic with communication. When it came to the day, Dave kept the party going the entire night. He played a great mix of songs to tend to all age groups. He even got the crowd involved which we absolutely loved. We could have requested so many songs, but Dave even thought of ones that slipped our minds that we love. We also had a photobooth which was a big hit with our guests. Everyone got to take home copies of their pictures and we were able to receive a thumb drive with all of the pictures when we returned from our honeymoon. Dave, thank you so much for being fun, professional, and taking part in our special day, we appreciate you! Please hire Dave for your next even and you won’t be sorry!!

    Fantastic Wedding DJ!

    We are SO glad we chose David E to be our wedding DJ. He did an amazing job incorporating a bunch of songs that we requested of him ahead of time, along with lots of fun choices that everyone loved. The dance floor was so much fun because of his great music choices, his ability to make the songs flow well from one to the next, and his fun demeanor as our MC. Our dance floor was full and everyone had a great time the whole night. We very highly recommend him as a DJ for weddings receptions or really any events that are searching for a fun, interactive DJ who will play great music and who is professional, reliable and easy to work with.

    I run a party house and see a lot of DJs every weekend. When I saw David from The Party Connection I hired him right away for a personal event of my own. He is amazing to work with. He managed to get every song we wanted even the hard ones to find. He has a way of making the bride and groom or the guest of honor special, more than any other DJ I have seen. The DJ sets the tone for the party and they can make or break it. Dave creates energy and soul. The photo booth was a blast and everyone got to take home a memory. Great attitude, affordable pricing and a gift of bringing life to a party, I am so happy that I found them and I will be recommending him to all my brides and other events.

    When we got married in 1998, we went to Party Connection, and we worked with David Stevens. Awesome person, and a fantastic DJ. He did an amazing job, kept the party going! He was so much fun and humorous, making for a GREAT time. Such a memorable time! One wedding that was talked about for years. We enjoyed ourselves so much, that when it came time for our son to get married, we IMMEDIATELY contacted the Party Connection once again. Even after all of these years, David Stevens, has still got it! He did ANOTHER fantastic job....so much fun! I definitely recommend David, and The Party Connection to anyone who is planning a wedding!

    I will highly recommend special request DJ service and the party connection for going above and beyond for my wedding!!! We booked a bundle package... DJ, Photographer, Photo booth and Video. They are truly friendly, engaging, flexible and listened to my requests. We also had a chocolate fountain with tons of fruits to dip in it!!! Delish!!! If you're looking for the best package deal this is the place to go. Very affordable!

    Sincerely...
    A Happy Bride!

    David E is the G.O.A.T!

    David E - the best of the best! He is professional, organized, fun and an amazing MC! I used to work in the wedding industry in Rochester and I have worked with many "DJ's" over the years. Anyone can call themselves a DJ these days...David E is more than just a DJ! He knows just what to say and the right moment, comes prepared with more than needed (had a mic stand for the ceremony without even asking for one!) I couldn't have been happier with his services for my cousins fairy tale wedding. Also, I was worried about the acoustics because the reception was located in a pole barn, but his brand new speakers sounded top notch! Thank you for everything David E!!!

    The Party Connection is amazing! I just hosted a Couples Baby Shower for my Daughter and Son-in-Law at the Burgundy Basin. David E Stevens provided the music with his Special Request DJ services. He has an extremely professional sound system and an innovative state of the art lighting service which he provided for us as well. He is light hearted, fun , and he really kept the party on track! We also used his fantastic Photo Booth! The props were great and the picture quality was superior! He created a personalized template for the pictures which had my Daughter and Son-in-Law's name , date, and Baby Shower Beach theme pictured on each photo. His Photo Booth is user friendly and he also provided an attendant all evening. We will always cherish these pictures. We also used his photography service. Bob Zucco is an amazing photographer! He Knew what we wanted and captured so many special moments. We love these wonderful photographs. The Party Connection helped us create a very fun and special event and everyone had a really great time. I highly recommend their services.

    Extremely friendly & helpful, the whole event moved along very smoothly because of them. The D.J. was very accommodating to our personal preferences. Also the photographer was very easy to work with, he did an amazing job & we love our pictures. Affordable prices, great packages to choose from. David E. & his team were a pleasure to do business with. They definitely helped make the day as stress free as possible which is important for any bride on her big day.

    I hired The Party Connection for my wedding and I feel as though this was the best decision ever! We hired them for both Dj and Photography and the service we received was amazing. We planned our entire wedding from another state and David made it so easy for us to manage. After one phone call we hired them and we are very happy with our decision. I would recommend them to anyone!

It really was a pleasure working with them!

    Dave with The Party Connection was an absolute pleasure to work with. The first time I met him he said "I want you to feel like a guest at your own wedding" and he did just that. Dave went above an beyond on the day of the wedding to make sure everything was perfect. He made suggestions and took upon some tasks that I would have never expected. He truly made our wedding a memorable one. If I would have employed any other DJ. My wedding would have been ruined.

    Exceptional

    Recently, we had the pleasure of having David from The Party Connection provide DJ and PhotoBooth services for our mother’s 80th surprise Birthday party. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice. They brought the party to life with a perfect blend of music and great props and fun for the PhotoBooth. They are energetic, fun and engaging. I highly recommend their services and will most definitely have them at all future events. 5 Stars, all the way!!!

    Wow, Couldn't Be Happier

    DJ Dave from The Party Connection is an excellent DJ!

    From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey, he was attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable. He regularly checked in with us, not just to confirm logistics, but to truly understand our vision and vibe. Every conversation felt sincere—he cared about the details and made us feel supported every step of the way.

    On the big day, DJ Dave delivered above and beyond. His music selection was spot-on, perfectly tailored to our crowd and the energy we wanted. We received countless compliments from guests in the days following—everyone was raving about how fun and seamless the night felt. He had the entire room dancing, laughing, and celebrating together, which was exactly what we hoped for.

    His energy is infectious. DJ Dave knows how to read a room and elevate the atmosphere with just the right mix of enthusiasm and finesse. If you're looking for a DJ who brings heart, talent, and serious party-starting skills, DJ Dave is your guy. We couldn’t be happier with our experience!
