Incredible party experience

DJ Joey was AWESOME! He got everyone out on the dance floor and the music was great! Everyone was so happy and commented on how fun the party was. His photo booth provider was amazing as well. He helped everyone get into cool and fun poses and at the end he gave us a photo album with all of the pictures that our guests took that evening along with a flash drive with those pictures as well. Definitely would book him again if I could go back in time!!

Wedding Dj

Great job keeping all ages on the dance floor. The fog machine was a very beautiful touch to our first dance and the glow sticks that kept the kids busy! Great job transitioning into our crazy scheduled day. Awesome job!

Our DJ, Great Job

I have nothing but great things o say about Joey, he was really one of our top vendors and made the whole wedding day carefree. We really felt like we could trust him, and he's been doing this for so long, that he had it down to a science. Everyone just had a great time and it was mostly due to him! I would highly recommend.

Joey is such an amazing DJ and an absolute joy to work with. He provided his DJ/Entertainment services for a wedding that I recently coordinated. He was punctual and engaging with the wedding guests and staff. He kept the guests on the dance floor the entire night and created a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. The couple was overjoyed with the overall experience that Joey provided. I highly recommend him for any upcoming events.

Joey did an amazing job as a D.J. He made sure that I was ready to go for officiating by fitting the wireless mic on me and testing before we started. He was on que with all announcements, music and made the night fun! Highly recommended!
