Wedding DJ Service
dj’n aint just music. it’s knowin’ how to read a room. knowin’ when to drop that old-school joint so the aunties wild out, and then switch it up for the youngins with a lil’ Drake or Bad Bunny. some DJs out here just stand around. not us. we mix live. we talk to the crowd. we make it feel like a party, not a playlist.
i’ve dj’d in Bronx ballrooms, Staten Island halls, even on a boat under the Brooklyn Bridge. every crowd got its own vibe. and we bring the right energy. every time.
our gear’s clean. sound hits hard. no janky speakers or busted mics. we test everything. backup ready, always.
don’t matter if it’s 20 people or 200, you get the same energy. you can’t fake that. and clients feel it. we got reviews sayin “best night ever” and “he saved my wedding” – that’s real. that’s from the heart.
ok so yeah, we’re DJs. but we’re also entertainers. i once did a wedding in Flatbush where the groom’s cousin dared me to beatbox and then rap his toast. i did it. whole room was losin’ it. that’s the kinda stuff you can’t teach. u either bring the vibe, or u don’t.
we get people laughin, dancin, singin off-key, and havin’ a time they’ll tell stories about. your uncle who never smiles? yeah he’ll be sweatin’ on the floor. that flower girl that was shy all night? she’ll be startin’ a conga line by 9pm.
it’s not just playin’ music. it’s hostin’ a party. u gotta know when to grab the mic, crack a joke, shout out the newlyweds, or just step back and let the moment breathe.
NYC crowds don’t play. if the DJ’s boring, people leave early. if u got someone who makes it fun? they stay. they remember. they tell their cousins. and that’s how our phone stays ringin’.
i’m not sayin’ we clowns or circus acts. we classy. but we real. real funny, real smooth, real fun. that’s the difference.
ok now let’s talk real – half the weddings we DJ at, the timeline be fallin’ apart by cocktail hour. but guess what? we fix it. we help plan out the whole run-of-show if you ain’t got no planner. or we work with your planner to make sure everything flow smooth.
i’ve worked with planners from Manhattan to Astoria. some are super chill, some are control freaks. doesn’t matter. we get in sync. we carry that timeline in our head. we announce stuff before people even ask. toast? got it. cake? queued the song already.
sometimes i even help line up the bridal party. not even jokin’. i’m out here fixin’ veils and holdin’ the mic for best man speeches when it cut out. true story.
people don’t realize it, but a DJ runs the whole night. your whole vibe depends on how we move. and we don’t mess that up. we keep it flowin’. if someone forgets the bouquet toss? we remind em. if the officiant’s late? we stall like pros with jokes and music that keep the crowd chill.
dj and planner? kinda the same thing in NYC. we don’t just hit play. we keep the whole thing alive.
real talk, sometimes u don’t got a vendor for lights or mics. or even chairs. so we started bringin’ our own stuff. lights, uplights, wireless mics, fog machines (yup), even battery-powered speakers for park weddings. had a couple get married in Prospect Park last fall – no outlets, just trees. we powered the whole thing off batteries. and yeah, it slapped.
we got lights that move with the music. we got monograms with your name in lights. wanna feel like a club for a few hours? we can make that happen.
i ain’t sayin we a full rental shop. but if u need the gear for your wedding to feel complete? we got it. and if we don’t got it, we know a guy who does. all local NYC vendors too – nothin’ shady.
i remember one time, the caterer forgot a speaker for the ceremony mic. i drove to my crib, grabbed one, and got back before the walk-down. that’s how we work. we don’t say “not my job.” we just fix it.
weddings ain’t just parties. they special. emotional. it’s big. u wait years for this. and we treat it like that. like it matters. like u matter.
we ain’t clock-watchin’. we don’t bail early. we don’t bounce if it runs late. one time a couple in Harlem had to delay the whole wedding cuz of rain. we waited. like 2 hours. no stress. and when it cleared up, we got started like nothin’ happened. no extra charge. no complaints.
we know how to do the ceremony music perfect. soft intros, fade-outs, timing the walk, all that. we got playlists ready but also change it on the fly if grandma walks too slow. we adjust. real DJs don’t freeze.
i love when i see people cry during the first dance. that means we nailed it. the right song, the right timing, the right vibe.
weddings in NYC are wild. loud streets, tiny venues, random stuff goin wrong. but that’s the game. and we play it like pros.
if u want someone who gets it – like really gets it – that this day is once in a lifetime… then you want The Wedding DJ Man of NYC. we ain’t just DJs. we your backup, your hype team, your plan B, C, and D.
How much should you pay a wedding DJ?
honestly? depends on who u get. in nyc, it can run from like $800 for a new guy who just started, to $2,500+ for someone who got years in the game, brings gear, plans stuff, makes it run smooth, all that. most good DJs land somewhere around $1,500 to $2k. we ain’t the cheapest. but we also don’t mess up. if u want the night to go right, u pay for that. simple.
Do you bring your own equipment?
yep. we bring all the sound, mics, lights, cables, and backups too. if u got something special in mind, just tell us.
Do you take song requests?
of course. we got a whole system where u can send us a list. but we also take em live at the party. unless it’s like, polka at a hip hop wedding – then we might skip that one lol.
What happens if the DJ gets sick or can't make it?
never happened to us. but if it did? we got backup DJs ready. we ain’t leavin u hangin’. that bride from the intro? yeah. she called us when her DJ ghosted. we saved her day. we got u too.
How early do you show up?
we pull up early. like 2 hours early. setup, test everything, chill before the guests come. no stress.
