Arabic weddings ain’t quiet. they’re loud, full of life, full of rhythm, full of love. from the zaffa to dabke to pop remixes and old-school classics — the music ain’t just background. it’s the soul of the night.
at The Wedding DJ Man of NYC, we know what it means to run an Arabic wedding. we’re not talkin’ a random playlist off YouTube. we’re talkin’ real energy, real transitions, and real understanding of the culture, the timing, and the moments that matter.

we mix live. no random pre-made sets. we can flip from Amr Diab to 50 Cent to Elissa to Bad Bunny and back again without losing the floor.
one time in Bay Ridge, we had a Lebanese-Palestinian wedding with 250 guests. they came in loud. we opened with live zaffa drummers, then transitioned into classic dabke — then flipped it with a French remix and back into hip-hop. no one sat down all night.
in Astoria, bride’s side was Moroccan, groom’s was Egyptian. we created a set that blended both — upbeat Rai, shaabi beats, old-school Abdel Halim, then wrapped with Nancy Ajram for the final dance. every generation was on the floor.
did another one in Jersey City — more modern crowd. they gave us Arabic remixes, house tracks, and wanted a little dancehall too. we made it work smooth. even the parents were shocked it could blend like that.
Arabic weddings got a different rhythm. there’s order in the chaos. the music has to rise, fall, come back stronger, then end big.
we don’t just play songs. we read the crowd. we hit the energy the moment it dips. we know how to build tension and release it with the drop — just like your uncle expects.
we also know when to not play — like during a speech from jiddo or when the bride needs a minute before the next set. we host with respect, guide with energy, and never overdo it.
most Arabic weddings in NYC bring together two cultures. Arabic + American. Muslim + Christian. family from the Middle East mixed with local NYC friends.
we build music sets that make everyone feel seen — old, young, Arab, not Arab — without ever losing the soul of the night.
