Awarded Best of Zola
I simply cannot express in words how grateful I am to Kevin, Tiffany, Emmanuel, and the entire team at Seduction Soundz for their excellent service and professionalism from beginning to end throughout the process of planning our wedding. My husband and I got married just over two weeks ago and Emmanuel, our MC, as well as Kevin, our DJ, brought the exact energy we needed for our wedding reception. Tiffany kept consistent communication through the process with everything involving the music and vision for our special day. Every bride goes through such a vast array of positive and negative emotions the day of, but by the end of the reception, my husband and I were drenched in sweat from dancing the last few hours of our reception. Not a single guest was left sitting in their seats in the end and I have so many hilarious and fun videos of myself and my family having an amazing time.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Hook Club was by far the coolest musicians I was able to find in terms of having an NYC night out vibe, and not a typical "wedding" vibe. We had a bass and guitar duo for our cocktail hour. They were super nice and awesome musicians. It started raining an hour into our cocktails so we had to move inside, and the bassist switched to playing a piano so that we could continue the music inside. Everyone was so impressed by how multi-talented they were!! Loved them and wish we had them play music for more of our reception. Dan, the founder, as well as the rest of their staff were incredibly organized and attentive throughout the planning process. Highly recommend!!

A 16-year veteran of the NYC club scene. I collaborate closely with couples to create their unique musical experiences for themselves and their guests by delivering a Sophisticated Savoire-Faire of seamlessly blended hits from past decades to what's currently in vogue; citing T-40 Dance, House, IndiePop/Rock, Nu-Disko, Hip Hop, Funk, Soul, Disco, Latin and Reggae as some of my favorites.

Awarded Best of Zola
Marcus DJ'd my wedding this month, and I can not say enough good things about my experience working with him. During our initial conversations, he was a super diligent listener and made sure to ask a lot of questions to make sure he got a feel for what we wanted out of the evening. He was also super prompt in his replies when we had questions or concerns throughout the planning process. His music worksheet was also really helpful in terms of helping us to nail down the exact vibe that we wanted on the big day. And then, the MAGIC happened! On the day, Marcus was punctual and came fully prepared with everything he needed for setup. He also dressed for the night in a very sharp suit that was perfectly fit for the occasion. He curated the music for the evening absolutely perfectly — we literally could not keep people off of the dance floor. Folks were coming up to us all night to ask for his information because they were so impressed by how well he curated the vibes. The real kicker was that in my father's speech he mentioned that he and I used to sing Rod Stewart's "Maggie May" together in the car. I, of course, did not know this would be mentioned, but right as the speech ended Marcus had Maggie May queued up and played right into the chorus. It was a moment my family and I will not soon forget. If you're in the market for a wedding DJ, or really a DJ for any occasion, look no further than Marcus. You will not be disappointed!

45 Riots is a band, boutique live music entertainment company, and independent record label based in NYC. 45 Riots provides hand-crafted, energized live-music ensembles for high-end private parties and gala corporate affairs. Founded in late 2011 in New York City, 45 Riots has grown to perform 150 events per year in addition to maintaining a busy NYC nightclub schedule (*pre-COVID) and backing up renowned music artists in concert. Our mission is to offer clients a sincere live-music onstage performance, bringing a genuine NYC concert experience to private events with jam-packed dance floors from start to finish.

To put it simply, you have to hire 45 Riots. It is not an exaggeration to say that every person at my wedding came up to my parents, my husband or I to say this was the best wedding band they'd ever seen. I'm in the Broadway community, and my husband's father is a professional musician, so that's high praise coming from people who know music! From start to finish, they were great about communication and getting to know our tastes. At the wedding, every song was a hit and the dance floor was packed. They were great about reading the room and handling all our formalities, including ceremony music and cocktail hour. Additionally, they had no problem learning songs that we wanted that weren't on their Song List. My husband's father is in a well-known rock band and 45 Riots learned a 7-minute long hit song of theirs to play with my father-in-law & brother-in-law. To say that performance was epic is an understatement. They completely rose to the occasion and our guests were floored. I can't recommend 45 Riots enough! Thanks for everything, guys!

We booked Sound Society for our wedding last month after seeing them perform at a wedding band showcase and WOW did they deliver!!! We ended up booking Sound Society as a three piece string arrangement for our ceremony and as a 10-piece band for our reception with emcee duties and they hit it out of the park. Every part of the process was simple and organized-- Neil from their team helped us choose special songs for the ceremony, tailor our do-not-plays and must-plays for the evening, and plotted out speaking cues throughout the night. A month later and we are still getting compliments about how alive our wedding band was!

My husband and I were planning a celebration in Hoboken for the fall of ’24 and when it came time to book our DJ, I knew that I wanted to book with 4AM without question. Having worked with Madison Janice before (I work in hospitality events), I already knew that they are the absolute best at what they do and would match us with the perfect DJ. That they did, and soon we were connected with DJ TRE, who’s an absolute ray of sunshine KILLER DJ. When certain circumstances forced us to rethink the wedding location and cancel the Hoboken event, we needed to regroup and change our original plans. We eventually decided on a smaller, intimate event in Malibu, and the 4AM team was BEYOND accommodating and understanding and we were so grateful to learn that TRE could DJ for us on the West Coast! Tre was incredible on our big day and kept our friends and family grooving all day – she provided the perfect soundtrack to the most spectacular Malibu day.

Louis Josephson, a Juilliard graduate, is a versatile musician known for his exceptional talent. With a repertoire spanning Broadway classics, jazz, rock, and pop, he caters to diverse musical tastes. Louis loves taking requests, as he knows most songs in the repertoire but can also sight read and/or play by ear. Backed by a network of NYC musicians, his polished performances leave a lasting impression, whether setting the mood with smooth jazz or energizing with upbeat pop.

What can I say about this wonderful person, and fantastic musician? Louis is very talented, in his piano playing and singing, his knowledge about all musical genres, and mostly in his ability to put everyone at ease in both musical and social settings. He even got the group who live in a memory care unit to laugh at his substitution of the lady residents' names (Anita and Bonita) for Maria from West Side Story. He plays and sings beautifully, and also writes his own compositions. Everyone looks forward to being with him, whether he is entertaining at the piano or discussing the motifs in Kanter and Ebb musicals. If my children were getting married now I would have Louis take care of the music for their weddings in an instant. I would love to tell you more about this remarkable young man, so get in touch with me if you want.

From DJing college house parties to packed clubs to music festivals, I've experienced the thrills of creating EPIC events through music. Weddings should be no different, but it requires a personal touch that brings out the stylistic uniqueness of each couple. I still remember having my own epic wedding dance party with my friends & family 10 years ago, and my goal is to give our couples the same! Remixologists is our team of talented like-minded DJs who share the client-focus & music versatility that I believe make the difference between having a good wedding and an AMAZING ONE for the ages!

The Party Can't Stop Won't Stop! I need to think of an excuse to gather friends and family together just so that I can have DJ Taiga spin again. Simon was incredibly responsive from the get go and organized – he had a special spreadsheet and website to organize the various aspects of the day and when/if music will be needed). And that’s just who he is from a business standpoint. In terms of his abilities as a DJ, let’s just say the dance floor was packed all night and people were disappointed the night had to end. He even got my dad to dance; it was literally the first time in my life I’ve seen my dad dance. SIMON’S THAT GOOD. I gave him a list of songs/genres and he took those inspirations to create a dance mix that was, as the youths call it, LIT AF.

I am so glad we chose A Starry Night Music for our wedding! Carol was absolutely lovely, from the first phone call to the last dance song. She understood exactly the vibe we wanted and stuck to it! She was super easy to communicate with and had fantastic song ideas. Everything went so smoothly on the day and the music flowed so nicely. We are so grateful that we had such an amazing DJ!

A Metro Wedding 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,800
  • Serves Manhattan, NY

As a homegrown, native NYC-based wedding DJ, I allow the music to speak for itself in a way that is organic and authentic. With an elegant & refined approach, I accommodate any eclectic flavor and curate a tasteful wedding celebration all based on your musical preferences. What you won’t get? A stereotypical, cheesy DJ stealing the spotlight and breaking up the music with bad jokes and unnecessary interruptions. You deserve better. Expect a personal and individualized celebration with great music, precise attention to detail and a fun-filled dance party — all based on 15 years of wedding experience.

Joe was a pleasure to work with! He has a calming yet excited energy that made us confident that he’d be the perfect wedding DJ from day 1, even when our plans and vision were still all over the place. On our wedding day, Joe helped everything run smoothly, from coordinating with other musicians, setting up the mic for the toasts, through, obviously, making sure every single guest was having a blast at the dance floor! Several guests commented on how friendly and fun Joe was! We highly recommend Joe to any event!!!
