Terrence is absolutely top-notch! From the very first conversation that we had, all the way through the end of my son's wedding, he was absolutely amazing! He's extremely professional and extremely responsive! Every single message was replied to and every single phone call was either immediately answered or promptly returned! His equipment was fabulous and I just know that my son's wedding would not have been the same without him! He was absolutely on point with all of the different cues and songs for the wedding ceremony and his excellence carried over to the reception! We will absolutely be using him again! We just cannot thank him enough for his expertise and his kindness!
985 DJs was absolutely amazing! He kept the energy up all night and made sure everyone was having a great time. He even let my brother-in-law join in on the DJing, which made the night even more fun and memorable. He truly brought the whole party together — we couldn’t have asked for better!
researched DJs before hiring, looking at reviews. My husband and I decided on 985 DJ. We explained our music interests (which was a WIDE range) and Terrance delivered a non stop party at our reception! We even had guests, on the dance floor, tell us how much fun they were having and the music was top tier, the best they had ever experienced at a wedding. We even had special events throughout the reception that Terrance was able to accommodate and make the night even more special!
We are still having people tell us how much fun they had at our wedding and that it was the best they had ever been to!
HIGHLY recommend 985 DJ!
Terrance was the DJ for my wedding and he made our night! He was on point with the music and made sure to keep a crowd on the dance floor at all times! You cannot go wrong with having him as your DJ! They also have a photobooth you can add on and it is a must! So much fun for all the guests and you get a copy of the photos!
Terrance with 985 DJs is hands down the best and the way to go!! I just got married on November 23, 2024 and Terrance was very professional, knew exactly how to read the room, kept our guests on the dance floor ALL night (4.5 hour reception!), he honored all our requests even down to last minute changes during the reception! Not too mention the Photo Booth was a huge hit! Terrance was always available to answer and questions we had. If you’re looking for a fun night of dancing for yourself and all guest look no further! Just book Terrance with 985 DJs!! You won’t be disappointed! And you’re welcome ahead of time!
Terrance was wonderful to work with! He gave amazingly prompt responses to all of our questions, made the planning process straightforward, and didn't miss a beat (pun intended) the night of our wedding. I would highly recommend him!
Terrance is a great guy. He arrived early and had everything taken care of for us. Couldn’t recommend them enough.
We had our wedding on Nov. 9th and Terrance absolutely went above and beyond! The music was amazing and we loved having the sparkler and smoke machine. We can’t recommend him enough. He kept the party going all night long!
We HIGHLY recommend Terrance for your wedding!! We had the absolute best night!! He was quick and so helpful with all of my questions throughout the planning process, and everyone had a blast! I added the Photo Booth and it was a huge hit! The backdrop, props, & you get all the pictures after! 10/10 recommend! Thank you so much!
The absolute best! We used Terrance with 985 DJ’s for our wedding and he was phenomenal! There was a language barrier at my wedding and he even attempted to make announcements in Spanish! So kind & easy to work with! I highly recommend!
AMAZING DJ!!! We used 985DJ for both the ceremony and reception. The ceremony was perfect our guest said it reminded the of Bridgerton. The music selection from the DJ fit the vibe of our reception perfectly! Our guest were dancing & singing!
We definitely would recommend 985 DJs for all your music needs! We hired 985 DJs for our wedding and loved working with Terrence throughout the months leading up to the Big Day. We had a huge playlist for the reception and some hard-to-find international pieces for the ceremony, all of which Terrence played perfectly. Seamless setup + great emceeing skills + a super user-friendly platform for music selections = one happy couple.
I booked 985 Dj's for my wedding and he did an amazing job! I told him exactly how I wanted for my ceremony and he made it happen! He even called a week before to run through the whole thing. I definitely recommend him!
Terrance from 985 DJ's did our wedding this past February and everything from his setup to the music mixing was fantastic! Very easy to meet with before hand and listened to all of our requests. 10/10
110% recommend Terrance and 985 DJ’s. Throughout the entire planning process he was always available to answer questions and make
everything go smoothly to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. When it came time for the wedding he blew us out the water! Dancing on the clouds, cold sparks, Photo Booth, monogram,and making sure all of our special requests songs played exactly when we wanted. He did it all and everyone at the wedding loved him! Thank you Terrance!!
985 DJ's is wonderful. They recently DJ'd my wedding in New Orleans and did an amazing job. Terrance was spot on with the music we selected, also sure to take last minute requests during the reception. He was also extremely flexible as we had some last minute changes to our wedding ceremony timeline. I was able to text him that day and he ensured everything would be adjusted. Also, I was impressed with how easy it was to organize the music we selected. 985 DJ's provides an easy to use event planner website where you can easily make your payments and request or select each type of song you want for your wedding including your special event requests (ie cake cutting, bridal march, first dance, etc.). If 985 DJ's doesn't have the song in the inventory list you can type it in and they will make every effort to play it for you! I can't thank them enough for all of their hard work and being a part of our special day!
Terrance was so amazing! Our reception was a combo of songs we got to request and songs he chose based on our taste and the guests’ energy. Despite very cold temps, our dance floor was packed all night and the reception was a blast. All our special dances were lovely and executed without an issue. Terrance was incredibly easy to work with, kind, and helpful through the whole experience, and I couldn’t have imagined our wedding without his services! If you’re looking for a New Orleans wedding DJ, this is your best choice hands down!
Our 985 DJ, Terrance, was AMAZING! We got tons of compliments on our DJ and music from our wedding guests. We gave Terrance a wild ride of some of our favorite songs, but he managed to flow through effortlessly. He managed to start with classics that the older guests love, transitioned to a wild rave song and then Taylor swift, and still managed to end with a classic Beatles song. All without any awkward transitions or pauses - just non-stop great music. We also opted for 985 DJ's photo booth and dance floor lights and we thrilled with both. The photo booth looked great and was a hit with our guests and the dance floor lights added even more fun to the party. Would definitely recommend!
985 DJ's Terrance did an AMAZING job at our event!! Our guests had a great time and everyone was on the dance floor. I am still hearing great feedback from our guests. Thank you, Terrance!
All I really wanted for my wedding reception was a giant dance party with my loved ones, and 985 DJs brought that to life! We all had SO much fun. The portal they provide is very easy to use and they can also pull pretty much any song you need that isn't on there too.
Gregory at 985 DJs kept everyone on their feet for our entire 4 hour wedding reception. Incredible! This was a destination wedding and being music people, we were worried about rolling the dice from afar, but after a few conversations with Terrance, we knew we were in good hands. We were able to add all our must-play songs to an online portal and were prompted with a countdown leading up to our deadline. And we had a run-through with Terrance a week prior. All that attention made certain our wedding vibe was going to be what we wanted it to be: a dance party with all our favorite songs (and a few requests we allowed). THANK YOU!
GET 985 DJ for your wedding!!!!! Terrence was awesome
I had lots of questions and he answered all of the
Was a great announcer and a great DJ at the same time!!!!!
Terrance was incredible! He was so kind, responsive and accommodating of our requests. He created an outstanding playlist that kept our guests dancing all night. We’re so grateful we chose 985 Djs! Thank you so much, Terrance! We had the best night!
Terrance was our wedding DJ this past weekend and we could not have asked for a better DJ and experience. He was the highlight of our wedding.
We first reached out several months ago via email. Terrance was quick to respond every time and was extremely helpful and accommodating with all the questions and requests we had.
The day of the wedding he showed up well before the ceremony, the music for the wedding was perfect.
As for the reception, the dance floor was bumping for the entire four hours. Terrance mixed all of the songs we requested and every one was played at the perfect time. We had so many compliments from friends and family about how fun the dance floor was.
All in all, we loved having Terrance DJ our wedding and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone. 10/10.
Terrance was a huge hit at our wedding! We absolutely loved working with 985 DJs to provide audio services for our outdoor ceremony and music for our reception! He was very friendly, personable, and easy to work with. I also loved the client portal that made it easy to customize our song choices and even find song options when we couldn't think of anything! He was also able to accommodate Spanish songs for our wedding, which meant a lot to me since I am Puerto Rican. His setup was great and he really kept the party going at our wedding! 10/10 would recommend. Thanks again Terrance!
Terrance was amazing! He was great with communicating with us in advance, he was sensitive to our various questions and requests, and he read the crowd's energy very well and kept the party going until the end. Everyone had a blast, and we had so many people telling us they hadn't had so much fun dancing in ages. Highly recommend 985 DJs!!
Terrance lived up to the hype. Every time we mentioned we booked 985 DJs with Terrance, it was met with “oh you’re going to love him!”. His ability to read the room and select music that kept people on the dance floor was incredible. Just when we thought we were tired and needed to rest, he would play a song that had us running back out to the dance floor. He was so accommodating, even when we changed our first dance song at the last minute. His website portal made the process for selecting music and creating the flow of the wedding so incredibly easy. We really enjoyed him and highly recommend booking him.
985DJ was amazing to work with for our reception, We had our reception at the NOPSI. They had lighting available which was great because the venue was so dark and we also opted for their photobooth which was a hit. Everyone commented on how they hadn’t been to a wedding where they danced the whole time! Jeff spoke with us a week before the wedding and we went through our timeline. He was really accommodating to last minute day of changes. I would highly recommend 895DJ for your wedding or event.
Was on time & very professional! He has a great online planning tool that is very helpful. I was able to create a very precise timeline with all of the songs we wanted played! Our guests danced all night & had an absolute blast!
Greg with 985 DJ’s was awesome! He played all of the songs we requested and was great and hyping the crowd at the appropriate times. Terrance was really great during the planning stages of our wedding! He helped me with using the music portal, made some last minute changes, and even mixed a song for me so that my ceremony music was perfect! They really do care and do their best to make sure that you have a magical night!
Terrance was amazing to work with!! Our wedding was on 11/4/22 and throughout the whole process, he was always available, flexible, and patient. I had a very specific vision for music and the vibe of the night, and Terrance made it all happen! His setup was also very professional and aesthetically appealing! Would highly recommend.
985djs keep the party rolling all night !! Very much enjoyed his services. Definitely pass the vibe check! Already have 2 friends considering his services for their wedding and would 100% recommend to everyone!! We stayed on the dance floor all night and people stayed until the very end. People keep talking about our wedding and it was a week ago already. Look forward to using y’all services again for any other dance party we decide to throw!!
Terrance was a great wedding DJ! We were able to set all of our requested songs in advance using his online portal and the entire event ran very smoothly! Highly recommend!
Terrance and Sonya were punctual, and kind! They kept the party jumpin, and were quick on their toes whenever we needed any “on the fly” music. Terrance was accommodating and communicated very well. They were inclusive and genuine, only feedback would be more inclusive verbiage added to the musical forms, terms such as “spouse” or “partner,” in addition to the traditional “bride and groom” terms to take that inclusivity one step further! All and all a wonderful team to work with, thank you for all that you did to keep our party lively and fun! We all have the blisters to prove we danced to your jams allllll day long!
They were so great and fun… everyone had a blast! The online portal made it so much easier to select “must play” or “do not play.” We had another DJ for a different event, and 985 DJ’s blew the other one away! So happy I went with them for our reception, and they were very easy to work with.
The music was great, they really understand our taste and style in music. They played such a variety, that all my guests were able to enjoy.
This guy was great, on time, extremely friendly, very professional. This guy was a life savor, I had another DJ booked but he canceled on me. So a friend told me to contact him and I’m glad I did and in one night 985Dj had everything done for me best decision I ever made
Terrence was absolutely terrific. He is so timely to respond to emails that you instantly feel taken care of and realize he is not a vendor you will have to chase down to make sure everything is getting done. This is invaluable when planning a wedding! Plus, the music was amazing! Absolutely would hire again!
We loved working with 985 DJ’s! The planning process was a breeze and the music choices were fabulous! Would definitely recommend and book again!
M y niece wanted her wedding to be one big New Orleans party & terrance with 985 DJs did not disappoint!!! His ability to read the room kept the energy high the entire night! He was very professional and easy to work with! Everyone had a phenomenal time!
We also hired his wife, Sonya, as the day of coordinator. She worked tirelessly fulfilling the brides every request and the night went off without a hitch! I would recommend 985 DJs for any event!
Terrance and his wife were so sweet, professional, and just a joy to have. Terrance was extremely accommodating. We had to change locations due to covid and then the Hurricane . He never hesitated when we told him, he kept in contact after the hurricane and I had not given him too much music wise and he nailed it. We all were dancing till the end! Recommend 100%
985 DJs made our wedding PHENOMENAL! We had people on the dance floor ALL. NIGHT. LONG. We received so many comments afterwards raving about how our wedding was such an amazing time. What made the night even more epic was they were able to recreate a YouTube video wedding reception introduction that my husband really wanted, and it was absolutely PERFECT. The announcing of our bridal party like a Chicago Bulls lineup was hilarious and such a hit with our group! It was such a great level of customer service how Terrance made that magic happen. Seriously, go book them NOW! I will be recommending them to all of my future friends getting hitched!
Everyone at our wedding had the BEST time!!! DJ was truly amazing!! Soo easy to work with and everyone had nothing but good things to say. Would definitely book again!
We LOVED working with 985 DJs. The whole process was so easy. Plus, the uplighting at our reception added such a beautiful ambiance in a ballroom. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for a fun DJ for their big day.
Terrance was awesome! He was professional and did a great job catching the vibe from the dancing crowd and keeping the party going.
DJ Terrance was absolutely amazing at our wedding at the Greystone! He had the dance floor full all night. His online music choice portal made planning very easy! Would definitely recommend!
We booked this DJ last minute, and he still provided everything expected and more. He was a life saver after our prior DJ cancelled. He was responsive enough to last minute changes due to crazy weather coming in. We couldn't have asked for more. He played all the requested songs, and played to the crowd. 1000% percent recommend.
Did a wonderful job at our wedding the music was great, was friendly, and still have guests complementing him highly recommend ❤️💯
If you are looking for a DJ for your event, you will be extremely happy with 985 DJ's. I am so happy I hired them for my wedding. A good time was had by all.
The amount of fun everyone had was epic. We danced for hours and everyone had an absolute blast! Our wedding was postponed due to Covid-19 they worked with us with zero problems. Thank you 985 djs you made our wedding spectacular.
