Afino Entertainment

tail and took the time to explain how things would go. Very reassuring at each stage, especially when we worried rain might make us move the ceremony indoors. Thankfully the sun shone for us! Must say Afino was well-priced for all the work that went into our wedding. Afino’s online forms made planning and paying expertly efficient. Highly recommend!

to the wedding to get a detailed understanding of what you have in mind and ever so tactfully makes suggestions that elevates your original idea. He follows up with a detailed questionnaire regarding the music and events for the day and then consults with you again to review it, and offers more suggestions to make the day go as smoothly as possible and of course to maximize the fun! He literally helped me customize a playlist that I was unsure how to go about designing, crafted my wedding timeline with me down to the half hour, and suggested creative ways to end the night (not to mention he's also just fun to chat with, like an old friend!). He's highly professional, super responsive, thoughtful, reliable and just an awesome DJ. He is also very eclectic and versatile when it comes to music, so he can easily DJ for any type of audience. I highly recommend Afino Entertainment!

t. He took the time to call us a few days before our wedding and go over the entire format with us. We had a lot of questions and he answered them completely. We felt more at ease after speaking with Dave and I trusted completely that everything would just go perfectly. My friends and family have been raving about Dave since the night of our wedding. There was a great flow of music throughout the night and it kept everyone on the dance floor. I was always so excited to see that he made a short video of the entire day. Of him setting up the event ,and all the hard work he put into it, to pieces of our vows, dancing, and the ending of an amazing night!

nd songs to definitely skip. He delivered on all fronts. The dance floor was nearly always full, and all groups (parents, younger folks) danced the night away. He even was nice enough to record the toasts and when our band performed so that we could have that too. He also brought his own lighting - we were worried it'd be cheesy but it turned out to be great! HIghly recommend his services and would happily use Dave again for in the future!!

email, and followed-up when he was available with a thorough and USEFUL answer--even when I made things complicated and asked if he'd share his speaker system so my cousin could play keyboard during the cocktail hour! He provided specs, pics, and traded cell numbers. I joked, at one point on the phone, that I was just going to ignore him all night long and enjoy my wedding and he honestly told me I should: It was his job to make my guests happy and it was my job to enjoy my day. Boy was he right. Dave put together an instrumental playlist for the ceremony that had my guests asking for a copy the instant cocktail hour started and had the dance floor PACKED all night long. My friends and family had a blast. The real kicker? I didn't get to meet him until after cocktail hour! I'm glad I ignored him (and I say that in the fondest of ways!). That he was the Hand of the Queen all night, I have no doubt.

o the wedding day. He was very responsive and gave us a lot of ideas to make our wedding day even more special! He showed up to the venue early to make sure everything was set up and ready to go. He seamlessly took care of the arrival, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner music and the reception and created an amazing atmosphere for us and our guests throughout the night. We also greatly appreciated his kindness and true passion for what he does. We couldn't have been happier and would recommend Dave to anyone!

nd knowing my love for Disney, included some of my favorites during dinner. It was a hot day and the air conditioning broke at our venue. Despite the heat, Dave managed to get our guests on the dance floor to sweat even more! His recap video was quite touching as well.

t super easy to schedule times to discuss the set list and schedule for the big day, answering all questions and putting a bride-to-be at ease!

yed the slow songs while I was catching my breath outside. He was very attentive, and our guests seemed very happy and got up and danced! Seeing a recap video after the wedding was just icing on the cake!

all I saw were smiles and sweat lol. "my feet hurt from dancing so much" is what I kept hearing! will recommend him at anyone plus has a YouTube channel so you can view ours n other parties he has done.

and-out not so positive review. DJ Afino was cordial and professional in his response that I read online to that review, so I knew he was something special. We had conference calls and communication through e-mail was super easy. He aced everything that I threw at him including changes with only hours (and minutes) notice. Everyone loved the music. He read the crowd and played music that got everyone dancing. A++++

gy, got everyone on the dance floor having the best time ever. So many guests praised the playlist! He really brought our celebratory party to the next level - cannot thank him enough! A real Pro and we'd highly recommend him for any unique couple's special moments!

was packed all night! After the wedding, Dave sent us a follow up email with short video he created to remember the night. We would highly recommend DJ Afino for any wedding or event in the NJ/ NYC area!

ng I asked for, any concern I had, Dave responded right away with a solution and some other options. It really made the process so much easier and made the night such a blast! He was so helpful, professional, and calm...basically a type of person you need at your wedding. He played music that had our guests dancing yet still very wedding/family appropriate, which is harder than it seems. 11/10 would recommend!

st day/night of our lives!. The music during the ceremony, cock-tail hour and reception were exactly what we had planned!. Dave is a great/active listener and very attentive when it comes to exactly what songs you'd like to play throughout each part of your wedding day. I was very impressed with how much time and dedication he took out of his schedule to meet with us and answer any questions we had leading up to the big day. He's never late to a meeting and always gives you a clear understanding of what to expect when hiring him. What stands out about Dave is that he is a creative soul and he isn't afraid to help you come up with unique/realistic ideas. I wanted to surprise my wife during our first dance with something different. I'm a musician and wanted to incorporate that somehow within the song we decided to dance to. I decided to pre-record myself playing the drums to our first dance song and then while dancing with her during our first dance, I'd run out of the venue. At that point, Dave would be responsible for projecting my pre-recroded video onto the big TV screen for the whole party to see. Dave helped me understand exactly how he'd be able to make this idea I had come to life. On the day of the wedding, Dave executed this plan flawlessly and made my wife so happy that she cried! It was a spectacular moment that I'll never forget. I'll never use another DJ Entertainment Company again!

and kept him in mind when we were planning our wedding. Our wedding was planned to be just a dinner party with 7 courses. We wanted a DJ to not only play music during the courses but also make the down time between courses more fun. From our first conversation with Dave, we knew we had our man. He knew exactly what we were trying to do and loved it. We went through all the songs we thought would be correct for the vibe and he built off that. The main thing we stressed to him was to feel out the room and play what the room wanted to hear. Once the dinner started, he played slower music to get people into the dinner feel then once the drinks started to flow, he played more and more upbeat songs (but didn’t force it). What started off as a dinner party became a full blown dance party. At the event he was professional, on time, had a great setup and knew what to do and when. We had several guests tell us the DJ was perfect and they asked where we found him. I cannot thank Dave enough for his enthusiasm, professionalism and skill as a DJ. We would highly recommend him for any event.

how and when we needed certain songs to be played during our reception. Since we had a daytime wedding, we didn't think we wanted to dance and also didn't think our guests would spend much time on the dance floor. We were so wrong! We were out on the dance floor with our guests having a great time. We really have to credit Dave for that! He knows how to read a crowd and play what's appropriate in the moment. We couldn't recommend Afino Entertainment enough!

great he is! He did everything we asked and then some. He made our day stressfree and fun! His equipment is awesome and he takes pride in what he does. We would highly recommend Dave again . Thanks Dave, you rock!!!....lisa and Ian

music. Dave is extremely attentive to detail and knows how to both read and please a crowd! He played a huge part in making our wedding night perfect. It was such a pleasure working with him and would recommend Afino Entertainment to all brides and grooms! We hope to work with Dave again in the future.

takes the time to understand your vision, musical preferences and program details. He is very knowledgeable and makes suggestions based on his experiences. He has an amazing personality, punctual, and very organized. He is very detailed oriented and didn't miss a beat throughout our wedding. He even stepped in to help us with the reception entrance line up (something he didn't have to do) and im glad he did! He saw an opportunity that could have caused stress on us and was quick to suggest something to make sure everything continues to run smooth. He made sure we stuck to our timeline and made all necessary announcements. He read the crowd and played the right music to keep the dancing going. He does this cool thing at the end by gathering everyone on the floor to take a group photo, I thought that was amazing! Also suggesting a bride and groom last dance was a perfect close out to our wedding day. He was definitely worth the investment. We are strong believers in you get what you pay for and what we received was priceless!

all the way in Philadelphia but he was happy to be there even with a long drive to and from the venue! I highly recommend dave for your DJ needs for any event.

d always willing to give you feedback to make sure everything on the big day goes smoothly. He accommodated all of our requests and everything played out super smoothly on the big day. My family is Brazilian and he did a great job incorporating the Brazilian songs into all parts of the wedding and we had a good mix of both cultures - it was truly incredible! He coordinated with the venue very well, all of our guests loved him and his energy is truly amazing! I had some friends that are getting married next year ask for his information and I didn't hesitate one bit! I'd recommend Afino Entertainment to anyone! My husband and I were so so happy and we couldn't thank Dave enough for everything and for giving us such a memorable day <3

eptional. His professionalism, attentiveness, kindness and experience are extremely notable. I highly recommend this outstanding company to anyone.

accommodating with my Monday evening wedding!! He had the party going all night and almost everyone complimented me on how much fun he was! Thank you so much Dave!!

efinitely highly recommend!! Dave always does such an amazing job!

rom the night and our biggest fear was that the dance floor would be empty. Both our families are big dancers and wedding people so we knew that we had to pick the right DJ – and boy did we pick the right one! At our first in person meeting with Dave we knew he was the right choice. Dave was warm, inviting, friendly and extremely professional. As a gay couple we were very impressed by his openness and that he had same sex wedding paperwork, since on so many of our wedding papers we had Groom and Bride signature lines. In addition to this we never had to ask any of our questions since Dave consistently soothed our worries by just explaining his process and approach. We wanted a DJ that knew and loved his craft and didn’t just hit play on a playlist, but could read a room and weave music and styles together and Dave did all this masterfully. Afino’s professionalism and respect for the job is demonstrated by his very detailed pre-wedding questionnaire he has you do before you big day. It may seem like a lot, but it was very enjoyable for us both and really helped us think critically about the type of music and night we wanted. Dave gives you a lot of options for the night, but remember everything is customizable and he is very, very easy and open to work with. By the way, if you are thinking this questionnaire is a glorified playlist you are wrong – it is a guide and that was clear to us on the wedding day when Dave played music and songs we would have never thought of, but fit the mood perfectly and kept everyone raging. At our wedding day Dave truly brought everything together for an amazing and fun night. That may sound like a cliché that everyone says about their wedding, but in our case it was absolutely true. With the few exceptions of during speeches and in the beginning of the main course that dance floor was never empty! We have had so many people come to us and say how amazing the music was and that it was one of the most fun weddings they have been to. To date at least 2 people have asked for his info to recommend for other weddings and our cousin is using Dave for her wedding in September. Picking a DJ can be hard work and something couples worry a lot about, but look no further folks. If you are here reading this – BOOK DAVE – DJ AFINO NOW! You will not regret it!

rsonnel. We've been to a few weddings this past year and I've got to say Dave is fully capable of providing the same or superior atmosphere as those who charge MUCH more. The service he provides leaves nothing to be desired. He walked us through everything before the wedding and made sure everything was as we wanted it. My wife and I enjoyed picking out the music on the website Dave provides (optional) and he stuck to what we wanted and totally embraced the vibe we were going for. I can't imagine why anyone pay 2 - 3 times what Dave charges for a McDJ when you could have someone who takes pride in offering a high quality service.

nality. He really set the perfect mood for our wedding. Thank you again Dave!

ony, cocktail hour and reception. Every time I reached out Dave responded right away and made sure our day was perfect. I asked him to put together a dance mix for my father daughter dance, with in hours he emailed me the mix. His response time and customer service skills are exceptional. The dance floor was full of dancing the whole night. He was amazing! Thank you Dave for making my day perfect. You are amazing at what you do!

beautiful, he performed our pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour and long extended reception. We had an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour and Dave used all of his wireless equipment. The crowd never stopped dancing and he read everyone's mood to keep the dance floor full. He even customized our first dance song, and managed to capture us completely. Music is a VERY important part of our lives and we're honored to say Dave was our wedding day DJ. If you're getting married in the tri-state area and haven't booked Dave, you're crazy. I already have friends booking him for Fall 2018! Thank you sooooooo much! ~ Matija and Joe

gs easy for us. He has a great presence, and voice on the mic, is very easy-going and was a real pleasure to work with. He played all the songs we asked for and added to that vibe by filling in the gaps with his own additions. Everyone had an awesome time and danced the whole night. We got amazing feedback from our guests all night about the music. We really felt he went above and beyond, and we highly recommend his services. Thanks again, Dave! G&J

he party going all night and made sure our guests were up dancing and having a good time. He created a great atmosphere with both the music and the up-lighting... and not to mention dancing on the clouds for our first dance as husband and wife. We are so happy with Dave's professionalism and would recommend him to ANYONE!

re our guests were able to get up and dance throughout the night and throughout our sit down dinner.Dave was energetic throughout the whole night, he even jumped on the dance floor and danced with us. We had a custom entrance that he helped us orchestrate it was just perfect! We also had a custom monogram which Dave placed perfectly in our ballroom. At the end of the night he helped our guests all get together on the dance floor for a group photo (his idea which we loved). He even made a hilight video of the day which is something we have never seen from a DJ. I wish we were getting married again this weekend so we could do it all again. Thank you DJ Afino for making our wedding rock! We love You! Love Tony & Kym Lezotte

nd knew how to keep everyone entertained. He even made sure the end of the wedding was amazing and even instilled a great way to include everyone. Which was a great hit!! The booking process was seamless, easy as 1-2-3 and prior to the wedding event he walked me through the entire night which eased any stress I had about how the night would go. He had us fill out a format and took our music requests and built an awesome night based off of it. He did not miss a beat throughout the night. He definitely is very professional and you can see he loves to entertain. I would recommend using DJ Afino for any wedding or party need!

and still provide stellar service - you won't even feel that you're missing out on anything because he is such a professional and personable guy.

e time and effort on the phone late one night to go over the details of the day. Guests loved the selection of music which ranged from doo-wop to latin to popular music of today! And his signature ending of the night was something we had never seen before! Thank you for also getting the amazing logo up on the wall for our guests to enjoy. It was a surprise for all to see, and added that sweet touch to the picturesque night.

ey knew and could dance to. He is clearly passionate about what he does and was so easy and fun to work with. All the guests really enjoyed the entertainment! He helped make our wedding day perfect!

st of all, from start to finish, he is a reliable professional. Extraordinarily attentive and easy to talk to. He makes himself available to talk about any of your wedding details and always responds promptly and thoughtfully. He was a pleasure to work with, affordable for NYC and really delivered. He brings the party! His equipment and mixing skills are excellent. He provided the sound and equipment for our outdoor wedding ceremony, our cocktail hour in a separate tent and in the ballroom for the reception. The sound all day was excellent. He provides an entertainment form that helps make sure you give him all the details you need for the special songs you want and when they're being played (processional, recessional, first dance, parent dances, etc.). He follows up on everything with you too. He is on top of what he's doing. He even asked me exactly when in the song I wanted my processional song to start when I walked down the aisle. I loved his attention to detail. During the reception, people were on the dance floor all night! We provided glow sticks for the last hour of dancing and he had awesome lights to project on the ceilings and it just made for an incredible dance party. Friends told me they hadn't danced that hard in a long time. Seriously, don't even worry about looking any further. Call Afino Entertainment, book DJ Afino and you'll have a blast! Thank you, Dave!
