ired anyone else!! Thank you Jay!
I’m so thankful we went with Jay for our wedding DJ. He has extensive knowledge of music and people. He took the time to make sure my fiancé and I had everything we wanted in music...
at the wedding. Jay also set the tone throughout the wedding and kept everyone’s energy up! He was much more than a DJ at our wedding because he went above and beyond to make sure we were having the best time we possible could. I’ll be booking Jay for any event that I need a DJ for! Thank you, again, Jay!!
If you are looking for an amazing DJ, look no further!!! Jay was hands down the best DJ we could have asked for our wedding. Not only is Jay's passion for what he does electric, he...
really knows how to get a crowd on the dance floor & keep them there! I was kind of crazy & particular, and Jay took my over 75 emails, over 5 hours on the phone, and all of my visions and dreams into consideration and literally made it the best day for my husband and I. He was so genuine throughout the whole process, and we both felt that Jay was so excited and honored to be a part of our special day. You will absolutely make the best decision hiring Jay. He is the best in the business!
Jay is awesome... He was the DJ for our wedding and was outstanding. We honestly didn't give him much to work on in terms of what we like for music (since we like just about every...
thing). But WOW he made it work. We had multiple compliments from guests saying how great the music is. There wasn't a minute that people were not on the dance floor. Thank you for making our day so great Jay!!
Jay is the best DJ ever. He not only made us feel completely at ease during the whole planning process, he knew exactly how to get our wedding guests excited and dancing. Jay was 1...
00% dedicated to making my husband and me happy and was willing to bend over backwards to make it happy. I highly recommend booking Jay!!!!!
Jay is hands down the best DJ out there!!! He definitely made our wedding one to remember and also made the entire planning experience a breeze. People are still messaging me days ...
after saying they can't get over how epic the dance party was!! Even the cocktail songs and dinner songs were beyond perfect. He created a vibe that got everyone comfortable and ready for fun!! He is incredibly talented with his ability to get the crowed on their feet dancing, while introducing those emotional songs without skipping a beat. Can't thank Brannan Entertainment enough for the outstanding memories, and sore feet ;) Our go to DJ for everything here on out!
We had the pleasure of having Jay Brannan as our DJ at our wedding last November. We originally contacted another DJ who was not available for our wedding date, but he then highly...
recommended Jay. We are sure glad Jay's colleague send us his way because we enjoyed our first visit and follow up visit with him. Very cool guy! We told him about all the events we wanted to have for the wedding including a traditional dance before the bouquet/garter toss. He was very helpful, flexible and supportive and helped make everything possible. We liked the music account he set up for our music list, everything was super organized. We also really wanted cumbia music and he had a great selection! On the wedding day everything was great! All of our planned events and music was perfect. All our guests, my husband and I had a great time! I remember so many people were dancing and when we finally saw the wedding video we saw so much more of all the fun people had, especially on the dance floor! Thank you Jay for being part of the special day and providing such awesome entertainment for everyone!
I loved working with Jay. When I was first planning our wedding, I didn't want to hire a DJ at all, but as we got closer to our wedding date, I started getting really nervous about...
the dance party - I really wanted to make sure that our guests had a great time (and us too!). One of my best girlfriends had hired Jay for her wedding, and he was great, so when I decided to look into DJs, he was at the top of my list. (My girlfriend highly recommended him of course, too). Luckily Jay was available and in our price range, so it was easy to say yes to booking him. I had a phone chat with him as like an "interview" to make sure our musical ideas were cohesive, which they were, and then we mostly communicated via email. Jay is very responsive. The Wednesday before the wedding we had another long chat about the wedding day music from the first song of the pre-ceremony music to last song of the night. He met all of my music expectations, party needs and more! We had 130 or so guests to the wedding and at midnight we probably had 50 people still on the dance floor, which is exactly what I wanted. During the reception, he was also really communicative with me. For instance, we did the Hava Nagila, which is the traditional song where the guests put the bride and groom on chairs and hoist them into the air. A few songs before that started, Jay came over to me and said something like, just give me a look when you're ready to be put down. After about 30 seconds of being in the air, I literally looked over to him, and he moved to the next song! My husband and I safely descended! :) It seems like a small thing, but when you have an open bar at a wedding, it's things like this that, as the bride, you worry about going smoothly. And Jay's awareness of timing, flow, guest/bride/groom needs set me at ease.
After a ton of interviews with DJs, I called Jay. He was recommended by my wedding coordinator and I am not sure why I just didn't go to him first. My biggest fear was that I wou...
ld have a DJ that tried to stay on the mike all night and my wedding coordinator assured that was NOT Jay's style. I met with him and we had an instant connection. After talking to my husband and I for about a 30 minutes he came up with all of these great music ideas that seemed to fit us perfectly. He walked us through the different parts of the night and gave us a punchlist of items that we needed to work on. His website was very easy to use and allows you to work on the music a little each day and save your selections. We also had Jay do the uplighting for the reception and I can tell you that it was definitely worth the extra money. Our photographer told us that up lighting always adds a lot to the pictures and he was right. We were on a pretty tight budget, but for less than $200, it was well worth it.
Jay knew how to work the crowd the whole night. If he had an idea of a song that was not on my play list he would come and tell me, and each time the guests loved it. I had so many friends tell me how great he was after the wedding.
Another great thing was Jay dressed according to our weddings attire. The last thing you want is a DJ that is wearing jeans when you have a formal wedding.
I have NO negative commments about Jay and I highly recommend his services.
Jay Brannan was my MC, my ceremony/cocktail hour music, and my reception music all in one. He kept my guests dancing, and had a lot of fun with it. He also was integral in the pl...
anning process and is there to help you out if you need it.
We are so thankful to have had Jay as our DJ - he did a phenomenal job from start to finish and was always happy to speak with us or meet with us through the planning process. We w...
ere very confident in his abilities and were happy that he realized the day is about us, not about him putting on a performance (we have experienced this "performance" DJ at several weddings and knew this was not for us!). Each time we met with Jay, he was great at balancing what we wanted with some great suggestions he had based on his vast experience.
He was very well prepared on the day of and was great at keeping us updated on the flow of the day to make sure we weren't behind schedule and that the pace of the day was ok with us.
We would highly recommend Jay and can confidently say that you would be very pleased in hiring him for your big day.
Jay was a great MC and DJ. We partied and had such a great time dancing. He ran everything perfectly. His knowledge of music and trends is unbeatable. the best!
Having a groom who is a musician made finding a DJ an extremely important part of the wedding planning process. We clicked with Jay immediately. He knows his music well, and it w...
as a plus that he was familiar with my groom's eclectic taste in music! He was highly recommended by our wedding coordinator and we couldn't have made a better decision. His experience with weddings helped make planning the timeline of the wedding day easy. It was also really nice to be able to use his website to find songs and choose custom songs for the wedding. He also did a really good job of making sure he knew our own personal taste in music and stayed true to his word on not playing anything on our do not play list, even if a guest asked him to play something that we didn't want played at our wedding. He was worth every penny!
DJ Brannan was wonderful to work with. He really does take out the time to make sure he truly understands what the bride expects from him. From our first meeting, he was able to pr...
ovide a timeline which set the stage for everyone else we dealt with in our wedding journey. He is knowledgeable of a large variety of music and has a charming personality to ease anyone from requesting the most hated songs by the B&G! He has wonderful access to equipment that allows for a one of a kind wedding experience.
First off - I have never given anyone a perfect review because no matter how thoroughly satisfied I am with something I always find something to nitpick. However I can't imagine...
a better DJ and MC to perform at our wedding than Jay Brannan. I went to a friend's wedding and liked their DJ so I asked for his info from the bride who highly recommended him. Turns out I've actually been to 2 weddings that he's DJ'd and he was scheduled to be at an acquaintance's wedding. He's obviously popular among my friends so it would have been stupid not to go with him right? The most wonderful thing about the fact that within my circle of friends including ours he's performed 4 weddings - and not ONE of them sounded alike. Jay's weddings... they sound like the couple if that make sense. He reads your personality on top of asking you what kind of music you like so he doesn't just play your favorite artist on a loop he comes up with songs that fit in perfectly with the mood you're going for. On top of the fantastic music & entertainment his room & dance lights were A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. The dance lights kept everything fun looking but that wasn't the best part. So... you know how sometimes you're wearing an outfit that looks nice but something's missing - then you realize you have the perfect necklace to match the outfit and all of a sudden your outfit is rocking? Right... well the pink lights he used to go with the theme of the wedding was like that gorgeous necklace. Seriously if you want your wedding to look refined go with the lights! He's got an outgoing personality knows how to get the attention in a room full of guests and you can tell he really loves his work. I am so happy that I have friends with good taste!
This guy knows how to perform at weddings. You pick your songs, give him a list of your wedding party and he timed the receiption to the tee. Very professional and he was recommend...
