Thank you CNY Sound for an outstanding job at our wedding! Adam is professional, organized, outgoing and engaging. He made the planning and preparation extremely easy and we enjoyed working with him every step of the way. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ and it’s safe to say our guests felt the same!

My husband and I hired Adam for our wedding. He was an absolute professional from start to finish and a pleasure to work with. He was incredibly thorough and attentive. From our first meeting all the way through the end of wedding night, he made sure he understood what we wanted, what our tastes were, and everything in between. He was super easy to work with and we really appreciate all the effort he put in to make sure everything was smooth and to our preference. Would definitely recommend!

Adam from CNYSound was beyond incredible to work with for our wedding! He made the whole process so easy and fun, even setting up multiple meetings that worked with our busy schedules to make sure he totally understood what we were looking for and the vibe we were going for. He was super organized and customized everything to fit exactly what we wanted. Throughout the stressful wedding planning process, I can honestly say our DJ was one thing I never had to worry about! Adam was patient with my indecisiveness and was so reassuring that everything was going to be amazing!
On the day of the wedding, he kept the energy up and had everyone dancing the whole night. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they’d ever been to, and we know a huge part of that was because of Adam and all of his hard work. His music choices were tailored to exactly what we wanted, and he knew how to keep the party going. Plus, his pricing is super reasonable for everything he offers! We seriously can’t recommend CNYSound and Adam enough—he’s the best! If you’re looking for a DJ for your wedding or any event, definitely reach out to CNYSound!

Booking with CNY Sound is the #1 best choice you can make for your wedding. Adam is overall an amazing person to work with from start to finish.
Adam is down to make anything happen for your vision of the day. He can manage outdoor ceremony logistics, mic’ing up multiple officiants/speakers, cocktail hour music, dance floor selections, and overall vibe control during the whole party. He’s a dynamic host/emcee, as well as crazy talented and creative on the decks for your party. He worked with us to create a playlist (and arguably more important, a do not playlist) that was perfect for us, and our guests were raving about the party for days to come after the wedding. I’m sure there were also a dozen things he did behind the scenes that we have no idea about to make sure everything ran smoothly.
Adam was so open and flexible in terms of what we wanted our wedding to be. He has room in the program for all the classic wedding moments you want (and will happily cut any you don’t) and can work in any special local, cultural, or family traditions you can think of. He’ll even tactfully mix in Defying Gravity from Wicked if that’s your thing.
Adam was an amazing advocate for our vision of the day and was a huge part of making it happen. THANK YOU ADAM!!!

We hired Adam to DJ at our wedding. His price quote was the best we received, and I was impressed with his attention to detail, professionalism, and warmth right from the start. We had a small wedding (about 50 people) and the crowd was older, mostly in their 40s and up. Adam is young, but he really knows his music! He spent lots of time meeting with us to understand what kind of music we wanted and he was able to throw out suggestions that we hadn't even thought of. He provided the music for our ceremony as well as the reception and everything flowed beautifully. He was able to read the crowd well and many of us were on the dance floor from start to finish. All of our guests commented on the great job that he did. We highly recommend his services and would use him in the future if we ever needed a DJ for an event again!

Adam at CNY Sound was INCREDIBLE! We had a wonderful experience from start to finish when working with Adam. From the first interaction, Adam was professional and kind. He met with us multiple times leading up to the wedding to ensure he understood our vision and had everything the way we wanted it. At each meeting, Adam kept a running document with notes of wedding schedules and song requests. Adam even took extra time to create an instrumental mix of the bride’s favorite songs to walk down the aisle. CNY Sound worked with the bride & groom and venue staff during the day as plans changed up a bit due to weather. The alterations in schedule were made so perfectly by Adam that our guests didn’t even notice.
CNY Sound was organized and supported the flow of events throughout the wedding day. He helped with the line up of the wedding party for the reception entrances, and created an excellent mix of music that fostered the perfect dance floor environment. We are so thankful for CNY Sound helping to create our perfect day!

Adam with CNY sound was a pleasure to work with for our wedding this June! The music for my wedding was the thing I was the most picky about, and I really wanted a lot of control with the songs that were played throughout the day. Adam was very receptive to this and let us have free reign of the playlists while still providing helpful suggestions and playing the songs in an order that made sense. It was a very collaborative experience, and you could tell he really wanted to make sure we were happy with the music. Adam scheduled multiple meetings with us before the wedding to touch base and make sure he had everything lined up exactly how we wanted it. On the wedding day, he absolutely killed it and everyone had so much fun on the dance floor! He was a great hype man, and brought such fun energy to the reception. He was super organized and reviewed all the details with our bridal party and venue coordinator as many times as we need him to. Also, we had asked him to only accept song requests from the bride and groom, and he stood his ground which we appreciated! Some DJs want to take a lot of creative control when they play events, but Adam completely understood that this was our wedding, not his concert lol. We would recommend CNY to anyone who wants their specific vision executed perfectly! Thanks again Adam!

We chose Adam from CNYSound as our DJ for my daughter’s wedding on 5.25.2024. He comes with the highest recommendation that we could offer. He was so easy to work during the entire process and answered texts, emails and phone calls promptly and courteously. It is evident that Adam truly cares about people, it’s not just his job. He is high energy, creative and really knows how to bring the crowd to the dance floor. We pretty much choose every option that he offered and all were delivered with expertise. With all the decisions to be made for a wedding this is one we did not regret. Adam was amazing and works hard! Worth every penny. Thank you, Adam!

We had CNY Sound as the DJ for our wedding back in October and I cannot say enough positive things about them. To start off, Adam was extremely thorough when it came to discussing the type of music we wanted played, all of our options for different dances and games we could include and his library of songs is extensive. We met with Adam multiple times before the wedding, so that he could get to know us and our music style as well as making sure everything all of his i's were fitted and t's were crossed. The day of, was absolutely amazing. Everything went off without a problem and all of our guests enjoyed themselves on the dancefloor, many of them making sure to let us know how much they enjoyed our DJ.
If you are looking to have an amazing DJ who is meticulously prepared and loves to show his clients a good time, I highly recommend CNY Sounds!!!
Thank you Adam for helping to making our wedding the best day ever!!!

Adam,
Is an amazing DJ. He took all of our “must plays” and liked genres and helped make our wedding a day we will never forget. He brought his friend, Ben, who also helped make sure everything went smoothly. They both worked great together! We highly recommend CNY Sound!!

We can't speak highly enough of Adam and his commitment to exceptional work. His professionalism was apparent from the first meeting until the conclusion of the evening. He offered a wide range of services that elevated the evening from the ceremony to the last dance. If you're looking for a wedding DJ, we strongly recommend reaching out to Adam at CNY Sound.

We cannot say enough about how incredible Adam was, who made our wedding day an absolute dream come true! From the very start, he was attentive and engaged, working closely with us to curate the perfect playlist that captured our unique love story. His seamless transitions between songs had everyone on the dance floor from start to finish, and the energy he brought was infectious. He not only accommodated our special requests but also added their personal touch, making our reception an unforgettable party. His professionalism, charisma, and undeniable talent as a DJ left our guests raving about the music long after the wedding ended. If you want a DJ who will elevate your special day to a whole new level, look no further - they are the best in the business, and we couldn't be happier with their incredible performance. A heartfelt thank you for making our wedding night a five-star celebration!

We were exceptionally happy with Adam from CNY Sound! He is the BEST!!
Adam was such fantastic and easy to work with! Adam got us right away and we knew after our first conversation, that we wanted him as our DJ!
We spoke several times prior to our wedding day. We zoomed several times, met with him in person and exchanged several emails. His dedication to detail and ensuring everything was just how we wanted was comforting. Adam is professional, talented, friendly and fun! He had great suggestions and was open to all of our ideas and timed everything perfectly.
We had Adam DJ for our ceremony, the cocktail hour, and the reception. We decided to perform an “Evolution of Dance” for our first dance together. We gave Adam the songs we wanted and he put together the song ensemble perfectly!! We could not have been happier!

We can't say enough good things about our DJ/MC, Adam. We had a long engagement and hired him early on. He was extremely communicative throughout the entire engagement and met with us as many times as we needed to fully understand our vision, as music is extremely important to both of us. Adam was well organized, timely, flexible, experienced, and a total pleasure to work with. On the wedding day he did an immaculate job of reading the crowd and playing what they were responding to. He did not miss a beat, and even though we only had 40 guests, we had a packed dance floor all night.
Having been to several weddings recently, I can objectively say that Adam did a better job of smoothly mixing the music, balancing guest requests with what we wanted, and just overall setting the tone for the party than we've seen at any other wedding in recent memory.
Adam's skill as a DJ/MC is only matched by his genuine kindness and charisma. He went above and beyond when he overheard my young nephew talking about a problem he was having with his guitar, and took the time to have a conversation with my nephew about it and made some troubleshooting suggestions. He also stayed back at the end and helped us out with anything we needed. I'd hire Adam again for all my DJ needs, and I recommend you do too!

Adam was awesome! Very professional and made sure that we were comfortable before the day of the wedding. He knew everything to ask beforehand so that we didn't forget about anything and delivered on the day of the wedding as well. He was very flexible and our guests at our wedding had the best time dancing. Adam was willing to move locations during the wedding with no downtime on the music because weather had changed, and thanks to his helpfulness, the day went perfect. I would recommend Adam to anyone and everyone!

Adam was GREAT to work with!! From the moment my husband and I first spoke to him, we knew we were in good hands. He had the perfect balance of working with whatever ideas we had regarding music, announcements, etc., with giving suggestions on what he thought would work best during the ceremony and reception. He was extremely communicative, kept to his appointment times/calls, and truly kept our wedding day fun and lively with his great energy and stellar personality. I would recommend him over and over again - thank you CNY Sound!!

CNY Sounds brought the PARTY to the wedding! We had a phenomenal time at our wedding. Adam was very professional and met with us a few times before the event to walk through the itinerary and make sure that everything we wanted was covered and understood on his end. He came out to the venue to make sure that the set up I was planning was going to work (backyard wedding). Day of the event, Adam fit right in to our crowd. Everything went well for the ceremony, and through the announcements, even with a few last minute changes. Sound quality was great, and my biggest pet peeve is making sure you can understand someone talking in the mic, and he was AWESOME! Throughout the night, Adam was go with the flow and hit the changing music vibes all night long for an amazing ight of dancing and partying. Definitely recommend having Adam DJ for your wedding or event.

Adam was extremely thorough, thoughtful, and has a high attention to detail. He met with us several times in person as well as a few calls to make sure the day and music were structured just right. When the day came, it couldn't have gone smoother. He did a great job playing songs that got people out of their seats, and hosting fun games throughout the night to keep people engaged. Adam is a true professional, and I highly recommend him if you are looking for a DJ that will make your wedding unforgettable!

Adam was absolutely fantastic for our wedding!
He was flexible with times and very accommodating with the songs/music we wanted.
He was also available for the entire day of our event (instead of charging extra for anything more than a few hours like most DJs).
I highly recommend CNY Sound for anyone looking for a quality DJ/MC!

Adam was awesome through the entire planning process and the day of our wedding!! He provided all sound equipment for both our ceremony and reception, both of which went great, even with a last minute move of the ceremony fue to the weather. He was very professional and personable during our planning facetime calls, walked us through what we needed to choose while giving us suggestions, and was flexible with all of our specific song and genre requests. He was on point with all anouncements throughout the night. He fit our exact wedding vibe as requested both in outfit and personality! He kept the party going all night just as we requested, and made sure that all of our guests had a great time! Adam kept the dance floor full the whole night, which was exactly what we asked for!!!! He even went above and beyond by lining up our huge bridal party before the introductions and getting everyone together, which was not his job. We highly recomend, as would any of our guests!
We had a great experience working with him, and after speaking with many other friends who have also gotten married in the past 2 years, he is by far the best Wedding DJ around.

Adam did a fantastic job from start to finish! He was incredibly personable while also being professional. He did an excellent job with pre-wedding coordinating with us on everything from which songs to play and not play, his expected attire, and even what kind of personality to bring. On the day of the wedding he was very organized and prepared and rolled with the changes with ease. He met with us a few times prior to make sure everything was perfect. Adam answered every question we threw at him. I would highly recommend Adam to be your DJ and wouldn’t hesitate to book him again ourselves! Thank you so much Adam for being a part of our wedding day!

CNY sound was completely amazing. My wife and I got married on Aug. 6th. Our DJ was fun, imaginative, and still professional. He was very fair with pricing and made sure we would have a great time. He came early and stayed late. We were so appreciative for his hard work and dedication to his profession and to our big day. We gladly recommend this company to anyone and we intend on using them in the future.
