We hired DanceJock Productions for our wedding and they were absolutely incredible! Leading up to the wedding we were able to discuss with DanceJock Productions exactly what we wan...
ted at our wedding, including specific songs, music types, the timeline for the night, and MC personality- and they nailed it. MC Scott and DJ Ross did exactly what we requested. They were absolutely perfect. They played all the songs we asked and read the room perfectly- everyone was up and dancing the entire night. We give DanceJock Productions our highest recommendation. They were professional, a great value, and they delivered beyond our expectations.
Scott and his team were great on our wedding day. They really got everyone on the dance floor the entire night. The percussionist was an amazing add on too, everyone complimented u...
s on the music. Highly recommend.
Throughout the entire process of planning our wedding, the music and entertainment aspects were always my biggest concern. As soon as we met Frankie Vega and the team over at Dance...
jock Productions, all of that worry went away. Frankie made the entire process as easy as can be and when it came to the actual wedding day, this was no different. We didn't have to worry about our guests being engaged and out on the dance floor because Frankie made sure that happened by knowing how to read the room and keep playing the music that the crowd reacted to best. I would highly recommend Dancejock Productions to all of the couples who were in the same boat as us. Dancejock makes your entertainment their top priority.
Dance Jock Productions provided DJ, MC (DJ Niceness and MC Frankie Vega), musicians for the wedding ceremony, and mirror photo booth for my daughter's
wedding in CT on August 23, ...
2019. My daughter and I worked closely with Frankie Vega and the overall process was very smooth and pleasant, that is until after wedding. The music was amazing and our guests had a great time! For our mirror photo booth Frankie agreed to provide a gold sequin backdrop. During the reception I realized that the gold sequin backdrop we agreed on was not up for the mirror photo booth (I was never informed why it was not put up), and I also noticed that all the pictures were photo bombed due to placement of the mirror booth. The mirror booth was placed in a corner. The lighting was very poor resulting in dark pictures and you can see guests waiting their turn in all the pictures. HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!! I contacted Frankie Vega via email twice with no response and finally decided to call him. My telephone conversation with Frankie was unpleasant. Frankie was rude, took no ownership for the decision HE made, and argued with me about the pictures, telling me he disagreed and felt the pictures were fine. He had the audacity to tell me that I should have said something to him the day of the wedding. Really!! How insensitive and not to mention irresponsible. We had a plan in place and he decided to change it on the wedding day without discussing it with me. As the mother of the bride, I was making sure my daughter and son in law were enjoying their day and checking in with our guests. It was not my responsibility to have to worry about a mirror photo booth I hired DJP to manage. The mirror photo booth was set up poorly and it was clear that DJP did not know how to properly operate a mirror photo booth; resulting in our guests receiving terrible and poor quality pictures. DJP has very poor customer service ethics, no integrity, and have handled my situation terribly! They are also not a part of the Better Business Bureau. BEWARE!
DanceJock was hands down the best part of our wedding! Not only did Frankie take care of us but he brought us a phenomenal DJ and a kick ass Drummer!!! The music was rocking all ni...
ght and all our guest danced the night away!! Our dance floor was never empty!!! I had guest texting me the next day raving about my dj!! How the music was such a good mix and the dummer was extremely talented!!! We had people say they haven’t enjoyed a wedding like that in a while!! Frankie was a dream to work with and he checked in with us throughout the night asking if we wanted different music Or anything special. He was on his game and brought our wedding night to life!! Dont think twice!!! Book with DanceJock!!! You will not regret it!!!!!
Where do I even start ! Frankie is amazing and made this process so enjoyable and easy for my husband and I when we were planning our wedding ! Frankie went above and beyond to mak...
e sure our day went smooth and amazing ! I would recommend them for any event ! Not only did we have an amazing wedding but our music made it even better thank to Frankie and his team at dance jock productions!!
Words could never truly capture the exceptional talent, professionalism, and energy that DanceJock Productions provided us on our Wedding Day. Scott Neglia helped us create the wed...
ding of our dreams. He provided us with some of the most talented musicians you can find on Long Island. We had a cellist and violinists perform during our ceremony, an energic and fun two-piece calypso band play during our cocktail hour, and hands down the best MC (Scott Neglia), DJ, Saxophonist, and Percussionist play throughout our reception. The dance floor was packed throughout the night. Our guests still call to tell us how our wedding was such a blast and the entertainment was unparalleled. I would highly recommend DanceJock. They made our wedding a day we will never forget and forever cherish.
We knew when we first met Frankie that we were going to choose Dancejock as our DJ. It was definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day . As our MC he was amazi...
ng along with our DJ. We had the saxophone player that played along with the DJ and he was so much fun. People came up to us about how amazing he was all day! They kept everyone on the dance floor for the whole wedding and just exceeded all of our expectations!
Dancejock was AMAZING! I worked with Frankie throughout the process and he was a pleasure and so easy to work with! He was awesome! They had everything I wanted and needed: uplight...
ing, photobooth, musicians for our ceremony and a percussionist. The musicians did a great job during the ceremony! The uplighting was beautiful. It gave that romantic look we were looking for. The photobooth was so much fun! The percussionist was awesome! People raced about how much fun it was and how amazing he was. We got so many compliments on him and how they were so impressed how he was up there the whole night. Frankie was amazing as MC. He did everything perfect and exactly how we wanted. My DJ rocked it though!!!! He was awesome!!! We can’t say enough about him! He played every genre from every decade and that is exactly what I asked for. I even had a few requests and they played them! My dance floor was packed the entire night!! People are still telling me how awesome the DJ was and how they haven’t danced that much in so long! You know it’s a good wedding when the dance floor is packed the whole night! I can’t thank you enough for making our day perfect!!! Music was very important to us and they nailed it!!! Thank you so much again!!
Dancejock was incredible throughout the entire planning process and at the wedding! Frankie was great to work with and we were so happy he MCd our party! All of our guests said the...
y couldnt believe how amazing the DJ was and that they actually danced the ENTIRE time. We also upgraded to have a saxophone player and drummer and they were AMAZING!! I would recommend this company to anyone they were amazing! So many of our friends took their cards because they are now interested in using them as well!
Frankie and the Dancejock team are the best! From our very first meeting, he made us feel at ease and described what to expect for our wedding, his role as our MC, and how he would...
collaborate with our officiant and maitre d' to coordinate the music and the whole flow of the day. My husband and I are both reserved and don't like being the center of attention, which Frankie picked up on right away. We could really tell that he made an effort to get to know us and worked hard to make sure we were comfortable and enjoyed our wedding. He and our DJ Mr NiceNess also did a great job of playing the genres of music we love and accommodated specific song requests that our guests wanted to hear. Awesome music, great energy, our guests were on the dance floor all night long!
Frankie, MaryAnn, Jim and the team at Dancejock as well as Magic Moments made my dreams come true! They were absolutely amazing to work with and accommodated our every need. The id...
ea of using one company for our DJ, Emcee, photography and videography was truly such a help and relief- the night and day was absolutely a memory we will have forever!
AMAZING!!! Frankie and Scott are an incredible team. When I first met with Frankie, I knew immediately that they were going to have us partying all night. However, they exceeded my...
expectations. Scott was our MC, DJ Loki was our DJ, we also had percussionist, electric violinist and a saxophonist and they all killed it. My family and friends were raving about them all night long. Our saxophonist was out of this world and made such a fun addition to the party.
Dancejock put on an unbelievable party for our wedding on October 14, 2018. The music had everyone on the dance floor all night, and once the party ended our guests were chanting f...
or "one more song" to keep the party going. Scott, our MC Frankie and the entire team executed the day flawlessly. We were told by many guests it was the best wedding they ever attended, and that is not just a compliment to us but to Dancejock! I highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan an unforgettable wedding!
Frankie is the best there is! He is a true professional. His personality in the office is the same as his personality on your wedding day! He’s warm, outgoing, funny and knows exac...
tly how to keep the party going! I am so happy with our decision to use DanceJock. The lighting was stunning and our photo montages added such a special touch to our dances. We didn’t have a ton of musical direction for our DJ which I know can be frustrating but he just did his thing and we couldn’t have been happier. The dance floor was full the entire night! Highly recommend Frankie and his whole team!
Frankie was such an amazing recommendation from our wedding planner, I could not have been more happy with how the night went. He did exactly what we asked for and more, I decided ...
to change something last minute during the wedding and he accommodated on the spot! He was an absolute pleasure to work with! He was very organized and was very on top of the details we had asked during our meeting. We love you Frankie! Thanks for making our wedding so special!!
I can’t ever say enough wonderful things about DanceJock! Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives because of the awesome party they threw. I never left the dance floor and ...
neither did our guests. Even grandmother danced all night! Frankie sat with us to get our input on what we wanted and the result couldn’t have been more perfect. Our guests are still talking about what an amazing party it was! We added the video disc jockey package to our wedding and it brought all the happy tears during our big entrance and our dances with our parents. Frankie was incredible!
We were so happy to have had DanceJock DJ our wedding last month at the Harbor Club. The whole booking process and finalization was very smooth and not stressful at all. Frankie an...
d Nester are very personable and have only one goal in mind, making your event a night to remember. From the ceremony to the cocktail hour and on to the reception, thank you for being so instrumental in making our wedding one of the best nights of our life!
Dancejock did an amazing job at my wedding!!!The whole night guests were coming up to us saying how good the music was. Frankie did an incredible job as the MC, and kept touching b...
ase with us to ensure everything was going well. The photo booth was a huge hit too, and the guests loved being able to take big group photos and get multiple copies. The DJ was able to read the crowd and knew exactly the music to play at the right time. Everyone keeps raving about how great the music was, and they didn't want to stop dancing at the end of the night! The videographer Tim also did a wonderful job at getting great shots throughout the day. I forgot sometimes that he was there because he blended in with the crowd, without making it obvious that he was videoing the whole time. Thank you again to everyone at DanceJock Productions for making our wedding day a memorable one!
Dancejock does it again! I’ve had the pleasure of attending a number of events that Dancejock did but this time it was my turn to play event host. When planning my wedding this was...
a no brainer for me. Honestly, I did not even look elsewhere. DJ Nestor and MC Frankie are a dream team combination and absolutely killed it at our wedding. Nestor read the crowd and worked in everything on our play list when it made sense. I still have guests raving about how much fun they had dancing a week later. Frankie seemlessly coordinated with the maitre d’ and the order of events/ceremonies went off without a hitch. Drummer, violinist and photo booth all came recommended and they did not disappoint. These guys really are the best in the biz!
From the moment we met with Frankie and Scott at Dancejock, we knew that we had finally found a team that we wanted to work with. They were personable, professional, honest and st...
raightforward; not pushy or high pressure at all (like some of the other DJ’s that we had met with and were turned off by). It was so convenient to find a top-notch company that was able to handle so many of our specific, custom needs for our wedding.
Through Dancejock, we were able to book our harpist for the ceremony (Sylvia, who played our requested songs beautifully) and our percussionist (Justin - who was AWESOME and took the party to the next level) for the reception. We were able to rent a state-of-the-art photo booth that instantly printed unlimited pictures for our guests. Scott had our step and repeat made with our custom monograms for the backdrop, which came out FANTASTIC! Everyone was lining up for pictures……and the best part was that we were provided with copies of all of them! Through CAD drawings made of the venue, Scott virtually designed an beautiful and practical lounge area that we were able to preview before committing to. We were so glad to have moved forward with this, as it was an AMAZING touch that our guests not only utilized, but also admired.
To go along with our custom monogram theme, Scott had a vinyl decal made for the front of the DJ booth and had our monogram playing on the side screens. He also was able to integrate our custom design into the Gobo light that was projected onto the dance floor that everyone was on – ALL NIGHT LONG thanks to then PHENOMENAL music!
Our guests have not stopped raving about all of the amazing extras that we were able to provide them with through Dancejock. A HUGE thanks to the team for making our day as fun, memorable and special as it was! We will certainly be calling and recommending Dancejock for any and all upcoming needs that arise.
My husband and I just got married on October 8th and a family member suggested Dancejock to us and it was one of the best pieces of advice we got through the whole wedding process!...
Frankie Vega and his team were amazing from start to finish and extremely accommodating with our budget and schedules to get everything sorted out for the big day! When the day arrived, we couldn't have asked for a better emcee or DJ - and the photographer they had with them was top notch! We even booked a photobooth with them and the entire night, they made sure that we were happy with the music selection, the scheduling, they even organized an album for us with all the photobooth images and handed us a USB of all the photos they had taken at the end of the night so my hubby and I could look at all the great shots as soon as we were able. We've received so many compliments about the music selections and just how FUN everything was the entire night. We couldn't have asked for better service, better packages, and better people to help us along through this whole process. If you're looking for a DJ - seriously consider Dancejock and you will not be disappointed with the service and attention you received from the moment you sign a contract to the day of the wedding. Any big party we have in the future, or any couple we know that's getting married - we're keeping these guys in mind.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars for Dancejock!! They were incredible from the moment I stepped into their offices. As someone who is a total control freak, Scott and Frankie...
made me feel 100% at ease and I felt I could trust them completely with taking care of all of the entertainment needs for my wedding. As soon as we sat with Frankie at our first meeting, we knew we HAD to have him as our MC. He was personable, professional, and had a great energy. After that first meeting, things only got better. They were in contact with me every step of the way because of them my wedding was more than I ever imagined it could be.
Through Dancejock, we also booked our live musicians for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and I was blown away by every single one of them. The harpist Sylvia played at our ceremony and played every song I wanted from Elvis Presley to Beauty and the Beast beautifully. Our cocktail singer and guitarist Michael was amazing as well! The violinist, Alex, played during dinner and the entire reception and he was AMAZING! (A friend even asked him to play the Game of Thrones theme song and he did it perfectly and the entire room went wild!) Last, the drummer Justin- I can not say enough amazing things about him. He brought the party to a whole new level. He was on the dance floor with our guests adding so much energy and fun the entire night! HIGHLY RECOMMEND ALL OF THEM!!
During the reception we had lighting that was absolutely crazy. They even had it coming down from the catwalk above our dance floor, plus a Co2 cannon that shot cool air over the top of the dance floor which was a huge hit. They customized the fronts of the DJ booths with a beautiful wedding backdrop, our initials, and our pictures which was such a beautiful touch that made it even more personalized. We also got their photo booth which everyone loved when they needed a break from dancing.
One of my favorite things we got from Dancejock though, was the 16x9 foot video wall. IT WAS UNREAL! The quality was incredible. We played our montage on it, and throughout the night zaps and professional shots from our photographer were displayed on it. It also showed father/daughter & mother/son photos during the parent danced which I loved. They said this wall was pretty new and I was the first wedding they would be using it at and it was SO WORTH IT.
I am still getting phone calls asking me “Who was the guy on the mic?!”. I can’t say enough how INCREDIBLE our MC Frankie was. Like I said, he was a pleasure to work with leading up to the wedding, but that day he was better than we even imagined. All of our guests are raving about his professionalism saying “he wasn’t your typical annoying MC”. He had our entire night organized and running smoothly. Our DJ was Loki, & he was also AMAZING. He played everything we requested from todays hits, to country, to a set of polish music for my husband’s family. He read the crowd so well & knew exactly what to play & when to play it to keep our dance floor full the entire night.
Overall, I can’t praise Dancejock enough for making my wedding better than my dreams. I will forever use and recommend this company for ANY event because of their professionalism, attention to detail, and talented crew. My friends & family are telling me it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and that makes me feel so grateful for Dancejock were the ones who made it happen.
I was eager to work with Dance Jock again after they had provided the entertainment for my Bar Mitzvah in 1997. When I mentioned this to Scott Neglia on our introductory visit, he ...
promptly told me that I was the 109th person for whom he’d have done both a bar/bat mitzvah and wedding. From that moment, I could see how much passion he had for what he did, and I knew that would be in great hands for our wedding. And we truly were. Scott gave us a very detailed breakdown on the day we met with him for the first time of how he envisioned our reception would go, from our introduction to the Hora to the rest of the party. A year later when the wedding took place, it went down almost word for word of how he had described us. Scott handled us personally and he did a great job of providing just the right music for the party, you could tell he knows how to read a room. The video packages that were put together from their video department for our introduction and our respective dances with the parent were extremely moving and had people very emotional. The event was flawless and I have to hand it to Scott for knowing exactly what to do and when to do it. I highly recommend Scott and Dance Jock for any of your events.
Dancejock Productions is truly what made our day so special. Our guests have not stopped raving about the entertainment at our July 15th wedding. Scott and his team has been with o...
ur family through our bar and bat mitzvahs. It was incredible to use them for our wedding years later and know that we had a team that cared so much about making our day amazing. The entertainment they provided with both the DJ element and the live instruments kept the party going and the guests up and dancing. They played an amazing range of music the appealed to every guest, from oldies, rock, current pop and a requested 90’s block, it was such a fun mix that everybody loved!
Scott was available to us for meetings and questions all along the way. We used many of the instrument pieces that Dancejock offers, such as the string instruments for our ceremony, live instruments for the party, including an incredible electric violinist. They were an incredible touch and everyone loved them!
My husband and I had some very specific and technical needs. We played multiple video clips throughout the evening, featured nostalgic photos on screens, used lighting equipment, created a list of special “must play” songs and more. Scott utilized the screens, music and every request we had made beautifully. Featuring these memories was one of the most important pieces of this day to us and Scott made each part of that come true. It took a lot of contact and planning beforehand and Scott was available and supportive every step of the way.
Another important part of the day was that my husband wanted to play a song with his high school band. He and Scott arranged this, again requiring a lot of personal contact and planning. Again, Scott and the team were there for us every step of the way. Scott provided the necessary audio equipment, helped the band set up the transition so that there was not a moment of silence in the party… it was truly incredible and we could never have done it without him. I am so so thankful to Dancejock for all of their hard work and for all of the ways that they made this day such a memorable one. I highly recommend them to anyone who is planning a wedding, bar-mitzvah or any party!
Dancejock did a great job for my wedding! I honestly cant say enough about the whole experience. So easy to work with and they know exactly what they are doing. They went above a...
nd beyond my expectations and made the whole day/night easy and fun. They did exactly what I wanted and kept everyone dancing the whole night. I had so many people comment how great the music and MC were and even had the owner of the venue ask who they were because she was so impressed with Dancejock. I feel the whole vibe of a wedding depends on the music and MC, and most people are worried about this, but with Dancejock, you have nothing to worry about. So professional and make the entire experience a pleasure. I would 100% recommend Dancejock to anyone and everyone!!
Scott and his team are the best!!! We got married on Saturday 7/8 and so many of our guests came up to us, saying how phenomenal our DJ was. From our entrance to the photo booth, t...
o the last song of the night, everything was awesome!!!!
My husband and I used Dancejock for our wedding in November and we LOVED every second of it. They kept our guests dancing the night away and constantly entertained. We also used th...
e Video company, Band, and Singer that Dancejock offers. Each one of them blew our guests away and were so nice. All of the songs that we wanted were played and the father/daughter, mother/daughter, mother/son dances went amazing. Scott always returned my e-mails in a timely manner and always had good advice and suggestions. Simply put, I couldn't have asked for a better DJ company to do our wedding. We would highly recommend Dancejock.
We were referred to Dance Jock by my cousin, who used them for her wedding 8 years ago. All my husband and I wanted for our wedding was to have the dance floor filled and see our g...
uests truly enjoying themselves. Dance Jock DELIVERED!!! They did everything and more to ensure that we and our guests had the time of our lives =) Frankie, our MC, and Chris, our DJ, made our night. They were truly amazing, and stepped up to ensure that the timeline of the night went smooth. We also had up-lighting from them, which looked beautiful and truly accented the room! We worked closely with Frankie, who was professional and super down to earth from day one! He responded to my emails and/or calls immediately, was very flexible when we wanted to change a few things last minute, and even went to our venue after meeting us for the first time to see the set up and have the knowledge to talk to us about the location. I will recommend them forever!
We were absolutely thrilled with Dancejock at our wedding. George kept everyone up on their feet and dancing all night, including us! We were so happy to see the dance floor jam pa...
cked at all times. The variety of music that was played throughout the night was great and everyone had a blast! We also used them for percussionist and saxaphone which was an awesome touch. We could not have asked for anything better!!!
From our first meeting with Frankie, we knew we had to have DanceJock at our wedding! Frankie was professional and fun to work with! He respected our budget and gave us the best re...
commendations about how to bring the best experience to our wedding guests. We had a very talented string duo and pianist that beautifully set the mood at the ceremony. Frankie was our MC and was very knowledgeable from his years of experience on how to get our guests involved on the dance floor and give direction to all other events throughout the night. The DJ, DJ Nester (NiceNess) was on point and had the music going all night. He was able to read the crowd to keep the party going and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how much they danced. We also had an Electric Violinist and Percussionist who both brought the music experience to the next level. The harmony between the musicians and DJ Nester was unbelievable and would highly recommend hiring Dancejock Productions to anyone who wants to have the best music experience at their wedding!
One word...AMAZING!!! I first heard of Dance Jock when my cousin got married in 2011. They have been my favorite DJ company to date!! By far the best! Scott is awesome, friendly a...
nd professional! From contacting him to meeting with him to answering every single question we had, he was phenomenal! Best MC ever!! He is enthusiastic, gets the party going, and really pays attention to what you want! His experience truly shows! Our guests were raving about the DJ services! We had the steel drummer for cocktail hour, who was so talented! He added a great feel to the wedding and everyone loved him. We also had a percussionist for the reception along with the DJ. We both are so happy we added him in the mix. So talented and he really added something special to every song that was played! The DJ we had was also phenomenal! He kept the party going all night! Our guests only left the dance floor for food! He knew when to play the whole song and when to mix it up! It was the perfect combo of fast and slow songs! Thank you also for helping me create my special mix for my father/daughter dance! It was so great and really surprised the guests when we went from a slow song into a fast mix then back to the slow song! We also loved that you have someone taking photos and posting them on the screens! Loved being able to have the montage and party pictures as well as on the spot editing of a video preview for our guests! It was awesome and leaving the wedding with pictures in hand, well you can't beat that! On top of that our videographer was great! He was friendly and attentive and so far we love the raw footage! Can't wait to see the edited version! One added bonus was the drone!!! If you can get the drone through Scott then do it! I'm so happy he offered it to us! Overall, we had a blast! I can go on and on about how great Scott and his team are! Thank you for helping us make our wedding the best day ever!!
I utilized Dancejock Productions for my wedding on June 26, 2015. They were absolutely amazing! Scott (our emcee) was on point for every aspect of the wedding. From the simple thin...
gs like correct name pronunciation to more intricate items such as last minute rearrangements requested by myself – all was handled with ease and grace. No task or request was too much for Dancejock to handle. I would recommend them for any wedding or special event. They are great!
We planned our wedding in 6 weeks and Dancejock was able to accommodate us without a problem. We didn't have many requests, but Scott was open to fulfill anything we asked. It was...
a small (for Long Island) wedding of about 80 people and probably less than half of our guests were dancers, but Dancejock was able to make it a party. Whether on the dance floor or seated having conversations, everyone enjoyed! Very professional service and easy to work with. Great job all around.
The saying is true, good music = good wedding. Dance Jock did an amazing job at my wedding and everyone is still raving about how good the music was. Rick was our DJ, he was real...
ly great and funny. He was a pleasure to work with the entire time. There were a few specific songs I wanted played at my ceremony, and they were amazing about finding them. We also had the drums and they were so much fun (totally worth the $), they added so much excitement. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a wedding DJ. I found that you get so much more for your money with DanceJock then another DJ company.
My husband and I are not really dancing types, so when we were looking into DJs for our wedding, we really didn't know where to begin. After searching based on location and rating,...
we came across DanceJock... what a name, are we sure this is what we want? Dancing Jocks? That's so not us! We don't even really dance! Well, had to find someone, so I called and spoke to Frankie, and he really set my mind at ease. He "got" that we weren't techno, Z100, club, pop types, but also that what we would normally listen to would definitely not be considered the best party or event music, and that we were looking for a more down to earth, old time rockin affair that everyone would enjoy and move along to. He assured us that they would be able to help us create a list of songs for the night that would both satisfy us and our guests. Pfew! We booked and spoke with Scott a few weeks before the big event, who again took the time to understand what we were looking for and go over special song selections that we had picked out (and even surprisingly improve upon a few of them!). I'm glad we were able to make him laugh, and he definitely got the kind of ecclectic, funny yet special vibe we were going for. Everything was spot on day of, and we couldn't be happier. Would definitely recommend them and use them again.
Dancejock productions did a fabulous job at my wedding. Scott Neglia, the owner was an absolute pleasure to work with. He made the entire process of choosing a DJ, photographer, an...
d videographer, SO easy. This was the ONLY company I even looked at and booked the services the same day. Everything was perfect! My MC, was Frankie Vega. He was AWESOME! I can't thank him enough for the fabulous job that he did. I was originally supposed to have Scott as my MC, so I was a little nervous, not knowing how Frankie would be. I have to say that he was phenomenal! He got the crowd dancing, kept the energy up, and even made sure my last minute requests were met! He truly made my wedding a day to remember. I HIGHLY recommend Dancejock productions for ALL of your entertainment needs.
as an update: i just received a call from Scott. he was furious i did not give him a 5 out of 5. he did not apologize or take responsibility for anything, but instead claimed what ...
i wrote was untrue. not exactly excellent customer service.
i guess i should start with the fact the the DJ kept some of our guests dancing and the guests seemed to enjoy the musical selection. and he avoided all songs on our do not play list. so hopefully nobody else noticed the major problems i had. that being said, i was EXTREMELY disappointed with our emcee, Scott.
(1) 2 weeks before the wedding we had our finals meeting. i only requested 1 specific song be played during our reception (i really wasn't that demanding), dedicated to my older uncle and explained this to Scott. he didn't have it played until the very end of the night, after the cake cutting, when my uncle was literally saying good bye. he barely heard the dedication.
(2) my husband(!) had to remind the emcee we asked for parent dances. scott didn't have us do the father-daughter dance or mother-son dances until after the cake cutting. my father had to actually ask me if he was going to get a chance to dance with me! parent dances are NOT supposed to be at the end of the affair after guests have already started leaving since the cake was already cut and served.
(3) scott knew very well it was an interfaith wedding. he even confirmed with us at the start of the ceremony that we were going to dance the horah. yet, somehow, scott decided it was a good idea to play "going to the chapel" during the cake cutting, even though i had specified which song to play. when i made it clear to him that was unacceptable, he tried to downplay his mistake and actually argued with me that it was not a big deal.
we hired ceremony musicians (cellist & vionlinst - soundscapes) through dancejock. they were excellent. the cellist, jason, was super helpful selecting songs for the processional & recessional. and they sounded great!
It's been just a few days since my wedding, and thanks to DanceJock, I have been able to take home with me on the day of my wedding, a short video, a montage of pictures from when ...
I grew up and from when my fiance grew up along with over 300+ pictures from the night. Having pictures and a video right after your wedding means everything, when you try to remember all that happened, it's hard as a bride, and these photos and video helped to capture such precious, crazy and memorable moments. Scott was our MC and he was amazing. He truly brought to life everything we had spoken about, and did it with class - I also had Jon the percussionist, and everyone was raving about him all night long! The live musicians with the DJ truly help. Our DJ was fantastic - he played all types of music to entertain all generations at the wedding - and everyone was on the dance floor all night. We will be receiving a full version of the video soon, and DanceJock productions lives up to everything they say they will do - they are focused on making it a night to remember - and they did! - I give them 5 stars for making my wedding one that everyone keeps talking about - :) -
These guys are fantastic! We originally were booked with another DJ and they royally screwed up and we had to cancel and find another DJ. We were a little apprehensive about findi...
ng another DJ because of what had gone through already. We met with Scott and I knew right away that the other djs screw up was the best thing that could have happened. Scott is AMAZING! Professional and on point. He promised us the moon and the stars, and he gave us the moon and the stars. The party was perfect. We had very specific ceremony and cocktail music requests and they met every single one. They had the dance floor packed all night and Im still getting compliments on how much fun the DJ was. If you want a rocking party, DanceJock is highly recommended!
My husband and I were originally booked with another popular DJ company, this company basically screwed up 3 months before our wedding and we needed to find a new DJ ASAP...my brot...
her connected us with Scott and we went in immediately to meet with him. He really took care of us and assured us he would give us the wedding of our dreams. We booked the same day and were given Rick as our MC and Nester as our DJ. We were so excited to work with them. Our final meeting with Rick was a breeze and we were ready and knew that everything worked out the way it should have. Fast forward to the day of the white set up and lighting was amazing...our ceremony music and cocktail hour music worked perfectly and they really fulfilled everything we asked for. Nester was absolutely insaneeeeee!! loved him! We're still getting compliments on the music, people have actually asked us "can we get a copy of that mix he did?" haha. Rick was a pleasure to have around us on our wedding day, he kept coming over to us to make sure everything was to our liking. We have not a bad thing to say about Dancejock, they are a class act!!! We are actually happy things went bad with that previous company because it landed us with a much better, more professional company that did the job perfect! Thank you to Scott, Rick & Nester!
Dance jock was amazing. They had my guests on the dancefloor all night. We also had the percussionist that got everyone involved. The Dj knew exactly how to read the crowd and p...

e music. We had a singer from Dance Jock sing in between the DJ in the beginning of the reception when the different courses of food came out, and it gave the reception such a nice touch of class and elegance. We also had the video montages through Dance Jock which added a personal and emotional touch to the beginning of our reception when we walked in which was on the plasma t.v.'s. Afterwards on the plasma t.v.'s, Dance Jock had one of their technicians walking around taking digital shots of our guests on the dance floor, which went onto the t.v. screens, so people could see themselves, which they loved! After the wedding I ordered the magic moments video which had our video montage and all of the digital shots set to a music background. It is great to have aside from your wedding video, because it captures a lot of candid moments with all of your guests having fun along with the bride and groom. The Magic Moments video is such a wonderful memeory to have, I would recommend it to everyone. Dance Jock is the best D.J. on Long Island in my opinion, and we've been to 50+ weddings on Long Island and have experience many different DJs/Bands, and this company has it down to a science. They are awesome!!!!
I loved the extras they threw out at us:The 3 flat screen TV's that I never heard of being offered-The extra guy that took 250 photos that were shown on the flat screen TV as they ...
were taken. They showed alot of respect to my husband being overseas fighting in the war.;ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!
DanceJocks offers a large variety of entertainment to make your wedding unique. We had a steel band during the cocktail hour and our guest enjoyed the upbeat sounds. During the r...
eception, we had a sing Rich that people could not believe he was really singing! He was the biggest hit of the day beside the bride! They were very professional and classy. I loved the fact that they did not turn my wedding into a sweet 16. They know the difference.;The only problem was the song we chose to walk in to was not played. I am not sure what happened since I did not ask, but my husband was disappointed since he picked it!
