DJ Butters was the best DJ we could have ever asked for for our wedding! From the very beginning, his communication was amazing. Before the wedding, he made sure we had every song ...
we wanted and helped everything feel organized and stress-free.
He was budget-friendly while still providing an incredible experience. Our guests were raving all night about the music! I gave him a playlist, and he added songs that fit perfectly with our vibe and kept the dance floor packed all night long with amazing energy and party lights!
DJ Butters truly went above and beyond, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who knows how to read the crowd and make your event unforgettable.
DJ Butters rocked our wedding! He was so easy to work with and extremely helpful. He helped plan out our dances and speeches perfectly. Additionally, we weren't sure what kind of m...
usic we wanted for our cocktail hour/dinner, so we gave him a vibe and he matched it so well. We had created a playlist for the reception, which he followed, but being a professional, he also played different songs based on the vibes of the dance floor. He had people dancing all night! DJ Butters is also very respectful of his clients and would not let people request songs without our say so. I really appreciated this because sometimes things can go haywire with song requests. However, if you want to allow requests, he will accomodate for that as well. 10/10 recommend!
Joe was amazing for our 9/13 wedding. Our outline phone call was very specific which was super helpful because I had no idea where to start. A few days before the wedding we had a ...
check in call where he confirmed the songs and each version we picked out. He really knew how to keep the crowd on their feet. The dance floor was constantly flooded with people after dinner. Joe, thank you so much for contributing to the fun on our special day!
Joe was very responsive and made time to ensure he had the correct version of every single song! Everyone had a great time on the dance floor! Super easy to work with! Would hire a...

DJ Butters was great! He kept the energy up and people danced the night away. A few guests told us they had never been to a wedding where there was always people dancing. He was pr...
ofessional, kind, and perfect for our wedding.
Joe was great! He gave myself and my husband an outline of what music we would need to provide if anything. He explained the process so easily. On the day of the wedding he arrived...
at the venue ahead of time to make sure he had time to set up and get ready. He worked closely with our other vendors and our officiant to make sure that he was all good to go. During the wedding, he did great. I wasn't sure how long I wanted to dance with my parents and my husband his mom and Joe did great of discussing a sign to give him so he could fade out the music. It was awesome to have him help us navigate this. He worked so hard to make sure he said everyone's names right which is important because some DJ/MCs really mess this up and Joe was so earnest in wanting to get it right. I also LOVED how Joe enjoyed watching us and our guests having a great time he truly looked like he loved what he was doing which made it all the more enjoyable to work with him.
Jon, our DJ, for our big day on 5/2/25 was absolutely AMAZING! He was so easy to communicate with and truly brought our vision to life when it came to making our wedding feel like ...
a "huge party". The dance floor was packed all night! 10/10 recommend DJ Butters Entertainment, but moreso Jon.
Joe was able to DJ our wedding on 4-27-25 and we are so so happy he did! We read so many horror stories about people’s weddings and how the DJ completely ruined so many important s...
ongs. Our wedding couldn’t have been any more perfect. Joe was able to answer all my questions leading up to the wedding, helped me come up with my time line of songs with examples to follow and took so much stress away from us. Every single songs was played perfectly and every song we requested was played. We even rented the Photo Booth & it was perfect! Our guest really enjoyed the photos and I had a copy of every photo taken that night within a few days. We couldn’t be more pleased with his work and dedication. Also very affordable!! We are very grateful and pleased with how our wedding turned out !
Joe is a phenomenal DJ! Our meetings with him leading up to our wedding were comprehensive, focused, and he was incredibly personable from our first phone call to the end of our we...
dding night. We had a few changes the week of the wedding, and he handled them expertly. My (now) husband took on the task of picking out songs for the day, and everything we chose was played, he even threw in some extras that were perfectly placed. I've been to my fair share of weddings, and I can truly say I've never seen a dance floor packed all night like it was at our wedding. From the moment he opened up the dance floor to the last song, the majority of our guests were dancing all night long. He did a fabulous job reading the room, and we are truly so appreciative of his professionalism and ability to keep a party going! We had so many guests of all ages come up to us and complement the music. We cannot thank Joe enough for making our day all the better and we cannot recommend him enough!
I want to start off by saying DJ Jon was very nice, great at communicating and professional. After booking DJ Butters, we met with Jon on Zoom to go over details. He emailed us exa...
mples of music outlines for how we should organize songs we wanted played at our wedding. I am very organized and detail oriented, and spent several hours with my husband putting together our outline. Looking for and deciding on specific songs that we wanted played at our wedding. Having said that, DJ Jon played all of our ceremony songs, first dance song, etc., perfectly. He also did a great job with introductions, getting the crowd excited, etc.
However, for our reception, none of the songs we put on the outline were played. On our outline, we were so specific that we outlined songs we wanted played by decade so he could involve all age groups on the dance floor, with many options of songs chosen for each decade. We even included a “late night” section to play once the older crowd left. Now I do have to say, Jon did check in with us multiple times throughout the night asking if everything was going ok, which I appreciated, and of course, looking back, I probably should have spoken up at the time, but I was living in the moment and enjoying my wedding night. After reflecting on it, it just feels as though a “basic wedding playlist” of songs was played during our reception. It was fine, all our guests were dancing and having and good time and I’m sure DJ Jon was just “reading the room” and going with it, but they still were not the songs my husband and I spent a lot of time choosing together. I just feel like why did we waste so much time and energy creating an outline if the songs we wanted weren’t going to be played throughout the night? Maybe the outline is just used for suggestions but I didn’t see it that way. Again, we really liked DJ Jon, but just were not exactly satisfied with that part of it.
DJ Butters did an incredible job as our wedding DJ & Emcee. We highly recommend him. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and we had several meetings wit...
h him before. At the wedding, he kept the dance floor going all night, and chose great songs that our guests loved. Great experience!
DJ Butters was so efficient before the wedding setting up multiple meetings with us and reviewing all the music to make sure it was exactly what we wanted. Our wedding day went so ...
smoothly. We also opted for the 360 camera which was a hit, everyone got a video and they were all sent to me the next day.
Dj Joe was great! He was very personable and he kept the party going all night! I would highly recommend him for any event! He looked out for our best interest all night! I also re...

Joe and his team made our day so special. He was very accommodating to our requests for unique songs as well as classic wedding dance music. Joe is responsive, personable, and fun....
We were so lucky to have such a flexible DJ who listened to our specific wants and requests. So many of our guests raved about the music choices and were able to hear the music that got them on the dance floor.
Joe was great. His attention to detail and ability to keep the wedding on track was a huge bonus. Music was great and the dance floor was the place to be. We had a great experience...

Joe was fabulous to work with and was answering all of our questions since day 1. He was super patient with us due to covid delaying us for a year but once everything was officiall...
y set he was right there with us. He called us a couple days before the wedding to go over the important songs and make sure he had the exact ones that we wanted. He read the crowd well and there was always people on the dance floor. Best thing I liked is he played the songs through just how it is…didn’t try to remix it into another song. We also used their Photobooth services. We provided them with a book and they glued all the stripes to the pages for us. Thank you for everything Joe!!
Joe was very prompt to respond to us and answer our questions from day one! The one thing I wanted was to make sure people were constantly dancing at our wedding, and he delivered!...
They provided sound for our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and everything in between! We also chose to add on uplighting which made our reception even more fun and kept people dancing. Highly recommend!

h that he offered as an additional service and I was so impressed! He sent us a flash drive with all of the photos from the photo booth and it was the best investment we made!
We had such a good time at our reception with DJ Butters running the show. Everything went smoothly and the music was so good! You could tell that he was watching the room to see w...
hat kind of music was energizing people and adjusting to match that. We were worried since we downsized our wedding that people wouldn’t dance but the dance floor was never empty. I definitely recommend hiring DJ Butters.
I was a bridesmaid in my friends wedding this past weekend and the DJ was great. He played the music the couple requested and was really nice and friendly. He encouraged people to ...
get out on the dance floor. 10/10 recommend
DJ Jon Tessman did a fantastic job with our wedding! Before the wedding, he was very helpful in planning out the stages of the day/night and making sure we had every event and song...
in the right place. He showed up very well-dressed, and arrived early which was a great stress-reliever.
Jon handled all of the audio for our beach ceremony at Lighthouse Point Park. Before the ceremony he had light instrumental music playing for the guests via hidden speakers. During the ceremony he played our chosen processional/recessional music right on time, and made sure there was a mic at the front for the officiant.
During the reception, he made sure the music was appropriate for each moment and mood. He read the room well and kept so many people on the dance floor the entire night. We had a carousel at our venue, and whenever we would ride it he would have another horse-themed song up his sleeve - hilarious!
He was so friendly we would have wanted him at our wedding even if he wasn’t providing the tunes. Jon had the kind of personality you want in a DJ: fun, energetic, and approachable. We cannot recommend him more highly.
I would recommend DJ Butters Entertainment to EVERYONE! Joe was our DJ and MC. He was very professional and thorough. He makes sure to have all the right versions of your songs bef...
ore the wedding and goes over all the details. He was able to keep up with all the different things we did for our wedding without hesitation. We had an anniversary dance, and shoe game, no garter/bouquet toss and changed up the parent dances. He didn't miss a beat! He was even great with our venue who was... less cooperative (to put it nicely). He also provided laser lights for the dance floor. Our wedding would not have been as amazing as it was if we had anyone else! He and our other kickass vendors made the night! His company does SO MUCH MORE so definitely check it out!
Joe (DJ Butters) was a pleasure to work with and have to DJ our wedding. He was professional, polite and thorough. He paid attention to little details and thought of things I hadn'...
t considered. All the music he played was exactly what we wanted and he kept the dance floor lively until the end of the night. His prices are extremely reasonable. Sound system and some lighting were included. I would highly recommend Joe to anyone getting married or having a big party. Extra special shoutout to Joe for having us be his first Jewish wedding and picking everything up quickly and easily. Just shows how wonderful and adaptable he is.
DJ Butters was great! We booked him many months before our wedding. He offered the best pricing around and included an MC and uplighting into the package without an extra charge. H...
e worked with us to build our entire playlist for our wedding reception because we are metalheads and wanted some more nontraditional music. His MC was fantastic with the games and other events that took place throughout the night. Prior to the reception, we met with Joseph twice and he was the most down to earth, easy to talk to guy. We were super impressed and satisfied with the services we received and would recommend him to others in the future! Thanks Joseph!
