DJ David was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding! From early in the process he got to know us and our needs for the day, and made so many helpful suggestions. We had a Hindu wedding and he took on planning for multiple parts of the day, including the Baraat or procession, ceremony music, choreographed dances, cocktail hour background music, and, of course, an unforgettable dance floor experience. He curated an amazing blend of English and Bollywood music based on our preferences perfectly captured the vibe we were looking for, the transitions were amazing and he did a great job of seamlessly blending both cultures. He really took the time to listen to us. He juggled multiple setups in the venue really well. His MCing and attention to detail was top-notch, making the entire day flow effortlessly. The energy on the dance floor was unmatched, and our guests had the best time. We highly recommend him for any wedding or event!

his new chapter together!
David was excellent through the entire process. My husband and I got married at the end of Sept 2024, and we could not have asked for a better DJ. He played a great variety that catered to every single person that attended. He even joined us on the dance floor at the end of the night. It was a pleasure to work with him to make our vision a reality.

Rachel, thank you so much! It was an absolute delight to be a part of your wedding celebration, and to work with you and Josh to craft a night to remember for you and your guests. Wishing you both the absolute best!!
We are so unbelievably fortunate and grateful to have had the privilege of David DJing our wedding. David is the consummate professional. He was understanding, flexible, organized, and accommodating. He provided a process that was both comprehensive and bespoke, while also providing assurance that for whatever we might have overlooked, he had us covered. Despite our indecisiveness, including changes to our song list 24 hours before our wedding, he was able to quickly pivot and make sure we felt comfortable.
On the wedding day, David was such a positive energy. You can tell that he loves what he does.
On top of everything mentioned, David is also incredibly talented. He was able to let each song breathe, the transitions were seamless, he knew exactly what the reception needed at that particular moment, and he has exquisite taste in music.
There’s much more to say. If you have a chance to catch David on a weekend he’s not booked, please run don’t walk!

Any questions?
David was essential to making our day so perfect. He was very helpful the day of and made sure to make every important moment during the day go smoothly. Everyone was on the dance floor the whole night! Big thanks to David.

Edison!! Thank you for the kind words, I was so thrilled to be a part of your celebration, and I'm so glad your friends and family had a blast on the dance floor. Wishing you and Amber the very best!
I first saw David's posts on tik tok and knew I had to fly him out for my wedding! We had a backyard wedding and really only cared about food, drinks and music. I reached out, thinking he might be too big to come to a small town in CA but I was pleasantly surprised! David was friendly, down to earth, and more importantly -available! We had 3 check ins where we discussed timeline, logistics and song choices. Admittedly I had particular genres and artists I wanted to hear and on the day of, David played every song on my list. I was incredibly grateful that he played some of his own mixes (like the Spongebob one) and incorporated some custom sound effects. Everyone was so impressed with the transitions, the energy was constantly up! We even asked him to stay extra and he did! If you are looking for a wedding DJ that is special, unique, and talented, please reach out to David! (Ps. we had an indian and mexican fusion wedding)

Carolina! Thank you so much for the glowing recommendation, I was so glad to be a part of your beautiful celebration. Wishing you and Shivam the very best in this next chapter!!
David was the DJ for our wedding ceremony and reception at Russo's On The Bay. From the very first time we spoke, David was extremely professional and gave us the confidence to entrust him with our wedding day. He was easy to talk to and receptive to our feedback. David was well prepared and gave us an outline of all the information required to execute his services. He was in constant communication and readily available. David collaborated well with our MC and assured our wedding vision came to life.
We highly recommend David Victor if you need a DJ!!

Thank you so much Amy & Ravi!! It was an absolute pleasure helping you celebrate your special day, and I wish you both the very best in this new chapter!
Hiring DJ David for our wedding last month was one of the absolute best decisions we made when wedding planning! He blew us away with his ability to read the room and play the perfect music at just the right time. I genuinely had the funnest night of my life and felt so lucky to have had DJ David- we received so many compliments from family and friends about how good the music was! For example, he played "Summertime Magic" by Donald Glover when dinner was served, and I looked around and could have cried from happiness at how perfect it all felt to us. Even my dad came up to us during the meal and commented on how perfect the song choice was. The entire night was like that! DJ David was so responsive, kind and flexible throughout the entire process. We had a tented wedding near the beach in CT, and he did a fantastic job making the sound perfect for our setting. We are so grateful to DJ David for making our wedding so much fun, full of dancing, and with the best music. We could not have asked for a better DJ to collaborate with! It's difficult making decisions for big events like weddings, but I wouldn't hesitate one bit on hiring DJ David for it!

Lauren! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Logan for your beautiful wedding! You truly set me up for success. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you both the very very best!!
David was the DJ at our wedding in April 2024, and he was nothing short of amazing! Among the top compliments we received from our guests were praises for the food and how phenomenal our DJ was. David truly stood out.
From the start, he took the time to meet with my husband and me to discuss every detail. His attention to detail and commitment to understanding our vision made all the difference. A week before our wedding, we encountered a crisis, and David was there to talk us through it and help us find a solution. His support and professionalism were incredibly reassuring.
Neither my husband nor I are very directive when it comes to planning events, but David effortlessly took the lead and made everything flow perfectly. We trusted him completely, and it absolutely paid off. His ability to read the room and keep the energy high was remarkable.
We would highly recommend David to anyone looking for a fantastic DJ. He was instrumental in making our wedding day unforgettable!

Katherine! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Joseph for your beautiful wedding! You truly set me up for success. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you both the very very best!!
We hired David for our wedding at Chelsea Piers this April. From the beginning, working with David was an absolute pleasure, he met with us frequently, gave us ideas and allowed our input for the music selection. David was very organized and detailed in his work. We had a very diverse group of guests in our wedding and David was able to include music for a variety of cultures and generations. Everyone that we spoke to during and after the wedding said the music was phenomenal and asked us about our DJ. We are very grateful we were able to find such a great DJ with his amazing personality. Muchas gracias David!!!!

Carla, it was such an honor being a part of your big day. So happy that you, Gibram and your friends and family had a great time. Wishing you both the absolute best!
David deejayed by daughter's Sweet 16 and he was excellent! He is a pleasure to work with, along with being responsive, and prepared. He knew all of the music we wanted played and played the songs at the right time. He watched the dance floor and made sure it was always full! I'm looking for another event where we can use his services. You can't go wrong with David!

Kim! It was such a pleasure working with you! Thank you so much for the kind words. Can't wait to work with you again some time in the future!
We hired DJ David to DJ for us in the city for our wedding ceremony and dinner reception. For all the stages of planning, DJ David was professional, super responsive and accommodating. You can tell he is passionate about his work! David is very thorough and makes sure he takes ownership of the program so that you can just have a good time on the day of. And he sure did because my wife danced the entire night. It was a pleasure working with him and we recommend DJ David a hundred percent!
It was truly a seamless experience working with David. He was very organized, professional, and very flexible. We always had a blast connecting in the number of prep calls and felt that we were in good hands during the day of the wedding. Would highly recommend David to people who are looking for a great DJ for their special day!

William!! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Tina. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you both the absolute best!
David is amazing! He DJ'd our wedding, and was extremely communicative, friendly, and just an overall chill person to work with (definitely something you want when you're stressfully planning a wedding). Pre-wedding, David was organized and set up multiple meetings to chat with us to answer questions and provided us with a planning worksheet that helped us out a ton. For the wedding itself, our venue was a bit unique, but David was able to set-up the sound system and worked around small schedule changes with no issues. Ourselves and the guests had a blast -- David is a master of his craft, truly felt the vibes of the crowd, and transitioned through songs so naturally. I can't recommend David enough, and would definitely work with him again for other events in the future!

Michelle! It was an absolute pleasure working with you and Juan for your beautiful wedding! You truly set me up for success. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you both the very very best!!
DJ David was an absolute professional for our wedding. He worked ahead of time with us to make sure he understood our preferences and needs, and was very clear in his questions and communications to make sure he got it right exactly the way we wanted. He was friendly and polite, and generally assisted with every question we had. The day of the wedding there were some scheduling issues outside of everyone's control, and he was on top of things to make sure he could catch up on his end and do whatever was necessary to assist. As for the music set, it was a delight and everyone was very pleased, with many comments from guests after about how much they enjoyed it, with at least one request for a referral later.

Emily! You and Raynor were such a joy to work with. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you both the very best!
David was the DJ for my 60th birthday. I'm not a big birthday person but this one was special so we went all out. We met with David to give him a sense for our preferences, house music, 80's and 90's R&B, old school and funk. I was a bit hesitant because David looks like he's not yet 30. Boy was I wrong and boy did he deliver. If I set the playlist myself I couldn't think of anything I would play that he didn't play that night. He really took a little information and created perfect musical sets that took me back through college, my 20's, 30's and 40s. The crowd was on the dance floor virtually all night. He's so good, I had him come to my house recently to DJ a small private event. I would highly recommend him for any event.

Thanks so much for the kind words Brian! It was such a pleasure DJing your birthday and the private event as well. Looking forward to the next one!
David is awesome! My wedding was an absolute party and the music was BEYOND perfect. We danced from start to finish at the reception and it was all because of David and his excellent production. David did lights and music for my wedding reception. Throughout the planning process, David was organized, thoughtful and extremely professional. He reached out to us months in advance to help us prepare for the wedding. He sent us mixes to ensure we were on the same page and was totally open to working with our ideas. David checked in and listened clearly to our likes and dislikes, and it showed in the final product. He got to know us as a couple, captured the vibe of the wedding, and he put together a play list that had the dance floor packed. He also was able to adjust on the fly for speeches and my cousin who decided to sing a solo last minute. David is a perfect 10 and I highly recommend him for any event. He is the best!!

Thank you so much for the kind words Leslie!! So happy I was able to help make your day so special! Wishing you and Martin the best!
David is the BEST! Professional, personable, flexible, and an extremely tuned in LISTENER. He understood the kind of vibe we wanted in every segment of our wedding and delivered. He was our sound guy and made sure that everyone who wanted to be heard was heard. His experience absolutely helped guide us to establish when certain musical transitions should happen etc. Our guests had an absolute blast and the wedding was as we wanted it to be..a Fabulous Dance Party. Thank you David for making it so.

Jackie! You were such a joy to work with. Thank you so much for the kind words! Wishing you and Jeff the very best!
David was brilliant. We interviewed about 8 DJ’s and David, without a doubt, came out on top. His professionalism was incredible, but his breadth of musical understanding was what made us choose him. EDM, Rap, R&B, Pop, Classics— it was all covered. When asking him our own questions, we quickly realized that he was just as educated on the music we loved as we were. I was so stressed about everyone having a good time at my wedding and didn’t realize how much music has to do with that enjoyment. So many of my stresses dissolved after seeing all my friends and family on the dance floor all night. My night was riddled with “The music is amazing!” or “where did you find this DJ?” David can do it all and then some. If I could go back and do all this prep again (thank god I don’t), I would choose David every single time. Thank you for adding so much beauty to the most important day of our lives.

You're the sweetest! It was truly my pleasure to be apart of your special day. Wishing you and your husband the absolute best!
David was able to DJ my wedding on a last-minute basis after my previous DJ canceled. He drove 2 hours on a Tuesday night to play a phenomenal set for our occasion that made myself, my husband, and our guests feel connected and engaged. David was extremely professional throughout the planning process and the night of. He even maintained composure in the stressful situation where his laptop broke during the set. He didn’t let this inconvenience stop him and still kept the party going! I wouldn’t recommend anyone else for their special night. He will truly make your wedding a memorable one.
