DJ DWill Brought the Party to Our Wedding Reception!
If you’re getting married in New Orleans and want a reception that your guests will never stop talking about—DJ DWill is your guy.
From the start, DWill was professional, responsive, and so easy to work with. He took time to understand our music tastes, our crowd, and the kind of energy we wanted for the night—and then absolutely delivered.
He read the room perfectly, kept the dance floor packed all night, and mixed everything from classics to bounce to our personal favorites like a pro. What we loved most is that he didn’t just play a playlist—he curated an experience. It felt like us. Guests of all ages had a blast, and we’ve gotten nonstop compliments on how fun and full of life the night was. We particularly appreciate his attention to detail for those special moments like our first dance, a surprise choreographed bridesmaid routine, etc. The transitions were flawless to say the least.
DJ DWill is the real deal—100% recommend if you want a reception that feels authentic, joyful, and uniquely NOLA.
Sincerely,
Parker & Josie DeAgano

Your wedding DJ can make or break your wedding experience! Thank God we chose DJ Will!! I loved his energy, you can tell he enjoys providing a premium experience! The part that really stood out to me is I had all these “special things” I wanted during the 2 hour reception that seemed like 15 minutes in reality! During the reception, DJ Will “huddled” with us and asked what we wanted to keep and made suggestions, was willing to pivot and ensure we had an amazing experience! I will never forget that!! I’ll hire him again and again!

He brought so much joy to the process of planning the music for our reception and he paid attention to the all the details we didn’t think of. He’s very reliable and responsive. He made our night so memorable and fun. Thanks you again DJ DWill!!

The absolute best! We did a studio 54-esque after party and he nailed every single song. I couldn’t recommend him enough. It was the perfect, most fun way to close out our wedding day and some of my favorite memories.

DJ DWill (Darious) was amazing to work with! My wife and I got married in New Orleans in 2022 and needed a DJ to run our wedding party and keep the vibes on target; Darious was just the man for the task. Professional, easy-going, fun to work with, DJ DWill is a solid choice for any wedding. Big thanks for being part of our wedding, Darious!

I cannot recommend Darious enough for your wedding DJ! He truly made our vision come to life from ceremony to reception. Music was a crucial part of our wedding and I had wanted our reception to be a party to remember! Darious worked seamlessly with our wedding planner and our venue and made the day stress free for us. He’s communicative and thoughtful. He truly killed it when it came to the music for our reception and EVERYONE was on the dance floor the entire night! He is truly an incredible DJ!
