About this vendor
DJ Orlando Entertainment is a wedding disc jockey company based in Baltimore, MD. This team services the state of Maryland as well as areas of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, DC. Managed by Jessica and David Orlando, this company focuses on providing couples with a customized sound to suit their style.
Founded in 2004, the idea of the company was conceived when Jessica and David were searching for vendors for their own wedding. They found that many companies were unwilling or unable to change their processes to suit their vision or take their personal preferences into account. DJ Orlando Entertainment was thus created, and this couple continues to run the show to this day. David, a graduate of The Broadcasting Institute of Maryland, has worked as a disc jockey for over 10 years. Jessica has a bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts and Technology, as well as a master’s degree in Human Resources Development.
Couples who book this company can expect to work with a team of consummate professionals who have been carefully curated by Jessica and David. The team offers consultations to couples before booking so that they can discuss the details of the wedding. They also ask couples to talk them through their personal style and vision for the event. This gives them an understanding of the atmosphere that the couple wants to create. They can then confirm if they are able to customize their services accordingly to suit this. Couples will have access to a selection of music, where they can build the list of music they want to hear on the day. With a wide range of tunes and musical styles, from Bollywood to Country to Hip-hop, couples can create the dream soundtrack for their day.
DJ Orlando Entertainment offers a range of wedding packages and can cater for receptions, cocktail hours, and wedding ceremonies. They also offer custom packages. The team works with professional-grade sound equipment and will arrive one hour before the event to complete sound checks. These disc jockeys will dress to suit the tone of your event, whether it be a black tie, business casual, or semi-formal. They offer wireless microphones for the wedding speeches and officiants and can bring lapel microphones. Upon request, the team can also bring an assistant, which they recommend for events with over 200 guests.

Friendly, hard working, professional, kind and fun. David and his people are second to none. I have had the pleasure of attending at least 5 or 6 weddings prior that David DJ'ed and he was always great. So when it came time for mine, I knew exactly who I wanted. I was not disappointed. His prices are great and his service is wonderful. He was organized, low stress and flexible during the wedding. I would strongly recommend him to others. Thank you David, you rock!
DJ Orlando was an absolute gem to work with! From our initial meeting, he took the time to ensure that every detail was covered, setting the stage for an unforgettable celebration. His talent for entertainment was evident throughout the night, keeping the energy high and the dance floor packed!
David communicated with us seamlessly during the day, helping us stay on track with our timeline. His ability to read the crowd was impressive; he even played an extra song because everyone was having such a fantastic time!
Not to mention, his pricing is very reasonable, especially for the top-notch service he provides. I can’t recommend DJ Orlando highly enough—he truly made our wedding a memorable experience!
David was awesome!! He was the perfect DJ and MC for our June 2024 wedding in Rock Hall, MD. We had him do the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. He was so easy to work with, especially in the weeks leading up to our wedding and figuring out all the details on wedding day. He was super friendly and fun - we kept hearing from our guests how great the music was throughout the day. Would highly recommend David for your DJ needs, especially for a wedding.
Dave was the best DJ at our wedding! Played banger after banger and we didn’t want to leave the dance floor! His cues were perfect for the ceremony and grand entrance ! 10/10 recommend !
Dj David Orlando did a phenomenal job for my wedding. He was very easy to work with and really went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect.
Our wedding DJ, David, was amazing!! We had such a fun night and he played everything we asked for. We spoke to him beforehand and went over all the details. Everything was perfect!
DJ Orlando did a phenomenal job with our wedding! He showed up on time, was very professional , and very organized. He really brought the life to our party! I would highly recommend him to anyone.
DJ David Orlando was a phenomenal hype man who got the party started and kept it going all night long!!! He was so easy to work with and so personable both when meeting him prior and on the day of. He made sure everything was taken care of with regards to music and all the special additions we wanted to have. He really cares and truly loves what he does-which shows in how fabulous the night was. 5 stars for sure!!
DJ Orlando did an excellent job. Will recommend!
DJ Orlando Entertainment was amazing!! David was super easy to work with, helped make our reception timeline perfect. Made great suggestions that we wouldn’t even have thought of and was always very quick to respond when we had questions that came up. All of the guests loved the music & were on the dance floor almost the whole night. My husband and I could not be happier with the service we received. 100% recommend for any event!!
Talk about a DJ that knew the assignment - seriously, just save the time searching and go with Orlando. He was PERFECT. He knew exactly what my husband and I wanted without us having to explain detail by detail how we want the night to go. He was SO NICE and just took control, which was what we needed because we didn't have a day of coordinator. We also had some last minute changes the day of and he was so accommodating and made it all work. We wanted our wedding to be lively and entertaining, and he made sure just that happened. He had EVERYONE on the dance floor - he read the room so well and made sure everyone had a great time. Cost wise, he offered the best price compared to anyone else we found. He allowed us not to have to worry about the night and if everyone was having fun. He took care of it and I cannot recommend him enough. If we ever need a DJ again, he will be the only person we go to.
Dave was fantastic! All communications with him prior to the wedding were very clear. He really took the time to understand what kind of music we wanted and he delivered exactly what we asked for. He provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing and his selections were spot on. He also honored our request to keep the volume at a level where people could still converse. He arrived on time and followed the timeline we provided and kept things moving the way we intended. He dressed very professionally, he was attentive, and his equipment was top notch. We cannot say enough about how incredible he was! We would highly, highly recommend DJ Orlando for your wedding!
Dave did a great job! He's entertaining, trustworthy and dedicated to making sure you have a wonderful day. He created great playlists and had us dancing the night away!
How can I say enough good about DJ Dave. He was a consummate professional, courteous, and genuinely good to work with concerning the entertainment of our reception. He provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, and he did not disappoint. We gave him an extensive list of songs to play, and he didn't miss anything we requested. I couldn't recommend his services highly enough. He was a large part of making our wedding day the perfect event. There was not a disappointed person at the venue the whole night. He kept us entertained, and he helped us keep track of the night. Be sure to use him for any event you need. He is wonderful.
DJ David Orlando provided services for our wedding reception. He has a great database of music and definitely got the party started! He is very professional, responsive, and personable. Before the event, he provided an event organizer that is easy to fill out and was very helpful! He also set up a phone call before the wedding to go over all the details. We couldn’t have been happier with our reception and We highly recommend DJ Orlando!
DJ David Orlando was amazing. He’s exactly what you need if you want your reception to be a party. Honestly even if you didn’t want a crazy party, he’s your guy. He really took the time to know us and understand what we wanted our reception to be like. I also loved that he had his wife phonetically write down our wedding parties names so they he could pronounce them perfectly. We even had some last-minute changes, and he was totally on top of it. Really the whole process was effortless I honestly almost thought it was a scam because he’s so affordable and everything seemed too good to be true. But it’s not! He really is that good and our reception went off without a hitch because of him.
DJ Orlando was great! He did the audio for our ceremony and reception, and had a really helpful organizer for us to fill out. We had a call with him shortly before the wedding and he had great suggestions for key moments (cocktail hour music, last song, etc). We were lucky to get married after Maryland had lifted restrictions, and all of our guests were vaccinated, so everyone was ready to celebrate. Our dance floor was packed the whole night and everyone had a great time, whether they were 18 or 80.
I can not say enough great things about DJ Orlando! We needed a lot of help and guidance in selecting songs and planning our ceremony, and David was always willing to help and answer questions. DJ Orlando went above and beyond in planning our ceremony. He went over EVERY detail of the ceremony and reception to make sure our day was perfect. At the reception, David was amazing at reading the crowd and selecting songs to get people on the dance floor. He is outgoing and knows how to make the occasion fun for everyone. We LOVE DJ Orlando!
Leading up to our wedding, David was so helpful and responsive. We had our call with Bruce the week of, and he was able to walk us through the day and secure our music choices - we didn't have many song preferences w/r to reception music, we just wanted everyone to have a good time and get out on the dance floor. Bruce did not disappoint! Everyone was talking about how much fun they had, and Bruce had everyone dancing by the end of the night!
With DJ Orlando Entertainment you are in great hands. David was awesome to work with, he made things very easy, had a great music database and easy paperwork to lay out exactly what you want and when. He set us up with his partner DJBruce for our wedding. Bruce was awesome. He was such a fun, awesome guy. He was energetic and easy to talk to and played awesome music for us. He had a great attitude and made the dance party fun. I would highly recommend working with this company, we couldn't have asked for better!
AMAZING job! we started falling behind the day of and DJ Orlando got us back on track and got everyone on the dance floor. My only wish is it could have lasted longer because he was playing killer music and we were having a blast!! 10/10 recommend!
DJ Dennis was the DJ for our wedding, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! When we spoke on the phone before the event, he was super attentive and paid attention to every little detail. He is also very experienced and handled all of my questions/anxieties with ease. You could tell he really cared about what we wanted for our wedding. At the actual event, he was timely, professional, and was the glue that held the entire event together. He kept to the schedule and kept things moving smoothly. Not to mention, he did a fantastic job with the music and handling all of the ridiculous requests we had. Overall, we were so happy with DJ Dennis and our experience with DJ Orlando Entertainment!!
DJ Orlando did a great job at our wedding introducing our large bridal party and keeping music in line with my and my husband tastes. He is very charismatic and made our wedding reception special.
DJ Orlando was absolutely amazing to work with! From the first consultation he was extremely personable and was intent on learning about my spouse and myself! He was on top of everything from sound and lighting in the ceremony and the reception area! He made sure to pronounce everyone's name correctly and was extremely organized to make sure our day went smoothly! I would highly recommend to work with DJ Orlando, I couldn't have thought of a better choice! An absolute 10 out of 10, he made our wedding day spectacular!!
Absolutely loved having DJ Orlando at my wedding. I had last minutes changes and he just rolled with them and made it all come together beautifully. He had a nice balance of music and read the room well to keep the party going!
DJ Orlando was one of the best decisions of our wedding. David provides a professional, and truly customize-able experience, and even though we had a do play /do not play list, he helped us curate it even further for things we hadn't thought of yet. Our music was perfect.
He worked with our other vendors to make our wedding day stress free, and I am so grateful for his experience and kindness. Great customer service, and he will provide exactly what you want on your day.
DJ Orlando was amazing! He guided us through the process and helped us visualize what we actually wanted our music to be. We were extremely happy with our choice. He was always friendly, professional, and flexible. He was perfect. Can't recommend enough!
Our wedding was an absolute DREAM. We chose to use David months prior to our wedding because he was so highly reviewed and I’m about to add one more 5-star to his list! From the very first conversation we knew we were in good hands. David was professional, responsive and just knew what the heck he was doing! We told David we wanted our dance floor full the entire night and he delivered. I’m talking people aged 2-99... not one person was sitting. He absolutely killed it- from the ceremony, to the announcing, to the very last song he made our dreams of a fun wedding come true. We can’t thank you enough, David!
DJ Orlando was a huge part of the success of my daughter and her husband’s wedding reception! David was professional, engaging, and full of energy. He worked with them to create a playlist that had our guests on the dance floor the entire time. I highly recommend DJ Orlando!
DJ Orlando is the absolute best! You won’t be sorry if you book him for your special day! He is friendly, social, and accommodating. I had many questions before my wedding and found his advice and recommendations very helpful. His experience makes it so that you will absolutely not have to stress about music/entertainment on your big day.
We've been to several events with DJ Orlando Entertainment. I can honestly say you won't find a more friendly, professional and accommodating team out there. It's pretty evident that this team of DJs love their job and are quite good at it. From weddings to bull roasts to school dances and proms, DJ Orlando always fills the dance floor and is one of the most interactive DJs I've experienced. Definitely worth giving them a call for your next event!
DJ Bruce was incredible! He kept the party going all night - everyone was on the dance floor!!
Mr. Orlando was great from the start. He listened to our needs and paired us with DJ Bruce based on our music style. Bruce was amazing. All of our guests loved him, he played all of our requested songs plus gave us recommendations of others that our guests would enjoy. I would definitely recommend this DJ!
Could not have been more pleased with David!! He absolutely crushed it the whole night and even assisted with an issue we had with one of the bus drivers! I would absolutely recommend using DJ Orlando. He is reasonably priced and very easy to work with. Thank you for helping to make our big day amazing!!
We loved DJ Orlando!!! He did such an amazing job at our wedding! He played exactly what we asked for and avoided our "do not plays". He got the just of what we wanted and got all of the guests on their feet dancing! He made sure he properly prepared for our big day by doing things like going over the music list with us and making sure he was pronouncing all of our names right. During the ceremony, he even reminded guests of things like our guest book for us! He also checked in with us to make sure everything was to our liking. He is an amazing value for what you get by booking him!
DJ Orlando was awesome!!! I would 100% recommend him to any of my friends. He was very responsive, helpful and organized during the planning process. A week or so before the wedding, he did a phone consultation with us where we went over every detail of our wedding to make sure it turned out exactly how we wanted it! During our wedding, David kept the timeline flowing smoothly from the introductions to the bouquet toss, and everything in between. Our guests had a blast and were dancing the entire time!! Don't hesitate to book DJ Orlando!
Dj Orlando did an amazing job at my wedding this past weekend! He followed our playlist but also read the crowd and played music accordingly. He stuck to our timeline and emceed each tradition perfectly. Everything ran smoothly on my special day. I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!! I highly recommend using him!
We had DJ Dennis from DJ Orlando Entertainment for our wedding in April, and he was AWESOME! He coordinated sound for the ceremony perfectly, even with an outdoor set up for musicians and officiant on a windy day! Dennis also played all the right songs to get people moving and grooving--and he kept everyone on the dance floor all night! He took some of our favorite songs and read the crowd perfectly. Dennis took care of all the details--including customizing 3 parent-child dances--which made our job to just relax and enjoy the wedding. He made announcements and introduced the wedding party perfectly. He was everything that you hope to have in a DJ for your wedding.
Total professionals who did everything to make the music to our day great!
Bruce was great to work with, did a fantastic job with the setup despite not having been to our venue previously, and had an excellent playlist. He coordinated with us as appropriate through the evening and seemed very comfortable with everything throughout our party. We even received compliments from our guests on the music. The only criticism I have is that we heard maybe a couple of songs twice throughout the evening, but everything else was so good I wouldn't think twice about going to DJ Orlando again!
I highly recommend! Very easy to work with and highly professional.
I had Dennis be my DJ at my wedding. He showed up on time and had everything set up and ready to go. I ended up changing my timeline in the middle of the wedding and Dennis didn’t bat an eye and changed it up for me perfectly! He was so helpful with not only the music but guiding people to dinner and the cake cutting, making sure the photographer got the pictures I needed. He was amazing and I’m so happy I had him as my DJ.
David is amazing to work with. He was easy going, easy to communicate with, and played the best mix of music any of our guests had heard at a wedding. We had so many compliments on his music choices and how he kept the dance floor going all night!
David is just amazing! He really is an all in one package. You need a master of ceremonies to get things moving on time and people dancing? You got it. You need a hype man to make your wedding party excited? You got it! You need a guy to help you take a breath and not stress because it’s all handled? You got it! He is so flexible with changes that may happen, but still get all the important stuff done. I can’t thank him enough for the music and reassurance he gave us. Thank you David !
David was outstanding!! He helped us plan every aspect of the music. Even when we were late starting the ceremony, he kept everything moving smoothly. My serious highlight of the day.... I was in the back changing, my photographer and videographer were both eating, my Mom apparently started a Congo line and everyone joined!! We didn't even know! About an hour after the wedding, David sent us the video! He knew we weren't there, so he used his phone to record it for us! Over the top amazing! We can't thank him enough.
DJ Orlando was fantastic! He was easy to get ahold of and took the time to walk through everything for the day with us and make sure we were happy. And boy were we! Everything went smoothly for the ceremony and people were out on the dance floor the whole time for the wedding. It was a great playlist!
I'm so glad my husband and I booked DJ Orlando for our wedding. He was organized, had fast communication, was easy to book, and affordable. He took the time to learn and pronounce our wedding part names before the wedding and learn about the style and type of music we really wanted. He also provided some bits of advice during our planning meeting. He truly kept the party going throughout our whole reception, and made me spend most of the night on the dance floor. A DJ really plays an important part of your wedding reception and trust me, you can rely on DJ Orlando to make it memorable and customized for you!
DJ Orlando was great in the process leading up to the wedding. He was organized, professional and happy to make suggestions.
We had DJ Bruce for our ceremony and he was great as well. He was professional and kept the party moving and adjusted to crowd as the evening went on.
Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better experience.
We loved working with David Orlando of DJ Orlando Entertainment for our December 2017 wedding! David was so much fun to work with throughout the entire process. He really listened to what we wanted and made it happen! The MC-ing and music were perfect and made the whole evening a success.
AMAZING!!!!! Truly, the best DJ we could have asked for. David was professional every step of the way, from our initial meeting through the planning and the day itself. I didn't really like wedding planning, so was totally overwhelmed as the date got closer. I had "decision fatigue" and just couldn't make any more decisions. David was super understanding and responsive. I leaned on him for several recommendations, including music for the dinner hour. Wouldn't you know it, I got TONS of compliments on the dinner hour music! My husband and I love to dance, so we wanted our wedding to be a true dance party, and David totally delivered! He had everyone (even the grandmas!) up and dancing the entire night. He rolled with the punches anytime there were changes to the timeline the day of the wedding. He brought the party without making it about him (which I've seen too often with other DJs). He also 100% correctly pronounced our (complicated) last name and the challenging names in our wedding party. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I've already recommended David to a co-worker and will definitely continue to do so!
My Spouse and I used David Orlando (DJ Orlando)’s services for our wedding at the 2640 Space on April 29, 2017. From the first time we spoke to David, we knew he was the DJ for us. We had some concerns about the venue sound, balancing playing music we enjoyed with music people can dance to, we didn’t want a cheesy personality DJ, multiple music set-ups, etc. David took the time to talk us through all of our concerns and made great suggestions for the flow of the music and the day in general. He kept in contact with us and our wedding coordinator as we got closer to the day and we felt completely comfortable with him behind the mic.
DJ Orlando’s services were the best quality and quantity for the price. We thought he was extremely fair. We used a second set-up at our location for the ceremony, and in both the reception area and ceremony room, the sound was flawless.
We insisted on using non-censored versions of certain songs and DJ Orlando was happy to oblige. We have alternative tastes in music, so DJ Orlando helped us to navigate when to play our faves and when to play dance hits. He picked up on things we hadn’t even thought of, like piano instrumentals vs. guitar instrumentals. He confirmed the pronunciation of each of our announced guests with us. He has a nice, subtle Baltimore accent.
Overall, David Orlando did everything in his power to make sure things went smoothly on the day of and that we were happy. The next time I get married (or retire, or throw a bat-mitzvah, etc), I will definitely use DJ Orlando.
We booked DJ Orlando for our wedding at the Chart House in November. We had Bruce as our DJ. My wife did most of the consulting with him during the planning stage, but I met him during the actual event. He was outstanding. Wedding timelines are off the moment the wedding begins, and Bruce rolled with everything. Late busses, long lines to get food, the newly wed game (which he had never done, but I think he liked it!), everything. I realized the importance of having a good DJ the moment the reception began. He was so flexible and personable. During your wedding, you need a DJ that you have absolute confidence in his performance and professionalism. DJ Bruce is that guy. Thank you Bruce and the whole DJ Orlando team. You made our reception fantastic.
Bruce was our DJ and he was awesome! We hit it off during our consultation and felt that Bruce was on the same page regarding the music selection and overall ambiance we wanted for the evening. He was very attentive and dedicated to making sure we were on schedule and communicated with us throughout the evening. He was very accommodating and worked with our wedding planner and soloist for the first dance without ever making it seem like an inconvenience. Overall great experience with this company and would highly recommend Bruce who kept the party going and was never intrusive. Thank you!!
DJ Orlando Entertainment was wonderful to work with. Bruce was our DJ, and both Bruce and David were responsive, accommodating, and truly able to provide awesome music. It was an amazing day, and DJ Orlando Entertainment definitely helped create the wonderful experience. I would recommend them for any event.
DJ Orlando Entertainment is fantastic! Worked with me every step of the way and answered my stupid questions 😝 Bruce was our DJ and he is amazing! He did a wonderful job throughout the entire wedding event.
David from DJ Orlando helped make our wedding day a success. We used his website to plan our music. When there was an issue he was able to recommend songs for certain areas. He kept our day flowing even with 3 different rooms to move around. Thank you!
Dave was our DJ and he did a fantastic job! I had interviewed several other DJs but talking on the phone with Dave I was completely at ease and he had a wonderful personality that I knew would suit our wedding just right. He is incredibly organized and wants to make sure that he gives you exactly what you want at your event. He spoke with us initially and then again a month or so before the wedding to make sure that everything was planned out and solidified. He worked with my caterer on the timeline on the day of so that everything would go smoothly and didn't bother us for anything. When we fell behind schedule, he adapted so easily to make sure that we did everything we planned to do. He is professional, personable, and had the right amount of energy and humor to give the event the level of class and light-heartedness that we were going for. He was on time and had everything set up and ready to go. His prices are extremely fair considering we had about 3 different set ups for the event. He would always answer my phone call, even if he was busy at the moment. I would highly recommend Dave and would trust his opinion to go with anyone else that is part of his company.
Our experience with Dave Orlando was perfect! He was very responsive with setting up our event, he offered great ideas for the reception, and kept the entire night moving smoothly. We gave him a list of songs to play, and he stuck to it! Couldn't be more satisfied.
DJ Orlando is a very organized and professional DJ company. David is outgoing, fun, and understanding. He answers any questions and makes sure that everything will go smoothly on your big day. My bridesmaid actually had him as her DJ a few years back, and just like at my wedding, he did great. His speaker systems and quality of sound were good. No issues or disconnects. I highly recommend DJ Orlando. He did a wonderful job.
My husband and I are a young military couple. We planned our wedding within 7 months and DJ Orlando was GREAT to work with. He always found a way to work with my crazy schedule when planning. Our wedding was beautiful and it wouldn't have been the same without David! The announcements were fantastic and the music was perfect. He found a way to have every single person dancing (kids all the way to grandparents). Everyone truly had a blast, I wouldn't choose any other DJ!!!
