DJ Paul Entertainment - Wedding DJ | Uplighting

d everyone dancing from NO JOKE beginning to end, which ranged from oldies to new hits as well as hip hop, r&b, punk, pop, rock, latino, dance, and EDM. We had a very diverse group of wedding guests - different ethnicities from all over the country and a wide range of age groups - who were all impressed with Paul. He was able to play all of our must haves in addition to taking requests from our guests and even gave us glowsticks for when we were ready to turn up! He was very professional, responsive and flexible while caring about every detail of our big day. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect outcome on such an important portion of our wedding. Thank you SO SO much, DJ Paul!!

e to our wedding timeline. The day of the wedding, we realized we had made a mistake about where we told him to set up. Paul was very adaptable by changing his location last minute and never skipped a beat. Paul is very passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. We knew that he genuinely cared about us and what we wanted for our wedding. He did a fantastic job and we’re very pleased with his performance. We highly recommend using him!

w much he cares about each wedding. When we met two weeks before our wedding, Paul did an excellent job listening to our ideas, offering suggestions, and helping fill in the blanks that we wouldn't be aware of since we aren't in the wedding industry. We came to DJ Paul with a set list of certain songs we wanted, and song themes. He did an amazing job fitting in all of the songs, pulling out some song gems that fit our theme, and kept our guests happy and entertained. During the day of the event, DJ Paul immediately noticed a disconnect between the venue and all of the vendors, and he took it upon himself to solve the issues without involving me so me and my groom could truly enjoy the evening. During the event, DJ Paul did an amazing job keeping the event moving, chiming in when necessary and getting the crowd fired up, but also knowing when to let the music speak for itself. What made DJ Paul be the star of the night, was his ability to be empathetic and pivot based on the events of the night. Initially, we weren't going to do a father/daughter & mother/son dance because my father is sick and may not have been in attendance. My dad was able to make it to the event, and was able to, with very little planning or notice, reorganize the schedule of reception events, seamlessly play the song my dad wanted to dance to, find a song for the mother/son dance, and handled it with such class, allowing my dad to maintain his dignity. It's a moment I'll remember all of my life, and it's all due to DJ Paul. I highly recommend DJ Paul for you event; not only will you have someone who will provide a meaningful soundtrack for your day, but you'll get to work with a professional who genuinely cares about his couples and makes sure their day is one to remember.

eally took the pressure off! Beyond his accommodations, DJ Paul was so prepared I almost felt he was more on top of things than I was, while I was planning my own wedding! He responded to emails in minutes, guided us through a lot of the logistical details to prepare for a smooth wedding, and thoroughly reviewed our prep packages. The DJ is a make or break investment for a wedding - we have been to weddings where the entire reception is ruined by mispronounced names, lack of proper announcements for the reception events like cake cutting, and music that doesn’t get people dancing. With DJ Paul, we had no concerns about the wedding event. The day of the wedding went amazingly smoothly - DJ Paul kept the dance floor completely full with parents, young kids, and everyone in between. We gave almost no guidance for the playlist we wanted, but DJ Paul was able to play music that appealed to everyone and kept the energy up the entire event. We had even more people than we expected up and dancing - so much so that we moved the sweetheart table to accommodate everyone! Many guests commented that he was the best DJ they remembered from any wedding they had been to. Even months later, the amazing flow and music that DJ Paul provided for our wedding is still a topic of conversation in our family. Hiring DJ Paul made our postponement to our postponed wedding the best night we could have hoped for! We would choose him all over again.

h you, very thoroughly. He truly is there for you and wants to please you in any way he can. If you're looking for a GREAT TIME and NONSTOP PARTY, DJ Paul is your guy.

along as well. Extremely professional and organized in the lead up to the event and on the day itself. Great price. Highly recommended. Choose DJ Paul for your event!

with us BEFORE any changes or succumbing to other people's requests. Not to mention, his pricing is totally reasonable! Thank you DJ Paul!

the only one that guaranteed a replacement if our DJ got sick (which is incredibly important given COVID). We were able to book fairly quickly and easily, and submitted our online wedding questionnaire. DJ Paul provided many lists of most-requested songs for each portion of the wedding, which was really helpful. Our assigned DJ was Felix, and he was having trouble reading the submitted PDF questionnaire so we ended up retyping everything into a Word document (his own template) for him. This included YouTube links for every song so he would know which version to use, phonetic pronunciations of every name, and a very detailed schedule for the day. We had a Zoom meeting to go over everything as well, so we thought we were on the same page. He was patient about all of our many questions, and was so gracious about having to set up a wireless sound system in the woods for the ceremony and then having an entirely second setup for the separate cocktail hour and reception locations. The day of the wedding, though, he arrived after he was supposed to start playing without any advanced notice. He played the bridal processional song for the entire wedding party processionals. There was a flower man as well, and though he played the correct song for that processional he started playing it when the guy was halfway down the aisle. During the reception he played the wrong artist for all of our song choices, and mispronounced everyone's names - one of the groomsmen didn't even get introduced at all. For our first song he played the wrong artist so we went with it, but about halfway through he realized his mistake and starting playing the correct version - as in, he just abruptly stopped the one song and started playing the correct song. He told us that he was going to have an assistant, but he didn't bring one so there were a couple times that he left the booth unattended - like when he was in the middle of calling tables for food, so the groom had to call the next set of tables because we couldn't find Felix anywhere. There were a couple times when he was MC-ing that he clearly had no idea what was going on, so there were some really long, awkward pauses while we waited for him to figure it out. The photographer had a copy of our schedule and kept us on track because Felix was not paying attention at all. The next morning when we were cleaning up we found some cups on the ground behind the DJ booth (which was very far away from any other tables) that had been used for sangria - I don't know if it was Felix or not, but I would like to think that vendors would not be drinking alcohol while working, and more importantly I would like to think that vendors would be better than leaving trash on the ground for other people to clean up. The music selection was great though once we opened up for dancing! Overall we got what we were expecting given that we booked with someone at the last minute. I'm sure that DJ Paul has other DJs that align closer to his ratings, but Felix was not great by any means.

o start planning my own. DJ Paul Entertainment had both the availability and price tag I was looking for. Mike quickly reached out and helped me outline the entire schedule for the day of. I was taken back by the amount of experience and recommendations he willing shared. Mike and I developed a friendship over just a few phone calls, building the trust every bride needs on their wedding day!

gued with me in front of my guests when I confronted him to turn off the unwanted music. There were quite a few songs he did not play that we wanted to play. The foam glow sticks that were in our package were not given to our guests or even presented. However, once Paul saw that I was upset about what had happened, he made sure I stayed on the dance floor and even went past the event time to make sure I enjoyed myself.

and helped us plan the schedule, the floor layout, everything. He was so generous with his expertise to make sure our plan was in place weeks ahead of time and could make all our lives easier. The day of went off without a hitch and all our guests had a great time on the dance floor. I would recommend DJ Paul Entertainment to any couple!

dance song. I contacted Paul in advance and we were able to work on the specifics and everything went off perfectly. He let me plug in my guitar to his mixer and turned our dance song on just as we had rehearsed it. Prior to the actual performance, he was kind enough to ask me if I had any requests for him to play during the evening, which I appreciated, but respectfully declined in deference to the bride and groom who already had worked painstakingly hard to create a set list for all their guests.

blast, but he was immensely helpful, supportive, friendly, communicative and flexible throughout the whole planning process. He had many hour long calls with my husband planning. He worked to create the exact musical soundtrack we envisioned and our wedding would not have been complete without him. He even worked to pull off a surprise musical performance with from my dad. We can’t thank you enough Paul!

o many reviews of various people and within 5 minutes of speaking with Paul on the phone I KNEW he was who I wanted. He was extremely responsive and thorough in ensuring every detail was exactly as I wanted it. I decided to leave most of the dancing music up to him (I had only had a handle of songs on the do not play list) and he did not disappoint. We were all dancing until the very end and had an absolute BLAST. There were so many guests who commented on how amazing he was, asking me how I was able to find someone so good. There were also many people who I never in a million years expected to be on the dance floor who had the time of their lives dancing, and I credit that to Paul. He truly evaluates the room and energy with different songs and chooses the next songs based on that. It was not a generic DJ with just a list of popular songs to play - Paul truly plays to the crowd and THAT is what makes him so great!!! We cannot thank him enough for all the hard work to make our day absolutely perfect! THANK YOU

hnical aspects that we had not even thought of, which demonstrates his experience in the business. DJ Paul did our sound and music for the ceremony, which went GREAT.  We were always confident that he would bring the party during our reception, and he did not disappoint! He spent all night pumping up the crowd and getting everyone on the dance floor as we wished! We are extremely happy with DJ Paul and his service. We would very highly recommend him. Thank you for everything DJ Paul :)

ng and made everything run very smoothly. As the bride, I really didn't realize what a struggle he'd been through till a couple people mentioned they felt sorry that he had to wipe down al his equipment. That was quite admirable. I am grateful for all his hard work and glad that he worked so hard to make our day phenomenal. My only gripe is that the lead-up process was technologically a bit cumbersome with the forms and everything. It might be helpful if he found some other format for submitting all of our information. But in the end, my wedding was fantastic, and that's what matters.

that she'll remember for the rest of her life.

work out perfectly. Our guests loved him and so did we. Highly recommend using him for your wedding or event!

rtant moments. However, his ability to em-cee was a little underwhelming as he seemed disorganized. We had spelled out our arrangement with him in our contract and a DJ Press Kit he had us fill out, and the week before our wedding it didn't seem like he had reviewed it prior to our meeting. In that meeting we had discussed the logistics of our reception and we thought everything was clear, but the day of we had to scramble to make adjustments because he didn't have it correctly set up for what we had talked about. Other vendors also expressed that he complained a lot behind the scenes and was a little difficult to work with. Again, the music at my wedding was GREAT, but the moments of stress that were directly due to the DJ could have been avoided if he were more on top of it. Maybe he was having a bad day?

nd Paul for anyone planning a wedding!

the wedding to review special songs my husband and I wanted played throughout the wedding. We couldn’t have been any more pleased with how our wedding music turned out. We would highly recommend him!

er. He stuck with us throughout the entire process and was always responsive to our needs. He has many years of experience and it shows, from the stylish booth setup, to the top notch equipment, and extras like lightening to enhance the ballroom decor & atmosphere. I also enjoyed our post wedding questionnaire consultation to make sure that everything was done to our specifications. He played snippets of the music for the important wedding moments to make sure that the correct version(s) of our chosen music played: as opposed to a cover song or the incorrect version. I would definitely recommend his services - you will not be disappointed!
