About this vendor
A skilled DJ will provide the perfect soundtrack to compliment your day and will be able to get people moving on the dance floor without even getting on the microphone. Choosing the right songs is a combination of taking into consideration the unique musical preferences of my clients, reading the crowd, and knowing what songs typically succeed in getting people to “bust a move”.
My approach is to stay off the microphone, except for those important announcements and introductions, which every guest will be able to hear clearly. You can relax knowing that I will coordinate closely with event staff to keep your event running on track. It all takes careful planning, attention to detail, and a positive attitude.

We cannot recommend DJ Pete enough! He was phenomenal in setting up the sound and lights for our wedding. Our friend played acoustic guitar for the ceremony and he made him sound amazing. The reception was also so fun and we had numerous guests tell us our wedding had the best music (the dance floor was packed all night). He really understood the vibe we were going for based off the list of music we had given him for what our tastes were and he did a seamless job making it all go together!
Kind, attentive, talented, communicative, knowledgeable - there is so much to say about DJ Pete! He truly went above and beyond to deliver incredible live sound at our wedding. From day one, Pete was on top of everything - planning out all the details for sound for our ceremony, reception, and after-dinner dancing.
Our wedding was at a non-traditional venue, where power sources were few and far between. DJ Pete had technical solutions for all the different spaces, and everything went flawlessly. The sound for the ceremony was loud and crystal clear, and he set up mics for a guitarist and a singer. He even recorded sound for the ceremony, and sent us an audio file after our wedding - the recording is captured beautifully, and we are so grateful for having it.
On top of the ceremony, DJ Pete set up live sound for a contradance band, including a keyboard player, fiddler, mandolin player, and vocalist. He also provided lighting for the dancing, and made the space fun and eventful. For a one-man operation, DJ Pete truly did the job of five or six people. On top of that, he is incredibly kind and easy to work with. He helped us put together a playlist for dancing, and took all the requests we wanted. After the contradance, DJ Pete kept the party going and everyone had an amazing time. He is truly the best. THANK YOU, DJ PETE!
Pete did a mindblowingly **perfect** job as our wedding DJ. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any wedding, particularly if music is important to you. Many wedding DJs run the event like sports announcers; Pete is much more like an executive producer or stage manager. He is entirely in the background, allowing the joy of the day to take center stage, all the while pulling all the levers and doing a massive amount of attentive, personalized work to make sure that your long-considered visions spring to life. For us, he went so far as to manually calibrate the color temperature of the uplighting to match the hue of the candlelight at dinner. He accommodated every single request we made and, most importantly, chose a dance playlist that had almost all guests dancing like jovial lunatics all night. We could not possibly imagine our wedding without him, so we hope you hire him and see for yourself!
Pete was absolutely amazing! He worked with us months before our event and we had a nice wrap up call the week prior. The music and lighting was phenomenal! If anyone is looking for a DJ, Pete is your guy!
We loved having DJ Pete for our wedding at the Red Barn at Hampshire College in Amherst. He has been at that venue a lot so knows the setup really well. We felt at ease because of his experience.
He worked with us to curate the theme of the night that we wanted and cued the music perfectly at every moment. His equipment is top tier, crystal clear and his lighting perfectly accentuated the barn interior. He is a fabulous emcee—not over the top at all like some DJs can be. He blended seamlessly into the night and even handled our request for a unique game during the festivities as if he’d done it before.
We couldn’t be happier with our choice—he is part of what made our wedding perfect and I would say I’d you’re on the fence, get off it and book Pete immediately.
DJ Pete was an absolutely fantastic person to work with for our wedding. His clear communications, promptness, and calming presence made the planning process a breeze. DJ Pete matched our music taste perfectly while also adapting to the energy on the dance floor. Everyone was raving about the music throughout the reception and multiple people commented that it was the most electric wedding dance floor they had have ever been on.
Pete went above and beyond! We used his audio & DJ services at our wedding in Ashfield, MA this June and everything surpassed our expectations! The audio was clear and concise during our windy outdoor ceremony. Our friends and family loved that he took their music requests. He was present and supportive of our timeline throughout the entire day. It meant so much to have someone local and familiar to us with us on our special day. Thank you Pete!
Pete is an amazing Dj! My husband and I booked him for our wedding in May and he was professional and such a kind person! I couldn’t have asked for a better Dj for my special day!
I am so happy we found Pete for our wedding! During the planning process Pete is engaged and ready to make your day represent the couple. He has a thorough and kind way of communicating to get to know you and the kind of music and energy you want to bring to your wedding day. Pete kept the energy of the night lively and was able to read the crowd on what songs would get them on the dance floor and keep everyone dancing til the very end! We handed over a few playlists and Pete filled in the gaps with crowd favorites. Pete will make sure the night goes how you want it to with timing, intros as low key or extravagant as you want. He can get an 8 year or and an 80 year old out on the dance floor. Pete is both thorough and thoughtful. He genuinely cares that your event represents you! I can’t give enough positive words on Pete!
If you are searching for a DJ to keep the party going and the guests on their feet, we would highly recommend Peter Wildermuth! From our first interaction to the end of our wedding, Pete’s passion for music and his ability to cater the lights and sounds of the event to our preferences made the entire experience a wonderful memory that we (and our guests) will always remember fondly. DJ Pete listened to our input on the music selection, added in some crowd favorites, and ensured that the sound and vibe for our wedding was top notch! Thank you Pete for adding such a wonderful soundtrack to our special day!
Pete was a phenomenal DJ. He made the effort to understand what sort of music we wanted for our wedding, did a great job at the wedding itself (our dance floor was packed!), and the whole time he did so with a friendly, genuinely caring attitude that was very much appreciated on our wedding day. We really lucked out getting such a perfect DJ, and I highly recommend him for any event.
DJ Pete was everything we hoped for in a wedding DJ! He was very responsive and supportive in our communications leading up to the wedding, taking our ideas and building on them. From our first conversations, we felt that Pete had everything under control. We appreciated how he kept the introductions and announcements simple during the reception. He played a variety of music that appealed to all ages, and kept the dance floor going all night! We received many compliments from our guests about the music. Pete also provided lighting for our reception tent that really elevated the ambiance. He even sent us a recording of the toasts the next day! We can't recommend DJ Pete enough!!
DJ Pete was fantastic. He was professional, communicative, and totally on top of everything. Probably the easiest vendor we worked with for our wedding. And of course he was a fantastic DJ and got everyone dancing for the whole evening. Would definitely recommend!
Words can’t describe how amazing Pete was for our wedding! Our event space was actually a music venue and he immediately adapted his normal process to accommodate our venue. He worked so well with the event staff to integrate his playlist to their lighting. He also followed our music requests and personalized the selection to us. He was so kind, responsive, and professional throughout the whole process. I would recommend him for any event and I hope to attend an event he’s the DJ at in the future!
DJ Pete was an amazing find for our day. He handled every aspect with professionalism and made our wedding exactly what we wanted. The uplighting was a great addition as well. If you're looking for an amazing DJ to cover your event, you can't go wrong with Pete.
DJ Pete was sooo amazing to work with! From how easy he made the planning process for us, his quick and helpful emails and ideas! I ended up sending him a few last minute changes day off and he responded right away and said "sounds good"! When I had arrived day of some decorations where still being set up so I went to start helping and he told me he would take care it, something not even close to being his job but still offered to help with other things. We can't thank Pete enough for everything and we are so glad we got to work with him!
We can't say enough good things about DJ Pete!
As a DJ, Pete really delivered. He played music through our cocktail hour and dinner then got everyone dancing. He seamlessly blended our somewhat eclectic music tastes with songs from his library. He even took a few requests from guests and incorporated them in a very natural way. Everyone was raving about the music and kept dancing as night went on!
And as a person and professional, Pete was exceptionally easy to work with both leading up to our wedding and on the day-of — he's an excellent communicator, very flexible, and truly took the extra care to make our wedding day special. He perfectly adapted and catered to our unconventional venue, had no issue with our intentional lack of a lot of reception traditions (first dances, announcements, speeches, etc.), and was even providing a helping hand to other vendors.
We're so lucky and glad we got to work with DJ Pete on our wedding day!
DJ Pete brought the party to our wedding! He kept everyone on the dancefloor and played music appealing to all ages; he was also a great emcee. You don't realize how important an emcee is for your wedding day! It's very, very important. Pete made essential announcements throughout the night, like our wedding party/bride/groom introductions, and he also made other announcements, like when our trolley was leaving and when the late-night snacks were coming out. Not only did Pete emcee and provide great music throughout the night, but he also provided lights for our reception room and a microphone/speakers for our ceremony. After our wedding, Pete provided us with a recording of our ceremony, which we didn't think we wanted at the time, but I think it'll be great to listen to years later. I highly recommend working with Pete! He was professional, friendly, and helped make our wedding so much fun! Thank you, Pete!
There’s no need to go looking for a wedding DJ, because Pete should be your guy! Pete DJ’d our wedding, but did a whole lot more than just provide a rocking dance floor. Pete is a master of all things audio and visual. He set up the ceremony space (outside on a windy day with no audio issues), up lighting for the dance floor and our photo wall, and there is no one better to get your guests up and moving than him. He made the planning so easy for us, and we will be forever grateful for the work that he put in to make our night magical. HIRE PETE FOR YOUR WEDDING! You won’t be disappointed!
We used Pete for our wedding on June17th, 2023. Working with Pete was fabulous! He was easy to communicate with, was thorough and detail oriented, and was very go with he flow! he accommodated our last minute changes and everything went perfect on our special day!
We chose DJ Pete because we didn't want to work through a DJ service. Pete seemed professional and experienced. At our first meeting, we could tell that he was the right choice because he was friendly, accommodating, and told us that getting people up to dance was his specialty! One of my husband's main priorities for the wedding was dancing, so this hooked us immediately. He offers recordings of the ceremony, as well as the toast speeches. In addition, he provides uplighting for the dance floor and during the reception. I recommend this service because his lighting makes the dance space look inviting and fun.
I cannot speak enough to Pete's responsiveness and attentiveness. He edited our first dance song and was able to cut it to our desired length within 2 days of my email request. He helped us create a timeline for the day's events and discussed in detail the way he would make announcements, and say our names and the names of our family members. In the week leading up to our wedding, I emailed and texted him with several updates and announcements I wanted him to make. He took note of each and made every announcement as we requested.
The day of the wedding was a blast. The ceremony music was well timed, our entrances were fun, our first dance went seamlessly, and everyone hit the dance floor! Our guests loved DJ Pete, and his music was perfectly tailored to our crowd and our tastes, based on the form we provided him. There was overall a good mix of music that everyone enjoyed. He set up and took down all of his own equipment.
Pete was a pleasure to work with. Professional, friendly, and great at what he does.
Pete was awesome to work with. He responded to emails quickly and was very easy to work with! He helped with song suggestions when it was needed. Everyone had a great time and danced the night away. Would highly recommend Pete for your wedding. You will not be disappointed!
Pete is my absolute favorite person!! We hired him for our wedding in November and since our first contact he was just so sweet and accommodating and wanted to do anything he could to make our special day the best possible. He came with a glowing recommendation from my sister (whose an event planner) because of how well he listens and caters to what the clients want and also how early and prepared he arrives to every single event. He was so communicative beforehand and has a form that you fill out that really helps him get a feel for you and what you like and did awesome building a playlist off that for the whole night.
And if you're booking with Pete, get the extra lighting package!! I had no idea how much lighting could change a space until I saw it. He literally created a backlight color for the whole room based off our decor and it just tied the whole space together in the most amazing way. And once dancing began, the light effects definitely help get the party going.
Pete added such a sweet, calm, but also upbeat vibe to our day and did so well to keep things moving smoothly throughout the night and getting people on the dancefloor and keeping me and my husband happy and having the night of our lives!! Pete's just the best and I would recommend him 100x over!!
Pete was the absolute best! He was our DJ for our wedding this past December and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. He made the process so simple, was very reasonably priced, really listened to what we wanted, and played amazing music throughout the night! We got so many compliments from all of our guest about the amazing music we had. I would recommend him to anyone looking to plan their wedding or event!
DJ Pete was AMAZING. He was kind, funny, and followed exactly the music we wanted. He was quick to respond to emails, and he made the process very simple for us. We are not hard-core partiers, but we wanted fun music people could dance to in the eras that we wanted to. And we got exactly that.
100% would recommend!
It has been almost two weeks since our wedding, and we still can't stop talking about how amazing DJ Pete was. From our very first conversation with Pete we knew that he would understand our vision for the wedding. My husband and I are very into music and that is a huge part of our relationship, so we were pretty picky when it came to hiring a DJ haha. But Pete stepped up to the plate and exceeded all our expectations. He was extremely responsive throughout the whole process and it was great to finally meet him in person on the day. He is such a warm presence and helped relieve any stress we may have had. The sound from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception was perfect. We had a very windy outdoor ceremony and the sound was crystal clear. We could be heard perfectly over the microphone. And this was no different for the speeches during dinner. The music was top notch! Once the cake was cut I don't think I left the dance floor once! He listened to exactly what we wanted and we had an amazing time. Do yourself a favor and hire Pete, you won't regret it!
Pete was absolutely amazing!! Super responsive and easy to work with. I threw some last minute requests at him and he was very adaptable and made the night an even more amazing celebration. Would DEFINITELY work with him again!
Pete was so professional and really got the wedding guests excited at the appropriate times! He also played my requested songs at the perfect intervals. Grateful for DJ pete!
Hiring DJ Pete was one of the best choices that my now-husband and I made for our wedding day. Believe the glowing reviews. On a personal level: he's kind, very likable and overall just a friendly, warm presence on a hectic day. On a professional level: he is an expert. He was receptive to our ideas and made them better. The music at our reception was perfect. We are both fairly low-key people and wanted to create a fun atmosphere without leaning heavily on cheesy hits or overly hype-y music/commentary. DJ Pete nailed it. Everyone was dancing and the night felt like a real reflection of us. His supplementary lighting was also very cool, and the sound was crystal clear for the ceremony/toasts. And, within days, he sent us an audio file of our ceremony- which we didn't even know we needed (but are so glad to have.) Thanks again for being one of the best parts of our wedding day!
Pete was a consummate professional! Communication throughout was easy, fun, productive and reassuring. He received our feedback excellently, and added a nice personal touch while always remaining in tune with our vision and tastes.
Pete was awesome through this whole process! He made it super easy to reschedule when we had to postpone due to COVID. He integrated Portuguese music into the playlist which was amazing because he really got everyone dancing (including my older relatives!) Would highly recommend Pete!
Pete was awesome to work with and such a lovely and professional DJ! He’s a very nice man who was super accommodating and interested in the whole vibe and atmosphere of our event which led to a really fun time!! Easy to communicate with, affordable, great website, provides his own equipment and mics (and special lighting!!) and just a cool dude who is willing to make your event special. Very helpful with music choices for our ceremony too. Brings great energy. Thank you Pete!
DJ Pete is amazing, we are so grateful to have had him as our wedding DJ! I initially had a difficult time finding a DJ that I liked, but from the moment I spoke with Pete I knew he would be a perfect fit. He understood our vision to have a fun, energetic party without too many gimmicks. Pete has a clear talent for music and picked the perfect songs to keep the party going all night. So many people commented on how great the music and the energy was, as Pete seamlessly transitioned the style of music from the ceremony to the cocktail hour to dinner to dancing. He was accommodating to all our requests and kept us in the loop with anything we needed to know throughout the night. Also, Pete is just a great guy, he truly wants the best for you and does everything he can to make it happen. He showed up early to prepare his equipment and handled everything flawlessly through the end of the night. The dance floor was crowded and stayed that way the whole night thanks to Pete! We are so thankful that we found him and hired him for our wedding.
DJ Pete is the best! We are so happy he was part of our wedding day this past weekend at The Red Barn. He was incredibly easy to work with, accommodating to all of our requests and just so darn nice. He even helped us pack up all our decorations at the end of the night!! We gave Pete a sense for what we wanted and he took that inspiration and ran with it. Our dance floor was filled pretty much all night. I would recommend Pete to anyone looking to work with a great person and DJ for their event!!
We feel so blessed and are so grateful that Pete were there to man the show. He absolutely nailed it! Pete got us, understood our vision. We could feel the love that he has for his work. We could see all the time, thought, and energy that he puts into it. He absolutely made our wedding so personalized and unique.
Pete was gracious and understanding with any changes. He set up mics for our niece and her boyfriend to play guitar and sing during the ceremony. He then sent us an audio of the ceremony within a week! He was lovingly tolerant of the many children and censored their many requests.
The lighting was perfect for our huge tent in the middle of a field. He is so talented, passionate and professional with all the services that he has to offer.
I'm also so very thankful for all the help and guidance which led up to the event. It was so kind that he took the time to chat and walk us through our decision making. "DJ Pete" will forever be a part of our story!
We just had Pete help us celebrate our special day. He was fantastic to work with and we cannot recommend him enough. He was very in tune with our music choices and we were so happy we chose him for our DJ. Not only was the day amazing, but he also got us a recording of the ceremony the next day, allowing us to re-live our beautiful day the following night. Pete is an amazing DJ and the right choice for any couple.
Pete was wonderful! He really listened to what my husband and I wanted and the environment that we wanted to set. He was accommodating of some specific songs and start points that we wanted and helped me keep my processional song a surprise for the groom! He helped to drive the schedule of the night which was greatly appreciated as we were a backyard wedding, and he was flexible which was great since it was a rainy day and we had to transition the ceremony location the day of. Perhaps the best part was that he picked up on the general love of LOTR in the group and played music from the movies during dinner! We loved how well he read the room and adjusted the music. I would definitely recommend him!
DJ Pete did an awesome job supporting our wedding event in August 2021. He was responsive from the start, easy to work with, did a great job on setting up the lights for our venue and DJ’ing the event. He did a great job of playing a variety of music from our play list and kept the crowd on the dance floor. We would highly recommend him.
We cannot say enough good things about Pete. From our initial communications, he was so friendly and responsive. We had a very organized sheet with fill out which really helped us think of all the special touches for the big day. We had a zoom with him to prepare and he really made sure to clarify everything so he could nail it on our big day and he did! Pete audio recorded the ceremony which is something we will always treasure. He added so many touches that really set the tone for the reception. Even during dinner, we heard so many songs we loved. It was very clear he looked at our music selections and choose dinner music just for us. He coordinated the uplighting to match our venue and it looked amazing. Pete is genuine and just a wonderful person to work with! I really wish I could give him more than 5 stars! You will not be disappointed!
DJ Pete went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. He personalized our playlist throughout the entire wedding and really listened to what we asked for. Thank you DJ Pete!
DJ Pete was amazing at our Wedding chose relevant songs to have dinner to and to dance to. He made accommodations for me that I was very pleased with. He even stayed and hung out with my husband and a family friend of ours chatting about local history, truly great DJ
We hired Pete for our wedding and were extremely happy with his DJ services! He's very friendly and personable; communication was top notch. Everyone was raving about the music at the reception. Announcements were on point, and he provided a microphone that projected well without any issues. He's an audio professional and it really showed; the music was loud without overpowering the entire room. It really was an A+ job well done! We'd definitely hire Pete again.
We chose Pete to be the DJ for our wedding at Quonquont farm and I would highly recommend him to other brides! He did a great job at getting my family and friends out on the dance floor even though they are not usually big dancers! When looking for a DJ I knew that I didn't want a DJ that would be annoying on the microphone throughout the reception but you do not need to worry about that with Pete. He lets his knowledge of music do all the work and he is very friendly and professional! He also set up speakers for our ceremony and the sound quality was excellent. Would definitely choose him again!
DJ Pete was great! He was responsive, thorough, punctual, and played jams that went right along with the theme we had provided.
Very friendly and accommodating, was punctual and did a great job with the music! Thank you so much for helping to make my wedding great!
We highly recommend DJ Pete Wildermuth! Pete was the DJ for our outdoor wedding, both the ceremony and reception, and did a fantastic job. He did a flawless job transitioning the music for the ceremony, had a great variety during the cocktail hour, and kept the dance floor full during the reception. We had several guests tell us how great our DJ was! Additionally, Pete was very responsive leading up to the wedding and arrived early day-of. We can’t recommend Pete enough!
I highly recommend hiring Pete for your upcoming event. A few key points about Pete:
1. He is very responsive to emails and phone calls and even proactively followed up with reminders, etc.
2. He did a site visit with us months before the wedding to fully understand the acoustic and lighting needs for the outdoor ceremony and indoor dance floor areas. He nailed this on our wedding day.
3. When questions came up or decisions needed to be made with the venue, Pete was there with suggestions and ready to participate.
4. He gladly accepted our music requests and suggestions. He flawlessly executed playing key songs post-ceremony, first dance, last dance - no glitches.
5. We provided him with more than enough songs for the 3 hours of dancing. He was a true professional and read the crowd perfectly keeping the dance floor moving for 3 HOURS! No lags, no awkward moments, just pure dance fun.
6. The recordings he provides of the ceremony and toasts are priceless. I’ve listened to them a few times already and it’s only 2 weeks post-wedding.
7. He took care of all logistics for his equipment, set-up, removal. We really did not know he was there doing this behind the scenes.
8. Last thing - he’s are really nice guy! Easy to work with, no drama, no crazy DJ/MC antics. Aside from keeping the dance floor going for 3 hours, this is really important.
I could go on but contact Pete and see for yourself.
Pete was fantastic and we couldn't recommend him more! He made planning easy by having us fill out a sheet with our timeline, the songs we wanted for specific moments in the evening, and the type of music we like. Communicating with him was easy and he was very responsive over email. On the day of the wedding he arrived early to set up and check that everything was working perfectly. Pete also did the lighting and we were thrilled with the results! He created a perfect amber glow that provided some sunshine during our indoor ceremony on a grey rainy day, and later changed the vibe for the dancing. Pete made sure to learn to correctly pronounce everyone's names and was extremely accommodating with a last minute request to incorporate foreign songs. He immediately put us at ease with his friendly down to earth personality, but is also very professional and provided great sound quality for the ceremony and reception. Most importantly, Pete's music choices were spot on! He really understood what we like and played the music we love while also mixing in fun songs to get everyone dancing.
Pete was an amazing DJ! He was extremely accommodating to type of music we wanted played at our wedding! People were dancing all night, which is exactly what we wanted. He knows what he’s doing and is very good at it. He was very professional towards our guests when they were making song request. I highly recommended Pete and won’t hesitate to hire him again
Me and my wife hired Pete after speaking with him on the phone a few times and feeling comfortable that he was going to be able to deal with our unique music preferences. We were hoping to have the music be more in line with our tastes rather than the typical music you hear at weddings, and Pete was more than happy to help. Pete showed up earlier than expected in order to get the outdoor ceremony speakers set up and situated so that we could get our first look and family photos completed without any background interference. The music during the ceremony was great and his speaker system sounded amazing. He even recorded the ceremony so we could listen later, which will definitely come in handy.
We gave Pete a list of a few songs we wanted to hear at various points throughout the night, and asked him to fill in the remaining time with more traditional songs he thought would work well with the vibe we wanted. Pete killed it! He made great transitions from songs we requested to other music, to the point where I couldn't remember if the song he was playing was something I had asked him to play. He even found a live version of a song by the artist Borns that we liked better than the studio version so we could have for our first dance. Pete seamlessly took requests and then used those requests to complete the playlist. Both me and my wife loved the music and our friends and family had a blast dancing to some of the songs he played. Throughout the whole process Pete was a calming presence and at no point did I feel like I had to stress about the music or the role he played. We would hire Pete again if we could.
Pete was the DJ for our outdoor wedding and I can't say enough about him! Our guests keep talking about how great the music was. We got married in a park and I wasn't sure about how a dance party would go over but boy did it happen! Pete really read the crowd and played music that kept everyone dancing throughout the night. He checked in with us to make sure we were happy with how things were going, and he even covered for me when I messed up my parents' wedding song! Pete is very easy to communicate with and down to earth. I recommend Pete 100%!
