DJ Polo Brown was the best DJ and MC we could’ve picked for our wedding. We wanted a good blend of Latin and American music and DJ Polo Brown specializes in just that. He was also able to do a great mash up for our separate entrances of the parents, bridal party and my husband and myself. Great voice, very professional, we didn’t have to worry about a thing!

Any questions?
DJ Brown was absolutely amazing! He showed such wonderful professionalism, and kindness during the entire wedding process. He was great with communication, easy to work with, and very accommodating. He was able to read the energy of the room and make any musical adjustments to fit the vibes. The only thing I would have changed is adding the fog machine!

**DJ Polo Brown Review for Susan and James Mitchell's Wedding – Appomattox, VA**
We had the absolute pleasure of attending Susan and James Mitchell's wedding yesterday, and I have to say, DJ Polo Brown truly made it an unforgettable event! From the moment the reception started, he was on point. He seamlessly took song requests from the crowd, playing everything we asked for without missing a beat, while still keeping the flow of the evening going strong. It was amazing how he catered to all the different tastes in music, ensuring everyone had a great time.
The energy on the dance floor never faded, and that’s all thanks to DJ Polo Brown! He knew exactly when to ramp things up and when to slow it down, reading the room perfectly. His transitions between songs were smooth, and his music selection kept the party alive all night long. The mix of classics, modern hits, and special requests really showed his versatility and skill as a DJ.
Not only did he deliver an amazing performance, but he was also a true professional throughout. From coordinating with the wedding party to making sure everything stayed on schedule, he handled it all with ease. His setup was clean and professional, and he was fully engaged with the crowd, creating a fun and welcoming atmosphere. If you're looking for a DJ who can take your event to the next level, DJ Polo Brown is the one!

My wife and I had the pleasure of having Joshua Brown as the DJ for our wedding on April 11, 2024, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the first meeting to the final song of the night, Joshua was professional, attentive, and truly invested in making our day special.
He took the time to understand our music preferences and seamlessly blended our favorite tracks with crowd-pleasers that had everyone on the dance floor all night long. Joshua’s ability to read the room was impressive—he knew exactly when to slow things down and when to pick up the pace to keep the energy high.
Beyond just playing great music, Joshua was a fantastic MC. He kept our guests informed and engaged without ever being overbearing. The transitions between events, like our first dance and speeches, were smooth and well-timed.
We also appreciated how organized and punctual he was, which helped ease any stress on our big day. Joshua went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding reception was memorable and fun for everyone involved.
We received so many compliments from our guests about how much fun they had, and we owe much of that to Joshua. If you’re looking for a DJ who is professional, talented, and genuinely cares about your event, we highly recommend Joshua Brown!"

We were beyond impressed with Joshua Brown as the DJ for our wedding! From the moment we reached out, he was easy to work with, organized, and full of great ideas. He took the time to really understand the vibe we were going for and made sure every musical detail matched perfectly with our vision for the day.
On the wedding day, Joshua's energy and enthusiasm were contagious. He created an amazing atmosphere, blending our favorite songs with tracks that had everyone, young and old, on the dance floor. The way he seamlessly transitioned between moments like our first dance, speeches, and the party afterward was flawless.
What stood out the most was how Joshua made the evening feel so personalized. It wasn’t just a typical wedding playlist—he made sure it reflected us, and that made it even more special. Joshua didn’t just play music, he helped make our wedding an unforgettable experience.
I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ who’s more than just a button-pusher—Joshua truly cares about making your event perfect. Thanks again, Joshua, for an incredible night!

Do NOT hire this DJ!!!!
We hired DJ Polo Brown for our 9/7/2024 wedding in Virginia. Our experience with DJ Polo Brown started out normal, Joshua was very accommodating and receptive to our needs. We gave him a timeline, list of songs to play, and even links to the correct songs for our ceremony. The morning of the wedding, Joshua let us know that it would be a different DJ that would be coming out to our wedding instead, and that he had all the necessary information. Long story short, he did not.
For our ceremony, this new DJ, Teddy, who is affiliated with DJ Polo Brown, was going to play RANDOM SONGS FROM BRIDGERTON. We picked out 4 very specific and sentimental songs for our ceremony, and he literally played whatever he felt like untiI I (the bride) texted him seconds before I walked out so that he would play the right song. He played This Love by Taylor Swift for my bridal party instead of Simply The Best, I truly cannot imagine what compelled him to just pick a random song instead of asking what the couple wanted. The ceremony processional was the most important part of my wedding to me, it's my favorite part, and it was completely botched.
During the reception, he had no idea of the timeline. He had to ask our maid of honor what our last name was right before we had our grand entrance. He consistently disappeared from the reception (to smoke weed at our venue), so we could not skip songs. He played WAP while my grandmother was RIGHT THERE, and disappeared so we couldn't change the highly inappropriate song choice!!
We wanted a calm, country vibe for the beginning of the night, and he started the dinner out with Yummy by Justin Bieber. It was like they didn't look at any of the info I sent over.
Of course at the end of the day our wedding was a beautiful day and not even a messy DJ could ruin it completely. That said, we do not recommend DJ Polo Brown for ANY weddings after the experience at ours.
Response from the Vendor on 09/17/2024
Thank you for your feedback, and I want to extend my sincerest apologies for the issues you encountered with our service on your wedding day. I am deeply sorry for the distress and frustration that resulted from the experience, especially durin...
g such an important occasion.
It’s clear that the situation with DJ Teddy did not meet your expectations or our standards of professionalism. The miscommunication regarding your ceremony music and the handling of your playlist were unacceptable, and I regret that we did not deliver the seamless experience you deserved.
The issues you described, including the DJ's unprofessional behavior and inappropriate song choices, are deeply concerning. This is not the level of service I strive to provide, and I am taking immediate steps to address these concerns with DJ Teddy to prevent any future occurrences.
I understand how vital the ceremony and reception were to you, and it is disappointing to hear that we fell short in these areas. I am committed to making this right and would like to discuss further how we can address the situation and provide some form of restitution.
Again, I am truly sorry for the inconvenience and disappointment this has caused. Please feel free to reach out to me directly so we can discuss how best to move forward.
Thank you for bringing these issues to my attention.
Sincerely,
Joshua Brown
