DJ Rome 802 is hands down the best DJ ever!! We got married in September at Burke Mountain VT. From the moment we first reached out to Jerome, he was responsive and professional and we knew he was exactly the one to help us create the perfect wedding day.
Jerome worked directly with the venue to ensure an easy day for everyone involved. This saved us from any unnecessary stress because he was on top of everything the whole time. He came out a day early for the wedding and spent the night at the resort to ensure he had plenty of time the day of the event to set up and wasn’t late for any reason. The transition from one event to the next was seamless, despite having to move from the top of the mountain and back into the resort for cocktail hour and the reception.
The reception was absolutely perfect. We had a few announcements and special dances we wanted and Jerome was great every step of the way. I’ve never seen a DJ do such a good job at getting everyone out onto the dance floor all night long. He had 93 year old grandmothers out there dancing to “Get Low” by Lil Jon and everyone in between. There was never a quiet moment and everyone really enjoyed it. He did a great job at reading the room and playing a great mix of songs that catered to all age groups and dancing styles.
The Photo Booth was set up in the perfect spot right near the bar, ensuring that everyone saw it and was able to sign the book he left for us. He was so interactive with all the guests, which made for a really fun experience for everyone! He took some awesome pictures in the Photo Booth with one of my little cousins who befriended him instantly. He wouldn’t leave his side all night and it’s such a great memory to have. It’s been weeks and he still asks how his DJ friend is doing every time I see him.
Overall, we have received so many comments from guests on how much they loved the DJ. Everything about working with him was a great experience and I’m already ready to hire him again. He is such a genuine person who truly wanted to be there celebrating with us. Thank you Jerome for everything!
Jerome was amazing to work with! He was extremely flexible with music selection and requests throughout the night and was amazing at feeling out the crowd to decide what to play next from our playlist. Jerome also went the extra mile for us and provided sound and mic support for the band and officiant throughout the entire day before he took over. We highly recommended Jerome and couldn’t have asked for a better person to DJ our wedding. Thanks again!!!!!
We LOVED having DJ Rome at our wedding! Everything ran SO smoothly from the ceremony to the dance floor! Highly recommend!!
DJ Rome was the perfect choice for our wedding! He read the room extremely well, and his music selections were all spot on. The dance floor was packed all night! He listened to a wide variety of requests including those from children, which really made their night. Jerome played some line dances to get people dancing but he wasn't cheesy at all, which is a very hard balance to strike. In addition, he was a very kind person to work with leading up to the wedding. We got so many compliments on the music and the party, all thanks to Jerome! We would recommend him to anyone having a Vermont wedding.
DJ Rome helped make our wedding so incredible! The photo booth was a hit with our guests and he kept us on the dance floor all night! All of our song requests were met and he made sure he fully understand the vibe of our crowd and us.
DJ Rome was the perfect choice for our wedding. He truly listened to our music requests and gave us a reception that fit our event perfectly! We made some last minute changes to the schedule of events day-of and he rolled with the punches, quickly shifting gears and keeping the night running smoothly. He even helped with some surprises, like the secret song I sang to my husband during our vows, which Jerome supplied extra equipment for. We are so glad we chose Jerome as our wedding DJ! I'd recommend his services to anyone.
From the beginning Jay AKA DJ Rome was a constant professional. He communicated with us through his website, phone call, and in person to make sure he knew what we were looking for. His music choices matched the energy of the room every time. His song cues for during the ceremony and all of the first dances were right on point. He kept the atmosphere of the dance floor high energy and nonstop fun. We highly recommend Jay for your next event or celebration.
DJ Rome was awesome, he worked with me on the vision I had for the wedding and worked with my last minute changes. He was there for us the whole day, followed through amazing with the lighting and worked great with my other vendors. He killed it and kept my friends and family dancing into the late night after party.
DJ Rome was an absolute pleasure to work with! He made the process very easy for us, and was extremely attentive to our wants and needs, as they pertained to our wedding. The audio services provided for the ceremony, as well as the curated playlists, for the reception, everything was amazing
DJ Rome was the BEST! He was responsive, easy to talk to, and took the time to understand the vibe we wanted for our reception. I’ve been asked countless times for his information from other couples. THE BEST DJ! Definitely book!
DJ Rome was wonderful to work with for our November wedding. He is an absolutely incredible DJ -- the dance floor was packed the entire night and he really was able to mash up my and my husband's music tastes (which are VERY varied and different) and craft a perfect mix that everyone loved.
Our guests absolutely loved him, and loved the photobooth too! Thanks for everything, DJ Rome!
We had DJ Ray Hill fill in for DJ Rome 802 at our wedding, and he was awesome! Our venue was all outdoors, with separate ceremony and reception spaces, and DJ Ray Hill totally nailed it when it came to setting up the portable speakers and mic for our ceremony, and then dealing with the generator setup in the reception tent. The sound quality was great, and the song changes and transitions were perfectly timed. DJ Ray Hill was very well prepared, followed our ideas and suggestions for the music we wanted to hear, and threw a great dance party for us! Thank you, DJ Ray Hill!
DJ Rome did an outstanding job with our small, non-traditional wedding day vision. We wanted to keep the day simple and minimize the typical wedding traditions and cheesy announcements, which he completely respected. He effortlessly blended into the background and delivered us the dinner-party vibe turned party that we were looking for.
During the planning stage, he was responsive and pleasant to work with. On our wedding day, he made sure our ceremony music was right on cue and cut at exactly the right spots. He blended our favorite tunes tastefully during cocktail hour and dinner to set the mood for guest conversation. When it was time to hit the dance floor, he turned it up and kept us and all our friends dancing all night long (and on a Thursday!). I would highly recommend DJ Rome to anyone.
DJ Rome was fantastic at our wedding! He was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire planning process. He played the best music and kept the dance floor full all night long! The photobooth was a hit as well. He was incredibly professional and we are so glad we had him, 10/10 would hire him again!!
DJ Rome was cordial and a fantastic DJ on our wedding day. From our initial zoom call to all the emails in between I was confident that DJ Rome was the right decision for us. He is very quick to respond to your emails and has a detailed list for inputting all of your favorite tunes and particular dance songs. Everyone was dancing and having a fantastic time! Would highly recommend his professional services!
DJ Rome was very thorough meeting with us ahead of time and making sure he had everything he needed for day of. He also worked with me to surprise my husband and everything went smoothly. He went above and beyond for us. We appreciate you!
Dj Rome was the best! From the pre-wedding organization to the actual day of, he was so calm, organized and kind. We had an awesome time on the dance floor and I will be recommending him to anyone I can! He will be our first choice any time we need a DJ.
We love DJ Rome! He met with us on zoom twice before our wedding, and made us feel us heard and reassured. The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were all perfect. We definitely recommend this DJ!
We hired DJ Rome for our July 2022 wedding and are so glad we did! We knew from our first Zoom meeting that we were in good hands, and at every touch point from there he was incredibly thorough and organized. He completely nailed the music for our reception and our guests are still talking about it! We also added on the photo booth which was definitely a hit! Highly recommend working with him!

Jerome was awesome for our wedding! He kept everyone on the dance floor all night and played great music! He stuck to the music we wanted and was so flexible with last minute changes.
DJ Rome canceled on us 2 weeks before our wedding even though we booked him 3 years ago and kept him updated (and he confirmed) on our new wedding date when it was postponed due to COVID. After confirming the new wedding date, we did not hear from him and when we reached out again, he didn't respond until 2 weeks before our wedding saying that he had "unexpected travel" and pedalled some unknown person to us saying that was our new "lead DJ". We had never heard of this person, we didn't agree to it, and the price was the same. This is horrible and we are heartbroken and we are now scouring to find a new, reputable DJ 2 weeks before our wedding...
I had the pleasure of working with DJ Rome for my wedding over Memorial Day weekend. He played all the hit songs and EVERYONE was on the dance floor. He was kind, professional & very fun to work with! Would 100% recommend!
DJ Rome 802 is amazing! We really enjoyed how much he helped us and took time to get to know us. He quickly became a top choice because of the connection he took the time to create with us. Planning with him he was very responsive, respectful and organized. Our wedding day flowed so great and he made sure the dancefloor was never empty. His phot booth was an absolute hit! Someone always utilizing it! We loved looking at all of the pictures and will treasure the photo guest book! He will have a special place in our hearts for a lifetime!
We hired DJ Rome to do the Winterball for my university. Being a college student and a lead point person for vendors was stressful, but DJ Rome was there to answer all of my questions and he made the process stress free. If you want your music and photo booth to be fun and stress free hire him! He is professional, easy going, entertaining, and accommodating. Cannot wait to plan more events with him both for our university and for myself.
DJ Rome was amazing to work with! We had several meetings leading up to the wedding to go over our vision/vibe for the night and he played all the songs we were hoping for! We even asked him to announce our wedding party like they were being announced as the Boston Bruins starting line up and he completely nailed it!! (it was the one and only thing my groom asked for). DJ Rome was also able to mic up my officiant and worked with my bridesmaid to provide audio connection for a surprise video we played during my father/daughter dance. He made everything seamless and we didn't have to worry about a thing. Thank you DJ Rome getting everyone out on the dance floor and keeping the party going all night!
We hired Jerome for our winter wedding and we could be happier. He made the booking process easy and we really appreciated him checking in to see how the planning process was going. Dancing and music was very important to us and Jerome really came through. The dance floor was rocking and we danced our butts off. He also did an awesome job with lighting that really added to the experience and vibe.
Jerome also did the photo booth for your wedding. It was an awesome set up and so much fun. We were especially excited to receive copies of all the pictures in a book as well as digital copies.
We highly recommend Jerome and we will most definitely be hiring him again.
We had the best experience! DJ Rome was able to help us with our ceremony and our reception, provided the perfect party style lighting, and brought a photo booth which had everyone laughing and provided the best keepsake! He was thoughtful and flexible throughout the entire process, we can't imagine our special day without him, we highly recommend DJ Rome!
Hire DJ Rome! He was amazing to work with! From the first time I reached out to inquire about his services he was very responsive and very flexible in working with the different packages and timelines of the day! I got married at Mountain Top Inn and our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were all in different locations. He handled this with ease!
Leading up to the wedding he made sure he had all the details and had a call with us to go over everything. All we wanted was for a big party and our guests were on the dance floor all night!!
DJ Rome was awesome for our wedding! He kept everyone dancing and was a great read of the crowd. He also lit up the entire venue beautifully with up lighting and made everything look perfect. We are so happy we were able to have him for our wedding!
Hotel Saranac had the pleasure of hosting a wedding yesterday and Jerome came here for his first time and rocked the house! He was professional and organized. It is amazing to work alongside another amazing vendor to create an incredible night for an amazing couple! His photo booth was a huge hit too!! We hope to work more with him in the future!!
I had the privilege to work with DJ Rome for the first time for a Winter Wonderland Wedding in Vermont! Before the event he was responsive and attentive. Day of he showed up early, was flexible, accommodating, and so easy to work with. He definitely brought the party! As a wedding planner I would definitely recommend DJ Rome!
Please save yourself from heartache and regret. We had two phone calls with Jerome leading up to our event where we discussed the genres of music we enjoyed, the schedule of events, and do- and don't-play songs. He seemed very thorough and he gave us the illusion that we would be taken care of. Almost immediately after our ceremony, Jerome made it clear to us that he was not as competent or prepared. Our event coordinator came to us right before our bridal party's reception entrance asking us to write down the names and the order of announcement of our bridal party. We had already given him this information twice. Even after we provided the information again, he failed to introduce my parents, he called our bridal party members by the wrong names, and ultimately did not announce our newly shared last name but rather some unintelligible mumble. During my wife's first dance with her father, he cut the song short even though he explicitly suggested that we don't cut the dances short! Jerome had our schedule and was responsible for moving the night along. However, he did not keep the night flowing and our other vendors had to coordinate the start of the speeches by getting the microphone from Jerome, despite it not being their responsibility. We had to ask Jerome twice to open the dance floor and start the reception music. Once he did, he immediately started playing songs that were not in line with our expectations. We sent many people to him throughout the first 30 minutes of music to try to get him back on track, including friends, family, vendors, and his own photo booth attendant. He shrugged, made comments under his breath, and continued playing whatever he wanted. When he played songs that were on our list, he interrupted them by harassing our guests and my wife. He called one of the bridesmaids "thick" and kept restarting "Mr. Brightside", my wife's favorite song, telling her that he wouldn't play it until she twerked. It was inappropriate, and the security at our venue filed a report citing “an incident occurred resulting in negligence in services provided and harassment of individuals in the Lieb & Mulvihill Wedding Party". Jerome frequently started songs over. Additionally, there were many frustrating moments when a song was climaxing and he switched songs right before the "drop". The final straw was when Jerome stopped playing music altogether and murmured nonsense into the microphone. At this point, we knew that Jerome was under the influence of something. Our venue's event coordinator removed Jerome from the stage and brought him into a separate room where he was questioned by venue security and deemed too incapacitated to leave. If this sounds dishonest, I implore you to verify with the Lodge at Spruce Peak's security department. Jerome left us with no music during our wedding reception while he slept off his drug-fueled come-down. After my wife left a similar review for DJ Rome 802, he texted her acknowledging what an awful job he had done. He said "I received some bad news the night before and I messed up by trying to drink it away". He let personal problems get in the way of the most important day of our life and we don't want anyone else to ever experience what we experienced. He has given us a full refund. However, a refund does not make up for the stress and trauma he caused and the bad memories he created in a day that should have only consisted of great ones. DO NOT HIRE DJ ROME - it is not worth the risk.
DJ Rome was amazing! Would 100% recommend him for your big day. Super professional and quick to respond. He knows how to get a party started! Our guests loved his music!
#CovidWedding in upstate NY. We hired Rome for our perfect day well before the pandemic hit. We chose him because , no offense to the other DJs in the area but Rome is the only DJ in the area that's not 1 dimensional. We are party people and listen to ALL types of music. After tons of research we found that Rome was the only DJ for us. We had a huge party planned but unfortunately mandates forced us to cut it down big time. Rome rolled with the punches and still made the day PERFECT. Besides those challenges we had an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception, a huge list of do NOT plays and tons of MUST plays. Rome ran the show to perfection, mixing everything timely and smoothly. After leaving a lasting impression with all our guest we are 100% planning on a huge bash when things calm down with Covid and plan on DJ Rome being there!
DJ Rome was INCREDIBLE. He was very communicative and detail oriented to make sure our day went smoothly. He took the lead and ran the night perfectly. He knew exactly how to get the crowd up and going. The dance floor was packed all night. DJ Rome even came out and joined us for a song when invited! He played every genre so everyone at the party was pleased. Have DJ Rome at your event and you will not only have an amazing time but you will make a lifelong friend.
DJ Rome was better than I could have ever imagined a DJ could be for our September wedding. From the beginning he was easy to work with, asked for our opinion to perfect the playlists, and was flexible enough to incorporate a surprise happy birthday during our reception. He had people dancing the entire night, from reception to after party. He knows how to alter playlists for the type of party and crowd. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience with one of the most important vendors of a wedding night - would recommend him to ANYONE!
PS. Rent the photo booth!!! We were laughing and having fun with the props all night, and Rome’s team gifts an amazing book with the photos taken, what a thoughtful touch
I’m sure you’re shocked to see this one star review in a sea of five star reviews. That’s just a fraction of the shock we felt on our wedding day with DJ Rome. We booked him because he had all incredible reviews and was recommended by other vendors we trusted.
I walked into the day with zero concerns about him after his intensive planning process and friendly phone calls but that very, very quickly changed. Our venue and other vendors soon realized during set up that he was behaving strangely, possibly under the influence of something, and not at all prepared for our wedding. He did not have our in-depth plan and our venue coordinator had to get our walk out lineup for the reception from me last minute. When we were introduced at our reception he announced us with a completely different last name. The schedule for the night and the playlists that we impeccably planned and discussed were completely ignored. This was very clear to us as the dancing began and we had MULTIPLE people from our bridal party, our other vendors, and even his own assistant for the photo booth go up to him and ask him to play our requested songs and stop harassing guests in the microphone but it was repeatedly not followed. During the reception he began making inappropriate comments to the guests and interrupting songs. He called one of my bridesmaids who made a request “thick” over the mic. He asked me (the bride) to twerk before he would play a song, he asked guests to cheer if they thought I was the hottest girl on the dance floor. All in all, extremely inappropriate. He would frequently stop songs and switch to different ones at times that don’t make sense (who would ever want Shout to be stopped mid “a little bit softer now” for Bad Romance??) I think he only played two of our requested songs. Our vendors who had worked with him in the past agreed this was not his typical style and something was wrong and we were right to be upset. Our bridal party continuously asked him to put on songs that we requested and stood with him as he seemed to aimlessly scroll on his computer before playing a completely different song. This is when it became abundantly clear that he was incapacitated. At one point he stopped playing music completely, babbling incoherently into the microphone and was asked by our wedding venue to leave and security got involved. An incident report was filed by security at Spruce Peak in which they note “an incident occurred resulting in negligence in services provided and harassment of individuals in the Lieb & Mulvihill Wedding Party”. In short, he ruined our wedding reception.
There were multiple other details that were not achieved as well, like cutting the parents dances short when he was the one who suggested we play the full songs, having only 4 of the 12 of the uplights that we paid for (and them initially being the wrong color), having an incorrect date on our photo booth prints (June 16, 2031? vs our date of December 11, 2021 - Not even an understandable mistake). All in all nothing he did was at all reflective of his other positive reviews and left a huge damper on our wedding day that was only recovered thanks to our amazing family and friends. He gave us a full refund but no amount of money can ever make up for a ruined wedding reception that we will never get back. There is absolutely no excuse for what happened on our wedding day. Save yourself a massive headache and possibly disastrous wedding day and do not book this DJ.
Jerome was wonderful to work with! He made it easy when we had to reschedule our celebration.
We really appreciated his thoughtfulness and responsiveness. We were very happy with our experience with DJ Rome 802!
I don’t know where to begin but I’ll start by saying before a dj, Jerome is such genuine person and just made us feel like friends from the start and I truly believe one way or another that statement will remain true! My
Fiancé and I as well as our guests did not leave the dance floor! We did not want the night to end, we had the most fun we’ve had in a long time! The smiles and laughter was like nothing I’ve ever felt and boy did we move like nobody was watching! All in all, AMAZING!!!
I don't think I can say enough kind words about DJ Rome to do him justice. After a hectic morning working with our venue folks, DJ Rome's professionalism and music really made it all fall together. We had a really small and intimate wedding, and I was afraid nobody would be dancing. However, DJ Rome's music really got the whole crowd dancing. He answered all my questions in a timely manner, and seriously was my only vendor who responded in a timely manner haha. I didn't have to email multiple times or anything! His voice is super calming and he did a great job MC'ing the event. He got all my music down pat with just me answering a questionnaire. No regrets...cept I just wish I had more events that I could have him DJ for LOL. Our wedding was sooo much FUNNNNNN, and DJ Rome played a huge role in that.
DJ Rome 802 did an amazing job and there is not a single thing I would change. All of our guests, including us where out dancing all night!! He was amazing to work with and I would recommend him to anyone!
J was the perfect dj for our day! We had some very specific combinations for dances and he NAILED it! His set up was amazing, and he was so great about making sure we had everything we wanted/needed for songs. Highly recommend booking him for your day- we were beyond pleased!
DJ Rome was everything we hoped for and more. Not only is he super accommodating, organized and talented, but he’s the world’s nicest guy! He went along with our vision for the type of wedding me wanted, and our guests were out on the dance floor ALL night, even for a few extra songs. DJ Rome went above and beyond to make sure our music, speeches and entrances were just what we wanted. Everyone at our wedding loved him just as much as we did. If you’re looking for a DJ who rolls with the punches and will do anything to make your day perfect and memorable, DJ Rome 802 is the choice. You helped make our wedding day (after two and a half years of planning) so special, Jerome! Thank you!!
There just isn't enough words to explain all the good things to say about DJ Rome. Like most brides, the idea of planning a wedding started off exciting and then quickly became daunting. There were moments where hiring vendors was tricky. DJ Rome, never made it tricky. He made it easy and comfortable and is such a kind human being. He answered every anxiety-induced question I had with kindness, he replied quickly to all of my emails (there were a lot) and he was so supportive and thoughtful throughout the whole process. He is the guy for the job. My family is not big dancers, and he still had people out there moving. He timed the entrance songs for the ceremony perfectly. He even handled some drama that was happening at the venue, and I never even knew about it until after. He was so flexible with us and went with the flow of the day perfectly. Simply, he felt like he was an old friend instead of someone we hired. He was the best, and both my husband and I are so grateful to him! Hire DJ Rome, you will not be sorry.
During both the ceremony and reception DJ Rome absolutely crushed it. During the ceremony, everything was really well timed and he was able to fulfill our requests that likely differed from other weddings! During the reception he also welcomed the idea of trying a new challenge with open arms and it was executed flawlessly. After dinner the dance floor was NEVER empty, and stayed that way until the end of the night! 10/10 recommend.
J was very responsive with any questions we had in the planning process and flexible with changes we had to make due to COVID.
The photobooth was a hit at the wedding and worth upgrading the package! We were happy working with DJ Rome and his staff.
DJ Rome was recommended to us by our videographer, Harrison Evans and we couldn't be happier. I feel like we had the "DREAM TEAM". Jerome Allen is incredibly responsive, always quick to return emails, and couldn't be a nicer guy. He listened to all our ideas and made it happen, just like we imagined. The musical atmosphere for the entire wedding was perfect. He also helped make the wedding flow really well. You did such a great job!!!!! Thank you so much, DJ Rome 802!!!!
Due to COVID, my partner and I were unable to hold the wedding we had planned and instead, are now planning
a small intimate gathering. Although I did not witness firsthand Jerome's DJing, I can speak to his friendliness, organization, and professionalism. Before deciding to change the look of our wedding altogether, we postponed our large wedding to one year later, hoping that COVID would let up. Jerome was understanding and flexible, two things that are not guaranteed in the wedding industry. I would book again in a heartbeat. Lastly, if you need an extra boost of organizational support for your big day, Jerome is your guy. He is practically part wedding planner with the check-lists and organizational documents he provides couples for overall wedding planning. Thank you for everything, J!
Unfortunately due to COVID & being out of state, we were unable to hold our initial wedding. We had an immediate family ceremony that didn’t allow for a DJ.
I can’t speak to his Dj skills but I can speak to his professionalism, response time & overall greatness. If our budget & time allowed a large wedding- you bet your booty we’d have Jerome there. He was so incredible with our schedule, putting things on hold, rescheduling & even our deposit. We knew we were in good hands from the moment we spoke to him on the phone prior to hiring.
Just on that alone- I’d recommend DJ Rome & his crew.
Thanks for being so wonderful in such a crummy time!
I highly recommend DJ Rome 802! From the moment we reached out for booking, Jerome was extraordinarily communicative, organized and professional - and his services go well beyond day-of music needs.
As a couple who planned a wedding during a deeply challenging time in our world, Jerome was one of the few vendors who was truly “on our side.” His realistic perspective, flexibility and empathy did not go unnoticed. Thank you, DJ Rome 802!
Upon my initial search, many DJs and Bands in the VT area came up and I was overwhelmed. After having DJ Romes name, I searched his pages to find a comprehensive webpage and facebook page detailing the services. We decided to book DJ Rome based on his informative websites, quickness in responding, the services he provides (photo booth, wedding planner) on top of just DJ services. We are so glad we did. Sadly, our wedding was postponed and DJ Rome was happy to work with us and kept the customer in mind over his own business needs. We really appreciated his support and ability to work with us in coming up with a solution for our non-refundable deposit. We will reach out to DJ Rome for all of our future VT DJ'ing needs.
We originally booked DJ Rome for our July 2020 wedding. After completing some research online, we heard great reviews and once we reached out he was quick to respond, incredibly friendly and we felt very comfortable with the service and rates provided. Like many others, Covid-19 impacted our original wedding vision. We have had to have a drastic change of plans and are no longer having a reception, however due to the level of professionalism and service, if we ever are in need for a DJ service, DJ Rome will be our first stop. He was incredibly gracious, accommodating and understanding. We would definitely recommend DJ Rome to anyone.
I would like to make a very strong character recommendation for DJ Rome and its employees. I want to commend the integrity, honesty, and professionalism, that was displayed by this team to support their customer affected by delays due to COVID. Not only were they very forthcoming in being flexible with changes in schedule but also financial obligations. Finding a vendor that offers good pricing and A+ service is very hard, DJ Rome and team made it seem like childsplay. Recommend them to anyone.
Allen and I were devastated after making the difficult decision to cancel our Vermont wedding this October. I was really looking forward to working with DJ Rome, he always provided timely responses and was extremely helpful with planning our musical selections for the event. He made the whole process stress free and easy! If we ever host another event in VT he will be the first DJ I call!
DJ Rome worked with us to find the perfect package for our wedding day. Unfortunately our plans changed due to COVID19, but DJ Rome was understanding and flexible as we worked out alternative plans. I definitely recommend DJ Rome for your wedding or party DJ needs.
Unfortunately, like so many other couples, we've had to canceled our wedding this year due to COVID-19. Out of all of the vendors that we've had to work with through this ordeal, DJ Rome has been by far the most understanding.
Jay was AMAZING! All of my guests are still raving about him. He was punctual, understood our "vibe" just from reading our music list, and was very responsive to song requests. We love some good old school Hip Hop and R&B. He played just the right amount of it and plugged in his own music that he saw fit. NO ONE left the dance floor the whole night, which was our goal. My husband used to be a DJ and has some pretty high standards. I have to say, we were both very pleased with Jay's service and will never forget this night solely because of him! Thank You for everything!
DJ Rome 802 kept the party going all night!!! All of our guests commented how amazing the DJ was, and asked where did we find him? My wife gave me the task of finding the DJ for our wedding, since I was personally a DJ myself. That made our decision even more critical. I have to say, DJ Rome 802 exceeded all of my expectations, and his professionalism and personality made the night more enjoyable for all of us. I can’t thank him enough! By far one of the best out there!
We had Cody from DJ Rome 802 and he was awesome. He was flexible with our impromptu ceremony set-up and helped organize everything for our meal (calling tables, announcing us, etc) and our first dance. He played great music, was open to requests, and even found a relatively obscure Guatemalan tune for the groom's grandmother. Would absolutely hire again.
DJ Ian was incredible! From start to finish everything was perfect. He was so personable and all my guests loved him and music mixture of both of our music styles kept everyone dancing all night long! He exceeded all my expectations! Thank you so much!!
DJ Rome was friggin' awesome. He was a pleasure to deal with as he was always responsive and professional in the lead up to the big day.
He has a great questionnaire that you fill out that gives him an idea of your style. We were very particular about our music choices and gave him (probably too many) notes on what were must-plays and what were no-gos and he killed it, taking our notes and turning the dance floor into an unforgettable experience. Our guests were covered in sweat from all the dancing, but they all had smiles plastered across their faces.
His set up is great, and he comes prepared with extra gear such as microphones and light-show equipment just in case you need it (we went with the light show, it was awesome!) He knew how to fit discreetly in our reception space without his gear spilling out all over the place, or it feeling like the center of attention.
DJ Rome was a pleasure in person, knew how to keep the speeches moving along, and had a great voice himself. The flow of the night was perfect, the mix of the songs fantastic, and he even took some requests to the delight of our guests (but also knew to say no to some of the more... inebriated guests).
His assistant was super helpful and kind and even snapped some beautiful photos of the wedding for us (can never have too many of those!)
We would recommend him in a heartbeat and can't thank him enough for helping us host the greatest night of our lives.
DJ Rome was PERFECT and so supportive for our wedding. He was so organized, totally got what we wanted and had every piece of equipment we needed. He helped us to execute some different sound/musical needs (we had friends play guitar and sing during our ceremony, and perform during the reception) flawlessly. He was so easy to work with, so amiable during our event and most of all, kept the party going until our venue made us leave! We sent him some playlists to give him an idea of our vision and he got it COMPLETELY! Folks have been asking us about our DJ and we are happy to recommend him to anyone who wants their wedding to be a good time! Thanks so much, DJ Rome!
DJ Rome was amazing to work with, extremely professional, organized and quick to respond. Even when we didn't have the share drive completely filled out he made sure to ask what we needed days before the wedding. Photobooth was a huge hit with print outs at the wedding, we even got a photobook with all of the pictures inside that guests could sign. He played great music and kept the party going all night. He and his associate were even able to bring a speaker and microphone up the mountain for our ceremony. Nothing but complements for him! 10/10 recommend for any event! All our guests even raved about how good he was in the days following. Hes super accommodating and flexible. A pleasure to work with. I wished I lived in VT I would hire him for all my parties! I do not have enough good things to say about him. Do yourself a favor and hire him, you wont be sorry!
The DJ Rome team was an ideal partner for our big day. After seeing their work at other events, we knew they were our top choice! Our venue heard we were going to be working with them and excitedly told us “they’re great!” They were.
Communicating early and often, we had full trust they would execute the perfect soundtrack for our day. DJ Ianu helped direct guests during dinner and provided helpful updates when it was time for our shuttles to depart. They were quick to accommodate on the spot requests, and they were very flexible, professional and kind! We really enjoyed the videos DJ Rome posted after our event to capture small moments we missed during the big day, especially the behind the scenes video of our reception entrance. The lighting was also fantastic.
So thankful for a great team and would recommend the DJ Rome team to anyone!
Responsive, Friendly and Kept the Party Going!
We loved having DJ Rome 802 as our DJ company. In the time leading up to wedding, Jerome was responsive, helpful and supportive. He listened to our needs and made sure we were getting the best service possible. Whenever I had a question, he would answer quickly and thoroughly. DJ Ianu was our DJ for the night and he was wonderful! From his first email to us before our wedding to the end of our wedding, he was consistently friendly. He had a huge smile on his face throughout the night and kept our guests dancing. Our guests kept saying how nice our DJ was and how he was consistently friendly to everyone (even the ones who had indulged at the bar a little bit too much haha). You could tell he really loved what he was doing and that he was happy to be there. I would HIGHLY recommend going with DJ Rome 802 for our DJ needs- they are affordable, professional and truly LOVE what they do. THANK YOU DJ Rome 802!! Our memories from the night will last a lifetime!
From the get-go Jay was organized and professional. He was in contact us early on with a spreadsheet of our likes and dislikes so we were comfortable going into the day. On the day of he was great in reading the crowd during cocktail our and our reception— we got a lot of compliments on the choice of music, and people were dancing up until the last minute which is exactly what we wanted. He was also really accommodating on set up both our outdoor mountain ceremony and indoor reception which were 15 minute drives away. His assistant was also great on taking some really nice pictures which was a great surprise outside of our professional wedding photos. All in all we would absolutely book Jay again and are so glad we chose him for our wedding. Thanks Jay!
DJ Rome and his crew were absolutely incredible! Ceremony music and mics were setup in great positions. Walked into the reception to great music. We cannot thank DJ Rome and his amazing crew for keeping the music going all night to dance our asses off!
Jay made our wedding a true celebration, our friends couldn't stop raving about how much they danced and the wedding! Jay knew how to read the room and play just the right songs and the right time. People where full on dancing while waiting in line to get food! not to mention Jay was very friendly and professional during all of our interaction leading up to the wedding which was very re-assuring to us. 10/10 would recommend!
Rome did a fantastic job. He was very thoughtful in his preparation, making sure he exactly knew what we wanted and how we imagined our reception to be. He made the day easy on us, the only time I thought about the music was when I was enjoying time on the dance floor. Constantly my friends and family are bringing up the great time we had on the dance floor and Rome really helped to facilitate those great moments. He is a great guy, extremely professional, and I would use him again.
DJ Rome is the best around. One of the things we wanted most for our wedding was a packed dance floor and good music. DJ Rome kept a perfect flow through the evening in order to keep everybody from sitting a song out. He made sure to stay away from our "no-plays" and was extremely professional before, during, and after the event. My wife and I have been to many weddings in this area, and DJ Rome is by far the best we've seen. I can't express how thankful we were to have him at our event. You rock!
Jay was very great at responding to any questions we had. He got back to us within 24 hours. During our wedding, he showed up five hours prior to the start of our wedding to set up. He provided a wireless speaking for our ceremony. He did a amazing job and was very professional. Thank you for making our day special. Jay also has great prices.👍
Jerome did my daughter's wedding, he was awesome! M & R knew him from St. Michaels College and he traveled to Mass. for the wedding. If you are looking for a DJ that is professional and personal Jerome is the man. He had the house rockin. I highly recommend him for your event!!! Thanks Jerome!!!
Jay is a very talented DJ that can read a room and know just what direction to go in. He is very knowledgeable about music, he listens, and is affordable. Don't hire a tired, mediocre MC, hire an experienced professional with youthful energy - DJ Rome!
Wonderful from starting to finish! Kept the dance floor full the whole night and my guests still say how much fun they had! I would highly recommend for your wedding/event.
DJ Rome did an amazing job! We were looking for an MC that wouldn't steal the spot light, and he respected that. He anticipated our crowd and played a great mix that got everyone dancing. He even went above and beyond and saved us a slice of the wedding cake since he saw that we didnt have a chance to eat it. his rates were super affordable and it was literally the most stress free decision we needed to make for the wedding.
