I cannot even begin to describe our exceptional experience with DJ Shazam. From the first inquiry until even today (7 weeks after the wedding) every interaction with DJ Shazam has been thoughtful, entertaining, professional, and beyond all expectations. DJ Shazam hit all of our marks, and even secretly worked with my parents to create a unique speech at the wedding dinner that represented us so well. I am continuously told by our guests that our wedding dance floor was the best wedding dance floor they have ever been in their life. We felt heard, appreciated, acknowledged, and SEEN my DJ Shazam. He has created life long fans, and we will always bring him into any party we need a DJ at. Thank you DJ Shazam, we cannot wait to dance alongside you someday soon!

Adam was such an awesome DJ - he knows how to get the crowd on their feet, and he has such a warm persona. Our meetings with Adam were really fun and very easy to discuss our ideas for the music. He is super easy to get in contact with and was very helpful during our planning process. Would absolutely recommend Adam for anyone who is planning their next big event!

Adam was a joy to work with at a recent wedding! We were the videographers there and Adam made our job so easy. He was professional and friendly and definitely knew what he was doing. He was full of energy and provided a great time to the wedding attendees. Look forward to working with him the future!

Any questions?

DJ Shazam was absolutely amazing! From the moment we started planning, he made everything so easy and fun. Music was a huge deal for us, and he totally nailed it. The whole process was seamless, and he made sure our wedding was the best party ever. He wasn't just a DJ—he was an incredible MC too. Super funny, really personable, and he got everyone hyped up. Plus, he helped mic up the ceremony and all the speeches, so everything went off without a hitch. Planning with him was a breeze. He listened to all our requests and made sure everything was perfect. Honestly, DJ Shazam is the best DJ I've ever partied with. I'd recommend him for any event, hands down. He also does tons of gigs at local bars and venues, so definitely go check him out. You won't regret it! Lastly, thank you, Adam...you made our wedding a night to remember. DJ Shazam is hands down the best DJ I've ever encountered. I highly recommend him for any and all events. He also regularly does sets at local bars and venues, and I urge anyone to check him out. You won't be disappointed! Lastly, thank you, Adam...you made our wedding a night to remember.

We hired DJ Shazam for our high school grad party and he was awesome. Very professional and easy to deal with. Adam was very accommodating and his music selection is perfect. We would hire him again without hesitation.

Our guests absolutely LOVED Adam. Some even went so far as to say that he was the best DJ they had ever seen! He kept party vibes strong all night long! And he was so flexible with the schedule and last minute changes. His pricing was a little higher than we were looking for, but our wedding definitely wouldn't have been the same without him. Big love to DJ Shazam!

Working with DJ Shazam was one of our best decisions for our wedding. He brought great energy to our event, fostering a fun and upbeat environment for us and our guests. It rained all day during our wedding, but everyone was in high spirits and had a great time, which was in no small part due to the atmosphere created by Adam. Leading up to the event, he worked closely with us to tailor a playlist for the whole day using a simple, user-friendly app. Whether we gave him specific songs to play or just a general idea (for us, it was “Millennial Hits”), Adam was always at the top of his game and crafted the perfect vibes for each portion of our wedding. His work is better than a 10 out of 10. He brought our day up to an 11!

Adam DJ’d our wedding in May 2023 & was absolutely incredible to work with the entire end to end process!!! He was so organized & easy to with on coordinating which songs we wanted played/not played, the type of vibes we were looking during different parts of our wedding, etc. He even helped us learn about things we weren’t aware of but made a huge difference day of (microphone types, etc). His professionalism was incredibly appreciated as well, from beginning to end. He came early day off with all the equipment needed & kept the vibes / energy so incredibly positive all night. Our guests said this “was the best wedding ever” and I credit that HUGELY to Adam, DJ Shazam! thank you!! 12/10 recommend

Adam Millman

Owner

DJ Shazam began toying with music curation since 2006, and became a professional DJ in 2015. From 2016-2022 he worked with an agency to gain experience DJing for crowds of all sizes while pursuing a career in tech in Silicon Valley. In 2023, he exchanged his tech career for that in entertainment, and now owns his own company. That same year, he dove deeper into DJing and expanded his knowledge, skills, and music library. One can say after 8+ years DJing professionally, he is an expert. But if you ask him, he'd say this is only the beginning :)
