y husband and I had an amazing time working with DJ Stormtrooper for our wedding this past Saturday. He was very professional and helped us keep the party going. We also used the photo booth through DJ Storm Trooper and we got access to all of the photos and videos from our friends and family the day after the wedding. The thing we got the most compliments on was the stormtrooper entrance. It was super fun and afterwards our guests were able to take pictures with the stormtrooper as well. Overall, we had a great time and highly recommend!

We were originally excited to book Sam and his team because he seemed to have a lot of years of experience. However, we thought we were booking a DJ instead of an MC and ended up receiving more of an active personality than a professional DJ, which did distract from our big day. Sam had multiple meetings with us leading up to the day, as well as multiple email exchanges and even a homework sheet but there were items we specifically requested that did not occur. For example, we asked for a specific song to open the dance floor after speeches which was not played. I also requested a specific portion of a song to be played for my entrance (with timestamps were provided), which he said was no problem, but he played the wrong portion. We were late walking down the isle because he was unable to get the songs queued, and then we spent the entire ceremony dealing with a very loud, high-pitched feedback noise due to his equipment that was never addressed - I'm not sure if my guests could even hear us over the noise. Multiple guests reported that he and his assistant were on their phones during the majority of the reception dancing.
Finally, Sam took time away from our event to speak to our friends and family, which we did not realize was going to happen. We were of the understanding that he would help welcome individuals by name or segue into different events, like speeches or cake cutting, but we never expected him to insert himself into the night with his own speech and monologue. He even directly stole a part of my dad's (father of the bride's) speech line by line directly after my dad finished speaking. My guests thought it was incredibly strange, given that he was a vendor and not a guest. The photo booth was a nice addition provided at a fair price, and the packages were very reasonable, but I felt disappointed with the service provided. Should you book, I would encourage you to be very direct with Sam and be very intentional about frequent follow ups and emails to ensure he does not miss any details like what happened with us.

Hello Meredith,
I am so sorry that you were unhappy with our service. The timestamps/song...
edits you requested were set up prior to your event and were the only versions in your file. We also started the ceremony music right when your coordinator came over to tell us to start. If you recall our conversation, I had stated that when a dy of coordinator is used, we wait on the coordinator as they are, or should be in constant contact with you. I do also apologize about my outgoing demeanor and will work closer with future clients to make sure that we have a better idea of their personal preferences on the interaction with the couple/family/friends.
Wishing you the best, and wanting to say thank you for the review and the tip for my assistant and myself. Be Blessed.

Affordable, extremely friendly, he accommodated all our last minute changes that occurred due to rain and was very responsive and flexible. We changed our location and date/time multiple times. He blew our expectations of what a DJ is about out of the water.

Had an amazing wedding and could not have had any of it go so perfectly without Sam.
DJ Stormtrooper is the way to go if you want to have a great and amazing time at your wedding.
We were struggling with planning, getting things together and coordinating between our son and our jobs, and everything went amazing.
Thanks again for the wonderful job and the great coordination and wedding planning, and of course the music!

Very nice! Fair pricing. Communication was great. Thank you very much for helping with mc tasks and music with my daughter's wedding on Sunday. Sometimes I know that it was difficult to transition to the next song with the assigned playlist, but that was that only issue that I noticed. Thanks for your help with trying to keep things moving and grooving!

DJ stormtrooper was wonderful to work with! Although, we didn’t get the chance to have them DJ our wedding due to COVID, they refunded us in full. No questions asked. We will be passing their name along for newly engaged couples.

Dj Storm trooper really made our special day the best day ever. They went out of their way to please us and they played a great variety of music that we loved. If you are looking for a great Dj that will play any kind of music you want, they are the DJ for you! The photo booth was a huge hit as well!

We hired DJ storm trooper for my daughter's wedding. Sam and Anna were some of the most helpful people I have ever worked with. The DJ I hired for my older daughter's wedding was nowhere near as thorough on the interview, or anywhere near as friendly and open to working with us. Sam and Anna played more of the songs that entertained our guests and kept everything moving perfectly. During cocktail hour and dinner the songs were all light hearted and very mood setting. When it came time to dance they had us all on the floor nonstop. Many of our guest told us that they had never had such a good time. We will use DJ storm trooper for all of our future parties and we highly recommend them to friends and family.
