As a lifelong musician and music lover, I was NOT excited about hiring a dj for my wedding reception. All the memories of lame music and corny banter at other weddings left me with the feeling that all wedding dj’s miss the mark. I couldn’t hav...
e been more wrong. Not only is Jerry truly a master of his craft, he’s incredibly easy to work and communicate with. He got the guests involved, but didn’t talk too much. He played songs that got every age group on the dance floor, but still managed to squeeze in every one of our requests. Each song seamlessly flowed into the next, and there wasn’t a single dull moment for the entire night. If you want a fun reception with no headache, this is the DJ for you.

thank you! It was my pleasure.
I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. He was polite, punctual and communicated great prior to the wedding. He had all the equipment he needed for both the ceremony and the reception. He was easy to get ahold of for questions and played exactly...
what we asked. When our schedule got thrown off due to some other issues not related to him, DJ uptown was on his toes and flexible with shifting things around and without missing a beat. Most importantly when he had a question or needed to let us know something he approached us with respect for the conversation we were in and waited for us to finish greeting a guest. He is a rare find and you won’t be disappointed.

thank you!
DJ Uptown is excellent at what he does! He keeps the party moving all night and expertly blends from one song to the next. Our guests had a great time dancing the night away and we couldn't have asked for a better music selection. DJ Uptown is ...
the way to go!!

thank you!
Best DJ ever! If you are looking for a typical wedding DJ who just hits play on their Spotify, DJ Uptown could probably do this but it would be a waste of his talents. If you are looking for a legitimate DJ who is a wonderful emcee and can actu...
ally MIX, then hire him immediately! We got some many compliments about our choice of DJ. He had people dancing hard all night!
We were very particular about the songs that we wanted played during our wedding reception and DJ Uptown played them all. There was some confusion about payment after we added another hour to our reception a few days before that I thought could...
have been handled a little better.
Great DJ! Kept the party going and that’s what I wanted!
DJ Uptown keeps the party going!!
Jerry did an amazing job at our wedding. I requested 2 things from Jerry, great music for our guests to dance to and to sprinkle in some salsa music. He exceeded my expectations. My guests and I danced the night away! Thank you Jerry!
Jerry was fantastic! He really listened to the music we liked and wanted to be played. We asked him to periodically announce scores for the St. Louis Blues hockey game and he did exactly that (even playing the goal horn when we scored). He did ...
our photo booth as well and we could not have been more pleased with both services!
DJ Uptown was FANTASTIC. Thank you so much for everything on March 25th.. You did a fantastic job...I've gotten a lot of compliments from various co-workers, family and friends on how much fun the dance floor was. People were literally danci...
ng the entire night. I would happily recommend you to anyone who has asks and even some people who didn't! THANKS!
Awesome DJ and so easy to work with. I just sent him a list of the songs we really wanted and songs we didn't want, along with our preferred kind of music, and he did everything we wanted and then more. He accommodated my guests who probably we...
re annoying with all their extra requests. Our dance floor was crowded all night and I really give him a lot of credit for that. Amazing!
Jerry was easy to work with and put on an awesome show at our wedding. The guests can't stop talking about how much they had on the dance floor and the awesome mix of music he chose for us.
DJ Uptown was FANTASTIC! Jerry is very easy going and totally receptive to any requests you may have for your event music. I cannot believe how many people were on the dance floor! He really knows how to read the crowd. An added bonus, Jerr...
y also has a photo booth business, so we managed to incorporate that into our event as well. We're so grateful that Peter (@ The Thaxton) suggested DJ Uptown for our reception!
DJ Uptown did our wedding at the Thaxton recently. He was very easy to work with and friendly, and he accommodated all of our requests. Our friends and family were dancing all night -- even the ones we didn't expect to hit the dance floor! Th...
at means the DJ must be doing something right!
DJ Uptown did our wedding at The Thaxton in September and he is amazing! Do not expect some run of the mill wedding DJ here. He is legit, and his talent for mixing made the party so much fun. People were on the dance floor from the very beginni...
ng to the very end!
We gave Jerry just a bit of direction and he really read our crowd from there. HE kept us and our guests dancing all night and we couldn't have been happier with his music.
