From our initial phone call with West, Rob and I knew we were in great hands. His energy radiated through the phone, and we found ourselves standing up feeling hyped after a few minutes of just talking to him. West is incredibly versed in his craft – he is thoughtful, curates your vibe entirely to your preferences while lending his expertise to ensure your night moves seamlessly. He listened to what we looked for, what we wanted to avoid – he knew what we wanted before we knew we wanted it! That’s how DJ West operates. His professionalism and enthusiasm are truly unmatched. “Look no further” is cliché but seriously…LOOK NO FURTHER! This is the man to call if you want to party!

DJ West thoughtfully curated the party of our dreams for our November wedding. From the time we started planning, we knew we wanted one thing: a *fun* reception with a full dance floor. DJ West delivered, beyond our wildest dreams.
He was communicative in the planning process, punctual and enthusiastic before the ceremony started, and a certified good time during our reception. DJ West worked the room, played all of our favorite songs, and responded so well to the crowd. We heard from so many guests after our wedding that he simply made the party, and we couldn't agree more. DJ West brought the house down (everyone left exhausted from dancing all night long)!
We are so thrilled he was part of our day, and we can't recommend Dream Team highly enough. If you want a fun wedding, you need DJ West!

I had DJ James for my wedding and he was wonderful! He could read the crowd very well, was very calm and helpful (as a stressed bride on her wedding day, thats a big trait). The DJ was one of my more important vendors, personally, and he exceeded all expectations! The company uses an app to help you build you song selections and playlists that is very simple and user friendly. Their coordinator was amazing as well and quick to respond to emails. I highly recommend them for anyone else who wants an amazing DJ, whether it be for your wedding or some other big event.

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! From start to finish, DJ West kept the energy high, reading the crowd perfectly and playing all the songs we love. They were professional, punctual, and made sure every moment felt special. Our guests are still raving about the music and how much fun they had on the dance floor. Highly recommend DJ West for any event!

DJ Soup was absolutely phenomenal, and kept our guests out on the dance floor all night long. He seamlessly weaved his own song choices in with our preselcted songs as he read the dance floor and guests’ energy, keeping everyone entertained. DJ Soup not only has a vast knowledge of music, but he is also an excellent emcee. We highly recommend Dream Team events (and even more so DJ Soup) for your party needs!

If we could give them more stars, we would. DJ West is AMAZING. He brought our ceremony and reception to life. We instantly connected with DJ West. He cared about getting to know us as a couple and what our relationship is all about. He took our playlist and vision and brought it to life. Everyone at our wedding complimented our DJ and said he was the best DJ they have ever heard at a wedding. We could not agree more. We would recommend him to anyone getting married. He ran our ceremony and reception flawlessly! Every song played was a banger and we just got to enjoy the party along with our guests. The Dream Team Events team were so easy to work with!! Book with them for your wedding and you will have the most fun wedding ever!!

We’d highly recommend Dream Team Events! Everyone we worked with was very professional and polite. With their DJ service, they have an app that helps coordinate your wedding day timeline and playlist, and it makes a huge difference in the flow of events. They were very organized, and all of their services exceeded our expectations.
DJ Sonic did an amazing job and had everybody out on the dance floor! The monogram and the dancing on the cloud machine topped everything off and made it feel like we were in a fairytale.

We couldn't be happier with our choice to have Dream Team Events provide both the DJ and photobooth services for our wedding. From start to finish, they were nothing short of amazing!
Firstly, the team was incredibly accommodating. They took the time to understand our vision and seamlessly incorporated all of our requests into the evening. Whether it was our specific song selections or the timing of the announcements, they handled everything with professionalism and a genuine desire to make our day perfect.
The DJ kept the dance floor packed all night long. The music was fantastic, catering to all ages and keeping the energy high from start to finish. They read the crowd perfectly and ensured that everyone had a great time.
The photobooth was a huge hit! Our guests had so much fun with the wide array of props, and the quality of the photos was excellent. It added an extra layer of entertainment and gave us wonderful keepsakes to look back on.
Dream Team Events truly made our wedding reception unforgettable. Their attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and ability to create such a fun atmosphere were beyond our expectations. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for an incredible wedding reception experience. They are the best in the business!

DJ West was absolutely phenomenal! The whole company was so easy to work with and kept in contact with us months before the wedding. They made everything so simple and easy and I would hire DJ West for any other event over and over again! He is very personable, reads the crowd, and was just all around the best DJ I’ve ever experienced. He even played requests from my 3 year old son without hesitation. We love that he interacted with the crowd and even came out and danced the night away with us! Hands down 10/10!

I would highly recommend Dream Team events to anyone looking for a professional event vendor. We partnered with them for our April 2024 wedding and have no regrets! They had a detailed consult with us to ensure they recommended the best party options and DJ. I loved the convenience of being able to add on different options (lighting, special effects, a photobooth with props), which made partnering with them really inclusive. We ended up only selecting their photo booth add-on, but appreciated the detailed touches (options for background, custom-designed graphic on photo strip, gallery of images sent by next business day). They also send a photobooth attendant, who was super sweet and handed me a prop to use as a fan when she noticed I stepped outside to cool off from dancing.
Based on our communicated vision, they partnered us with DJ Josh, who really went above and beyond to ensure we had the perfect evening. Music selection, cultivating a vibe, a high-energy MCA, and ensuring a never-empty dance floor were my highest priority items and DJ Josh DELIVERED! He had multiple consults with me prior to the wedding, and sent us a custom cut of our first dance early enough to allow plenty of time for us to practice. He also took the time to get to know us and our music style so he could make sure what he played reflected us.
My absolute favorite part was how DJ Josh allowed my husband and I a brief private moment to have a last slow dance, just us, before our grand exit. I hadn't even factored this into our timeline, but so appreciated the thoughtful gesture and surprise coordination he made with our day of to make that happen.

Thank you so much Dream Team Events for the amazing fun that you all brought to our wedding ceremony and the memories you helped make. I am so grateful for DJ West’s and Shina‘s commitment to an incredible experience and ensuring our satisfaction. We were blown away by the amount of organization and preparedness they had with the music and photo booth. Our initial meeting with DJ West was so reassuring, and we are so grateful for the time he graciously gave us to get to know him and the company. I also found the resources they provided for building our wedding playlist so helpful, and he was always equipped with suggestions and guidance. On our wedding day, all of their hard work was so evident, and we were blessed by the result in both our memories, photos, and videos. We can not thank you all enough for the amazing work you do, DJ West and Shina, thank you so much!!!❤️

We had such a fun wedding reception in March thanks to DJ West at Dream Team Events. We are still hearing from guests who said they had an absolute blast dancing all night long. He came very highly recommended from our wedding planner and many of our wedding vendors and it was easy to see why. DJ West kept the music flowing so everyone wanted to stay on the dance floor -- from the youngest kids to the young at heart. He uses an app-based system that allowed us to select our music which made the process so easy and stress-free. We really enjoyed being able to pick the exact songs we wanted played during our cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. If you're looking for a wonderfully talented DJ with a heart of gold, DJ West is your guy!

DJ West isn’t called the best for no reason! We are so happy we decided to go with DJ West for our wedding ceremony & reception. His charisma, energy and attitude were excellent and definitely added an upbeat vibe to the entire day. We had heard great things about DJ West in the area, but once we had our consultation, that really solidified the deal. Dream Team Events is very professional and organized. We filled out inquiry forms and went through a detailed questionnaire to make sure DJ West had all the details he needed to make our special night one to remember. On top of that, we were able to input songs for each part of our wedding into an app that my wife and I could both control. It was such an easy and seamless process and took a lot of the weight off of our shoulders. On the day of, DJ West was very helpful and respectful throughout the whole day. Whenever we needed him, he was there! I highly recommend you work with DJ West if you’re looking for a DJ for your next event.
For our photo booth, we decided to work with Shina and her awesome business “A Party Booth”. This was such a great addition to the night! Our guests chose from a variety of different props and accessories, posed & had the pictures instantly sent to them via text. We also had printouts of each picture so guests could leave with a digital and physical memory. It was a great way for us to capture some fun, silly moments of the night with our best friends and family. Shina’s attitude and knowledge of the software really helped make the night go smooth. We still look back at all the pictures that were taken that night, priceless!!
If you couldn’t tell, we really enjoyed working with Dream Team Events and HIGHLY encourage you to do the same!

DJ West was the DJ for our wedding and we can’t say enough good things about him! The consult prior to booking him really solidified our choice and we knew we wouldn’t find a better option for the big day! He’s a total pro who’s truly a master at what he does and more than delivered on game day! My wife still brings up how awesome he was and how much he added to the day. They also make the process leading up to the wedding a breeze! The portal they give you access to lets you select all of the music that will be played throughout the day. It’s overwhelming to think about all the special music that is going to be played throughout the day but the portal makes it streamlined and easy to visual how the day is going to flow! If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding or really any event, look no further!

I was referred to them by E&E special events for their dancing on the cloud services . It was such a sweet surprise to find out they also offered projection monogram and 360 video . It was so convient to be able to book one company than different companies for each service .
I reached out to inquire for services and they got back to me immediately. Everyone I spoke with were so patient , kind , and took the time to explain everything.
If you are looking for a company that can provide multiple services for your wedding, I recommend them ! Josh serviced our wedding and he was the sweetest. Very energetic and was excited to be there . Finding a spot for the monogram was difficult but he nailed it. I’m a very happy bride !
Thanks again ❤️

We absolutely loved DJ Karizma!! His knowledge and expertise of music did not go unnoticed. He totally got my husband and I when we said we wanted a club vibe. He kept the dance floor packed all night long and gave us a night that no one will ever forget!! During our final meeting, he listened to my vision, gave advice, and helped craft the most perfect list of music for every aspect of our wedding! We are forever grateful for DJ Karizma and his team! Our guests are still saying it is the best wedding they have ever been to and the music selection was top notch!! If it is an option, I would also definitely recommend adding the 360 booth! It was such a fun thing for our guests to do, they are still talking about it! We absolutely loved it! The attendant was both knowledgeable and fun! Such a great experience!!

We hired Dream Team Events for our wedding in September. They were very professional and knowledgeable! Dj West was extremely patient and helpful during our planning process. He helped answer ALL questions (and there were a lot), he was very flexible when we had to reschedule. We got monogram, cold sparks and dancing on the clouds effects from them! What an AMAZING choice! It was one of the best decisions we made! I uploaded all the songs and timeline for our wedding and he played all the right songs! Everyone had a great time and there were people on the dance floor the entire time. I would definitely recommend Dream Team Events! THANK YOU DREAM TEAM!

My husband and I used Dream Team Events for our DJ at our wedding. From the beginning consultation to our actual wedding, the process was seamless. The app we used was very easy to navigate, and the fact that we were able to choose most of the songs for our wedding playlist added a personal touch to the night. DJ Sonic did a great job at getting the crowd going as well. I highly recommend using Dream Team for your DJ needs!

Dream Team Events lets you make your wedding playlist as specific as you want :) My husband and I got married about 3 months ago and our family still talks about how amazing the music was! 🤩 We recently got our wedding photos back and you can see that Wesley got EVERYONE dancing!!!😁 Best and easiest wedding planning decision that you will make :)

It was a true delight, honor and privilege to have DJ West at the helm for our wedding! From the beginning he gave us a great deal of time and attention, opening his schedule for meetings to chat, get to know us as individuals, learn about our lives and speak at great length about our vision.
His app was actually a really convenient feature to help visually lay out the entire evening from ceremony, to cocktail hour, through choreographed events throughout the evening, while being fully timestamped and customizable (including a “do not play list” which we did not take advantage of and clearly didn’t need as the vibe was perfectly curated following our suggestions and discussion).
Coming from restaurants and hospitality, I was quickly put at ease during our first discussions because I got a very quick sense that DJ West was in this business because he loves special moments and loves people. Throughout the entire evening, his warm spirit and gregarious energy proved my initial impressions to be very true. He felt like part of the celebrations and part of the family. Since our big day we had a number of our social groups comment about how perfect the playlists were for the evening and how relentless the good times were.
If you want a DJ to stick to your vision, keep the energy of your celebration moving, and that is in this business for the right reasons, you won’t be disappointed with DJ West and Dream Team Events.

Dream Team Events and DJ West were absolutely phenomenal! The communication was amazing and I loved the Vibo app which gave me the ability to pick my own songs for each part of my wedding reception and adjust the timeline to my needs and specifications. My wedding coordinator was also allowed access so everyone could be on the same page. The uplighting really uplifted the ambiance and I loved that I was able to have them all changed to green for when I gave my new hubby a Green Bay Packers surprise! ☺️ The Dancing on the clouds was magical for our first dance and the kids loved it too. DJ West was top notch and definitely brought our reception to the next level! We got so many compliments from our guests, including a few that had said it was the best wedding they had ever attended. Thank you so much Dream Team Event and DJ West!! You all have given us memories for a lifetime!!

Amazing! Dj West was the best decision we could have made to keep our reception running smoothly and make it a party. He pronounced everyone's name correctly, played the right songs at the right time and just is a natural on the mic. The dance floor was full all night long and his transitions from song to song were insane and so hype. We highly recommend you hire Dream Team Events if you want reliability and for your wedding reception to be a party. We received so many compliments afterwards. Look no further and hire them!!!

We had DJ West from Dream Team Events for our wedding. He was absolutely spectacular! He was on premise with plenty of time to set up and he was awesome all night long!! DJ West was upbeat, he played exactly what was planned, and he was even on the dance floor during some of the songs! He pumped our guests up and made the entire night super fun! There was no lack of enthusiasm at all. He even played a game with our guests when everyone first sat down to dinner that kept everyone engaged. So fun! I REALLY loved the VIBO app that Dream Team Events uses to help plan the music and timeline for the wedding. I was able to add any song I wanted as well as leave comments and information for DJ West to see. I could not have asked for a better experience nor a better DJ to help lead our awesome party! I highly recommend DJ West and Dream Team Events!!

The then DJ West Entertainment team quite literally made our entire wedding. If you're even slightly considering them, book them! We had quests from all age groups attend our wedding and received knowing but compliments about how fun and how great our DJ was. Westly and Shina were both amazing to work with and really genuinely care about the couples they work with. it was so nice to have a vender who worked so hard to get to know us both individually and as a couple.
The platform they used at the time was also super user friendly and made it so easy to compile our song choices from ceremony to reception.
I would have ten more wedding just to work with them again!

DJ West was hands-down the BEST wedding DJ I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting! He was the DJ at our wedding about 2 weeks ago, and he rocked the house!! He took all of our requests into full consideration and incorporated and expanded on them, was very easy to communicate and schedule with, and was generally a fantastic edition to our wedding. On the few occasions that our guests asked last-second for specific songs to be played, he used fantastic judgement to determine whether it would fit the vibe and played it within the next 5 minutes. He did a fantastic job keeping the reception lively, romantic, and fun, and was an extremely welcome edition to the wedding staff. We can’t recommend him enough!

We LOVED Dream Team Events for our wedding and would recommend them over and over again. DJ West was absolutely fantastic - he took the time to listen to our preferences ahead of time, and the best decision was trusting him with the rest. He somehow knew exactly what songs to play to ensure everyone was dancing and having an amazing time. We had such a wide range of ages at our wedding, and legitimately all age groups commented afterwards about how much fun they had and how good the music was. Dream Team Events was SO easy to communicate with and were even able to accommodate last-minute changes. Booking DJ West was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding - thank you so much for giving us the chance to celebrate with our friends and family!

Ahhh where do I start? So for me my wedding dream had 3 tops : Music, Food, and Photos. He delivered beyond my expectations and I’m really siting here thinking of when I can book him again for my next event lol
,When I tell you this man set it off.. listen hire him now! I’m so serious.,
There is no other DJ that can top his work and I researched a lot and no company comes close!
He is reliable, easy to work with, and very professional!
All night, and still currently all I am hearing is “ This is the best DJ I have ever experienced “ “ Courtney your DJ was amazing “ my favorite was lol “ Man I wasn’t sure if I was at a wedding or the club “ “ Best wedding I’ve ever been too”
DJWest as a person is so sweet, funny, energetic, and amazing to be around! Just talking with him puts you in a uplifting mood!
Now his craft is unmatched! He is reads the room, he’s so interactive and literally everyone was on the dance floor! My father even said “ Baby your DJ brought me back to my clubbing days”
Ahh take me back!
His service is an investment to having the best night of your life, worth it!
West I wish you and Shina nothing but the best and all the success you deserve !

My friend helped me find vendors for our wedding on 7/17/2022 at the Tidewater Inn in Easton MD. I have to say her connecting us to Dream Team Events was one of the best things she did for us! DJ West and Shina really brought the party to our wedding. The music was seamless and everything we wanted for our big day. Please don't skip out on the photobooth either because it kept the guests entertained when they weren't on the dance floor! The lighting they provided was also a perfect touch to an already amazing venue. DJ West was sure to plan periodic check ins with us over Facetime to make sure everything was planned perfectly and there were no surprises. The whole process was very customizable and easy! It was literally like Facetiming a friend every time. I cannot think of one bad thing to say about Dream Team Events and I will definitely recommend them to everyone that asks me who they should use in the future!

DJ West's energy, attentiveness, and personality were more than perfect for our wedding. We had a lot of music selection and special moment details (multiple spreadsheets worth); he listened to what we wanted and executed them with excitement and with what appeared to be ease (although we know there was nothing easy about it). DJ West provided an awesome MC and Music experience for our guests. The dance floor remained occupied all night long. They did not want to leave (literally they stayed till the venue was removing the dance floor and so did DJ West :) ). We received multiple "this was the best wedding." DJ West's energy and he and Shina's professionalism is unmatched. We are so happy with our investment and decision. P.s. His lighting package was awesome and also provided an experience that exceeded our expectations.

I was introduced to DJ West at a bridal show and instantly knew I really wanted him as our DJ when the first song he was playing was by my favorite artist. After sitting down for our initial consultation with West and his wife, Shina, we instantly fell in love with both of them. We unfortunately had to postpone our wedding due to Covid but West was understanding and very accommodating. He made sure to check in during the planning process and he even had an app that made planning for the wedding easy. West is a down to earth, kind, funny, family man and I would recommend him over and over again. I need more friends to get married so we can see him again! Shina is a sweetheart and worked so hard to make our wedding a dream come true. Couldn’t have done it without her!

DJ West and Shina were absolutely amazing! We are so glad we decided to book them for our wedding. During all the consultations and planning it just felt like you were talking to friends and you knew they would go that extra mile to make the experience unforgettable. The music was amazing and got everyone dancing and having a good time. The photo booth was one of the best parts of the reception and everyone loved taking their pictures with the props. I cannot recommend them enough. The price was fantastic for the experience they provided and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have a great time at their wedding. Thank you so much DJ West and Shina for making our wedding so enjoyable and memorable.

Dj West and Shina were amazing. I was so nervous because our wedding was multicultural. Where infusing music from three different countries seemed either impossible or a complete failure.
Dj West killed it!!
He set the most amazing vibes for our wedding, where everyone was able to have fun and enjoy themselves. The music mix was so awesome everyone got out of their seats. The photo booth set up by Shina was so much fun and the quality of the photos were absolutely fantastic.
This is one dynamic duo, wouldn’t have traded them for anyone else.
Look no further, this is best company out here.

I could never speak highly enough about DJ West!!! He and Shina go above and beyond in the months leading up to your wedding to truly understand you as a couple and your vision for your wedding day. Let me tell you, it is evident in the way the day runs. Everything was legitimate perfection. The night ran so smoothly and MULTIPLE guests (who go to 10+ weddings a year) said that DJ West was the best wedding DJ they’d ever seen … I could not agree more! He is interactive, engaging and reads the crowd perfectly. 1 million stars for DJ West!!! Book him immediately you will not regret it!

We had a fantastic experience working with DJWest. He is super nice and genuinely cares about making your wedding reception as special as possible. He met with us twice to get to know us as a couple and to better understand what kind of music we like and what vibe we wanted for the wedding. He also used an app that he shared with us and allowed us to make a list of songs we wanted to hear at the wedding, and he used this as an inspiration for picking other songs through the night. He reviewed this playlist with us after we made it as well, which I found very helpful. We have gotten so many compliments about how great the music was that night. We had a great playlist for dinner, and then once the dancing started we had a full dance floor the rest of the night! I attribute this to the fact that DJWest is very talented at reading the room and deciding which songs are best for the moment. He was also en excellent MC and kept the night and order of event moving smoothly. In addition, he also did the uplighting in the room which was a lovely soft white light during dinner and then he changed the colors while we were dancing to help the atmosphere feel more fun! He and his wife are a great team, and are also very responsive. They always answered our emails and questions very quickly, which really helped my wedding planning stress a lot! We had a wonderful experience, and would definitely recommend working with Westley and his wife for your wedding!!

I could cry thinking about how lucky we were to have DJ West and his wife, Shina, at our wedding! They are two incredible people, both super talented and personable. When you work with them, you get their all. They care. They want to make your wedding fun and awesome. DJ West seriously could not have done a better job at MCing, getting the crowd excited, and picking songs that make everyone move! If you want a wedding of a lifetime, book DJ West!!!

We were so happy with DJ West's services. He and his wife, Shina, were great about communicating with us before our wedding. We had multiple meetings leading up to our wedding day. It was great to be able to communicate what we wanted beforehand and allowed us to get to know each other before the wedding! They utilized a user-friendly app that let us select all of our music beforehand and add relevant notes. DJ West did an amazing job reading the crowd and getting them engaged on the dance floor. His MC services also really helped keep the day on schedule and make everyone aware of what was going on. We also contracted for a photo booth - which was a huge hit! Shina coordinated with us to create a template that matched our wedding colors and theme. We loved how quickly we received the digital copies of the photos. Overall, we had an amazing experience with DJ West and Shina. We really felt like they were our friends during this process, while still being professional and handling everything exactly how we wanted. Thank you so much DJ West and Shina!

DJ West is the best DJ in the 757! West & Shina truly are set apart from other DJ companies because they take the time to get to know you and your fiancé as a couple, not just as clients. I am a wedding coordinator/venue manager as well, so I know how important your DJ choice is for the overall feel of your wedding. Your DJ sets the tone for the night! DJ West did just that. Because of the meetings and forms we filled out, he knew exactly what my husband and I wanted our guests to feel- and how we wanted to celebrate! Due to COVID-19, we ended up having a very intimate wedding but that didn't stop DJ West from getting our guests to party! He had everyone on the dance floor the entire night. Do not hesitate to hire West & Shina for your party- they are 100% worth every penny!

DJ West and Shina are the dream team! They are so nice, professional and personable!! My wedding plans changed last minute and they both were so easy to work with and flexible with such a big change. DJ West knows how to keep the crowd entertained and on their feet!! I’ve had several people ask for his info so they can contact him for their next event!

When you're planning a wedding, there is nothing better than a husband and wife duo! They make such an amazing team and I loved working with each of them! I knew from our first meeting that they would be DJing my wedding! They helped made the planning process so simply and on our wedding day, you could tell they were prepared and knew what they were doing! Everything went so smoothly!! DJ West had my guest up and dancing the entire reception and he even danced with us!! He was so professional and friendly, everyone had an amazing time and even complimented me on the playlist he created! He truly helped made the night spectacular!! You cannot go wrong with DJ West and Shina!

Many people say the food, venue, attire and other things are what makes a wedding day. While this may be true, for us, the most important was finding an amazing DJ, because how the music makes you feel and speaks to couples, friends and families... that is what will be remembered forever! DJ West, his wife and even their sweet little boy showing up and boogying to the music made our wedding so amazing and unforgettable! When my husband and I first met them, we were sold immediately, because of their genuineness and character. Throughout the process, they were very patient, kind and supportive. Even during the crazy pandemic, they were an absolute rainbow during the 2020 storm! Please look no further. You've found the best right here. They are worth the investment, because they invest in you as a couple. Love you guys!!!

We had originally booked a different DJ, but they unfortunately double booked. Luckily for us, DJ West was one of their recommendations, and we could not have been happier with our experience. To this day, people are still talking about how awesome DJ West did at our wedding. He and his wife are so amazing and professional. I have never been to a wedding where so many guests were on the dance floor. He created such a great dance party atmosphere for our wedding and I can honestly say our wedding wouldn't have been the same without DJ West.
