From the first phone call we had with Nick, we knew that Impulse was going to be the DJ company we used for our wedding. The professionalism everyone from Impulse exudes is next level.
Nick and Karye helped with everything behind the scenes before handing our day off to Steve who took our music vision for the day and made it a reality - and then some! Steve made sure we were enjoying each aspect of our wedding: taking requests from us (and our guests), asking if we wanted a private last dance, and more.
10/10 would recommend Impulse Entertainment
Emily and I attended a friend's wedding that had a photo booth set up by Impulse DJs. When it came time for our wedding, we reached out to Nick and Susan. They not only set up an awesome photo booth experience for our wedding at Meson Sabika, but also furnished our Kowalczyks neon sign. Susan was our day of coordinator and she did an amazing job. We highly recommend Impulse DJs.
Thank you so so much for everything you guys were perfect! We are STILL getting so many compliments about you and how well you did, everyone loved you!
You were incredible, from the moment we first talked on the phone to the very last song on our wedding night! We can’t thank you enough for making the process so seamless and easy for us!
You are truly the best and we have already raved about you to our friends getting married this year, but every single. couple should have you at their wedding!!
Love Paige and Devin
Nick and John did an amazing job stepping up for us on our special day! Sound quality was great, the ceremony and reception were smooth, and everyone had nothing but good things to say about Impulse at the end of the night! We would highly recommend them to anyone!
We cannot recommend Impulse Entertainment enough!! Nick is an excellent communicator and truly cares for his couples. He helped us along the way and recommended the perfect DJ for us.
Justin was our DJ and he was incredible!! He’s professional, friendly, a great communicator, and an excellent DJ. He understood the assignment and delivered perfectly. We had such a wide range of music genres but he knows his stuff! He hit everything we wanted and needed. He had our drinks ready, was on top of all announcements, checked in with us throughout the night, and even took some last minute Romanian requests (difficult, I know) with no problem at all. I even had some pregnant guests tell me that they so wished their feet weren’t swollen so they could dance all night since our DJ was so good haha
Seriously though, we would recommend Impulse Entertainment to others and hire/go to any event that Justin is DJing.
Our daughter chose Impulse Entertainment to provide DJ services for her wedding. She also chose Nick Vera as the DJ – and he did not disappoint! The dance floor was never empty.
Nick was very easy to work with. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone was enjoying the night’s festivities. He outdid himself to make sure that the bride and groom had the day that they wanted.
We can’t say enough good things about Impulse Entertainment and Nick!
Nick and his team were the first vendors we booked once we set our wedding date! We knew we loved his style from my sisters wedding and we HAD to have them apart of our wedding day. He’s professional, so energetic, and goes above and beyond in every aspect! Nick and his team brought us our first drinks of the night, we’re so attentive to where my husband and I were during the reception - If we left the room for a moment, he didn’t play any of our requested songs he knew we’d want to be present for! The biggest compliment we receive from our wedding guests is still about Nick and the music - songs were played for just the right amount of time and he does an amazing job of keeping the energy up ALL NIGHT. One of my main goals for our reception was keeping the dance floor packed the whole time and Nick did just that. I honestly can’t say enough amazing things about Nick and his team at Impulse Entertainment. Impulse Entertainment is the vendor I recommend first to any of my friends once they get engaged. Thank you for giving us an amazing experience, Nick and team!
We recently engaged Impulse Entertainment to DJ for our wedding in Chicago. And from the very first call with Nick Vera I could tell that this entertainment group would be our perfect match. We recommend Impulse Entertainment 100%.
Nick and his team cover EVERY base from the ceremony to the reception, and they definitely made us feel comfortable and confident that everything would go perfect on our big day. And it did! That is why I am leaving a candid 5 star review.
We had Steve as our DJ at the wedding and he absolutely crushed it. We were honestly surprised with just how good he was. We provided a playlist of about 2 hours of music and he took that and mixed together 50-100+ songs of the same vibe into 1-3 minute tunes. This kept the dancefloor lively for literally the ENTIRE reception. Our friends were dancing and partying nonstop it was a blast. Several of my friends told us during the wedding how impressed they were with the music choices and our DJ, Steve.
And not only is Steve a terrific party director, he also was so kind and accommodating to us throughout the evening, asking us if we needed anything, how everything sounded, if we wanted a drink, etc. Just a very cool guy and would recommend him to DJ anything.
Thank you again Nick and Steve, you guys were outstanding and made our special day even better.
Nick went above and beyond at our wedding! Our guests could not stop raving about his exceptional vibes and he really knows how to get a party going! He was always prompt about sending monthly emails and it made planning a wedding way less stressful! We also had the photo booth which was run by his wife. Zero complaints!!
Impulse Entertainment was easily one of the best vendor decisions we made for our 10/19/24 wedding! From the moment we met with the owner, Nick Vera, on ZOOM who was so energetic, friendly, and easy to talk to, we knew we made the right decision. Nick made the planning process stress free by sending out monthly emails as to what tasks needed to be completed at what time. Those emails really helped us stay on track up to the day of our wedding. Nick met with us one more time a week before our wedding to go over the details in our planning portal to make sure he had all the little things correct such as the right pronunciations of our wedding party and any special dances we had planned.
We worked with DJ Gyl for our wedding, and he was OUTSTANDING! Gyl came early and was ready to go before our guests even arrived. Gyl even gave my seven year old nephew a shout-out and played his favorite song, "Shake it Off" by Taylor Swift to make him feel special! Gyl also played songs from Muse (my favorite band) and Alice in Chains (my husband's favorite band) during dinner which we both appreciated and made dinner fun. Gyl kept our dance floor filled all night long! Gyl did an amazing job reading the crowd and played music that all our guests could dance to! Our guests also LOVED the photo booth. The props were fun, the background was beautiful, and it was one of the biggest hits of the night!
Even after our wedding was over, Nick went out of his way to send my husband and I a personalized bottle of wine (we got engaged in Wine Country and went to the Pacific West for our honeymoon-details that Nick remembered off of our meetings) and thank you cards to both our parents and to us. Nick and Gyl made our wedding memorable and I would HIGHLY recommend Impulse Entertainment to any newlywed. They were wonderful to work with and you can tell they love what they do! Thank You Nick and Gyl! =D
Nick was truly phenomenal as our wedding DJ! From the very start, he went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, handling so many little details that made a big difference in our experience. He expertly helped our wedding party with their aisle walk, personally released tables for our buffet, and managed to create a flawless flow to our evening. Nick made sure my husband and I were totally stress-free by even arranging for our food and delivering drinks to us throughout the night.
In the planning process, he was just as amazing. During our phone calls and Zoom meetings, he walked us through each step with helpful insights and suggestions, making us feel incredibly confident and prepared. And with his energetic, positive attitude, Nick set an uplifting vibe that kept everyone excited and engaged. We couldn’t have imagined our day without his exceptional support and fantastic energy. Thank you, Nick, for making our wedding unforgettable!
We LOVED everything about Nick with Impulse Entertainment! From the very beginning he helped us with wedding planning and gave us an incredible night everyone is still talking about! Not only did he bring it with the songs but he went to my husband and I and our parents throughout the night updating us on what will be happening when, if the music was too loud at dinner, if we needed anything and so much more. I cannot recommend him enough!!!
Choosing Impulse Entertainment as the DJ company for our wedding on 10/19/24 was one of the best decisions my husband and I made! The owner, Nick Vera, was amazing to work with! He was super personable and organized, which made the planning process a breeze. He provided perfect recommendations for specific song choices and overall music genres and even sent out monthly email reminders on tasks that need to be completed. DJ Anthony was also amazing on our special day! He was on top of the timeline and consistently checked in with us throughout the day to make sure everything was running smoothly and played out as we'd hoped. Super friendly and kept the dance floor full all night long! I received many compliments from guests about how they'd never seen a dance floor so full so soon and full throughout the entire night! Definitely recommend this company and would choose them again and again!
We had an incredible experience with Impulse DJs and couldn't be more thrilled with how everything turned out. From the very beginning, Nick made the planning process smooth and stress-free, ensuring that every detail was tailored to our preferences. His communication was clear and timely, and he really took the time to understand the vibe we wanted for our event.
On the day of, Steve absolutely delivered! He was fantastic at reading the crowd and keeping the energy up all night. The music transitions were seamless, and he managed to mix in all of our requests while still keeping the flow perfect. Our guests couldn't stop raving about how much fun they had on the dance floor.
For us, having the right DJ was one of the most important aspects of the event, and Impulse DJs went above and beyond our expectations. If you're looking for a DJ service that truly listens to your vision and brings it to life, we wholeheartedly recommend Impulse DJs. They are professional, talented, and know exactly how to make your event unforgettable!
We were so lucky to book impulse. Meeting with Nick was easy and exciting, he was so helpful and really helped plan our day to be as seamless as possible. They have a wonderful website where if you like planning ahead, it’s your dream. They do a great job of letting you do a lot of the work independently, then meetings are efficient and used for clarifying purposes.
Nick was so great and he after a few meetings, assigned us a DJ that he could see us getting along with. He couldn’t have been more right. Justin was AMAZING! Always anticipating our next thoughts and he was great throughout the night. So many of our guests have reached out to us complimenting him and asking for his information.
They’re the best choice you could make on your special day!
Working with Impulse was an absolute dream for our wedding! The communication was outstanding from the moment we met with Nick and through the big day. So professional, friendly, and organized. Impulse's planning tools and reminders in the months leading up to our wedding WAS HUGE in keeping us on track with details for our ceremony and reception. Steve was our DJ and absolutely rocked it! Everyone had so much fun and we could not recommend Impulse enough!!! Thank you for making our day so special!!!
If I could give Impulse Entertainment a million stars I would!! We are so incredibly happy that we went with Impulse Entertainment for our wedding ceremony and reception. From the very beginning, Nick was so energetic and so helpful in planning our day, taking our vision and bringing it to life. Nick is so talented, passionate and dedicated! He checked up on us during the reception and made sure to let us know what was going to happen next during the reception which really meant a lot to us. All of our wedding guests had so many amazing comments about Nick and how much fun the night was as he kept us out on the dance floor! We didn't want the night to end! For couples looking for their wedding DJ look no further than Impulse Entertainment, they made our night truly so memorable!! From the bottom of our hearts Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
We hired Impulse Entertainment for our wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision! From the moment we reached out, they were incredibly professional and attentive to our needs. They took the time to understand our vision for the day and helped us create the perfect playlist that captured our style and vibe.
On the wedding day, Steve arrived early to set up and was ready to go well before our guests arrived. The music selection was spot-on, keeping our dance floor packed all night! They seamlessly blended different genres to cater to all our guests, and the energy in the room was electric.
Not only did they play great music, but Steve also kept the evening flowing smoothly with their excellent MC skills, making announcements and guiding us through the various events without missing a beat. Their friendly and engaging personality made everyone feel at ease, and it truly felt like they were a part of our celebration.
We received countless compliments from our guests about the music and the overall vibe. If you’re looking for a DJ who is talented, professional, and truly passionate about creating an unforgettable experience, look no further than Impulse Entertainment. We highly recommend them for any event, and we are so grateful they were a part of our special day!
Thank you for helping make our wedding unforgettable!
Having a DJ who could keep the party going all night was super important to my husband and I for our wedding-and DJ Nick at Impulse Entertainment went above and beyond to provide that! He is so organized, with a website that has monthly check-in’s, timelines for your ceremony and reception and a place to organize your music for the day (including playlists recommendations). He is the most personable DJ, and I truly felt like he cared about Matt and I’s wishes for the day. He brought us our first drinks as a married couple, helped bring us food and made sure we ate, and asked us throughout the night if we wanted any songs played. He sent us hype videos throughout our time of engagement, took pictures of our private last dance, got the crowd hype when we wanted them to be, and gathered them to pay attention during important speeches/dances. He smoothly kept our timeline on track and MC’d a cocktail style wedding flawlessly.
Like I said previously, the dance floor was POPPING all night. We had SO many wedding guests compliment him-saying how much fun they had, that he was the best wedding DJ they had ever seen and that they didn’t want to stop dancing! We have DJ Nick, his song choices and his smooth transitions from song to song, to thank for that. If you’re looking for the hands down BEST DJ in the Chicago area, 12/10-you should pick Nick Vera with Impulse Entertainment.
I can’t thank Impulse Entertainment enough for all the hard work they both put in to making our wedding day PERFECT! We have gotten SO MANY compliments on our music & photo booth since our wedding! The team is so amazing and I am happy that they were a part of our wedding day 😊 Everything they provided for us was perfect. From the initial booking process all the way through planning to the night of, the team was so easy and fun to work with. I would recommend Impulse Entertainment to any & every event!!
We had Nick Vera from the Impulse team DJ and handle lighting for our reception and can not say enough AMAZING things. We picked him after seeing him at a close friends' wedding and truthfully he ALWAYS. SHOWS. UP. He not only is incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire planning process (constantly checking in on how we're feeling, what he can take off our plate, etc.) but he knows how to keep a crowd on the dance floor. We also had a saxophone player and live drummer, which honestly we were a bit nervous on how they would all mesh having never worked together before, but I can not tell you how AMAZING it was. Nick coordinated all of the prep work behind the scenes with the two live musicians (taking a LOT off of our plate) and ultimately worked in with them effortlessly on the night of the wedding. Nick also was getting us drinks and checking on us throughout dinner. Nick provided details I never would have imagined DJs could offer and I can't verbalize enough how grateful we are we went with him. Lastly, my (now husband!) and I were originally hesitant on paying the extra $$$ to have Nick Vera himself - but honestly would have paid more if we did it all over again that's how valuable it was in my eyes to have!!
We had an INCREDIBLE and intimate wedding of 60, thanks in large part to the amazing dedication, professionalism and heart of Impulse Entertainment! Nick and John are two of the kindest souls I have ever worked with, who truly cared and went to great lengths to make sure our vision and venue restrictions were equally met and surpassed. Their portal was so easy to use, they were able to find very specific music for us, clean up YouTube edits of unrecorded songs and play them as if you had the most epic Spotify playlist pre-loaded, made excellent suggestions for the event day of, added some gorgeous music to our pre-picked playlists and the level of detail is unrivaled!!! Very special shout out to Nick- who helped me pull of an incredible surprise for my now husband-Nick made it so we could surprise him by having my stepsons walk me down the aisle at the last minute by creating a pause in my entrance song, and cuing it up exactly at the moment where the lyric says “take my hand”…as the kids took my hands 🥹 I can’t think about that incredible moment of unity we were able to share without thinking of Nick.
If you don’t choose Impulse for your event, you are missing out and will not receive this level of care from anyone else. Thank you Nick and John-you will forever be a part of our story 💕
Impulse DJ's was truly such an amazing company to work with. Nick worked so closely with us to create our dream wedding day. He was as excited as we were for our big day. He sent us monthly emails to check in with us and make sure we were on track. He made the whole process much less stressful and more enjoyable. Our DJ Steve, was AMAZING. He was so lively and outgoing during the whole day. He played all of our songs exactly as requested from the ceremony to our last dance song. He kept our guests entertained and on our feet the ENTIRE night. There was not a moment when the dance floor was empty. Steve helped keep us on track during the day and checked in with my husband and me all day long. He guided our parents and siblings through our speeches. I would highly recommend using this company for your DJ services. I cannot stop watching our reception videos back. Just AMAZING.Thank you Steve and Nick for everything.
I would recommend Nick from impulse DJ’s for ANY wedding, especially if your friends/family love dancing. We got so many compliments on the music. He was so easy to work with, always making sure we had what we needed and hyped us up so much!
Impulse Entertainment was absolutely fantastic! John was our DJ and he helped make our wedding day one of the best days of our lives. He had the timeline down perfectly and was able to keep people of all ages on the dance floor. He was energetic, fun, and made sure the whole night went smoothly. We had so many friends and family members tell us it was the best dance floor they’d ever been to. Nick was amazing with coordination. He answered all of our questions promptly and gave great advice about all aspects of wedding planning - more than just music! We’d book John and Impulse Entertainment again in a heartbeat and definitely recommend them to anyone looking to make their event amazing!
My coworker is an event planner and recommended Impulse DJs. From the start, Nick was friendly, thorough and helpful. Impulse DJs has great resources for reception planning.
Steve was our DJ and did an absolutely terrific job. He read the room and kept the dancing going, aligning the music with the genres we had requested but also ensuring that everyone kept having fun on the dance floor. Throughout the reception, people kept complimenting us on how great the DJ was.
Steve was responsive and flexible throughout the night (we finished dinner early, so we moved the dances to start sooner than scheduled). Now that it's been a few weeks, we've continued to get compliments from our guests on how great our DJ was and how much fun they had. We even learned that more than one guest invited Steve to our after party!
We are so happy with our decision to go with Steve and Impulse DJs. I cannot recommend them enough!
Nick and Impulse entertainment absolutely was the right choice for our wedding. Nick basically ran the show making sure all details were taken care of and giving us the confidence the day was going to be great!!
The approach he took to making sure the dance floor was full the entire wedding was perfect! All our friends commented on how great it was!
10/10 would recommend!
Nick was absolutely FANTASTIC. We loved his energy, he went above and beyond in every way, and he was extremely communicative. Nick's ability to read the dance floor and choose appropriate songs is incredible. He even humored us with a silly last song request. He truly helped to make our special day even more special.
Look no more!! He is the real deal!!
Nick Vera/ImpulseDJ was the first DJ we talked to for our daughter's wedding in 2017 and in 2024 our youngest daughter almost changed her wedding date around his availability. That is the truth.
His energy is unbeatable and the more the crowd responds, the more excited he gets in keeping guests on the dance floor.
He is a joy to work with and any couple who has worked with him would say the same. He adjusts to their music requests and will not play a "must-play" song of the couple unless they're both on the dance floor. You feel like you are a guest of his as he takes care of the bridal party and parents during dinner, whether it's getting drinks or checking if there is anything you need.
100% guarantee you will not be disappointed. These 3 couples and at least one more friend who has used him would agree.
Only problem is we're out of daughters getting married! ;-)
Nick is the best!!
Book Impulse Entertainment for your wedding NOW because they were FANTASTIC. We had Nick as our wedding DJ and from our very first phone conversation with him to the execution on our wedding day, we were thoroughly impressed by him and his whole team. Nick was more expensive to have DJ our wedding than others on the team, but my husband and I still to this day believe that it was worth EVERY penny. Nick is professional, EXCELLENT at what he does (he found obscure music we wanted to have played at our reception), unbelievably kind (the encouraging texts and emails were the BEST), and puts so much energy and thoughtfulness into what he does (he clarified countless times all the names of everyone in our party so that they would get the correct recognition they deserved). ALL of our guests commented on how awesome of a DJ he was from his MC responsibilities to the variety of music he played at our wedding. Nick paid attention to our vision and our needs and went above and beyond to make it happen just like we wanted. We are extremely grateful for Nick and the whole Impulse Entertainment team and would recommend them to ANYONE who needs an outstanding DJ for their wedding!
Our entire experience with Impulse for our wedding this past June was beyond perfect. Nick was great at communicating throughout the entire process! He checked in with us multiple times leading up to our wedding and made sure to answer any questions. The day of the wedding went so smoothly. Our guests were on the dance floor until the end of the night and kept telling us how great the DJ was!
Impulse Entertainment is the best! Nick was incredibly helpful in the months leading up to our big day, sending regular communications each month with reminders and information to help us stay on track. He constantly checked in to see how he could assist us. On the actual day, John and Susan were absolutely incredible. They truly helped make our wedding day as smooth as possible! They were very helpful in the planning process and supported us every step of the way. Throughout the reception, John skillfully read the crowd, ensuring our guests danced all night. Susan did an incredible job managing the photo booth, helping guests take fantastic pictures. Thank you both so much for making our night unforgettable!
Impulse Entertainment truly made our wedding day extraordinary! From the moment we met Nick, we knew we were in good hands. Not only did they provide top-notch DJ services and an amazing photo booth, but having Nick officiate our ceremony was the icing on the cake. We had several meetings with Nick beforehand, and the customer portal made it incredibly convenient to curate our own playlists.
The ceremony was nothing short of magical. Nick's attention to detail and ability to incorporate elements that reflected both my wife and me made it truly special. We've received countless compliments from our guests, with many saying it was the best ceremony they've ever witnessed. It was a perfect blend of laughter, tears, and heartfelt moments.
Nick's talent extended to the dancefloor, where he effortlessly kept the energy high all night long. In fact, our guests were having so much fun that they tried to extend the reception just to keep dancing! And Susan, who managed the photo booth, went above and beyond her duties, even lending a hand to help bustle my wife's dress.
We can't thank Impulse Entertainment enough for making our wedding day unforgettable. They exceeded our expectations in every way, and we couldn't have asked for a better team to help us celebrate this special occasion.
Billy was amazing!!! So attentive and made asure everything was on time. I will 100 percent recommend impulse to anyone looking for a DJ.
We found Nick from Impulse Entertainment DJs through two friends who recommended him. We also attended a wedding that Nick DJ'ed. My wife and I recalled being SO impressed by the excellent music and how he hyped the crowd. After working with Nick, we completely understand why everyone raves about him. Nick was so easy to work with and very responsive to any questions we had. Every call with Nick left us more excited about our big day.
Impulse Entertainment DJs sends step by step reminder emails to help you remember what you should have done by when and to keep you on track. They also have a wonderful, user friendly, online planning tool. It broke down which songs can go where, allowed us to easily sort what we wanted to listen to when, and even had suggested song playlists to help us pick songs for special moments. The planning tool also included tips and things to remember about the wedding in general. It was all so helpful and easy to use.
On the day, everyone from the guests to our vendors raved about how great Nick was. He elevated our wedding planning experience every step of the way so it was no surprise that he delivered on our wedding day!
Nick did a great job getting a flow going, incorporating our international customs / non-english music, and reading the room of what everyone wanted.
We loved working with Nick and 100% recommend him and his team!
We hired Impulse Entertainment to DJ our wedding ceremony and reception. They were awesome and did not disappoint! Nick was our main contact throughout the planning process. In the 3 months leading up to our wedding, we had periodic updates to make sure the planning process was on track. They have an online planning portal that was easy to use and very helpful. John was the actual DJ for our event and rocked it! Super nice guys who know what they're doing and how to rock a party. I highly recommend! I had mixed feelings about getting uplighting, but was so glad we added that to the package. It really did make a difference!
You can stop hunting and just book Nick and his phenomenal team now. I am a dancer and my groom is a live music/ DJ snob and Impulse Entertainment blew our expectations out of the water. Planning was a pleasure and Nick is an absolute expert. He thought of things in the planning process that even my wedding planner didn't ask and he helped me figure out the best answers for me. I was really worried about how to blend my favorite country music with my groom's favorite EDM music but Nick and his on-site DJ John made it look easy. His equipment, both sound and lighting, were impressive and made our dance floor the place to be. DJ John was the perfect MC for the night, even with my crazy family. Thank you Nick & John for giving me, my groom and our families the most unforgettable celebration of our lives.
We found this company through our photographer. She said it is the company she hired for her wedding, and, after working with them, I completely understand why. Nick was so easy to work with and very responsive to any questions we had. The company sends helpful reminder emails to help you remember what you should have done by when and to keep you on track. They also provide a wonderful online planning tool. It broke down which songs can go where, allowed us to easily sort what we wanted to listen to when, and even had suggested song playlists to help us pick songs for special moments. The planning tool also included tips and things to remember about the wedding in general. It was all so helpful and easy to use. On the day, John was great. He did a great job getting a flow going and reading the room of what everyone wanted. We loved working with them!
Look no further. You’ve found your DJ.
Nick is not only a phenomenal human, but an amazing talented DJ.
Nick knows the wedding industry, he helped guide us through every aspect of the day. He let us get as specific as we wanted for certain parts of the day, and then knew us well enough after our meeting that he handled the rest. He knew how to read the room, and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. Seriously, the floor was PACKED! 3 weeks later, and I am getting so many compliments on my amazing DJ. He had HELPFUL relevant advice about the entire planning process. The most amazing hype man. His wife Susan did our photo booth and she was amazing as well. Such kind people. They genuinely cared about us and our wedding. He checked on us all night long, we love nick so much. Hands down the best. Do yourself a favor, and have Nick at your wedding.
Impulse Entertainment was so terrific and is unrivaled. From in-depth meetings leading up to the wedding, to the attention to detail the day of, to the communications following the wedding, we are so pleased. We, as well as many guests that attended our wedding, were so impressed with how well Nick managed it all. He goes far beyond his work with the dance floor and music and ensured that the event ran smoothly as a whole. He was always where you needed him before you even knew you needed his support there. This allowed us to fully be present and enjoy our day that much more! We highly recommend Impulse Entertainment for your event!
We could not have been more grateful for Nick's above and beyond DJ service at our wedding. So many of our guests remarked at what a great range of music he played and our dance floor was always full. But what really makes Nick stand out is his customer service, from pre-wedding planning meetings to the day of, Nick could not have been more attentive and accommodating of our ideas and requests. On our wedding day, he checked in with us, our parents, and the folks giving speeches several times to make sure everyone was ready to go and tracking on timing. Honestly, go with Nick. You won't find a better DJ.
Where do I even begin with my review on Nick from Impulse Entertainment!!!!
When you are finding vendors for the most special day of your life, it’s a lot of pressure. You are trusting someone with your vision and to help make your wedding run as smooth as possible.
We hired Nick, from Impulse Entertainment, and right away we knew we found someone who was so much more than a DJ and entertainer!
From the very beginning of the wedding planning process, Nick was nothing but amazing to work with. He was so quick to respond to emails and was always ready and available to help! He made this entire process so easy!!
During the reception, Nick and his wife Susan were so kind, attentive, and truly brought the party to the reception! All of our friends and family kept making comments on how amazing both of them were and how much they loved the music and photo booth! They truly both brought the party to the reception 100%%%%!!!
Throughout the night, Nick frequently checked in on us and always made sure we had a full drink in hand!
My now- husband and I are procrastinators (I know every vendors worst nightmare LOL) and Nick was always willing to help and give us ideas! Even on the actual wedding day, we had some last minute changes and Nick and Susan jumped right in and didn’t skip a beat. We truly could not have asked for a better duo team!!!
I could not recommend Impulse Entertainment enough!! If you are looking for a DJ who truly cares about his clients, who will take time to listen to you and your wants, and who will constantly go above and beyond to give you the wedding reception of your party dreams, then Nick is your guy!!! We are forever grateful for him and Susan!!
Where to begin WHERE TO BEGIN. Honestly, whoever is reading this… you have stumbled across this amazing review for a reason. This. Is. A. Sign.
Book Impulse Entertainment NOW!!!!
Nick has been THE BEST throughout our entire wedding planning journey! Mind you, I just got married 2 days ago. I NEEDED to write this review now because, although you have amazing reviews already, mine needed to be shared too 😉
Nick is so organized and has helped me with everything wedding related! Not only was he our DJ, but he acted as a wedding coordinator as well! His planning portal is so on point and so self explanatory that you will feel so at ease knowing everything you want to hear while on the dance floor WILL happen. He was our hype man and truly made our entire wedding experience phenomenal!
Not only did we have an amazing DJ, we also purchased the Photo Booth package! AND LET ME TELL YOU THE QUALITY OF THESE PICTURES…..I felt like a Kardashian LOL
Pictures were sent to everyone’s phones and Susan was a blast to work with!
So hear me out; not only will you get a Phenomenal DJ, Spectacular Photo-booth, but you will also get people who CARE about you and want you to have a great time at your wedding!
BOOK NICK NOW!!
Nick and Susan, we love you guys! Thank you for everything and thank you for making our wedding more than we could imagine!!!!♥️
Nick was by far the best vendor we chose for our wedding! We received monthly reminders about what we should be working on and what we should have completed in previous months. I wish more vendors would have this! He checked in with us regularly before the wedding and even during the wedding making sure we had everything we needed! Soo many of our guests said how awesome of a DJ he was (the playlist was amazing!) and wished they had him for their wedding. We also added the photo booth and everyone loved it! Everything was absolutely amazing and I cannot recommend Impulse Entertainment enough!!
Impulse Entertainment was easily our favorite vendor!!
- incredibly involved and helpful
- execution was amazing
- process was largely smooth
- We never felt any pressure (it never felt forced, etc.)
- We appreciate the high energy and enthusiasm
- Nick DJ'd our wedding (highly recommend going with Nick!) and it was better than we could have imagined!
We are so happy we chose Impulse Entertainment for our wedding. We’ve heard nothing but great things from our guest and a few even asked for their information!
Nick Vera was so on top of it. He was professional, motivating, and comforting at the same time. We never felt overwhelmed planning the day with him, and he always kept the energy high which we appreciated so much! The Photo Booth was amazing as well. Such great quality photos on there and with Susan attending it the whole time made things so easy for all our guests.
Everything felt organized with the monthly email reminders telling us what we should be doing each month. The website is very simple and user friendly. The couple of calls we had were very helpful and we always felt better after them feeling like a lot of progress was made each time.
We have nothing but great things to say about Nick Vera and Impulse Entertainment. Amazing night all around. We appreciate all their help and being a part of it. Keep up the great work!
10/10 would recommend for a wedding reception! Guests were on the dance floor all night. Nick was awesome at hearing our requests and truly personalized the playlist to fit our preferences. Nick was highly organized and continually kept an eye on the timeline to ensure everything was running smoothly. Amazing job!
Impulse Entertainment is hands down THE BEST! We had Nick as our DJ for our wedding in October and he was amazing! Highly recommend to anyone looking for an awesome wedding DJ or DJ for any event. He has the best energy and made sure we had the best day ever! He was also so easy to work with and super responsive which we greatly appreciated! We also had the photo booth which was a super fun element that our guests loved. Thank you so much Nick & Impulse Entertainment for making our wedding day perfect! We can't thank you enough!
My wife and I were married October 13, 2023, but our DJ vendor, Impulse Entertainment, started working on our wedding months in advance. We had multiple planning calls and emails with owner, Nick Vera, in the months leading up to our date and his enthusiasm and positivity made the process fun and easy. Nick walked us through Impulse Entertainment’s various packages and ala carte services to make sure we got exactly what we needed for our big day without price gouging us with unnecessaries and extras. He’s truly an honest man who understands the stress of weddings and wants to take off as much from your plate as possible.
As far as planning, Impulse Entertainment’s wedding website was easy to use and fully integrated our Spotify playlists. This ensured that the precise versions of the songs we wanted were played and was as easy as adding songs to a playlist during our morning commutes.
The package we went with also came with a photo booth and we as well as our guests were extremely impressed with the set-up. Not only did we have the booth, but we had an attendant (Susan) present on our wedding day, the booth automatically printed photos for our guests and could also send them directly to our guests’ cell phones. Susan set up the entire booth and seamlessly helped our guests figure out the technology. Not only this, but we had digital copies of all the photos within 48 hours of our day.
Finally, the day of our wedding our DJ Steve checked in early and was the first to bring us our drinks after the ceremony making sure we had a drink even though we had to take photos during cocktail hour. This was just the start, Steve checked in multiple times throughout the night, respected our wishes to not have song requests, nailed our ceremony and walk-in reception music, and overall kept our friends and family dancing until the very end. He even last minute stayed an extra half hour for us when we did not realize our contract called for a shorter time than we remembered and wanted the party to continue.
If you want first-class service for not just your big day, but the months leading up, don’t hesitate to book Impulse Entertainment.
Impulse Entertainment exceeded our expectations from the very beginning of wedding planning! My husband and I met Nick at a friends wedding he was DJing for over 2 years before our wedding. From our experience that night, we knew we had to book Impulse for our wedding! Impulse was one of our first vendors we made sure to secure and we are SO happy we did! Nick was so genuine and communicative throughout the entire wedding planning process - sending detailed checklists and planning tools that helped organize the ceremony and reception without being overwhelming. We ended up booking our photo booth through Impulse as well, and again were so thankful we did! The whole process was seamless leading up to our big day - both Nick and Susan helped answer any and all questions we had and were extremely personable! On our wedding day we had Oliver as our DJ and Nate as our photo booth attendant, both of them were absolutely AMAZING! Entertaining the crowd on and off the dancer floor all night! Nate made sure to get everyone he could in the photo booth and the results were awesome - we also received the full album of photos immediately which was so fun to look at the next day. Oliver kept the party going with perfect transitions from songs and genres, he appealed to every age group we had, and followed our playlists requests! He read the room very well and did an excellent job announcing the entire night. Overall, I cannot say enough positive things about Impulse - from planning to partying they have got you covered!
Nick and Impulse Entertainment helped make our wedding amazing! From the very beginning Nick was willing to help us and answer all of our questions. Very professional and all our guests had a blast dancing all night long. We received so many compliments about how great our DJ was. I would highly recommend Impulse Entertainment.
Impulse Entertainment was recommended to us from our wedding venue. We hired Nick to be our DJ for the wedding. He went above and beyond to ensure the planning process was simple and easy. He was there every step of the way when we had questions and he was quick to respond to help us ensure we had the perfect songs picked out. The wedding day was absolutely perfect. He ensured we stayed on a timely schedule. He also made sure not only my husband and I were taken care of but also our parents. He kept the party going and we received so many compliments from our guests about how great Nick was. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ and DJ company. Nick went above and beyond from day one to ensure our wedding day was the best!
Nick was a DREAM to work with! My now husband and I could not have expected anything better truly. We used Nick and his company for our DJ and Photo Booth services for our September 2023 wedding. Nick was very prompt during all communications for the year and a half before our wedding. I also noticed he just seemed excited to talk to us, excited to talk about our event. That did not go unnoticed!
We wanted a true master of ceremonies and he really delivered! We were recommended Nick’s company and it did not disappoint at all. I am so so grateful we chose him for our wedding.
Creating our personalized playlists for both the ceremony and reception was very easy using his programs. I also loved how detailed it was. Every single thing was thought of - our entire day was planned out.
Day off, Nick was wonderful, as we thought! He was so kind and on top of it. We had zero issues and guests were coming up to us all night saying how amazing he was. Everything went great day off and he really went above and beyond to make sure my now husband and I were happy and doing okay. He even brought us waters a few times while we were taking photos! That was just so thoughtful, and unheard of. Even our
photographers commented how great he was.
During our reception he continually kept in contact with us, letting us know where we were with timing, and making sure we were able to eat both our dinners and cake! Everyone said we wouldn’t get to eat at our wedding, but Nick made sure we were well taken care of.
We also used his company for the Photo Booth service and it was perfect! We got to customize the backdrop and the photo printout was amazing quality. Not to mention we got a printout book of every photo taken that night! It was so sweet.
If you are looking for a DJ who is going to go above and beyond for you, GO WITH NICK!!!! You won’t have to worry about a thing at your wedding. We are so grateful to him for his hard work and kind attitude.
There is nothing my husband and I would have changed about our experience. Nick was such a great help - he gave guidance through the entire planning process and answered all our different questions which helped immensely! He’s definitely the reason our day ran so smoothly and stuck to the timeline!
We appreciated everything and would definitely recommend Nick and his awesome energy!!
Impulse Entertainment DJ Anthony and photobooth manager Susan were AMAZING for our Sept. 2, 2023 wedding! Anthony *somehow* perfectly combined our pop, country, and Persian music that we wanted played at our wedding, and the dance floor was full the entire night as a result!
We were set up for success from the beginning with Impulse's founder, Nick Vera, who personally handled all of our email communications, phone calls, Zooms, etc. leading up to the day. His experience really made a difference and I appreciated how he took the initiative to reach out to different vendors to introduce the company before the wedding in case they needed to collaborate on anything. Basically, Nick is also AMAZING!
I liked that the "photobooth" they provide wasn't so much a little booth, but rather a nice (large!) backdrop with good lighting, and it was staffed by the wonderful Susan! She made sure we were ready for the photos and Impulse brought good props as well. We chose the "print-out" style (vs online delivery) for the photos, and we loved receiving an unexpected photo album that guests had signed and included their photo strips in. This worked out well because Impulse/Susan always printed at least 2+ copies of all photo strips!
DJ Anthony also provided the audio for the ceremony, pre-ceremony music, and cocktail hour music. Everything with that went pretty smoothly. There were a couple times when the officiant's audio was a little shaky (not sure why), but it recovered quickly.
We also really liked the online interface that Impulse has clearly spent a lot of time creating and perfecting to help clients organize their music choices (pre-ceremony, ceremony, etc.) and "must play" "try to play" and "do not play".
All in all, nothing but good feedback!
Thank you, Nick, Anthony, and Susan :)
Impulse Entertainment, specifically Nick Vera, was the best DJ we could have asked for! Every step of the process, whether it was planning or the actual day of operation, Nick supported us 110% and kept things on track. He went ABOVE AND BEYOND as our DJ and we are extremely grateful. Nick has a certain energy that is unmatched!
We received numerous compliments about Impulse Entertainment/Nick throughout our wedding night. Nick definitely kept the party moving and energy high throughout the night. Believe it or not, that’s the most I’ve seen our parents/grandparents on the dance floor, ever!
If you want a DJ that is going to meet every expectation you have and then some, book with Nick Vera at Impulse Entertainment today!

To be honest, we were a tad worried getting a DJ named "Billy"
Billy ruled. Billy nailed wedding party name pronunciation correctly the first time and made sure to get it right. Billy NAILED the timing, cutting, vibe... from our first dance to our last dance, Billy was 10/10.
We also got the photobooth through this vendor as well. The owners wife ran it, again, I am from a family business so that can go one of two ways. She was spectacular and kept people wanting to go to the booth all night!
Nick does have a little bit of a Radio Personality™ (which kind of hits oddly bc of his age) but he runs a great group with some solid employees!
We have nothing but great things to say about our experience with Nick as our DJ. Nick is the owner of Impulse and we were lucky enough to be able to book him. Nick went above and beyond for us, in the few meetings leading up to the event he was attentive and very detail oriented--even helped us solidify a timeline like he was our planner! On the day of the wedding, he met with us instantly when we got to the venue--grabbing us drinks, making sure we ate (KEY). We felt so taken care of by him, something that I was not expecting from a DJ. Our dance floor was POPPIN, incorporating the music we love to keep our guests dancing the night away. Our guests raved Nick all night, saying his energy was unmatched whether on the mic or behind the computer/turn table. Thank you for making our day so special and so FUN!
If I could give 10 stars my husband and I would! Nick was so wonderful to work with while planning our wedding. He helped give us direction with day of scheduling which was so helpful. When it came to the day of he did an amazing job keeping us and our guest informed with everything that was happening. He got us drinks, food, checked on us, and even did things like find our photographer or people we were looking for. His energy was exactly what we were looking for, for our backyard reception. Our guest said he felt like a part of the family. Absolutely the dj you have to go with for your wedding or special event!!
Nick is such an amazing DJ. It was so easy working with him and he responded so quickly to any questions we may have. He went above and beyond with MCing on the wedding day and making sure we were well taken care of. He would always check in with me and my husband to make sure if we needed anything. Everyone loved the music and the transitions. Susan helped with the photobooth and everyone loved the photos. The lighting was great and they also provided an guestbook to attach the photos. We loved the props and it was definitely a great addition to the wedding. We would totally recommend Nick and Susan for anyone who is looking into hiring DJs or photobooths!!! Honestly can't say enough great things about them!
