Lutz Entertainment

id, it really helped him get an insight as to what kind of music we like and are into, and we were able to pick and create our playlist with him. He walked us through the event and helped us pick out the perfect song for each occasion. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone, we are so happy with our choice to have him as our DJ! He really did such a great job!

d Jimmy helped make that come true-- even down to the specific timing of the introduction songs! I came in with a list of songs that I asked him to play, but even if you don't know exactly what you want, you can trust Jimmy to choose some bangers that will keep the party going! At our consultation meeting, Jimmy even assured us that he would always double check with one of us if a request came in that we hadn't approved-- and the night of, he did! It was great to know that he would check in with us. He did an outstanding job and helped make our wedding memorable and an awesome time! I loved his philosophy that you have to set the tone at the cocktail hour-- get the good vibes started early so that people are primed to get up and dance once the party really gets going. Friends and family raved about how much fun they had dancing and how much they loved the playlist. My husband and I still talk about how much we loved Jimmy! 10/10, we wholeheartedly recommend him!!

ming!) wedding planning process. Suddenly I felt like we had an ally in the process, who could help us along the way. His years of experience allows him to understand instinctually all the dynamics of weddings and events and to know what's needed when. He can "read a crowd" for sure! and knows there are people of all ages there to appeal to. He patiently reviewed all of our song ideas and listened closely to understand the type of event and feeling we were hoping to create. He was a great emcee too. Best of all- when I wanted to surprise my husband with an Elvis impersonator and to get our guests dancing to some fun songs together- picture a "kick line" to Sinatra's "New York New York"!, he shared lots of ideas to help make it happen successfully. It went off with out a hitch! And our guests can't stop talking about what fun the party was. He also provided us with a super helpful guide and song ideas for each step of the wedding and reception process and he was always available to take our questions. Jimmy was a vital member of our wedding team!

could have made. Our guests were blown away with the great mix of old and new, and the last song of the night just sealed it for everyone! Jimmy is such a personable, kind, and talented person, I would (and have) recommended him to other friends and people I know getting married. Jimmy provided the music for our ceremony, played acoustic guitar at our cocktail hour (AMAZING!) and was incredible at the reception. You will not be disappointed. We had nothing to worry about the day of our wedding :)

and to keep everyone on the dance floor all night. Jimmy played songs for every age group and the floor was packed with all of our guests even before the sun set and until last call. He was so considerate for our announcements, parent dances, reminders, and taking cues like a pro. He even approached us to make sure we were comfortable with certain details. He was a kind, considerate, music wizard, consummate professional. I cannot recommend him enough for your special occasion!!

f our wedding. He had us laughing and jamming out during our meeting a few weeks before the event and he had great insights and tips about how to have a fun evening that went smoothly! He did a great job coordinating with our venue staff to execute the timeline of our night and we didn't have to worry about a single thing, we were able to let loose and enjoy the night. And in addition to being such a great professional, he's an even more awesome DJ!! Just by providing a general genre list and a small list of our favorite songs, Jimmy was able to provide a great set throughout the night and kept the dance floor full all the way through!

ed with Jimmy that my husband I are old souls and liked older music that our parents grew up on. I could tell from Jimmy's website that his taste in music was right up our alley. Steve and I wanted our night filled with classic rock and classic songs that all our guests could dance to. Jimmy could read the crowd and kept them dancing all night. Jimmy is also a very talented musician himself and sung classics like the Beatles, Elton John at our cocktail hour. This acoustic cocktail hour was unique and our guests loved it. The highlight of the night was when I asked Jimmy if my brother could perform karaoke of LA Woman. Jimmy didn't hesitate and provided my brother a microphone. Jimmy helped make our wedding night one we would never forget and we can't thank him enough.

ized to our taste and style. Jimmy was so warm during our listening party and really let us share a bit of ourselves through our musical tastes. We worked together on every detail and we even found a way to infuse some songs into the night to honor my late mother in a celebratory way. His ability to handle something delicate like that so gracefully is something that I am forever grateful for. It's very clear this man loves his job and just wants to see everyone happy and celebrating. Our guests are still raving about our wedding and had such a blast on the dance floor! 10/10 would recommend. Best DJ, could not have gone better. Forever a Jimmy Lutz fan.

about making sure our family and friends had a good time while still being safe. Jimmy was easy to work with due to all the changes we had to make and read the room perfectly to ensure our guests had a great time. He was professional, fun and overall a great guy! Jimmy was also great about helping us select the perfect songs even though going in we were very indecisive! I would definitely recommend him!

the ultimate master of ceremonies. He had many of the guests wanting to be on the dance floor and his music was just right for the occasion. Highly recommend using Lutz Entertainment.

we have a "listening date" where we spend time together selecting music for the wedding. This was such a sweet and important idea and helped us slow down a little during the busy planning stages. Prior to the day, we skyped with Jimmy and reviewed all of our song choices, what time to start the song on and what time to end it, as well as described our music tastes to him. Jimmy was very open to our suggestions, and got a good sense of our eclectic taste very quickly. He was open to downloading music that he did not already have, and incorporated all of the songs we requested. When a song request came in that he was not sure that I would approve (I had asked for no slow songs but someone requested Sinatra), he checked with me before playing it and it turned out to be a big hit! He read the room and kept people dancing all night. One of the things that Jimmy said during our first conversation that really sold me was that he "lets the music speak for itself." He worked with my cousin who emcee'd the wedding, and was willing to make announcements, but was very much in the background, letting the music take center stage. As a music lover, I really appreciate this and think that he did his job perfectly.

our cocktail hour and it was just what we were looking for. Thanks, Jimmy!

nd he knows people; this combination helps him adapt to couples of all stripes. Lutz was eager to hear our vision and preferences, and he matched them perfectly. He set the perfect tone for our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and (most importantly!) dancing! Lutz knows how to draw guests to the dance floor, and keep them there! Our dance floor was teeming with energy and fun the whole night. Whether you know a lot about the music you want or you’re seeking the expertise of an experienced guide, Lutz can help you throw the party you want!

re, which is what we were looking for, especially with so many other things going on. As soon as we started explaining our musical tastes at our first meeting (my husband and I have very different interests musically), Jim gave suggestions that were seamless to our initial playlist ideas; providing things we didn't even think of! He's so much more than "just a DJ". He helped us to plan from before the ceremony, all the way through the reception. Even right down to the day of, he kept everything moving smoothly, even helping me to relax when rain was suddenly in the forecast! He was truly an asset to our team, working well with the other vendors and keeping our wants and needs at the forefront of the night. We didn't want any requests (unless they were a good fit into what was already playing, fully trusting Jim with the decision) and he did a great job of honoring that, without being abrasive to our guests. If we could recommend Lutz Entertainment 1000x over, we would. If you are looking for a super knowledgable, friendly guy who provides exceptional entertainment keeping your guests talking about how much fun they had at your wedding, look no further! Jimmy is your guy and we can't thank him enough for everything!

my does all of those things, and more! We couldn't have been more pleased with his professionalism, with his song selection, and most importantly with the fact that he was able to keep our guests dancing the entire night.

r the night. His experience as a musician allowed him to be in tune with the guests all night and played the best songs at all the right moments. He was very helpful and accommodating to help us plan the night before hand. All around, couldn’t have asked for anything more!

tos but I heard lots of compliments from our guests. Everyone was dancing until the last shuttle bus arrived. He was very easy to work with and went out of his way to make sure our night was perfect - even running to get the photographer when there was photo-worthy excitement on the dance floor. He was very quick to respond to emails/questions and very flexible during he planning stages. Night of, he was early, all his equipment worked perfectly, he was very friendly and did an excellent job.

d about playing dinner games, and had this comforting work style that made me happy to chat with him. I never actually met or saw Jimmy in person before our wedding, but I never had a single doubt about him. I liked how on our (fairly long!) introductory call he really took time to get to know my husband and me. He really got me thinking about what kind of music we wanted to hear at our wedding, the range of styles we wanted to hear, and got a sense for who we were as people. After we booked him, he gave us our "homework" of going through the top 100 wedding songs and crossing out anything we didn't want to hear and marking anything that was a must play. We did this on a road trip and we just destroyed that list. I almost felt badly handing him this list with so much crossed off, but it didn't phase him in the least. The best part about Jimmy is that he also is a phenomenal guitar player. We were able to have him do guitar for cocktail hour, which I really loved. He could also do that for a ceremony as well! Jimmy handled our pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour (guitar), dinner, and party music flawlessly. One of my wedding memories is when I was with my bridesmaids waiting to head out to the ceremony and I could hear the (relatively obscure) music I had chosen playing. It was this amazing moment when I realized that everything had come together and the music played a big role in that. Jimmy honored some pretty unique wishes we had too: cuing up a random Mowglis song as our recessional to avoid a weird part, playing plenty of Phish tracks, and even finding a particular Grateful Dead cover of "I Bid You Goodnight (live from Albany, NY) to play as our closing song. To the best of my memory (it goes so fast!) I heard everything I wanted to hear. I had the greatest time dancing with my husband and my friends, as did everyone else. We struck this perfect balance between good music that meant something to us, and just plain fun. Jimmy also handled requests like a champ! He also successfully stalled for our first dance when it came quicker than I realized and I needed an extra minute. By the end of the night, people wanted his name and our venue had already spoken with him about working with him in the future. If you are looking for a "non-cheesy" DJ, book Jimmy in a heartbeat! Really, everyone should just book Jimmy because he's amazing, kind, and so helpful. Thank you Jimmy!!!!

ail hour, and kept the reception lively, upbeat, and dancing!! My guests loved him and he really helped to make it the best day for us!!

just what's popular. He helped us finalize our ceremony music and made sure every single song we picked for the ceremony was perfect. He played guitar and sang during the cocktail hour. It created the perfect ambiance and SO many guests told me how much they enjoyed that. For the reception, we wanted a variety of music that reflected our tastes and that all of our guests would enjoy, and the day of the wedding Jimmy totally nailed it. He helped me choose a song to play in memory of my godmother, and it was absolutely perfect. The dance floor was full of family celebrating her life - a moment I will never forget. The music set the mood for each and every part of our wedding day, and I can't tell you how many guests complimented the music after the wedding. Jimmy is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and talented and I absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing DJ.

eople were still able to talk when the wanted to, and no one left with ear damage :)). Jimmy was able to take just a few ideas from us about the kind of music we like, and create the best party we’ve ever been to. He was also super respectful in avoiding music that we didn’t want. Thank you, Jimmy! You were awesome!

friends and family. We worked with Jimmy to plan out what types of music we wanted to play during each part of the wedding. At the wedding, Jimmy created a flawless playlist based on our tastes that was perfect from the ceremony through the end of the evening. Jimmy also did the sound setup for our ceremony and cocktail hour, which were perfect. Through the day, he worked with Annalise of Lola’s Cafe to MC our wedding and helped keep everything running smoothly.

our wedding/reception - and we had was SO much fun in the process!!! Even when we had problems finding a first dance song, I reached out to Jimmy, and he was so kind to put together a document with all the first dance songs of his couples for us to review - and he bolded the songs that he liked the most. For our cocktail hour, Jimmy played his guitar, and it added just the right touch of fun during that time. We got several comments about how wonderful it was. During the reception, our guests were on the dance floor all night long and the music was so fun. Jimmy doesn't play the same songs other DJs plays - he chooses the songs and keeps the guests guessing all night long. He also threw in all our special requests and made sure we were aware whenever he did something special. I can't recommend Jimmy more. He simply is the best!

the wedding to review introductions and accompanying music, our first dance (which he performed live), our musical preferences and the entire run of show. And in the final weeks leading up to the wedding, Jimmy checked in to see if we had any additional requests or thoughts. The process was seamless and it showed the day of. For instance, my mother was insistent that dinner was not a time to be dancing and guests should be able to hear each other from across the table. Mindful of this, Jimmy used the time to play non-dancing music from some of our favorite bands at a lower level than normal. Speaking with a close friend (who knows my musical preferences) after the wedding, he expressed how personal the music was throughout the night, from introductions to dinner to dancing. Success! Jimmy’s enthusiasm for music is infectious and my husband and I now find ourselves brainstorming ways we could incorporate him into future events, just so we could work with him again! With that said, we highly recommend Jimmy for your own wedding!
