Mike from Off the Charts just djed our wedding and did an incredible job! I’m so happy we chose him for our special day. We got so many compliments on the music! He followed our vibes to a tea and we would recommend him and Off the Charts to any bride!
We used Off the Chart Entertainment for our wedding DJ. It was such a pleasure to work with our DJ- Mike Bacon! Mike reached out to us to review our song requests and review our song selections prior to the wedding.
Mike did such a good job playing songs our guests loved and getting everyone to dance!
We booked Michael for DJ services for our wedding reception and boy are we glad we did!! We learned about him through mutual friends- and you know word of mouth recommendations are the best recommendations. We got to party with Michael at two weddings prior to ours and what can I say, if you want a packed dance floor the entire night you better book with him!! We had to deal with a COVID reception postponement but through it all Michael was upbeat, courteous, and a pleasure to deal with. And most importantly we and our guests were THRILLED with how much fun we had dancing all night long. You know you've hired the best when both the older and younger generations are partying throughout the night.
Amazing! So easy to work with from day 1. We had Mike Bacon be our DJ and he killed it. We spoke two days prior on the phone going over the paperwork and I knew during the call he was going to be awesome. We were on the dance floor the whole night! Our guests still rave about it! Highly recommend!
Chris from the Off the Chart was absolutely amazing! He really knew how to read the crowd and my guests and I barely left the dance floor all night! Music was very important to my husband and I and Chris did a wonderful job of pumping up the crowd and playing just the right tunes!
2020 has been a crazy year with unforeseen obstacles and unfortunate circumstances. We were lucky enough to still be able to hold our wedding and Mike and Frank were nothing short of amazing! Off the Chart Entertainment was so easy to work with, Mike called me multiple times to check in and see if I had any questions or if there was anything else he could do for us. Our wedding wouldn't have been as much of a success without him and his team. The roaming photobooth was a big hit and Frank kept everyone on the dancefloor all night! THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH for making our special day so perfect.
Working with Off the Chart Entertainment was a great experience. Michael was so great to work with and accommodating when it came to switching from venue to backyard. They provided great service!
My wedding was scheduled for May 2020. With the Covid-19 pandemic that was of course not an option. I had booked Off the Chart for my DJ after seeing them at a friends wedding. When I contacted Michael, the owner back in April to discuss my options to postpone he couldn’t be kinder. He said just check with your venue on some available 2021 dates and then to let him know to see when he was available. With my 100 phone calls we finally picked a new date! He did not charge me any penalty or increase my rate to next year’s pricing. In fact he upgraded my photo booth at no extra charge. He is kind and professional and everything you want especially when you have to postpone your wedding! I cannot wait until May 2021 to celebrate my amazing day with Michael and Off the Chart! Thank you so much for being you Michael, you are truly a gem!
AVOID so you do not end up in a lawsuit like me. This is not how business is supposed to be done.
What was supposed to be the happiest time for my fiancé and I; planning our dream wedding after being together for 17 years, has been a complete nightmare due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our wedding date (May 15, 2020) was cancelled due to the governor's stay at home order. Imagine after 17 years, and two years of planning having everything changed due to something out of your control.
We were forced into a difficult situation and now find ourselves in the middle of a lawsuit with Mike Ginolfi, the owner of Off the Chart Entertainment. We attempted to work with him on creating a new contract and could not come to an agreement that worked for everyone. I attempted to explain to Mike that both my fiancé and I are essential workers (my finance is a registered nurse) and he still opted to follow through with a lawsuit. I offered to have him keep the $200 deposit as restitution and he is continuing to pursue legal action against me. He says that we are in breach of the contract and feels he deserves all the money for a performance that never happened and could not happen.
We have never spoken to Mike about a list of songs we wanted, we never provided the names of the bridal party, nothing was done for our wedding other than signing a contract that unfortunately was forced to be canceled due to our state and federal government along with the CDC guidelines. I lost thousands of dollars in wedding invitations, stamps, and custom items (flask & socks with our wedding date) and it is something my fiancé and I will have to deal with.
I am an understanding person, and would never want to see anyone suffer due to COVID-19, with that said; a person who I chose to do business with now is punishing me. This has now soured the wedding process, and has made my fiancé and I regret working with Off the Chart Entertainment. I personally cannot recommend Mike or his company after this experience. On top of all the stress of planning a wedding, the money going into the wedding itself, the last thing I want to deal with is a lawsuit from a DJ that wants me to pay the balance of the agreement to a wedding that could not take place due to governors orders. I have read other reviews about lawsuit threats and he threatened me with another lawsuit if posted a negative review. Well, I am already being sued and I ignored what the negative reviews said, learn from my mistake and avoid!
OTC Entertainment is absolutely amazing! We used Mike for our wedding. Not only did he help us when our Photobooth didn’t show up by using his roaming Photobooth (which was amazing I should add - my guests LOVED it) but he kept the party going all night. He was super easy and sweet to work with as well as fun! He knows what he is doing and I would 150% recommend using him for your event!!
We loved Off the Charts for our NYE wedding. Mike was awesome. He was very helpful and kept the party going all night. The music was perfect - he had varied song selections for all ages and kept the dance floor packed. We also used them for the photo booth. Our guests loved the music and keep telling us how much fun they had. I’d recommend them to anyone.
We hired Off the Chart Entertainment for our recent wedding and we could not be happier with the services they provided! Frank did a great job Emceeing and played a great variety of music that was a huge hit with our guests! The dance floor was packed all night and he created a great atmosphere in the room. We also got the intelligent lighting package which looked great and the photo booth which was so much fun! We highly recommend using Off the Charts for your next event!
I would highly recommend Off the chart entertainment to anybody and everybody! They killed it with the lighting, photo booth, up lighting and music choice to get everyone on the dance floor. Our wedding was 12/1/19 and winter wonderland themed so for our first dance OTC made sure it followed our theme by adding in snow and dancing on the clouds. Mike and his team are well experienced and couldn’t be any more happier. Thanks again OTC!!
Off the Chart was apart of my wedding on November 22, 2019. Mike and his team are wonderful to work with. We booked OTC about two years before we got married so by our wedding night it felt like our friend was in charge of our entertainment. Mike really does care about making sure your event is exactly what you want. As we had requested him to play a good mix between old and new and all different types of music and they did exactly that. People have been raving about how phenomenal our music and that's all to Mike! You are in the best hands when you book with off the chart!
Michael from OTC truly has a talent. He had every single person in the room dancing the entire night! Our wedding reception really would not have been as fun or as lively as it was without him. I will use his company for every event I have in the future and will recommend him to every person I know getting married. Thank you Michael!
5 star rating for Off The Chart Entertainment!! Mike and the entire team made our wedding so special for us. The music, the dancing on the clouds, the videography and photography. They handled so much and worked hard to make sure it all was perfect. Mike was so courteous and professional and even helped us through all of our special requests we had. I even had a flash mob surprise for my bride and they helped make it happen. Thank you Off The Chart Entertainment!! God Bless!! #finallyfernandes
My husband and I used Off the Chart Entertainment for our DJ and photo booth for our October wedding and I have no regrets! Michael was absolutely amazing taking (especially my) requests for songs as well as my guests. We also love that he played such a variety of music which was so important to us because not everyone has the same taste in music. And the photo booth! I absolutely loved that we got a flash drive of all the photos because if guests lost them or something we have an extra one. Definitely recommend using them
I want to thank Mike who helped plan our wedding up until the day of the wedding on September 21, 2019. Everything was perfect. They went above and beyond to make every detail perfect. I want to thank Frank, who was the DJ the day of the wedding. He went over every detail with my husband on the big day to make sure everything flowed perfectly. All the staff was so nice and accommodating! First class company! Highly recommended!
From Mr. & Mrs. Kevin Lewandowski
Words cannot truly express how fabulous our September 14th, 2019 wedding ceremony and Crystal Ballroom reception was due in large part to Off the Chart Entertainment. From the ceremony to the end of the reception every aspect our entertainment brought the highest praise from family and friends alike. A very special thank you to Michael and his team for making everyone dance, laugh and have the best time! Not one person was in their seats, everyone was dancing and celebrating! Michael got the crowd excited and ready to dance and sing the night away! We cannot thank Off the Chart Entertainment enough for their thoroughness and patience throughout the entire process and making our wedding a truly once in a lifetime experience.

I used Off The Chat for my wedding on 9/21/2019 because I had a great experience two years prior at my sisters wedding. To say the least or wedding from start to finish was phenomenal. Our DJ kept us up with the plan for the night and how things were going and when the first dance would happen or the father daughter dance. There was no a moment that the dance floor was empty! We truly had an amazing experience working with Off The Charts and would recommend them to anyone! Thanks guys for helping make out wedding a night to remember!
I highly recommend off the chart to anyone looking for DJ entertainment. I had a number of last minute requests and Michael made every single one of them happen. I heard him dj years back and remember loving the music so he was the first vendor I booked when planning my wedding and he truly delivered, dance floor was full all night.
OTC was recommended to us by a family member who had gotten married two years ago, and I could not be more grateful! Michael and Frank were absolute pleasures to work with and made our party so lively and fun. Something that was important to me was that our DJ not be "cheesy" and there was NONE of that there. I, being type "A", had created a spreadsheet with a considerable number of songs to consider for pre-ceremony, cocktail hour and the reception. They were truly considerate of that list and made everything happen. We also contracted a photobooth with them and everyone had a blast with it! I can't say a single negative thing about OTC, I even gave them hugs at the end of the night!
Please let me start off by saying that Off the Chart Entertainment was “OFF THE CHART!” They executed every single thing flawlessly, from top to bottom (DJ, announcements, dance floor, lighting, etc). These guys are extremely professional and timely, focused yet relaxed, and such a delight to work with. Mike and his team took every step to
make our wedding day perfect and his attention to detail was excellent. They caught the joy, the tears, the quiet contemplation, and beautiful candid shots of us, our family and friends. Mike was always just a phone call away and the communication just flowed. The music was on point with what we requested and the photo/videos were nothing short of spectacular. We cannot sing the praises of Off the Chart Entertainment loud enough! This DJ service was one of the best decisions that my husband and I made for our wedding. THANK YOU MIKE!!!
Mike was easy to work with leading up to our wedding. On the day of our wedding Frank was our DJ. He was excellent and had our guests up and dancing the entire night. Our guests also had a blast in the photo booth that Off The Chart Entertainment provided. We loved that we got a copy of every photo in an album.
My wife and l booked Off the Chart and we can say without any hesitation that it was a tremendous experience. Throughout the entire process, we were in constant communication and Mike answered all of our emails promptly. He kept our guests engaged during our reception with his entertainment and sense of humor! Having never met Mike prior to the day of our wedding, it was expected that we were a bit nervous about how everything would unfold, but he exceeded all of our expectations! We didn’t have to worry about anything that night! We would definitely recommend Off the Chart to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience!!
Michael and his crew from Off The Chart Entertainment fulfilled all of our musical needs and much more at our June wedding! As soon as the reception got under way, Michael had all of our guests on the dance out floor for epic pictures and memories that will last a lifetime! He set a tone of high energy and enthusiasm from the start. We can't thank him enough for orchestrating the perfect evening! My husband and I are so grateful for the pictures that were captured and then sent to us within just days of our wedding. We highly recommend Off The Chart Entertainment to anyone and everyone!
Both Mike and Frank from OTC are amazing to work with! So down to earth and so understanding of whatever it is you want on your day. Our dance floor was packed the entire night! We left a lot of the choices up to them and only had one mission--keep everyone dancing. They did just that!
Mike and his guys did an amazing job for our wedding, they really are true professionals. From the ceremony to the cocktail hour to the reception, they had the guests on their feet dancing all night. Mike was a fantastic MC, and kept everyone entertained from start to finish. The photo booth was so much fun and our guests loved it. We would definitely recommend OTC to anyone who wants to have one of the best DJs around for their wedding. Thanks again OTC!
Mike and the Off the Charts team are definitely the people you want to use for your wedding. Mike was so easy to work with and listened to every detail that mattered to me. He played all of the songs perfectly and at the best times. The photo booth was amazing and everyone was raving about how fun it was. We also had the dancing on the clouds feature which was so much fun. I couldn’t thank mike and his team enough for the magic they brought to our special day. We will always remember off the charts and appreciate everything they did for us.
Michael and his team worked our wedding in May of 2019 and we could have not been more pleased. We hired Michael as our DJ and through his company we even bundled all photography, videography and officiant vendors! One stop shopping for all your wedding needs! Our dance floor was packed all night and Michael’s team used unique ideas to create memorable moments. We are extremely thankful we trusted his services and I urge anyone planning a wedding to give him a call! Thank you Michael and team!
Mike and his team are truly the best in the wedding industry period!! Our wedding at the crystal ballroom was nothing short of perfect because of mike!! He is a true professional and is there for you every step of the way. You will not find a better team to take care of you on the most important night of your life. We have received so many compliments on our Dj selection, from the energy to the photo booth, everything was seamless and we had the time of our lives! I am thrilled I get to attend a few more weddings with OTC! We love you mike and could not thank you enough! BOOK THEM NOW!
Michael and the rest of the Off The Chart did an amazing job! We are so grateful for all of their hard work, they helped make our day perfect. We didn't notice a single person sitting all night long! The dancing on the clouds was phenomenal, and the pictures were breathtaking. It was the talk of the wedding even after our party was over!

We celebrated our wedding on 4/27/19 at the View on the Hudson in Piermont, NY. It was the perfect venue and made more special because of our DJ, Mike. I asked him to keep the crowd moving and help make it a fun party and he delivered. It was great to see everyone dancing and having a great time. Our guests loved the song list and the photo booth, which had great props. This is the 2nd time our family has used OTC and it won’t be the last. Thanks again for making our day so very special and so much fun. Anna and Glenn
Off The Chart helped us to have the best wedding ever. Michael helped us to plan and coordinate for the big day and Anthony was our host. Both are true gentleman, helping to make our day as stress-free as possible. We had the best party and Anthony was seamless in transitioning from party to dinner to garter toss to speeches etc. Neither complained when I would make last minute changes and really helped me to put my vision together. They were both so supportive and fun to work with. What a great company and what a fun time. I hope to have another occasion I need a DJ for because I will go right to OTC!
Off the Chart provided entertainment at our wedding on April 12, 2019. Michael and his team were everything we imagined for wedding entertainment AND MORE; they were so easy to work with, energetic, and we felt confident leaving the flow of the evening in their hands. There were some specific songs requested by my husband to be added to the lineup, and they were added in seamlessly and everyone was happy!
OTC provided music, lighting, dancing on the clouds, our monogram projected on the wall, a photo slideshow during dinner and the photo booth. We absolutely loved our first dance in the clouds, our photos look magical and I highly recommend this upgrade. We were also huge fans of the album we were provided with at the end of the evening with the photo booth photos signed by guests and the flash drive with the photos included. We’ve laughed at the memories so many times since returning home from our honeymoon. It was also extremely easy to send along the photos for our slideshow prior to the event!
We were so thrilled with Michael and the staff at OTC, thank you so much for making our evening so incredible.
We got married on 4.27.19 and had the most amazing night. Of all the vendors our guests could NOT stop talking about how amazing Frank was from Off the Chart. From the moment the music started playing until the last song every guest was on the dance floor. They played exactly what we wanted and more. Frank really listened to what we wanted and made sure the entire night went smoothly. We also rented the photobooth which was a great memory for us to be able to bring the pictures home and see how much fun our guests truly had. They really made our wedding night so incredible!
Mike and OTC were amazing! He was always very responsive to our requests or issues prior to the wedding.
My wife is very picky with her music selection and so we gave quite a long list of songs for Mike to play at the reception. While Mike didn't play all of these songs, he did a stellar job of playing all the right songs that we both enjoyed and to keep people on the dance floor. I think there was one song my wife didn't like, but I just went up to Mike to ask if he could change it, and he didn't almost immediately.
If you want a professional DJ that plays all the right music, 100% recommend going with OTC
Our wedding was absolutely amazing thanks to the Off The Chart crew! From beginning to end they had the entire crowd on the dance floor!
Off the Chart entertainment not only ensured us that our guests would have a great time at our wedding - but they made us feel so comfortable and relaxed! Mike was absolutely amazing and had our guests dancing the whole night! Everyone LOVED the snow machine!!! We enjoyed watching our guests dance the night away with us and we couldn’t have imagined anyone else DJing for us! Thank you again Off the Chart!
Hands down off the chart entertainment was fantastic. My husband and I just got married this past weekend and he hands down made it the most memorable experiance. He made sure everything was handled and we worried about nothing. I highly highly recommend them to anyone getting married. They are a one stop shop for everything. The best decision we ever made was having them do our wedding. Thank you guys you rock!!
Mike and the whole OTC team were amazing! Throughout the whole process Mike was very responsive, friendly, and professional. He made our wedding night unforgettable and we received so many compliments on their services. We highly recommend Off The Chart!!
LOOK NO FURTHER FOR A DJ ! I promise you, your search will end w\ Michael and his team. I wish I could give this company 10 stars. My inquires were handled by Michael, and my DJ was Mark. Both were super efficient, friendly and professional. I never doubted or feared that anything will go wrong. They were thorough and made sure whatever I asked was done appropriately. I received compliments on my DJ, the music selection was amazing, they knew what would get the crowd up and out of their seats. I could not be happier and definitely recommending this company to anyone looking for DJ services. Thanks so much for your help throughout this process, you have made this so easy for my husband and I!
Mike and his team were great the night of my wedding!! Thank you so much for everything !!
Michael was so nice, we signed with him on the spot! Anthony was professional, easy to work with and did a great job reading the crowd at our wedding. He also played our list of must have songs.
Mike and his team were absolutely amazing - we could not have asked for a better DJ. We had some issues with our wedding as the power went out and we did not have a maître d' and if it wasn't for Mike taking control of the night and running the show the night would have been a flop. Mike kept everything running smoothly and had EVERYONE dancing. Would definitely recommend him to friends and family.
I’m going straight to the punch line – Book your event with OTC! We used them for our 9/28 wedding at SkyView (Sparta NJ) and we were thrilled! We and our guests had SUCH a good time, we danced all night long. The dancefloor was packed the entire night and DJ Frank did great with timing all the transitions for dinner, cake cutting, etc. He also went above and beyond to make sure that the sound quality for our ceremony went off seamlessly, a known issue since there is no power source near the venue’s ceremony location. During the planning, Michael was our go-to and he was incredibly responsive. Our event DJ was Frank and we had a long planning call with him in advanced of the wedding and he was very attentive to all the details necessary to execute a seamless wedding day! I can’t recommend their services enough.
Mike from OTC Entertainment was awesome from start to finish. He is very friendly and outgoing. He made the entire process very easy and was always there if we needed him. We had an awesome wedding! 10/1I HIGHLY recommend OTC Entertainment for any weddings/events!!!
Michael is the best. He treated us like we were like family, dealt with my tremendously sized bridal party and really made our night unforgettable. We can’t thank him enough. If you hire Michael, you will get to see the true passion and love he has for his business. You will not be disappointed.
Michael was the dj at my wedding this past saturday and he did an amazing job. Through out the whole planning process michael was very easy to work with and professional. I was so pleased with how everything turned out!
Michael and the whole team at Off The Chart were nothing short of spectacular for our wedding on September 15. From the great music to constantly checking in to see if they could help us every step of the wedding day, my wife and I couldn't have asked for a better DJ. We have and will continue to recommend them to everyone we meet that is getting married or that needs a DJ for an event.
OTC is absolutely the best! Michael is amazing and will have everyone on the dance floor the entire night!
We love Michael!! Mike listened and worked with us very closely to every little detail we wanted in making our day so special and fun! Everyone was on the dance floor exactly what I wanted! So sad our day is over because I will miss our emails and calls with mike! I highly recommend off the charts!
Off The Chart Entertainment is the best! We attended a wedding they did, and we left saying we had to have Michael at ours! Michael was so quick to respond with any questions we had. Michael and his team were so awesome on our wedding day. The crowd was engaged and on the dance floor all night. The smaller details like the photo album we received at the end of the night with the photo booth photos, the video and photos from the dance floor, meant so much! You are missing out if you do not choose Off The Chart for your day!
Great DJs. Played all our music for our ceremony, made the party time and also took some great professional pictures. Thank you!
I would highly recommend Off The Chart Entertainment for your music needs at any event! Michael and his team were there with us every step of the way. He provided advice and recommendations during the planning process which helped ease any stress we may have had.
On the day of our event, they arrived early and was prepared well in advance of the reception beginning. Additionally, Michael provided amplification for both our violinist and our officiant during the ceremony.
As we transitioned into cocktail hour, he played all of our instrumental requests!
During the reception, the music could not have been better. The dance floor was packed the entire night as they played a wide variety of hits from all different genres from throughout the years.
Two weeks later, I’m still reliving the most amazing day through the videos and pictures they took for us!
We have received endless compliments from our family and friends regarding OTC. I would not hesitate to recommend them and their services. I plan to use them again in the future for any parties.
Michael and his staff were amazing thru my entire wedding process! My wedding last night was truly magical! Every single guest kept telling me the music and photo booth were literally out of this world! I would highly recommend Off the Chart !
Michael and his staff were FABULOUS!! From the day I met him I knew he was perfect for my wedding! My guests are still raving about him and his music! The dance floor was packed all night and my wedding was everything I could have ever dreamed off! Definitely book Off the Charts!!
Our DJ was Frank and he was phenomenal! Made sure every song that we requested was correct and helped to make sure the evening went smoothly. Michael was also easy to work with through the planning process and extremely helpful.
We used Off The Chart Entertainment for our wedding on July 28th, 2018, and we couldn't be happier! Everyone we met was so kind and helpful and did everything they could to make sure we felt secure in our choice! Prior to the wedding we had 3 housing situations fall through and ended up loosing a lot of time to work on our song choices - until the last 2 weeks before the actual event! Mike and Frank were so understanding and worked with us up until the night before the wedding to make sure we didn't miss a thing! They bent over backwards to make our day perfect! Frank knew just what to do to make sure our guests were having a blast and dancing the day away! We also used them for their media entertainment package and intelligent lighting. I would definitely say that the lights added a lot to the ambiance of the evening. We had two screens set up that ran a loop of about 80 photos that we gave them. After it looped 3 or 4 times, the screen then showed pictures that their photographer had been snapping during the reception, so people could see themselves as well! I would definitely recommend OTC for any event you may be having!
I cannot rave enough about working with Michael and his team. From our initial meeting to phone calls/emails, Michael was receptive to everything I brought to the table. He is easy going, yet professional. He also worked with us within our budget. The day of our wedding, Michael provided light jazzy cocktail music and then our full reception, including a photo booth. The ultimate surprise was our photo booth album presented to us, as well as the short video of awesome dance moves throughout the night. He made the Skylands Manor ballroom rockin' all night long. Seriously, all of my requests (and my moms!) were played and not in a choppy way. The only negative is that he couldn't get me Frankie Valli to play our wedding song live. (hahah) Seriously, look no further for a magnificant DJ who took the time to ask about my likes/dislikes... book with Michael and Off the Chart!!
