Brian is exactly what we needed for our wedding day. He followed our preferences while making recommendations based on clear experience. He went with the flow of the night, adjusti...
ng to ensure guests were taking up on the dance floor. We can't recommend Brian enough. You won't need to worry about your guests having a great time with his expertise.
Having known Brian for more than twenty years, and having worked with him professionally many times, it was an easy decision to have him DJ my daughter's wedding.
He was outstandin...
g, as usual, and varied the tempo on the dance floor to the delight of all in attendance. I received numerous compliments of Brian's professionalism as well as his music selection from the guests, many of whom I never presumed to see on a dance floor. Ever.
Brian also worked with my daughter and son-in-law in balancing their playlist (which was a bit esoteric) and blended it with more danceable and well-known fare to keep the celebration going.
Guests won't remember the food, the photographer, or the videographer, but they will definitely remember the DJ and how he or she set the mood and the tone of the reception.
Brian's experience, skill, and his enjoyment of his role paced the reception and made it all the more memorable.
We hired Platinum DJ for a photo booth at our wedding and it was a 5 star decision. Throughout the process Brian was easy to communicate with and professional. He worked with us wh...
en we needed to reschedule our date. The photo booth itself has amazing quality, came with fun props and was easy to use with the help of the staff members. As the bride and groom we got our photo booth pics done at the perfect time with the help of the booth attendant and our guests had so much fun with the team at the booth. At the end of the night we got a flash drive with all the pictures and they are just so cool! Absolute blast wish we could hire them again!
Brian did an amazing job for our sons wedding at Normandy Farms! He did the uplighting names for the dance floor which came out beautiful! We also used his photo booth as well. Our...
guests were beyond impressed with the quality of props and photos. It was a huge hit! Brian is extremely professional and responds quickly with any questions or concerns in regards to booking. I can’t say enough about how happy we were with everything.
Brian provided DJ services and his wife and son ran our Photo Booth. Brian was very easy to work with-responsive and gave great suggestions for ceremony music. We asked Brian to pl...
ay to the crowd since my husband and I found it a little overwhelming to pick music. From our first call we liked Brian's honesty. He didn't try to up-sell us on a package or items we didn't need. A few DJ's told us we needed uplighting, but Brian have been a preferred vendor, let us know he could provide it, but it would take away from the great river views.
We liked that the photo-strip was exactly what a photo strip. We've been to a few weddings where they print out a pull 4 X 6. I loved the variety of strips (over a 100) to choose from and we were able to customize it to incorporate our wedding colors. Our friends and family loved all the props and had a blast.
We 100% recommend Brian and his services. From the first meeting, he put us at ease and gave us advice when we needed it. His website is extremely easy to use and makes the actual ...
planning process very straightforward. There are tabs for music selections and forms for introductions and which songs you want to use for them, etc. It lays out all of the decisions you need to make without you needing to think about it.
On the day of the event, he essentially played second coordinator with Robin at the William Penn Inn. He knew that our parents couldn't handle long songs for the parent dances and watched us for a signal for when we needed it to end, but guests would never know he'd cut anything short. He kept the energy up from moment one and got our family out and dancing before the salad course was done!
We also used their mirror photo booth, which was so much fun! We have large family groups, and having such an open area meant we got so many funny pictures of everyone together instead of the usual closed-in behind-the-curtain type. His sons run the photo both, and they were both fantastic. At one point, we needed someone to make sure no guests accidentally stepped on our photographer's flash for one of the shots, and they physically guarded the door for us.
Thank you so much, Brian and the entire Smith family!
We hired Brian for our Wedding on May 4th 2019 and he exceeded ALL of our expectations! If you want all of your guests out dancing then Brian is the DJ for you! He knew how to re...

He made the whole process so easy from the very beginning, from picking songs that we wanted to or didn't want to hear, to deciding the layout and design of the photo strip. Brian was thorough, patient, very professional, and we would highly recommend him!!

ing the planning process of our timeline for our wedding. Brian is so friendly and down to earth and made it clear that he has the bride and groom's back during the reception. The reception was absolutely perfect. The music had everyone dancing the entire night. I saw guests who do not usually dance dancing the night away! Brian put uplighting all around our reception which was an added bonus. Our guests loved the open concept of his photo booth. They had a lot of fun taking pictures all night. Brian made the evening so fun and stress free for us. We cannot thank him enough! We highly recommend Brian!

We used Platinum Disc Jockeys & Photo Booths for our wedding at Hotel Icona in Wildwood, NJ. From the minute we started working with Brian and his staff they were professional, tho...
ughtful, and beyond amazing. He helped ease our nerves by meeting with us a few times before the wedding to discuss song lists, set up, and order. He communicated with us throughout the process and kept us up to date every step of the way. The day before the wedding and the day of the wedding his staff was efficient and responsible. They accommodated all of the last minute changes that popped out without a glitch and never batted an eye. Our day turned out beyond our imagination, and it was because of Platinum Disc Jockeys & Photo Booths. Our family and friends loved the music choices and are still talking about the photo booth! We can't thank Brian and his staff enough for making our wedding day, the best day of our lives.

us vender dropped out. Platinum DJ had a very professional set-up with a modern and clean appearance (which I greatly appreciate!) and a helpful and pleasant staff of 2 to walk everyone through the photo procedure. The props were SPOT ON and classy-fun. Not only was it fun DURING the wedding, but everyone who used it received 2 copies of high quality prints and we have a digital copy of EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. It is so wonderful to look though all the fun your guests and loved-ones have during the evening. It was EXACTLY what we wanted out of our evening and Platinum DJ made it all the more fun. They were prompt and efficient with both set-up and breakdown and were easy and professional to work with throughout the process.

le to connect we ironed out all the details and the day went perfectly. The photo booth was so much fun and our guests danced the night away.
We had Brian DJ our wedding ceremony and reception. I can't even begin to tell you how happy I was with how everything turned out. Brian made everything so easy and their website t...
hat allows you to plug in which songs to play when is great. We opted for a non-traditional ceremony (walking down the aisle to Led Zeppelin, and recessional was The Black Keys) and everything went smoothly.
As for the reception, Brian made sure to play most of the songs on our must-play list, and also knew what our overall music tastes were and stuck to it. I made it very clear that I didn't want certain bands or genres played and he definitely listened. He got all of our guests up on the dance floor, and I had so many of them comment on how awesome the playlists were.
Brian was so easy-going and great to work with. He is so personable and respectful. I would completely recommend him to anyone who asked.
Brian did a great job with our wedding! We loved how easy it was to navigate his website and add songs, provide information, etc. After meeting with Brian and giving him a sense of...
what we were looking for, he was able to run with it and played great music for our guests all night. We had some serious dancers at our wedding and he kept them on the floor the whole time! He was very easy to work with and was even able to get a few songs that were not already in his collection, which we appreciated. We also had Brian provide uplighting for our reception, which was a great addition! Our venue was gorgeous already, but adding lighting always takes things to a new level. I have no complaints about working with Brian! He was professional, friendly, and took care of us throughout the whole night. He knew what would get people dancing and how to structure the speeches, dances, etc. It was a great experience!
Platinum Disc Jockeys was a perfect choice for our wedding! Brian did a fantastic job coordinating events and reading the crowd. The music choices were spot-on and the lighting pro...

We hired Platinum DJ's, specifically the owner Brian Smith, to DJ our wedding. We met with Brian several times before the wedding. Brian was extremely flexible in meeting with us...
each time and was extremely professional. The value was wonderful and we were totally excited about our DJ. The reasons why we would not recommend Platinum DJ's are 1) We (and our guests) felt there were not enough slow songs played during the course of the evening. Only 2 slow songs were played and they were the last 2 songs of the night. 2) We specifically identified a few slow songs that were on our must play list. One was a song that I (the bride) wanted to dedicate to her husband. The 2 slow songs that were played were not on our must play list and the song I wanted dedicated to my new husband was not played. 3) In our meetings with Brian, we discussed not playing all new age music as we ourselves are late 30's early 40's and there would be a significant older population in attendance so we wanted songs played that would engage that audience as well. All the music played was new songs which I (a country fan) did not know most of. 4) Requests from guests were discourage. In our face to face meeting, my husband and I clearly articulated that we wanted guests to be encouraged to request songs. Numerous guests indicated that when they did attempt to request a song, the DJ said he would not take requests.
Again, we felt the value was good and we were extremely pleased to get the owner to DJ our wedding. However given the list of issues noticed during our wedding, we would not recommend Platinum DJ to others.
Brian is awesome! One of our groomsmen commented that he had never been to a wedding where so many people were dancing the whole time. That was just what we wanted for our big da...
y and can't thank Platinum DJ enough!
While my first impression of Brian and Platinum was excellent, it was all down hill from there. I had a destination wedding and was simply having a party a few weeks after our retu...
rn and really only need a DJ to play the music - my husband was very particular about the music he wanted played. We scheduled a date to meet at the venue and Brian did not show up, I had to call him after he was an hour late and he said he had an emergency and then did show up, but really didnt add anything to the meeting besides where he needed a table put. He offered me $30 discounted lights for being late, however, this was the same price he told me about in our initial consultation and when I asked if he was offering me an additional discount he said no. I was given the automated website to add songs and when they only allow you to choose 5 songs you really want played I again contacted Brian, who told I could tell the DJ what I wanted. When I was finally given the DJs contact information - Michael - he responded back to me over a week after my contact with less than 2 sentences - telling me not to worry about the music. I sent him a specific list of the music we wanted with asterisks for the really important songs and his response was "this looks good." I had to contact him a week before the event to see if everything was ok and he assured me it would be fine and he would be working on it after he went to Florida for a week. The day of the reception I again had to contact him to see if he even knew how to pronounce or introduce myself and my husband as the name was not as it looked - again his response was "Got it, see you tonight, looking forward to it."
Then comes the disaster of the event. We were waiting outside the room for a half an hour to be introduced - while the DJ played a "cocktail hour cd," that had none of the material we requested on it. When he finally came out to get ready to introduce us we learned ALL about his personal life and how he was in Florida getting ready to propose to his girlfriend, which was happening the week later. Throughout the evening music was played that was not on the list and not even in the genres we concentrated in. My wedding party went up to him as we were busy with our guests to ask him to play specific songs that were on the list and he was rude to them. My husband was so angry that he had to go up and request a song that was already on the list. Of the 70 songs we gave him, less than 20 were played. When I contact Brian after the event his response was that maybe I missed the songs, since I was busy with my guests. I had to tell him that the entire event was videotaped and that I could check off the songs that I requested be played. Why should either of us have to keep reminding the DJ to play what we had already requested when we were trying to say hello to our guests and enjoy the memories? How hard is it to hit play on a playlist that the bride and groom already set? Still no response.
I would NEVER use this company again. They're incredibly unprofessional - believe me, you get your moneys worth. They were the cheapest company and now I know why -- spend your money elsewhere and get a truly enjoyable night.
On a side note - they DJ'd a prom at the same event the night before, and I asked some of the the school staff how they felt about them and they agreed they wouldnt use Platinum again either.
The DJ we worked with was the owner of the company. He was extemely hard to work with. He completely forgot about one of our meetings, and when we did finally get to meet with him,...
he was always very rude and harsh when we wanted something done.
When it finally came to the day of the wedding, the quality of the music and playlist was great, so that was the only part that was good.
Brian Smith was fabulous! The dance floor was packed all night! He played great music that allowed all age groups to enjoy the reception. Couldn't have asked for anything better...
. Brian was very accommodating and made adjustments at the last minute without any issues.
He played decent music but my husband and I had a lot of songs we wanted to hear that he didn't play, including our last song. And for the majority of the songs he didn't have in ...
the online database we had sent him a cd with the music. I know they know what goes well at events however it was our wedding and we had a lot of things we wanted to hear. As the bride and groom we barely danced.
Brian was our DJ! He played awesome music all night long. Before my wedding, I spoke with him and he always gave me awesome advice and good ideas. He is personable and professional...
. For something as important as music, he is definitely reliable! He has a good setup on the computer for you to load all of your requests, and calls ahead of time to verify that everything is good. Will definitely recommend him in the future, he was also recomennded by my reception!
