Powerstation Events

lan a bouquet dedication to my mom. There's a reason they've been successful for so long.

riately so everyone could hear us. Christi did fantastic working with us in-the-moment on slight shifts to the schedule, navigating all changes with ease. Her MCing was great and she was able to read the room to keep the right vibe flowing from cocktail hour to the reception through dinner into dancing. Big thank you to Christi and PowerStation events!

e ran with it and it was the best. Definitely will use him for any future events

e would not disappoint. He is the ultimate professional. He gave our wedding the perfect ambiance, he got the ceremony music perfect, and he knew what to do / what we needed before we could vocalize it ourselves. He was phenomenal. He handled rain contingencies and our very specific taste in music flawlessly! The jazz trio was out of this world! Their skill, passion, and music taste made our cocktail hour a true party and our guests loved it! The photo booth was a last minute addition and amazing! It came with a guest book which we loved looking through, and we were able to custom design our print out which was so much fun! Thank you Power Station and to anyone looking for true wedding professionals look no further!

and that the music we played made us happy on our special day! Our officiant, Charlie Saccavino was PERFECT for us. He created "Our Love Story" through a questionnaire filled out by both of us. It left guests full of many emotions and kept everyone engaged. It also got the conversations started amongst guests that they could 'feel the love in the room' as we got married. Definitely a memorable ceremony!

nce of booking multiple vendors from the same company. We were able to help design our photobooth strips and after the wedding received a digital album as well as hard copies of all the pictures with handwritten messages from our guests. Our DJ Jesse was absolutely amazing, he truly understood our music taste and we loved every single song he played. It was such a beautiful and special touch to have a string quartet for our ceremony and cocktail hour, the musicians were very talented and professional. We definitely recommend Powerstation and want to give a special shoutout to our amazing DJ, Jesse Chen!

ur favorite songs. I’d book her 1000% again!

ple from 3 to 80, and DJ Christi played music that catered to everyone. Our dance floor was never empty and my husband and I were able to sing and dance the night away. We highly recommend working with Powerstation Events, they are organized and ensure everything is all set so you can enjoy your wedding worry free. Thank you Powerstation Eventsand DJ Christi for making our day so special!

iends of different backgrounds, had an absolute blast. People were so exhausted from dancing so hard that a great song would end, you could audibly hear the sighs of relief like they thought they could take a break, and then Alex would play another banger and everyone would go at it again. It was great. Alex also looked like he was having a great time which I loved, and he was very professional throughout the whole process. I would hands down hire him again if I ever needed another DJ. I also appreciated the planning process with Powerstation Events to set us up with the right DJ for us, then all the forms for specific songs that we'd want played. It was all very organized, and I didn't feel worried about a thing.

ish, and our guests can’t stop talking about how much fun they had. Thank you Rich for making our day so memorable!

our wedding planning process and on the big day. We had a few last minute schedule changes and Paige was so flexible in working with us and our other vendors to keep the day running smoothly.

we couldn't have been happier. He was incredibly friendly and helpful, and everyone at our wedding couldn't stop talking about how fantastic the music was. The dance floor was always packed until the very end of the night. We came in with a long list of songs and type of music we wanted to hear, and Chris new exactly how to make it all work together for an unforgettable night. We would highly recommend working with Powerstation and Chris if you can!

to finish. On the day of, the event production team was early to set up our three separate sound systems. DJ Erik was a perfect fit for our wedding. He accommodated our requests, was in sync with our music tastes, kept a great flow to the night, and was very communicative. He coordinated all music and mics flawlessly during the ceremony, and kept us on schedule with speeches and dances during the reception. Overall, we highly recommend powerstation and DJ Erik for your event!

the wedding, he played a huge role in making sure the ceremony went smoothly by working the microphones and also announcing that are ceremony was unplugged (No cellphones). And of course I can't forget about the reception music! Jesse played the songs and artists we requested to tee while also incorporating other popular songs that kept people on the dance floor all night. The following day we had too many wedding guest to count come us to and say how much fun on the dance floor they had all night!! So definitely consider having powerstation and Jesse Ledeatte as your DJ, I can't recommend then enough!

i throughout the entire process. She helped us figure out exactly what we wanted out of the music at our wedding through the entire reception, and then executed all of our musical ideas seamlessly. She kept the dance floor alive the entire night, and everybody was very happy with the music. Ashley ran the photobooth, and we were so thrilled to see how many guests used the booth and looked to be having a great time.

usic we like, was very responsive in the lead-up to the big day, and read the room perfectly on the night of. Our guests had nothing but praise for the music and that was all thanks to Alex's skills. Could not recommend him and Powerstation more!

fectly. We were able to have a list of "definitely plays" and "do not plays" as well as lots of song recommendations, but after our meeting with Alex before the wedding we had complete trust in him and he DELIVERED! Our dance floor was popping all night and our guests loved the mix of music that Alex was able to provide. He was communicative, fun, and an overall amazing presence to have at our wedding. Thank you Alex and Powerstation for making our day unforgettable!!

communicative and happy to text or jump on a call whenever we needed. He understood we had some extra needs for the ceremony (a live musician, a few extra microphones, etc.) and was happy to talk through the gear needed to make that happen. Christi, our DJ, was a fantastic energy to have with us for the day of our wedding. She was flexible and able to troubleshoot multiple problems, including not having enough cable, a missing microphone stand, and a HEAVY rainstorm at our tented reception. Through all of this she was sure to check in with us to make sure we didn’t need anything and even offered to act as a human mic stand during the ceremony! Most importantly, she understood the assignment to get butts on the dance floor, worked to find the right vibe, and kept everyone dancing till the very end. We can’t thank her enough! We did attempt to use Powerstation for our decor as well. After months of back-and-forth with Jenna, missed emails, and minimal follow-up, we decided to use a different vendor for the decor. We would absolutely recommend them for their DJ services!

etc. I would highly recommend Chris from Powerstation if you’re looking for a fun wedding with a packed dance floor! Thank you Chris!!!

a suggested/rebated option from our wedding location) proved to be very frustrating. The music portion of our wedding reception was disappointing (especially in comparison to all other vendors), and many of our requests for both the DJ and the photo booth (as well as general communcation and coordination of other peices of the package) were not delivered or needed to be handled by us/wedding coordinator on our wedding day. Dancing was the most important part of our reception to us. We told the DJ that we had created a playlist of popular and meaningful songs amongst our friends and family (as well as generally popular wedding/dance songs). We organized it so that he could just press play and add in the dedication songs that we requested. At the reception, some of the songs on our playlist were played, though not in the order that we would have wanted, and then there were songs played that we actively don’t like which would be very clear from the playlist we had shared and also our preference sheet and meetings. When I went up to request one song that was on the list, it did not seem to go over well and the song also stopped in the middle. When we met with the DJ, we also expressed that our group of family and friends are big dancers and it would not be an issue to get people on the dance floor.) That would be the reason why, even when our playlist was not played as requested, there were still many people on the dance floor. We had 2 hours to dance, and we had requested in our meetings and preference sheets special songs to be dedicated to friends and family. Apart from the parent/bride/groom dances and entrance, none of those songs were played. Many guests even questioned specific special songs being omitted and certain songs that were being played, especially when the dance floor emptied a bit when a song we didn’t want was on. People also noted the volume of the music was very low at many points and guests tried to communicate this to the DJ, and we danced anyway, because, as we shared, we/our friends and family love to dance, though it was a big let down in many ways. We understand that people have off days. It was just a huge disappointment that one of the important parts of our wedding day was truly not even close to what we dreamed of even if someone was having an off day. We would have hoped sharing a “plug-and-play” playlist could have avoided this. Perhaps it was our DJ choice, an off-day, we should have continually reminded him of our preferences, or we should have rented equipment and had a friend emcee.

emony to fit our needs and Rich provided guidance during the planning process for both of the ceremony and reception.

t was the best wedding that they have ever been to. Rich G and Alex V were amazing DJs. Alex did the ceremony and cocktail hour while Rich did the reception. We had unusual requests for both of them and they handles everything amazingly. For our ceremony, we had instrumental versions of songs from popular movies - parents walked down to the Love Theme from Attack of the Clones, my husband to be processed to Going the Distance from Rocky as he wore a boxing robe, I walked down to Pure Imagination from Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. They filled in the gaps during the lead up to the ceremony because I had guests comment on how much they loved hearing themes and songs from Game of Thrones, Edward Scissorhands, etc. For my wedding reception I had an escape room theme and asked that Rich could assist me on that. If guests put together a puzzle in their locked favor box they would get a secret message to "Tell the DJ The PassCode is Blue Harvest". If they went up to the DJ, he would then give me a special card I made that would then give them a secret message to find other secrets in the venue. I also had them go up to him for prizes if they received a scratch ticket or message that said so. Rich happily gave out these cards and prizes and my guests loved it and said they had so much fun. I also had a secret raffle at the end of the night. Rich worked with me and the wedding coordinator on timing for this so that when I announced it on his mic the confetti cannons went off and our last fun dance song immediately played, getting the entire crowd going! It was like I was in a movie! The entire night the dance floor was packed and I owe it to Rich for keeping everything alive and moving. He checked in with me and my husband every once in a while to make sure he was playing certain songs that we wanted. We didn't want very many slow songs but did at least request a few and he made to get the ones in that we wanted without slowing down the party too much. Rich and the team there know exactly what they are doing and I cannot recommend them enough!

s get matched up with the perfect DJ for us by asking very thoughtful questions about our wedding. He helped us get matched up with Frank who is truly an amazing DJ!! He had the dance floor going all night with an incredible mix of modern and classics. I really wanted something that every guest could appreciate and Frank understood that. He went along with every request (including my very important one to only play Taylor's Version of any TS songs) and gracefully deflected my family member's absurd music requests. Best of all was that Frank, Jesse, and the entire Powerstation team helped me pull off an incredible surprise to my husband. I had a custom processional song made and they worked with me to make sure he never suspected a thing. When the song played as I was coming down the aisle and my husband was crying/laughing in surprise, I knew that I had made the right choice in bringing on Powerstation to do our event. Thank you again for such an incredible evening!!!!

d she delivered! All of the special music went smoothly, as that was something that was very important to us also! Highly highly recommend powerstation events for your wedding!! They have many DJs to fit your vibe!

ked all day! He listened to our recommendations and played/didn't play what we asked. He was so sweet and we absolutely loved him! Can't recommend him enough.

ception. Our DJ Jesse Chen is a seasoned professional and had worked with the venue many times before. This meant our DJ and our day-of coordinators were in lockstep the entire afternoon and evening. The music was perfect for different moments of the evening, including a pop-punk music block for our high school and college friends to bring energy to the floor! Prior to our wedding, Jesse worked with us to understand our musical vision for the evening, including asking us for a Spotify playlist to get a sense of the kind of music we like. We had a worksheet of “must plays” and “don’t plays” which gave us all the peace of mind we needed before the day. On the day of the wedding, Jesse gave us clear guidelines on where and when we would be mic’d up for our ceremony and speeches, and when he’d be un-micing us. The entire time, we knew we were in good hands!

ime well, checked in with us and made sure everything was going well. He was very detailed-oriented. He can't thank him enough for a perfect night!

comfortable on the mic, and generally pleasant to work with. I was however a bit disappointed with our ceremony music as my song didn’t play until I was already partially down the aisle. I also curated a very specific list of songs for cocktail hour and the reception and while cocktail hour was spot on, a lot of our favorite songs were not played during the reception. I felt that there was some misreading of the room as we normally have a very dance-heavy crowd at family weddings and the dance floor was emptier than usual because there wasn’t enough mixing of old and new songs to appeal to everyone. Overall I would still recommend this company and DJ but would urge anyone that feels very passionate about their playlist to stress that as much as possible so you hear what you want on your big day! If you’re flexible about the music selection, you’ll likely be happy with the service at Powerstation.

before hiring him as well! We ended up going with Jesse and could not have been happier! He had us create a Spotify playlist so he could get an idea of the type of music we wanted to play, but we also gave him the freedom to choose what songs he thought would work with our crowd and he did a great job with that. We gave him some songs that had to be played and he made sure they were played that night. There was one song that my dad wanted to hear but he missed it the first time, so Jesse played it again when my dad was there! He was able to keep people on the dance floor all night! We are so happy with the music we had all night long!

m details; she definitely got the vibe we were going for and our wedding guests had a blast on the dance floor. Also, our lighting/decor coordinator Jenna did a great job; she was familiar with the venue and had great suggestions, and came to meet us at the venue beforehand so we could visualize what we were doing as far as lighting. The only criticism I have is that Powerstation was a bit complicated to work with. There were a lot of different contact points and we were never quite clear who we should be talking to (especially about general things like payments); more importantly, the 4 (!) forms that we needed to fill out which the DJ works off of were not the best - overlap, confusing questions, missing some key things that had to be jammed into the "additional details" fields which became cluttered and confusing quickly. We were able to talk through it with Christi in advance which was helpful, but the forms could use some streamlining. Otherwise we were very happy with both the music & lighting for our wedding!

e were looking for and he even sings in the background to some of the songs!!!! And he has an amazing voice my guests were shocked when they realized he was singing hahah. HOWEVER, dealing with Powerstation as a company was very frustrating. They had so many people involved in the process (we were dealing with two office managers, their supervisor, and then there's the production team who actually downloads the music you want), and while all were individually nice people, there was just way too much miscommunication. Even with scheduling calls, because you don't schedule with the DJ, you schedule with the office manager, there were multiple times we just didn't get a phone call (like 20-30 minutes after the scheduled time) and I would have to call them and they would say "oh yeah we're just running behind", when really, I think they just forgot because of the miscommunication. I had also emailed Jesse to just confirm he was going to definitely play 3 of our favorite songs, and he said to email production because he's only able to play what they download on his computer ahead of time. So I did but that and they confirmed but then on the day of Jesse said they were never downloaded :( I was sooooooo disappointed. Again, I just think the company is so big that they don't always care or take into consideration everyone's personal wants, they are just operating as a business. They also gave us the wrong color up lighting, which in hindsight was fine because it actually looked good, but we had specifically confirmed our color with them and any other couple could have been extremely angry. It was just a bunch of little repeated mistakes that overall gave them the low rating.

ere a great way to brainstorm music ideas. We got many compliments on our music selections throughout the evening, but we had to admit that we just gave the broad ideas for what to play. We had lots of great dancing music, everyone had a wonderful time and our DJ played a big part in creating such a fun event.

tood our vibe. He was amazing at reading the room and kept the energy high the entire night. The music was a major highlight of our night!

t have been happier. He knew just what music to play and when, and kept up a fun and entertaining atmosphere throughout our reception. Our photographer, Heather, was so flexible when some of our ceremony plans changed last minute. She was accommodating and efficient, and also very skilled at putting people at ease for photos. Thanks again to the whole team!
