Shut Down Productions

because unlike other vendors, you don't really know what you're going to get (unless you've been to a wedding with the vendor). That is to say - there's no instagram post or youtube clip or photo that does it justice. So without any references (we didn't know anyone who had gotten married recently in south FL)...I set off to find a band or DJ who had three qualities: (1) Ability to corral people, make announcements, etc. (2) Ability to read a room, get people moving and play good music to our taste and (3) Responsible and communicative vendor. Often times you'll get a DJ who plays a great set, but they're awful at speaking and making announcements. Other times it's the opposite. When I saw DJ BJ (Burton)'s background, I knew he was our best chance to get all three. He is a radio DJ on the weekends (ability to make announcements and interact with strangers), he plays at Miami clubs at night (can read a room and play good music), and he is the owner of Shutdown Productions (professional and reliable). He way exceeded all our expectations by a landslide. Because I had some other vendor issues the week of, I didn't have much time to micromanage DJ BJ....and with the little information I provided Burton...wow. His ability to adjust on the fly (because no wedding goes exactly the way it's planned), the music he played, his ability to seamlessly transition one song to another, his clear communication with us. You won't be disappointed. I think we all wanted to bring him back with us to the after party, if only he didn't have to jet off and play at the club that evening :) DJ BJ is a top notch professional. I know his business will go very far! Do yourself a favor and hire him.

to. AL P was personable and fun and was SO accommodating. He brought the party. Look no further than this guy. An absolute gem!!

st party of our lifetime. We kicked off 2023 with an absolute banger and we couldn't have been happier. Thank you for all of your dedication, planning, and effort in making our wedding truly magical.

photo booth! Burton made everything easy for me process wise leading up to my wedding. I just had to tell him the vibe I was looking for and he took it and ran with it. He accommodated my last minute requests for the 360 photo booth with no issue (the 360 photo booth was worth every dollar and you get to keep all the videos). Thank you again to the Shut Down Productions team!! I had nothing but positive feedback from all my friends and family about how great the DJ was.

redibly professional And attentive. I highly recommend this company

I am 5mo pregnant with swollen feet and ended up dancing most of the night because he had me so hype! I got so many compliments on how great he was and I’m so grateful I found him on theknot.com! Absolutely recommend for your event. We booked DJ services and the digital photo booth which was a huge hit and allowed us to have great photos with our guests!

who had used his DJ services. From our first phone call till the day of the wedding he was very attentive, punctual and answered all of our questions. On the day of our wedding he was the first one there and had everything set up when we walked into the venue. I highly recommend his services! We had glow sticks, Flaming donuts, and a live guitarist but by far the thing that set off the wedding for the guests was the 360 photo booth. It was a great way to bring together the memories of our wedding and have all of our guests interact. Everyone got to keep a custom memory of the event and the following day he sent us over a link with all of the amazing photos that everyone had taken. Had it not been for this we would’ve missed so much because we were running around doing a million things. I can’t recommend his services enough!

ct. I would definitely recommend Shutdown!!!!

d issues. I am completely thankful.

d ever been to! I would highly recommend and will definately use shut down productions in the future! DJ Al is the MAN!

edding seemed timeless with no hiccups. I had the best time of my life that night thanks to them! Thank you for making our day amazing! Will recommend to everyone I know.

s that helped make our special day so memorable and wonderful. You won’t regret choosing them!

flow of the night. I would recommend Burton and his crew to anyone looking for an amazing DJ/ MC.

or I think their minds were a little blown. When searching for a DJ we wanted to make sure we didn't hire the traditional wedding DJ that plays full 3-4 min versions of every song and basically presses play on their Spotify playlist. The mashups/setlist was exactly what we were looking for! We had a small wedding of 65 people (half young people, half older crowd) and I was worried people wouldn't be dancing. The dance floor was packed all night. He was able to read the room so well and tailor the music to who was on the dance floor. The next day at our brunch everyone was talking about how amazing the DJ was. We already have family members wondering how they can book Burton for their events in Texas!! If you're like me, you probably read through all of these reviews and are wondering if Shut Down Productions are too good to be true... I can tell you every review lives up to the hype. Do yourself a favor and go ahead and book them!!

everything that I had on my list. I would definitely 100 times over recommended him for any party!!! Thank you :)

as paid a bit more attention to; we sent him a playlist of 120+ songs of what we'd like played at our wedding (obviously didn't expect everything to be played, but there were a good amount of songs played that weren't on our playlist.. wish our song selection was better utilized/prepared) BUT it still was a great dance-a-thon. Even played some great indie/emo jams my wife prepared & wanted for a good nostalgic 30 minute dance off with friends. All in All- would use again and refer to anyone in need of a great DJ & person to work with! Thanks Burton!

und, mic presence, song selection, mixing, playing our favorite songs and genres, DJ Burton J SHUT IT DOWN! We will hire for future engagements.

him a huge must play song list and HE KILLED IT! We spent most of the night on the dance floor and EVERYONE was talking about how great the music was (even the older crowd). I would recommend DJ Burton without hesitation and he really made my wedding extra special!! The reviews are right, do not keep looking and just book him!!

our expectations!! We had all ages and all ethnicities at our reception and EVERYONE was on the dance floor. Our guests can’t stop raving about the party and the music. He worked with our Hora Loca seamlessly and it was a blast!! We will forever be grateful to Shut Down for making our wedding dreams come true. Thank you thank you thank you!!

ek later our guests are still saying "what a party," "most fun wedding ever," "great night," even "wedding of the year" and it's only March! Alex was awesome as our MC for the night, CeeJay the DJ was on point, and the 360° video booth was a hit! I want to have another wedding JUST so I can hire them again. Thank you guys again for a night no one will forget!!

ek and hosted a Miami Nights themed celebration on a Saturday night. Our goal was to host a party that was fun enough to justify having 100+ out-of-towners fly in for just one night, and we chose Shut Down Productions to DJ that party. WOW, did they deliver! Burton and his MC kept the energy high throughout the evening and did such a great job that I overheard several local guests approach them and ask for a business card so they could hire them in the future. The icing on the cake was the last song... The MC got everyone onto the dance floor expecting a slow, romantic song, and then our raunchy booty-shaking selection hit the speakers and the crowd went nuts! It was the absolute perfect ending to an awesome party.

hich I really appreciated. He directed our whole reception flawlessly. Everyone had such a great time because of him. My one friend immediately booked him after coming to our wedding. We did the slideshow photobooth and it looked amazing! During the night if we wanted a certain song he would immediately put it on. I cannot say enough good things about him. He kept the party going, was such a blast to work with, and best of all he made everything stress free.

e after the wedding getting his information. He really knew how to get people on the dancefloor and kept the party going for as long as we could. The whole team is amazing! 10/10 recommend.
