We truly were wowed by Stephen’s performance at our wedding. He made our meeting prior to go over the day very easy and comfortable, and then kept the energy up and exciting the whole night. He was really able to match the vibes of our wedding (he played the pokemon theme song and popular from wicked which were huge hits and things we didn't ask for!). We’ve had multiple guests tell us they thought he was the “best DJ ever,” so we’re very happy with his services!

The process for setting up our music for the evening was very straightforward and easy! They have a huge selection of songs, but even if they didn’t have the ones you needed they had no problem getting what you need. The night of the father of the bride requested a song that wasn’t in their repertoire (with only 10 mins left in the night) and our DJ went out of his way to play it. It was amazing and we were getting compliments on the music all night.

10/10 STARS!!!
We were paired with DJ Quince (emcee) and Pat C (DJ) through Simply DJ's.
Wedding Ceremony: Our team arrived early and set up both in the ceremony and reception areas. These guys had everything ready to go before the ceremony start time and were incredibly professional. They found me and introduced themselves before getting to work and were incredibly professional, efficient, and brought such a good and happy vibe to our day. They gave our officiant had a microphone that projected loudly to the whole crowd and they played our requested processional and recessional songs at exactly the right times.
Wedding Reception: WE HAD THE BEST TIME!!!!!! I cannot say this enough!!!! Our guests were talking about how amazing both DJ Quince & Pat C were weeks after the wedding was over. DJ Quince got everyone on the dance floor. Not only did he get everyone on the dance floor, but he got them to stay on the dance floor. He kept the guests energized, he was so fun, he kept things moving, and was really everything we could have asked for in an emcee. Pat C was on fire all night long!!! We gave them a list of 20 must-play songs and he played every single one. He also followed the vibe we asked for which was a heavy millennial mix with some newer and older songs mixed in to keep all guests happy, entertained, and dancing. I was so excited for the reception all day long and they gave us the party we were hoping to have. We just wanted to dance, party, and have the best time all night long which is exactly what these two did for us.
Planning Process: We had an incredible experience from start to finish! Their website was so easy to navigate, the pricing info was clearly listed on their website which was so appreciated, and getting in touch with this company was so easy. We reached out to Simply DJ's to see if they would be a good match for our wedding (lgbt wedding) and they immediately made us feel comfortable from the start. The planning process which included review and signing of contracts, payment, and planning out the wedding day was made so easy. Throughout the whole process, they were incredibly responsive. About 2 weeks prior to the wedding, DJ Quince and I scheduled a call to review the timeline of events, the specifics of each event that would take place that day, and the words we wanted him to use to. He even accommodated some special requests which included mixing 2 songs together for my daughter/mother dance and using a specific edited version of our first dance song from YouTube.
Overall: We were so happy with our decision to go with Simply DJ's and I'm so happy we were paired with DJ Quince & Pat C. They were incredible and gave us the party of our lives! I promise you won't be disappointed if you do the same.
THANK YOU DJ QUINCE, PAT C, AND SIMPLY DJ's!!! :)

Nick was absolutely AMAZING. My wedding was a week ago and I'm still getting texts about how great he was. He was incredibly easy to work with during the planning process, listened to our requests and most importantly, kept everyone dancing all night. I’ll definitely recommend Simply DJs and Nick to anyone I know needing a DJ.

Had an amazing experience working with Simply DJ’s for our daughter’s Sweet 16. Their price was perfect and the online portal was super easy to use and they answered all questions in an extremely timely fashion. DJ Quince was professional and personable. The zoom meeting we had with him before the party was very helpful. He was able to answer our daughter’s questions and ease her mind as well as give us an idea of how the party was going to flow. He played all the songs we put as must plays on the portal as well as took a few requests during the party. He played the perfect mix for a sweet 16. Would absolutely recommend them and use them again!

We used Simply DJs for our wedding in October of this year and wow did they just absolutely nail it! From the first call with our DJ, Sam, we knew that we were in good hands. We told him the kind of vibe that we wanted and he created the exact right atmosphere for our wedding. Everyone was out on the dance floor all night and DJ Sam was able to keep the party going without being overbearing. We got so many compliments on the music! Could not recommend Simply DJs more!

Our wedding DJ, Stephen was AMAZING. From our meetings prior to the day, Stephen knew exactly the vibe and music taste we wanted. I can honestly say, our wedding has been the only wedding we've been to where the dance floor is packed all night! Stephen did an excellent job MCing and keeping the music flowing from one hit to the next. 100/10 reccommend Stephen.

1000/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Have Nick DJ your next event you won’t be disappointed! He was my fiancé and I DJ for our engagement party and he killed it from start to finish! He was super fun, engaged with the crowd, did all the announcements I asked him to do, played every song I requested and most importantly kept the party going! I have zero regrets with picking him to be our DJ and will be rebooking him for our wedding now as well!

Our wedding was on 9-15-23 and we are still, almost two weeks later, getting calls and texts about how fun the night was. Alex from Simply DJs was FANTASTIC and had everyone dancing the entire night. We couldn't have imagined a more perfect night. Thank you to Simply DJs and especially to Alex for his professionalism, organization and collaboration. He truly worked with us every step of the way to deliver what we wanted and make it a magical night!!!

Stephen DJed our wedding on 7/15 and he was the best! Was definitely the reading the room and had everyone up and dancing. We had a ton of specific wants for our cocktail music, music, and reception, and he hit everything that we wanted. And zero of the corny-ness that you might get from other wedding DJs! Cannot recommend Simply DJs enough.

Our DJ Pedro did a fantastic job at our wedding! The whole process overall was so easy with their online portal to upload music and mark your "Must Plays". They checked in a few times leading up to the big day, and we had a meeting before the wedding to go over the timelines and any specifics.
Pedro did a great job reading the vibe of the room during the whole reception and even though it was a smaller wedding (60ish), the dance floor was full almost the entire night!
Would absolutely recommend Simply DJs to anyone who wants a fun night of music at their wedding.

Our DJ Nick was AWESOME! He was extremely professional and provided amazing music and great remixes. He’s a very talented DJ. He played all of our requested songs, and was really able to read the crowd. He was a pleasure to work with.

Simply DJs was a great vendor. Communication was easy and the interface they use for planning was user friendly.
Stephen absolutely exceeded our expectations! We had a blast at our wedding and he got (and kept) everyone out on the dance floor. He listened attentively to our requests and made sure we had everything we needed, even with some last minute changes. More than that, he had something you can’t plan for-a gift to really read the room and cater to our guests tastes. People had the best time dancing to high school throwbacks that I couldn’t have even predicted in my own planning. Our guests were raving about him all night!

I am so happy that we chose Simply Dj's! We had Duran for our wedding and our dance floor was never empty. Duran was so helpful leading up to the day. I had some unusual requests - I had family from Ireland so wanted to play a few Irish songs and also had a bagpipe band perform and Duran perfectly timed it all. He read the room and played a mix of everything (that we had on our must plays). We had several friends after the wedding tell us it was 'the wedding of the century' and I attribute a lot of that to Duran!! I also have a bridesmaid who has hired Simply DJs for her wedding in September and now she has one less stress off her back knowing she is in good hands. Thank you again!!

We had a great experience with Simply DJs for our wedding! Our DJ, Alfonso, put us at ease with how thorough he was with reviewing the song selection process, and was also on the same page as us as in terms of the vibe we were seeking. We had several “unconventional” song requests for intros and he absolutely nailed it. We also made several last-minute changes that he accommodated very well. Our guests loved the music and he did a great job. The quality we got from their services went way above our expectations considering how competitive their pricing is, and the process of selecting songs and creating the music timeline on their website is straightforward and intuitive. We highly recommend Simply DJs :)

We had Sam as our DJ and he was amazing! He definitely exceeded our expectations in every way. We spoke to him a week before the event and discussed the music style/vibe we were going for at our wedding and he took that information and successfully ran with it. He incorporated most of the songs we had initiatially provided and did an incredible job supplementing the playlist when necessary. It was obvious he enjoys his job as he didn't just stand behind the booth and play music, but encouraged people to dance with his lively spirit and positiive energy. We have had a lot of guests sincerely comment on how great of a job he did as well. We would without a doubt hire Sam/Simply DJs again for a future event!

We had Alfonso as our DJ and he was great to work with. A week or two before the event, we spoke about the timeline, details, and music for the wedding. He was very thorough and helpful with the music planning for the event. He was very responsive to any questions we had even after our phone call. The day of the wedding he played all of our must play songs and then some. He kept our families dancing all night! People kept telling us it was the best wedding they've ever been to. Wonderful and would absolutely recommend Alfonso from Simply DJs to anyone looking for a DJ. Thank you to Simply DJs and Alfonso for a great night of dancing and great songs!

We had Johnny as our DJ, and he was absolutely amazing! He was the highlight of our wedding, and the guests loved him. His mixes, song choices, personality, and energy was top notch! We were soo impressed with everything. He kept everyone on the dance floor all night long and does amazing crowd work to get them hype. A big part of our family is Hispanic, and he was able to cater to that side perfectly, which was very important to us. I would book him again in a heartbeat. :)
The planning process was a breeze. Prices were extremely reasonable. I booked ceremony, cocktail, reception & a photobooth without breaking the bank. I filled out a questionnaire and the DJ did a meeting with us to go over final details a week or two prior.

We had a stellar experience with Simply DJ's. From scheduling to the incredibly well thought out questionnaire we felt that we had all of our bases covered well before the day of. We pulled together a small-medium size wedding in our yard and didn't have a coordinator. Stephen not only showed up early but had everything set up with no help from us! He incorporated all of our preselected music excellently and we received comments from our guests that it was nothing but one great song after another. He really knew the crowd. Stephen stayed in touch with us throughout to make sure we were on schedule and that he had all of the correct queues. He asked thoughtful questions about the ceremony and the timeline, was pivotal in moving the evening along, incredibly easy to work with, and made us feel comfortable. The entire experience was incredible, I could not have asked for anything better!!

I have nothing but great things to say about Sam, from our first meeting (communication) was key to getting to know us.
To the day of …it rained (wedding day) …bridge closing and although he only had about maybe 30 min before wedding time (because of the delay getting there) he was on time. My guest were super happy, the dance floor was never empty. Sam was amazing and on point. I would 1000 percent recommend this company and Sam.

The whole process with Simply DJs and with Sam was excellent! It was very easy to get contracted and use the client portal. In our call a week before the event, Sam anticipated our needs and made sure the event was going to happen exactly the way we wanted it to be. On the night of, he read the room perfectly and found the right times to play the right music. Everyone was up and dancing, and almost everyone we talked to complimented us on the music selections (much of which we left up to Sam’s expertise). We can’t thank Sam and the Simply DJs team enough!

I could not say enough positive things and thank you's to the entire team. Brandon from the start answered all of our questions and put us in touch with our DJ Sam. Sam met with us 2/3x and we went over the entire day together and he guaranteed us all would be perfect. He exceeded our expectations from the very second we walked into our venue. Sam kept the party going, the dance floor was packed the entire night, and so many guests commented on how great the DJ was both the night of the wedding and weeks after. Sam was instrumental on making our wedding everything we wanted! THANK YOU!

We had an amazing experience with Simply DJs! From the beginning there was excellent communication and fast responses from the company. Simply Djs provided the equipment and music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Our DJ, Sam, was INCREDIBLE! He spoke with us several days before the wedding to get a feel for the type of music we wanted for our reception and he nailed it. Sam was easy to get along with and checked in with us throughout the wedding to make sure everything was going well. He did a great job setting up the sound system for our ceremony. The audio was very clear even though it was outside on the beach. The playlist for our reception matched the vibe we were looking for perfectly, and had lots of people dancing the entire night. We are so happy that we went with Simply for our wedding, and can't speak highly enough about the company and especially our DJ, Sam!

Everything was awesome! From the beginning when speaking to Brandon about pricing and our contract, to the end of the event with DJ Tommy at our event… it was a positive experience! The call with DJ Tommy prior to the event was very helpful, he was friendly and easy to talk to. We went over all of our song selections and I told him my side of the family is big on line dancing and he delivered! He was very communicative with me during the event as well. There was not a dull moment on the dance floor, except when everyone was having dinner lol. I received nothing but compliments for DJ Tommy and the music he played throughout the night. Thank you so so much! Everyone had a blast at the wedding! I highly recommend DJ Tommy and this company, and will definitely recommend them to my family and friends should a need for a DJ arise in the future. Our utmost appreciation and gratitude to DJ Tommy and the rest of the Simply DJs crew for making our wedding memorable!

Our experience with Simply DJ’s was wonderful! As the name implies, the whole process was so simple and efficient. While they are reasonably priced, their services are of the utmost quality! Simply DJs had an easy online playlist database, straightforward day of event scheduling forms, and convenient phone calls to go through all the details. DJ Alfonso was attentive, walked us through each step of preparation, and was also patient (as I was indecisive so many times over what songs to play). The day of our wedding, Alfonso arrived early, came prepared and everything went so smoothly from ceremony to last song. So many guests came up to my husband and I at our wedding saying the music and DJ were amazing! DJ Alfonso went above and beyond in helping run our special day and we were so thankful to have him a part of it!!

Brian Uychich did a phenomenal job DJing our big day, and kept my mind at ease from our first phone call!
From the pre-ceremony music all the way to the end of the reception, he curated the perfect playlist to keep everyone smiling, engaged and on the dance floor.
All of our guests complimented the music for the entire event, and I couldn't be happier. I spent most of the night on the dancefloor!
The feature of a planning portal on their website made everything easy and convenient.
I would highly reccomend this DJ service for any event.

DJ Dave was spectacular at our wedding. I had a number of guests come up to me and tell me how good the music was as well as the flow of the music choices. They were impressed! Dave has great energy; positive, enthusiastic, charismatic, and he got just about everyone to dance (even my oldest relatives). We had the most epic conga line.
I was personally blown away with the way that Dave integrated the 50s jazz, 80s rock, 90s rap, and current hits that we requested. Dave curated the music so there were smooth transitions between the music and so that it all culminated in a poppin dance floor at the end of the night. Communication was smooth and hassle- free through the entire process.

We used Simply DJ's for our wedding reception, and couldn't be happier. From the first phone call to discuss what we were looking for, to the ease of selecting songs through their website, to the actual event, it couldn't have been easier or more enjoyable. Our DJ, Julian, was fantastic. He seamlessly interwove the "must play" songs on our list with requests the night of the ceremony as well as his own selection of songs to keep the party going. The dance floor was never empty, even during the dinner hour, and it was a very memorable evening. We would absolutely recommend Simply DJ's for a wedding, and would ask for Julian again without a moment's hesitation.
