Peter at Soundchoice events was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding. The process of choosing songs, a walkout, etc. we’re all extremely seamless and easy with his guidance! He did a great job interacting with the crowd, meshing songs together, and moving in and out of different parts of the event. I definitely would recommend Peter and Soundchoice events for any important event in your life!

Peter was the perfect DJ for our wedding!! He played all our favorite songs, kept the dance floor lively, and was an amazing MC. His music choices for both the ceremony and reception were spot-on, making the whole event feel special and personal. He was also extremely organized and was available for multiple calls to review the logistics and important details prior to our big day. If you want your wedding to be fun and memorable, Peter's the DJ to book!!!

We highly recommend working with Sound Choice and Peter. The communication leading up to our wedding was very thorough and Peter made sure every detail was to our liking. Our guests didn’t leave the dance floor all night and all raved about how fun the night was. We were very happy we chose Sound Choice.

Peter at Sound Choice Events was a great DJ and MC at our wedding.
From the start, Peter scheduled a phone call with us to understand the vibe we were going for, our likes/dislikes, and the overall flow of events for the day.
He mic'd up our ceremony, played music during our cocktail hour & dinner, and had an assistant that operated a photo booth after dinner. He also brought uplighting that added some fun ambiance.
Everything worked flawlessly and we didn't have to worry about any of it on our big day.
Most importantly, the dance floor was packed and everyone had a blast.
Definitely recommended! A+

Everyone had a blast with Peter as our DJ! His skillfully curated playlist kept the energy high. Most people stayed on the dance floor until it was time to leave. Our guests still talk about how much fun they had. During the planning process, Peter offered his experienced opinion in a respectful way that also left room for our vision. Highly recommended for anyone looking to elevate their wedding atmosphere!

We used Soundchoice Events for our 12/31/23 wedding. Peter, the owner, was excellent from start to finish. On our pre-wedding calls, he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful while also listening to the things we liked and didn’t like. He was instrumental in helping us understand the flow of the night and having a better picture of what we were doing.
Day of, he was amazing during the ceremony, people even commented how great he was at adjusting sound and volume as we went and it was seamless. Then, during the reception, he helped us keep to a schedule and was a wonderful advisor. He also gave us a package with a photo booth that people LOVED.
But the best part, the dance floor was PACKED all. Night. Long. We could not have asked for better entertainment, we had the night of our lives ! You cannot go wrong with hiring Peter for your events.

Peter was very helpful, responsive and knowledgeable throughout our entire wedding process on anything related to music, lighting, speeches, photo booth setup, etc. He and his team did an amazing job with the music selection, DJ/MC, and the photo booth that everyone loved.

Peter was phenomenal throughout the entire process. His experience and general music knowledge were extremely helpful throughout the entire planning process. And his performance through the party itself was incredible - he had such a great awareness of what was exciting the crowd and tailored music choices to keep our guests highly engaged throughout the entire evening. I would highly recommend!

Peter was FANTASTIC!! He did such a great job with all of the little things we wanted for both our ceremony and for our reception. The dance floor was literally never empty. He also did uplighting for us and I don't think we ever went over the color but he went for it and the whole venue looked amazing. Would definitely recommend him to family/friends!!

Hello, my name is Greg Hitchcock, I am a wedding photographer in Boston, Peter from Sound Choice was the DJ at a very recent wedding I captured, I was very impressed with his smooth ability to run and guide a reception from start to finish. Everything, the introductions, the dances, the speeches, as well as getting everyone out on the dance floor with done with ease and excitement. I would highly recommend him for your wedding reception needs.

Peter was super responsive and always got back to me right away. Peter was very attentive, making great suggestions on music selections; he executed all the details so perfectly!
The dance floor was packed all night long and my guests have said it was an absolute blast! The day was everything I had hoped for and more! Thank you to Peter and Sound Choice Events for making our wedding so memorable!

DJ Peter did an amazing job for our wedding. He stayed in touch with me through the whole planning process making sure we were on the same page and everything was exactly how we wanted it to go. He was so great about reading the room and knowing what everyone was wanting. We even requested a song from one of our friends small band and he was able to find the song and play it for us. We even had guests come up to us and rave about how great the DJ did. I absolutely recommend hiring Peter for your future events and weddings.

Peter was our amazing DJ and really made our wedding experience very special. He is very professional, organized, helpful, and knows how to get a crowd to dance all night. We enjoyed working with him with his easy-going approach and helpful advice. He worked well with our cocktail pianist to transition the reception from the historical house to the beautiful tent setting. We were married on a 90-degree afternoon and our guests danced the entire day. The wedding guests loved the music and had great things to say about Peter. Our biggest thanks to Peter on a wonderful day!

Peter was the best DJ that we could've asked for our wedding! He continuously connected with us throughout the planning process to make sure that we are comfortable with the planning process, gave us suggestions based on his expertise and became familiar with all our specific links for our requested Indian music! The guests had a blast on the dance floor, and he ensured that the night went smoothly with the reception hall! I loved all of the music at our wedding, and it was a night to never forget thanks to Peter!

We planned our wedding in 6 months and knew we quickly need to book a DJ. We were so lucky that Pete was the first DJ we met with. From the moment we met with Pete, we liked him right away! During our first meeting, he took the time to answer all our questions, from how to keep the dance floor busy, and how to handle COVID protocols.
He was a true professional and a pleasure to work with. He was gracious enough to help us understand the natural fluctuation of wedding plan. Pete offered and made himself available to answer any questions, especially as our wedding approached.
He also gave us a lot of really helpful suggestions on how and when different activities such as the first dance, toasts, etc. could take place, and on musical selections! He also worked really well with the jazz musicians we had from the cocktail hour into dinner. It was a seamless transition that made dinner really fun.
At Pete's suggestion, we included uplighting based on the size of the space and number of guests. This was BIG hit with our guests and it added a great energy/vibe to the dance floor.
We had small wedding (35 people) so we thought the dance floor would have its ebbs and flow, but DJ Pete kept the party going. The dance floor was packed the entire night!! One of the highlights we still keep hearing from our guests was how much they enjoyed the music/DJ.
If you have a chance, hire Pete as your DJ for your wedding or any other event where you want people to dance the night away! You and your guests will have such an amazing time. He really made our wedding a special event and we can't thank him enough!!!

Peter was great to work with! He is knowledgeable, approachable, thorough, and quick with communication. Peter kept in contact with us throughout the planning process and on the wedding day to ensure we were getting the experience we wanted. Our wedding had to be postponed due to covid and Peter was very accommodating and helpful during that stressful time. We wanted to hire a DJ that would read the room to keep our guests on the dance floor and Peter made that happen! We had a photo booth that was very safe and clean with his attendant. Everything with Sound Choice Events was high quality. The microphones and speakers were clear, uplighting set the atmosphere, and Peter kept everyone dancing. Highly recommend!

I would gladly recommend Sound Choice Events to anyone I know who is planning on having a wedding, party, or gathering of any kind. They are attentive to every detail, and genuinely eager to ensure that your "perfect party" comes to life. My wife and I feel so grateful that we found them to DJ our wedding, where several people came up to us and complimented the quality and attentiveness of their work. I can't recommend them enough!! Truly a 10 out of 10.

Peter made the night so much fun for every age at the wedding. The young and old never left the dance floor. The bride and groom had smiles on their faces at the end of the night because they got to enjoy their night with everyone dancing and taking pictures in the photo booth. Peter helped to make sure the right music was play just at the right time.

Peter is a PHENOMENAL DJ. From the very beginning, Peter was prepared with a document to complete with every single detail of the evening. We then walked through that document a number of times leading up to ensure we were on the same page. Peter really understood our vision and vibe for the night and delivered on it. He even pulled me over with 30 minutes left to consult on the fact that every song counted and that he wanted to make sure he was getting everything we wanted. I would recommend him a thousand times over, whether you want to be really involved in the music process or not, Peter knows how to adapt to your style!

Had a great experience with Peter for our wedding last summer at Tower Hill Botanic Gardens. He was in touch multiple times before the event to ensure he could make our event exactly how we envisioned it, and the night of the wedding he was present, attentive, and able to immediately adapt to the mood of the room. He brought everyone onto the dance floor for the Horah and then seamlessly transitioned to some 2000s hits. A few of my friends commented that they had the best night ever because he magically played all their favorite songs! Highly recommend Peter and his crew.

Our experience with DJ Peter was incredible. He truly made planning stress free and his attention to detail allowed us to fully enjoy our wedding day. He was very accommodating to all of our requests. His skill as a DJ is also impressive and he seamlessly plays off of the party as to how he will make his next move and song selection. He managed to somehow mix a VERY LARGE selection of Latin and American music. Our guests raved about their experience on the dance floor. Not a single person stopped dancing all night. Highly recommend! Thanks for everything Peter!

We hired the services of Peter from Sound Choice Events for our 6/8/2019 wedding at the Oceanview of Nahant. From the get-go, Peter was excellent to work with. We met with him in the Summer of 2018 to get the ball rolling and gave him an idea of what we were looking for in terms of the style of our wedding. Peter was totally onboard with our vision. He offered his expertise where it was needed, and we trusted him enough to give him creative license over the general flow and feel of the wedding process. He did not disappoint, as he oversaw our wedding day music with fantastic expertise and professionalism. As for the time leading up to the wedding, Peter did a great job staying in touch with us throughout the planning process. He would check in with us to see how our planning in general was going, and offered up helpful advise where and when he was able to. He did a fantastic job all around, and we highly recommend his very reasonably priced services for anyone looking for an excellent wedding DJ!!

Peter spent so much time with me on the phone, getting to know the vibe we wanted, who our guests were, etc. He didn't mind the endless questions and offered some great advice when I was unsure about introductions or first dance, etc. The day of the wedding went exactly how he said it would - he checked in with me often and he did everything perfectly. We wanted a dancing vibe - no slow song! And he delivered the best party ever. I gave him about 25 songs and the other songs he filled in around those were perfect. Highly recommend!

Sound Choice is the best! Peter was knowledgeable about a wide range of music and he helped us figure out how to play some of our more unusual selections without killing the dance floor!
We also used Sound Choice for our uplights and photo-booth, which were both great. Getting to see the pictures after the wedding was so much fun. Who knew that aunt annie was that daring-ha ha!
Thank you to Peter and the Sound Choice team. We've got some friends getting married soon and they'll be reaching out to book you for sure!

We were lucky to get Kevin from Sound Choice Events and he was PERFECT. My husband and I pretty much picked out a few songs for each segment of the day (prelude, cocktails, dinner, dancing) and told him the general feel we were going for and he delivered. He not only listened to us, but also knew how to work the crowd. People were dancing at every opportunity and it was such a blast. Only thing that happened that could have been better was the microphone as it kept going in and out during the toast. Would still highly recommend.

Peter at Sound Choice had a bit of a challenge with us. We were just too easy going, giving very little direction. To add on to this, our wedding was a day time, primarily outdoor wedding without most of the traditional pomp and circumstance. Peter did a great job taking the few directions that we had and improvising the rest. Things went off truly seamlessly. Throughout the process, he was great at checking in with us and discussing next steps and making sure everyone was happy. Some of my favorite pictures from our wedding are of Peter sharing the DJ booth with one of our youngest (5 year old) guests, letting her wear the headphones and play around. Overall, we had a great experience with Peter and Sound Choice and would highly recommend their services!

My dad was convinced that my wedding wouldn't be complete without a photo booth, so I contacted Peter Hallisey at Sound Choice Events. Peter was great. He worked with me to determine the right services for my event (the right booth size and up lighting for the venue) and was super flexible when I had an unexpected venue change. I must have emailed Peter over 50 times throughout the process and never had to wait very long for a thorough response. The lighting made our high school cafeteria wedding feel more formal and folks had an amazing time in the photo booth. The email to self option was super easy and everyone loved the printed photo strips. And I got a digital copy of all of the pictures that week. Also, paying through the PayPal link on the website was so easy. One delta that my day-of coorindator just informed me of is that our lighting tech person was unapologetically an hour late for setup time.

I cannot recommend DJ Peter highly enough! We had some difficulty finding a DJ because my parents are lawyers and wanted to renegotiate every contract- Peter was the only one who was willing to work with us and adjust the contract- which was a good sign from the start! Peter was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process and was very communicative and accommodating. He spoke to us in detail about what we wanted and our vision for the wedding and checked in with us throughout the night on the day of. His prices are also very reasonable. Most importantly, Peter had everyone dancing the entire night! He played the many songs we requested and did a great job of reading the crowd. Literally everyone danced, which was all I really wanted for our reception- I could not have been happier!

Peter was absolutely AMAZING! From the first point of contact with him all the way through the wedding, he was super helpful, professional, and organized. As for the wedding reception, he kept the dance floor going the entire night, until the moment the wedding ended and the lights came on. Our guests were still in party mode to the point that most of them joined us in the bar for an after-party. Thank you Peter! I couldn't have picked a better DJ!

Peter at Sound Choice was super easy to work with from our initial request for information. He spelled everything out, including various options and kept great notes. We hired our DJ and photo booth through sound choice, both of which were great. Mark Bloomstein was our DJ, who kept the party going all night long, took requests and gave us good recommendations while planning. The photo booth was a major hit, with fun props and a helpful attendant, even the staff at our venue commented on how efficient and organized they were at setting up and breaking down. Highly recommend these guys if you are planning for a good time!

We had Peter as our DJ for the wedding and he was very responsive and flexible. We added on a photo booth and upgraded our uplighting and he was able to accomodate us. I would definitely recommend using him as a DJ. He also did not charge us extra for travel to Vermont, which we appreciated. Peter helped us think about how we wanted the flow of events to go at our reception. He was a great resource.

Peter and Erin are amazing DJs, and we highly recommend them. Both were very responsive and accommodating leading up to the wedding.
We had initially signed the contract for Peter after seeing him at our friends’ wedding. We had to change the date of our wedding, and Peter wasn’t available, so we ended up with Erin, who was also fantastic.
Before the wedding, Erin was very responsive and communicative to make sure she understood the vision we had for our wedding. Erin listened to our requests, she checked in frequently on the night of the wedding, and she communicated well to make sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible. During our cocktail hour, we had deluge, which required Erin to re-setup all of her equipment. She handled the situation very well, checking in to let us know what was going on, but making sure there was no disruption for our guests. During the reception, Erin had to initially prod the guests to get on the dance floor. After the first song, however, people didn’t stop dancing. Erin read the crowd perfectly, and people said it was the most fun they had ever had at a wedding.
We highly recommend Sound Choice!

My wife and I used Peter and Sound Choice for our wedding, and we were more than happy with our choice. Selecting a good DJ is crucial to a wedding, and from the very first meeting, Peter was more than helpful with the entire process.
We were very budget conscious, and Peter was very accommodating with regards to helping us stay within our budget. I know a lot of DJs are hard to deal with in that regard, but Peter's ability to work with us, and not turn his nose up gave us a great feeling right from the beginning.
We went in knowing what we wanted (for the most part), but Peter was excellent with suggestions and recommendations, but still made sure he catered to our wants and needs without being pushy at all. Peter is also very aware and sensitive to how the bride and groom want the DJ to act in regards to energy level, chasing the crowd, etc., and he was just the right amount of energetic for what we wanted!
His music selection was great, and that is also key, but Peter had some pretty obscure music in his catalog, and was also willing and able to locate the few songs we requested for the reception, which was awesome.
He did a wonderful job emceeing, and did an excellent job with announcements and name pronunciations, which can often be over-looked, but Peter was keen on ensuring that he was pronouncing every person's name correctly.
At the back half of our reception, we had a smaller crowd on the floor, and I was coming up to Peter practically after (or even during) each song requesting specific songs (some not even on our list) and he was truly excellent with that, and had no problems keeping up with my back-to-back (to back!) song requests. I also appreciated the way he was able to "fade" in between songs, which is a small detail, but something that I loved about Peter's DJing style.
We will certainly recommend Peter and Sound Choice to our friends and family (and anyone reading this) for DJing services for weddings, or really any other occasion!

We hired Peter to DJ our wedding and were ABSOLUTELY thrilled with his performance! He was super responsive by phone/email and met with us twice in person to review all the details. A huge plus to the process was his 'planning tool' that he gave us after we booked and that covers every detail from before the ceremony to the after party-it helped keep me focused even with my other vendors and planning! Peter really listened to us as we had several unusual requests in terms of dancing (music choices) & made suggestions on how to make everything work just right so we got the day we had always wanted.
Peter was very professional with us and our vendors (they even commented on it too) and when it was time to dance, Peter packed the floor and kept it that way ALL night long!
Sound Choice has a lot of great services to offer, we added the photobooth and uplighting to our package and they were a big hit! The room was a bit tricky, but Peter set the lights up perfectly so it made the room shine and guests loved taking home photos from the booth-and we even got copies of all the pics on a cd soon after our wedding-SO much fun to see what everyone was up to in there!
GREAT NIGHT, GREAT ENTERTAINMENT-BEST WEDDING EVER (if I do say so myself)...thanks Peter!

Erin, our DJ for the day, was able to extrapolate our list of requests and turn it into a fun, danceable night, filled with songs we love. She was able to work with our guest-make-up and create a playlist that was fun for many different demographics.
I would highly recommend Sound Choice. They offer many levels of service, so you can get high-quality DJs at a very reasonable price.

She was awesome in our pre-wedding meeting, had amazing communication before the wedding and even checked in with us several times during the wedding to make sure we were happy! We also used uplighting & their photobooth. Our dance floor was packed all night. Use them. I've been to two weddings with them DJing and can't say enough good things about them!!

DJ Erin really helped pull our wedding together and made it run smoothly. She met with us twice prior to the wedding to get a clear sense of what we were looking for and did a fantastic job incorporating our various musical interests!

Peter and his assistant are amazing. I didn't have to worry about a thing leading up to or the night of the wedding. Peter is professional and knows how to get the crowd (and keep them) dancing! I didn't want the night to end!

I had Peter (the owner) as my dj and he did an excellent job. I had him play for my ceremony as well as the cocktail hour and reception and played what I asked as well as throwing in his own music after reading the crowd!
Sound Choice is also very reasonably priced and I would definitely recommend them to other brides and grooms!

They're a pretty good value in comparison to other DJs around. I liked that they had a template to gather all the info you'd give them for the announcements, order of things, etc. Our dj only does weddings but I wasn't thrilled. Even when the groom made a really standard song request, she didn't play it. I think she played it too safe with family-friendly songs even though we wanted the young crowd dancing the whole time. I thought that was clear but I (the bride) kept having to ask her to jump it up a few decades.

For my wedding I hired Peter Hallisey from Sound Choice Events. He was always available to speak to me during the planning process. The week before the wedding we met to discuss music choices and timing of the event. He was determined to make my wedding night a night I would never forget...and he succeeded! He knew how to read the crowd and when to switch up the tempo. I will continue to hire Peter for any event I plan!
I also used sound choice events for a photo booth which was a huge hit with my guests. I would really recommend spending the extra money on it for your guest book.

Peter was a great DJ - I was looking for someone low key (ie: not yelling at everyone all night/his voice in the background, except when announcing toasts, dances, etc.). He was never obnoxious and played our style of music...
I got the feeling he didn't read emails/listen to vm very carefully, but it all worked out in the end.
I do recommend sound choice if your not into games, gimics, etc.

Considering the DJ was located near Boston and we were planning a wedding in VT, all while living in CT… John was very accommodating. He came to CT to walk us through the process and to better understand our event. During the event weekend we had two full days of activities in various locations, including last minute changes due to weather. John never missed a BEAT, he was set up and ready to go, and always kept the party moving. :)

He played the part of the master of ceremony. He was dressed proffesionally and had a great attitude.
