Spinners (Jay and DJ Lou) were a highlight of our wedding. Jay was so great in the information and pricing phase, so helpful and kind, and recommended DJ Lou to us. We were so pleased when we first chatted with DJ Lou, he was endearing, informative, helpful, and overall just a great guy. Even when Spinners paperwork said just 20 must play songs, and I told him I took my super long list down to 30 sorry about that - he said oh just send them all! And the night of our wedding nearly 90% of the songs he played was from my list of favorites in the most PERFECT quick mix style and order, flowing from one song to another.
We had a DJ for our reception, added an extra hour, added the ceremony, the magic mirror, and the Sax and Drums for our reception. It was EPIC. The drummer was so nice and asked my groom and I to drum for a bit, what a time. And the Sax was hysterical, got in the middle of the dance floor and had the best time.
I've been to A LOT of weddings, and I am so pleased to say the best wedding DJ I've seen was at my own wedding. When people bring up the wedding to my husband and I, they often say the same few things, they've never seen the dance floor so packed, the DJ was amazing, and the Sax & Drummer were so so cool.
The only negatives I have are, I asked DJ Lou for 2 announcements to be made that night and neither were, and maybe it was because it was loud for him to hear me. And how many times Spinners emailed me asking to write a review just days after my wedding. Within a mont of my wedding I swear they emailed me 6 times, I was on my honeymoon and back at work, it was a bit much.
But Spinners and DJ Lou were one of the best bookings we made and we're so incredibly happy with them.
DJ Lou kept the party going at our wedding last weekend at Sixty Pine Street! Lots of our guests complimented his set list afterwards. He was very easy to work with ahead of time too, and even directed us to some options for processional music when we were totally clueless about what we might want! Thanks Lou!
We wanted a DJ that would keep the vibes high energy from start to finish and DJ Lou more than delivered! The music was incredible - he played the perfect mix of songs from every era based on our suggestions while also playing our "must haves." Lou was so much fun and such a talented DJ - the dance floor was FULL from the minute we entered the reception until the very end. Highly recommend!
DJ Lou played for us at our wedding at The View at the Battery in NYC last weekend and he completely killed it! He was very attentive, played awesome dance music that our crowd loved, and even had the coolest/most professional attire! He kept our guests on the dance floor all night and people are still sending us messages praising his work and asking where we found him. He was 10/10! We highly recommend him for your upcoming wedding.
If I could give DJ Lou 20 stars, I would. He elevated our wedding immensely — from the ceremony through the reception, we had guests who rarely step foot on the dance floor stay until the very last song at ours. It was really something to see. We cannot thank DJ Lou enough for keeping the party going all night long, matching our guests’ energy until the end. He also introduced us to the percussionist Justin — several guests are still raving about how well Justin and Lou played alongside each other. If you’re looking for an absolute standout DJ and live musician, look no further than these two. We wish we had 4 more hours to party with them. Thank you so very much for the best of memories!
DJ Lou Smith made our wedding the best party ever! We gave him a list of a few songs to play and from there he was on fire and had our guests dancing non stop the whole night. His MCing was superb and the added live music touch of his percussionist and saxophone player duo who played along to the music was just simply amazing. DJ Lou smith not only made our wedding so much fun, but he was great from the start being so easy to work with, professional and accommodating. I couldn’t recommend DJ Lou Smith more for a guaranteed fun and fabulous dance party!
Working with Jay, he set us up with The Beverlee’s and we couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. Molly and her bandmates/DJ were a HUGE hit as all our guests raved about them during and the days after the reception. They learned our first dance song and nailed it. Everyone was on the dance floor from the first song to the last. Annie and I highly recommend them - you will not be disappointed!!
Professional, Organized, Kind, and SO MUCH FUN! Our DJ Lou was great to work with. He took our requests and put together a spectacular set for our wedding cocktail hour and reception. People were dancing even before we’d finished dinner! Couldn’t recommend Spinners enough.
Jay and Nicole were excellent! Their versatility is like no other band/DJ I’ve ever seen at a wedding. We had acoustic during the cocktail hour and first dances and then switched to DJ! They were so professional and wonderful to work with! You will not be disappointed!
Great and very talented musicians with an amazing vocals and Arrangements. I love listening to them. They are phenomenal for weddings and social events.
Jay Della Valle and his partner Nicole have so many rave reviews for their acoustic music as Owls & Lions, and DJ work as Spinners Entertainment, that they hardly need one more, but we enjoyed them so much, we couldn’t not post our biggest thanks. From the moment they appeared at our daughter’s wedding (with Nicole immediately reminding everyone of the best of Daisy Jones), they were gracious, cheerful, accommodating, patient, and brilliant musicians. It is no mistake that everyone loves these guys, and we enjoyed their work so much, we’re trying to come up with another event idea to have them back. We could go on and on, but since so many others have given this team five stars, we’ll simply say we can’t imagine having found anyone anywhere who would have been a better fit for our day. Just the best!
We LOVED working with Spinners Entertainment! Lou was our DJ and he was so cool and fun to work with. He played all of our favorite songs throughout the night, and he was kind enough to show up early and set up a mic and speaker system for our officiant. We would definitely work with him again. :)
If I could give Spinners Entertainment 5 stars again and again and again. Nicco was our DJ at our wedding in Olde Mill Inn and he did an amazing job. The night wasn't even over and so many people were paying compliments to me about him and even after the wedding people said that this was the best DJ they have seen in years. He played music that kept everyone dancing and listened to our requests. During soundcheck he played baby shark for my nephew and he loved that! Nicco was a truly awesome guy and we were so lucky to have him on our wedding day.
We hired Owls & Lions through Spinners Entertainment. We had a duo (Jay and Nicole) for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and two more band members joined them for the reception. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH AMAZING THINGS ABOUT OWLS AND LIONS. They were easily the most complimented portion of our wedding. They are so incredibly talented, they perform a large variety of music, and they were relatively affordable for live music and all of the talent they brought! They were so great to work with, incredibly attentive and seriously was one of the highlights of my wedding. They even learned our first dance song and were able to sing it live for us! Something really special about them was they are a band/DJ combo. So when they’re not singing live, Jay, one of the singers, is the DJ, while the instrumentalists play along with the music! I seriously encourage everybody to go check out their videos, it is amazing to watch them perform and it was a gift to have them as our band.
We were so lucky to have Jay DJ our wedding and be part of our special day! Jay went above and beyond our expectations and kept the party going all night long. The set he played reached the interest of every guest and made my husband and I feel like rockstars. There wasn’t a moment where people weren’t on the dance floor. Jay, thank you beyond words for being part of our day and making it a night we will never forget!
I have nothing but amazing things to say about Jay and Spinners Entertainment! Getting married is a beautiful but extremely stressful process, however working with Jay made things not only easy but wonderful! Jay was recommended by my friend who got married and after having Jay at my own wedding I would undoubtedly recommend him to anyone! From our first conversation and he was kind, accommodating, down to earth and extremely knowledgeable. Owls and Lions offers a truly unique and special wedding entertainment experience that I feel so grateful to have had on my Wedding day! The music selection was great, the acoustics and volume were perfect, and Jay got everyone on their feet. We all had a blast! Thank you Jay you rock!
We were lucky enough to have Jay DJ and play guitar at our wedding, and we cannot stress enough what a wonderful decision this was! Not only did he keep the energy moving through the entire event, but he also managed to work in some requests that we had just mentioned as asides. (We had a lot of Broadway music fans at our event, but knew Broadway music didn’t really fit at a wedding. Somehow, he worked Broadway music throughout the even in ways that didn’t dull the energy and really elevated the whole experience!!) The ceremony was wonderful, and the reception never stopped moving — the dance floor was packed ALL NIGHT, which was exactly what we wanted. We also rented a photo booth, which was a fun experience for everyone, and they managed to exactly match the print outs from the booth to our wedding invitations!! We would HIGHLY recommend Spinners Entertainment; we cannot stress enough what an amazing job Jay and his team did.
Absolutely thrilled we found Jay, Nicole and Kevin with Owls and Lions! They are the absolute best Indy Folk Trio in the Tri-state!!!! Not only did they play, sing, jam out at our wedding, they completely entertained our guest and we all had a blast!
Owls & Lions were amazing! From ceremony to cocktail hour to reception they nailed every part of our wedding and we could not have been happier. They are truly such a talented band. The ceremony and cocktail hour music was beautiful. The reception music was so fun and all of our guests had a blast dancing. Our family and friends all complimented us on our wedding music. Jay was so great to work with from the wedding planning to the actual day. We highly recommend Owls & Lions for your wedding. They were the best!!
We discovered Owls and Lions by mistake at our venue tasting in 2019 and I am so glad we did! After hearing a sample there we attended a showcase in Morristown where we really got to enjoy Jay and Nicole perform in addition to a sax player and guitarist. After two postponements due to COVID, what started as Owls and Lions for the ceremony + cocktail hour and a DJ for the reception quickly morphed into Owls and Lions for ceremony + cocktail hour and the full band/DJ hybrid for the reception. All I can say is, no regrets! We LOVED having live music and our guests had a blast!
I knew we’d have some dedicated dancers in our crowd, but a good bit of observers too. A band was an excellent way to get the dancers up and dancing and allow the observers to sit back and enjoy the show. Jay was great with communication leading up to our event and the night of he was sure to check in with us periodically to make sure we were happy with the vibe or if there was anything they could do differently to ensure we were having the best time. My husband and I aren’t huge dancers, so we were happy to join in part of the time, observe some of the time and mingle with guests at others.
Owls and Lions performed beautiful acoustic music with guitar and violin during the ceremony + cocktail hour and guests said their energy really added to the good vibes of the night. By the end of the reception so many guests were out on the dance floor singing and enjoying themselves. The band played Stand By Me right at the end of the night and all our guests circled up together and sang at the top of their lungs, definitely a moment we will always remember!
We hired Jay and Nicole to play at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and Jay DJ'd our reception. I would highly recommend this duo and live music / DJ hybrid to anyone who is looking to have live music at their wedding at an affordable price. The music quality was really great and they are both such talented musicians. Our wedding guests were especially impressed with the live music they played during the cocktail hour. Jay was also so helpful during the planning process and was available to answer all of our questions and customize the music to what we wanted.
Jay & Nicole performed as Owls & Lions for my wedding ceremony [Nicole’s violin was beautiful in their instrumental rendition of Home] & cocktail hour [plenty of bouncy songs, including at least one original]. Jay switched over to the DJ booth for the reception. Being able to have both a DJ *and* a band was exactly what we needed; they were flawless!
Spinners was responsive when communicating over email & phone. My now-husband and I are the first in our friend group to get married, so we weren’t super sure about how many music selections were needed or what the most applicable kind would be (beat/tempo-wise). Jay walked us through everything over the phone, and made sure we were happy with all the choices so that our day went off perfectly!
Amazing!!! I had them perform at my wedding. The entire night my guest were dancing and never left the dance floor. The best part about this, is the love music. I would recommend this company over and over again!!!
Jay and Owls & Lions were absolutely amazing to work with. We had Owl & Lions play our ceremony and cocktail hour and I was in awe of how amazing they sounded - somehow even better than their videos. Jay was the DJ for our reception and he was PERFECT. He listened to our requests and played a great mix of genres that kept people dancing all night long. I had MULTIPLE people come up to me and tell me what great music we had. I remember being on the dance floor and hearing someone say they had never heard a DJ play so many good songs in a row! I'm incredibly grateful for how flexible Jay was with all the re-scheduling madness during COVID-19 but in the end it was truly the perfect day.
Jay and the Owl and Lions team were amazing! We did a live music/DJ combo for our wedding in May. We received so many compliments from our guests and everybody had a great time. The dance floor was packed all night! Jay was referred to us by a friend and now we will be sure to refer them to others as well! Planning was super easy and all expectations were met. Definitely recommend 100%!
t was so lovely to work with Jay. Despite being very busy, which I would say is a great sign, he made time for us and accommodated all of our requests. He was happy and present during our wedding and we couldn’t have asked for a better dj/mc. We also hired Owls and Lions which I heard from my guests were great! I unfortunately was too busy running around to enjoy the live music during my cocktail hour.
Jay and his company was definitely a one stop shop for us! He provided live music, dj, mc, and we even got our photo booth from him. Highly recommend! :)
Wedding DJ Review
From the moment we started working with Jay until the day of our wedding, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. During our first call with him, we could tell how passionate he was about music, his band, and making weddings unforgettable.
Jay is responsive, easy to work with, and he truly cares about the couple and their special day. We worked with him throughout the pandemic (postponing our wedding multiple times) and he did everything he could to put us at ease and accommodate our date changes.
We did a mix of band and DJ and they were AMAZING. Coming from someone who has been to too many weddings, I truly believe the music is the most important part and it makes such an impact on whether guests have a good time or not. Owls and Lions played during our cocktail hour and the first half of our reception and then Jay switched it up to DJ mode for the rest of the night- this was the perfect combination! He also made sure to get everyone on the dance floor at one point for a group photo which was awesome (and the photo came out great)!
Owls and Lions was hands down the best choice we made when it comes to our wedding. So many of our guests commented during and after our wedding about how talented the band was and how much fun they had (thanks to the great music)!
As the bride, I am so happy to reflect on our wedding day knowing that all of our guests had a great time and thankful that I was able to dance the night away (I think I only left the dance floor once to eat)!
Thank you Jay and Owls and Lions for making our wedding INCREDIBLE- it would not have been the same without your talent.
Jay and Spinners Entertainment are truly top-notch and made the music portion of our May ‘21 wedding planning so easy. The Honey Badgers provided amazing live music during our ceremony and cocktail hour. DJ Monopoli kept the dance floor packed all night and did a fantastic job playing songs that our guests of all ages loved. Everyone that we dealt with were true professionals and a pleasure to work with. We continue to get compliments on the entertainment from our wedding guests.
Jay DJ'ed my wedding this past June 2021 and I can honestly say I am STILL singing! I still have guests saying how amazing the playlist was all thanks to Jay. He was incredible with keeping the party going and made sure everyone was having a good time. The music selection was EXACTLY what we wanted and I still don't have a voice from belting out all my favorite songs! He sang acoustically and played the guitar during my cocktail hour, which was a huge hit with my guests. I cannot say enough good things about him and wish he could DJ every event in my life! Thank you so much Jay you crushed it! And thank you so much for working with me during all my covid postponements, you helped make our replanning so much easier!
Jay was amazing! We had Owl & Lions perform during our ceremony and cocktail hour and then Jay took over as MC/DJ for the night. The guests loved it all! Everyone came up to us saying how much they loved the Owls & Lions set. They gave the perfect vibe for a great start to the evening. Check out their songs and social media and youtube. Jay was also a phenomenal DJ. He made sure everyone was dancing the whole night and had a great time!
When the pandemic hit, we had to reschedule our 2020 wedding for 2021. Jay was the first person to reach out to make sure we were doing fine and that he was ready to go for the new date. Jay was also very responsive and put up with all of my random last minute emails (including my request the night before the wedding for Owls & Lions to play an extra song during our ceremony).
All in all, he exceeded all of our expectations, as both a performer and a professional. We highly recommend if you are looking for wedding entertainment!!
Due to covid we had switched our wedding date three times and last minute decided to switch to a band since our venue wasn’t allowing dancing. Jay was amazing, understanding, flexible, supportive and created the best night of my life. We switched from DJ to his band Owls and Lions with a percussionist. Wow, every guest commented on how great they sounded. “Jay has the best voice.” “The girl singer is amazing.” They read the crowd and played songs to fit the mood. They really made the wedding what it was, fun and exciting. So many guests walked out with their business flyer. I wish I could get married again just so I can hire Owls and Lions again! Don’t hesitate, BOOK THEM!!!
Whenever my wife and I now listen to Owls and Lions we are immediately brought back to our wedding day. She and I feel so blessed to have had Nicole and Jay play for our wedding. These two are so talented, passionate, and generous with their music. Our guests raved about them and they are looking for any excuse to have an event to invite them back. We will forever associate Owls and Lions with our wedding!
We used Spinners Entertainment for our wedding on March 20, 2021. We were not disappointed! Our MC Anthony was AMAZING! He played all different types of music and checked in with us throughout the night to make sure everything was going well! We felt they were extremely reasonably priced. We would recommend using this company to anyone!
Having Jay play at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made! Planning a wedding during a pandemic is not easy but Jay was so comforting, professional, responsive and flexible throughout the entire process! He took the time to truly get to know us to best prepare for our special day. The day of the wedding, Jay was such a pleasure to work with, so talented and kept the night moving and enjoyable for everyone! Jay helped to seamlessly drive the day with his music selections and kept it intimate like we requested and we trusted his every move. We have already received a ton of compliments and people inquiring for his information to book for future events! We HIGHLY recommend choosing Jay (Owls and Lions) for your wedding.
Let’s me just say owl & lions were absolutely amazing! They were beyond responsive, flexible and creative. Every guest at my wedding LOVED them singing while guests arrived, singing the recessional, professional, cocktail hour and slow dance songs during the wedding. They have such an unique spunk and a different spin of just a normal DJ. They even were able to replicate my wedding invite to be used as the photo booth print outs which I could not be any happier with! I would 100% recommend them time and time again. The guests enclosing myself still are talking about how amazing they were!
We absolutely LOVED Owls & Lions. Jay and Nicole are both amazing musicians and had the perfect vibe together - they really completed our little micro wedding!! Very cool, laid back and FUN!! I’ll book these guys again and again if I have the chance to!
I cannot say enough great things about Owls & Lions, they brought our wedding to life! They are such talented musicians and they had all my guests raving about how good they are. On top of their talent they also were able to go with the flow of not having a dance floor due to the pandemic. At first I thought not having a dance floor at my wedding would be awkward and they made it anything but that. I believe my guests fell in love with this band and highly recommend them!
What an incredible experience I had with Jay from Spinners Entertainment and the rest of Owl and Lions. When I spoke with Jay I knew this was the band I was going to hire. When you plan a wedding it can be stressful to begin with but Jay makes it that much less stressful from the get go. He was in constant communication leading up the wedding and the day of are a testament to his professionalism. What I can say is that the music will not disappoint either. From the ceremony all the way through the evening Owls and Lions has everyone on their feet. They played everything perfect and made the evening unforgettable. Almost 9 months post wedding everyone still talks about the band. That says something about them. I love these guys and continue to try to find ways to get them to perform again.
We booked Owls & Lions for our wedding and we were not disappointed! They are the best of both worlds-- a band for the ceremony/cocktail hour, playing mostly indie folk rock, and a DJ for the reception, playing dance music to get people moving. Jay, Nicole and Chris are fantastic musicians/singers/DJs, very professional and extremely easy to work with. They could really read a room and seemed to know exactly the right song to play at the right time to keep the party going. If you're looking for something a little different for your wedding music experience, look no further!
Jay was great! He really understood and catered to our requests for music style/genre and he made an awesome playlist. Our guests had a blast! I would highly recommend!
My (now) husband and I are SO happy we chose Spinners for our wedding. Our DJ was Ollie was he was absolutely fantastic. We like all different genres of music and wanted our guests up and dancing most of the night, so we left almost all of the music up to Ollie's discretion for the reception...and we are so glad we did because he picked the best songs to play. He knew exactly how to read the crowd and our dance floor was filled the entire night. The uplighting was also a great touch that I would recommend for any venue!
I can’t thank Spinners Entertainment enough for the amazing job that they did for our wedding September 8, 2019. From my very first phone call with Jay I knew that we would end up booking with them. His enthusiasm and passion for what he does is incredible. He was so easy and fun to speak with and share ideas with. Instantly he got the vibe that we wanted for our wedding and was able to easily guide us in our selection of entertainment. We loved that they have so many entertainment options to chose from!
Throughout our entire wedding day they evolved to suit the vibe of each setting. Jay and Nicole played guitar and violin out on the beach prior to and during our ceremony. Our friends and family said it was so cool to be sitting out on the beach listening to them play! Walking down the isle to the instrumentals of one of my favorite songs was a dream come true and they played it so well!
For cocktail hour we had their band Owls & Lions perform. They were absolutely amazing! If you are looking for a wedding band that will be different from all the rest, book them! So many people came up and asked us during cocktail who they were and where we found them! They definitely set the tone for a fun night!
Jay was the perfect MC and kept things flowing seamlessly. We kept Kevin the drummer from Owls & Lions all night so we had a hybrid DJ setup. In our opinion it was so much better than just having a DJ or just having a band. Him and Jay kept people on the dance floor all night.
So many people have called to tell us that it was the best wedding that they have ever been to and I attribute much of that to Jay, Nicole and Kevin. I had never met them in person before the wedding because we live a good distance away. When we finally got to meet on our wedding day they truly already felt like friends. We are looking forward to going and seeing Owls & Lions perform as soon as we can!
Thank you thank you thank you!!
Love,
Lauren & Matt
JAY DELLA VALLE IS A GOD. We had a nontraditional ceremony in which our bridal party walked down the aisle to a song from the "Dumb and Dumber" soundtrack and I, the bride, marched out to "Another One Bites the Dust." All that, in addition to my nagging mother's annoying song requests for our reception, was made an amazing reality thanks to Jay and the crew at Spinners Entertainment. He even made my in-laws smile, which I haven't been able to do in the almost seven years I've been with their son. (He also made sure to honor our requests for no speeches and no line dances, even when irritating guests requested them.)
Jay from Spinners Entertainment is the BEST!! From start to finish it was the easiest experience, Jay was always there for us! We had the best time at our wedding and danced the night away! THANK YOU SO MUCH JAY!
We had Spinners Entertainment/Owls and Lions with the full band/DJ, magic mirror package for our wedding last month and could not have been happier with the experience. THEY'RE THE BEST!
I have worked with Jay, Kevin and Nicole on a regular basis since 2010 when I first became and event planner and knew from the very first time I saw them play at a client's wedding that I would need them at mine. They can get a party started like no other band/DJ I have ever seen and they did just that at my wedding last month.
Not only did Jay give our guests a night to remember, but he was also there to help us with ideas throughout the entire planning process whether it was logistics and timing or music selection, Jay was always available to give us advice. They made every detail of our event special and even let my Uncle sing our processional song while Jay played the guitar along with him. They were open to any crazy idea we had and made it even better than we could have imagined. We truly cannot thank them enough for all they did to make our big day the best it could have been!
Where do I even start with jay, and The owls and lions. So my husband and I really wanted a band but had to stay within our budget. That’s where we found Spinners Entertainment. First of all, they are worth SO MUCH MORE than what the rates are. Which means your getting more for what you pay for 100% hands down. He gave us the amazing option of accommodating us with his amazing band Owls and Lions and also his exceptional Dj’ing skills. I could not have gotten enough compliments about Owls and Lions. I had an overwhelming amount of text messages about how great they were. They played for my ceremony, (the entire thing) while people were sitting and waiting and during when the bridal party came out to a song that meant a lot to us. They did exactly what I envisioned and it was PERFECT. The cocktail hour was even better. The party before the party is what it felt like because of the great positive and uppity vibes that they just were responsible for, had filled the room. I had them for an hour of the reception and regret not having them longer. They really got the party started. Not only do they get the party started right, they get involved in the actual party! It was amazing. I would recommend owls and lions to ANYONE for ANY event not just a wedding. Simply amazing. Now for jay. The last 3 hours of our reception was all JAY Della Valle. And let me just say this guy is indescribably AMAZING at what he does. The entire time Jay was calm, cool collected. He was confident in what he was doing. He had my party going NUTS. I have never seen an entire dance floor filled and all the seats empty at a wedding. It was EXHILARATING. He fed off of our crowd and our party and everything he played was perfect. Like I said everyone wanted to know who our DJ was because it was the best most fun wedding they have been at and I owe a lot of it to Jay and Spinners Entertainment. I can’t thank you enough jay and your crew for making my day become over and beyond anything We ever expected. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS !
Nick and Drea MATAYAAAA :)
Jay was the heartbeat of our wedding. He was an MC, musician, and event helped keep the wedding moving along on track. We don't know what we would have done with out him.
Jay and Kevin are absolutely phenomenal. We took a shot with Spinners despite never seeing them before because my husband and I just had to have their band, Owls and Lions, perform at our ceremony and cocktail hour. We could not be more pleased that we did! My husband and I have a totally random, wide range of musical tastes and Jay incorporated all of our requests into the most fun night of music! Our guests were up and dancing the entire evening. We also had had a somewhat strange request for the dinner music, but Spinners delivered. Additionally, Jay totally took charge in getting certain aspects of our reception under control, and we are so grateful for his take-charge personality. These guys are the perfect balance of professional and fun. I can’t stop thinking about what a fun time everyone had, especially dancing and keeping the party going. I would very highly recommend Spinners to anyone for any event!
Spinners Entertainment made our wedding day absolutely amazing! So many of our guests complimented the acoustic music of Owls & Lions at our ceremony and cocktail hour. It was the perfect compliment to Jay's DJ'ing and Kevin's percussion skills during our reception. They kept our guests dancing and partying the entire time. Jay really knows how to control the room! Aside from the amazing music, the communication we had before the wedding made us super comfortable that day. BOOK SPINNERS ENTERTAINMENT. THEY ARE THE BEST!
Spinner's Entertainment did an amazing job at our wedding and we could not be happier. We first met with Jay at my friends wedding. We loved how he played music that she specificially wanted to fit the theme of her wedding and how lovely it was that they had live music during her ceremony. We also had a blast with the Magic Mirror at their wedding and we knew that was a must-have for ours! Jay was so attentive to our wants and wishes for our wedding, but he also was honest with us if he thought something would not work. He helped us figure out the best songs for certain parts of our wedding and made it so easy to work with him. Our wedding was so much fun thanks to him! He paid attention to the songs we requested and the style of music we enjoyed and had our dance floor filled all night long. Our guests raved about the Magic Mirror and spent a lot of their night between the dance floor and the Magic Mirror. We loved that we were able to get digital downloads of all the pictures taken at the photobooth! They were such a laugh to look at when we received them! Jay had played guitar acoustically during our ceremony as well, and it was truly magical. It gave such a beautiful vibe to our wedding and we are so happy that we had chosen to have him play. He also caught us off guard with playing "Grow Old With You" by Adam Sandler towards the end of our wedding and had our guest surround us. My husband and I have a love for Adam Sandler movies, and an Adam Sandler movie was our first date. No one requested the song and when I asked him what made him play that song, he said he thought we would enjoy a little corny love song. He was 100% right. It made me so incredibly happy! We loved working with Spinner's Entertainment and we would recommend them all the time! They have a little bit of everything for everyone and they will make your night, a night to remember!
My husband and I got married two months ago, and I am still absolutely BLOWN AWAY by how awesome these guys are. I was so nervous about music at the wedding because I have been to weddings before where the music wasn't great and no one danced. I wanted a party, I wanted a full dance floor, and I sure got it. Spinners Entertainment/Owns & Lions was the best decision I made while wedding planning, hands down. Jay, Nicole & Kevin showed up on time, played live music as guests were arriving and during the ceremony. They then played live music during cocktail hour, and Jay & Kevin transitioned to full DJ after dinner. They are SO talented.
Jay is a straight-up entertainer. During the DJ set, he was out on the dance floor singing to some of the hits and getting people going. I had friends texting me for days talking about how amazing they were. They completely exceeded my expectations. They played exactly what we wanted them to play plus they had fun with the DJ set and played the songs I never even knew I needed. On top of that, Kevin took some awesome videos of the party and fun boomerangs that they sent us after.
Do not hesitate to book them-- DO IT NOW! I doubt you'll be able to find anything else as awesome and for a totally reasonable price. Thank you guys so much!!
Wow! I cannot day enough about how fun our wedding was on 11.2.18!! All because of Jay Dela Valle & Spinners Entertainment! They kept the party going all night! Jay is such a professional; he knows all the songs to play to appeal to a range of ages. Just the right balance of party music and romantic slow songs. He asked my husband and I about what we definitely wanted to hear and worked with us through the entire process. He made sure to deliver everything we wanted :) Additionally, his energy is contagious! He announced all the entrances with such passion! The whole place was buzzing :) Even their lighting package is on point! Jay additionally is a member of the band OWLS AND LIONS. We asked them to play at our ceremony and cocktail hour. They walked up and down the aisle as guests were being seated for our ceremony. He played love songs with his band and got everyone in the wedding mood. OWLS AND LIONS also rocked out during our cocktail hour! He played fun music even some Irish music which we loved! It was the best of both worlds; having a band and a dj! If you are questioning whether to hire SPINNERS ENT for your wedding- question no more! They are the best in the business. Thank you so much Jay and OWLS AND LIONS for making our day so PERFECT.
Jay is amazing!!! He was recommended to me by a co-worked and I quickly had a call with him after hearing her rave reviews. After our first call (and listening to Owls and Lions) my husband and I immediately knew that he was the DJ for us.
We went to see Owls and Lions perform before our own wedding and when we talked to Jay, Nicole and Kevin it felt like talking to old friends.
We booked Owls and Lions for our ceremony and cocktail hour and then Jay and Kevin DJ'd for the reception. They kept the party going all night! Jay kept the flow perfect through first dances, father daughter, mother son dances and dinner. By the end of the night he was out on the dance floor with the party and had the crowd going crazy.
I cannot recommend Spinners Entertainment enough! This was honestly one of my favorite vendors that we booked throughout our entire planning process.
Jay and Owls and Lions were AMAZING. They provided the perfect blend of live acoustic music and DJ. He listened to and provided exactly what we wanted and our guests were up dancing the entire day. We also booked the magic mirror through Spinners and it was such a hit! Every one had such a great time and we cannot recommend them enough.
Owls and Lions was AMAZING! We loved the music they played, and all of our guests all week have been telling us how much they loved the music as well. They made our evening so special, and were a delight to work with throughout the entire process.
Jay and team were INCREDIBLE. From nailing our ceremony music timing through our unique blended wedding ceremony, to the awesome mix of Indian and American music that kept our guests dancing all night long, the live sax player, the magic mirror, and accommodating my last-minute request to serenade my now-husband at our reception (I literally texted Jay about it on the day of the wedding!) - they were perfect. You cannot go wrong with hiring these guys and in fact, you'll probably regret NOT hiring them! Thank you guys so much for everything!
Jay and Kevin were absolutely phenomenal to work with. They provided numerous options for us to select to make sure our wedding was perfect. The highlight of the night was definitely the Magic Mirror. It puts the standard photo booth to shame. All of our guests kept telling us they've never seen something like the Magic Mirror and how awesome it was. There was a line to use it the entire night!
As for the music, it was kicked off by Jay singing our first dance song. Our guests were extremely impressed with his voice and told us it was a great personal touch. After that, they kept the party going the entire night. The dance floor was always packed and everyone was having a blast.
Spinners Entertainment is definitely the way to go for your wedding or party. They're the absolute best.
BOOK THEM! Do not hesitate, they will seriously make your wedding day so perfect! Personally, we had Owls and Lions play during ceremony and cocktail hour and then Jay and Kevin DJ’ed for the reception. Nicole’s voice is downright magical. Jay reads the dance floor like a familiar book and knows exactly what the people want! If you want to watch the people you love enjoy every second of your wedding day, all you need is this trio of amazingness. Do it.
Spinners, specifically Jay, made our wedding absolutely awesome! We had acoustic guitar and singing as background music for the cocktail hour, and full DJ/MC service with lighting for the reception. The music was great and Jay really knows how to keep the energy flowing throughout the night. He knows when to slow down for meals or slow dances, and how to get people onto the floor. People who never get up to dance were on the floor by the second song! They know how to read the vibes of the room and adapt accordingly and will absolutely make any event memorable. Multiple guests commented that it was the best DJ they have seen at a wedding or elsewhere. The highlight of the night was probably the surprise at the end where Jay gathered all guests in a circle and sang "Cant Help Falling in Love" while playing ukulele. Can't recommend enough!
The only BEST DJ there is. Owls and lions are fantastic for ceremony and cocktail hour and then DJ for the reception. It’s an amazing combo. Everyone at my wedding can’t stop raving about how great Spinners was! Everything at my wedding was perfect start to finish. Jay knows how to control the crowd either pump them up or tone it down. You won’t be disappointed if you book Spinners, you’ll be ecstatic. It’s a mistake if you don’t hire these wonderful people.
