Standing Room Only DJ, Jay Kacik

and our families. He was very personable. He did a great job throughout the reception with music selection and was prepared when we had a sudden rainstorm during the ceremony (what else would you expect in Colorado?!). The uplighting he suggested was fantastic and added a lot to the atmosphere of the room. He also allowed us to make sudden music requests. Jay wasn't just our DJ; he was part of the family for a day. We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a DJ in the Colorado area. Thank you so much, Jay!

ally got to know "us" before the special day and was great at letting our guests know what to pay attention to/announcements/and just being the BEST MC!! I can't say enough about how much he contributed to our perfect day - you won't go wrong selecting Jay!

ommend Jay and Standing Room Only for your wedding!

nce. Furthermore, Jay's experience shown through by being able to answer any questions we had about other venders. He is a top class DJ and really cares for his clients. We would highly recommend Standing Room Only DJ for any event!

t first how much work it was to plan a wedding which meant we had no clue what questions to ask, how to bring our vision to life, what was possible, etc... But it turns out, we didnt need to have all the answers! Jay new exactly what to do, what questions to ask, the time frame we needed things by, for us to get our creativity side flowing! He even was proactive in contacting us for check-ins! As a busy bride and groom, anyone would forget to contact their vendor and get lost in all the planning, so for Jay to reach out to us, and keep detailed notes (at least thats what it seemed!) was a HUGE service for us! Something that makes this different is the fact that Jay used his experience to suggest options and possibilities. It was so insightful to have a professional really work with you on what works best, and what would flow better for the Big Day. He does it all! It made us feel like he really wanted the best for our wedding. VERY PERSONALIZED! You would be in the best of hands with Jay! Dont go looking anywhere else!

't hire a wedding planner for our wedding, but thanks to Jay, we didn't even really need one. He helped us plan out our whole night and it was amazing. Everyone had so much fun and he kept the dance floor full the entire time! There are too many great things to say about Jay that this review would go on forever, but seriously he is worth every penny! Hire Jay to be your DJ and you won't regret it!!! Thank you Jay! :)

and our wedding journey. Our day was everything we hoped for, and Jay executed exactly what we planned and envisioned. He is the best!

proached, and he helped us sort through many small details that we hadn't even considered. He even checked with some of our family members (with our permission) regarding their preferences for the reception. That was all before the party even started! At the reception, Jay kept our dance floor packed for the entire night. We didn't even have a big enough dance floor for all of our guests because of Jay's song selections. He also was incredibly helpful about keeping the reception organized and flowing - from the toasts to the first dances to the cake cutting. He made special cuts for our first dance, which was also incredibly helpful. We can't thank Jay enough for his guidance and assistance with throwing the wedding & reception that we always wanted.

e that helped us think about critical wedding transitions and items we hadn’t even considered. He is patient, kind and definitely very flexible as witnessed by how many last minute playlist adjustments I asked for…he just smiles and gets it done. Jay did the sound systems for our wedding ceremony and the entire wedding reception. He is so skilled in his trade that my husband and I were able to just take our cues from him! Not to mention that the playlist he put together kept our guests on the dance floor “all night long”. Jay has the perfect DJ voice with a very joyful presence. When I first started planning our wedding over a year ago, I was advised to line up a DJ first as this very critical person can either make or break a party. This review comes two months after our wedding and people are still talking about this extraordinary event! I/we totally give Jay Kacik and Standing Room Only credit for making our magical evening so extraordinary. We highly recommend Jay Kacik and Standing Room Only. He is truly the best and we are forever grateful that he was our DJ!

magined! Jay has a lot of experience and provided great planning advice in the months leading up to our wedding day. The day of our wedding we were thrilled with how well Jay worked with our photographer and day of coordinator to ensure our timeline stayed on track! And above all else he knows how to keep a dance party going :) Thanks Jay for playing a huge part in making our day incredibly unique and special!

f before meeting with him. We were also impressed at how often he reached out to check in and see how the planning process was going. It was nice to feel like we were a priority and that he wanted to help where he could. The wedding went without a hitch thanks to him! In addition to fulfilling his duties, he helped make sure other aspects went smoothly as well, like when the venue thought we were going to cut our cake privately in a side room and he checked in with us, saying “This is what they think is happening, but I’m pretty sure that’s not what we discussed.” Thank goodness! We told him he was correct, we were doing a normal cake cutting, and we were able to fix a potential problem before it even occurred! Jay played all the songs we asked for (and adhered to the do-not-play list) and managed to get people on the dance floor in spite of having to compete with a very beautiful day at a venue in the mountains. You can’t go wrong with DJ Jay!

hout the event. He was so organized and on top of everything! One thing that really stood out to me is that he asked us what the music meant to us-- was this supposed to be a dance party, or an opportunity for guests to mingle and have conversations. This meant so much to me because he tailored his services to fit our desires. We had such a classy, fun, and seamless event because he was involved. Hands down- We would recommend Jay to anyone.

erience. We could tell he was a professional from the second we met him, and that really shined through. The party was so good that no one took the first shuttle back to the hotel, and literally everyone was on the dance floor by the end of the night. We had so many guests come up to us, telling us they didn't want the night to end. That's the kind of experience Jay brings to the table. If you want a fun, kind, professional DJ at your wedding, go with Jay and Standing Room Only!

for our big day AND followed those questions with alternative suggestions. We did not feel pressured to make decisions one way or another and felt supported by him with the decisions we made that fit best with our preferences. He continuously offered to provide recommendations for other local vendors which was helpful for us. On our wedding day, we had thunder snow storms and though we had to switch some things around, the sound and music still went on without any issues. He continued to remind guests of the activities we had planned during the reception such as late night snacks, selfie station, etc without allowing the announcements to overtake our party atmosphere. Additionally, unbeknownst to me at the time our family had planned surprises throughout the ceremony; me for my mom, my groom for me, my mom for me. Jay communicated with all of us separately and together and implemented all the events flawlessly, while keeping the surprise for all of us. I think Jay would be a great recommendation for anyone! His professionalism led me to believe he would be a good fit for older, younger, quieter, or roudier crowds.

and introduce himself), and his music choice was PERFECT. We still talk all the time about how flawless his music selection was. The uplighting was beautiful as well! Jay is truly a class act and fantastic DJ!

He played Don't Stop Believing by Journey for the last dance of the night (unplanned by us) and everyone had glow sticks and created a big circle around my groom and I and we all swayed and sang the song and waved the glow sticks while my groom and I danced. It was a totally unplanned and the most magical moment. It shows just how great Jay got to know us and our crowd....Jay was so professional and kind to my groom and I. He helped us plan from the very moment we hired him and always gave us phone calls checking in on us and asking if he could help us with anything. I have never seen a vendor go out of their way like that to make phone calls to check in on us and help us plan other aspects of the wedding. When we sat down to help plan to flow and song choices for the day he was very organized and made sure we hit on every point that needed to be addressed. He also steered us away from making terrible decisions. During the day of the wedding he was always coming over to us and checking in and seeing if we needed anything and updating us to were we were in the day and what was going to happen next. We had just gotten done with our post ceremony photos and were in hiding to be announced into the reception area and he went and got us a tray full of our appetizers since we didn't get any. Once again, an example how Jay goes above and beyond just being a DJ. He is a true kind and fun friend. He kept everything in order and on time and made for the most memorable and fun night. If you hire Jay you are not just hiring a DJ, you are hiring a friend and planning partner.

tips and tricks.

ur, but also for the reception. We live in Atlanta and Jay was more than willing to accommodate our schedule to speak on the phone and go through our day song by song. We had several extra touches we wanted with certain music, and Jay would listen to our thoughts and then email us snippets of music to make sure that he understood what we wanted. We cannot say enough about his attention to detail and his sincere desire to make our day everything we wanted it to be. My biggest concern was everything flowing smoothly from one event and song to the next, without any dead space in between. Jay was excellent! As I said, he really is a master of ceremonies. He took care of everyone having a microphone when they needed to in order to have toasts, special songs played for certain people, and followed the vibe of the crowd to play songs that kept people on their feet all night. We also provided Jay a list of songs that we do not like and did not want played at our reception regardless if our guest requested them. Jay respected our wishes because we had a couple of guest tell us they requested a song that was on our “do not play list“. We appreciate Jay so much and could not be more thrilled.

like if we'd have someone give a blessing before dinner. It was so nice to have someone so knowledgeable and professional walk us through the details needed for our wedding. He took detailed notes on everything we found important for our ceremony and reception, and even gave us suggestions for mother/son or father/daughter dances. He edited songs to make them exactly what we wanted them to be. Our dance floor was full the entire night, and I can't even count how many compliments we received on the awesome dancing music and vibe of the night - all thanks to Jay! I didn't realize how important our DJ decision was until we met Jay, and I feel very lucky we were able to have him be a part of our wedding!

down a few months before our wedding. Most people would be mortified but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. As we scrambled to find a new venue, caters, cakes etc. I was now convinced I needed help and I reached out to Jay who I had gotten a quote from when we originally began the wedding planning process. Jay spent lots of time on the phone with me working through every single detail. He is professional, and well organized. He asks questions I would have never thought to even think about. I often didn’t know how to answer the questions because I had never even been to a wedding before my own, so I was lost. But Jay saved the day in every aspect. I can tell you that if you are looking for someone to make your day seamless and effortless please look into Jay Kacik at Standing Room Only.

ation we needed! He made our wedding day so special, relaxed and fun! I'm so thankful we picked Jay to be our DJ! I highly recommend using Jay! You won't be disappointed!

dings in comparison to other DJs, we were sold. We initially only hired him for the reception, but after our first chat with him about the logistics, we quickly realized that we needed him for more than just choosing songs. We did not have a wedding planner or coordinator for our wedding, but after speaking with Jay we felt like we had just hired one. He helped us create a schedule of events for the entire day, and thought of so many intricate details that we would never have thought of on our own. He even thought of things that we needed to check with our venue host regarding. After these initial talks, we decided to hire him for our ceremony as well, and couldn't have been happier. We had our ceremony at a semi-remote location at the top of a mountain and had absolutely no technical difficulties. Jay arrived early to set everything up and checked in regarding all of the logistics of the ceremony, who needed lapel microphones, where to place stationary microphones, etc., without intruding on our day. He made us feel very comfortable and ready for the show! When we arrived at our reception, he spoke with everyone outside the venue to coordinate our grand entrance, and gave a play by play of all of the multi-cultural traditions that we incorporated into our reception. When our buffet was served, he made sure we as the bride and groom were the first to get food, so that we didn't get lost and distracted and never eat, as many brides and grooms we spoke to have done. He coordinated with our photographer to accommodate the schedule of events to allow for us to take sunset photos, and kept our guests entertained while we were away. The party was a hit and our guests didn't leave the dance floor the entire night!

ked in with us on the big day with a quick run down of what was to come and read the crowd like the expert he is! He sent us the full songs of our big dances (first dance, mother son, father daughter, processional, recessional) to be sure it was exactly what we wanted. He was a breeze to work with and so many of our vendors had worked with him previously and had such great things to say about him. He even called both my mother and my husbands mother a week before the wedding to check in on them and be sure they were doing well! Outstanding! He truly went above and beyond. I cannot put into words how grateful we were to have him as our DJ. He is the best! I will absolutely recommend him for anyone needing a DJ!

the dance floor and knowing exactly what to play. We left this entirely up to him and the evening never lost its energy. He was subtle and nonintrusive during dinner but concise and charismatic when making an announcement. Ahead of time he very communicative and ensures he has every detail squared away before he shows up. Highly recommend, could not have asked for anything more perfect.

dding reception venue unexpectedly burned down the week before our wedding (seriously it's true), Jay was the first one to reach out to us to help, and to let us know that he'd be there to help make a new venue work. My wife and I scrambled and lucked out in finding a beautiful ballroom for our wedding reception. Jay seamlessly reconfigured our music and lighting - all at the drop of a hat. Everyone danced up a storm and had a blast! Thank you, Jay, for doing such an amazing job!!! You and our wedding coordinator were our rocks that week. We could not have imagined a more perfect wedding day.

process. He kept our night on track, and kept the guests on the dance floor! He has a crazy number of songs (I think in the thousands upon thousands) and can pretty much play any request you have. If you are looking for a DJ, you cannot go wrong with Standing Room Only, Jay Kacik!

s amazing and you will NOT regret hiring him for your wedding!!!

ver knew how important a good DJ was, and Jay went above and beyond to make it a perfect night!

him: The first time we sat down to start planning it was a snowy Denver day and his wife went out of her way to make us hot chocolate. So sweet!!! Our wedding was two days ago and I couldn't wait to write him a glowing review. The wedding was PERFECT, largely due to Jay and his hard work. He checked in several times, helped us to remember what we had to do and when, and exceeded every expectation of our music choices and the flow of the evening. Our dance floor was full the entire night and the guests LOVED the music. We felt incredibly supported throughout the planning process and once we hired Jay I had zero stress about anything because I knew he'd take care of everything we needed. He's an incredible guy and you can't go wrong with booking him!!

how we wanted our night to run, but also offered many good points that helped us plan our day. Jay was absolutely fantastic and a true professional!!!! The dance floor was kept full all night and he made the whole night feel easy and stress free, which was very important to us. We had the fairytale reception that we had dreamed of, in a large part thanks to Jay. You will not be disappointed by booking Jay for your wedding or any other event! I highly recommend his services to anyone and EVERYONE!

rch to find just the right thing for us that was current and upbeat but with a big band feel! He was also very considerate of other music requests and made us so excited about our ideas! When it came to the big day he was imperative to the timing of EVERYTHING! He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and to keep that all flowing seamlessly proves he’s amazing! He was great at keeping me informed of what was coming next! Another amazing plus, Jay isn’t one of those super cheesy DJ’s like you see in the movies but he does have a Hollywood worthy speaking voice! Jay also provided our lighting at the reception which totally transformed the room (and was beautiful)!!! I couldn’t have asked for more!

for and how we wanted our night to run. He did a better job than we ever could have dreamed! You will not be disappointed by booking Jay, and I highly recommend his services to anyone and everyone!

ed keep us on track. The reception was all about us and he made sure of it. His calm voice and positive attitude made everyone feel at ease. Jay thank you so much for all your work. We can not thank you enough for all you did.

ed us plan our day. He is a true professional and has his whole process dialed in — and on top of that he kept the dance floor full all night. We had the reception of our dreams and in a large part thanks to Jay! Would recommend him to any couple planning their wedding, or honestly anyone planning an event. Thanks Jay!

ery assured that our whole day would run smoothly and it definitely did! He is a must have vendor for your big day!

eyond anything we expected from a DJ. Throughout the planning process, Jay checked in with us to make sure we were all on the same page or to just offer a hand with anything (even not music related) that we might have needed help on. He will take as much or as little information as you provide him with and spin it (pun intended) into a perfect night for all. He is amazingly responsive via email and will answer questions within minutes if possible. His voice is surpassed only by Morgan Freeman. We could not recommend Jay more! You can search far and wide like we did or save yourself the time and book Jay now. You won't regret it!

t to do and when. The dance floor was packed the entire night and our daughter and new son-in-law were thrilled with everything. Jay puts his heart into his work and it shows. I would highly recommend his services to anyone.

nd experience were invaluable in helping us set up the timing and flow for the evening. He was willing to be flexible and accessible despite us living a thousand miles away from where we were getting married, and even worked secretly with the Father of the Bride to create a surprising and memorable father-daughter dance. We could not be happier with how everything turned out and would absolutely recommend his services! -Janice and Matt

kept the dance floor flowing and overall fun guy to be your MC. I highly recommend Jay. Thank you for a great memorable day!

changed our minds. Jay has so much experience that I did not have to worry about anything during the day of the wedding from ceremony to reception, he kept us to schedule and everything was seamless. I didn't even need to hire a decorator because Jay had additions like blue up lighting, projector (which play a slideshow of pictures), and "Paul & Alisha" projected onto dance floor, giving the perfect touches to the beautiful venue. We would recommend DJ Jay in a heartbeat to any of our friends!

s and editing some to fit the occasion). I highly recommend him to anyone looking to have a flawless and fun party!

with. Not only did Jay consistently check in to make sure the process was going smoothly, but he also help add ideas as he had done many weddings at our venue. I now have video evidence that the man knows his music, as the dance floor was never empty. Jay we cannot thank you enough and hope to be able to use your services at future events!!

for a better DJ!!

all night! He paid attention to what our guests liked and played music that got everyone, old and young, on the dance floor. I strongly suggest using Jay to DJ your wedding!

nted to the reception. Throughout the wedding day, he was so kind and professional and everything flowed smoothly. We were extremely grateful to have him as our DJ.

the sound system was perfect for our string quartet and singer during the ceremony, kept everyone on schedule between the ceremony and reception, and made sure the reception music and events went seamlessly. We had a 1920's inspired wedding, so very old fashioned and classic, and he made special playlists for the cocktail hour and during dinner to reflect this era. He also provided beautiful amber lighting when it was dark outside to illuminate our beautiful venue. I would suggest making sure you provide clear direction as to the playlist you would like during the dance to make sure you hear your favorite songs - we didn't emphasize these songs enough in our conversations leading up to the wedding. Jay really is a complete professional and I would highly recommend him for your special day!

hit all of the high points of the ceremony and reception, and often times, things we hadn't even thought of. He was responsive, friendly, and professional. Helped us choose some key songs for first dances, etc., but we entrusted him to read the crowd and make most of the music choices based on his experience, and he nailed it. He kept the party rolling the entire time at the reception by avoiding any lulls in activity, and the dance floor was packed for the duration of open dancing time. Many friends and family commented on his great music choices. He also has projector and screen available for rent which my fiance used to show an engagement video during the reception. Picking Jay was definitely one of the best decisions we made during wedding planning!

the dance floor rockin'! One of our top wishes for our wedding day was lots of dancing at the reception...and Jay aced it! The music was upbeat with a good mix and new and oldies. Our guests raved about the great music and how much fun they had dancing. I know we certainly had a blast! We would absolutely recommend Standing Room Only, Jay Kacik for your wedding DJ.

o our wedding!

ception (including many you probably hadn't thought of!) so that he can be the best MC possible. Whether on the phone, via email, or in person, I could always tell that Jay was on top of things and was there to help us. He also happens to be an excellent DJ -- he mixed great music at our reception, timed everything perfectly, and added extra touches like gathering all our guests together in a circle for the final dance. He just made everything seem effortless. Thank you for everything, Jay!!

endors to work with. He answered every email almost immediately. He worked with us every step of the way. He let us choose the music, but with his expertise he timed everything perfectly and kept the night flowing and fun. I can't tell you how happy I am that he was part of our wedding!! I can't say enough good things about him. He has my highest recommendation!

s along the way and gave great suggestions to make sure our wedding was perfect! And it was! After the wedding, both my husband and I knew that Jay had been the absolute best vendor we had chosen! I mean there are literally no words to describe how great at his job he is. He has great suggestions and all you have to do is enjoy the ride. If I could give him 10 stars out of 5 I would. Jay is awesome and you could not choose a better DJ!

demeanor. I cannot speak more highly of Jay and can honestly say our wedding went as perfectly as it did because Jay was our DJ. He even accommodated our crazy requests, no matter how out of the box. I would absolutely recommend Jay Kacik to future brides! Cheers!

crowd pleasers, and making announcements--he was perfect. He even did a little remix of a song for us to use as our first dance song. Everyone had a great time at the wedding--including us! Big thanks to the music for sure! It's now nearly 3 weeks later and people are still talking about how much fun they had.

r old grandma was busting a move. If you are looking for the perfect DJ, Jay is it!

s to help us make our decisions. We got very lucky in choosing Jay, who turned out to be one of the most organized, professional and helpful vendors that we worked with, in addition to simply being a pleasant person who seems to love what he does. The music was on point during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Jay kept the schedule on track at the reception (cake cutting/first dances/toasts/etc.) with subtle queues to me and husband. We asked him to chose the dance music for the reception and his selections were great. The guests at our 40 person wedding ranged in age from baby boomers to actual babies and Jay's music got everyone on the dance floor. It was a perfect day due in no small part to Jay's efforts. I can't recommend him highly enough!

ear of experience showed. At first we tried to choose all the songs, but Jay politely reminded us that what we like isn't necessarily what makes for good wedding music. We finally decided to completely trust Jay, and we were so glad we did! We had people at our wedding from age 5 to age 95, and Jay had every one of them out on the dance floor all night. He changed it up and everything flowed seamlessly. On top of that he worked with venue contacts, photographers, and other vendors to coordinate the entire flow of the day. His skills went way beyond music, and he helped keep everything on track. We gave Jay a tall order considering I love jam bands and classic rock, and my wife loves Motown and 90's rap! Jay somehow found a way to make all that and much more work! Having him own all of this was a huge weight off our minds. We just got to sit back and enjoy, and we did. If you are looking for someone to DJ your wedding you should trust in Jay!

er was perfect - it was audible, but quiet enough that people could still hear each other talk. My husband and I had a really hard time picking the songs for our first dance, cake cutting, etc. and Jay was great at helping. He even had shortened versions of the songs we chose, which was perfect, because neither my husband nor I are good dancers. In fact, Jay was so great that I voluntarily danced for quite a few songs (and I SWORE before the wedding that I would only dance as much as absolutely necessary). Jay also made sure our night stayed on track by sticking to the timeline we gave him. Not only that, but he truly improved the overall reception by thinking of things that neither my husband nor I had. The entire night ran smoothly, and it is largely due to Jay. I cannot recommend him enough.

music. He is thorough and did a lot of research as to what our daughter wanted for her special day. The wedding went off without a hitch!

nd him to anyone looking for an exceptional DJ. And the up-lighting is a must!

r via phone. He is super flexible and even took a special request for our first dance song and made it happen. He is professional and courteous in every interaction. His music selection is personalized to you; he created a lively dance floor all night long with a difficult set of genres that we preferred. He also is very aware of the crowd and knows when to intervene, whether that is with a song or with the next event in the wedding. Jay also did lighting for our wedding and this nice touch really brought out the elegance factor. Jay knows exactly what to do to make your event the best event possible and he did that for us. We had several family members and friends tell us that our wedding was the best they had ever been to - I think a lot of that credit goes to Jay's DJing services as he made the dance floor fun and filled all night long. Thank you Jay! You made our night incredibly fun and special. Brian & Michelle

all night long!! He was flexible with us and made the ceremony/ reception unforgettable. Top shelf guy!!

kily he was also available on our new date and didn't punish us for moving the date! We were so grateful for his kindness and understanding during a very stressful time. He also kept checking in as we got closer to the wedding and kept us on track with all the decisions we had to make like what our first dance song would be. He was even able to send us shorter versions of the songs so we could practice to the same version of the song that we'd be dancing to on the big day! He's so professional and on top of it. On the day of, he kept the party moving but followed our outline for the night, only varying from it after he'd clear it with us and always in the interest of keeping everyone having as much fun as possible. The equipment he brought was top notch and there weren't any problems at all. He did the sound for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and was able to do all three seamlessly even though they were in three different locations. He showed up early and set up in plenty of time which really helped with my nerves! I would recommend Jay to anyone who has any sort of event coming up that needs music with the added bonus of someone who will keep the whole night on track in terms of timing! He guided the party but in no way stole focus. Perfect balance!

rything ran smoothly. Everyone had a blast at the reception with a nice variety of music. He also provides an uplighting service at a great deal- super nice add on! Entertainment was so important to us because we wanted everyone to have a good time. With Jay, we didn't have to worry about a thing.

He was perfect. The DJ is such a key to a successful event. And Jay delivered all that we hoped for an more! He was professional, responsive, and a perfect partner!

ayed a great variety of music that kept the party going all night! I appreciated Jay's attention to things other than the music as well. I started feeling sick and he was on top of it getting one of my bridesmaids to help me out. He was a great DJ for our wedding and I highly recommend him!

y of he made sure everything flowed smoothly. We never realized that the DJ would keep track of our timeline for the night to make sure things were on schedule. Knowing that Jay was on top of things, we knew we wouldn't have anything to worry about. It was almost as if we had a wedding coordinator and DJ all in one. During the reception he did a great job of communicating with everyone that had a part to make sure they were ready and let them know exactly what to expect. He would also periodically check in with us to make sure that we were ready for the next step of the evening. His mix of music did a great job of keeping everyone dancing throughout the night. At the end nobody wanted to leave the dance floor! We would highly recommend him!
