We are beyond thrilled with our decision to choose Starshield from our venue’s preferred vendor list! From our very first phone call to the planning meeting, and all the way through to the wedding day, their team was incredibly responsive and always just a phone call or Google Meet away. The online planning platform was seamless—simple and completely stress-free.
Kevin and Nick were absolute rockstars! They flawlessly brought our vision to life, keeping the energy high and the vibe perfect throughout the entire event. The dance floor was packed all night long, and the tables were empty! Even nearly two weeks after the wedding, our guests can’t stop talking about how incredible the DJs were, with many saying they were the best wedding DJs they’ve ever experienced.
A special shout-out to Kevin and Nick for letting my "new" niece and I guest DJ—such a fun, personal touch! If you're looking for a DJ team that truly understands your vision and works tirelessly to bring it to life, you won’t be disappointed with Starshield. Kevin and Nick, you both are amazing, and we can’t thank you enough for making our wedding day unforgettable!

We had Kev Hart at our wedding on 10/19/24 and he was the definition of entertainment. We met with him originally and knew we needed him and his energy on our day. He was very helpful throughout the meetings and his enthusiasm never went away. Highly recommend him to anyone who wants that fun and energetic vibes for their wedding.

I had the absolute BEST experience with starshield. They were on top of their game the entire time. When booking, you get an initial meeting and they walk you through their very detailed website where you keep track of all of your music and details. I spoke with Kevin for most of the process. He was so so helpful, supportive, and receptive to all my questions and concerns. A few months out from the wedding, Kevin reached out again and just did a quick check in. I appreciated this because it helped to really refocus my brain after not having much to do for a year and a half.
When it comes to the actual wedding, I was BLOWN AWAY. The photobooth was a huge hit. The music was phenomenal. Rich, our MC, was so interactive and so on point. Nick was an amazing DJ. The dance floor was PACKED all night long. I danced the entire night, which is exactly what I wanted. The glow tubes were a blast, and I really think helped to get the party started.
I will be recommending this group to anyone and everyone because truly they made our wedding absolutely AMAZING.

Rich and Austin were truly exceptional. They exceeded all of our expectations and played a pivotal role in making our wedding the most memorable night of our lives. From the moment they arrived, their enthusiasm and professionalism were evident.
Their ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was incredible. They seamlessly transitioned between different genres of music, ensuring that everyone had a chance to enjoy their favorite songs. The dance floor was packed all night long, and the atmosphere was electric.
What truly set Rich and Austin apart was their genuine care and attention to detail. They took the time to get to know us and our guests, making everyone feel special and included. They were always available to answer questions, offer suggestions, and ensure that everything ran smoothly.
Throughout the entire wedding planning process, Rich and Austin were incredibly communicative and supportive. They frequently checked in with us to make sure that everything was on track and that we were happy with the plans. Even on the night of the wedding, they continued to check in with us to ensure that we were having a great time and that everything was running smoothly.
We cannot thank Rich and Austin enough for their outstanding performance. They are truly talented and dedicated professionals who made our wedding a night to remember. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional DJ and emcee duo.

We used Starshield Entertainment for our photobooth for our wedding at Linwood Country Club in August. The photobooth was such a hit with our guests and we are so happy we booked with Starshield. Our photobooth attendant was professional and fun and made sure everything went off without a hitch. We are so happy with how the photos turned out and that everyone was able to go home with a little token to remember our special day. I would 100% recommend booking with Starshield Entertainment.

We used Starshield as our wedding DJ & photo booth for our August 2024 wedding. Kevin and his team were FANTASTIC and kept the energy high all night. From the start of the booking/planning process up to the day of, all ran smoothly because of the team's communication and dedication to their couples. The photo booth was enjoyed by all of our guests and our keepsake guest book with a copy of each of our guest's photos will be cherished by us for years to come! We highly recommended using this great company if you are looking to have the best party ever!!

Starshield DJed and provided a Photo Booth for our wedding this past Saturday, we cannot say enough about how amazing they were! Kevin and Nick played our favorite songs, kept the night fun, and played a few surprises for us that we didn’t expect. It felt like they really knew us and a few times during the night I would look to someone near me excited and surprised by the song they played. We casually mentioned versions of songs that we liked in meetings, but didn’t add them to our must play and they played them anyway. It was amazing. Rosie was so sweet and I received a bunch of compliments about her and the photo booth. I cannot recommend them enough, they made our wedding so perfect. Every so often Kevin would give someone the mic to sing along to their favorite song, which was so funny. We even got behind the booth to “guest DJ,” that made for some amazing photos. We loved them so much, definitely hire them for an amazing event.

Book with Starshield for your wedding DJ, I promise you will love them! I cannot say enough amazing things about them. Kevin & Nick were the best! I loved Kevin's energy from the start, we live in central/north jersey so did not meet them in person until the day of, however they were only a google meeting call away if anything was ever needed! I loved the portal they offer to personalize your wedding playlist, you can even include the specific youtube/spotify links and they do the rest! The dancefloor was full all night and they were so easy and fun to work with! Highly recommend this team they were truly fantastic!

The BEST company to work with. Everything from start to finish was easy and went perfectly. Kevin and Nick are the best DJ/MC duo. They made us feel so comfortable and taken care of through the planning process and especially on the night of our wedding. All our guests were raving about them and we could not have had a better night. They incorporated our requests while also throwing in stuff we wouldn’t have thought to have. It meant so much not having to worry about anything in their hands that day. Can’t thank Starshield enough for making it a perfect night.

We cannot rave enough about Starshield!! From our first meeting with Kevin, we felt like we were in good hands. Any time I emailed with a question, he immediately responded with a link to zoom so we could chat. He checked in often and completely understood what we were trying to accomplish with our music. He and Rich were super accommodating when we wanted to add mash ups for our songs. They were also very honest with us about what we needed. As you can see, Kevin, Austin and crew kept EVERYBODY on the dance floor the whole night. Kevin was also very in tuned to what we wanted and changed songs flawlessly when he could feel it wasn't our vibe. Rich also messaged us the day after our wedding to check in and make sure everything was up to our standards. Book with Starshield, worth every penny.

Kevin and his crew were fantastic! They were extremely knowledgeable about our multi-cultural Indian/American wedding and were able to seamlessly blend two very different types of music to appeal to both sides of the crowd. Our photobooth was a crowd pleaser! The best part was how Kevin was able to adapt to any situation, he redirected our guests to the cake cutting using a conga line!

Starshield is THE BEST!! We booked them for our wedding DJ and photobooth on 4/7/23 at Renault Winery. When I say they brought the party, I mean it!! Kevin Hart & his team made our night so much FUN! The planning process was so seamless and the day ran so smoothly. We didn't worry about a thing. We loved partying with the Starsheild team! Every single one of our guests were on the dance floor the WHOLE night and if they weren't, they were at the photobooth. After the wedding, everyone couldn’t stop raving about how awesome the DJ was and what a great time they had - which is all we wanted from our wedding! I’m so glad we booked them! I cannot say enough amazing things about Starsheild. Book them for your next event NOW!!

Starshield gave us the most incredible wedding day. I could not have asked for anything better. They took the time to meet with us several times before the wedding so that everything was set up and ready to go. They truly care about your day and want you to have the best day ever. Our DJ was awesome and played the songs we wanted and some of their own music and the dance floor was rocking all night long. Kevin was our MC and he was amazing! If you have the chance, book him as your MC. He was funny, got everyone dancing and checked in with us multiple times throughout the night. He even led a table dash game so that we had photos with each table. He was featured in some of the photos with our guests too! Starshield is affordable and I would recommend them to anyone who is having a wedding. My guests also said they loved the DJ!

When we first began wedding planning, we knew we wanted two things. We promised each other that we would truly enjoy every moment and we wanted our guests to have just as much fun as us! Starshield helped bring our vision to life! One of my friends recommended Starshield after working several weddings that they provided DJ services for. I could not be any happier. The entire process was so easy! They are available to discuss concerns and questions through several platforms. If you have any questions, it is easy to schedule a virtual meeting with them. They provide an online dashboard that is so helpful for organizing your timeline, introductions, designs, and playlists! We had Rich as our DJ and he was just as helpful in-person! On our wedding night, he made sure to check in and guide us through the big moments. He truly wanted to make sure our day went as planned! Our guests are still talking about how great the music was. I remember leaving our reception and a friend sharing, “this was the best music, hands down.” Our dance floor was never empty! They matched our guests’ energy and we could not be any happier! We also used their photo booth services! We loved the props, instant pictures, and the add-on book!! We can’t get over the quality of the pictures and how much fun it was. If you are looking for a DJ to keep your guests on their feet, Starshield is it! THANK YOU!!

There is no where I could even begin to say how thankful I am that we booked starshield entertainment for our wedding. From day one, the entire staff team has made this process as easy, honest and FUN as possible. To start, there was zero pressure when booking. They were honest and open about what they could offer and how they could make our wedding dreams come true. They listened every step of the way throughout planning to ensure we were having fun, not stressed and that every detail was taken care of. You could tell how passionate they are about their work and how excited they were to be apart of our day. The day of, as the bride, I didn’t have to think once about our timeline, music choices or really anything because their team had it covered. The dance floor was everything I had dreamed my wedding would be. The photo booth was the best photo booth any of our guests had seen. Again, just absolute professionalism and FUN from start to finish. If I could give more than five stars I would. THANK YOU STARSHIELD!!!

My daughter Nicole and Darien were married on October 14, 2022. It was a beautiful day and an equally beautiful ceremony.
The reception was held on the river at the Camden Boat House. The venue was amazing, stunning imagery especially when the sun lowered into the western sky.
Equally amazing, perhaps more so, was the entertainment. I hired Starshield Entertainment to provide the DJ services for the reception. I knew they would be good as my stepdaughter Sara also hired them for her wedding. But for my daughter’s wedding they seemed to go the extra mile. Kevin and Sully put on one helluva show. Both gentlemen were professional, gracious, funny, and did not disappoint. The guests all commented on how much they enjoyed the night of music and festivities, even the old folks. The photo booth was a big hit.
I highly recommend Starshield Entertainment to any venue that wants to add some fun and flair to their events, weddings or otherwise. On a scale of one to five they are an absolute ten.

We were recommended by someone to use Starshield because Rich knew ASL and we would have a lot of guests who were deaf. The whole planning process was a breeze and he ensured us time and time again that they had us covered with all of our requests.
The day of the wedding, he was super outgoing and kept us in the loop with everything. Not only did he do what we had expected, he went above and beyond. At one point, we noticed him pulling up a chair and chatting with several deaf guests like he had known them for years. (Rich was our emcee and a dj was taking care of the music so there was no interruption). We had the package which included the photobooth and that was a hit as well!
There was ZERO complaints from us as he had the whole place dancing nonstop. He and his staff were entertaining, super nice and respectful, and did everything we asked for AND MORE. If we were ever to use DJ services again, there would be NO discussion as these are the people to hire.

Starshield Entertainment helped make our big day the best night of our lives. Rich hand selected the best team to work our wedding night. Ryan and Christian kept the party going all night, and even got down on the dance floor and partied with the kiddos. They helped us get everything we wanted out of our night, and even coordinated with other vendors to get every detail of our wedding just PERFECT. We will be referring our friends and family to SSE for any and every event. Thank you Ryan and Christian!!!!

I would not change a single moment of my interaction with Starshield Entertainment. From the moment we booked them, Rich made us feel like friends, not clients. They asked questions to learn about us and our taste, and made sure we felt comfortable the whole time. As a Type A planner, I LOVED the detailed questionnaire where I could outline my wants and share my ideas with them. Aside from curating the perfect music for a perfect day, Rich and his team provided excellent audio for our ceremony and cocktail hour. They are pros at reading the room and getting the party going, AND keeping it going! We could not have asked for anything better than Starshield Entertainment. I would book them for every party I ever plan again!!

When we got engaged I knew IMMEDIATELY the most important thing we needed was GOOD entertainment. Richard, Rosa, and Danny DELIVERED. You will not be disappointed! The photobooth was a hit, the dance floor was constantly going. We may need to throw ourselves an anniversary party just to hire them again!

If you're looking for a DJ for your wedding or any event, you've found it. We worked with Kevin during the planning stages, and had Rich and Ryan as our DJs. Our experience with this team was absolutely spectacular. Their planning platform was easy to use and actually helped us figure out the timing of events throughout the day. We could add the spotify playlists we created for each section of the wedding, and where we only had thoughts on general vibes we were able to simply add notes. During our meetings, they had the experience to guide us through areas we weren't sure about, but were also enthusiastic about incorporating the personal touches we had in mind. On the day, Rich was incredibly attentive to us and our guests. Their sound system was great (people commented on how the sound system during the ceremony made it feel like we were speaking right next to them, making it a very intimate experience even though we had 140 guests). During the reception, Rich went to each table and asked for requests. Both of them were super friendly, but also not obnoxious (so many wedding DJs make me cringe, but Ryan and Rich fit right in as if they were friends with all of us for years). These guys read the room perfectly, playing our chosen songs and sticking to our schedule, but also adding little touches both tasteful and fun that made the whole evening sing.

If you are looking for a DJ look no further! This company is amazing! They are professional, organized and most importantly they made our night so much fun. Kevin Hart is absolutely fantastic! He made sure our night ran so smoothly while keeping the party going. He went above and beyond his role as an MC and pretty much ran the show at our reception. We cannot say enough good things about Kevin and the rest of the company. You will not be disappointed if you book with them!

Kev with Starshield Entertainment was AWESOME. We had a Lao wedding with traditional music from Laos, so song titles and lyrics were in Lao, and many of the songs could only be obtained from YouTube or in MP3 format. Kevin beautifully blended our Lao-American cultures and made sure that everyone was included and had a blast. Our guests raved about him all weekend. He seriously felt like part of the family. When problems arose (as they do) he handled them with grace and professionalism. I would absolutely recommend!

Starshield managed the MC/DJ function for our ceremony/reception at our wedding at Resorts Casino Hotel in March 2022 and we can't recommend them enough! Rich and Kevin were extremely communicative with us from the beginning, and that was a huge relief since we didn't know much about event planning. They were hands-on and very influential... it was such a relief working with them! Also, the software platform they use made it very simple to program any additional specifics we wanted to include, but they were also always available for a call or email question. Also, it helped that they are experts in music and music genres, and Rich is a true Master of Ceremonies! On the day of our wedding they kept the momentum going from beginning to end and made sure everything went off without a hitch. As a bonus, we used their photo booth for added fun and everyone loved it! Top notch vendor, true pros... such a great time! Go with these guys!

Picking a DJ felt like such a hard decision! Unlike other vendors, you can’t just look at pictures online and judge from there. Luckily a friend personally recommended Starshield and I’m so glad they did! Our MC Kevin and DJ Danny both did such a great job! They were able to read the room, play music our guests actually wanted to dance to, and were overall such fun, positive vibes. The entire process was super easy, too; the online portal was super organized and easy to use. Kevin was amazing overall. I was definitely anxious about having all the music be “perfect.” Every meeting we had, he made us feel super at ease and everything felt very manageable/stress free. I also didn’t realize how important the MC was for leading the show - Kevin made sure we were on schedule (dances, cake cutting, etc.) and overall made everything go smoothly. Would 1000% recommend!!

We booked Starshield Entertainment for photobooth only as we decided to go with a live band rather than a DJ. We came in and were able to meet with Rich and try out the photobooth and see the quality of the photos, which was important to us. One aspect of the photobooth that we specifically sought out was the social media station with the ability for guests to text and email the photos to themselves, it was one of the reasons we chose Starshield over other photobooth companies. Unfortunately on the day of our wedding when my husband and I went to use the photobooth we discovered that they had not included the social media station. I do understand that sometimes mistakes happen and I appreciated their customer service in handling the mixup. I had an email from Rich by the time I was leaving my wedding with an apology and a heads up that they would be sending something in the mail. Rich wound up sending us a $50 Wawa gift card since the social media station was technically not any extra cost wise. Overall the quality of the photobooth pictures and all of the props were great! We also received all of the photobooth pictures digitally, which was important to us as well.

Starshield Entertainment was the absolute best! Not only were they excellent to plan with, they were wonderful at pivoting when we hit a hiccup during our reception. Kevin took such great care of everyone and our guests had nothing but great things to say! The photo booth was amazing and the photo book I was able to design on their site (super easy and wonderful to use) is stunning! I loved having it to look at immediately the next day. Cannot recommend them enough! They were stellar!

YOU GUYS WERE AMAZING!! the entire team from beginning to end were so professional, friendly, and amazing. We changed dates and venues due to covid and it was absolutely flawless. They gave us no troubles or issues & we’re just so kind. Tom and Ryan killed it at the wedding and we had so many compliments from guests of how great they were! They kept the party going and listened to everything I had to say, all the little details. Absolutely amazing. 10/10!!!

We booked DJ and photo booth services. The photo booth was perfect. We got to pick the backdrop and design the photo background for printing. DJ and MC kept the dance floor packed. They knew the pulse of the wedding and did everything to keep it perfect. We had a few zoom meetings prior and they pay attention to the details. Book them!

Highly recommend!

Starshield did a fantastic job both at our wedding and in the time leading up to it. We had to postpone due to COVID and Richard was very understanding and made it completely painless to reschedule. Their website is easy to use and the forms on it were simple to fill out. I really love that they talked us through the day a couple times over FaceTime and made some great suggestions of song choice for parts that we didn’t have any particular song in mind. On the day of our wedding our DJ Ryan was excellent as well, he was very prepared and set up very unobtrusively. The sound quality was great, we had a beach ceremony and you could hear the music and the actual ceremony itself perfectly. We went for a photo booth through them as well and we are so happy that we did. It was a huge hit among our guests and so much fun as well. Viktoria made sure it was easy for the guests and even my 90 year old grandma took some pics! The fact that the guests had pictures they could take home right away and we got copies later ourselves made the day even more special. Overall we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with a DJ and would recommend them to anyone getting married in the PA/NJ area.

Starshield Entertainment group was absolutely amazing for our wedding day. We had DJ Kevin and he just made our day awesome and catered to anything we wanted. I had to have a specific song for me to walk down the aisle to and he ensured to find the version I wanted and even bought it. To me, that meant the world to me because he was making sure our day would be as perfect as we imagined. He made the night SO much fun and ensured to pump up would guest and wedding party. I couldn’t be more happy and I think any NJ bride should book them as their entertainment.

If I have another big event, I will definitely be using them again.
Thank you for going above and beyond for us!!

THIS COMPANY IS AMAZING!!!! I cannot say enough good things about Richard and his team! We booked them for DJ entertainment and photo booth. We got dancing with the clouds, the indoor sparklers and a party favor package with fun props for guests to dance with. They were the best decision we made for our wedding! Rich was so understanding during the pandemic and made the date change a breeze. We knew we were in good hands but my goodness, the day of our wedding his services were top of the line! He made the ceremony and reception perfect and went above and beyond to make sure our guests were having fun and that we were getting everything we wanted. THANK YOU!!!

We did a package deal with Our photographer Beau that included DJ and photobooth as well where we got to meet and choose from 3 companies, and the moment we met Kevin we knew he was it! We didn’t care who else came except that he HAD to be our Emcee and it couldn’t have been a more perfect match! He was SO much fun to work with since day 1 and was SUCH a blast night of! We still have friends telling us he was the most fun DJ they’ve ever experienced!!! The photo booth they used was awesome and the girls attending were great! They even asked for a picture with their new ‘bestie’ (my husbands grandmother) who I think spent more time in the PB than anywhere else! 🤣🤣 We had our GOBO and uplighting through them as well and both came out absolutely beautiful and we even got our glass with the Gobo to keep after!

Rich & his team were a great choice! We didn't know much about them when booking but during our Zoom meeting (since we booked during the pandemic) he was great and high energy & made us feel at ease with trusting him with our wedding. Their platform is great for making sure you and the DJ are on the same page with the timeline for the day! Not to mention Rich is so high energy our guests loved him & all the props he brought! We used the photobooth option without an attendant and AGAIN our guests couldn't get enough!! I would 10/10 recommend Rich and Starshield Entertainment for anyone getting married!!

Where do I even begin with Starshield? They are AMAZING! Planning a wedding during Covid was the most trying thing I’ve ever done. Rich made it so easy though! We postponed once and it happened flawlessly and all our details were kept the same! Rich was so friendly and supportive and professional during everything. There were some hiccups at the reception, no fault of Starshield, and they took everything on their toes. And Kevin. Ugh. Kevin was the best hype man I could’ve ever asked for. He kept everyone happy and laughing and the ladies were especially happy with him. When it looked like it was gonna rain, they were on. The. Move. Every step of the way, they had an answer and just kept the party going. Rich, Kevin, and the whole crew at Starshield made my wedding AMAZING and PERFECT and i couldn’t have asked for a better DJ crew!

We used to Starshield as our DJ for our wedding on 4/10/21. From the moment we met Richard, we knew they were going to be great! We had to postpone our wedding twice over a year span since last June, due to Covid. Starshield was able to accommodate each date with no issue.
Fast forward to our wedding, and we were fortunate enough to have Kevin Hart as our DJ. Let me tell you, Kevin doesn’t miss a beat. From our before meeting to the end of our wedding, he made everything so easy, and not one bit stressful. He was such a good DJ that we decided to skip our garter/bouquet toss because everyone was dancing and having so much fun.
We HIGHLY recommend Starshield. They are adorable, professional, and they are extremely good at what they do!!

Starshield was a great company to work with! They listened to all of our needs and were super helpful in helping us plan a small family ceremony on the beach. They were flexible up to the very last request, which we made only 7 days before the wedding date. Tom did a beautiful job with the beach ceremony as well as our first dance that occurred immediately after the ceremony in front of hundreds of beach goers. Rich was very communicative and easy to work with, you can tell he truly cares about this business and treats all of his coworkers like family. The pricing was extremely fair and worth every penny. Thank you for helping set the mood on our perfect day!

We got married on September 26th and had the amazing pleasure of Kevin being our DJ and George being our Photobooth expert! Wow! What an amazing night.
Kevin kept the party going - got our dance floor packed - kept the entertainment going and all with a huge smile on his face. He even helped one of our friends get out on the dance floor and perform live!!!
George I know was a hit because friends of mine are still talking about him and how they wanted to get more pictures with him. He was so funny and helpful getting us props and making sure that we had our photo book by the end of the night.
But Starshield’s success for us started extremely early on wayyyy before our big day. We had two phone conversations with Richard and Kevin both giving us complete details on every aspect of our wedding to help us choose the right plan, put out a full time table for our big day and reminding us when we had homework to do.
I truly cannot thank them enough for making our evening a fairytale.

OMG Rich was so great to work with – he was so fun too! My brother said walking me down the aisle – ‘boy he timed that just right’ lol! Rich played all the songs we asked and had the crowd, though small only 50 guests, engaged – everyone had such a good time! I honestly felt like I was in an Italian village with the music. He even nailed the pronunciation of our Italian last names – no easy task! Haha! Got so many compliments from family on how great the music was and how fun Rich was! No problem at all moving our big day to next year. No issue no hassle – just a ‘sure we can move’ it. He just moved our deposit to the new date. Can’t wait for Rich to DJ/Emcee our full big wedding next Sep!

Richard and Kevin were amazing to work with! Considering we had to originally postpone our wedding due to the current pandemic, Richard and Kevin were so responsive and flexible. They were understanding and kind throughout the entire process.
On the actual wedding day, Kevin continued to be supportive! We loved how interactive he was with us and our guests. Kevin helped us relax a bit as he did a wonderful job managing the time/special events.
We would certainly recommend Starshield!

As always had another great experience with Rich and his staff! He is always so professional and accommodating. We had a benefit, and he generously donated a Photobooth for us to have fun taking pictures the night of the event, and also donated one for our Chinese Auction, which my twin nieces ended up winning! So Awesome! Victoria was very friendly, sweet, and helpful. She set it all up, and showed us how to use it, and send the pictures to ourselves.
These Photobooths are a great addition to any Event! They’re so fun, and the pictures are great keepsakes!
I would highly recommend Rich / Starshield Entertainment Group for all of your events. You’ll be happy you did. 😀
