Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
In Albuquerque, NM, Styles DJ Services is here to get the party started and keep it going with their wedding DJ services. For over a decade, the team has brought its enduring, fun energy to each event. Your guests will be entertained from the first note to the final crescendo, making your celebration a memorable one.
Gilbert Wickens, the owner, fell in love with music at a young age, trying to dub tapes and splice together his favorite songs using just the radio. He has come a long way since then, building his business and acquiring top-of-the-range equipment. But the essence of his mission has always stayed the same; Gilbert wants to entertain and share his passion with people. The team's music knowledge is vast, with genres like rock, 90s R&B country and traditional NM. They can also move your guests' feet with merengue, salsa, and cumbia music.
The Styles DJ Services team works closely with couples, fitting seamlessly into each event. With affordable prices and a stellar reputation for being on time, they will impress you with their attention to detail. A consultation to discuss the vision for the day will help couples feel at ease during the planning process. Uplighting will illuminate your guests on the dance floor, and a complimentary light show could add an exciting element to the festivities. For the perfect accompaniment to their music, Styles DJ Services also has a range of photo booths and dancefloors.

We used styles DJ for our wedding and it was the best experience we could of had with a DJ. He was responsive to emails, phone calls and texts. He will tell you his job is to read ...
the crowd/people and absolutely does that. He got everyone that stayed for the wedding reception to dance! He had all 60 people dancing at various points throughout the evening. The music was on point with what we listen to and dance to. The DJ is very personable and professional. He comes highly recommended from the venues he's worked with.

ver you want for your event is what he’ll do and can for you suggestions if you need some. I’ve been to 3 weddings with DJ Styles, one being my own- he’s amazing experiencing him as both a guest and bride. In addition, his Photo Booth option is SO FUN and so easy!! You’ll get an adorable photobooth book with a copy of everyone’s photos at the end of the night as the sweetest keepsake. 10/10 recommend DJ Styles and his crew!

We met Gilbert at a Wedding Collective event in November ‘23. We were planning a destination wedding from Illinois to the Hyatt Tamaya in Bernalillo. Gilbert was so approachable an...
d easy for our young couple to relate to. He was kind, attentive to their questions and enthusiastic at the prospect of DJ’ing their wedding - he made them feel seen and heard. Gilbert just has an easy way about him and calmed some of the anxieties of the fiancés. They were very happy to hire him.
During the wedding planning, Gilbert maintained constant contact and provided a very detailed questionnaire as to the music choices and to the role the couple wanted the DJ to play at the reception. He was quick to respond to any inquiry. In fact, we asked Gilbert to add on to his hours post contract signing and he was more than happy to accommodate the late request and made it happen.
Arturo was our DJ for the ceremony and the reception. He did an amazing job seamlessly transitioning between 4 or maybe 5 different ceremony songs. He provided the requested classic crooner sounds during the cocktail hour. He got the entire group of guests up and clapping & dancing for the grand entrance of the wedding party and the newlyweds and then smoothly transitioned into getting all of the guests to the dance floor for a huge group photo! My only blip came during dinner service when the music was a bit too loud and a bit too rock & roll for that segment - while “give me three steps” by Lynyrd Skynrd might be a great dance tune, I would have preferred that Arturo stuck to the classic crooner sounds at a lower decibel during dinner service.
But once the reception started, Arturo kept the energy up and our guests were on the dance floor the entire time. He graciously took and played requests! He announced all the special occasions with a lot of joy and excitement for the newlyweds. And he kept the music playing until the very last minute of the party! I am still getting compliments on his talents!
I would highly recommend the services and the talents of Styles DJ services. They will not disappoint.

hen to pump up the party and when to let us catch our breath. The transitions between all the events were very smooth and he did such a great job at announcements. He also managed our epic rainstorm without a hitch and worked seamlessly with our photographers and wedding coordinators. We could not have asked for a better person to join us on our big day. If you're looking for a DJ for your wedding, you've definitely found him.

gularly, was super chill about moving things when stuff didn't follow the original plan, and did an amazing job keeping people on the dance floor. Honestly, as the bride I was just sad I couldn't keep dancing as long as I wanted due to my dress and not drinking enough water ahead of time. He really listened to us, and made the night so much better!

n excellent job for finding the music that people wanted to dance to.
We also really appreciated that the music was an appropriate volume for the space. We've been to several weddings where the music was just too loud, so it's not enjoyable to be in the reception room and you aren't able to talk to others. Gilbert made it so that we could listen to music AND hear other people, and that made such a difference.

ollywood music, line dances and audio files for choreographed songs apart from our first dance and the parents’ dance.. and he delivered. Not just that, he seamlessly mixed all the different genres, read the crowd so well and had so many people on the dance floor till midnight. I think we even heard someone say “Encore!” behind me! And his emceeing was awesome too - he made folks laugh and popped in some directions during our La Marcha for some of us who were clueless on the moves 😊 so happy he was our DJ!
