We had Jay as our DJ and he was great! He was super helpful with keeping everything on track and moving in terms of the pacing for our reception. He helped introduce everyone who w...
as giving a speech and was a great MC! The music was also amazing the whole night. We had a full dance floor the entire time.
We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ than Tom Subjak! From start to finish, he was professional, organized, and so easy to work with. Tom truly understood the vibe we were going ...
for and made sure the music reflected our style perfectly. He kept the energy up all night, and our guests were on the dance floor nonstop — we received so many compliments about the music!
Tom also helped keep the timeline flowing smoothly, which made the day feel stress-free for us. He was kind, attentive to every detail, and played such a big role in making our wedding day unforgettable. We’re so grateful to have had him as part of our special day and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing DJ experience!
The Milwaukee Wedding DJ Company was outstanding. Professional, well-prepared, and effective at reading the room. Music and announcements supported the flow of the night rather tha...
n competing with it, and transitions felt seamless. They were easy to work with ahead of time, incorporated our preferences, and executed cleanly on the wedding day. If you want a DJ who treats the reception like a live production this team is a strong pick.
Matt took care of our contract and payment, he was very easy to talk to and answered our all questions in a timely manner.

lp finalize some final details with our overall wedding itinerary.
Thank you guys so much, our wedding was a great time because of you!
My only "issue" was that the songs were in a very weird order than what I envisioned. If I had done it all differently I would have communicated that better but hey, overall the job was done and we appreciate it.
The owner Matt was accessible and easy to communicate with during the entire process. Tom was our actual wedding DJ and he did a fantastic job. He was the nicest guy and made sure ...
that every detail was touched on. Thank you x1000!!
My husband and I, plus our other vendors and most importantly our guests, LOVED our DJ Jay!
Matt, the owner, was exceptional with communication from start to finish. Very quick to...
respond and answer questions! They have a very thorough questionnaire to fill out that gives them all the information they’ll need to MC efficiently and not need much from you on wedding day!
Our DJ, Jay, was incredible. We asked him to do some things he hadn’t done before, like play violin covers softly during the ceremony, and make an announcement to guests that it’s okay to Irish Exit (in professional verbiage) when they’re ready to go! (We didn’t want to be pulled away from our party all night because people want to say bye, we know they love us! I recommend adding something like this!) He was all for everything and we were so impressed with his delivery and enthusiasm in his MC’ing. He kept the party going all night and was just fabulous to work with. Having a great DJ that can MC and keep the flow is so important! It can be harder booking a DJ than other vendors, because you really can’t get a good idea of their work like you can a photographer for example. So let this review be your evidence that this company has talented, professional DJ’s that you can trust in every aspect!
Matt and team were fantastic! They helped keep the day flowing smoothly, played a great mix of music for dancing, and the photobooth was a huge hit. We LOVE the memory/guestbook we...
got from everyone's photos!
Jay was great! He kept everything on time and offered suggestions when things didn't go 100% as planned. He was easy to communicate with and played all the songs we wanted to hear....
The photobooth was a lot of fun, and the book we got was a nice touch. Would recommend.
Our dance floor was full all night! Jay our DJ checked in with us consistently to make sure everything was running to plan. They listened to what we wanted and provided. If you’re ...
deciding to get the photo booth…DO IT. The book we received at the end of the night we will cherish forever.

ting needed to speak to others. Got things moving on schedule. Only hiccup we had was food vendors delaying DJ but he handled it well and it was only a few minutes behind. Matt was fantastic and played music to the very end. We enjoyed his production, lighting and atmosphere he provided our guest.
We hired the Milwaukee Wedding DJ for our wedding on 9/14/24. The entire experience was A+ from the day we contacted them to the conclusion of our reception. Matt was professiona...
l and prompt in his communication. Jay was incredibly organized with making sure that he had all the correct songs for the processional, recessional, and first dances. He arrived early to our venue to conduct microphone checks with our officiant, and ensure that there was audio properly set up. This was especially important because the ceremony, dinner, and reception were all in different locations on the property.
We are so thankful to have hired the Milwaukee Wedding DJ. A great DJ can make or break a wedding, and Jay did a phenomenal job. We can't imagine having hired anyone else.
So many of our guests have followed up with us over the last few days to let us know how much fun they had, and the DJ was a huge part of that. Jay kept the dance floor packed from start to finish with his stellar song selections. Thank you Jay!!
Jay from MKE Wedding DJ was amazing! He kept the dance floor rocking all night and made us very happy with coordinating with photographer, wedding planner, and venue staff. Thank y...
ou so much for making our day super special!

Matt was amazing for our wedding. He was phenomenal when it came to communication before the ceremony and making sure everything was ready to go to have a seamless night. He also...
did a wonderful job playing the songs we wanted played, and keeping the dance floor occupied, even with guests having to go room to room from the dance floor and the bar. All of our guests were so happy with the mix of music Matt put together, people we have never seen on the dance floor were out there dancing the night away. I would highly recommend the Milwaukee Wedding DJ to be at ANY wedding!
We worked with TMWDJ for our April 2024 wedding and they were great! We saw Matt from a wedding convention and after talking to a few other vendors felt like he was the best choice...
for our personalities. Tom actually DJ’d day-of (venue was Black Swan’s Riverwalk in the Third Ward) and was very accommodating. Tom also was quick on his feet and was able to make a last-minute speaker pivot so that we could have our first dance outside on the riverwalk, which made it SO much more intimate and romantic! Thank you Tom!!
Being the planner that I am, I wish we could have had our run-through call sooner than a week before, but Tom obviously knew what he was doing and had plenty of communication with our officiant outside of that call, which we really appreciated.
During the wedding, he was really good at reading the room and switching things up as needed. AND playing everything in our “punk rock power hour” that we requested. SO much fun!
Would recommend them both!
We had Tom as our DJ from The Milwaukee Wedding DJ. I met one of the owners at a wedding expo and immediately knew that this was the company that we wanted to go with. Both the own...
er and Tom were so nice and easy to work with. We filled out a form with details and song requests and then Tom walked us through the form the week before our wedding to talk through all the details. We felt great going into the wedding day and even throughout the day, he made sure to touch base with us regarding our timeline. He played amazing music and all of our guests loved him! We had a few high priority songs and he made sure that they were played during the night. Everything went so smoothly. We recommend this DJ to everyone!
Our DJ Jay was so professional and he really made us in control on how we wanted to do things. He gave us choices and he was very flexible on our timelines! Everyone enjoyed the mu...
sic he played and he was just a fantastic person! I will refer the Milwaukee DJ to future couples who are planning their wedding!
We cannot recommend Milwaukee Wedding DJ enough! When searching for DJs, we reached out to a few friends who got married and it was almost unanimous in that they used and recommend...
ed Milwaukee Wedding DJ and for good reason!
From the very beginning, Jay and Matt were wonderful when it came to communication and logistics. Prior to our wedding, we also met with Jay, our wedding DJ, to talk about the schedule. When talking with him, he provided a few suggestions that we absolutely LOVED and would not have thought of ourselves!
Our reception was absolutely perfect and Jay's playlist was wonderful- there was just the right amount of personalization, requests, and slow songs. He also did a phenomenal job facilitating things like the grand march, speeches, and making announcements when late night food was ready. We cannot recommend him enough!
Our wedding was also in downtown Madison on Homecoming weekend, which was continually something we stressed about. Jay reassured us that everything would be great and he seamlessly navigated the traffic, venue, and all of the logistics. It's clear he's done a lot of weddings, and we could not imagine a. better DJ!
We had a terrific experience with Jay and the Milwaukee Wedding DJ team! Jay and Matt were very responsive during the planning phase, had some great suggestions for the reception (...
group photo, order of events, etc.), and made the entire process from start to finish completely stress-free. Jay is a seasoned veteran and kept all of our guests out on the dance floor the entire night with hit after hit! He was personable, knew exactly what to play, and when to speak up as MC. We may be a little biased, but Jay is honestly the best wedding DJ we've personally seen. :) Five stars all day!
The Milwaukee Wedding DJ team is amazing! We had to reschedule our wedding twice due to COVID and they were so understanding and gracious with us. On the day of our celebration, we...
had Tom as out DJ. Tom was so great! He knew exactly what to play when and was able to read the crowd impeccably. I was blown away by his wealth of son knowledge and expertise. He was also very helpful in keeping things moving by announcing things on time. I cannot think The Milwaukee Wedding DJ enough for helping to make our day so special. I tell everyone I know about them!
Dj was really nice and fun to work with. Very communicative. The only reason I can't give 5 stars in because there were a lot of songs on my must play that weren't. When I asked if...
he could play it soon he said he wasn't able to find any songs by them. Which I found hard to believe because i asked about Morgan Wallen...lol little disappointed in that.
Matt was our dj for our wedding on 10/1/22. We used his dj services for ceremony music, reception and MC. Everything was set up and ready to go and the ceremony music played on tim...
e with no issues. The reception was a blast with guests dancing all night. He was right on schedule with the events of the night (speeches, dances, bouquet toss, etc.) and abided by our must play and do not play lists. He was so funny, made the night a blast, and our guests complimented how good our dj was. I absolutely recommend hiring the Milwaukee Wedding DJ! We were so impressed and happy with their services!
When I say that I have gotten more compliments on how amazing our DJ was than ANYTHING else to do with our recent wedding, you know they were great! Jay and the team at Milwaukee w...
edding DJ were INCREDIBLE. They were so easy to work with and I kid you not, Jay had the dance floor packed from start to finish! People were “complaining “ that they can’t play so many great songs, they need a break! I would recommend them to anyone who needs a DJ for anything, they were spectacular! Truly worth the money and I want to have another wedding just to have them DJ again!
10/10 Recommend this DJ. I worked with Matt initially to get started and sign for our contract. He was amazing and so quick to respond. Our actual DJ ended up being Jay, and he was...
just fantastic. People at our wedding were asking for his business card. The dance floor was going until the minute we closed the venue. Jay also offered some really fun suggestions like a table run for pictures, and our guests loved it. We can't recommend this company enough! Thank you Matt and Jay!
Jay was amazing! We rolled with everything he suggested to make our wedding more fun and all those suggestions were a big hit with us and our guests.
He seemed to always be in th...
e right place at the right time with the microphone before, during, and after dinner.
People were struggling to find room on the dance floor for most of the evening.
He was a fantastic emcee, great DJ, and overall wonderful person. Thanks again for a great day Jay!
Matt and his team were amazing! The lighting he brought really added to our venue’s charm, the photo booth was super fun, and people were out on the dance floor all night long havi...
ng an absolute blast — even my older family members! There was music for everyone. Matt even went the extra mile and downloaded the theme songs to match the TV shows we used to group people for dinner announcements which everyone thought was unique and funny. He was a pleasure to work with and clearly cares about making your wedding easy and fun! Highly recommend him for your special day!
The Milwaukee wedding DJ was absolutely amazing to work with! Our DJ, Tom, was the glue that kept our big day together! He kept things on schedule and coordinated with our other ve...
ndors as well. He was able to get music into three separate areas of our venue and everything flowed the entire night. They were great with communication, and called us the week of to walk through everything to make sure we didn't have any questions. I highly recommend having Tom or one of the other DJs at Milwaukee Wedding DJ for your wedding!
The Milwaukee Wedding DJ was great to work with! We had Matt as our DJ and he was AMAZING. Communication leading up to our day was so easy and they respond so quickly. We had nothi...
ng to worry about. We had Matt do our ceremony music and reception music. Everything was spot on. A good family friend actually surprised me and my dad with a different song for our father daughter dance (good surprise) and Matt was so accommodating and made this happen. He had the dance floor packed all night and even came out to join us in the dance floor at one point to show people how to Wobble LOL. I would highly recommend The Milwaukee Wedding DJ. You will not be disappointed and they are fairly priced. Our friends are actually using them for their wedding in spring! Thank you, Matt!!!
We had Jay as our DJ for the day. We had sound set up for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception in three different locations across our venue. He did a fabulous job of setting ...
everything up smoothly. We appreciated the questionnaire they sent a few months before the wedding so we knew what to plan for our music selection. Then we had a call the week of the wedding to review all the details. Jay was so helpful and even texted us leading up to the wedding to confirm the small changes we requested after the call. We mixed up the line up order before the grand March and Jay was excellent at coming back to check and get us organized. We could not have asked for anything more when it came to keeping the energy up all the way through midnight! Jay was the best DJ and emcee for our wedding day!!
We had Jay as our DJ and he was fantastic! Jay met with us beforehand and gave us a lot of fun ideas for things to do during dinner and the first dances and in general made plannin...
g a lot easier. The music and mic setup for the ceremony were perfect and Jay did a great job introducing the wedding party and MC'ing throughout the the night. Everything he played was fun to dance to, although we wish he would've played a few more off of our must play list. Jay did a great job of finding clean versions of songs we were hesitant about due to the younger guests and everyone said they had a great time dancing all night. We would highly recommend Jay to anyone looking for a wedding DJ.
So easy to work with! And the night was a blast!
We had Jay as our DJ and Jacob for our photo booth. Would recommend to everyone!!! They were both more than accommodating and kept people on the dance floor all night long. Communi...

Our DJ was great!!! Easy to work with and played all the right songs!

arch/first dances/etc. The communication on the day-of and leading up to our wedding day was excellent. He played really great music and also used his own discretion in timing song requests so we didn't accidentally clear the dance floor. We had a BLAST and I couldn't imagine a better dance party! Thanks Matt for a great night!

The dance floor was never empty, he did such a great job of paying attention to the guests and playing perfect songs...we received so many compliments!

The value was amazing, we absolutely recommend the Milwaukee Wedding DJ & Tom specifically!

We booked the Milwaukee Wedding DJ for our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and photo booth. Jill was our DJ, and she did an amazing job! We had a phone meeting the week before,...
where she outlined everything and even pointed out some things we hadn't even thought of. On the day of, she was amazing! There were also two other assistants with her (I totally forgot their names) who really did a great job keeping the photobooth and party going! The music was amazing, and I liked that only my bridal party could request music. Even though COVID-19 kept the dance floor emptier than usual, it was still such a blast! Jill even came out from behind the DJ booth to lead us all in doing the Wobble! Hands down one of the best wedding DJ's I've ever seen. Thanks Jill!
Jay was our DJ and he was amazing. He knew how to read the crowd and what to play to get people on the dance floor, which should be a natural thing for a DJ but trust me, I've been...
to weddings where that was not the case. Jay made sure to communicate with us throughout the whole day to make sure things were on track or adjust the timeline if needed. Would highly recommend Jay and The Milwaukee Wedding DJ!
If you're looking for a Wedding DJ who could NOT pass as an amateur birthday party magician then you've found the one! I found out while meeting with DJs that a lot of them are .....
. overly showy? We wanted someone who could read the room, give instructions when needed, and blend into the background. Matt was all of these things! People raved about the music choices. We did the photo booth as well, I'm not a huge photo booth fan personally... but man people love it! TMWDUL&PB were a great bang for our buck. They are professional, friendly, and not in any way, shape, or form cheesy. Strongly recommend. 10/10
I am honestly not usually one to write anything but positive reviews. However, if there was anything I would change about my wedding it would have been the DJ. Per my initial email...
s with Matt I had requested the enclosed photo booth to which he assured me would be no problem. The day of the wedding though, there was no booth, just a black backdrop and a camera that took an odd amount of time taking pictures. Jill was our DJ, she called a few days before the wedding to go over final details and information which went really well. She asked if we were ok with our guests requesting music and we told her we absolutely were. Jill said she does use discretion when playing requested songs to stay away from super depressing or hard rock music or anything that would kill the vibe which completely made sense to us. I have had nothing but complaints from my guests because they were requesting songs and they were never played, Jill even told some of them she doesn’t take requests because she has her own playlist. Even my father couldn’t get a song he requested to play which is extremely upsetting to me, considering none of the songs being requested would have killed the vibe in my opinion and I would have been happy to hear them.
I would honestly look somewhere else for your wedding DJ, learn from my mistake! Unfortunately I can’t get that day back.
What can I say about TMWDJ, our wedding was on 10/18/19 and our DJ was Matt he was amazing!! He played all the songs I requested for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. He a...
lso played a few extra ones that guests asked him to play. Matt kept the dance floor packed all night long and was awesome MC making people get out to dance. He even danced with me (bride) a merengue song :). Thank you so much Matt for playing all my genres Merengue, Salsa, Bachata & Reggaeton you rock!
