My wife and I couldn’t have asked for a better duo than Danny and Benny to DJ and bring our celebration to life.
Danny and Benny went above and beyond to create a day that was not just memorable but truly magical. From the first song to the last dance, they kept the energy high, the transitions seamless, and every single guest smiling and on their feet. Their professionalism, combined with their genuine passion for what they do, made them the perfect team to entrust with our big day.
While I’ve always been confident in the quality of our services, seeing Danny and Benny in action as a groom rather than a business owner has given me a deeper appreciation for the talent and dedication they bring to every event. They didn’t just play music—they orchestrated moments that my wife and I, along with our friends and family, will cherish forever.
If you’re looking for DJs who not only excel at their craft but also care deeply about making your day unique and unforgettable, Danny and Benny are exactly who you want. I’m so proud to have them as part of The Wedding Coach family.
DJ Derek was the Dj for our wedding this past weekend, and he did a great job! He kept the evening moving, and really read the room and adjusted the music accordingly. He played mu...
sic that we loved, while incorporating music that our guests were dancing too!
We were running a little behind after dinner and had to make a few adjustments to the timeline... Derek was incredible at helping us navigate that, and no one even noticed.
We got TONS of comments on the monogram he had projected on the dance floor... and the Co2 cannon is definitely worth it! Our guests loved this surprise.
The photo booth was easy to use, and gave us some excellent quality pictures!
I would definitely recommend their services for any wedding!

ure people had fun and Derek really helped with that! The photo booth was a MAJOR hit too and if you don’t get his package with the photo booth included pay for it! I’ve been to wedding where the DJ really doesn’t do much but Derek was extremely hands on and helpful through the entire day. I would recommend them to ANYONE!

On the big day, Derek was attentive and adaptable, ensuring everything ran smoothly despite a few unexpected changes. Our guests had a blast, and the dance floor was packed all night.

Thank you again for making the night special for us.
Derek was super great to work with! We ended up getting the Social photobooth through them and everyone loved it! Very accommodating and professional making sure that the day goes ...
as perfect as it can. I will say that the DJ that we had day of, which was not derek, could make a couple of improvements going forward with other weddings. Our guests were unable to hear anything that was announced to the crowd, including the introductions, which made it difficult when walking out. Not a big deal, but something that can be taken into consideration for future weddings. Also he was very much involved with the crowd but did stray from some of the requests and did not play a handful of songs that my husband and i specifically requested. All in all very great experience!
We are so happy we found The Wedding Coach for our our 10/7/2023 wedding. The app we were provided after booking was so easy to use. Derek was able to go with the flow with some la...
st minute changes because of the weather. Our venue had a couple levels to it and the ceremony was outside but the sound quality was perfect throughout the night. All of guests had fun and Derek made sure to check with us if a guest had a special request before doing so (this is another great option available in the app) We would choose The Wedding Coach again and again. Thank you for everything!

ay of timeline. It made everything else so smooth and fall perfectly into place. We also used his photo booth service and were surprised that at the end of the evening we were provided with the flash drive and photo book of all of our guest pictures that were taken. Such a treasure! I highly recommend Derek and his team!

As a bride who recently had her wedding, I cannot say enough good things about "The Wedding Coach" and their DJ services. From the moment we reached out to them, their communicatio...
n and professionalism were top-notch.
We booked the Silver package, which included 3 additional hours for our ceremony and cocktail hour. The DJ arrived early and set up seamlessly at both the ceremony venue and the reception venue. The music selection was perfect and kept the dance floor packed all night long. Our guests raved about the DJ's ability to read the crowd and play the right songs at the right time.
What really impressed us was their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our last-minute changes. We realized during the wedding day that we needed an extra hour of DJ service, and "The Wedding Coach" was able to extend their services without any hesitation. The transition was smooth, and they even threw in some bonus lighting to enhance the ambiance of our reception.
The level of professionalism and attention to detail from "The Wedding Coach" was exceptional. Their DJs were well-dressed, friendly, and interacted with our guests in a fun and engaging way. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day unforgettable.
We also appreciated their affordable pricing, as we compared it to other DJ services in the area. The value for the quality of service provided was outstanding. We felt like we received a personalized experience that was tailored to our preferences and vision for our wedding day.
Overall, we highly recommend "The Wedding Coach" for anyone in need of a wedding DJ. Their services were exceptional, and they exceeded our expectations in every way. Thank you, "The Wedding Coach," for making our wedding day perfect!

ey were able to provide me with a range of options that fit within my budget, and they were always happy to answer any questions I had along the way.
On the day of the wedding, the DJ arrived early and was extremely professional. They worked closely with the other vendors to ensure that everything ran smoothly, and they were able to accommodate any last-minute changes or requests that we had. Most importantly, they kept the dance floor packed all night long! Their music selection was fantastic, and they really knew how to read the crowd and play the right songs at the right time.
Overall, I can't recommend The Wedding Coach highly enough. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day special, and I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again in the future. If you're looking for a top-notch wedding DJ company, look no further than The Wedding Coach!

all night long with a mix of both classic and modern tunes, ensuring that everyone had a great time. Our DJ was truly the life of the party and made sure that our special day was unforgettable. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a talented and reliable DJ for their wedding or event.
We had a small ceremony and reception and really wanted to focus on the meaning behind the day. Derek worked with us from day 1 to make our dream of that a reality. From going thro...
ugh every little detail to checking in multiple times with us during the process. He helped make my vision a reality. Thank you again!
Derek is absolutely the master of his craft! We have received so many compliments on the music throughout our day and it is truly a testament to how impeccable Derek is at keeping ...
the vibe just right, throughout the entire day. The music during the ceremony and reception honestly far exceeded my wildest dreams. We ended up having to rearrange our order of events and Derek was so on top of it, suggesting a new order to make sure that the day was the absolute best it could be! If you are looking for the best DJ, you absolutely should go with The Wedding Coach, he truly went above and beyond throughout the entire day!!
From the start of the planning process for our wedding, Derek made himself available to us whenever we had questions or updates for him either through FaceTime, phone calls, or ema...
ils. He would always return our emails within a few hours, and we would be able to set up calls within that same week. He uses an app that the couple uploads their song requests and itinerary to which makes it easy to guarantee that each part of the reception is taken care of in the way you prefer. He will have you list all the songs you want for each category as a guide to the type of music you like. However, I would not stress about picking every single song because Derek does a great job recognizing the vibe of the crowd and adding some songs that might not be on the list. He played plenty of the songs we requested but also others that the guests seemed to get really excited about. He did an excellent job staying on track with the outlined schedule for the night as well but did not stress us out if we fell behind a little because we were having too much fun. He simply would come over to us and let us know where we were in the timeline to move things along. We initially picked Derek because of all of his prior experience, and we are so glad we did because he did not disappoint! It was so nice not having to worry about the party dying down when he was in control. In fact, the guests loved him so much that two engaged couples tried to book him for their upcoming weddings on the spot! You cannot go wrong if you book with The Wedding Coach for your special event!
We are so happy we booked The Wedding Coach. Derek made the process so easy for us. He had an app that we did all the planning with and he checked in with us multiple times to make...
sure all of our questions were answered. He was very organized and it made everything so much easier for us.
The night of he made sure music volumes were not to loud and announced everything so no one missed any of our special moments.
We truly cant thank you enough. Thank you again!
After a bad experience with another local DJ company, we were extremely relieved to find The Wedding Coach.
They were incredibly professional and accommodating throughout the whol...
e experience and did a great job incorporating my requests and those of my mom. We didn't want a showboat for a DJ, we simply wanted our guests to have a great time and for things to run smoothly.
The online tools were extremely easy to use and everyone was incredibly accommodating when it came to my schedule and availability (I live in Seattle and work nights). Our guests had a great time and our DJ did a wonderful job keeping things running smoothly. My husband had requested one song ("Simple Man") and our dj went and retrieved him (!) so that he wouldn't miss the song. Thank you so so much for exceeding our expectations!
One of the best DJ’s around!! Very professional and provided such GREAT! We truly enjoyed them at our wedding and will HIGHLY recommend The Wedding Coach! Thanks!!!
The wedding coach is the best!!! Couldn't have asked for a better DJ experience. Everyone loved our DJ we got endless comments about how great he was. They were super easy to work ...
with and it got me having a lot of fun looking back into all my favorite songs that fit for my wedding. Our wedding was amazing and a lot of it was because of how organized and professional they were! Thank you! Highly recommend!
I was thoroughly impressed with everything! When our dj showed up to the venue he came in with a plan. He was super friendly and introduced himself to the other vendors right away....
He checked in with me and my wife multiple times during the evening to see if there was anything we needed and made sure we were ok with the volume of the music during dinner and the rest of the evening. He made sure not only me and my now wife were ready for each event but he announced everything so that everyone was aware what was going on and he checked in with our video and photographers so they were ready as well. If I could give 10 stars I would. My guests are still talking about how much fun they had and it was the celebration of the century! Thank you again!

om his song choices, communication leading up to the wedding, and his willingness to go above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. We even were able to book a photo booth through Derek which was easily a highlight for everyone! I promise you will not be disappointed in booking The Wedding Coach for your wedding or big event!
We met with Derek twice before booking and he was able to answer all of our questions. We saw the great reviews he had and knew we were in great hands. I was doing a lot of the pla...
nning myself so I knew I wanted certain things at specific times through out the night. Derek was able to accommodate all of our request and was ever flexible day of with some last minutes changes we had. Our photographer told us she had never seen such a packed dance floor all night for a wedding and we couldn't agree more! Everyone had a fantastic time and loved the music. It wasn't your standard wedding playlist which we really enjoyed. Overall we would recommend Derek and his team!

We are so happy we chose them because of their great reviews and our initial conversations. Even with the expectations high, they knocked it out of the park. I wish I could give th...
em 6 stars and I'm sure several other folks would too. They worked seamlessly with our event center and were extremely organized, accommodating to our needs, and leading every transition of the wedding. You can play what you want to play or you can give them control over your day. No matter what you're in good hands!

re looking for a DJ to keep the party going but not be overkill on the microphone Derek is a perfect match for you! We could not have been more thankful we choose him for our wedding day!
If you're looking for a phenomenal DJ, you definitely will not be disappointed with Derek!! There truly aren't enough good things to say, but let me tell you he definitely helped t...
o make our night perfect!! Many of our guests described the night as "epic"! After we opened the dance floor I can honestly say there wasn't a time when it was close to being empty. The music selection was exactly what we were looking for. My dad and I added a little twist to our father daughter dance. I sent Derek a video of an example of what we wanted to do and he made it happen without a hitch. We added some things the day of the wedding and an impromptu dance with my grandfather and he made the changes no questions asked. Played any song requests from guests. He worked well with our other vendors to ensure all the moments were captured perfectly. He is extremely professional and classy. The app we used to plan our songs and create a planning timeline is so easy to use and allowed both my husband and I to add what we wanted to hear throughout the night as well as the all the songs we wanted played at the special moments. I know this is a long review but trust me if you're looking for an amazing DJ to throw an amazing and EPIC party you will not be disappointed by hiring Derek aka The Wedding Coach!!!
We hired The Wedding Coach for our wedding and from the first call to the end of our wedding the customer service and professionalism with the company was super. We talked to Derek...
and he answered all of our questions in regards to our wedding and what services we were interest it. We choose the DJ and Photo Booth package and it was affordable and all we need it for our wedding day. He paired us with a DJ and the DJ was excellent and had great communication as well. The Photo Booth attendant was very friendly as well and made sure all of our guest were having fun inside the Photo Booth and he even kept the props very organized after each guests use to make it look clean and ready for our next guest. We highly recommended this company to any couples looking for a good service that it would not break your bank.
Your DJ can make or break your wedding, and Derek is honestly the best. He communicates well, presents you with any option you can imagine (including photographs and a custom light...
monogram).
The best thing I can say though, is how well he worked with our photographer to ensure all of the most special moments were captured. (Seriously our photographer raved about his professionalism). Love this company, and wish I could give more stars.
Simply amazing!! I can’t say enough good things about the wedding coach and Derek! He’s a DJ, emcee and wedding planner all in one! He is organized, professional, calming and was p...

You absolutely will not be disappointed hiring the Wedding Coach! My husband and I agree that he was our absolute best vendor! He was worth every penny and more!!!
