I would strongly recommend MD Music & Entertainment. My wife and I were fortunate to have DJ Brian as the DJ for our wedding in the Catskills in late October, and we could not have been happier with the experience. From Day One, we found Matty and the MD team to be responsive, professional and easy to work with, especially as we navigated a COVID postponement. The team kept in touch with us during our long planning period, and everyone was very well organized in the leadup to the wedding day. On that day, DJ Brian arrived early and checked in with us frequently to be sure everything was to

MD Music and Entertainment DJ'd our wedding reception at the Box House Hotel in Greenpoint, Brooklyn this past May. Matty was our DJ and he was fantastic. He was incredibly organized and professional as we planned the music and type of reception we wanted to have (read as: huge dance party with a few traditions worked in such as first dances and toasts). Matty was super responsive, personable and helpful as we made our music decisions. He made it so easy to pick our music and gave us a ton of thoughtful suggestions as we created our reception timelines. At the same time he worked with the

I had the BEST experience with DJ Matty.
From our first meeting, he was so cool and knowledgable and fun and easy to talk to. He was so completely organized, full of info I would have never thought of. He was completely tried and true.
I loved the database he used to acquire all the information and songs I wanted at the wedding. He made notes and asked questions between our first and second meeting. We used his run down of the day as the BIBLE for the wedding day.
I felt so safe with him DJing our ceremony as well as DJing the reception. And I was right to feel safe and trust him completely.

Once again MD Music makes our event spectacular! Stephen was our DJ for my husband's 40th surprise birthday. Every request I had, he followed through. I had a very specific timeline, and he was so accommodating. The guests are still talking about the music that was played!!!!!! The photo booth they provided was so much fun, everyone truly enjoyed it! This company is professional and I am so happy they were our DJ for another special event in our life!!! Thank you for making my husband's 40th an unforgettable event!!!!!

We hired MD Music & Entertainment for our son's Bar Mitzvah and could not be more pleased about the experience we had working with Matty Stuart as well as MC Pedro and DJ Shaun on the day of the event. Matty made it so easy for us and was a pleasure to work with. He really understood what type of music we wanted and what my son and his friends really wanted to hear. He was able to come up with a playlist that managed to please the youngest to the oldest guest and it kept everyone up on the dance floor. He was at the event to set up and stayed until he knew that everything was running smoothly

DJ Matty was absolutely incredible playing music at our wedding on 8/4/17. From the beginning of process in selecting music to playing on the big day, DJ Matty was very professional and helpful. He incorporated all of our songs in an amazing set. In addition, he made suggestions for music selection, which were nice touches. We had guests coming from around the world and everyone has enjoyed the music. We would like to thank DJ Matty for helping to make our special day unforgettable! DJ Matty is the best! We highly recommend DJ Matty

Our guests are still emailing us for a copy of the wedding playlist! Matty is an exceptional DJ and was a professional partner to work with for our wedding, on December 30. Matty and a 3-piece latin band that he brought with him performed at our wedding, and it was perfect. Matty is super responsive, organized and I never worried about how the music was going to work out. He took the time to learn about my husband and I, our likes and dislikes, and also got to know our variety of guests. With this information, he curated an amazing music experience and helped MC the night, keeping things on

DJ Matty rocks in all ways! Matty did all he possible could ensure the success of our event - a 40th / 4th for my husband and daughter. Both the kids and adults had the perfect party simultaneously - no easy feat! Matty was also so helpful in transporting our party favors and accessories to the venue. He hired the perfect drummer to accompany him which brought the perfect live music feel. I would absolutely recommend DJ Matty Stuart - your event will surely be a blast!

Matty MADE our wedding! He has such a good sense of how to curate the evening - picking alll the right jams for the dance floor but also knowing when you need a slower song to catch your breath. He's also just an all-around wedding expert. He helped us figure out the flow of the whole event and had great ideas to keep our guests happy (he suggested a mini dance party between our first dance and dinner - amazing! Everyone was on the floor and had so much energy, and Matty picked timeless hits that guests of all ages could sing along to.)
Matty was also so easy to work with - always quick to

DJ Matty was the absolute best and we are so lucky to have found him! We could not have been happier with our wedding - our wedding was incredible from start to finish and so much of it was because of Matty. He was friendly and helpful every step of the way and put us completely at ease from the very moment we met him. He crafted such an fantastic set that everyone could not stop coming up to us during the wedding to tell us how great the music was and how much fun they were having. We would recommend Matty to everyone who wants to having a great time!

DJ Matty and DJ Andy were such a pleasure to work with!!! We wanted a low key wedding that involved lots of dancing and no cheesy "wedding" songs. Matty has an amazing website that helps with the planning process and separates every decade of music with popular tunes so you can go through and check off the songs you like. There are sections of his survey where you can list all the songs you don't want to hear as well. We had so much fun with the planning process going through all of the songs he had listed and couldn't remember them all so we would look them up on iTunes and

I barely know where to begin with what makes Matty so great, so I will start at the chronological beginning. Matty was, from start to finish and even afterwards, incredibly quick in his responses and professional in his communication. It was clear from our first conversation (all via Skype, as we planned from a distance) that he was a classy guy, and his demeanor of understated confidence in the quality of his product--the arrangement of music, no cheesy calls to the dance floor--is just what we were looking for. We also hoped to have lived stringed musicians, and were thrilled that he was able

Matty Stuart (MD Music) was our DJ for our wedding reception at the Harvard Club of NY on June 22, 2013 and we can't recommend him enough! In fact, we ALWAYS recommend him when friends ask who our DJ was.
Our search for a DJ started on The Knot and ended as soon as I met Matty in person. I met with a few different DJs and Matty was the only one that I felt "got" us.
He's friendly and laid-back yet very professional. He helped put us at ease during the entire process and provided us with advice and guidance long before the actual event. For example, he helped us with the

As Margot G. detailed in her review, DJ Matty was easily the best DJ we discovered during the long process of listening to and selecting a DJ for our wedding. We had received a lot of recommendations for DJ's along the way, and had listened to their work on their websites. Unfortunately, we hadn't been really impressed by anything we had heard, and we started to worry that we wouldn't find a good DJ. Coupled with stories I'd read online or heard from friends about DJ's who kinda took over the wedding with their announcements and all that, I was starting to think we wouldn

Look no farther. Use Matty as your DJ. Do it, do it now!! :) There were so many things about Matty that made him excellent. Really, I cannot give a high enough endorsement.
Shea D and I found Matty through a family friend. We looked him up online and found that he had been a "Knot Pick" for 2014 and 2015. Until then we had been underwhelmed with the potential DJ choices for our wedding. Knowing that our family loves music and dancing, we were starting to get nervous! And as we all know, a DJ can make or break a good wedding reception!
So we found Matty's website (which is linked

Do NOT hesitate if you are thinking of using Matty as your DJ. He is the absolute best! My husband and I used Matty for our wedding a few weeks ago, and I am still thinking about the amazing job he did. My husband and I had a million questions for him prior to our wedding- and he was quick to respond with answers that made us feel excited and calm. Matty did the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and we couldn't be happier with the way things went. His music suggestions were always on point, and he listened to what music we really wanted to hear and what music we really didn
