Main Event DJ was absolutely PHENOMENAL to work with!!! We met Gary at a Bridal Expo and he made our decision to contract with him easy, from the 1st introduction. His great demeanor, strong organizational skills, clear process & thorough Questionnaire made for super-efficient/effective planning. Our custom instrumental-only entrance song was executed perfectly and Gary assisted in so many other ways too [from sound and set-up for our officiant & violinist, to helping with cues & sequence of events, to letting us know the cake was in the middle of the dance floor (when/where our first dance was

Where to start! Gary made the entire wedding from the ceremony to the reception smooth and a blast. He was great at announcing and organizing everyone during the transition from the ceremony into the reception. He did a amazing job on the grand March and throughout the night for keeping the party alive. He was also great at following through on song requests for our guests.
He was polite, professional, and easy to work with. Highly recommend him for any weddings or events. His set up was also awesome as well.
Gary nailed it!

We hired Gary to DJ a backyard pool party for my sister‘s 50th birthday. Gary was so engaging, he made the party so much fun. He knew the exact vibe and got the music down perfectly. We also did karaoke and it really made the party so much more fun. Gary himself even did a song, which everyone greatly enjoyed. This was the first time working with Gary however he will be my families “go to” DJ for all parties!
Thanks Gary for great tunes & time !

Gary was phenomenal! When we booked him, the process was very easy and it was incredibly clear exactly what we’d be getting from him. He was on time and had everything set up well in advance of our ceremony and reception. And then once the party started, he had the room going wild. By the end of the night, we all were so exhausted from the dancing, while simultaneously feeling like we could go for another few hours because of how great Gary was with the song selections. If we ever host another party like that in the area, Gary would definitely be our first choice for MC.

Gary was so great to work with! He was so responsive, helpful and flexible with Covid restrictions and possible rescheduling. The day of our wedding, Gary was on time, organized and, most importantly, he played great music which made the reception so much fun! Highly recommend for a fair price and an overall great DJ!

We booked gary back in 2019 before the pandemic thru a bridal expo. My fiance and i loved gary the first time we met him. He was the first DJ we came to at the expo and we both didnt even wanna look at other DJs. We book with gary and got everything set up. Then the pandemic hit and gary worked with us with changing our wedding date 3 different times! We got married last night and gary blew us away with how amazing he was! He had a ton of crazy energy and knew how to get the party started! If i ever needed another DJ he is the only person i would go with hands down!! As a bride everything is crazy

We had an absolutely amazing time with having Gary as our DJ for our wedding! He was very responsive and accommodating during the process! The night was SO much fun! He brought his own dj set up and extra accessories (like the monogram board), which was incredible! He made our night run so incredibly smooth and made our wedding perfect! Totally TOTALLY recommend as a DJ for your wedding!
