    A fun and perfect evening!

    From start to finish, Richie from DJ Live Entertainment kept our reception energized and on point. He paid close attention to what was working on the dance floor, switching tracks instantly when he noticed the crowd wasn't feeling a song. The playlist was thoughtful and creative, mixing classics with current hits that got everyone dancing together. Richie's upbeat personality and quick thinking made the night flow seamlessly, building momentum right up until the final song. If you're looking for a DJ who actually cares about your guests' experience and knows how to read a room, DJ Live Entertainment is the way to go. We can't recommend them enough.

    Best wedding ever

    From our first conversation with DJ Live Entertainment, we knew we had found the right fit for our wedding. Richie was quick to respond to our questions and thoughtful about every detail, making sure everything would go perfectly for us. On the big day, he absolutely nailed it—once he started playing, nobody left the dance floor! You could tell he genuinely cares about his craft and was committed to giving us the best experience. Richie turned our reception into an unforgettable night and we can't thank him enough for making our day so special.

    The DJ We Knew We Had to Have!

    We first met Richie at a friend’s wedding, he was their DJ. We knew immediately that whenever our time came, we needed him at ours. When our time finally did come, Richie was one of the first people we knew we wanted by our side. From the moment we got in touch, we genuinely connected with him. He truly loves what he does and made the entire process stress-free. We went into our wedding day completely at ease knowing Richie was behind it all. And somehow, he still blew us away. From the emotion of our ceremony, to the perfect vibe at cocktail hour, to the absolute PARTY he created at our reception, Richie was incredible. The dance floor was packed and we had so many guests telling us how much they loved our DJ. He truly played such a huge part in making our wedding everything we dreamed it would be. Our day would not have been complete without DJ Live. We knew years ago that we wanted Richie there when it was finally our turn and somehow he still exceeded every expectation we had. We cannot recommend him enough. Truly the BEST!

    Absolutely Unforgettable!

    We cannot say enough good things about DJ Live! From our very first phone call with Richie, I knew he had the exact energy we wanted for our wedding. Richie gives off such positive, contagious enthusiasm — the kind every wedding, and any event, would be lucky to have! From our ceremony to our private last dance of the night, Richie and his team made the entire experience seamless, fun, and truly unforgettable. Richie took the time to really understand what we wanted and the overall vibe we were going for, and it showed. On the day of, he and his DJ read the room perfectly, keeping the energy high from start to finish. Our dance floor was pure joy from the first song until the very last — even family members who "don't dance" were out there having the time of their lives, including my 90-year-old grandma! Beyond the talent, Richie was incredibly communicative and flexible throughout the entire planning process. He was quick to respond to every email and question, and he happily worked with us as we added, changed, and rearranged our requests along the way. Whether it was adjusting the timeline, fitting in our trivia game and Pokeball toss, or accommodating a private last dance, Richie made it all feel easy and stress-free. He never made us feel like an inconvenience — just excited to help bring our vision to life. Every transition throughout the night — first dance, dinner, speeches, the dance set, trivia game — went smoothly and was executed flawlessly by Richie. His MC skills struck that perfect balance of warm, fun energy, all while knowing exactly how to work the crowd. What really set Richie and DJ Live apart was how genuinely they cared about giving us the best night possible — it showed in every song choice and every moment they helped bring to life. We truly cannot thank Richie and his team from DJ Live enough. Their talent, energy, and care in making our night perfect exceeded every expectation we had. If you're looking for a DJ who will turn your wedding into the best night ever and execute your vision flawlessly, DJ Live is the way to go! Thank you, Richie, for giving us a night we'll never forget!

We have been told what sets us apart from other DJ's is the ability to capture the room. While any DJ can play music and any MC can speak into a microphone, when DJ Live is in the room, there’s a unique presence that elevates the entire experience.
Whether or not we take music requests is entirely up to the bride and groom. During our final meeting, I always ask if they’re comfortable with allowing guest requests. The most common response is, ‘as long as it's a good song and won't clear the dance floor LOL!’ We're happy to honor requests that align with the vibe of your celebration as long as it's ok with the bride and groom.
Yes, and we can provide a COI upon request.
Black suit or Tuxedo, whichever is preferred. I prefer tux :)
