About DJ Nilla
Allen Smith
Making your big day the best day of your life is what I was born to do! I've DJed hundreds of parties since the mid-90s, so I know what it takes to help you throw an amazing party. If you are looking for someone with good energy, professional quality, and super responsiveness, then look no further.
DJ Nilla wears many hats and understands weddings from nearly every angle. Not only is Nilla a killer DJ, but he is also a pastor who has officiated many weddings, a father of four daughters (one getting married soon!), and, most importantly, your guide to keep the entire wedding running smoothly. With DJ Nilla, you’ll get pro-quality for mid-range rates. Habla español con fluidez y ha "djayed" muchas bodas durante su estancia en Perú, S.A.

Dancin in the Moonlight
During a nor'easter, he kept everyone hot on the dance floor and added classics such as Sinatra, Elvis and the Twist for a good mix He took some requests and we were all in a Congo line for Dancing in the Moonlight at Bembee beach in Annapolis!

Ness wedding Sept 26
We are the parents of the groom and had the pleasure of working with DJ Nilla for our son's wedding. From the start, he was wonderful about accepting people's special requests and made sure everyone felt heard. The quality of his work was top-notch—he kept the party rockin' with a great mix of old and new songs that got the dance floor packed all night long. His setup with lights and sound was impressive, and his engaging, fun energy really set the tone for the celebration. The flow and party vibe he created was exactly what we hoped for. We would not hesitate to use his services again and highly recommend him to any couple planning their wedding!

Our guests said "best DJ ever"!
We really wanted a lively dance party at our wedding reception and DJ Nilla delivered! So many guests told us afterward that he was amazing and the "best wedding DJ" they ever had. From a planning perspective, DJ Nilla met with us several times beforehand to discuss our preferences and expectations (e.g. we really wanted clean music), so we felt confident that he had everything under control and that the music would be great. On the day-of, he helped to instruct our wedding party on their entrance, made announcements throughout the night, and was just generally a huge help in keeping things organized and on schedule. Would totally use him again!

Great vibes and service!
We hired DJ Nilla for our wedding and Allen absolutely knocked it out of the park. From day one, he was responsive to every question and genuinely excited to work with us. What really impressed us was how he took the time to check out our Spotify profiles to understand our musical taste before the big day. Allen kept the energy high throughout the night and made sure everything ran like clockwork, while also being flexible when our coordinators needed to adjust timing. He collaborated seamlessly with our entire team, which made the whole experience stress-free. If you want a DJ who actually cares about your vibe and knows how to get a crowd moving, Allen is your guy.

Everyone had a blast!
From our first conversation, DJ Nilla (Allen) put us at ease and helped to calm my wedding planning stress. He made our wedding day feel elevated and holy at the right moments but also kept it so much fun! We loved how he hyped up the crowd before our entrance, mixed in our favorite songs, and kept our guests engaged and amused. We got many compliments that the "DJ was awesome!" We highly recommend DJ Nilla for any couple looking for an upbeat, fun DJ who genuinely cares about making your day special. He was great!
