Introduction: Over 20+ years of experience as a DJ and learned from some of the best DJ's in the market. I work very closely with my couples to figure out what they want for their wedding. Anyone can play music, a true professional will listen to your needs and make sure that they do what you expect and at the same time provide feedback that will make your night, one that you and your guest will not forget. I have top of the line equipment that is replaced every two/three years. I have backup equipment because I always want to make sure I am prepared. I work closely with your vendors to make sure we are all on the same page, last thing you need is a DJ calling the parents dance and your parents are not ready or the photographer is somewhere else. I ask for your feedback in regards to music and add songs that will work, based on your feedback and also by reading the crowd. I edit songs as needed and always take that extra step to make sure you are very happy. I love seeing people have a great time and dancing the night away. I love that every wedding or event is different. Customers hire me because they know I will take their request, read the crowd and add songs that will work with the vibe.

Jon performed DJ and MC services for our wedding with about 60 guests, and oh man do the pictures speak for themself. Jon’s music selection for the cocktail hour and reception were flawless. The mix of older dancing music with newer hits really brought the crowd together perfectly. Even the grandmothers were on the dance floor! Jon’s sense of humor was tremendous as well. From our sweetheart table we’d have him poke a little harmless fun at a couple of tables where our close friends were seated and the all the guests loved it. Not to be understated was Jon’s professionalism. He arrived at our wedding in a full suit and his DJ station was clean and tidy. Working with Jon leading up to the wedding was so easy. He took our itinerary and handful of music choices and really flourished it. I cannot recommend Jon and JAG Music & Entertainment enough

DJ Jon was AMAZING! We read tons of reviews and they were really helpful, so hopefully this will help someone else. He was wonderful to work with- super friendly and met us near our home, which was especially great as we approached the last few weeks of planning and everything was super hectic! He helped us walk through all of the musical moments of our reception and come up with songs we wanted for each. During the reception, he played the BEST music- we had a vision in mind for how we wanted it to feel, and he was perfect. Everyone was on the dance floor pretty much all night, and it was overall a blast. We chose him because we didn't want someone who would sound like a club DJ (although he could probably do that too; he's pretty adaptable!) but someone who would help keep everyone dancing because they wanted to, not because someone was telling them! He was incredible, and the photobooth was a HUGE hit! We added it at the very last minute and it was so popular. We used the photo strips as our guest book, as well! Overall, I would 100% recommend Jon for your wedding!

DJ Jon was so great to work with! From start to finish he was professional and knew what he was doing. He was so attentive to detail, responded to emails and requests very quickly and was flexible with any last minute changes we had. He made both me and my partner feel so comfortable throughout the entire process and kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! The service he provided is such a good value as he did our ceremony as well. The whole reception was seamless from start to finish and he kept the night moving. We would definitely reccomend him for your wedding or next event! - Ryan and Mike, 9.22.18

Jon was an excellent DJ for our school's prom. He played a great mix of music, including a lot of songs our prom committee requested before the event. All of the students had a great time! I was especially impressed with how flexible Jon was when the students requested to play "Coke and Pepsi" and he walked them through the instructions and led the game without taking too much time away from the dancing. Additionally, we had to change the date of prom 6 weeks out and he was able to be flexible and work with us on our new date. I would definitely recommend him for any event!

Jon is a great DJ and MC. We hired him for our wedding ceremony and reception at Endicott Estate in Dedham, MA. Our ceremony was outdoors and our reception indoors amongst a number of rooms. So, our venue presented Jon with a few acoustical challenges but he dealt with them with ease. As our MC, he kept our wedding day on track, making it easy for us to just enjoy the day. As our DJ he played music that engaged our culturally diverse guests all night, the dancefloor was never empty. Do yourself a favor and hire Jon for your next event.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing may be a little higher than what other smaller companies may charge, but you will get more than just a DJ. Pricing includes access to an online planning site, meetings to go over the details of your event, professional DJ equipment with back-up, working with your vendors so we are all on the same page, edit songs as required.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Usually I meet with the customer to go over the details of their event, then I send them a contract with access to the online planning site. For weddings, we meet on month before the wedding to go over the details (introductions, songs, etc) of the wedding and then a week before the wedding I contact the vendors to make sure they know what to expect.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 20 years of experience, started working with a large DJ company in the north shore and then moved to a smaller company in the south shore. There I learned what it meant to be a DJ and a professional.
