Djayladd was awesome! I booked him for my wedding after my original DJ canceled less than a month before my wedding. Djayladd responded fast whenever I messaged him and asked great questions about songs we wanted played and songs we didn’t want played. Djayladd arrived on time and kept the music going to the end! While he is young and new to MCing he is great and is definitely going to go far in this business!

We had the pleasure of working with Djayladd for our annual apartment community pool party, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations! From start to finish, they kept the energy high with an amazing mix of music that appealed to both kids and adults. They were professional, punctual, and incredibly easy to work with throughout the event.
The music created the perfect atmosphere, keeping residents engaged, dancing, and having a great time all afternoon. We've received so many compliments from our residents about how much fun they had, and the DJ played a huge part in making the event such a success.
If you're looking for someone who is reliable, entertaining, and knows how to read a crowd, we can't recommend them enough. We look forward to working with them again at future community events!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ for our wedding! From the moment he arrived, everything was professional and seamless. He showed up early, had all the right equipment ready to go, and completed setup incredibly fast without any issues.
What really stood out was how well he understood the vibe we wanted. He played all of our requested songs perfectly and kept the energy high throughout the entire event. The mix of amazing throwbacks and current hits had everyone on the dance floor all night long. He truly made the occasion fun, lively, and unforgettable for us and our guests.
If you’re looking for a DJ who is reliable, talented, and knows how to create an incredible atmosphere, I highly recommend him. Thank you again for making our special day so memorable!

Finding a DJ who truly understands the assignment on your wedding day is rare, and ours knocked it out of the park.
From the moment guests arrived to the last song of the night, the energy was perfectly calibrated. What stood out most was his ability to read the room in real time. Transitions between songs were seamless, not just technically clean, but thoughtfully matched in tempo and mood so the dancefloor never lost its momentum. It felt less like a playlist and more like a live, breathing set.
What really impressed me was how he handled song requests from guests. Rather than awkwardly dropping them in or ignoring them entirely, he blended requested tracks into the flow naturally, so guests heard their songs without the vibe ever taking a hit. That takes real skill and experience.
His MC work was equally strong. He commanded the mic with confidence and warmth, keeping energy high during key moments without ever feeling forced or cheesy. Announcements, transitions between reception segments, and crowd interaction all felt natural and celebratory.
If you're looking for a DJ who brings both technical craft and genuine crowd awareness to your event, look no further. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be, and his performance was a huge part of that.
