Geoff was a pivotal part of our wedding day. He made the planning process super easy and stress free. On the day of he kept the schedule moving without feeling rushed. I didn't have to keep track of time because he had everything on pace. He did our ceremony and reception. We gave him very little direction and he put together a killer playlist that was exactly what we'd imagined. Lovely person and excellent at his job. Absolutely would recommend.

l. We felt like we were his top priority through the whole process! When our ceremony day arrived, every single one of our vendors (who were from all over NY!), were so excited to see DeafGeoff from prior events they had worked with him! Definitely set a positive tone for the day. His DJ service was flawless throughout the ceremony and reception. Don't hesitate to book!

From the music we requested played throughout and atmosphere to the flow of the celebration, he listened to what was important to us and helped facilitate our wishes beautifully. We felt like our preferences genuinely mattered, and we were able to relax, enjoy ourselves, and celebrate our marriage exactly the way we had hoped. We had an amazing time, and so much of that was because of how smoothly and thoughtfully everything was handled. We are incredibly grateful for the care, flexibility, and effort that went into making our wedding such a joyful and memorable experience. We would absolutely recommend him to other couples!

o make our wedding day special. He was on time and so willing to accomodate all of our sound equipment needs, even considering the nasty weather that our outdoor wedding faced from the start. Most of all he was organized pre-wedding and during the wedding to keep things running as smooth as possible that day. Could not recommend him more!

d, he was on top of all the details, from mic and speaker locations to timing and vibes. The owner of the wedding venue later told us how easy he found Geoff to work with, and how impressed he was with Geoff's ability to nail the sound levels perfectly for the space (loud enough to lure people to the dancefloor; reasonable enough so that people on the side could still hang and chat). He worked with our requests and added his own flair on top, chopping and mixing songs and keeping the energy going. And his final song selection ended up creating one of the best moments of our wedding. So happy we went with DJ DeafGeoff. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you Geoff!!!

m the start, Geoff was communicative and organized. He had an already built music planner which made picking songs for each moment much easier. He was awesome with making announcements and keeping the flow going. I would 100% recommend him to anyone in the NY area for their DJ needs!

t he shared with us as soon as we booked him was honestly the guide/key to planning our whole special day. On the day of our wedding, he stayed in super close communication from the moment he arrived. He constantly checked in to make sure things are the way that we wanted them, and he even thought to make announcements that kept things organized and efficient - things that we would have never even thought of asking him to do. Your DJ is the backbone of your event, and you definitely can’t go wrong with Geoff!

Sahara H

DJ DeafGeoff is the best wedding DJ you can ask for. His booking process and pre-event practices are detailed yet simple and quick. During the big day he was professional, quick to...

act and adapt based on the guests and mood. Three of our guests (who have attended multiple weddings) all shared that they believed Geoff to be the BEST wedding DJ they have ever worked with / experienced. Most of all, his smile and personality make him an exceptional "plus one" to you wedding/event. I would work with Geoff 100 time over and if I ever need another DJ, I'm calling him first.

together seamlessly. If he wound up playing something that didn’t get the crowd going, he was able to shift gears and bring them back to the floor, and stick with a vibe that people were enjoying. For my wedding, we gave him a long list (probably too long) of songs we wanted to hear, and when we looked at the list afterwards, he hit every single one. On top of just being a great DJ, Geoff was also proactive about keeping the whole production running smoothly; like when he came to find me to tell me it was time for the speeches, cake cutting, etc. I never expected him to take charge of keeping our timeline for us, but I’m so glad he did. If you book Geoff for your wedding, it’s gonna be a great party so please send me an invite, I’ll pay for my plate. If you don’t book Geoff for your wedding, you’re missing out.
