Nicky really is such a great guy. So easy to talk and communicate with. The ceremony and reception was seemlass, thanks to him. We danced the whole time, to songs we had chosen, and Nicky had so amazingly mixed in, with others. Everyone, from my Grandparents to nieces and nephews, loved it!

Nicky is also such a very relaxing person to have around on your wedding day!
Nicky Wood DJ'd our ceremony and reception. He was so very helpful, in every way possible! When it came time for the reception, he was professional to the end and never was our dan...
ce floor empty. We've received numerous compliments from so many of our guests, on the fun that he provided. We gave him a small but essential playlist, that he played in full, at the perfect moments. So glad Nicky was our DJ!

A top class DJ, and such a joy to work with.
Thanks again Nicky
I was not happy with the experience that we had with DJ Nicky Wood. I spent so much time picking out my ceremony music and I couldn't hear it when I was walking down the aisle, whi...
ch was really disappointing. I thought the music was average, beyond what we asked to be played off our list. The part that really upset about me is that we heard from numerous guests that he was rude to them - when they would request songs he would respond with "absolutely not" or, "no, that song hasn't been played in 20 years." I just thought that was completely unnecessary and whether or not you play the song, there's a way that you talk to people.
Thanksfor the best day, and night ever! Nicky made it all so easy, stress-free and fun. We love to dance, Nicky kept us, and our families and friend on the dancefloor. We could not...
have had it any better. Nicky is such a great DJ!

on to keep the night on track. Nicky was responsive and very easy to get in touch with during the planning process.
Nicky Wood was AMAZING! He was easy to communicate with and helped keep our guests in the know. We told him we wanted and lively dance floor and he made it happen!! He exceeded our...
expectations and was very flexible when our timelines were set back, as our officiant did not show up. Nicky was incredibly nice and definitely helped calm nerves during a stressful time. He played all the right music. We HIGHLY recommend Nicky! Go Spurs!!!!
Nicky was absolutely great at our wedding in Trumansburg, NY in July. We were nervous about hiring a DJ we didn't know, as a lot of our friends are musicians and DJs, but we couldn...
't have found a better option! We enjoyed working through the process with him and deciding what sort of music we wanted him to play. He completely understood what sort of vibe we were going for and kept everyone dancing all night long.
Thank you so much Nicky for making our night more memorable. We'll be in touch when we're ready to renew our vows :)
Nicky was absolutely perfect! He made our wedding so incredibly special, my (now) wife as well as most of our guests spent most of the night on the dance floor. He also helped us f...
ind a track she wanted to sing and was extremely accommodating with everything.
Best decision, specially if you’re a fan of 80’s music and don’t want a super traditional reception.
Nicky was great! We didn’t give him much to go off of, but he played good dancing classics that appealed to everyone in our varied crowd and everyone said they loved the music. We ...
had a blast! My only little critique was the first dance song between the bride and father went on a little long, but it all worked out! If you like good classics, and don’t want any cheesy stuff Nicky is a great choice!
Nicky's performance as our DJ was flawless. From the start, he was a pleasure to communicate with. He did an outstanding job integrating our requests with his playlist. He even pur...
chased new lapel mics for our officiant to use. His dancing playlist was so good, our guests literally COULDNT stop dancing. In fact, one of my friend and colleagues' told me she hadn't seen her husband dance at a wedding in the last 10 years. He danced at ours! We can't thank Nicky enough for the incredible job he did making our wedding great for us and our guests.
Nicky is the consummate professional. His music is seamless and cuts across all genres and he gets everybody up and dancing all night long.
The whole party went so smoothly. Ni...
cky has a wonderful personality and he just made our night unforgettable. We will always cherish our memories of the night he was our DJ. Nicky and David are a fine team. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Nicky was amazing? We had an amazing party after my wedding, he was very responsable, he used the list of Latino songs I gave him, and he did a great combination of them. Everyone ...
enjoy and love him! Thanks Nicky
Nicky was just what we wanted for our wedding! He played a great mix to appeal to all of our guests, young and old, and kept the dance floor packed till the end of the night. He an...
d his assistant David were so nice and professional, and did a great job keeping our reception on track. They even went beyond what we had originally asked for and helped us play the music for our ceremony since we held it in the same place (and they arrived with plenty of time). Nicky made announcements at key points during the reception without overdoing it, and was funny without being cheesy or gimmicky. He was very accommodating and communicative during the planning process, even though we ended up not giving him too much guidance since we were so busy with other things. He picked the perfect times to play the few songs we requested, and made great selections to keep the crowd happy for the rest of the night. Nicky was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ!
Thank you so very much Nicky!
Our day was the closest to perfection, that we could have wished for.
You are such an incredible DJ, mixing our requests, with the songs that kept eve...
ryone dancing until the end. You were so easy to get along with too, you kept our nerves and stress levels at an all time low.
We, our family, and friends would love to have that night all over again. We loved it!
A big thanks to your assistant, David, too. He was so good at keeping us on top of those key moments in the day.

Music was one of the things that my fiancé and I cared the most about while planning out wedding. Nicky Wood was highly recommended to us by our wedding planner, and we are so hap...
py that we followed her recommendation. Aside from being kind, interesting and professional - Nicky is EXCEPTIONAL at his job ! Nicky and his assistant met with us several times before our wedding and listened carefully to our wants and needs. He took the time to understand who we are and the vibe we wanted, which was so important to me. During our wedding, Nicky played song after song that we (and our guests) loved. He read the room and kept the party going consistently. My Mom, who is hard to please musically, said there was not ONE THING she would have changed. In fact, she was about to board the party bus to go home as she heard the last song of the night come on. She got off the bus and ran back to the dance floor. As master of ceremonies, Nicky is not tacky or overly showy in any way. He adds just the right amount of direction and personality to keep the events of the evening moving. We had so many compliments from guests saying that this was the most fun wedding they had ever been to, and a huge part of that is thanks to Nicky and Dave. If you're looking for your wedding DJ, you found him!
Nicky Wood was amazing! My husband and I got married in Lake Placid on 8/18 and we were looking for a DJ who could accommodate our slightly different wedding vibe. We had a very re...
laxed, bohemian ceremony and we wanted our music choices to reflect that. Nicky loved our ideas and created the perfect atmosphere for our wedding. His communication throughout the planning process was excellent and we loved meeting him and his sidekick David on our wedding day. We knew Nicky would be the 'one' when he told us he's from the UK - my husband and I currently live in England and we were so happy to a have a piece of 'home' with us on our wedding day! Thank you for an amazing night, Nicky!!
Nicky Wood is an amazing and fabulous DJ!!! We all loved him, he helped make our wedding awesome. He was professional, personable, and an all around great guy. You can’t do bett...

We loved having Nicky DJ our wedding, and all of our guests had a fantastic time. Nicky is very easygoing and a delight to work with. It was good to discuss ahead of time all the t...
hings that needed to happen during the reception, and even when we got a bit delayed with our dinner/toasting/photograph schedule, Nicky was very adaptable and kept everything running smoothly. The music selection was on point as well. We sent some song suggestions, and Nicky arranged them expertly, while also throwing some great tracks we hadn’t thought of. We couldn’t have chosen a better DJ!
DJ Nicky, was easy to work with and accommodating with special request. He visited the site in advance to discuss details, which I really appreciated. He was professional and our g...

Nicky was spectacular. He was personable, communicative and great to work with. He knew just how to keep the dance floor full of happy people - responding to the room and choos...
ing amazing songs. He was kind enough to review a list of favorite songs and played as many as he could - and even better - would not play any songs I included in a "Please do not" list! Everyone had a great time at the party and the dancing continued enthusiastically until midnight. :)
From the moment my wife and I booked Nicky, we knew we didn’t have to worry about the music at our wedding or reception. That faith was well placed. The music and timing was perfec...
tly timed and made the whole ceremony run seamless. The well picked music at the reception was perfect for all ages and people danced until the last minute. We could not be happier that we picked Nicky and recommend him to anyone that is getting married.
Wow!!! So, my Dad does NOT dance. At least we all thought that he didn't, because my whole family, Mom included, had never seen it. Then he met DJ Nicky Wood, and danced the night ...
