We met Josh through another DJ, who actually ended up coordinating most of the planning leading up to our wedding. We met Josh once initially in the process, and loved his upbeat energy so that's why we booked him. I can't speak to how he would be if we were to have directly engaged with him in the planning process, but I can speak to his promptness, energy, and musical talents. He played every song we requested, did a great job emceeing the various toasts/speeches, and kept the energy going, despite many of our "older" guests bowing out early, leaving a sparse dance floor. While the whole day and night seem to be a blur at this point, we do remember dancing our a$$'s off, which is exactly what we wanted at the end of our wedding day!

ny crowd, keeping the energy up and never letting the vibe die. He’s always punctual, professional, and brings such a positive, fun presence to every event. The music is seamless, the atmosphere is always on point, and guests always ask who the DJ is. I will absolutely continue using him for all of my future events and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and talented.

Joshwayy was amazing from beginning to end! You could tell his priorities are to make sure guests have the best experience possible and have a good time, instead of it just being a...

nother job. The fluidity of music and allowing us to personalize what we wanted played, making specific cuts to songs needed for rehearsals the same day, flexibility with adjustments to the timeline due to rain, you name it! Even coming out on the dance floor with us! Our guests had nothing but compliments for Joshwayy and enjoyed him as our DJ. 100/10 phenomenal job. Loved having him as our wedding DJ.

A day after the birthday party that Josh DJ'd and we still have guests reaching out to us about how awesome he was with the music choices. I hired him for my wife's bday party and ...

nce floor was lit, all night!! Behind the scenes, Josh took requests from us for what we wanted played and not played. I felt like our experience was catered towards what we wanted, but also Josh has a way for feeling the vibe and altering the music to keep the dancing going. I cannot explain how impressed we were with him!! He nailed it!! do yourself a favor and book him!

DJ Joshwayy is absolutely OUTSTANDING. I literally didn’t leave the dance floor all night. He absolutely crushed every single aspect of our wedding. I felt like our music taste was...

all over the place (country, hip hop, alternative, r&b, pop) and he somehow made it all work together! It was really important to me to have a busy dance floor and he kept the party going all night long. There was never a dull moment!! He also listened to our do not play request perfectly. I am so impressed with Joshwayy and his ability to read a crowd. He even came out and danced with us. We got so many compliments on the music and the whole vibe and it was ALL HIM!! Incredible DJ you can absolutely not go wrong with choosing him for your event.

d brought the energy. Our guest loved our dj and couldn’t stop raving about how fun our wedding was. We are so happy with the service provided and anytime I need a dj I will book Josh 100%! It’s so hard to find a dj that brings to life what you want/vision and he did exactly that. I told him the genres we loved and what we didnt want and he followed through on everyone of our request. The lighting set up was so dope too. The morning after our wedding we had multiple messages asking who our dj was. He made our wedding day even more special! 100% recommend booking with Josh you won’t regret it :)

Josh & Stephanie were phenomenal! They went above and beyond for what we hired them for and helped make our day special. Stephanie, as our Day Of Coordinator, made sure everything ...

ran as smoothly as possible and even stayed later to make sure everyone got home safely. Josh, as the DJ, helped set up before the ceremony (which was not his job btw) and played all the right songs to make sure people were dancing. They were amazing and I would 1000% recommend them to ANYONE looking for a DJ and/or Day Of Coordinator.
