Sergio and his team at PEG were truly exceptional and I am so happy we booked them for our wedding! We had them do our ceremony music, our reception DJ , live sax player, and photo booth! Sergio worked with us every step of the way to make sure we had a package that worked for us. The dance floor was not empty for a single second of the night! The Sax player was a huge hit!

DJ Cam truly went above and beyond! As a bride who knows how to micromanage, I never felt that way with DJ Cam. He perfectly captured the music vibe my fiancé and I love and delivered an incredible performance. We wanted the music to naturally draw people to the dance floor without any emcee work, and DJ Cam nailed it with a fantastic set list. He avoided the typical "wedding-y" songs and created the party atmosphere we dreamed of. DJ Cam was super responsive via email, text, and phone, and his fun yet professional demeanor made everything smooth. He arrived early to set up and handle any potential challenges, ensuring a relaxed and enjoyable evening. We felt completely at ease knowing he had everything under control. DJ Cam is not your average DJ—he's the one to deliver an unforgettable party beat!

There aren't enough words in this world to describe how thoroughly satisfied we were with The DJ Experience. From the very beginning, they were super responsive when it came to my wants, needs and crazy ideas. Alex was super calming throughout the whole process, ensuring me that everyone would have a good time and to trust him. He did not disappoint. Everyone loved when we danced on the clouds, when I wanted a song mashup made for a special dance with my mom, he made it happen. My guests did not leave the dance floor the whole night. My MC, Darrell was out of this world. Never have I ever met an MC quite like him. He possibly had more energy than me and I have ALOT of energy. I 10/10 recommend using the DJ experience for your party needs. I promise you that you wont be disappointed.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Ocean Avenue Stompers are AMAZING. They were the band for our wedding in Asbury Park in August 2024, and we truly believe we had the best wedding band ever. From the start, we felt so lucky to have them as part of our special day. We worked closely with Ian throughout the planning process, and he was always so accommodating. When we were still in the decision phase, Ian was happy to hop on calls to talk through our vision and explain what the Stompers could offer. After seeing them live, it was a no-brainer for us. The energy they bring every time they perform is contagious, and it guarantees an incredibly fun time. After signing our contract, we met two times before our wedding day. Ian also sent us a questionnaire to keep all our ideas and plans organized. Ian was great at communicating with us throughout the process – despite being very busy with shows almost every night – and made sure the band would deliver the kind of party we dreamed of for our wedding. For our ceremony, we had three members of the band play, and they were amazing. Originally, we had only planned to have a guitarist, but after discussing the songs with Ian, he suggested adding the pianist and a trumpet player as well, which was a perfect combination. Ian then did a fantastic job DJ’ing and MC’ing our cocktail hour and dinner. Ian also worked closely with the venue to ensure the music flowed well through all the different spaces, which made a big difference. For the reception, we sent Ian a playlist with our general music vibe and right away he said he knew exactly what we were hoping for. We wanted the music to reflect the spirit of Asbury Park and steer clear of the typical wedding pop songs. The Stompers exceeded all expectations (which were already pretty high!). We had so much fun dancing the entire night and never left the dance floor because every song was one we wanted to hear. They kept the energy so high, making sure everyone, from our friends to our parents’ friends and family members, was having the best time. You could see it in the way all our guests were captivated by the band and smiling from ear to ear while watching them play. To this day, we are still getting compliments on the music and I’ve had many people tell me that next time we go to see the Stompers they want to come. The services we had were: 8 piece custom wedding band DJ add on Guitar / Piano / Trumpet Ceremony Services.

Jay absolutely made our wedding!! The dance floor was packed the entire time. He understood the vibes and read the room so well. Leading up to the day, Jay was super communicative — answering every question we had and keeping us on track to make sure every music detail was thought about. Plus, the app he provided for planning made song selection and special requests seamless, collaborative and super manageable! The DJ / instrumental fusion he offers brought the dance floor to the next level!

Ryan went above and beyond as our DJ. He helped organize the craziness of dinner before killing it on the table. The majority of our guests (we had a lot) either didn’t leave the dance floor or kept coming back! As the bride I only left to cool off then right back out to the best dancing songs he was playing. He narrated our guys vs girls flip cup game and even judged (girls won by default). All around an amazing job and I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a fun DJ who isn’t afraid to lend a hand and help get the job done, even if it’s a bit out of his job description. Thank you!
