You will not regret working with them!

I do not have enough words to explain how much you NEED to work with Instant Request We just had our wedding this past Sunday and it was amazing! The most important thing that we were looking for in a DJ was someone who would be comfortable mixing music for multiple cultures. My family is Ghanian so we wanted to make sure our dance floor had something for everybody. ALSO, they have karaoke which has always been something I've dreamed of having at my wedding! We worked with Jack Danielson and he exceeded our expectations. He was able to blend karaoke and dancing without any issues and overall he was just a great personality. If your on the fence, please let this be the review that tips you over to book with them. You will not regret it!

5 star wedding DJ

DJ Jimmy was a wonderful addition to our wedding day! He was professional and handled the logistics seamlessly. During our virtual meeting before the wedding, his expertise was evident, and we felt confident in his ability to manage the ceremony and reception music. Jimmy was also very personable, aligning his music selections perfectly with our preferences and vision. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ!

We highly recommend!

We worked with Tom at Instant Request DJ Entertainment for our wedding in September, and we could not have been any happier! He did a great job of communicating with us quickly and making the process so easy! He had everyone out on the dance floor dancing the whole night! We highly recommend!
