Fantastic dj

We couldn't have made a better choice than going with Zach for our day! From the moment he started playing to the end, he had the dance floor packed and made it impossible to leave with such good music. Throughout the process, he was the perfect mix of easygoing and professional - providing his input to make the day better. Simply put, if you want to have a stress-free DJ that you know is going to make your party a true 'PARTY', go with Zach :)

Excellent Wedding DJ

We got married at Rule of Thirds and DJ Kernsy was a recommended vendor. We looked at his website and were impressed by his portfolio. He was very communicative about what equipment was required, what songs we wanted, and overall we felt that he was easy to work with. We had asked for a playlist with a good millenial LGBT-friendly vibe with a fair amount of 80s throw-backs. All of our guests, young and old loved the songs and the dance floor was full the moment it was opened. We would definitely recommend Zach for your wedding!

Best dj ever!

I had the pleasure of working with Zach last fall for a wedding. The music was exclusively EDM for the dance floor, and it was the best party ever. Guest of all age ranges were up and dancing until the end of the night. He had seamless transitions and great song versions. His professionalism, experience, and understanding of music really shines. The entire experience was awesome, I only wish I had the playlist to bump in the car on my drive home. Choose DJ Kernsy for all your Brooklyn or Manhattan wedding dj needs, highly recommend!
