  Best DJ Ever!

  I recommended DJ Brendan to a close friend for her wedding and I was thrilled at the job he did. The music was great, the lighting was beautiful, and he was so entertaining on the mic (not over the top mind you). I'd recommend Brendan to anyone needing a top quality DJ.

  Great value & Great music!

  My husband and I were married in Feb 2019 and absolutely loved having Brendan as our DJ! His music was absolutely perfect and he knew exactly what song to play next to keep everyone on the dance floor. Many of my wedding guests were competitive dancers, and they were so pleased with the music selection too.
  
  Another really fantastic thing about Brendan is that he brings so much lighting and equipment for the perfect ambiance. Our venue put us in contact with a lighting company, but they were insanely expensive! Brendan was able to provide the same lighting set up for a fraction of that price.
  
  Unfortunately it rained on our day. Brendan was fast and efficient when moving his equipment from the uncovered dance floor to the wide hallway where we ended up holding the reception. His flexibility and quick reaction meant that our reception was able to still begin on time.
  
  Thanks Brendan, you were great!

  Great wedding experience

  Brendan was professional, yet very personable as well. He stayed on top of things and helped as our “wedding planner” in getting things organized. Our reception was so fun. He knew when to have things calm, and when and how to get everyone on the dance floor. All of our guests commented about how great he was and very personalized to our family’s wishes! I would recommend him highly.

  Wedding on 9/1/18

  Brendan came to our rehearsals and spent time with my wife and I over the phone before we were married and made all of our details come together quite well for our wedding service. He spent extra time on our service the night before our wedding because there was a lot going on but him and his team did a great job with sound cues, lighting, and other music sound helps that made my wedding great.

  Professional, peppy, and perfect

  Brendan was easy to work with during our wedding. His gregarious nature and professionalism made that area of the wedding stress free. I recommend Brendan for your next event!

  We hired Brendan for our daughter's wedding reception and were extremely pleased. Brendan was very professional, he listened carefully to our wishes and perfectly customized the evening to make it the magical night our daughter had dreamed of. Brendan followed the schedule we gave him and ran the entire event seamlessly, so we were able to relax and enjoy the evening with our family and friends. The lighting was especially beautiful and I loved how he was able to control and change the lights to fit the mood of each aspect of the evening. Highly recommended!

  Brendan was great! He took care of our music for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. He also provide great lighting. He spent a significant amount of time discussing our music preferences with us and ensuring we got the wedding we wanted.

  Brendan made our wedding a night to remember. Thanks to his thoughtful planning, we did not have to worry about anything befofe or during the ceremony and the reception. He guided us every step of the way. The playlist that he put together was exactly what we wanted and kept everyone on the dance floor having a great time. The lighting complemented our theme and really helped bring the ambiance together. We really couldn't have asked for a better experience!

  I do wedding planning for friends and family and have worked with 5 different DJs in my experience. I've also lived in Tampa Bay and attended well over 20 weddings in this area over the last decade. NO ONE compares to the level of service received from Brendan. Aside from extreme professionalism including timeliness, preparedness, knowledge, and A/V skills, I have to say that I've NEVER worked with a DJ that PERSONALIZED the experience more to the desires and requirements of the bride and groom. This man immediately understood the dynamics of the wedding size, wedding party and family considerations, and totally tailored the experience to exceed their expectations. I would recommend Brendan above all that I have worked with personally along with anyone else I have observed in the Tampa Bay area.

  Brendan is great! He was very accommodating and kept in touch with us leading up to the wedding. He was very flexible with payment/deposit, etc. He managed the timeline of our reception very well and kept the guests on track (announcing speeches, prayer, food, etc). I left a lot of flexibility in music choices up to him and every single song was right on par with what you would want to play at a traditional wedding. He was very professional during the entire process and event.

  DJ Brendan was wonderful for our wedding. We had many specific songs we wanted with very detailed intros, and he totally worked with us. He read our crowd well, making sure to fill the needs of our group in each moment. The sound was great and he was a lot of fun. He was willing to talk as much as we wanted or had intros/instructions for him to give, but he definitely was not a microphone hog. His rates are reasonable and he really cared about making our wedding special. I would totally recommend DJ Bren to any of my friends!
