    An absolute must have DJ!

    DJ Lou helped make our wedding a 10/10 experience. He was on point with his transitions, allowed us to change things around last minute, and threw down on all the music he played. I would recommend to anyone and I hope you hire him for your next event!!!

    The best dj ever!

    Lou was amazing. I haven't stopped hearing about how much fun our DJ was since our big day. The DJ was the vendor I was most nervous about booking, and he made it such an easy and laid back experience. He made sure the dance floor was always full of people and was very receptive to requests and no play songs/artists/genres. His set up was very aesthetically pleasing and did not feel out of place or like an eyesore during our ceremony and turned into party central for the reception. I would 100% recommend him for any of your DJ needs.

    Let First Choice DJ be your first choice

    When we started planning for our wedding, our search for a DJ was tough. We had met/talked with about 4-5 DJs at that point and none of them really resonated with us and our personalities. Our last DJ "interview" was with Lou from First Choice, and we immediately clicked with him. He's extremely friendly and will do whatever to make your happy day even happier. We bothered him a lot with random requests and custom work and he never hesitated or seemed over it.
    The actual wedding though is a completely different story. Most of our friends are introverts and don't really dance, but that dance floor was BUMPING thanks to Lou and his amazing song choices and his ability to read the room. He also pretty much took every song request from our guests without redundancy, even if the song wasn't available to him at the moment, he found a way to play the requested song.
    Lou is truthfully one of a kind and if you are looking for an amazing DJ, him and his company should be your first choice.

    The best dj ever!

    Outstanding experience!!! Lou truly went above and beyond for our wedding. We used his services for both the ceremony and reception and it was absolutely worth it! He was an incredibly easy vendor to work with, was super responsive and has a seamless process! And his booth/set up was amazing! It was so cool, clean and professional without distracting from the rest of our decor. Lou thought of all the little things for us, answered all our questions, gave great suggestions and made our wedding day perfect! Would absolutely recommend First Choice DJ again and again and again!!

    Absolutely amazing!

    From our initial meetings leading up to the dance floor, Lou was absolutely amazing to work with! He was able to accommodate all our music selections and made the process very easy and stress-free! Everyone was dancing at our wedding! I highly recommend Lou for your next dancing event!

    Best DJ experience I have ever had!

    I had the best experience with Lou for my wedding, and he honestly exceeded any expectations I had! Because of him, my wedding went so smooth and everything was on schedule. He made it so fun, and was very interactive! I was so blessed to have him as our DJ, and he played all our songs we wanted played... played certain songs at the right time, & was very organized! He really cares, and wants you to have your perfect wedding! I would recommend him to anyone!

    Wedding of our dreams!

    I knew when hiring Lou I was getting a great quality DJ but he exceeded all my expectations. He was very hands on during the planning stages and made sure to cover all the bases. I can say that our day would not have been the same without Lou. He played to the crowd and made the special touches to the events during the reception. In the following months after our wedding I had a lot of guests ask how we found that DJ. I would recommend this DJ to all of my friends and family and stand next to that recommendation. If u want a DJ that will make ur day as special and to run like a well choreographed play this is your guy! Thank you Lou for making my wife and my day perfect!

    First Choice DJ - BEST DJ!

    First Choice DJ (Lou) was amazing to work with! He accommodated all our music selections (even a very specific request) and made everything so easy for my fiancé and I. Everyone was dancing and raved about how great Lou was after the wedding. I highly recommend Lou for your next event!

    Felt the music so hard

    Lou absolutely killed it at our wedding. We didn’t want the typical wedding songs you would usually hear at a wedding...we were looking for something VERY specific. He was incredibly patient and accommodating with me as I sent him probably over 50 songs as sort of a “inspiration list” for him to go off of. I’m so glad I trusted him to do my wedding....he played my favorite songs from my list (didn’t miss a single one) and added a bunch of other music that was exactly on par with what I was looking for. When the dance started, it was just me and my one other friend on the dance floor, after about 15 minutes the floor was full and stayed full the entire night. The night went SO FAST and Lou played probably the biggest role in helping achieve the vibes I was looking for at my reception. He has so much fun while he’s DJing too...and it just adds to the overall feel of the dance - everyone was feeling the music. I highly highly recommend Lou...he knows how to throw a party, he’s kind and fun, he’s accommodating, and goes out of his way to make sure you have the reception you want. Thank you so much Lou!!

    Brian & his wife both deejay, but we had Brian do our wedding b/c my husband preferred a male. Brian worked with us on music selections (he has an extensive library) & let us bring our own music if he didn't have it. He also worked with me so I could surprise my husband by singing to him. Brian did the ceremony music for us as well, because I had very specific songs from a movie I wanted playing while everyone was seated & when I walked down the aisle. He was energetic, friendly, & very easy to work with. That's important b/c the whole flow of the reception was determined by us & Brian, since he announces everything.

    We ended up having the wife end of of this husband and wife team as our DJ. She was really nice and did a good job. However, we met with the husband end of the team and worked solely with him before our wedding. He was VERY unprofessional, annoying, and I would definitely have been upset if he'd been at our wedding.
