    Incredible Experience! Definitely Recommend!

    My wife and I had the privilege of partnering with DJ Squirrel for our wedding earlier this month and we couldn.t be happier! We had the opportunity to work with him throughout the year to put together a playlist as well as structure interactive activities throughout our wedding reception. It was truly a magical day and that is thanks to Dave aka DJ Squirrel! We truly appreciated his attention to detail, responsiveness, and care for our wedding. It was like working with a dear friend the entire way! Our family and friends were blown away at the professionalism, presentation, sound quality, lighting, and overall layout of everything! We definitely recommend DJ Squirrel and will be lifetime customers!

    DJ Squirrel Brings the PARTY!!

    If you are familiar with the bar/club scene in Northern VA and Washington DC, chances are you have been to a venue where DJ Squirrel is at the booth. We were familiar with DJ Squirrel from an event we experienced many years ago and then tracked him down because we KNEW he would be the perfect wedding DJ for us. DJ Squirrel has some of the best skills we have ever heard with his blends/transitions and vast library of music in any style you can imagine. And even if you aren't as familiar with DJ-terminology but just love all-around good music, all you need to know is that DJ Squirrel WILL deliver an individualized, entertaining experience tailored to your taste, vibe, and guests. He is extremely professional, kind, creative, and full of great ideas. He listens, offers options, and is available whenever needed throughout the planning process (which we know can be a bit challenging and stressful!). He's also an EXPERT emcee, keeping all the signature elements on track throughout the night (ceremony music, speeches, parent dances, wedding party intros, bouquet toss - he does it all!!)
    Oh, and about the "party" I mentioned in the title -- DJ Squirrel has some of the BEST equipment, lights, speakers, glow sticks - anything you can imagine to transform your reception space into your own personalized dance club. If you prefer something more low-key, he would still be an amazing choice for your wedding thanks to his variety of experience and adaptability.
    Oh, and he will even bring a Photobooth on site, complete with an attendant. He truly can do it all, and does!! I cannot say enough about how much fun it was working with DJ Squirrel. He was a huge reason why all our guests had an absolute BLAST at our wedding. Everyone stayed on the dance floor, kids went crazy with the coolest glow sticks I've ever seen, and he made our every request come true!! THANK YOU DJ SQUIRREL!!!

    Wedding at Amber Grove

    DJ Squirrel was everything we wanted for our big day. He included everything we asked and had everything we needed/wanted ready. He was very responsive and detailed. You always worry your wedding may be boring but let’s just say, we didn’t want the party to end. The dance floor was always open and a great space for dancing/fun. We didn’t want the night to end and a-lot of that has to do with this DJ. We had so much fun and so did our guests-highly recommend!

    DJ Squirrel is the best!

    DJ Squirrel did a truly wonderful job! He handled our ceremony and reception music as well as lighting and did a fantastic job on everything. He was always prompt and professional and made our reception loads of fun. The dance floor was never empty, many of the guests remarked that this was the most they had danced at a wedding in a long time. We attended a friend’s vow renewal several months later and they told us they used our wedding for their inspiration when planning their event because they had so much fun at ours, they said a large part of that was the DJ and atmosphere. Our ceremony was outdoors at night in December on some historic ruins, DJ Squirrel impressed me so much with the lighting. My bridal party told me later there was a bit of a last minute hurdle when it was apparent the lighting wouldn’t be enough to guide guests to their seats; DJ Squirrel was awesome and worked with the venue to get some of their haunted wine tour lights out of storage. The effect was so memorable and atmospheric, I remember being so pleasantly stunned when I walked out and saw it. You won’t regret choosing DJ Squirrel, he will make your event so much fun! 🎉🥂

    The best of both worlds with DJ Squirrel

    We used DJ Squirrel for both our ceremony and reception music. I can't thank him enough for his flexibility and willingness to coordinate with our band as well; the two alternated playing music to keep the party going and our friends and family LOVED it! We also love that he mixes his music and only plays the best parts of songs, so we got to hear a good portion of our playlist. It was an awesome evening, and I highly recommend working with DJ Squirrel if you want to have a party!

    Very responsive and Easy to Work With DJ

    Working with David (DJ Squirrel) was truly a pleasure. He was very easy to communicate with and knows what he is doing. He made our wedding night very fun and special. Everyone had a great time during our wedding and even after the wedding was over everyone kept mentioning how the DJ was so great and the music was great!

    Great to work with, flexible and very helpful

    DJ Squirrel was super responsive and very flexible. He helped us go through and pick our songs for the ceremony as well as assisted myself(the groom) as I created a surprise dance for my wife. Great to work with and kept the party going. Highly recommend DJ Squirrel!!!

    100% recommend DJ Squirrel! He help keep our day full of energy and on Que!

    David is such a great DJ. He was so easy to work with, extremely responsive and really nice and positive. We had three separate areas that needed music during our wedding and he set up for all seamlessly. I was so on point with the ceremony music and mic set up. At the reception, he played great hits from the genre we requested and made sure it was a fun vibe and energy was up! He also traveled all the way up to Carlisle PA for us and didn’t skip a beat. Thanks David!!

    Amazing DJ!

    We were so happy to have worked with DJ Squirrel for our December wedding! After many of our friends who recently got married booked him and we got to experience his DJ style, we knew he would be the perfect fit for our wedding! David was professional, timely, responsive, friendly, and most importantly kept the dance floor packed the entire night! Our guests raved about what a great time they had and how they hadn't been to a wedding that partied like that in so long. David provided music for the reception, up lighting that we were able to customize, falling snowflakes on the barn walls, plenty of additional lighting, and a tv display of a slide show of pictures that we put together that ran the entire reception. After our wedding, some additional friends booked him they enjoyed his work so much. We couldn't recommend DJ Squirrel more!

    Hire now! You won’t regret it!

    Hello future wedding couples - you found your DJ! David was amazing to work with throughout the wedding planning. Professional, calm, and organized - everything I needed!! At the reception, David had impeccable timing and style for the music we gave him (he provided us a questionnaire and it was very straight forward to fill out). He played all the songs we wanted and knew how to get the party started. Many of the guests complimented on the music vibes! Hands down would love to work with him again and you all should too!! Thank you to David for the perfect unforgettable night! :)

    DJ Squirrel is amazing!

    DJ Squirrel was great to work with from beginning to end. Very professional and has a laid back personality. He works with you to get every detail on what you want for your event. He’s also great at adjusting on the fly to keep things going. At our wedding, we ended up running over during pictures and DJ Squirrel didn’t miss a beat on keeping the reception running smoothly. We got the package that included the photo booth as well, which was a big hit with guests. He helped us to design our frames and made sure we were happy with every detail. All of the equipment was high quality and he definitely knows how to read the crowd vibes for songs. We definitely recommend Squirrel for any event that you want to be a great time!

    Williams-Watson Wedding

    DJ Squirrel was amazing. He has a vast knowledge of music and really understands the crowd and what they want and at the right
    time. He met everyones music needs and he did an exceptional job on navigating not only the reception but the wedding service as well. He has first class equipment and is very professional in his demeanor. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

    BEST DJ in Northern Virginia!!!

    We picked DJ Squirrel for our wedding day, and it was the best decision. He was so responsive throughout the entire process and helped set an atmosphere for a really fun time. DJ Squirrel worked with us to pick several "must have" songs for the reception, and he didn't miss a single one. The ceremony was run so smoothly and professionally - we were so pleased! He was even able to cut the music so the song started at our favorite part of the song as we said "I do." DJ Squirrel was so friendly, professional, responsive, and willing to help make out day so special. He even allowed several different set ups since for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We have nothing but good things to say about DJ Squirrel. If you are thinking of hiring him, DO IT!

    Professional, fun DJ

    Sound choice was great. Communication was great. I had lots of questions and changed my mind a few times and David was good with it. He even was nice even to show my 3 year old daughter how he works the dj booth. Highly recommended.

    Gave us what we were looking for and more

    DJ Squirrel was very easy to work with and can give you what you’re looking for. Whatever we asked for or came up with he was able to provide, such as a video of our ceremony to play the DAY OF the wedding for our guests to see at the reception. He also provided a great photo booth with a ton of options and way more up lighting than the venue could provide. Not only was he attentive, but the music choice was great and our guests mentioned how great the DJ was. Would definitely recommend for future events, very down to earth and reasonable.

    DJ Squirrel MADE our wedding!

    DJ Squirrel was with us through the whole journey of postponing our 2020 wedding to 2021! He was very flexible and understanding. He did such an amazing job listening to our style and what we wanted that the dance floor was full ALL NIGHT. The next day we had so many people saying how great he was and one of our friends even booked him for their wedding in 2022! He is the best out there!

    One of best vendors we could ask for

    We met David at a friend's wedding last year and loved everything about what he did. We were very excited when we found out he had a photo booth as well(Our guests couldn't get enough of it). He made the entire process so smooth from day 1. He communicated with us through out on everything answering any questions we had. We strongly recommend David for anyone looking for a DJ for their wedding.

    Simply the Best!!

    5 Starts service! If that is what you want for your next event, party, or reception then you can put all your worries aside when you choose DJ Squirrel! We had hired him and his team for our Wedding in October 2020 and they were amazing. Very professional, easy to work with, and his team were very responsive to special request and adherence to COVID-19 restrictions at the time. I highly recommend!

    THE BEST! Used for ceremony music, up-lighting and after party!

    DJ Squirrel is the best! Where do I start…

    He is one of the kindest guys around! I contacted him for our wedding reception and despite we were also having a wedding band, I knew we also needed DJ Squirrel! He did the ceremony music and set up which was executed perfectly. Both my mom and father-in-law commented how he was so helpful making sure everyone was set up with microphones and knew where they were. He also provided the uplightling for the ballroom. He worked with my wedding coordinator seamless as they found the perfect shade that really transformed the room. And then last but not least the after party!!! DJ squirrel did a 2 hour after party that was so much fun! The uplighting changed colors which was so fun, and he put on the perfect playlist. He knows just how to read a party! Not the first time I have hired him for an event and I sure hope it won’t be the last!!

    Amazing! Will use again

    I would highly recommend using him!! He does an awesome job at making your wedding exactly what you want! I told him that I wanted people dancing the whole time.... and that exactly what he made happen the dance floor was never empty! He communicates well and is very organized. I cannot wait to have another event so I can use him again!

    Amazing!

    Squirrel is the best DJ you will ever have. He is thorough, professional, and attentive. He made sure to go over ever little detail that we would want a song for. We even had someone singing while I walked down the aisle and he coordinated beautifully with them. Best you will find.

    Mr. and Mrs. Naff

    He was wonderful to work with! At the last minute, like 10 days away from our wedding, our first DJ bailed on us. He was highly recommended, and when we reached out last minute, he quickly picked up the prices and did an amazing job! We were able to FaceTime with him, and give specifics, such as songs and genres. He reached out with a playlist and kept us in loop through the whole process. If I had a question or song change, I was able to text with him and he would respond quickly. At the wedding, he was beyond what any of us could have expected. I would a hundred times recommend DJ Squirrel! You will not be disappointed!
