    Professional and very intuitive

    Tom was the only dj that I contacted that gave me a real, genuine, non-"canned" response when I inquired about services. Not only that, he was very responsive leading up to my wedding, and was even able to get the exact version of our first dance song that I wanted. He was professional, brought us water while we were in the receiving line, always checking to see if we needed anything, and in general really helpful all around. He was very intuitive and good at reading the crowd, as well. He created the exact atmosphere we were looking for during each part of the evening, and seemed to know EXACTLY when to speed things up, slow it down, and make announcements. We were extremely pleased and so glad we hired Tom!

    DJ Tooth was such a great addition to our wedding day! He was organized, fun, and calming during all of the craziness that comes with an event like this. He did a great job keeping things running smoothly and making sure everyone was having a great time, including my husband and I! Thanks so much for being a part of our day!

    Tom was incredible. From day 1 he let us know he was available if we ever needed anything and even emailed us to check in on our planning to see how things were going. The suite of music he played is still being raved about! He made everything run smoothly and I cannot say enough great things! If you're looking to have a wedding where you don't have to worry about what's next, what to play, or how things should flow, HIRE TOM. He is outstanding!

    We loved DJ Tooth!!! All of our guests raved about Tom, and rightfully so! Tom seamlessly transitioned songs, and played to the energy on the dance floor. We were originally looking for a DJ in the sub $1,000 range, but decided to open up our options for better-rated DJs (like Tom). I am SO happy that we did. Tom made himself available by email and phone (we planned our wedding from afar), and was prepared to handle everything on the day-of. I remember telling my husband on the wedding day that I appreciated how involved Tom was during the reception. I did not have a wedding planner, so Tom took on the task of making sure the speeches happened on time, and also coordinated the timing of the first dances, and cake-cutting. Tom gave us a fantastic suggestion about the timing of the cake cutting too, based on his vast experience. He was friendly, fun, and easy to work with! My husband also wanted me to give a shout-out to Tom for finding an incredible acoustic version of "Present Tense" by Radiohead, that fit the vibe better with the other requested songs. My husband had a lot of specific songs in mind that he wanted to play, and Tom had them all ready-to-go, in a perfect order for the night. Hands down, one of our BEST wedding vendors! We would 100% recommend him to ANY couple!

    Tom was an incredible DJ. Everyone at our wedding raved about him. He is a great personality to have at a reception. He does more than just play music.

    Tom was so great, I can't even say enough!! I booked him last minute based on previous reviews. Never even met with him because it was literally about 2 weeks before the wedding (shot gun wedding :-)!) Everything turned out perfectly. He asked what songs I wanted and didn't want, and throughout the wedding I heard everything that I mentioned. I wasn't even sure if anyone would even dance the night of my wedding, so when he asked, I said go for it - he turned up the tunes a little, and a group of us went on the dance floor and had SO much fun!! He played the fun songs that everyone knows the words to, so dancing around and singing to one another was how the night went. He carried the flow of the evening seamlessly, even when the microphone stopped working!

    Hiring DJ Tooth was ABSOLUTELY the best decision we made during our entire wedding planning process. After meeting with him, we didn't need to talk to any other DJ. He understood exactly what we wanted and was on the same page with us from the start. Both of us coming from an Italian family, we wanted to have some Italian music played and I was a little nervous because they aren't traditional wedding songs - he had absolutely no problems finding any of the music and everything we asked to have played was. Our biggest critic (my grandfather) was so happy with our music selection. Our best man planned (as a surprise to us) to have DJ Tooth play homemade music made by my husband during the best man toast and he played it again later on in the evening. It was our favorite part of the day and we are still getting compliments on how funny it was. The other thing that we were so happy about was his kindness and generosity during the entire night. He continuously checked on us to see if we needed anything and to make sure we were having a good time. I will suggest him to any friend getting married and I already have. If you are still looking for a DJ - call Tom. He is the best!!

    I was referred to DJ Tooth by another DJ who I'd planned on hiring/already sent a deposit to. I didn't do a lot of research, because I was so over the whole vendor hiring process by then, and decided that his recommendation was good enough for me.

    I feel so lucky that we hired Tom. He was awesome. He had all our chosen songs plus he played a great variety throughout the night that kept the dance floor busy. He was also extremely helpful and seemed very concerned that my husband and I had a great night. From our first meeting, where he was keeping us updated on the rain moving through the area (our reception was outside) to the dinner where he told us to let him know if he could get us anything to the actual music and entertainment... We couldn't have asked for anyone better.

    DJ Tooth was recommended to us by a friend! He was amazing, fun to work with and kept the party going! During the wedding reception he made sure everyone knew when the bridal party dance was going to be and kept everything on schedule. There were not awkward moments between songs and he made the night go by smoothly! I would recommend DJ Tooth to any Bride as her reception DJ!

    Great music for our wedding

    Tom was great to work with & we got so many compliments about our music choices thanks to him. He was very open to what we wanted and played most of the songs we requested. He did a great job reading the crowd and getting people on the dance floor. He was very helpful on the day of our wedding, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day knowing he had everything taken care of.
