    We chose Andrew to DJ our wedding because we loved that he offered to play live piano. He was absolutely wonderful! Andrew played the piano for the ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and then switched to DJing for the remainder of the reception. We relied on his expertise in helping to choose both the piano music and reception music, and are so glad we did. He knew what to play to keep our guests out on the dance floor. We received so many compliments from our guests about how wonderful our DJ was. Everyone thought the live piano was beautiful, and had a blast out on the dance floor during the reception. We highly recommend Andrew to anyone looking for an amazing wedding DJ! - Renée & Mark 9/17/17

    Andrew is an amazing DJ!

    Having a good DJ at your wedding can make or break the night - and Andrew truly did make our wedding! We immediately were drawn to him since he plays the piano in addition to DJing and we knew it would be a really nice added touch to our ceremony (it was!!) After speaking to him for the first time, we knew we were a good match and felt he was understanding, patient, flexible, calming and very organized! We are so glad we used Andrew as he executed the day perfectly - from bringing all the highest quality equipment, to working with the venue and other vendors, to leading the guests seamlessly through the evening and then keeping them on the dance floor for the whole night - he does it all! He does a great job at reading the room and the crowd and we still have guests raving about the music at our wedding!

    Awesome Wedding DJ & Live Pianist!!

    I would highly recommend Andrew Westphal for all of your live piano and DJ needs! We hired him to do live piano at our ceremony and cocktail hour, and then transition into DJ'ing for our reception and he absolutely crushed it! Our guests loved the ambience he was able to set for the ceremony and cocktail hour, and he was able to easily accommodate our requests for specific songs for our walk down the aisle (it seems like he could probably learn just about anything you could want!). 
    Then for the DJ'ing he was a perfect MC, bringing the energy and knowing when to talk and when to let the music flow. Planning was a cinch with Andrew -- after a few phone calls to get to know each other and filling out a sheet with some music themes or vibes he took it all from there and let us focus on just enjoying our day. His ability to do both the live music and DJ'ing at such a high level was great logistically for us as well -- one less vendor to coordinate for the big day!
    All in all, if you're looking for live piano, a fantastic DJ, or both -- Andrew's your guy!

    Expert DJ and pianist!

    Andrew was the DJ at our wedding this past weekend. He is so talented with what you do. Our guests were raving about his piano playing during cocktail hour and how fun the dancing was. He really helped us to maintain the flow of the night and hit all of the important parts of our wedding timeline seamlessly! We so enjoyed working with him! Andrew also Was the DJ for my brother’s wedding and both were a blast. He’s been a hit time and time again. Andrew, we can’t thank you enough. Pleasure working with you!

    Amazing DJ

    Stop what you are doing and hire Andrew for your upcoming event! Andrew DJ/MC our September 2022 wedding and was super responsive, professional, and fun! We hired Andrew based on all the 5 star ratings and after our first conversations with him we immediately booked him. Andrew played piano for the ceremony and cocktail hour then switched over to his DJ equipment for our reception. He had everything you need for a full ceremony and reception including mics and up lighting! We had a small handful of must play songs for the reception and let Andrew do his thing, and he did not disappoint! Our dance floor was packed the entire 4 hours of dancing- he just knows how to feed the crowd and played songs that even kept the older folks going as well. Several months later and we still have guests raving about how great the DJ was. I cannot recommend Andrew enough.

    Hire Andrew Now!

    Reach out to Andrew before someone scoops him up for your wedding date! Not only does he do a fantastic job as a DJ reading the room and keeping the dance party vibes going all night, but also the value he brings in being able to play live piano makes working with him a no brainer. We gave him some non-traditional wedding ceremony songs we wanted and he played them on his electric piano (which sounds like the real thing!) It made the ceremony extra special to have live music without having to pay for separate live musicians. Our venue also had a Steinway grand piano that he played during dinner. His prices are already great just for DJing, but adding in the live music makes it an incredible deal. Thank you, Andrew, for making our wedding a truly unforgettable night!

    Hire Andrew!!!!

    If my husband and I could give one piece of advice to those planning a wedding, it would be to HIRE ANDREW!!!! He is so exceptionally talented and skilled, and will truly create such a fun atmosphere for your wedding. Our dance floor was jam-packed the entirety of our wedding, and we still have people commenting on how incredible our DJ was. He also played piano during cocktail hour and it was so incredibly beautiful. Andrew, thank you for making our day so perfect. If you are in search of a DJ, look no further, Andrew is the absolute best person you could have for your wedding day.

    Amazing Music!

    I just can’t say enough good things about Andrew! He was AMAZING and was truly key in making our wedding reception at Helsinki Hudson such a success! He played the piano for cocktail hour and then transformed into an AWESOME DJ afterwards. He not only provided an easy to use interface for choosing songs, but he also spent time with us beforehand to get a better feel for how we wanted the evening to flow. His passion for his craft showed and he had the crowd dancing all night! I highly recommend him for your next event.

    Perfect June 2019 Wedding

    Andrew was recommended to me by a high school classmate. I was intrigued that he also offers to play piano at an additional cost. All encounters with him over the phone and through email were always professional, and laid back. His pricing is very reasonable for how experienced he is. To this day we still get compliments about the music and DJ at our wedding. I have never seen that many people continuously on the dance floor! Can’t thank him enough for making our day perfect!

    Our memorable wedding turned into a disco party!

    Andrew was very flexible, easy going and was able to make our wedding even more memorable. We reside in Los Angeles and Andrew was easy to communicate with from afar. He met with our coordinator at the venue to make sure logistics were done right prior to our wedding date. The day of, Andrew had everyone at the dance floor immediately after speeches and dances. Highly recommend him!!!

    One of the best choicest we could have made!

    If you're considering Andrew as your DJ, the best advice I could give you is to stop reading this right now and HIRE HIM immediately. We heard about Andrew because he worked as the DJ at two weddings that our friend had attended. Not only did she rave about the music, she said that he was incredibly easy to work with.

    Andrew is a kind, organized, and incredible DJ who knows just how to tailor the music to your guests to get them all out on the dance floor. His online planning system made it easy to select our must play list, and his scheduling feature allowed us to add in special announcements or moments like toasts.

    Also, with Andrew, you get both a DJ and an amazing pianist. We originally planned to have him play piano at the ceremony and cocktail hour and then switch to DJing the reception. When it rained and he couldn't play piano outside, he was still amazingly poised and seamlessly switched to recorded music. More than once during the day, Andrew literally sprinted to retrieve a mic and ensure that everything went off without a hitch.

    During the planning process, Andrew demonstrated the extremely valuable and rare skill of being able to deliver expert advice in a way that was not only helpful but also accessible. With his help, we were able to craft a reception timeline that went forward flawlessly.

    One of the main things our guests commented on at our wedding, was just how out of this world our DJ was. He managed to get people of all different generations and backgrounds out on the dance floor and knew just how to time the rhythm of the night.

    I would recommend Andrew to absolutely anyone and would 100% hire him if we ever need a DJ in the future. Thank you Andrew for providing a perfect soundtrack for our wedding day!

    Incredible

    Andrew was wonderful. He helped me with everything from the schedule of the night, to song choices, to our sparkler exit. He listened to what I wanted and also offered his professional opinion to make sure our wedding met all of our expectations.

    Great at reading and adjusting to crowd!

    Andrew was always professional and friendly, and was a great addition to my wedding. If he took a break, I never saw it. He had an uncanny ability to adjust to the crowd. For example, he kept the older guests dancing. But when they began to filter out at a later hour he adjusted the music and really got the place rocking for the younger guests.

    I'd highly recommend Andrew for any party!

    The Best! Highly recommended

    Andrew was the perfect Pianist and DJ for our wedding day. He played the piano for the ceremony and for 2 HOURS during the cocktail reception. He had a wide range of classic and modern hits that he rocked on the keyboard. Then during the reception we essentially had 2 different sets of music, with a 20 min break/send off in between. He played to the crowd perfectly in each case; sticking with older and many classic hits earlier while the older crowd was still there. When we came back in for round 2, it was mostly the youthful crowd remaining and what ensued was more-or-less a hopping nightclub. All around great to work with and you could see his passion when he's spinning tracks and rocking the air guitar along to the music. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is hunting for the right DJ for their wedding.

    Andrew was fantastic. I won't tell you anything the prior reviews haven't told you but if he is available for your date - do yourself and your guests a favor and hire him. The piano during the cocktails and the ceremony was beautiful and the dance floor was never empty during the reception (one of my biggest fears for the wedding, no lie). He worked flawlessly and moved around from one location to the next at the venue so smoothly, I didn't notice it once (Maple Shade Farm has 3 different locations on site, so I imagine it's not the easiest venue to maneuver as a vendor). Andrew, thank you for dodging what I'm sure were MANY ridiculous requests from the guests and thank you so much for working with our timeline! We hope to work with Andrew again in the future!

    Definitely book Andrew Westphal. He played piano during the ceremony and cocktail hour, and DJ'd the reception. People of every age were saying he was the best DJ they had ever seen at a wedding. He was easy to work with, amazing on keyboard, had everyone dancing, and even seemed like he was having a great time. Highly recommend, I would choose him 1000 times over.

    Andrew Westphal is the best - hands down! Stop reading this review and go book him right now!

    Andrew played during my ceremony and cocktail hour and DJd the reception -- he even found an accomplished, amazing guitarist to accompany him. He was incredibly responsive and helpful during the planning process. He answered all of my questions and I knew I was in good hands. His client area on his website is also great for planning purposes.

    And the music on the night-of....

    The ceremony and cocktail music were absolutely perfect. He got what I wanted and executed it flawlessly. And the dance floor was packed the entire time -- I received SO many compliments on the music choice. He had everyone, from our friends to our grandparents, up from their chairs and getting down the whole evening.

    I can't recommend Andrew enough! Go book him!

    Good music was one of our top priorities for our wedding reception, and Andrew made all of our dreams come true! He was incredibly accommodating, personable, and responsive, from the first day onward. He played live piano for cocktail hour and dinner, then switched to DJ-ing the rest of the night. EVERYONE was on the dance floor. People have continued to tell us how much fun the dancing was, and how beautiful the live music was. Andrew is great at reading the crowd and deciding when each song should be played. Give him the freedom to work his craft and you will not be disappointed! We are SO happy we chose him, and will cherish our reception memories forever.

    Without a doubt Andrew is the best DJ! His music made our wedding fun and unforgettable. Everyone absolutely raved about the music and every time talk to any of our guests they still talk about how great the music was! Andrew was a pleasure to work with before, during and even sent a great note after the wedding. He also really 'got' our music taste (which is not super mainstream) and listened to us. During the cocktail hour he played classical piano which was a huge hit and then 'worked our way through the decades' with great music! The music had people up and dancing all night and you could really tell that he was enjoying himself as well. I could not recommend him more or any wedding or event!

    If music is a top priority for your wedding then I would highly recommend Andrew Westphal and his services. Andrew has a vast knowledge of music; he is both a pianist and DJ. That was one of the main reasons that I chose him. I feel that live music at a wedding ceremony brings a level of specialness. Andrew entertained my guests before the ceremony and during the cocktail hour with beautiful piano music. He played for the ceremony as well and it was perfect. I spent a lot of time on the music portal that Andrew has set up for his clients. It was very helpful for planning special songs and creating a perfect mix of dance music. Andrew took the time to review everything with me in detail the week before the wedding. He made suggestions based on his experience and expertise. I was truly grateful for that. I heard many of my guests commenting on how great the DJ was. I am pretty sure the dance floor was occupied at all times! I would hire Andrew again in a heartbeat. Great musician and (non-corny) DJ.

    I don't even know how to BEGIN to say how amazing Andrew is. He is truly the best! I found Andrew through a friend who attended a wedding he DJ'd and reached out shortly after we set a date for our wedding. He has a super user-friendly client portal on his website where you can enter your wedding timeline, song request lists, do no play songs, etc. In addition to being an incredible DJ, he is also an accomplished musician and he player some great tunes on the piano during our cocktail hour. Andrew's DJ skills kept our guests (and the bride and groom!) on the dance floor all night long. He is incredibly responsive to emails, is super professional, and he's also one of the nicest people I've ever met. It was truly an honor to have him DJ our wedding! A few days after my wedding, one of my best friends was on her way to another wedding and she texted me and told me while she and her husband were on the way to that wedding her husband said "No wedding DJ will ever be as good as the one at Becca and Tyler's wedding". It's totally true. Hire Andrew, you will NOT be disappointed!

    Andrew was integral in making our wedding such an amazing and fun day. Our friends could not stop talking about how amazing the music was and how much fun they had dancing! Even family members who normally don't dance were on the dance floor. We had some specific vibe/song requests and he was more than accommodating. Andrew read the room extremely well and it was so great to not have to worry about our music – he had it covered!

    Andrew did an amazing job as both pianist and DJ at our wedding! He was incredibly easy to work with leading up to the wedding and was able to adapt on the fly. His choice of piano songs during cocktail hour was perfect and he superbly read the room to keep things lively. As DJ he made the night come alive with a tremendous mix of songs that kept people on the dance floor. So many of our guests raved about him after the wedding. We would highly recommend Andrew to any couple looking for a wedding pianist and/or DJ!
