Jess was incredible to work with. Our DJ cancelled just a few months before our wedding (we booked 15 months in advance) so we were in a bit of a panic. Jess was so responsive and thoughtful with the work she did prior to our wedding. Her set up was great, too, and totally went with our wedding aesthetic—our reception was at the Martin House’s Greatbatch Pavilion in Buffalo. Everyone had a blast and was on the dance floor despite it being a smaller wedding (about 60 people) with most guests in their late 30s/early 40s (elder emos). I definitely would recommend her to anyone looking to host a party.
Details: Wedding • 50 - 99 guests • 51 or older • 31 - 50 years old • 18 - 30 years old • Rock • Pop • Oldies • Top 40 • Banquet hall or ballroom • MC services • Lighting

I don’t even know where to start with Jess but oh my GOD I cannot recommend her enough.
Pre-wedding, her process was so easy and we were able to send her playlists on Spotify rather than use a weird online portal. We filled out a comprehensive wedding worksheet where we were able to add a do not play list and lay out how we wanted the night to flow. It was so easy while allowing us to make sure we were specific in what we wanted.
Night of… wow. Never have I ever seen a DJ read the crowd so well and keep the dance floor absolutely packed all night while switching up genres seamlessly. I mean, Piano Man by Billy Joel into Bonfire by Childish Gambino flawlessly?? Incredible. Jess was so kind, patient, accommodating, and fun and truly helped make our night so special. Our ceremony went off without a hitch and Jess transitioned between all processional and recessional songs perfectly. In the days following the wedding, one of the main comments we’ve gotten from guests was that we had the BEST DJ and that is absolutely true. If you’re getting married soon and/or in the market for a DJ for anything, BOOK JESS/VIBE! You will NOT regret it.

Indescribably incredible... I volunteered to arrange the DJ, and I procrastinated until a couple months before the wedding. Some extended family members, had recomended VIBE/Jess, who was not only still available, but very reasonably priced. Our wedding was pretty unconventional. It took place at a farm that typically hosts music festivals, so we wanted to have a variety of music in different spots throughout the day and night. We asked Jess to handle the bulk of the music following the reception, but then also to play a surprise late night set around a big campfire in the woods, which she graciously accepted (for again a very reasonable price), despite not knowing us or the (remote) venue at all.
Jess did an excellent job setting up quickly on the fly after the ceremony band, arranging mics for speeches, and facilitating an emotional "couples dance" (my grandparents 79th anniversary was this year). She then did a great job of mixing genres throughout the reception, facilitating advance and on the spot requests, including mixing a lot of "jam" and rock music that me/my friends like with more traditional wedding dance hits (but not the corny/overplayed ones). There was really something for everyone and a lot of great energy.
But the late night campfire set is where she really blew us away. Playing some bold electronic mixes of hip hop and pop songs, while many of our closest friends danced around a large fire, with a makeshift bar, was truly incredible. I will never forget a stunning and perfectly-timed 'Believe' by Cher as I looked around and saw everyone dancing and generally having a blast. At this point is when I noticed thatc her sound equipment is absolutely top notch as well. She even agreed to play an extra hour (until 3 AM!). The following days and weeks a variety of friends reached out to see if she performs locally at bars/clubs/venues. We are incredibly grateful to Jess for making our wedding night absolutely unforgettable.
If you have an opportunity to book Jess for your event, do so as promptly as you can. You won't regret it.
