Hired on Thumbtack

Had my wedding this past weekend and Al was great from the start on contact. His pricing is VERY reasonable especially for the services he provides. He was on time, handled the ceremony music perfectly, and although we were very easy with the music we asked for, he was great at creating a playlist for our type of guests, which I had explained from the start that we weren’t super clubby/theatrical, more reserved. I loved that his DJ letup included a LED LOVE sign, it was the perfect touch to our outdoor, midday reception. I already referred him to a friend who is on a DJ hunt. I would definitely hire Al again for future events.

The reception was nothing but lit!!! DJ Al Boogs played the right selection of music which kept everyone on the dance floor. Our family and friends raved about the great time they had at our wedding for days. Definitely recommend DJ Al Boogs

Hired on Thumbtack

We hired Al Boogs Productions for my brother’s wedding and it was hands down one of the best experience we’ve ever have. Al was super professional, on point and completely tuned into our event needs and music requests. Our guests can’t stop raving about how good of a time they had as a result of our DJ. Thanks so much, Al for a magical time. See you at my 40th. 😉

Al is a great DJ! We immediately vibed with him during our first meeting, leading us to book him for our wedding. He understood what music we were into (90s, 2000s and top hits), and nailed it during the event. He definitely kept everyone on their feet. He even helped us with our first dance mix. I would book him again for another event!

Hired on Thumbtack

A great working experience right from the start. After receiving a quote for our wedding reception and accepting, I received the contract, made down payment, then received a document that detailed everything from start to finish of the event as an outline. We were able to suggest specific songs (small playlist order) to timing/scheduling of music with the reception events. His music selection got the guests off their chairs and dancing. It was a struggle to find a DJ when i first started looking through google searches, and I remembered hearing about Thumbtack. I definitely recommend Al for his musicality, his professionalism, and his charisma.
