JohnJ entertainment

I believe that music is vitally important to your event, it is a major factor in making it a success. Whether it be a wedding, reunion, company function, backyard barbecue or any kind of private party, my goal is to create the right mood and ambiance for your celebration to be memorable! My passion is music but my mission is creating a memorable event! Every event is unique as you are! There are no cookie-cutter playlists! I have over 25 years of experience, with over 30,000 songs in my personal inventory! My collection spans 100 years of music for parties of every kind and size (25 to 250). Weddings, company functions, reunions, and themed parties are my specialty! I am also subscribed to Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music so I have access to millions of songs. Some of the unique weddings that I recently deejayed include: -) An all 80's power rock / power ballad reception. -) A bride wanted none of the overplayed, 'trite' 20 songs that you hear at most weddings (including Love Shack, YMCA, Don't Stop Believing, line dances, etc) ... and the dance floor was still packed! -) Another bride wanted a 'swing' affair - old fashioned Glenn Miller / Andrews Sister plus NewWave Techno Swing -) Another bride wanted no songs released prior to 1990, another wanted absolutely no slow songs, and yet another wanted a heavy metal event! -) In 2024 I deejayed 6 weddings in June and July and 7 different types of events in Aug 2024: a) a 5-hour street festival in St Albans b) a 5-hour grand opening celebration of a business in St Albans c) a multi-year class reunion for 150 alumni in Milton spanning 1944 on d) a 60th b'day party as well as a 70th b'day party e) 2 bar mitzvahs f) 2 nursing home visits g) emceeing a NY record company search for talent (think Ryan Seacrest) as I host a 3-day competition. I'd love to hear what the plans are for your reception / event! I can make it a night you'll remember! Putting a smile on everyone's face and keeping the dance floor packed and moving is most important. If you are looking for a club-style DJ with ear-pounding bass mixes or scratching -- that's not me. But if you want a throwback style DJ that remembers you are the star at your wedding or if you need an emcee for your reunion / corporate event without the 'cheese' of an "are you ready to rumble" announcer, then read on... Why choose John J entertainment? 1) My name is on the door! I don't sub it out to a rotating pool of DJs. You get me and my experience. 2) My price includes travel, lighting and a second sound-system for use at a ceremony (ex: gazebo, arbor), three hours of backup power and more! 3) I offer several discounts: Military, mid-week event, guest size, venue, 'special anniversaries, and themed parties.
