When searching for a DJ for our wedding, I'll admit, we had some challenging requirements. Chief…read moreamongst which, is that our DJ was fluent in Polish and be familiar with certain cultural wedding traditions, as the bride's family is largely native Polish speakers. DJ Tommy Sands was our guy. When we first met with DJ Tommy, it was clear he was much different from the other DJs we'd met in the past. He had a great sense of timing events surrounding the wedding, and how to make things run smoothly. I'll never forget when he gave us a tip saying that no matter how much he encouraged people to dance, we as the wedding couple needed to lead by example. Boy was he right!! Whenever we danced, the floors filled, and it was hilarious to observe the effect. Throughout the night, DJ Tommy would show to be our guiding light. When times were a bit off from the schedule, he made thoughtful and insightful suggestions on how to shift things around and keep things running smoothly. His calm and positive attitude helped *us* remain calm and positive. He even managed to help us avoid the bride's mother who was being particularly difficult at times!

Let me start by saying that Marx Entertainment provided both DJ services and Photo Booth services…read morefor our wedding. We were very unhappy with the DJ but happy with the Photo Booth set up and staff. My husband and I had DJ Craig for our wedding in September 2023. We had two meetings with him beforehand were we discussed how we would like the night to run. In addition to a list of "must-play" songs (something we were encouraged to complete), we discussed how we would like our table-dash, anniversary dance, alumni photo, and private dance to operate. We also noted on multiple occasions during both calls that we DID NOT want a lot of remixes. Unfortunately, we were disappointed with how DJ Craig managed all of these aspects except for the table dash and private dance. Here is where our issues lie: - Out of our 30 or so must play songs maybe half were played. - As laid out on the Marx Entertainment website we chose a "last song" for the dance floor. DJ Craig played the song we designated as our last song as a way to open the dance floor. - The first 30 minutes were exclusively remixes and bad ones at that. It got to the point where we said something to DJ Craig, and while the music did get better, he still continued to play remixes. Honestly, a Spotify playlist would have been better. - The anniversary dance was something DJ Craig suggested and we loved the idea. However, instead of doing what he had described to us where he starts calling people off the dance floor after some dancing and starting with short time increments, DJ Craig called for anyone married for less than 5 years to leave the dance floor after approximately 20 seconds. People hadn't even REACHED the dance floor to start dancing at that point, including the parents of the groom. Not to mention we are a young couple and that kicked more than half of the people off the dance floor in one sweep. - College alumni photo was announced at a very weird time and very rushed. Just felt awkward - We were immediately asked once the lights turned on to provide a positive video review for DJ Craig. This was extremely uncomfortable and we gave dishonest feedback during it. We would NOT recommend him. Like I said previously, the Photo Booth staff was excellent and we loved the book they made us. We also had no issues with booking or prior communication with Marx. While the set up and logistical execution of the event went well we didn't feel our opinions were considered at all in song selection and that the fun mini-events we had throughout the night went poorly

I used Matthew's catering for my son's wedding rehearsal and he and his fiance used them for their…read morewedding the next day. Fantastic! The food was outstanding. We had their barbecue slider bar/buffet for the rehearsal party which was also the wedding venue. Everything was delicious. The "rave" was the pulled pork. The burger sliders were moist and cooked perfectly. Matthew also easily accommodated vegetarians in the group with portobello mushroom caps that were barbecued. The sides were excellent (cole slaw and another tossed salad). Prior to the dinner we had their garden harvest display with cut veggies, dips, hummus, flat breads and crackers. We had strawberry shortcake for dessert. Penny made the night! Her attention to every detail is amazing. The servers that accompanied her were polite and very attentive. Everything was taken care of from set up to clean up. It is obvious that all those involved take great pride in their work. The prices for all of this are very reasonable. Their entire staff is easy to work with and is readily available throughout the planning and the event itself. The wedding the next day also had excellent food and the staff was as attentive and hard working as the night before. Everyone was pleased with the hors d'oeuvres and the dinner buffet. The leftovers were packed nicely for us to take home. Thank you Matthew, Penny and staff. You are the best!! I would recommend them without hesitation. You can't go wrong with Matthew's Catering.
