We hired Brian to DJ our in Milwaukee after hearing him at a friend's wedding in Healdsburg, CA…read more After hearing him in person, I don't believe we actually even looked into any other DJ because he was so awesome. He knows how to really read the crowd and get everybody up and dancing. We wanted a dance party for a wedding and we definitely got it. Brian is known for actually "DJ'ing" as in mixing songs - -not just playing one song after the next. He has a full on system set up to mix anything from Robin Thicke to Aerosmith and make it sound phenomenal. Brian was really easy to work with, accommodating, and was always available for a conference call throughout the planning process. He even flew in the night before to make sure there were no hang ups at the airport.

We were married in Hawaii and had two receptions, and we hired Brian as our DJ for our NYC…read morereception. He exceeded our expectations. We spoke on the phone twice and I could tell he was a genuinely nice guy. He was very clear on set up so the look would be exactly what we wanted for our party without any surprises, and B-Boy Productions sets up an online client tool for each event that allows you to put in as much or as little detail for your event as your heart desires. We put in a few specifics and then let him do his thing. One of the first things I noticed at the reception is Brian's speaking voice; it is very pleasant in tone and his announcements sounded great. He also worked with us to coordinate music for our slideshow presentation and I just felt that he could roll with anything and be counted on -- and he could -- which allowed us to relax and enjoy the evening. Another thing I appreciated was his desire to be clear on what WE wanted for the party. For instance, we didn't want impromptu speeches so he never gave a microphone to anyone without asking us if it was okay - -and he did it in a subtle way. We were able to communicate with just a glance or a nod. I liked that he was very attentive and in sync with us the whole evening. But no matter how nice a DJ is, you hire them for the music and their ability to get people dancing and this is where Brian really shines. He knows how to read a crowd and play the right music to keep everyone dancing, and that is just what he did. Anyone who approached him was greeted with a smile. He played all of our specific requests and was brilliant at mixing in (random) guest song requests. We found his music collection to be vast (as it should be) and if he doesn't have a song (which we didn't encounter), he will get it on the spot. After seeing some of the iPhone videos of the reception at the end of the night (funny stuff) it is clear that Brian really kept the energy up and the party going without it being too "club-like" in feel. After all, it's a wedding, not a rave. Everyone loved him -- from the young to the old. Guests raved about him and we left our reception feeling like we had just thrown the best party in town. If you are looking for a dependable, solid DJ who really gets it and can appeal to a wide age range, Brian's your man. I can't recommend him enough. We were extremely pleased with our reception and we will look to hire him again for future parties.

Our venue had an electrical issue halfway through the reception, but he remained calm, helped them figure out the problem, and never once put blame on anyone else. Ok, now to the music! It was AMAZING! He even had my 90 year old grandmother out on the floor dancing to French Montana! Everything from the music choices, to the seamless transitions between songs were incredible. We feel so lucky that someone had recommended DJ Mode to us! Thank you for everything DJ Mode- you truly made our night memorable.

From accommodating the groom's eclectic requests into the cocktail hour playlist, to seamlessly sewing in a throwback hit and dance for some grandparents (think "It's a Wonderful World" put into a dance set without hiccups), to incorporating all of the bride's favorite dance songs, he put our night perfectly to music. It's difficult to state how many people came up to us to tell us that the DJ was killing it, and the real proof was in the dance floor that was bumping all night.

A few specific shout outs: Raymond obviously was exactly what was needed and expressions on Alana's face throughout the afternoon says it all. The male dancers (specifically ) were unbelievable and I'm still getting comments. Honestly I forgot their names. Joe - photographer had the perfect temperament to handle alana (saw when she got frustrated and had her take a break). Great read of everything. Gold Medalists.... Fritz (ZAPP photo). Truly a hysterical gentle giant. Caught the funny moments and laughed a lot all night with me. Aaron on the photo booth. True professional and was great with everyone . He solved a problem for me on the fly, knew when to slide the family members in between kids overwhelming the booth. Lots of laughs. Use him and Fritz more!! Great Job Again I'll call you next week.

My Wife…read moremade several song requests during the duration of the wedding to which the staff regularly refused and laughed at. Towards the end of the night things escalated when my wife made a final request and I attempted to intervene to help her get one of her favorite songs played... which should not be so difficult on her wedding night?? The result was I ended up in a screaming match with the MC as he attempted to refuse the song. This song had no vulgarities or anything else about it that could be seen as offensive. The level of disrespect was unbelievable. Shortly after the altercation, the party came to an abrupt end and everybody filed out. If you are having an event that is important to you, stay clear of this business.

He helped me make mindful edits and suggestions as an unexpected injury almost sidelined the whole event. His team was so understanding at pivoting all throughout the day. There were so many last minute changes that took place. They were such great sports about everything. They were super patient, very professional when approached and helped me with every change up needed. All of my guests had a fabulous time with DJ Winston, spinning tunes and giving out light up sticks on the dance floor (that was a very nice surprise). Winston was so easy to work with. He arranged our playlist perfectly. Ben, our photographer, was really super! He helped us with staging, posing, checked for optimal angles and lighting. Did retakes on the spot if it wasn't perfect. I really appreciated that. All throughout the event, he was running around taking shots, double and triple checking my pre-set list of must have photos. He didn't miss a beat. During our event, I recall seeing him on the floor, behind the tables, by the back wall - I mean he was literally everywhere! I think he was more anxious than I, about the photos I said I wanted as he reminded me a few times that I didn't take the few shots that said I wanted. LOL (No worries Ben, you did it, we got them all)! And kudos to our photo booth attendant, Jeffrey. A man of very few words but he was patient and took care of 70+ guests in 4 hours. He manned the photo booth solo and it ran very smoothly. Between the multiple prints for each person and those re-takes, he was so quick. (Some of us were caught off guard so outtakes and retakes were indeed a thing). The 40+ teens definitely had a great time taking photos at the booth. All of our photos came out great. Choosing the photo layout and card design was actually the hard part - we took a bit of time to choose. Our guests really enjoyed the variety of props provided, you could tell the had fun with it. The best part was the silver backdrop we chose for our booth -- it was classy and stylish. Loved it and it complimented our decor! I totally recommend Dynasty Weddings without reservation.
