  • Adam is simply the best

    Adam was phenomenal. The process was seamless from start to finish, and he did a great job making the event special to the two of us. For example, we had a corny idea for the ceremony with a music cue about a song we love, and he was encouraging about including it if it was relevant to us - and it became a favorite part of mine ("Simply the Best" when we said the I dos). He was on top of it and kept us on schedule all night, which kept people having a great time. The dance floor itself was a huge hit, and he nailed both the song choice and reading the room to keep the energy up. There were songs that had everyone singing along, songs that got groups included that were on the sideline, and never let there be a lull. I cannot recommend him enough.

    DJ Shazaam was incredible and absolutely made this event. He DJ’d a kids-and-parents Minecraft rave birthday party and created the perfect balance of fun for both children and adults. The dance floor was full the entire time. His mixes and mashups were playful, high energy, and age appropriate, and his professional setup sounded great in our dome space. He has a fantastic personality and was a joy to work with. I highly recommend him for kids parties, family events, and community celebrations where you want everyone dancing together.

    Do yourself a favor and hire Adam/DJ Shazam now.  Days after the wedding, we still had people reaching out to tell us how great Adam was: “DJ Shazam was everything.” “He was so good. That was the most fun we’ve had at a wedding since ours.” Beyond obviously bringing the party and good vibes, Adam was incredibly professional and easy to work with. We never expected our DJ to actually want to get to know us, but on every call leading up to the wedding, Adam made it a point to understand who we are and what we envisioned for the day. He asked thoughtful, detailed questions that showed how deeply he cares about creating something more meaningful than just a bomb set list (which, he absolutely overdelivers on). He builds an experience that feels personal, intentional, and wildly fun. Wedding planning can be stressful, but every time we talked to Adam, it reminded us why we were doing all of this and got us genuinely excited for the big day. If you’re looking for a DJ who’s extremely organized, professional, and able to take your ideas (or help you figure them out) and make them even better - hire Adam/DJ Shazam now. You want the classics? He’s got ‘em. You want a fresh twist on the classics that’ll get your crowd hyped, even if you don’t quite know what that looks like? He’s got that too.  Adam, thank you so much. You were truly a highlight of both the day and the entire planning process. We’d hire you 100 times over and crash any wedding you’re a part of!

  • Super fun, high-energy and professional DJ!

    We were introduced to DJ Shazam through our wedding planner. Once I heard his mixes, I knew we would be a great fit. DJ Shazam did an amazing job at our wedding. He was super helpful throughout the entire process, guiding us through song selection, reception flow, first dance and parent dances, and other important choices. When I told him I liked remixed Motown song, he knew exactly the right mixes to use. We had different playlists for the different phases of the wedding (cocktail hour, dinner, dancing) and he did an excellent job mixing it all together. His mixing, audio equipment and lighting were all top notch and created a super fun atmosphere throughout our wedding. What we appreciated most was the tremendous energy DJ Shazam brought to our wedding - our guests were literally on the dance floor until the very, very end!
