best day of my life thanks to after hours

I just wanted to extend my deepest thank you for the services After Hours provided at my and Iris’s wedding this past Sunday at The Woodwinds. I already texted Carlos, but he is one of the most skilled DJs I have seen. And his cousin Natasha’s MC’ing was truly what made our wedding have the upbeat energy like I have never seen at a wedding before. Even the wedding Coordinator at Woodwinds, Sergio, said he has not seen a wedding with so much uplifting and fun energy in a long time. And that couldn’t have happened without Carlos and Natasha’s expertise and skilled craft. And the Photo Booth services were phenomenal, people could not stop lining up to take pictures in there, and the scrapbook of Photo Booth pics they provided me at the end was stunning. So thank you again :)

Definitely recommend!!

We really enjoyed working with Mike from After Hours!! He made the whole process smooth, and the system that After Hours has set up for inputting information was helpful for us while we made decisions. Mike made us feel comfortable from the first phone call and was extremely flexible, even letting us make changes the night before the wedding! We valued his expertise in the process. We and all of our guests had such a fun time; the music and Photo Booth were a great addition to our wedding!

Best Choice Ever

DJ Sal Fusco and his wife Vanessa were the perfect addition to my wedding. Sal and his wife did not do music for our ceremony, but still heavily participated in ensuring the crowd was ready for our big day, as well as each person in our wedding party. Not only did he ensure our ceremony went so smoothly, but he was the man behind the mic, fading people in and out to make each moment perfect. Not to mention the hype up for our entrances, even the parents had a blast. Our dance floor was packed the entire night, and our guests were begging for it to not be over. He is truly a professional and it is clear to anyone who works with him. At the end of the night, his wife and he surprised me with photos and videos of the entire night. He captured our entire ceremony, our speeches, our dances, and a ton of other magical moments. When he told my fiancé and I, it brought me to tears. I couldn’t recommend a better DJ, or person really, to help make your day absolutely perfect.

We have worked with Sal of After Hours DJ Entertainment at multiple weddings and highly recommend them to our clients. They are professional, experienced and great at what they do. As photographers we always appreciate it when DJ's communicate well with us regarding timing etc. After Hours is great at this and they keep the festivities going smoothly so we have great moments to capture and document for the Bride and Groom.

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Jim Casso from After Hours DJ for a wedding. He was very outgoing, an absolute joy to work with and truly cared about his couple. He went above and beyond to make sure his couple's day was perfect. I received a timeline one week prior to the wedding day, the wireless microphone was clear throughout the ceremony - and from what I heard from the couple and their parents, their guests danced the night away. There was an issue after the ceremony and Jim contacted me directly to make sure that his client had no issues. I highly recommend Jim for any event!
