An absolute must have DJ!

DJ Lou helped make our wedding a 10/10 experience. He was on point with his transitions, allowed us to change things around last minute, and threw down on all the music he played. I would recommend to anyone and I hope you hire him for your next event!!!

The best dj ever!

Lou was amazing. I haven't stopped hearing about how much fun our DJ was since our big day. The DJ was the vendor I was most nervous about booking, and he made it such an easy and laid back experience. He made sure the dance floor was always full of people and was very receptive to requests and no play songs/artists/genres. His set up was very aesthetically pleasing and did not feel out of place or like an eyesore during our ceremony and turned into party central for the reception. I would 100% recommend him for any of your DJ needs.

Let First Choice DJ be your first choice

When we started planning for our wedding, our search for a DJ was tough. We had met/talked with about 4-5 DJs at that point and none of them really resonated with us and our personalities. Our last DJ "interview" was with Lou from First Choice, and we immediately clicked with him. He's extremely friendly and will do whatever to make your happy day even happier. We bothered him a lot with random requests and custom work and he never hesitated or seemed over it.
The actual wedding though is a completely different story. Most of our friends are introverts and don't really dance, but that dance floor was BUMPING thanks to Lou and his amazing song choices and his ability to read the room. He also pretty much took every song request from our guests without redundancy, even if the song wasn't available to him at the moment, he found a way to play the requested song.
Lou is truthfully one of a kind and if you are looking for an amazing DJ, him and his company should be your first choice.
