John was a great addition to the MS Spring Dance. He and his wife arrived on time and set up with out any trouble, the photo booth looked amazing with perfect props and kept the kids amused all night. They loved having the branded physical pictures to take home. So fun! I have recommended J&J to others and would use them again for future events.

DJ John was excellent. My guests and myself were very pleased with all of the music he played. He knows how to read the room! I would recommend John for any party!

DJ John was incredible! He has such a natural talent for reading the room, he knew exactly how to catch the vibe and get everyone up and grooving all evening long. We also added on the Photo Booth package, and it was a huge hit! Our friends and family absolutely loved it, and it turned into one of the highlights of the night. If you're on the fence about the add-on, just get it, it's so worth it. Between DJ John's incredible skills behind the booth and the fun the Photo Booth brought, our guests are still talking about how great the party was. Highly, highly recommend for any wedding or event!

John and his wife worked my dad’s surprise birthday party and did a wonderful job. They were adorable, punctual, and professional. Definitely recommend!

We had the pleasure of hiring John for our son’s 5th birthday party, and he was fantastic. He was professional, and did an excellent job playing music that kept all the kids entertained and dancing the entire time. Our party was held at a city park without a power source, and he came fully prepared with his own equipment, making the setup completely seamless. His ability to read the crowd really made the event special. I would highly recommend him for any event, especially those involving kids!

Rose P.Dec 2018

By far the best attraction at the wedding was the photobooth, down to the backdrop they use to the care Colon has for it. The set up was adorable and we had lots of different props to choose from. I will definitely recommend to anyone who needs a photobooth at their wedding.

Myrta R.Jun 2018

The DJ took our suggestions and provided us with great music that included great salsa music, some contemporary and great line dancing music. My favorite was how he sang the Happy Birthday song in English and in Spanish with a salsa beat. I will definitely refer him to my friends and family members.
