Kenny and his wife, Maxine (Max), are a husband and wife power team! They are both very professional. They are super easy to work with. They have great ideas. They are excellent at communicating. D.J. Kenny did a phenomenal job of being the MC for the evening. He brought energy, life, and fun to our party. In addition to playing great music for us. Max is very talented. She is fun, creative, and persuasive about getting people over to the photo booth. We have a lot of people in our family who do not like to be photographed. Having Max do the photo booth was an excellent idea. She excels at breaking the ice with people and getting them to cooperate to get their photo taken. It was a lovely evening, and Dream Laine Entertainment played a major role in the success of our party. I will definitely use them again if the occasion arises.

I found Melissa on Yelp and was so pleased to find a caterer that was familiar with dietary…read morerestrictions. She made us a peanut-free, gluten-free, and some dairy-free menu for a family event (22 people). Several of my guests were surprised that the food was gluten-free and tasted so good! We especially loved the GF Mozzarella stuffed meatballs w/tomato sauce and the GF New York Style cheesecake w/berries. I will recommend The Alternative Chef to friends and plan to use her again myself when future events arise.

Weeks after our wedding, guests are still commenting about one thing... Not the food. Or, the…read moreflowers. Or, how beautiful the ceremony was. They are commenting about the DJ! And, one word in particular comes up again and again: FABULOUS! My husband and I could not agree more! We were paired up with our DJ, Abay Israel, by DJ DC Productions. Before we even talked about music, Abay wanted to talk about us. We met with him well in advance of our event, and the majority of our one-hour meeting focused on my husband and I as a couple, who we are as people, who are friends are, who will be attending the wedding, and the overall feel that we want to create. In discussing our needs for ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception, Abay was extremely knowledgeable about our venue and what type of sound amplification we would need. After our initial meeting, we kept in communication with Abay via phone and email, and we felt comfortable and confident that we were in very capable hands. Additionally, he communicated in advance directly with our ceremony musicians to arrange their sound needs as well, which I consider another mark of DJ DC Production's professionalism and service. When discussing our goals for the evening, we made one thing clear: We wanted a party! Abay delivered just that and so much more!! We provided song suggestions via the DJ website, but when it came down to it, Abay read the crowd and delivered on every level - Keeping the crowd dancing and pumping them up with the help of his hype man, Jamall Bufford. I would recommend Abay, Jamall, and the DJ DC Productions crew to anyone looking for a fantastic and professional DJ! I wish we could live that night over again! - - It was truly a BLAST! THANK YOU, DJ DC Productions!

Hands down the best money I spent on my daughters wedding! Derrick and Maxx are unbelievable…read more These guys are true professionals. They communicate well with the client, other vendors and with each other. The day of the event was smooth and the reception was just plain fun. My daughter and son-in-law loved them, my husband and I loved them and our guest loved them. Their website is great and they help you pick the music for different stages of the event. Then once the music for entrances, formal dances, etc. were picked with left the rest up to the professionals and we were not disappointed. These guys know how to read a crowd and keep the party going. If you what to have a great party that your guest will be talking about well after the event I suggest you hire DJ DC Productions, LLC.

She captured such a emotional and significant time for my family and I, and I cannot say enough good things about how talented and kind hearted she genuinely is. I without a doubt would recommend her to anyone! If you have the opportunity to use her as your photographer, take it! I promise you won't regret it!

If I could, I would give no stars to this company. DO NOT WORK WITH THEM…read more I had my wedding in 2011 and everything that reviewer Michele T. wrote is COMPLETELY TRUE. Upon meeting Rob (owner), we were very excited about the lighting, DJ and photobooth we were going to receive from them. They showed us pictures and examples of their lighting and photobooth and they were the one vendor we felt so confident in. What we were promised was not what we got - esp. the lighting and photobooth. NEGATIVES: Lighting: HUGE NEGATIVE 1.) Our reception started a whole hour late because they were not set up (only 2 people running the photobooth, dj, and lighting) and had to start even without lighting, which did not get fixed at all and so lighting for the entire reception was nonexistent. 2.) We were promised a name monogram on the dance floor, which just happened to break that day, so, no name monogram (over $100+). 3.) We were promised a "white wash" on the dance floor for our first dance & cake cutting and the only thing that consisted of was a panel about 8"x10" that had LED lights that was sitting on the floor aimed at our feet. The dance floor was pitch black so our venue tried to turn on some house lights and our photographers had to go grab their extra light to shine on us so they could get some pictures of our first dance. 4.) We were promised pin spots on each table to light up each centerpiece - only a few tables had pin spots and the excuse that we were given was that the overhead lighting interfered with how the pin spots look but we had to turn on overhead lights b/c their lighting was nonexistent. 5.) We were promised uplighting around the dance floor and did not get this as well - only 1 pillar was lit up. Photobooth: The photobooth was poorly constructed and looked dated as the curtain rods kept falling down and the seating was unstable - the excuse we were given was that people get rowdy in the booth so thats why the photobooth was like that. When we met with them, we were shown a completely different photobooth and assured that all the photobooths were "upgraded." We were promised an attendant for about 80% of the time as the person would go back and forth from DJ to photobooth. There was hardly anyone there so my sister in law was pretty much trying to organize and make the scrapbook album. Only about 5 pages were actually put together. Our images were poorly printed: the quality was okay; however, due to "printer problems," it cut off the bottom of our footer on ALL prints. After the wedding, they agreed to reprint all of the images and mailed those to us (2 months after the fact); unfortunately, all of our guests went home with the cut off images. We were given a flash drive of images though, so that was helpful. POSITIVES: DJ: This was the one positive aspect of this company. Sam was great to work with; We met with him in person and he gave us a short example of how he DJs. We talked with him in length about the type of music we did and DID NOT want, and he met our expectations on that. He responded to emails quickly and had phone conversations with me to make sure he had the pronunciations down and the correct music. Our ceremony music went flawlessly and for the reception, we had a younger group of people at our wedding so we wanted the music to stay in the top 40/hip hop and Sam did a good job with that and did take some requests as well. We were satisfied with the DJ component of the services provided. HOWEVER, we were promised a "glam cam," which we were not given as well. AFTER THE WEDDING: We called Rob (owner) to discuss our frustrations and disappointment with services provided and he claimed that nothing had gone wrong in the wedding and that all of my claims were unfounded. This infuriated me even more as he went on to say that they had done nothing wrong and everything had followed the timeline we had agreed on. I sent him pictures with time stamps of our late entrance due to their inability to set up on time for our reception, poor lighting that did not light up the dance floor as he had stated they would, lighting that did not "pin spot" tables, lighting that failed to work, lighting that did not exist as we had agreed upon in our contract (i.e. pinspots, 20 LEDS, etc), and lack of attendant at the photobooth. Finally, my husband had to take over handling this situation as I was unable to deal with him any longer. Long story short, after many ridiculous phone conversations and emails, we were able to recoup only 1/3 of what we paid for services. OVERALL: Save yourself the headache and DO NOT use this company. They do not provide what they promise you and are not customer friendly when you are not satisfied with services (even with proof!). It was not worth it to spend the next 3 weeks after our wedding (when you should be on your honeymoon and enjoying your time as newlyweds!) trying to get some money back from them and then waiting an additional 2 months to get reprints.
