The best in long Island

Last year my husband Marc and I got married at Oceanbleu, and used After Hours as our DJ, for live music during ceremony and cocktail hour, and for a food truck with pizza and taco bell at the end of the night. Throughout the process, Phil became more than a vendor, but a great friend to us as he was easy to communicate with while we selected songs and explained our vision, helped us figure out how to hook up sound on the beach for the ceremony, and even signed off on our marriage license since my cousin who married us wasn't officially "ordained". From the very first song to the very last (Scotty Doesn't Know), Phil had very single guest dancing, smiling, laughing, and moving for the entirety of our wedding. He was easily our best vendor at the wedding and make the night so fun and unforgettable. If you want your guests to have the best party of their lives, book After Hours. And if you do book them, please invite us so we can party with Phil again! Phil is THE BEST!!!

We met Phil through our Best Man Brett. Working with Phil was amazing. He was so easy going and really made our wedding day less stressful. He was accommodating with every detail of our wedding playlist. Our guest really enjoyed themselves. I was really worried about people not dancing since me and my wife come from different cultural backgrounds but DJ/MC BENNY really knew how to mix songs and make everyone feel included. Since my parents don't speak English very well Benny really made an effort to make my parents and also family members who had come South American feel like they were part of it all. We even had last minute changes the day of and they made it seemed like there was nothing to worry about. Those changes were made quickly and nobody notice anything during the ceremony or introductions. We also had on our package the fireworks which everyone was really mesmerized when they saw them on action, and the pictures that were taken throughout the wedding. The pictures we got from the wedding came out just as good as our photographers. These pictures were kind of more our style since they were candid pictures and not pose. Not surprise to say a lot of these pictures actually made it to our wedding album. I would really have to recommend them to any bride that wants their day to go PERFECT. Thank you so much for making our day the most magical day.

We had Brett as our DJ along with a percussionist and saxophonist at our wedding Labor Day weekend. Brett did a great job in the lead up to our special day - collaborating with us to help us figure out the right mix of music to suit our crowd. The execution at our wedding was outstanding as our crowd loved the music and kept a consistent energy level on the dance floor all night. The crowd also was especially a fan of our percussionist. Not only was the music and energy fantastic, but the operation of the photobooth was flawless. It was clearly up to date technology with fun props, great lighting, and a smooth process. Our wedding would not have been as fun without Brett and the After Hours team!

After Hours was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding! After attending other showcases, we saw After Hours and booked on the spot. The music was perfect, but their personalities sold us. It’s hard to find the line between “too much” and “not enough” with entertainment, but everyone here seems to do it effortlessly. The music hit a range wide enough to please EVERYONE at our wedding, and the dance floor was literally never empty. We chose MC Jake because his personality fit ours so well. During the showcase, he made me feel SO comfortable in front of a crowd (I participated in a game) that I was able to relax and have fun; that’s how I knew he was our guy. He carried that same level of comfort into our wedding, as though we hired a friend. He was able to get the party going and keep the energy high all night, but in a way that wasn’t overbearing for our guests. He was perfect. We chose DJ McLovin because his music selection was a perfect blend of my love for pop and “the classics” with my husband’s taste for rock and oldies. When we did our paperwork, we only requested a few songs and let him take care of the rest; his intuition for what we and our guests wanted to hear was spot on. We opted for uplighting and an enclosed photo booth. The uplighting was stunning and made the room complete, and the photo booth was a hit. Our guests had a ball and we’ll cherish our take-home album forever. Finally, Phil: I don’t know what to say about how great he was. He was a huge help and comfort in making sure our event was a success. From the moment we booked, to the evening after our wedding when he emailed to ask “How’d it go?”, Phil ensured everything was executed flawlessly, on time, and in a way that made it so easy for us. He answered calls and emails immediately, helped with pricing, and checked in when we forgot to take care of things. Booking with After Hours was the easiest part of planning. I HIGHLY recommend them if you want to host an amazing event.
