From TheKnot.com... DJ: Tom Salatto from Starry Nite Entertainment: A+...~Tom was awesome! He has such a great personality and kept the dance floor packed all night. He did our music for everything, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all for only $900! He owns Starry Nite Entertainment so you only have to pay for his services, not his services and for the company. He's been in the business for over 20 years so he knows how to make sure everything runs smoothly and is very professional. He was an awesome MC, was funny and witty, and even got out on the dance floor with everyone and headed up the conga line. I highly suggest him for everyone still looking for a dj ...

Hi Tom,
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
He worked with us to pick great music from start to finish. We met a few
times before the wedding and his hands-on style really helped us in
coordinating everything from our on-site ceremony to the last dance. We
worked with Tom to pick all songs for ceremony procession and and the timing
of all the events. He is very organized and provides a very thorough
approach to make sure he has all details of the day in order.
Tom took note of all family and special guests, and all the special requests
and surprise songs we had in mind. He offers a WIDE variety of music and has
every style to choose from. We were all over the place in our selection -
and he delivered exactly what we wanted- from classical to country to rap!
Tom has a very friendly and upbeat personality which was awesome from
helping us plan to the actual wedding day - he is very social with the
guests and keeps energy going. He truly loves his job and it shows! He set
up special lighting and moved the sound system when we made a last minute
change to where we wanted to have our first dance.
Tom was the best DJ - everyone was dancing all night and had a great time!

I'm very picky when it comes to music. Tom was awesome from the beginning.
He worked around our schedule to arrange meetings, "got" our musical taste
and worked with it, and was wonderful even when I wanted a specific
recording of the music for the processionals.
The dance floor was packed all night and everyone has been very
complimentary about the pacing and flow of the evening. Tom was entertaining
without being obtrusive and kept us and the photographers abreast of what
was coming up. Another favorite vendor.

Tom, here's a Testimonial from us...
Working with Tom Salatto and Starry Nite Entertainment was a wonderful
experience. Myself and my husband used Tom recently at our wedding September
17, 2011.
Working with Tom was a fantastic experience. He made things easy for us, and
we did not have to worry.

Dear Tom,
When we got engaged, we found ourselves in the unenviable position of trying
to plan a wedding from out of state. Looking for a DJ started with research
on the internet and ended with phone interviews. Tom struck us as very
professional, had excellent recommendations, and was very reasonably priced.
There was still some doubt on our part, however. We wouldn't have a chance
to actually meet him in person until much closer to the wedding. We could
only hope we had made the right choice.
...Hey Tom,
We had a lot of different religions and ethnicities present at our wedding
and everyone left happy. Your creativity and ability to "read" the
crowd and make the event come to life was outstanding. You got to
know us and knew what each of us wanted, from my mom who is more
conservative to my sister who wanted the modern stuff to everything else in
between.
Thank you for an incredible job! We would definitely recommend you to any
event or party out there. You are meant for your job and know what you are
doing! Thank you so very much! Working with you was easy and pleasant!

Subject: Wedding Testimonial Tom was different – he gave us a reasonable
price right upfront, and assured us that he would give us everything the
other DJ’s were promising and more. It was exactly what we needed to hear at
such a stressful time!
____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Testimonial & a HUGE Thank You!
Dear Tom,
We can't begin to express how thrilled we are with how you "ran the show" at
our wedding! Even before the big day, you took the time to meet with us
(about a month ahead of time) and planned out then entire reception --
complete with an itinerary! Whenever we had a question or an idea for the
reception, we e-mailed you, and had an answer within hours [if that!]. Your
organization, exceptional knowledge of wedding planning, and constant
contact put the both of us at ease and made us feel completely comfortable
putting the night in your hands.
We were especially impressed with your musical selections. When James and I
were trying to explain our vastly different musical tastes to you, we felt
that we weren't even making sense; however, you intuitively knew what we
wanted and found a way to incorporate both of our tastes -- head-banging
rock & roll and pop. Bravo!
YOU made our night one to remember for the rest of our lives! We can't tell
you how many people commented on how wonderful you were ... with several
engaged friends, we have a feeling many of them will be booking you! You
were able to get so many people up on the floor and dancing ALL night long
-- before, during, and after dinner! There was not a single song where the
floor was empty. It was amazing to see!
You did an amazing job, and we could not be happier in our DJ selection. You
made our night unforgettable and put me at ease before the actual day. We
will be recommending you to all of our friends, family, and acquaintances!
We can't thank you enough!
God Bless,
Jen & James Ferrigno @ Waterview (Monroe)

Dear Tom...Below is my testimonial: Tom is a true professional! He not only helped me plan one wedding, he helped my husband and I plan two of our weddings. We had a traditional Indian wedding as well as a justice of the peace ceremony. Both weddings were large events. Two weddings would be a daunting task for any bride; however, Tom seamlessly guided me through each step of planning process for both events. Tom had many helpful suggestions and tips, which helped create a smooth wedding process for me. He made sure that each detail of the reception and ceremony were addressed and planned out carefully. Tom worked with Peter and me closely both months and two weeks before our weddings to ensure that we had music playlists that we loved! He was able to create a fun as well as romantic Indian music playlist for the Indian wedding as well as an American music playlist for the justice of the peace ceremony, which would please all generations. I highly recommend Tom’s services. My cousin will be using Tom for her wedding this upcoming April. Tom, thank you for making our weddings both memorable and fun events!

Thank you for making it such a great night Stephanie and Rob Reardon- married September 7, 2011 @ Bill Miller's Castle _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Tom!
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tom, It was so great working with you! We really appreciated you meeting with us twice before the wedding to go over all the details, it made the day much less stressful as we knew we wouldn't have to worry about the music! Also, thank you for going along with our last minute (or second) changes! During the ceremony you were professional and most importantly - fun! You worked well with our family, friends and photographer, which made everything stress free for us.
It was everything we hoped for and more, you not only played all the songs we asked for, but were able to feel out the crowd and kept everyone (from 13 - 85) dancing literally all night long. And a huge thank you for playing the additional 30/45 minutes! Our friends and family are still talking about how much fun they had dancing! We had family members out dancing that we have never seen dance before!
I think you set the tone for the entire ceremony with your laid back, yet professional interaction style with all our guests. We would without doubt recommend you to any engaged couples planning their big day.
If fun is what people are looking for, Tom is the man for the job. We were so impressed with you that we wish we could have bought you a drink at the end of the night!

Soc. – Siobhan 860 759-2296 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Tom, I'm writing in red to stress how wonderful you were at our wedding! First, we loved that you were able to go out of your way to meet with us. You were very fun to work with, were well organized and explained things very clearly. You showed an honest interest in us, and were very funny. Also, Great Price! The Reception was wonderful! We can't stress it enough! You were sharp and energetic and played exactly what we wanted the whole time! We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. The introductions were very clear, and we especially liked how you catered to everyone's needs. Everything was Perfect! Outstanding in all areas! Must we say anymore?! You were ...Very Professional - A+!...Music Selection was Top-Notch - A+!...Interaction and Atmosphere Great - A+! We would absolutely recommend you! Tom, you were an outstanding DJ. We have been to many weddings and never seen a superb DJ like you. All of our family spoke very highly of you and have recommended you to many people. Thank you sooo much for everything!

See their wedding clips on my Facebook page!) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hi Tom...
From our first meeting with you at our home (and your wonderful attitude with our ginormous dog!) to the very end of the reception, it has been a pleasure. We never stressed about anything in regards to music and entertainment, knowing that we were in the best of hands! That trust was never misplaced for a second, as the entire evening was perfect (just as we knew it would be). I have to admit, my only complaint is that the many weddings we have attended since that glorious day have been a bit anti-climatic in regards to music and dancing :) No DJ has measured up yet! We are STILL getting cards, phone calls and emails about what a hit the evening was - so your wonderful professionalism and obvious skill continues to ring daily. (I need to forward you some pictures from the conga line and YMCA - my GRANDMOTHER was even wearing the policeman hat!)
If you ever come across anyone who has doubts about your ability to get people
up and going, just tell them about how you actually had to announce dinner to
have the jammed dance floor cleared... Our relatives are still talking about the
fact that they would have danced right through their entrees without a second
thought :)
So basically I'm trying to say, "thank you for the best night of our lives!"

did for our wedding. Both Rick and I knew we left my wedding in the right
hands when we received our wedding itinerary from you. The attention to
detail left us worry free the day of our wedding. You thought of everything.
There was so much we hadn't even considered and you took care of it all. We
were most impressed with the itinerary you put together. From the ceremony,
cocktail hour, announcements, first dances, last dances, cake cutting,
anniversary dance, etc. everything was well planned. You came to our home a
few days before the wedding well-prepared with songlists for every possible
event for the wedding. Thank you for everything Tom!!! You had every bit to do with the success
of our day!!!
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tom,
I just wanted to let you know what a great time we had! You really made our night special!
Everyone got out on the dance floor. I was so worried about everyone not having a great time but everyone did! You were able to get all ages out onto the dance floor.
We can't thank you enough for help making this day truly one to remember not just for us but for everyone.
Thanks again, Kristen & Dan Estrom June 18, 2011 @ Yale Graduate Club khanscome@aol.com ____________________________________________________________________________ Hi Tom, Thank you so much for the great music. Everybody was very happy. The guests especially liked that they could request music all afternoon, and they loved the great selection of the music. We were very happy with you!
Thanks again for the great wedding! Marika and Lou Hosszu July 9, 2011 @ Stony Hill Inn simo.marika@yahoo.com ____________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Tom- Thank you so much for the hard work and time you invested in our wedding. You really did go above and beyond, right from the start. You came out to meet with us the very first time, at our house. That was really great, made things so much easier for us, especially during that time when we were running around most nights after work, meeting with vendors-- it was a welcome change! So, Thanks again for that bonus! As soon as we met with you, you made us feel comfortable, and after about ten minutes, we were all joking around like we were old friends. You went over everything with us in great detail, so we had no questions once you left. As soon as you left us, Noah and I looked at each other and knew we wanted you to be part of our day, there was no "sleeping on it". And as far as I go, I seemed to change my mind numerous times, about so many aspects of the wedding, but you were a definite! You met with us a week or two before the wedding, helped us map out the day, and you allowed us the opportunity to make changes up to the day before the wedding, which was great. We had such a great time during our planning session with you. Stress levels got high as the wedding got closer, and the session was fun, relaxed and we planned out exactly what we wanted all at the same time. The day of the wedding-- wow, what an amazing day. From the minute I arrived at Anthony's there you were, making sure we were ready to go. From the ceremony, to the reception- things went smoothly. I couldn't have asked for anything better. You truly cared about us, and making sure we had a great, memorable day- and that separates you from the rest. Its not just a job for you, and that is quite clear from the time we initially met, all the way thru our day. All of our guests have said to us what a great job you did. I was amazed 90% of our guests were still out on the dance floor when you were wrapping up the reception. No one wanted to miss out and leave early. And, even my Dad- who's a tough one to impress, had a blast, he thinks you did such a great job, he only has wonderful things to say (and way to keep quiet during our father/daughter dance LOL) Thanks again Tom, your an all around great guy, who we truly enjoyed working with every step of the way. Thank you for making our wedding day, all that we dreamed of and more. Noah, and I both hope to have the opportunity to work with you, or be at an event your working! Thanks again for everything!!! We love you!!!!! Anything we can do for you, just let us know. Feel free to pass along my email to any future clients. Love, Alyson & Noah Thompson June 11, 2011 at Anthony's Ocean View alyson.gersz@gmail.com __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tom, Thank you SO much for everything!!! Everything was absolutely perfect and our wedding was just how we envisioned it: everyone up having a blast!! We really appreciate you helping it go so smoothly and making sure everyone had a wonderful time. I know this is a little thing, but we really liked how you had the tables pass the napkins after the toast to see who would be getting people up dancing and who would be in charge of drinks. It got people laughing and it avoided that awkward silence that sometimes happens after everyone claps and cheers after the toast right before the conversations start back up. It was a small touch, but it was great! You are such a great DJ and your experience with weddings definitely shows! I will recommend your services to anyone I know who is getting married in the future! Thank you again for everything!! Dana & Jeff…PS. Love that you made a cd of our music for us!!! What a great gift, thank you! :) Dana and Jeff Kivlin…married June 4, 2011 @ Avon Old Farms dufnal@une.edu ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Tom! n conclusion, the reception was great, with the music, lights,
organization, plus GREAT DJ. We could tell you really enjoy your job, and we
thank you for sharing your love of entertainment with us. You have
made our wedding more memorable than we could have imagined. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I Highly recommend Tom Salatto and Starry
Nite Entertainment. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Hi
Tom, ____________________________________________________________________________________ Hey Tom!!! I've been meaning to get in touch with you. We want to thank you for everything preceding and on our wedding day! I was going through a box of things from the reception and came across the CD that you made us! I can't listen to one song without crying!! Thank you again! Although we didn't have many dancers( I warned you!) You helped make our special day a success! Thanks again! Megan and Chris DiMetro - Small Sunday morn. Wedding @ Cascades on April 10, 2011 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Tom, (Jeff)...I did love the wedding! Everyone had a great time. I really appreciate how you did the tribute to my dad so seamlessly. I have been to plenty of weddings where the DJ can't even get the names right. You went above and beyond!!! I feel a DJ can make or break a wedding.. You sir, made it!! My aunt sent me an email the other day because her friends son is getting married and she said " I have to tell her about your DJ". I obliged and gave her your info. (Steph)...We got such positive feedback on the music choices. I was concerned a Sunday morning Wedding would be low key. You removed those concerns from the introductions, which you did flawlessly, including the tribute to my husband's father. That was no easy task with 19 total party members. We knew from our first meeting that you were the right DJ. Thank you for the awesome memories for us and our guests. Thank you again and know you made the day awesome!!

Hi Tom,
Everyone - and I mean EVERYONE - had a good time! The music was absolutely perfect. You really listened to us when we told you what kind of music we liked. The speakers were set up perfectly and you could hear the music through the whole place, and the lights were awesome. You made sure everything ran smoothly the whole night and kept control of our time line, which was great.
Thanks again for making our wedding so special! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dear Tom,
We're glad that you enjoyed our selection for our first dance so much that
you've recommended it to another bride. Thank you Hendrix for such a beauty.
We also owe you a big thanks which is below in a "testimonial" format...
I had no idea where to start or how
to handle the task of DJing our wedding. But rest assured- TOM KNOWS! We
were involved, and Tom was too- so once we found one another (our friends
recommended him after he did a stellar job on their day) my anxiety went
from a roaring boil to a soft simmer. Steve and I are interested in so many
different types of music that we were perplexed on how to work our favorites
into the day. Tom took our requests and paired them with his knowledge to
create an eclectic event of mingling, dining and dancing. There was music
for everyone- our friends commented on how fun it was to hear Phish and The
Yeah Yeah Yeahs while our family all joined in to sing Sweet Caroline at the
top of their lungs during dinner. Once the formalities were complete- Tom
popped up on the dance floor doing a jig which sparked a chain reaction of
fun. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dear Tom, You were amazing! Everyone commented how you joined right into the festivities with the conga line etc. You sure put me at ease when I needed you and were always available for questions and answers.
Anybody who gets this DJ is considered LUCKY!! He did a wonderful job on our wedding day and really listened to what we wanted in song selections. I highly recommend Tom and his company!
Tom was awesome! My husband and I were truly blessed to have such a wonderful DJ that could just keep everything in control on our ‘Wedding Day”.
We met with Tom prior to our wedding at our house for music selections and told him what artists/choices we preferred, and Tom made sure to play all our song selections. He also had great suggestions how we could budget our time with our reception being we only had 41/2 hours by cutting our cocktail hour to ½ hr instead of 1 hour. It worked out perfectly because it left my guests with enough time for dancing and enjoying themselves. Tom was very involved and made our wedding fun so many of my guests asked me WHO WAS THAT DJ??
I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND Tom for any kind of wedding, or even party you will not be disappointed - no need to worry having this DJ he will definitely make your day unforgettable! (…this is the testimonial!)

Thank you so very much! Your Professionalism is unmatched! You kept everyone moving, dancing and having a great time. Everyone loved the music (and your lightshow - the lights were perfect for the tent!). Our whole family keeps talking about the wedding - no one wanted it to end! We all loved how you joined right in and became part of our celebration. Even the two flower girls could not stop dancing all night! We loved getting to know you and becoming comfortable with you in regards to taking care of our requests and our reception. We met with many DJs and felt we were being given a story. You are so down to earth and personable, we felt you were able to understand what we were looking for and wanted. Our reception was amazing! We loved coming in to Ghostbusters! The Pictures look great, and the bouquet/garter were fun, even though I tossed the bouquet clear across the room (lol). Even the Cake-Cutting went well! The whole night was like a fairy tale, and we thank you so much for making it amazingly wonderful...All our Dreams came True!

Tom, And every time we met with you, we could feel your genuine enthusiasm and excitement to share our special day with us! You helped us to keep calm amidst all the craziness by taking charge and coordinating with the venue and our photographer to ensure our day went so smoothly! We put our complete faith in you and we were not disappointed! You did a wonderful job using what we provided about the songs we wanted and our likes/dislikes and incorporating them into our night. Our guests have raved about the song selection and how great your personality is! You got everyone involved and helped us to make memories that will last forever. We are your biggest fans and we would recommend you to anyone without hesitation. Thank you again for being a part of our special day!

Dear Tom, It was Fantastic! You are one of the easiest people to get along with and work with. You listened to our requests and emails and helped out where you could. I thought the best part was your organization and control of the wedding. You discussed with us during the wedding, the schedule, and everything went smoothly because of it. You read the crowd well, even played the Napkin game, :-) and everyone had a super time. Thank you so much again for your help, organization, efficiency and fun spirit! We loved our wedding!

From
WeddingWire.com... Tom is great; he's so flexible and easy to work with. I gave him a huuuuge list of songs and told him only to work off that. And to not take requests. I was pretty controlling, but he was so reassuring, saying it was our day and he was there to make it great for us. He met with us and sat with us for over an hour going over the schedule and what we wanted when and coordinating all the music with us beforehand. Everyone danced all night; Tom was great in making my crazy playlist into workable reception music. Ceremony music was also fantastic; he was able to find some obscure versions of songs I wanted on a few days notice. I would DEFINITELY recommend Tom, he's a great value and so professional. He's been doing it forever and knows all the ins and outs. Thanks Tom!!! Yvonne and Ed Rudeck October 10, 2010 at the Nutmeg. |

Hi Tom, We just got back from our honeymoon, so we have had no time to post a review yet, however rest assured that we will be posting a glowing review for you. We received so many compliments from our guests on how great the music was, and we really appreciated the time you spent getting to know us and our tastes. In all honesty the most special moment of the
reception
for Jessica and myself was unscripted, unplanned, and totally made by you |

Dear Tom, We had the time of our lives, largely due to all the work and thought you put into our wedding. We want to thank you for making it such a pleasure and making our wedding complete. Our reception was everything that we wanted it to be. Our dance floor was packed from the first dance song of the night until the last. We had people come up to us and tell us they have NEVER danced so much in their entire lives. That can only be attributed to having an amazing DJ. We wanted a non-stuffy party and that is exactly what we got! Music choices were excellent and fit the crowd, without us having to provide a detailed list! Excellent read of both us as a couple and our guests. The Pre-Wedding Consultation was perfect. All of our questions were answered and all our ideas explored. All our phone calls were always returned right away and our meetings were always relaxed and fun. We cancelled our original DJ plans because we were so impressed. The Music for the CEREMONY itself was AMAZING! We asked a lot with our ceremony music and got it. It was exactly what we wanted. Our guests can't stop talking about how unique it was and how well it fit our personalities. Also, we weren't an easy bunch to get together for the Reception Announcements, but it was flawless. You managed to get everyone together in an order they were happy with. Our bridal party and family felt like rock stars and that made us happy. Announcements throughout the reception were fun, and who doesn't love a DJ that comes out and dances with them?!? Of course we would recommend you and Starry Nite Entertainment! Thank you for everything. James and Erica Battisti - embparalegal@hotmail.com / battistij50@yahoo.com - Married June 6 - Farmington Club (Starry Nite Entertainment...www.StarryNiteDJs.com)

Dear Tom,
Planning my Wedding was something that I had thought about since i was a little girl. I was overwhelmed with joy when my now husband asked me to marry him. I honestly thought that I would never meet "Mr. Right".
I met Tom while at David's Bridal and he assured me that I would have the
best party that anyone as ever been to. He was so right. Since my wedding I have
not spoke with one person that was in attendance that didn't not have an
amazing time. Many of my guests have told my husband and I that it was the best
wedding that they have ever been to. Tom truly did an amazing job. I was
more than pleased. He took the time to meet with my husband and I to make sure
that we had exactly what we wanted.
I would recommend him to anyone that is asking for a top quality DJ.

We had such a great time at the

everything to make sure it was all taken care of and you knew exactly what
we wanted!! Several guests commented how great it was that you were sensitive to
the volume of music for the older guests. It really was a great experience
for such a great price!!! We recommend you to anyone looking for an upbeat
DJ who knows what they’re doing and is affordable!!! Thanks Again!!! |

Tom, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your services at our
wedding a few weeks ago! Your professionalism and quality is only surpassed by
your flexibility and desire to help and serve your customers. Even when we
changed our song choices the night before the wedding, you and your crew were
not only able to meet, but exceed our expectations. You are easy to reach, great
at returning emails/phone calls and ran the detailed events of our night
beautifully. Every one of our guests had positive comments about our day, and
much of that credit belongs to you. Thank you again, next time we get married-
we will be sure to call you! -- Rich & Christina Reynolds - Married August 21, 2010 Mill on the River - drreynoldsphd@yahoo.com |

Tom , You did a great job yesterday in 'steering the ship'. You were very attentive to our needs and wants, yet were sensitive to our guests' requests as well. It's obvious that you understood my/our peculiar tastes, which i know was no easy feat. Most of all, Kirk and I both agreed you found a great balance between being 'seen and not heard' (kirk's preference) and not hijacking the day. Again, great job. All the best, Lynda Salzman Mettler - July 4th wedding New Haven Country Club … lynnsalz02@yahoo.com (Starry Nite Entertainment...www.StarryNiteDJs.com) |

Dear Tom, We really enjoyed being able to meet with you and go over our whole playlist in detail before the wedding. It also helped us to get to know each other. We LOVED how the reception went...we loved the witty comments and how you kept everything on track. We are STILL getting raves from our friends for how much fun they had! The Music Selection was perfect for everyone from our parents, to older relatives to our friends (who Really enjoyed it!) AND we loved how YOU joined the party! We LOVED having an interactive DJ - not just one who played music and made announcements. Kate gave you an "A+" review on the KNOT.com, and we continue to refer you to friends and family! We LOVED it!...Loomis D'Amico (see Kate's TheKnot.com review below...)
From TheKnot.com... DJ: Tom Salatto from Starry Nite Entertainment: A+...~Tom was awesome! He has such a great personality and kept the dance floor packed all night. He did our music for everything, the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all for only $900! He owns Starry Nite Entertainment so you only have to pay for his services, not his services and for the company. He's been in the business for over 20 years so he knows how to make sure everything runs smoothly and is very professional. He was an awesome MC, was funny and witty, and even got out on the dance floor with everyone and headed up the conga line. I highly suggest him for everyone still looking for a dj ...

Dear Tom, You did a beautiful job with everything! Our family and friends were very pleased with your interaction – the Conga Line you led was a big hit! They keep telling us that they can’t remember such a positive atmosphere at a wedding! You kept everyone busy, and we appreciate that the music wasn’t too loud for the people sitting – it was perfect! It was a great time getting to know you (and you getting to know us) when you made the effort to come to our home and be in our environment to plan the wedding and give us recommendations. Overall, you were so professional – a positive and great host. I couldn’t be more pleased with our choice. Again, many complimented your work; all had a wonderful time. You made our wedding so memorable and perfect. Thank you so much! I would definitely recommend you!

Dear Tom, It was a memorable, creative fun-filled day! James and I want to thank you. We really liked the personal attention we received during the home visit to plan the wedding. The Ceremony Music was Great, and the announcements were well correlated with all the children and the wedding party. Overall you were interactive with everyone and quick to find requested songs at the last minute. We would recommend you to everyone! Again, it was memorable and great fun!

Hi Tom!
Christian and I cannot express how thrilled we were with our wedding
reception!!! You truly made our wedding party a great night! You were
so professional and helpful from the moment we booked our wedding with you to
the end of the last song you played for us that night. Your willingness to go
out of your way to help with the whole wedding process really blew us
away! You knew how to read the crowd and played the right mix with impeccable
timing. You are a fantastic DJ, no doubt about it! Anyone would be lucky to
have you as part of their special night. We cannot recommend you highly
enough and I hope we'll have occasion to book you again! THANK YOU!!!"
Sincerely yours,
Julie & Christian Miller julie0202@att.net

Hey Tom, Thank you for all your hard work at our wedding. It was a pleasure working with you, from the moment we met you at the pre-wedding consultation until the day of our wedding. You are very personable, easy to work with, and all of our guests were really impressed with your service...they even had a good laugh as they remembered dancing with you! You played a great variety of music, including some Christmas and Italian which our guests LOVED! You also paid extra attention to details and made sure everything went perfectly when we were introduced as "Mr. & Mrs" (and all announcements), and did a great job timing the cake cutting and garter toss.. Overall, you were very professional, and dependable (as the weather was icy out that day, you still managed to make it there without any problem) your wife was a pleasure to work with as well. Relatives that are always too embarrassed to get up and dance were dancing all night long! You got along well with other vendors, even though you were by far more professional than some. Dom and I could tell you were having a great time too, and would have kept playing all night. The night just flew by and we appreciate all the wonderful memories. We will definitely recommend you in the future! Dominic and Kirsten Marino - December Kpratt8213@gmail.com (Starry Nite Entertainment...www.StarryNiteDJs.com) |

Hello Tom,
Sorry it's been a bit since our big day.....I wanted to write back to you to
let you know that everyone had such a great time at our wedding. The day was
perfect and you delivered on your promise to keep the dance floor hoping the
entire time. It was such a great feeling to look back on the party and see all
the guests shaking their thang in the center of the room...and beyond:)
You kept everyone up from the very young to the "not so" young;) Please feel free to post our email in case anyone would like to contact us in regard to your services.
Thanks again for a grand time!!

Tom, You are the BEST!!!!!!!!!! Steve and I can't thank you enough for the great (professional) job you had done to make our Night Perfect. The song choices were great. I couldn't believe all the dancers. Thank you for the Carlton Dance - the GUYS LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are still receiving great words on how good you were. We would recommend you to friends and family and hopefully we can have you play again for something special. August 2010...Tom is Great! he captured each moment with a piece of music that will forever live on in our photos. He never stopped the music and had everyone on their feet. I have been married for 11 months and now were 7 months pregnant. I could have never found any one else to play for our wedding reception.
Thank you (Starry Nite Entertainment...www.StarryNiteDJs.com) |

Hey Tom, We would like to thank you so much for helping us celebrate this very special day. We were more than impressed with you as a DJ and loved the entire night. It was exactly what we wanted and always dreamed of. Matt and I had an excellent experience throughout the entire process with you. It went smoothly since the first time we met at David’s Bridal. Yes, you can use us as a reference for your company. Again thank you for an outstanding night.

Dear Tom, Again, you were fantastic! Thank you (and your son) for everything, and for staying late with us. You truly made the party fun, exciting, and overall fabulous time. We loved working with you! First of all, your personality and enthusiasm brings people right in and makes them feel comfortable. Breaking down the events of the night during our Consultation was most helpful since neither of us had a clue about the events, dances and order! The announcements and accompanying music were wonderful! You captured each moment and we loved how each event (walking in, Cake, Garter, etc.) had its own timing and special moment rather than everything blurring into one another. Each was fun and distinct, with a different feel. Overall, it was absolutely wonderful. You took charge over what happened (in a good way) like talking to the wedding party about walking in, gathering everyone for cake, interacting with people throughout the night, instead of just pushing play - you were warm, inviting, funny and professional. Everyone can see you genuinely wanted it to be a good time! Of course we would recommend you! Email ajoy417@yahoo.com. Again, thank you!

Hey Tom, We just got back from our honeymoon in Cancun last night. We had a great time and both agreed the music arrangement allowed everyone to have a great time, and get up and be involved. Great job!! Although the food was brought out unexpectedly early, people have said they were happy with not having to wait for all the "festivities". So what wasn't planned by me, turned out to be a good thing for everyone else I guess. Thanks for keeping tabs on all that though, otherwise we may have not gotten to everything we planned out. Take care, glad you and your son had fun, even if he had fun at your expense :) August 2010...Tom, I posted some photos from our awesome wedding (click here for Starry Nite's Facebook Page to see photos). Everyone had such a great time and said it was truly the best wedding they had ever attended (they could have just been being nice!!). The crew came to pick up the dance floor but we wouldn't get off, the tunes kept on coming!!! Thanks again, I posted some photos on your site.

Dear Tom, You made our day! Thank you so very much. God Bless You! It started with our Pre-Wedding Consultation, which made us very comfortable, and was very thorough. The music for the ceremony was excellent and sweet, and everyone loved our entrance with the Brady Bunch theme! Also, the music throughout the reception was great. Everyone there loved your service, and we would both recommend you. You're the best D.J. I've ever seen!

Dear Tom, We had the best time of our lives! I didn't want it to be over! We can't thank you enough. We loved that you came to us to meet. The effort to meet at our house was appreciated. The reception Announcements were well timed, and we appreciate your last minute flexibility with schedule-of-event changes. And the music was perfect! Exactly as planned! Everyone said they danced the ENTIRE NIGHT and had a wonderful time! We had a blast! You really were able to feel the crowd and keep everyone on the dance floor (even the older people). You were very professional and listened to our requests (and our "do not play" list!). I cannot imagine a better night or a better DJ! I would definitely recommend you!

Hi Tom, Great to hear from you! Matt and I had an amazing time at our wedding. We were so impressed how you kept everything organized and on schedule. The mix of songs you played was perfect; many of our guests complimented the variety of songs, and everyone enjoyed them. I don't think there was a moment when the dance floor wasn't packed. I know everyone had a blast! Thank you again for helping to make our day perfect. We would definitely recommend Starry Nite Entertainment to any couple!

Dear Tom, Everything was Great! Since our reception was non-traditional you did a great job making us happy. As a professional your attention to detail was remarkable, the music selection was perfect - you knew the "tone" we wanted and we were both pleased. You were great at getting people up and going, and very effective at involving the crowd - especially in our unique setting. It was very important to me that my wedding didn't resemble "traditional" wedding receptions - you were great about respecting my wishes and did a tremendous job delivering a perfect reception. I would absolutely recommend your services! Thank you for being so "adaptable". We will definitely contact you in the future or refer you to our friends and family.

Dear Tom, We had the time of our lives, largely due to all the work and thought you put into our wedding. We want to thank you for making it such a pleasure and making our wedding complete. Our reception was everything that we wanted it to be. Our dance floor was packed from the first dance song of the night until the last. We had people come up to us and tell us they have NEVER danced so much in their entire lives. That can only be attributed to having an amazing DJ. We wanted a non-stuffy party and that is exactly what we got! Music choices were excellent and fit the crowd, without us having to provide a detailed list! Excellent read of both us as a couple and our guests. The Pre-Wedding Consultation was perfect. All of our questions were answered and all our ideas explored. All our phone calls were always returned right away and our meetings were always relaxed and fun. We cancelled our original DJ plans because we were so impressed. The Music for the CEREMONY itself was AMAZING! We asked a lot with our ceremony music and got it. It was exactly what we wanted. Our guests can't stop talking about how unique it was and how well it fit our personalities. Also, we weren't an easy bunch to get together for the Reception Announcements, but it was flawless. You managed to get everyone together in an order they were happy with. Our bridal party and family felt like rock stars and that made us happy. Announcements throughout the reception were fun, and who doesn't love a DJ that comes out and dances with them?!? Of course we would recommend you and Starry Nite Entertainment!

Dear Tom, A long overdue THANK YOU for your above and beyond performance at our wedding on August 16, 2008. We were so busy planning the wedding that we didn’t give much thought to our song list. We have no regrets letting you clearly do what you do best. Your music selections matched the mood of both the night and our guests. Everyone had a great time and the music certainly had a lot to do with the success of the wedding. The dance floor was packed all evening. You did a fabulous job coordinating with the band. You provided us with an exceptional evening that will be long remembered by ourselves, friends, and family. I would recommend your services (Starry Nite Entertainment) to anyone planning a wedding, party, family function or work event. Your enthusiasm and professionalism shined through from the planning stage to the last dance. Feel free to list me as a reference.

Dear Tom, We cannot express to you how overjoyed we were with our Wedding Reception at the Foxon Country House. You helped us take a rather difficult situation and turn it into a really fun time with your sense of humor and your music. All our guests had such fun, and my family in particular really appreciated your selection of oldies and Spanish music. It was more than we ever expected, and they had a great time because of you. That's all a new bride and groom could hope for from their wedding reception, and you made it very special. Lou and I would definitely recommend you to any bride/groom looking to have a great, fun reception. You truly care about what you do, and it shows.
