"Your DJ is amazing!". That was the sentiment my wife and I kept hearing over and over again from our guests at our wedding on October 8th at Franklin Commons. Joel was super professional each and every step of the way. He was like a musical cowboy the way he corralled everyone from the wedding party up before the big entrances. He made sure he had all of the names and pronunciations, even if they were nicknames! Even with us putting together what seemed like an endless amount of songs on the play list, Joel knew the right song to play at the right time. We gave Joel autonomy to mix in some other songs that he felt would keep the dance floor going. And unlike Ben Simmons he came through in the clutch! Every song choice was on point, the dance floor never had less than 50 people on it, and when Footloose came on you would have thought Kevin Bacon himself was out there as my wifes 90+ year old grandparents had seized the dance floor! In all sincerity, we can not say enough wonderful things about Joel Kupis. If you are looking for the ultimate professional, who makes this process smooth, who plays THE BEST wedding music, and has an announcing voice that rivals Dan Baker (Phillies fans will get this), then look no further. You have to hire THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND: JOEL KUPIS.
"So I CANNOT say enough good things about Joel. Before the wedding: We were originally supposed to be getting married on September 19, 2020. However, because of Covid-19, we scaled back the guest list and moved the date to June 29, 2020. This was a special day because its my parents 25th wedding anniversary, so it was a double event! Joel was SO FLEXIBLE and easy to work with even when my plans were changing. He spoke with me on the phone for over an hour about two weeks before the wedding and walked me through everything and had great ideas, suggestion and answers to all my questions. He also told me a bit about himself and what he had been doing lately. I felt that he made a very professional and sincere connection and that he was genuinely excited about the wedding. It didnt seem like just another gig to him. He was easy to get in contact with and always replied back quickly. I loved that he was upbeat and really personal. I have a really outgoing personality and he matched my enthusiasm every time we communicated! During the wedding: Joel showed up early and was so nice and professional and just all around easy to get along with. He made me feel so at ease about my time line even when I felt like we were running late and I was getting stressed. He played almost all the songs off my list (I had a really long one!!) and when I threw him last minute requests and even asked him to play certain songs twice he did it without hesitation. He went WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND and in my opinion took on the responsibility of making sure things went smoothly and he didnt just play music. My SIL said so appropriately " Man! the DJ was a rock star and a half!" Every one of my guests had nothing but great things to say about Joel and I couldnt think of a negative thing if I tried! I would absolutely hire him again when I have an event. Thanks again Joel. AMAZING JOB!"
"We didn’t have to worry about a single thing! Joel got everything we wanted and kept people on the dance floor the entire night. Joel also took the time to talk to us beforehand to make sure we were comfortable and happy. He was very easy to talk to and treated us like he really cared and not that he was just some dj hired to do a job. We can’t thank him enough!"
"Joel was fantastic!!! He provided the ultimate dance party!! Just when you think you were going to take a break, another good song came on and guests were right back to dancing!! He was so easy to work with, and so professional!! He made sure to communicate with me throughout the night to ensure I was happy with the music selection!! I highly recommend Joel for all your DJ needs!!! You wont be sorry!!! Thank You Joel!!! Wedding success!!"
"Working with Joel was absolutely amazing! From the very beginning, he made me feel comfortable and stress free. He played amazing songs and we only gave him the “most important ones”, he read the room and so many guests were raving about his work. We have a few cousins getting married and have already passed on his Information!"
"Joel was absolutely fantastic to work with. From the moment we met him on Zoom we knew he was the man for us! He was wonderful to work with as we planned our big day. He knew our vibe and kept the party going all night without skipping a beat. Our guests loved him and that he was giving them the vibes they wanted. We would definitely recommend Joel to anyone looking for a DJ! We cannot say enough great things about working with him!"
"Hands down the star of the night! Joel was the absolute best. Months later, our guests are still talking about how great of a time they had, and we 100% attribute that to the flow of the night, the amazing mixing skills, and the most epic playlist thought up by us yet played out and given life by Joel. I’ve recommended him to everyone I know looking for a DJ, and would hire him again in an instant for any future parties we may have. Thank you so much for everything!!!"
"Joel was amazing! He did such a great job and keeping the crowd going and on the dance floor. It was definitely hard to find time to stop dancing and take a break because the music was so good! He was super responsive to all of our emails and questions. Everyone at our wedding and after the wedding complimented him and said that he was amazing. He picked the best songs to play during the reception, we would 100% recommend him to anyone getting married!"
"We can’t say thank you enough to Joel. Joel was on time to set up and very responsive leading up to the wedding. He played every key song for us and did we mention his voice was worthy of a Super Bowl announcer. We cannot recommend him highly enough."
"Joel was great! He played music that had our party dancing and kept people on the dance floor! He even played other songs by the artist that did our first dance, even though the singer isnt necessarily mainstream. We were very impressed! All in all, everyone had great things to say and most importantly, my husband and I had a blast."
"Joel was perfect for our wedding!! We had such a blast! Every person was on the dance floor :)"
"Joel was an amazing dj!! we had a blast at our wedding and so did our guest and Joel was a huge reason that happened. He played amazing music and really kept everyone on the dance floor. I would highly recommend him as a dj and would gladly higher him again for any other event. I could not be more thrilled with how everything turned out! He was so professional and provided quality sound for the ceremony and reception! Thank you so much for everything Joel!"
"DJ Joel was the absolute best!! He kept the reception flowing smoothly and the music was absolutely perfect. He knew we wanted dance party club vibes and he totally delivered. Our dance floor was packed pretty much all night thanks to him and we’ve gotten so many compliments on the music since the wedding. Joel himself was also super friendly and professional all night. Cannot recommend enough!"
"Joel was AMAZING for my wedding at French Creek - if hes available, dont hesitate and book him ASAP!! He is so kind, incredibly knowledgable, and was exactly what I wanted in a DJ for my wedding. He set up a call with me beforehand to go over my notes, questions and songs, and completely understood what I was looking for in my music. He even (secretly) coordinated a very special first dance with my father, who wanted to surprise me with the song. It was the best part of my wedding, and Ill cherish that moment forever. The sound quality from the speakers and microphone were impeccable, and his setup is modern and classy. We also threw him a very last minute curveball of changing our first dance song about an hour beforehand, and he seamlessly made the change. It was perfect. I cant say enough great things about Joel. Thank you for making my special day perfect."
"Joel was OUSTANDING!! We had the best time at our wedding and a large part of that was because of his work. From his announcements of our family/friends being flawless, to editing songs for us, to keeping everyone up and dancing all night, we are so happy we picked him as our DJ. He was very friendly and responsive leading up to the day, and we received so many compliments from our guests on how good the music was. Thanks Joel!!"
"We absolutely loved Joel for our wedding! He was very informative with us when we had questions and worked seamlessly with our venue coordinator. I would recommend him to anyone for excellent service, and I even did during our night. He really stuck to our vision of the playlist and general vibe, adjusted to some schedule changes with the dances, and helped us feel at ease throughout it all! My husband and I even said the next day how great a choice he was for our wedding night."
"Everyone at the wedding could not stop ranting about how great Joel was!!! He did SUCH an amazing job. Between his feel for the room, communication with us, and running through the events of the night, everything went perfectly! 11/10 would recommend to anyone looking to have a blast at their wedding!"
"Joel was incredible! He played a great mix of music and everyone kept commenting on how amazing the DJ was. He was so friendly and professional and listened to all of our requests. I would hire Joel again in a heartbeat!"
"After a summer filled with other peoples weddings, so many of our friends came up to us on the dance floor to say that we had the best DJ, by far. Joel played a perfect mix of pop and classic wedding songs, and didnt let any songs run on too long. The dance floor was packed the whole time. Everything was absolutely perfect!"
"Joel was awesome! As I expect best practice for a DJ is not to play the same song twice in a night. My wife requested a previous played song and Joel happily played it! We all had a great time and I would recommend Joel for all your DJ needs!"
"DJ Joel kept the night flowing smoothly, and kept everyone on the dance floor right up until last song. He communicated really well leading up to the wedding, helped make great suggestions on planning the schedule for the night. Did SUPER well at being DJ and MC. We couldnt have picked a better DJ for our event!"
"Everyone has told us our wedding was the best wedding they have ever been to. I think a big part of that was the amount of dancing and the work of Joel. He kept the party going and played all of the songs we selected for him, as well as mixing in the other songs that fit the vibe and style we selected. Any party in the future he will always be considered!"
"Joel made our wedding day the most magical of all. His amazing presence, energy, creativity, and unquestionable talent made it the perfect day. We simply can't say enough how much we appreciate the care and attention he gave us. We did not anticipate our guests and friends telling us during our reception that we had the best dj ever. It was a great feeling. We have a very varied crowd with different ages and cultures and I've never seen them all dance so much, especially my mom. She said she danced more than she ever had in her life. We owe that all to Joel. Joel even played a few songs we forgot to add to our list!! My dad had a surprise song for us recorded by a friend and he gave it Joel on a cd that day and Joel incorporated it so smoothly into the reception. Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception were in 3 different places in our venue and Joel had 3 different set-ups to make sure that the music flowed smoothly from one part to the next. During the reception, Joel came up to us to clarify one of our toasts (and suggested an improvement that we instantly agreed on!) and kept an eye on us to make sure that we were happy with the songs that were playing. During the best man's speech, he mentioned a Matchbox Twenty concert, and the first song Joel played after the toasts was by them, with no notice or prompting. He got absolutely everything right! Thank you just isn't enough. We will sing his praises to anyone that will hear and would not think of anyone else for any event we ever have. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
"Joel made our wedding unforgettable!! I’ve never been to a wedding where people were so engaged in the celebration and Joel is 100% to thank for that. He is extremely easy to communicate with and is extremely interested in making the entire experience tailored to how you want it. Absolutely above and beyond expectations. Book him for any event and you won’t be disappointed!!"
"I’m less then 24 hours after my wedding and I have to say, if you’re looking for a DJ stop right now and hire Joel. He did both our ceremony and reception and it was unbelievable. He’s great on the mic, plays everything you want to hear, and gets everyone on the dance floor. Thank you so much Joel it was incredible it wouldn’t have been the same without you."
"Joel was amazing and everyone was up dancing. We heard from so many guests afterwards tell us how great he was."
"Joel dj'd our daughters Sweet 16 party! The guests ranged from 6 years to 70 years old and he kept everyone dancing all night long! We sent him a playlist in advance and he was very accommodating! We received so many compliments about Joel from our guests! He is definitely the best dj around!"
Joel was awesome! Very attentive, great music selection to get every guest on there feet until the very end! Joel was also very easy to work with. I wanted to do a daddy daughter mashup for our first dance. Joel was able to put a mashup together with plenty of time to prepare. 😊 I literally danced the night away. He kept everything running smoothly and the transitions between songs were seamless. I would hire Joel again in a heartbeat!!!
"Joel is the man!! Even though our event was last minute he showed up and rocked the place like he had it planned for months! I will absolutely be using him again personally and for our firehouse events! Never met a better DJ! Can’t wait to have him back!"
"Joel is very professional and super laid back, all at the same time. My husband and I loved how he walked us through his process and helped us pick our songs for cutting our cake, dancing, and dinner. He is super helpful when you need suggestions but also lets you take the lead and tell him all the songs you do and don't want played on your big day. Throughout our reception, Joel kept our guests engaged and the music only got better as the night went on!"
"Joel did an excellent job DJing for my wedding. The dance floor was full during the entire reception and I had lots of friends asking where I had found such an awesome DJ. Even when I had to change plans last minute due to weather issues, he was so accommodating and professional. I did not have to worry about a thing thanks to his efforts! Joel is dedicated to what he does and I would recommend his services to anyone!"
