Paul is very organized and professional. Was on top of the things he needed from me. Which is great because, with all that is going on it helped that he knew what I needed to do, because I didn't half the time. The music and timing at the wedding was great. I do not have one complaint. I would absolutely recommend him. I actually have to my other 4 friends that are getting married later this year.

If you are looking for a true professional who is personable, knowledgable, and affordable, then I highly recommend that you hire DJ Paul.
My now husband and I hired Paul to DJ our wedding ceremony and reception and we could not be happier with our decision. From the start it was very evident that DJ Paul is extremely good at what he does. He was very organized at all of our meetings and was extremely forthcoming with anything that we needed without nickel and diming us like most other DJ companies will try to do. I think what impressed me the most with Paul is that he was very good about keeping an open line of communication. Paul will not be a vendor that you feel like you have to chase down, he will be the one to call you! My husband and I both had very hectic schedules around the time of our wedding with outside obligations, so it was very reassuring to know that Paul was on top of his job at all times. This took so much stress off of my husband and I. Paul is very thorough and really strives to give you exactly what you want. He truly wants his clients to be happy with the results no matter what.
Paul is also very versatile with what he is capable of delivering. With our wedding, we really weren't sure what to expect from our guests. We had a very small wedding and it was primarily a much older crowd. The majority of our guest traveled into town and on top of everything most hadn't seen each other in a long time. We really didn't expect much dancing going into it, but weren't sure. We told Paul that we just wanted him to read the crowd. If our guests just wanted to socialize then we wanted him to provide subtle background music that would allow the guests to just talk. And if the guests wanted to dance, then he could pick up the pace with the music. Our older crowd definitely decided to socialize and reconnect with each other. Paul instantly knew this and played the appropriate music accordingly.
Overall, we couldn't be any happier with our selection of our DJ. Our ceremony music was flawless and our reception went off without any hiccups. Our guests raved about how perfect our music was throughout the whole event and how much they enjoyed DJ Paul. Our guests also raved over "The Shoe Game" that Paul suggested that my husband and I play during the reception. In addition to impressing our guest, Paul also made an impression on our venue. Our wedding coordinador was so impressed with Paul that they asked if he would become one of their preferred vendors.
Paul, thank you so much for everything you did for us. You are wonderful at what you do and you made our wedding day so personalized and special. I will definitely be recommending your services to anyone that I know who is looking for a DJ and if we ever need a DJ in the future you will be our first call!

DJ Paul was set apart from the get-go for two reasons: price and portfolio. He has very reasonable rates (we got him for well under $1,000) AND he actually shows samples of his work on his website! We couldn't find any other DC-area DJ who had videos of him/her in action. These were the primary reasons we met with him in the first place. Upon meeting with him, tho, my fiance and I felt confident that even though he charged a lot less than others we had talked with, DJ Paul would be a professional and reliable vendor, someone who would really put us and our needs first. DJ Paul made it clear that we were the ones in charge as clients; he didn't try to impose his will for our wedding music experience on us. As the big day approached DJ Paul kept in touch and went over every last detail with us, from the pronunciation of the officiant's name to the special songs that would be playing throughout the night during our entrances, cake-cutting, last dance, etc.
On the day itself he showed up early (as he said he would) and brought a lot of energy (but not the cheesy kind). His attention to detail was right-on: he kept us on track by sticking to the timeline we had established, he announced my MOH's recent birthday so she could have the spotlight for a moment, which really touched her, and he even announced the weather conditions in our honeymoon locale at the end of the nite to make our guests jealous, haha! I got compliments both during and after the reception on DJ Paul because, as promised, he kept the dance floor going. That was all I wanted, and I got it.
If you want someone who is professional, knows what he's doing, and will get even the most reserved people on the dance floor, I recommend DJ...

Paul was a pleasure to work with. It was clear from the very beginning that he wanted nothing more then to make us happy. He was adamant that making our reception flow smoothly was his top priority and was in constant contact with me to ask questions and get to know us so that he could be prepared on our special day. My husband was skeptical about hiring a DJ because he thought we could handle things on our own but at the end of the night we were beyond thankful that we had Paul there to announce the menu choices, special dances, speeches, surprise cake, etc. I wasn't sure that our friends and family would be up for a lot of dancing but Paul had everyone out on the dance floor for the majority of the night. He also forced all of our guests to sign the guest book (that's not an understatement, he really did force them, it was great :-). His energy and enthusiasm were contagious and as promised, he helped to make our reception a truly memorable evening. He made sure that we stuck to our time line and kept the entire evening running smoothly. I would highly recommend using Paul for any special event. He is reliable, fun and easy to work with. Thanks for a great evening Paul!

Dj Paul was AMAZING from start to finish! I could not have asked for a better dj. When I contacted Paul for the first time he responded to me within minutes. I had spoke with two other dj's and it took them days...even weeks to get back to me. Dj Paul responded to every email and phone call very quickly. First time meeting dj Paul my fiance & I hired him right on the spot! Not only is he a great dj but he cares about his client's. He takes his work very seriously and makes sure the bride and groom are happy. Dj Paul was very flexible with meeting with us. On my wedding day he was there on time and set up. His is equipment is very nice and he provided microphones which we needed since my ceremony was outdoors. Dj Paul did an awesome job with the music and all of the introductions. My fiance and I were on a budget and Paul worked with us and made everything happen :) I have NOTHING negative to say about dj Paul. I recommend him to ALL future brides! You won't be disappointed :)

Any bride & groom to be should be lucky enough to have a skilled and professional DJ provide the entertainment for their wedding. The best thing about Paul is his professionalism and flexibility. He makes it your day by mixing and spinning any song you wish to dance to, and will work with you on everything from play lists, introductions and speeches, and mixing two or three beats that you enjoy to create something unique. Paul even went out of his way to find several obscure tracks we found on YouTube. Out of all our vendors, he was the most responsive, and most dedicated to our Wedding Day. Not one of our guests left the dance floor once they hit the dance floor, and the energy in the room was contagious. He understands crowds and his audience, and will help make sure the spotlight is on you during your wedding day, which is so important. You are guaranteed to have a blast at your wedding with DJ Paul.

DJ Paul was very attentive to details and really helped walk me through planning the sequence of events in a way that allowed me to create the exact mood/feel I wanted for my wedding. He kept my guests entertained and followed through with every detail we discussed in our planning leading up to the event. DJ Paul was an excellent addition to our ceremony/cocktail hour and reception. DJ Paul responded quickly to my phone and email inquiries, day and night, and always made me feel like I was his number one priority, even though I know he was managing many other events in the same time period I was planning mine. Paul was very flexible, and willing to make any changes I requested. Paul arrived hours before my ceremony to ensure he had ample time to set up his equipment to meet my every request.

Paul was great! My husband and I decided to interview Paul because his services were very reasonably priced, and as soon as we met with him we knew he was the DJ for us. Paul is very professional, but also very friendly and easy to talk to. He really took the time to get to know me and my husband, and how we envisioned the entertainment on our wedding day. He asks a lot of questions, but uses everything you tell him to make sure he plays exactly the right kind of music, and makes your reception everything you want it to be. He is very flexible, and will make time to talk to you whenever you need to. He really helped make our wedding reception amazing, and we definitely recommend him!

Paul is very experienced and professional. He gave us a lot of suggestions and support prior to our wedding party. He was very quick getting back to us whenever we had any questions.
At the party he was flexible enough to keep everything running smoothly despite our last minute changes. Several of my guests came to tell me how much fun they had and how great the DJ was.

DJ Paul was refered to me by my husbands close friend. Not only is he extremely affordable, but he is extremely talented as well. We had two meetings before our big day which made my mind feel at ease at a time when everything was stressing me out. He not only is good at what he does, but he makes you feel very important and involved with everything he does. He even played a special song for my three year old son, which went over very well at our reception. If your looking for a responsible, caring, and very well organized DJ, Paul is definitly your man! Thanks again DJ Paul for making the best day of my life that more special.

DJ Paul worked with our budget and accepted the job for what we were able to pay him. He traveled a long way to DJ our wedding. He DJd our outdoor ceremony and indoor reception. He made sure he brought enough equipment to have music indoors and out. He arrived early due to recent severe weather and brought additional help for no extra cost. He was sure to have the exact songs we wanted for our ceremony and reception. He kept in touch throughout the planning process frequently through phone calls and emails. Overall our guests enjoyed the music throughout the night. Thanks DJ Paul!

DJ Paul was great. He really works hard to help put together a play list that reflects you as a couple. If you have a list of songs you want played rest assured he will play every one.

Paul is a GREAT DJ!!!! He was there early and stayed late, he wore a tux, was very professional, and the cost was great. He was very quick to answer all of my emails, played phenomenal music and got everyone pumped up and dancing before we even entered the room. I will use Paul for all of my DJ needs and would fully recommend him!

DJ Paul was simply AMAZING! He did a great job! The introductions were perfect, he had the crowd pumped up and on their feet for our introduction and he kept the dance floor packed the whole night! As a stressed out bride, he helped me stay calm and plan out every detail! I will definitely use him again for any party or event I plan! I love DJ PAUL!!

LOVED DJ Paul! Was great with the crowd, and great with my 8 year old who requested the most songs. Wonderful value, got what we paid for and more!

DJ "Pumping Paul" is neurotic about making sure his clients get the best service. He strives to play the right songs at the right times for best result. We had the usual music transitions in our wedding - pre-ceremony, ceremony, hors d'oeuvres, dinner, and then dancing DJ Paul was meticulous in helping us plan and masterful in his delivery. We and our guests had a wonderful time - in part, thanks to DJ Paul!!!

Paul was great to work with and his price was very reasonable. Here's a couple strong points.
1. He's very organized and on top. Overall email response time was fast and he asks a lot of questions.
2. He's able to read the crowd well and know what songs fit for the moment.
3. He didn't eat dinner during our whole reception and just paid attention to his work as our DJ.
4. Fantastic price. Paul gave us a quote that was reasonable and much more competitive than other prices we got.
Overall, my wife and I were very happy with Paul and highly recommend his services.

Paul is an amazing DJ especially when it comes to weddings! I've worked side-by-side w/ him and there's no question of his professionalism and his ability to keep the crowd smiling! Compared to other DJ's I've worked with, Paul had some of the lowest prices I've seen for what you get! I wouldn't recommend anyone else, DJ Paul will be at the top of my list for even my own wedding!!!

We had originally contracted with another DJ for our wedding, but when a family emergency came up he referred us to Paul.
To put it simply, for the last couple months since our wedding we've had friend after friend tell us it was one of the best parties they have EVER been to . . . not just the best wedding party, the best party period. We gave him a playlist about 3 times too long, but he selected just the right mix of music to get people on the dance floor and KEEP them there.
I would highly recommend him, with no reservations.
