Big Hits DJ Entertainment

Big Hits was wonderful! Gerry was a pleasure to work with and we had an awesome time on our wedding day thanks to him. Our guests loved the music and can't stop talking about it.

I could not be happier with Big Hits Entertainment! None of the other DJs I looked at even compared. Music is very important to me and my husband and Gerry and Jeff at Big Hits listened to what we had to say and took the time to understand our style and what we were looking for in a DJ. They played every one of our must play songs and even made sure to have the songs we requested that many people have never even heard of! It is obvious that they love music and love what they do. Jeff made sure that everything went smoothly the day of the wedding and he took the time to make sure he had the correct pronunciations of everybody's names and their titles when doing the introductions. During the reception I sang a song to my husband and Jeff made sure to begin and end it at exactly the right moments. Our guests had a blast and were out on the dance floor (with my husband and me) all night long!

Big Hits DJ Entertainment did an incredible job at my June 2011 wedding. We worked with Gerry, the owner, to plan our DJ, MC and lighting services. He is a ball of energy, but is so enthusiastic about what he does, that we were confident in what we would be getting. We gave him a playlist and Big Hits stuck to it. Despite a minor hiccup when playing our entrance song for the reception, Big Hits delivered every single thing we asked of them. Since I am Indian-American and my now-husband is Irish-American, we had two sets of guests who were used to very different types of music. Keeping the crowd dancing and happy all night would be a challenge for a normal DJ, but Big Hits accepted the mission without one ounce of hesitation and did such a great job, that one of my uncles even went up to the DJ after the reception and thanked him for playing such great music through the night. A few weeks after the wedding, a friend of mine went out of his way to tell me that he couldn't believe how well the Indian music was mixed with American music - the flow of beats was so synchronous that you almost didn't notice there had been a change in genre, and no one felt that they had to sit down when there was music they were unfamiliar with. Our MC was great too, keeping us informed through the night as to what would happen next, making sure to ask us our preferences for certain things, and executing everything perfectly. The lighting was beautiful. I had expected just uplighting around the room, gradually changing to different colors through the night, but Bigh Hits went a step further and set-up a lighting scheme for the raised ceiling at our venue, which created a whole other layer of dimension to the room. I would definitely recommend Big Hits to anyone who wants to have a great party!

Five years ago a friend of mine used them for her wedding and I always remembered that the music at her reception was great, so I went to meet with the m for my wedding. From the first meeting Gerry was a pleasure. Where as other DJs talked about how great their equipment was and how they are good DJs, Gerry spoke about how they feel out the crowd and make sure that people are enjoying what they are playing. He added a more personal touch in my opinion. The day of the music was great and all my requests were played perfectly. The dance floor was never empty. We also had Big Hits do the room uplighting for the reception. The up lighting during the reception was beautiful. I wanted purple for the start, but then told them to do what ever they thought was best and it turned out great.

Very professional; especially more then other companies out there. The owner, Gerry is very nice and does not do the obnoxious sales pitch that a lot of DJs do. He knows exactly what he is doing and is very experienced. He was very responsive and spent a lot of time with us to make sure he was meeting our needs, which he did. The day of the wedding he was our MC and he did all of the announcements we asked, played most of the music on our list, did a really nice photo slide show, some zap shots on the monitor, he kept checking with us to make sure we were happy. He also did the uplighting for the room and it looked amazing!!! We also hired a percussionist from Gerry to have him play along with the music and everyone had a lot of fun with that and it sounded awesome! Everyone had a lot of fun. The entrance of the wedding party into the reception room was great. He checked with us before he announced everyone's names to make sure he was pronouncing them correctly and when the wedding party entered he played a really cool mix. My Mom could not stop dancing and neither could I. We barely ate anything because we enjoyed the party so much. I would recommend this company. We got a big package with them with a lot of add ons and it was worth it because it made a great event. Gerry is a real classy guy and runs a great company.

He was very good!!!!

We cannot say enough good things about Gerry and Big Hits. Logistically, Gerry was a pleasure to work with. We met with him twice at his office on Long Island. During the second meeting we had a song list ready to go, which Gerry meticulously reviewed with us and gave us his expert thoughts and made suggestions without changing the feel of the songs that we wanted. On the actual wedding day, every song we wanted was played and sounded great! He also showed up early to ensure everything was set up before our guests arrived. However, any good DJ should be able to play a list of songs on good audio equipment. What makes Gerry and Big Hits stand out is their ability to make things flow. We wanted our wedding to be one big party and make sure that everyone had a good time. Admittedly, the vast majority of the guests were our age, which definitely helped to get people on the dance floor, but Gerry did an amazing job as MC. He knew exactly when and how to get people on the dance floor and excited and how to slow things down for toasts and dinner. We would highly recommend Gerry and Big Hits.

Big Hits MADE our wedding... people were on the dance floor the whole time and are still talking about how much fun they had! When we met with Gerry, he assured us that they would tailor a play list to what we wanted, which was exactly what they did. It was NOT the cheesy DJ thing at all... Gerry helped us come up with what we wanted, listened to our ideas, and put it all together. The night of the wedding, the guys were so flexible with the program....they delayed the father/daughter dance when we had a minor dress emergency (my bustle broke) and no one else even noticed! They worked with the maitre'd to assure a smooth flow of the night. All in all, it was incredible... can't wait for the video!

The DJ either makes the party or kills the party and Big Hits MADE our wedding party. We met and discussed our likes and dislikes regarding music selections prior to signing the contact. Within less than 5 minutes in the office I knew we had found our DJ for the wedding. Other DJ's had their vision of what we wanted while doing what they wanted, BigHits listened and understood our needs and catered to our needs and wants. The day of the reception the MC and DJ where GREAT.. The lighting package we chose worked well with the catereing hall, which BigHits was quite familiar with. Our guests where up on the dance floor all night and seemed to have a great time. Well worth the money EXCELLENT value.

Big Hits was absolutely wonderful at our wedding and the whole planning process. We first met with Gerry to discuss booking - and he did a great job at telling a story about a wedding day and made us really believe that it was about us. He really knows his music. Some of the other companies we met with you could tell it was all about booking the most weddings, it was a business, not about the music. Big Hits is a little bit more than other DJ companies, but it's worth it. About a month before the wedding we sat down with Gerry & went over all the special music details & our play/do not play list. And it was definitely followed at the reception. Our MC was Wayne and he knew exactly how involved to be. I've been to weddings where the MC seems like he's really trying to be a part of everything and it just gets annoying but I felt Wayne had the perfect amount of involvement. He always checked in with me about our special requests as well, which I really appreciated. Not sure who our DJ was (didn't catch his name) but the variety of music was great & everyone was dancing the entire time. Would highly recommend to a friend!

I was in between a band and a DJ - what made me hesitate with a DJ is that I hate the cheesy MC's who are on the dance floor bothering guests and totally Jersey Shoring It Up. When I met Gerry from Big Hits he assured me that they are not that kind of company - their business is at least 90% weddings so they don't go down that road of a Sweet 16 atmosphere. The DJ and MC were fantastic and you barely knew they were there. They played the songs we requested and spoke only when they needed to and our dance floor was packed the entire time. If you are up in the air - this company will definitely make you second guess hiring a DJ for your wedding - you would never need a band again.

We had these guys for our wedding. They were great! They played all the songs we requested and were very accomadating. The dance floor was packed the whole night! We even got my husband out there and he never dances. We highly recommend them. Great Job!
