We hired After Hours for our wedding in October, and we were completely blown away. Sal Fusco and his team were so easy to work with that we showed up the day of and had absolutely no worries at all. He was so proactive in reaching out to us to plan details that we hadn't even thought of, he coordinated with our other vendors (photographer, officiant, wedding planner, etc.), and he was great at reminding us when we had to do things.
We didn't have too many songs we wanted played/not played, but basically told him what vibe we wanted and he completely understood and delivered! We had such a blast and I did not stop dancing the entire night! Our guests of all ages raved about the playlist, from our college friends to our aunts/uncles! He covered everyone's interests in such a seamless manner, and everyone had an amazing time. We are so glad we hired them!

DJ Peter Devine was the best! From the start, he made the process of the music planning simple and was so helpful. He mentioned many times that the day was about my now husband and I and he would just be there to make sure everything went how we hoped and Dj Pete did exactly that and more. All of our guests are still talking about how once the dance music started they did not leave the dance floor and that couldn't make me happier!

Chris and Carlos were amazing! Our wedding reception had to end at 10:00pm because of the venue but truly it would have kept going if it could! The dance floor did not stop all night long. The mix of music was perfect! They also provided us with a drive of fun videos and photos of the wedding right at the end of the reception. Kind, reliable, considerate and fun!

We are so glad we chose After Hours Events of New England to DJ our October 2nd Wedding. Our photographer had recommended their services and we could not be more happier. We worked with Chris and Carlos and they did not disappoint in keeping the dance floor packed the whole night! Working with Chris leading up to the wedding was great. He was extremely responsive to all of our questions and emails and was accommodating to our schedules when we met.
He did a great job matching the vibe and vision we described! It was so important to us to find a DJ who played music we liked and not just popular wedding music and Chris and Carlos did just that. We are so glad we worked with After Hours Events of New England and would highly recommend them. Thank you Chris and Carlos for providing the perfect soundtrack for our wedding!

Mike and AHENE were fantastic! They helped us from the start to make sure we had all the music we wanted, created a mashup for my daddy-daughter dance, and had music that kept the dance floor alive all night long! I wanted to dance and Mike made sure that the music mirrored the energy of the room! Everyone had a blast! They were quick to respond and always on top of everything throughout the planning stage so I was able to relax and enjoy for the event. They even gave us photos and videos of the reception, which was such a special touch!

We hired After Hours for our wedding ceremony, reception and photo booth. Sal Fusco and his team knocked our socks off. Sal has many years of experience and it was evident throughout the process. He was professional throughout, arrived early on our wedding day, and was meticulous to details. While we requested that certain songs be played during our cocktail hour and sprinkled throughout our reception, Sal matched the vibe perfectly throughout the rest of the reception.
He kept us on schedule, even tracking down my mother when she was missing during mother-son dance time. What really impressed us were the extras. At the end of the night, we received a USB drive with video of our wedding ceremony and first dances, all of the photobooth pics that night and many other pics from the reception. The photobooth team created a book throughout the night that included every person that came through. We were blown away and would definitely recommend this team for your wedding!

Mike was the best DJ! When planning for our wedding we wanted someone who could easily read the room and be able to play off of what everyone was feeling! We could not have asked for a better DJ! We love Mike!
