Anniversary Party•Reviewed on October 31, 2011•From Spring Lake, NJ
John and Kelly were fantastic, I couldn't have selected two better performers. Everyone at the party thought they were great also, including the employees at Doolans Shore Club. I was asked quite a few times how I found them, everyone was impressed. Their professionalism was outstanding, as well as their talent. They were very accommodating from day one. I would highly recommend Alden Entertainment to anyone having a party of any kind. Our overall experience with these performers was awesome. Thanks so much John and Kelly for the enjoyable evening you provided for my family and friends. Best of Luck to the both of you. Larry and Cindy Travers.
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 31, 2010•From Brielle, NJ
John is a wonderful entertainer and very professional. I never met John until the night of our event, but I instantly new from our correspondense and phone conversations that we had made the right choice. Meeting John and working with him only comfirmed what I already new. We hope we can work together again in the near future. All of our guests were very impressed with John's performance. We can't thank him enough for a great evening.
Wedding•Reviewed on November 1, 2008•From Swedesboro, NJ
John was a wonderful DJ at my wedding. He called me a few nights before the wedding to go over the final details regarding our song choices and how to pronounce everyone's names (no small feat in my wedding). He played every song from the list of "wants" that my hsband and I had. I still have wedding guests commenting on what a great time they had at the wedding, with John's music selections being one of the top things they enjoyed. He was also able to accommidate the large age gap (7-85 years) we had, with something for everyone to enjoy. I highly recommend Alden Entertainment.

John & Kelly were amazing. I booked them for my wedding reception at the Molly Pitcher Inn ,Redbank, NJ. Their voices are so incredible that it took a few songs before the guests really realized that they were singing and it wasn't the original on cd. :) They ARE THAT GOOD. Professional, accommodating, great personalities and incredible talent. I booked them through the other great reviews here, and was not disappointed. We love Micheal Buble and it sounded like he was in the room. If you are looking for a truly classy type of entertainment I say ditch the dj and hire Alden Entertainment. :)

Engagement Party•Reviewed on November 9, 2011•From Rye, NY
As an entertainer, I have worked with many djs and i can say that John is, without question, an outstanding dj. He displayed a high degree of professionalism as we were planning my daughter's engagement party for 8/27. He is also an extremely talented singer. All was in place for our event: 2 vocalists, song list for the evening, slide show, schedule of toasts, etc. when we suddenly had to cancel b/c of Hurricane Irene. As John was unavailable for our new date he recommended DJ Chris, who was a wonderful replacement. John & Chris worked together to make a seamless transition for a GREAT party on 10/29, the nite of the snowstorm. Connie Adams/Sunny the Clown
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 17, 2010•From West Orange, NJ
Alden Entertainment was excellent at our party, he played the music I requested and everyone at our party had a great time. Played a variety of music, county, rock, oldies, etc. My guests also really enjoyed John and requested his business cards for future parties. I would recommend, and definitely use him again for my next party.
Retirement Party•Reviewed on February 20, 2011•From Princeton Junction, NJ
John did a very professional and fabulous job for us! The cocktail hour and dinner hour music was perfect for our mostly-baby-boomer crowd, and the folks who sang karaoke and those who danced after dinner had a great time (as did those who chose to sit around and talk and watch and listen). Wish the crowd had been a little livelier, but that's what you get with the over-the-hill gang. Thanks so much for helping to create the perfect ambiance!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 18, 2010•From Blairstown, NJ
John Alden/Alden entertainment did an amazing job coordinating music and karaoke for our mother's 80th birthday party. He worked with the Elvis performer to ensure a smooth performance. And, he did a great job of reading the crowd and playing the perfect mix of music to appeal to all ages and musical tastes. Great job, John. Thank you for helping to make our mom's birthday a day she will never forget! Keri Campbell
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 20, 2007•From Westchester, NY
Alden Entertainment was wonderful. They were professional from the first phone call to the end of the event. Alden Entertaiment returned calls promptly, gave suggestions without being pushy, and were very accomodating and friendly. The music choices were great, appropriately ordered and moved the party along as it should have. Overall, I was extremely happy as I didn't have to worry about the music portion at all. 10 out of 10. Will use them again and recommend them to friends.
