Review by Jennifer S.

Wedding•Reviewed on May 10, 2008•From Westfield, NJ

We were very pleased with John's professionalism and how he got everyone dancing at our reception. He played everything we asked for plus fullfilled some of our guests requests. Overall excellent and would definitely recommend Alden Entertainment.

A great group to work with and John Alden definitely rolled with the punches for a constantly changing event. Our event was held in a casino - and most people stayed upstairs to dance with John as DJ rather than go downstairs to gamble! We were very pleased, and would definitely use their services again.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 12, 2008•From New York City, NY

All of the attendees of our wedding were very pleased with the music privided by Alden. They were receptive to requests and had a very large array of songs. Everything was fine. If you hire Alden....They will be there and they'll be prepared.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 29, 2007•From New Rochelle, NY

Alden (John and his wife Kelly) are much more than just DJ's - they both sing- they sing jazz so well that people at the wedding did not believe that it was live singing. So it was both a DJ and live entertainment experience, which was fantastic. THey worked with us closely from the time we signed them up through the day of the event, working with us on song list, special requests, announcements, etc. They continually were perfectly professional and gracious and we felt lucky to have them at our reception. Moreover, they also arranged for the pianist who performed at the cocktail party.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 7, 2009•From New York City, NY

They were fantastic! Everyone was up and dancing and had a great time. Our guests kept asking how we found them. Both Kelly & John are very talented. They sang during the meal courses and were great DJs during the dance sets. Gig Masters is a great way to find talent. We couldn't be happier. They made the wedding reception come alive.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 25, 2009•From Greenwich, CT

John and Kelly were fantastic. They provided DJ services as well as live vocals for our dinner and dancing portion of our wedding reception. The vocal samples on their web site are great - however in person it was outstanding. They were able to read the crowd, determine what to play next and easily responded to our guests requests. They were so approachable and easy to work with - it was a perfect fit! We would recommend hiring them for any musical needs you have. Don't miss out on the live vocals combined with DJ services, our family still talks about it!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on January 20, 2007•From South River, NJ

I had spoken with several DJ's regarding our company party. When I spoke with John at Alden Entertainment he was very informative and nice. He listend to what we needed for our party and really put me at ease that I was choosing the right DJ. Kelly who was our DJ for the event was great. She was very professional and kept in contact with me in the weeks leading up to the party to ask if we had any music requests or needed anything special for the party. Kelly really made our company party a fun event. I would highly recommend Alden Entertainment and will use them in the future.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 2, 2008•From East Hanover, NJ

Kelly was wonderful. I had karoke at my party which was a huge success but complicated things a bit. However every change I made she was quick to meet my needs. She had so many songs for karoke which made it very easy for everyone to choose what they liked. She is very kind and sweet. Her iPod jack was great and made it easy to have my favorite songs played. My dad also thought that she was very professional and very easy to work with. Everyone loved her and she made my party so perfect it was such a great success and I would not hesitate to reccomend her to all of my friends.

3/24/07 John was terrific! The music played all night long. Everyone danced and had a great time. We had a luau theme.The karoake was a big hit. DJ was very accomodating. My husband's 50th surprise birthday party will be one to remember. People are still talking about it. John does a great Sinatra impersonation! I will recommend him and would hire him again. Thanks again for everthing John! Lorraine & Bert "Francis Albert" Mottola

Graduation Party•Reviewed on February 17, 2007•From Rumson, NJ

Kelly really made my sisters graduation party a success. She was a very pleasant & accommodating performer. At first we weren't going to have a D.J. So, on top of everything, we called last minute & Alden Entertainment was available for the date we needed, not to mention the price was VERY reasonable. Thank you for making our night complete. I highly recommend Alden Entertainment to anyone looking for a performer/D.J. for any event. Regards, Lisa Sotos

Being that I booked my party 2 days in advance, I was very pleased with how well everything turned out. The DJ was excellent and I could not ask for such a better party and such better talent.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 11, 2010•From Englishtown, NJ

DJ Kelly was an absolute dream! My guests loved her and I thought she was fabulous! My 40th birthday theme was New York Club and Kelly spun the hottest dance tunes. She accommodated all my song requests and even went as far as downloading special mixes of some songs. Everyone loved her voice and her English accent. She also sings a mean Shut Up and Let Me Go. She was very professional and such a sweetheart. I would highly recommend her and I will absolutely be using Alden Ent again. The price was also very reasonable for tunes and a light show. DJ Kelly gave us all a great party night! Kudos!
