Anna W. Sent on 11/09/2023Incredible DJ!
DJ Gibbons is amazing! The music was by far the most important part of our wedding and we are so so happy with our DJ choice. Not only did DJ Gibbons keep the dancing going all night long, but we are still getting compliments about how wonderful he was months after our wedding. We really wanted a DJ who could use our "must play songs" list as a guide and fill in the cracks. DJ Gibbons did an outstanding job of understanding the vibe we were going for and also reading the room. Our friends and family truly had the best time at our wedding because of him! -

Tracy Sent on 08/14/2023The Perfect DJ
DJ Gibbons was the absolute perfect DJ for our wedding. Rafe was extremely thoughtful, meeting with us several times before the wedding to understand our vision, to offer suggestions, and to help us craft an incredible night. He was flexible and professional in terms of where and how he set up in the venue, which included a move from outside for the ceremony to inside for the reception, and even visited the site beforehand, making everything extremely easy on our end.
We were absolutely thrilled that he shared our enthusiasm about house, soul, and dance music. Discussing music with Rafe before the wedding was always enjoyable and he's extremely knowledgeable. The music played at the wedding was very important to us - we wanted to weave classic tracks with contemporary bangers - and we were relieved and excited to give it over to Rafe who we trusted completely to weave together music from different eras and genres, to feel out the mood of the room, to keep everyone dancing, and to craft the ultimate vibe.
We couldn’t imagine anyone else having been our DJ and couldn’t recommend him more!! -

Talia N. Sent on 05/08/2023A wonderful, collaborative experience!
We truly cannot recommend Rafe highly enough. Working with him was fun, easy, and wonderful from start to finish. He is super warm and personable, which meant it was always a pleasure to chat and also that he really helped set the perfect tone for our reception. He kept things flowing really well throughout the entire night and was able to really keep the energy up while staying genuine and never being cheesy. We really appreciated his collaborative way of working with couples; he is a true pro and can clearly go off as much or as little as you give him. In our case, we gave him a selection of songs for different portions of the evening (based on his very helpful worksheet!), and then he was able to build off of that while always adapting to the energy of the room. Everyone had so much fun dancing, but it also didn't feel cookie cutter. We really felt like it was /our/ wedding. He was also incredibly accommodating; my dad wanted to incorporate some surprise music cues into his speech and was able to work with Rafe beforehand to do that, and Rafe also worked with us so that my grandma could sing a song during the reception. We are so happy that we got the chance to work together - Rafe's love of and skill with music was apparent throughout the entire process. Don't hesitate to book him! -

Julia M. Sent on 01/12/2023Everyone's still talking about the music
More than 2 months later and everyone is still talking about the amazing music at our wedding. Rafe (DJ Gibbons) was phenomenal. Easy to work with, totally understood our vibe, and most importantly he absolutely crushed it on wedding night. There is nothing worse than terrible transitions between songs, but that is certainly not something you need to worry about with Rafe. He's smooth as can be and never corny or over the top. No one wanted to leave the dance floor. Rafe also made things like toasts, announcements, etc., all super smooth. I really cannot recommend him enough. Amazing DJ for your wedding. Thank you Rafe! -

Katie M. Sent on 11/22/2022Perfect for our Corporate Event
We hired Rafe for our Corporate retreat. In addition to be incredibly professional and responsive, he was able to provide a play list that spanned all the generations in our company. Everyone had a great time, and the dance floor was never empty! He also helped set the flow of the party, by having perfect cocktail hour music that moved into dinner and dancing. People didn't want him to stop! Would definitely hire again! -

Ben Sent on 01/08/2018Rafe, aka Mr. Gibbons, has been a resident DJ off and on for me at 2 of my venues for the better part of 6 years and I can't recommend him highly enough. He's very professional (always on time, set-up, organized, and ready to go by start time), has a great extensive selection of music for all occasions, and is really just a pleasure to work with. One of the best in the biz!

Kayla Sent on 01/02/2018My husband and I are total music snobs so we were a little hesitant to hire a DJ. Thank god we found Mr. Gibbons! Not only was he willing to take our suggestions, but he played a whole set inspired by them. Funk, soul, disco, and hip hop for the dance party and a nice selection of light 1960s/1970s tunes for the cocktail hour. He even made our dream of a soul train line come true. Plus, he's a super nice guy who was very personable and fun. Hire Mr. Gibbons! You won't be disappointed.

Justin Sent on 01/08/2018Looking for an DJ who understands your eclectic tastes, can bring together guests young and old, and keep them dancing all night? After our first meeting we knew that we were not only on the same page, but that we trusted DJ Gibbons to provide the soundtrack to our most special night- our New York Wedding. He is your DJ for a night you'll never want to end— seamlessly weaving in personal picks and keeping the night going. DJ Gibbons had my entire party dancing like no one was watching. We recommend a thousand times over.
