DJ Holtie was an excellent choice for our wedding reception DJ!!! Throughout the process of planning our wedding music, Derek was responsive, easy to work with, and helpful with suggestions for our entrance to the reception, first dance, father-daughter dance, etc. He also proved to be a charismatic MC for our toasts and for getting our guests on the dance floor. Speaking of the dance floor…Derek kept it full all night with smart transitions and a great mix of old and new songs– some of which we had requested and some of which he added in himself to complement our choices. And, Derek seamlessly managed all of this despite having to work with an awkward room layout. We have no regrets about going with Derek for our wedding reception, and give him our highest recommendation for yours! Thanks DJ Holtie!
Derek Holt from Entertainment Specialists recently DJ’d our wedding last month in Hingham, MA and did an amazing job! I’m so glad we chose him. He was easy to work, really responsive ahead of the big day and more importantly played a great mix of music that kept everyone on the dance floor all night. The music was definitely the highlight of the evening. He was professional, friendly, and well worth the cost. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ in the Boston area.
DJ Holtie was AWESOME. He rocked our wedding (June 6, 2015) and was everything we wanted in a DJ and more.. and he was affordable! We first met DJ Holtie at an Entertainment Specialists wedding exposition in Boston at the Harvard Club. We immediately liked him, he was laid back and seemed very comfortable talking with us and seemed like he was going to be very accommodating to all of our music needs. We could tell he wouldn’t be the overbearing (i.e. getting on the mic and yelling etc etc). Leading up to our event DJ Holtie helped keep us organized and was very attentive to our ceremony and reception personalization. During the wedding itself he rocked it. Other than a few “must plays” and a few “definitely do not play” we pretty much gave him free reign to feel out the crowd and keep people dancing… and he did an incredible job. The dance floor was packed from as soon as it opened until the end of the night. In addition to being a great DJ, Derek was a really nice guy! We were even lucky enough to see him at another wedding later in the summer and he did an equally great job. Thank you DJ Holtie, keep rocking it.
We had a wonderful experience with Derek. He was well prepared for our event, and was able to make changes on the fly when we threw him a curve ball or two on the day of (added some introductions). We were not into having a lot of announcements or DJ interaction (hyping) and pretty much just asked Derek to do introductions and play good music, and he absolutely delivered. From dinner on there were constant people on the dance floor and he met all of our request and expectations. We gave Derek a lot of freedom to select music based on a bunch of song/genres we liked and I can’t say I could have asked for anything better. Overall I would feel confident that Derek can deliver what you want, especially if you are looking for a good dance party. He caters to what YOU want and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask him to do another event if I needed him.
We hired DJ Holtie for our big day October 3rd and we couldn’t have made a better decision. He did everything! Leading up to the big day he helped us put together all the ceremony music and was able to execute our ideas to perfection. He warmed us up with the cocktail hour and lead perfectly into the introductions. As for the reception, that’s a whole different story. Our guests were on the dance floor all night and are still talking about it months later. We can’t thank DJ Holtie enough and will be recommending him to everyone we know!
