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 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!

We hired DJ Derek Holt for our Newport wedding and were impressed from our very first point of contact! Derek was quick to respond to emails and texts and was very professional. Most importantly, Derek was very perceptive and understood the exact vibe we envisioned for our wedding reception. He had our wedding guests on their feet from the moment the dance floor opened until he played the final song. Guests were commenting throughout the night about how well he mixed up the music and kept people of all ages dancing. We would give him more stars if we could and recommend him without reservation! In addition to DJ Derek Holt, we had Keith Andrews do our uplighting. We only met him the day of the wedding, but he was incredibly personable and fun! He did a beautiful job with the uplighting throughout the evening, setting the tone for each part of the night from dinner to dancing, and making Belle Mer look even more spectacular!

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 give DJ Holtie 5 Stars!! DJ Holtie had the whole wedding amped up from the beginning to the very last second. He played the hottest new music while mixing it up with some old classics that everyone loves. If you want an amazing unforgettable wedding with dancing and partying all night long DJ Holtie is definitely the man for the job.
