We had the pleasure of working with DJ Alex from 3rd Shift DJs, and he was absolutely fantastic! His playlist was thoughtfully curated, reading the crowd perfectly and keeping guests engaged and energized throughout the entire event. DJ Alex was quick to respond to text and was very professional, timely, and engaging in his work. He created a fun, welcoming atmosphere and made sure everyone felt included on the dance floor. If you are looking for a DJ who is reliable, engaging, and knows how to create an unforgettable celebration, we highly recommend DJ Alex and 3rd Shift DJs!

Where can I even begin? Alex wasn’t just our dj, he pretty much helped us create a timeline for our entire day. He was our host, support system and truly helped us throw the best celebration. Our guests LOVED him they are still talking about how awesome our DJ was. For months, we jumped on calls to perfect the experience we wanted and Alex was so incredibly supportive the entire time. A week before our wedding we had to change our wedding and he was one of the first people we called. Within minutes he had lists of places to call. When we figured out a new venue he did everything he could to become familiar with the new space and the owner. We arrived to the reception with our vendors all knowing eachother like they were friends all along - it was so unified like one family coming together. Alex was the glue that made our event as magical as it was. There truly isn’t anyone like him we are forever grateful.

Friendly to work with!
3rd Shift DJs were a great choice for our wedding! Their communication was typically within 24 hours, which was very responsive. While there were a few minor hiccups during the reception, the owner was very diligent in making things right. For example, the timing of our processional music was on point, and he even played a few songs that weren't on our playlist but ended up working out perfectly. Overall, 3rd Shift DJs helped make our special day a huge success.

Alex is the real deal
Alex from 3rd Shift DJs absolutely crushed it. From the ceremony, to the uplighting, to MC’ing the entire day, everything was on point. He’s fun, high-energy, and knows exactly how to read a room. The biggest thing? There was never a moment all night where the dance floor was empty. Not once. Song after song, people were out there having a blast, and that doesn’t happen by accident. Alex kept the day moving, kept the vibe right, and made the whole thing insanely fun without being cheesy or over the top. If you want a packed dance floor and zero stress, Alex is your guy. Would hire him again in a heartbeat.

THE BEST DJ’s
Communication with 3rd Shift DJs was amazing. The quality of their work and value was top tier. We didn't even rehearse with our DJ Matt the day before, but he still showed up and showed out on our wedding day. 3rd Shift DJs truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect.
