Fred Pappalardo was the DJ for our wedding and I couldn't have asked for a better DJ. Going into our first meeting with hardly any ideas for music, Fred had many ideas on what kind of music would work for us. He had great suggestions from ceremony music, cake cutting songs and of course songs that were must plays at the reception. We put a lot of our reception in Fred's hands and couldn't have been happier. We would recommend DJ Fred to anyone looking for great DJ to keep the guests dancing all night long! Fred is a great guy and hard worker, he was wonderful to work with and anyone that uses him for their wedding will have a memorable night!

James McNally was the DJ for our wedding and he was fantastic. We would recommend him to anyone, he was extremely helpful well always remaining professional. When we sat down to plan out the music for the night we laid a lot of the set list in his hands and when we where stuck on a particular song to play during certain parts of the reception he was able to help us find the perfect song, he even suggested different games to help us get our guests more involved. Through out the night he played the perfect selection of music at the right times and he did not disappoint us with the selection. The music he chose was a hit with all the different age groups that attended, we couldn't have asked for anything more... Definitely 5 stars!

I HIGHLY recommend DJ Fred to anyone and everyone! I truly believe that the DJ is one of the most important vendors for a wedding, since the DJ who is going to set the tone for the wedding! We wanted our wedding to be a party, and for people to be up dancing the whole time, and DJ Fred really did that. The venue even said that they had never seen a wedding where people were dancing that early in the night! Fred also knew how to read the crowd, and put in some slow songs here and there. He also blended older generation music with newer songs so that all generations were out on the dance floor!

DJ Fred Pappalardo was our DJ for our wedding. He was amazing and a pleasure to work with. He was very professional, asked our opinions and gave great suggestions. Fred played a great selection of music and kept the dance floor busy all night long. I would recommend Fred to anyone looking for a great DJ. He exceeded our expectations and we are grateful. I had been to a wedding previously where Fred was the DJ and when I got engaged I knew I had to have him!Thank you Fred for being apart of a fabulous night that we will never forget and neither will our guests!!

We had DJ Fred at our wedding. He was AMAZING! He played the perfect mix of songs. Because of the weather we had some logistically challenges in that we had to take photos during our reception - despite us pulling out large numbers of people at a time, he kept the dance floor going and everyone has raved about the music selections. Fred did a great job of mixing in some of our obscure requests with songs that everyone knows and loves. What I really appreciated was that while Fred was more than willing to meet with us in person, we lived far from the venue and opted to talk over the phone. After filling out his checklist and having a conversation on the phone, Fred really understand the vibe we were going for. I was more than confident that he would make our reception an absolute blast and I was not disappointed. The dancing was the highlight of the wedding for me and I keep thinking back to those moments and smiling. He truly made our wedding a night we will never forget and we could not be happier with him as our DJ. I should also point out that both Mike and I are not typically dancers and he had us out there all night. THANK YOU FRED - YOU ARE THE BEST!

Fred was amazing at our wedding. He kept the dance floor full, cued us in when we had to be places, very professional yet silly (because we are), very nicely priced...I could go on and on about how perfect Fred was at our wedding. He was the best choice! Thank you so much for everything you did for us on our day Fred! I would 100% recommend him to ANY bride :) Jessica & Michael Gagne

Clark Sillery provided DJ services for our wedding ceremony and reception at The Historical Society of Wells and Ogunquit and Village by the Sea. The entire process went by perfectly and we could not have asked for more. Clark provided amazing service and had everyone out on the dance floor having a great time all night long. Everyone that attended our wedding had nothing but nice things to say about Clark as our DJ. We would without a doubt recommend Clark's services for any type of ceremony.

James McNally, was the DJ for our wedding and I couldn't be happier! He provided the music for the ceremony as well as our reception. We didn't want to use traditional wedding theme songs for our ceremony and had found a couple obscure songs on YouTube that James was able to extract and use. He was very patient with us in our meeting with him and had some really great ideas. He worked with us to make our day a fun and memorable one. He adjusted seemlessly to requests and really kept the party going and dancing. He looked like he was having fun too, dancing it up while he played songs! Honestly, I could not be happier with his performance and professionalism. I could sit here and write another paragraph about how I would highly recommend him, but that probably wouldn't do him justice. So if you are stuck deciding between James and someone else, GO WITH JAMES! You will be glad you did.

James McNally was the DJ for our wedding on September 10, 2011 in Alton, NH. He provided the music for both the ceremony and reception. James was open to our creativity in playing Star Wars theme songs recorded by the Boston Pops during our ceremony. He adjusted easily to last minute changes made on the day of the wedding. We also gave James a list of over 50 songs we wanted played over the course of our wedding day. He was very thorough and reviewed each song with us thus making suggestions about what would be appropriate music for cocktail hour, dinner music, and dance music. The catering staff even commented to us about how fantastic our DJ was compared to other wedding venues. Our guests were excited to see James having a good time as he mouthed the lyrics to songs and showed that he loved his job!

We had Clark from Fred's crew of DJ's. He was absolutely amazing! Our guests were astounded by how full the dance floor was during the entire evening. I highly recommend Clark and would definitely utilize his services again!

We booked Doug Bounds through Fred Pappalardo DJs. Doug was great! We met with him the week before the wedding and went over what our general likes and dislikes were. On the day of the wedding he did an absolutely great job reading the crowd and keeping everyone on the dance floor all night long! He has a great personality and does a great job getting the party going while not being obtrusive at all (I don’t like DJs that talk a lot). He worked seamlessly with the coordinator at our venue to make sure the first dances, cake cutting, etc all flowed well. And he had a smile on his face the whole time. I’d recommend Doug to any couple!

Our DJ, James McNally, was so fantastic. I would very highly recommend him!! He was great to work with, flexible, fun and gave very good suggestions when we were stuck on some of our wedding song choices. The wedding was so much fun, he did a great job MCing and keeping us informed of things like when to cut our cake, do special dances, etc. So many wedding guests commented on how great the DJ was doing and the good variety of music he played. He's got a great sense of humor, and I just cannot say enough about how comfortable we felt with him on the mic! Thank you so much James!! I would absolutely hire you again if and when we ever throw a big event.

Fred was great for us. The price that he quoted to us was all inclusive and straightforward along with being very reasonable for a 5 hour reception. He kept the crowd dancing and entertained and throughout the process was very professional, thorough and made sure that everything was exactly the way we wanted it. He even accommodated a last minute flash mob that my friends had decided to put together switching in their CD with ease and with no suspicion to anyone else whatsoever. We were very happy with his services and now no why he is known generally as the best DJ in Maine!

James McNally, one of the DJs with Fred Pappalardo Disc Jockeys, did our wedding on 8/13/2011 and we can't speak more highly of him. He was fun and personable, and always professional. He made himself completely available to us, responded very quickly to emails and communication, and his rate was extremely reasonable. As far as the music goes, he gave us as much control as we wanted and was there with plenty of song ideas when we had none! He paid attention to every detail, he even spoke with everyone in the wedding party personally to make sure he had the right pronunciation of their names. Our ceremony/reception went SO smoothly, and we do owe a lot of that to James.If you're getting married, or need a DJ, Fred Pappalardo Disc Jockeys are a favorite for New Englanders, but ask for James McNally, he knows what's up!

James McNally was excellent! A consummate professional. James was proactive and thoughtful in every interaction we had with him. And he certainly came through on our wedding day! James delivered a stellar set and was a wonderful MC. We could not have asked for a better DJ. I recommend James to anyone looking for MC and DJ services.

We had our wedding at the Union Bluff Meeting House in York beach, Maine on 8/12/11 and Fred Pappalardo was included in our package, which I was excited about because I had contacted Fred a few months prior to get information since I had heard great reviews! Fred was so helpful and flexible during our music list meeting, because I am so not educated when it comes to music! He helped my sister coordinate our "Entrance Dance" with our wedding party which was a big hit! I have nothing but great reviews he kept our reception so fun, everyone was dancing all night, and the range of music was perfect to suit all of our guests! I would highly recommend Fred Pappalardo's DJ services for any wedding. Thank you so much for making our reception so fun! ~Christina and Patrick Giguere

Fred DJed our wedding on August 6th, 2011 in Kennebunkport, Maine. In a word, he was amazing. Extremely professional, superb music selections and transitions throughout the night, and perfect amount of interaction with the guests. Our dance floor was packed the entire evening, and our guests remarked as to how much they enjoyed our DJ. Fred is extremely flexible and will work with you to craft the event of a lifetime!! We would absolutely use him if we had it to do over again, and highly recommend his services!
