We used No Macarena for our wedding on 6/7/19. I would HIGHLY recommend them. Right from the start Kim was very responsive and professional. We chatted on the phone and I felt like they definitely understood the vibe we were looking for for our wedding. We went ahead and booked with Jonas – LOVED HIM!… Read more “Megan”

We were incredibly happy with “No Macarena” for our wedding. The owner Kim was very friendly and professional. She listened to what we wanted and gave us exactly that.

D.J. Jonas from No Macarena D.J.ed our wedding on March 31, 2012. My husband and I have been to several weddings where, despite instructions otherwise, D.J.s will begin to play cheesy music totally out of sync with the couples style. We were hoping to avoid that. Prior to the wedding we submitted a list of… Read more “Jennifer”

No Macarena was a pleasure to work with. We didn’t have to give them a playlist or even very much direction – they know just the right balance of accessibility and quality to pull together a great party that isn’t cheesy. Totally friendly, easy and great rates. We loved it! -Sam & Adam  

Amazing experience working with Kim!! Highly recommend – we came with varied music tastes + a non traditional reception setup and she was flexible, responsive, and helped make our night awesome!!

We are thrilled with our decision to work with No Macarena and Danny Madonna in particular. Everyone we spoke with was very informed and helpful in letting us know what we information we need to provide, and decisions we needed to make. We decided against walking down the aisle and opted out of a few… Read more “brigette”

Fantastic professional experience from start to finish. Kept us involved throughout and invited us to contribute as much as we felt necessary. At the beginning of the reception my mom gave Josh a list of traditional Greek wedding song requests (which were NOT on the playlist we submitted) and Josh, hero that he is, found… Read more “Nick”

Great experience. We didn’t want some 80s style cheesy DJ, so we booked No Macarena after a friend used them for their wedding and we all had a great time. My dad did bring a CD to have a song played and they didn’t have a CD player like we were told he would, but… Read more “Kristin”

My Fiancé and I were supposed to be married on 4.10.20, but unfortunately due to Covid-19 we are choosing to postpone.

Kim was fantastic and had great taste in music!

Got married in the Philadelphia Distilling Company, and Jonas was our DJ. Kim was super helpful setting everything up and recommending DJs that were available, and very affordable pricing.

We were thrilled with our experience with No Macarena. They DJ’d our wedding at Bok in South Philly in September 2018.

We booked No Macarena after my cousin’s suggestion and could not have been happier with this decision.

Our wedding was a hit thanks to Darrel & No Macarena! All of our guests were on the dance floor! We are still getting calls and texts complimenting the music! Thank you for making our special day perfect!

We initially thought we’d do our music ourselves, but when it became clear we weren’t prepared to do that, we contacted No Macarena just a couple of weeks before our December wedding. They moved quickly and set up a time to discuss by phone what we had in mind for our wedding. They asked all… Read more “Mary”

Definitely use No Macarena as your DJ. Josh did an amazing job! Before the wedding, he helped us with ideas for how to make the reception events run really smoothly.

I would absolutely recommend No Macarena in a heart beat. Exactly as involved or not involved as you wish. Totally sticks to your playlist. My guests raved about the music and they danced the night away. One suggestion: pick you last song…  

  No Macarena was easy to work with, and DJ Dave Beck kept the dance floor jammed for two hours! He was also extremely helpful with planning processional and recessional music, making sure we had excellent sound for the ceremony and best man’s speech, and creating an overall sound for our wedding.  

My husband and I very much enjoyed having Darrel Asbury of No Macarena DJ our wedding in Princeton October 9, 2010. He was a pleasure to work with; he adapted to our somewhat challenging venue seamlessly, and he was helpful with questions we had leading up to the event. He was careful to avoid songs… Read more “Kuang”

We enjoyed working with Kim, and our DJ (Dave) was great! He was flexible about a few last-minute changes to introductions, and about working with the house sound system.

We had a great experience with No Macarena! Kim was very easy to work with as was our DJ Darrel. We gave relatively loose instructions, but our DJ Darrel did an awesome job and had the whole room dancing. Thanks again!  

We had such a good feeling about Kim from our first meeting, and she did not disappoint. She took our playlist and ran with it. No flash, just good music, and that’s exactly what we wanted. We kept saying, Kim just “gets it”! Our dance floor was packed all night!

Kim was an absolutely amazing DJ for our wedding. My wife joked that I was a bit of a Groomzilla about the music, but that’s just because I know that’s what really makes a wedding. Once we saw Kim I knew we had our DJ. She has an immense knowledge of music and knew exactly… Read more “Dan”

My husband and I hired Kim for our 11/1/2020 wedding and she provided so much entertainment for us and our guests.

Our DJ MADE our wedding. We had, literally, the best day of our lives. We were referred to No Macarena by another couple.

Great! Kim was flexible, full of knowledge, & current. Price was great! If you do not want a cheesy MC shoving a mic into someones face or heading a conga line, this is the DJ for you. She will be as present or in the background as you want.

DJ Evan Hoffman was amazing! We met with him before booking and we knew he was a perfect fit for our wedding. Evan was enthusiastic, attentive, and was genuinely happy to be part of our special day. We gave him a long list of songs we wanted to play during cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing… Read more “Amy”

Kim was an excellent DJ! She played all the songs we requested, and the rest of the playlist was a great mix that kept our guests dancing all night long!

We cannot say enough about No Macarena. One of our best wedding planning decisions was hiring Kim Alexander. She was FANTASTIC! From our first conversation with her, we were impressed. She was attentive to detail, incredibly knowledgeable, asked great questions to figure out our taste, and made the whole process super easy and fun. My… Read more “Maddy”

Did everything we wanted and more! So great – people are still telling us how terrific our music was and they almost forgot to eat, they spent so much time on the dancefloor!  

Josh was awesome for December wedding! He did such a great job of blending our *interesting* tastes in music and I kept getting told how great the music was. It was a blast and Josh was a big part of that!  

Kim at No Macarena was awesome! She was quick to get back to me whenever I had a question to discuss with her and so professional! I didn’t have to worry at all that she would be there on time and ready to go which was such a relief the day of the wedding! Everyone… Read more “Jane”

This company came highly recommended to us by both our venue and our caterer and we couldn’t have been happier! I’ve been to a bunch of weddings where there was a DJ but no one was dancing. That’s not what we got- everyone was on their feet from the minute the dance floor opened up.… Read more “Lauren”

Kim was AMAZING! She was so supportive of our music vision and was willing to work with our “no-play” list which was fairly extensive and got our music taste immediately. She was very well organized, took multiple calls with me when I needed to confirm details, and put together a killer setlist. I got so… Read more “LUCY”

Dave Beck was our DJ for our micro wedding this year and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He took the time to really understand what music we wanted and how we wanted the evening to flow. From the ceremony music to the reception music, the toasts to the parent dances, and our… Read more “Elizabeth”

If you don’t like the loud, cheesy DJ, this is definitely the way to go. Grace, our DJ, played the music we asked her to, mixed in other music to our taste, and didn’t play anything we didn’t want to hear. She kept the vibe that we wanted our wedding to have, and we were… Read more “Lori”

They did a great job, worked with us, were very accommodating. We received many compliments on the music, in fact one guest claimed it the best wedding music ever.

We were so happy we went with No Macarena. Working with Kim via email leading up to the wedding was a breeze, even though we were planning our wedding in PA from CA. Evan was our DJ for our reception. He was great to work with and very professional. My husband and I met as… Read more “Meghan”

Kim was the BEST DJ. Our guests danced all night! She did a great job of reading the crowd and adjusting the music accordingly. We provided her with a list of some songs that we liked, and she was able to curate a great playlist from that. Not only was Kim a fantastic DJ, but… Read more “Steph and Rob”

  We loved Ken from No Macrena. He did exactly what we expected, played great music and stayed in the background! I have a little less on the responsiveness since I probably would have liked to be contacted earlier than 2 weeks before the wedding and I had to reach out to him, but once… Read more “Lezlie”

No Macarea was simply amazing! We had such a great time at our wedding thanks to the attention to detail and organization of Kim and Josh, our DJ for the night. Kim was very easy to communicate with during the planning process. Josh took the time to get our song preferences including songs we did… Read more “Elizabeth”

We had Kim for our wedding, and she was absolutely fantastic. We gave her pretty much free reign (aside from a “no play” list) to play whatever she thought would work, and she did a great job keeping everyone dancing. I know No Macarena sells itself on being out-of-the-way DJs, but I asked Kim to… Read more “Kate”

We are so glad we found Kim and No Macarena! Kim was responsive, easy to work with, and helped customize our day based on our musical interests. From the first time we spoke, we were impressed by her professionalism and how easy she made things. On the day of, she was prompt, friendly, and flexible… Read more “Andrea”

In 2003 I was at a wedding and heard a Bjork song during the cocktail hour and thought, “Wow, who is this DJ!?” I went to the DJ table and took the business card. It was No Macarena and I was 19 years old. Ten years later, my best friend got married and the DJ… Read more “Mallory”

Fantastic professional experience from start to finish. Kept us involved throughout and invited us to contribute as much as we felt necessary. At the beginning of the reception my mom gave Josh a list of traditional Greek wedding song requests (which were NOT on the playlist we submitted) and Josh, hero that he is, found… Read more “Nick”

Kim of No Macarena is a breath of fresh air after attending so many weddings with sub-par DJs. So many guests complimented our music selection and even the volume (which allowed some guests to chat while others danced). I’d highly recommend Kim and No Macarena.  

We had Josh for our wedding on September 27, this past Saturday. HE WAS AWESOME! He spoke on the phone with me a week before the wedding and was so detail focused that he helped me with things I didn’t even think of! All of our guests said how awesome the music was and how… Read more “Vicki”

I’ll admit that what piqued my interest in No Macarena first was the excellent name. As soon as my now-husband and I spoke to Kim, though, we realized that the name was far from the only fantastic thing about the company. The whole ethos of helping to pick our own music was brilliant (and a… Read more “Elizabeth”

My wife and I attended our friends’ wedding a few years ago which Kim DJ’ed. We agreed at that wedding that we would use her for ours when the day came. She was the first vendor we hired after booking our venue and we couldn’t be more pleased. She was amazing throughout the entire process… Read more “Daniel”

No Macarena provided such value for their price that I almost feel like we robbed them! They came highly recommended from a co-worker as a DJ that wouldn’t take over the wedding and play cheesy line dances, (unless you really want them to! ). I communicated with Kim leading up to the event, and she… Read more “Denise”

Kim was great to work with!! She listened to what we wanted- which was a very specific list of plays/do-NOT-plays and kept the party going all night!! She was exactly what we wanted in a DJ– someone who would simply give us the best party of our lives. No line dances, no choreography, and she… Read more “Michelle”

We hired No Macarena primarily because it was one of the preferred vendors of our venue. Being that we live 3,000 miles from our venue, we really relied on word of mouth from trusted sources. No Macarena comes highly recommended not only by our venue/caterer, but also from other vendors within the Philadelphia area. From… Read more “Jacqui”

DJ Dave and No Macarena had a pretty simple but demanding task… turn our wedding into a 90s/00s dance party. And he/they delivered in a big way – just about ever wedding guest was on the dance floor at some point and DJ Dave nailed the request perfectly. We are so happy with our DJ… Read more “Anthony and Nicki”

No Macarena was great from start to finish. It made for a very lively wedding. She played all our suggestions and filled in other fun stuff. A wonderful DJ!  

They did a great job! Our DJ took our suggestions and added in some choices of his own that really worked with our style. He was great at announcing everything and movie the night along.  

Jonas and No Macarena DJ were terrific! Jonas was professional, played all the music we asked him to play, and expertly dealt with guests who requested songs we did not want played. After providing him with some music suggestions, he understood what we wanted immediately, and completely nailed it. We received complements on all aspects… Read more “Nick”

Perfect! Kim was great from beginning to end and always took the time to answer all my questions even if they were repeats. Jonas was our DJ and he was exceptional! Whatever we asked of him he was able to take care of. HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend this DJ company

Kim was absolutely wonderful. The lead up to the wedding was great and she chose an amazing playlist. She was helpful with changes and patient during the many speeches we had during the wedding. With all the delays she packed a punch on the dance floor and it was packed for the remainder of the… Read more “Angela”

Great communication and clarity throughout the process of planning music for a wedding cocktail hour and dinner with Kim and Josh. Despite our own mixed messages about what we wanted, Josh put together a mood that got praise and good vibes going throughout our event. Highly recommended!

We loved our DJ!! And so did all of our guests! We were lucky to have Evan Hoffman as our DJ. He did a wonderful job. Our music requests are really eclectic and he did such a good job of keeping every guest dancing no matter their taste in music. It was so much fun!… Read more “Natalie”

After we had to move our wedding date and lost our wedding DJ, we reached out to No Macarena for help at the last minute. We worked with Christian who was kind and understood what we wanted. He had a great mix of crowd pleasers and our requested songs. We weren’t terribly specific because we… Read more “Esther”

Jonas from No Macarena was great and everyone loved the music! I would not have asked for him to do anything differently. I have very high standards – especially for my wedding – and I had zero complaints. I was very prescriptive with the songs I wanted played and during which times and he did… Read more “Emily”

Kim and No Macarena Deejayed my wedding, and I still hear about how awesome the music and party was over 2 years later.

No Macarena provided fantastic DJ services for our ceremony and reception. We began planning with founder Kim Alexander, and based on our date she connected us with DJ Josh Landow. The planning process was incredibly easy, and Josh walked through the actual event with us over the phone the weekend before. The audio for the… Read more “Kristen”

Kim was an absolutely amazing DJ for our wedding. My wife joked that I was a bit of a Groomzilla about the music, but that’s just because I know that’s what really makes a wedding. Once we saw Kim I knew we had our DJ. She has an immense knowledge of music and knew exactly… Read more “Dan”

We really loved working with Kim Alexander of No Macarena. She really broke the down the process for us, was very organized and detail oriented and played great music that had us dancing all night! Would highly recommend!  

What first appealed to my wife and I about No Macarena was their commitment to not falling for hackneyed wedding DJ shticks. We found Kim and her team to be responsive, professional and passionate about music. Our original DJ fell ill and Kim arranged coverage seamlessly. I recommend No Macarena for anyone who wants a… Read more “Peter”

Our DJ Joe was so easy to work with before the wedding. I gave him the most absurd and random list of songs that my now-husband and I might like to hear, and somehow he was able to figure out our taste from that. He really seemed to get us and what kind of songs… Read more “Sarah”

We came across No Macarena online because we were drawn to the name! My husband and I had recently been to a couple weddings where the music was a little cheesy and the DJ hogged the mic all night.
