No Macarena provided the music for my ceremony, cocktail hour and reception on 9/15/12. I really enjoyed working with this company. Kim Alexander, the owner, is responsive and pleasant. Dave Beck was our DJ for the wedding day, and I am glad that we had him. A few weeks before the wedding Dave and I

We had Kim from No Macarena at our wedding and she was great! She came early and help set up the acoustics for our ceremony (we had an acoustic guitarist.) We got married at a non-traditional venue, and I appreciated that Kim was flexible with this. There were a few moments in the evening when

No Macarena was hands down the BEST choice we made for our entire wedding! From our first correspondence they were very responsive and easy to work with. Our DJ Evan absolutely nailed it! We were worried people wouldn’t dance at our reception but we didn’t need to be, Evan kept everyone on the dance floor

Our DJ was Evan and he was GREAT. We didn’t give him too much direction but he still completely rocked it. He was incredibly professional, kind, and helpful. We received numerous comments from our guests that he did a great job (and even requests from our engaged friends to pass along his contact info!). He

We had a great time working with Christian from No Macarena for our wedding! He had a great guide that helped us know when we needed to pick music throughout the ceremony/reception, he reviewed our preferences, then actually stuck to them during the event!

Leading up to the wedding, Kim and Darrel were responsive and helpful. On the night of the wedding itself, Darrel was amazing. He had everyone dancing the whole time. It could not have been a better experience!

No Macarena was wonderful! Our DJ was Kim, and she was terrific. She was responsive and easy to work with, and she was very flexible and tuned into what my husband and I wanted. The day before the wedding, we realized it might be hard for guests to hear if we didn’t have a microphone

Kristin

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

We are super big music people and knew that our classic rock/80s disco style playlist would require the right type of music vendor—that’s where No Macarena came in. Our DJ was Josh, and he executed our vision perfectly. From the pre-ceremony melodies, to the post-ceremony cocktail hour and reception, Josh nailed everything we had asked

We were lucky enough to have Kim DJ our wedding, and let me just say, she could not have been more perfect! She was absolutely wonderful to work with – incredibly friendly and very professional!

No Macarena was suggested to us by our wedding venue. After reading reviews and talking with Sarah, I knew they were the type of DJs that my son wanted for his wedding – no hype during the night and self-selected music was welcomed. Jonas was wonderful!

Evan and Kim were very helpful throughout the planning process, and managed to play everything we asked them to (no small feat!). And, most importantly, they *didn’t* play the things that we explicitly asked them not to. There was an issue during our reception with one of the speakers, that kept cutting out, but Kim

You put so much energy into planning a wedding- but ensuring your guests have fun is a burden on the shoulders of your DJ. Evan at No Macarena saw to it that our guests had an incredible time! Guests of all ages spent the entire night on the dance floor. He crafted a play list

Kim did a great job at our wedding. She played music without being obnoxious. We gave her a list of songs and she was able to play nearly all of them – and we had quite an eclectic mix, from the Dead Milkmen to Lou Rawls! We were very happy with No Macarena.

We absolutely loved No Macarena!

We went with No Macarena because they were a recommended vendor from our venue, and I’m so glad we did! Kim was really down to earth and easy to work with. We wanted to go with a mix of mostly 60-70-80’s pop and rock music, and Kim definitely got our vibe and kept the dance

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

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

Sarah and Chris were awesome to work with! Really responsive/communicative in the months leading up to the wedding, and they were simply wonderful on the day of. They took note of all of the details/requests they asked for, and everything was seamless/smooth. Chris was a great MC and they kept the party going on the

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

Sarah and Chris were INCREDIBLE. They had an easy but detailed form to fill out to make planning super simple and straightforward. They were very responsive and checked in often through and calls and emails leading up to our wedding. There were a lot of questions that we didn’t have answers to that they took

No macarena was fantastic from start to finish. It was super easy to book, pay, and send them our songs. We got to pick our own playlist, and our wonderful DJ, Rod, went above and beyond to make preparing the songs and the night itself seemless and perfect. Rod gave us a wonderfully personal touch

We absolutely loved working with No Macarena from the very start. Our DJ Josh was so great to work with, took our playlist we provided and made the whole evening flow perfectly. He kept the energy up all throughout dinner and had everyone out on the dance floor all night. Highly

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

No Macarena did a great job at keeping our guests on the dance floor! The night was slow at first, with only a few people on the floor, but he switched up the music and soon everyone was out there dancing. The music was great, up until the very end of the night. We would

Kim the owner is lovely and easy to work with! The prices are very reasonable she is willing to work with you on prices. Another DJ did our wedding since the owner had surgery. They really listen to what you want and do not want in terms of music

We had the pleasure of having the duo of Mike and Joe for our wedding. They were absolutely incredible. Prior to the wedding, we had a phone call where we went over the thorough google doc provided by No Macarena about the music we were looking for for our wedding. They confirmed everything we had

Heather

Oh do we love this DJ company! My husband was the last of three to get married in his family, and his two older brothers used this company when they both got married. They play what YOU want. Our DJ (Ken) was not over the top — he had just the right amount of interaction

  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.

Lorraine B

All communications were organized and friendly. Such a nice perk being able to add all of the songs we wanted played! They did an incredible job mixing our playlist, with all of the uplighting and also providing live drums!! We are so glad that we found and booked their

We love music, No Macarena loves music…GOOD music. We and our guests had the best time at our wedding…our dance floor was packed with all ages of guests the whole night. It makes your night when you see your guests having such a blast and making memories and talking about it for days/weeks/etc to come.

Dianna

Courtney

No Macarena ended up being our favorite wedding Vendor. We worked with DJ Dave, and HIGHLY recommend him!! (As well as working with Kim leading up to the night). Love that they have no restrictions on your music, and truly work to make eclectic music blend. Would echo all reviews that guests did not leave

Courtney Tomlinson

allison

We booked No Macarena after my cousin’s suggestion and could not have been happier with this decision. Our one goal for the wedding was to throw the most epic dance party and ensure that all of our guests had a ball. Our assigned DJ was Dave Devlin, and we were so impressed with him. He

If you are looking for a GREAT company that really cares about what you want, hire No Macarena! They are incredibly reasonable and worth every penny. We are huge music people and didn’t want a cookie cutter reception. The cocktail, dinner, and dance music were exactly what we wanted and everyone had a blast. We

Kim was fantastic and had great taste in music! We gave her a lot of leeway for song selection, and we got so many compliments on the music we had to tell our guests we didn’t pick them! 🙂 Kim was also very helpful with setting up the microphone system for our ceremony. This wasn’t

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

Kim was great! Had used her company previously for a company party, and she did not disappoint day of. Easy to work with, we didn’t want any line dances, etc and she had no problem being the bad guy and declining the music we didn’t want. Great mixes for cocktail and wedding. We gave her

Blown away. These two words genuinely can’t say enough about these guys. Our wedding was anything but normal, but Chris and Sarah of No Macarena made sure the live music and DJ set was above and beyond what we could have expected. Their deep love for what they do and for music itself was evident

Irene K

Samantha

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

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!

No Macarena DJs were a great addition to our wedding vendor team. Kim was great at explaining the process to us, as we had not hired a DJ for an event before. She then put us in touch with Dave who was our DJ. He was able to put us at ease with his experience

Amanda

We loved working with Josh on the music for our wedding. He was professional and really thoughtful about the music selection. He also managed to help us narrow down our music vision and select songs that would get people dancing without compromising our tastes. We definitely recommend working with No Macarena if you are looking

We hired “No Macarena” DJ & Custom Music Service for our recent wedding, and we could not have had a better experience. Our wedding planner (an alum from the live music production industry) recommended Kim at “No Macarena” to us, and we were so happy with her services. After all the more traditional wedding elements,

Amazing!!! Dave was our DJ and he was fantastic. So easy to work with and he really understood the vibe we were going for at the wedding. We had a blast and danced all night! Use them- don’t bother looking around. They are the best, hands down.

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

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.

Megan

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!

No Macarena DJ did an amazing job at our May 2023 wedding! They provided live piano music (Chris), DJ services (Zach), and a photo booth (Sarah and team). Chris’ piano renditions of the songs we chose for our ceremony were beautifully performed and exactly what we envisioned. Zach took the time to listen to our

Mary Beth

The music at the reception was a big priority for my husband, so we needed a DJ that would play more than typical wedding music. My husband and I were very happy with Kim from No Macarena. Everyone raved about the music and it seemed like all of our guests were on the dance floor

Mary Beth

Gina

No Macarena was recommended to me by a friend of a friend who had them at her wedding. From my first interaction with Kim she was upbeat, helpful and professional. Darrell was our DJ and when we met with him to discuss our plan, he was knowledgeable about the playlist and agenda we sent over

Gina Telymonde

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

Melanie

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.

Absolutely amazing from the beginning! A detailed document for us to fill out, and then day of our DJ, Kim, was amazing! She worked with the vibes of our crowd and kept the dance floor full the whole

Kim at No Macarena is awesome. It was important to us to find a DJ who just wanted to play music and not constantly attempt to engage the audience and/or talk incessantly on the mic. Kim did just that–she was cool, sat back and played amazing music! People are still telling us how awesome the

Allison

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. We were looking for something that didn’t remind us of a Bar Mitzvah from the 1990s…

No Macarena was great! Joe Pizzio was the DJ for our wedding, including ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Both he and Kim (the owner of the company) were easy to work with and professional.

We could not have asked for a better DJ than Darrel. He did a phenomenal job of knowing exactly what our guests wanted to hear. My husband and I have extremely different tastes in music, and somehow Darrel figured out how to keep both of us happy AND keep our dance floor packed all night.

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

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
