Reviews for 5 Star Events DJ
GUEST




Greg was excellent and did a fabulous job at our wedding. It was important to us to select many of our own songs in advance, and Greg's online system made this fun and easy. He had helpful advice to make sure we had all the important parts of ceremony covered in the weeks before. He did a great job mixing together the different styles of music we had selected, and was really responsive to our requests throughout the night. Everyone had a blast and several people told me they didn't stop dancing as soon as the music began. A great choice!
GUEST




I was not one of the easiest brides to work with - due to my insane life - but I trusted Dave's music choices and he totally pulled through for me. All his song choices were perfection and EVERYONE loved the music - shown by the flash dance party during dinner! People just couldn't stay off the dance floor. Dave was certainly flexible and had excellent taste. He also firmly kept me on track and made sure that I picked songs while never being pushy. Dave was beyond amazing and his DJ skills honestly made the wedding!
GUEST




Greg was the DJ for our big event and he was phenomenal! Before the party, communication with Greg was so easy. He responded to emails quickly and called us exactly when he said he would. At our party we had a lot of people, both adults and kids, and he was able to keep everybody on the dance floor. He played all the music we asked him to and kept the fun going seamlessly. All our guests had a great time and Greg was a huge part of that.
GUEST




Ok so when I started looking into wedding DJs on here, I was a little skeptical. All 5 star reviews? really? BUT YES REALLY! Greg DJ'd my wedding 2 weeks ago and everyone is still talking about how great the music was. People who never dance at weddings were cutting a rug and having a blast all night. Greg was so genuinely nice and great to work with thru the whole process too! He has an entire on-line music request/planning website that is SO helpful to us. We gave him a list of songs we liked (and ones we didn't) and he played all our "must plays" and mixed in some selections based on our crowd and our taste. Highly recommended!
GUEST




Dave did a fantastic job. He did the music for both the ceremony and the reception. He found our unique music requests. He was very sweet. He was also on-time for the wedding despite being rear-ended on the way there. He always had a smile on his face the entire time, and was very attentive. He worked very well with the other vendors. I hope he continues to be a DJ!
GUEST




Amazing!! Greg did such a great job at our wedding, everyone can't stop raving about him. He does a great job of directing the flow of the wedding with out being overly involved. He had some great ideas that we used and everyone thought they were so creative. Not only does he do a great job getting everyone on the dance floor but he is also the nicest guy and very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend Greg to all future brides!!
GUEST




I was the neurotic spreadsheets for my spreadsheets kind of bride who also had lots of experience in the wedding industry prior to planning my own, so I'm embarrassed that it has taken me this long to review DJ DAVE from 5 Star Events. From beginning to end, our first meeting all the way until months after the wedding, he has gone above and beyond what you would expect from most other DJ's. Not only was he amazing and personable and adorable, but he played the coolest songs with lots of fun and unexpected ones thrown in that the crowd went crazy for. He was so professional and so easy to work with, always offering a listening ear or a checklist I may not have already had. He even went so far to send me a special wedding CD of some of our wedding playlist to cheer me up after hearing about a horrible experience with another vendor. Seriously, who is that thoughtful 2 months after a wedding? DJ Dave is. I promise, you will be so happy that you booked him. I will sing his praises forever, and please feel free to message me here if you have any questions or if I can be of more help. DJ Dave was so awesome, we are forever in his debt.
GUEST




We are RAVING about the awesome job of 5-Star Events at our wedding reception last weekend. Now, Dave is the younger brother of the founder and owner, but from the moment we met him, I felt that our party was going to be in great hands and it was! Our wedding had a large and varied guest list and Dave kept the dance floor full the whole time (and our reception involved a LONG dance party, so that is saying something!) My guests were enthusiastic and effusive from the very beginning and I heard someone say, "the great songs just keep coming!" Dave catered to all ages and the older (parental) crowd had a great time early on... and my mom was even joining my friends in the club-type dance-party late in the evening.
You will NOT be disappointed by Greg and Dave at 5-Star!
GUEST




Greg Hodges was an amazing dj! He played all the songs we wanted and didn't play any that we didn't want! He kept everyone on the dance floor all night! At 1 am majority of my guests were still dancing and didn't want to leave! I highly recommend 5 Star Events!!
GUEST




Greg was absolutely amazing!! He was incredibly easy to work with--available through email, in person, and even in skype (which was very helpful!). With each request we had, he was extremely accomodating and helpful, and also had many great suggestions. Being a dancer myself, having great reception music was important to me, but I did not have to worry for a second about the music on my wedding day because I knew Greg would be fabulous--and he was! Thank you Greg for a wonderful night of music!
GUEST




Dave Hodges is fantastic. From the moment we contacted this company, we had wonderful service. Both Dave and Greg were extremely prompt in answering our questions and put us at ease right away. Also, they have plenty of state-of-the art equipment. Dave was our DJ for the wedding, and he surpassed our high expectations. Our crowd danced all night, and many many guests told us that we had a great DJ. At one point it felt like every person was dancing. But more than anything else, I was impressed by Dave's warm and calm demeanor, his organization, and the way he handled our large party for introductions. He was low-key, which is just what we wanted. We had a wedding coordinator to run the ceremony and tell the party when to walk, but, had I to do it over again, I would have Dave do that part too. Don't hesitate to hire him!
GUEST




Greg was the most professional wedding vendor among all the vendors I worked with. He was extremely responsive and so easy to work with throughout the whole planning process. The music was GREAT and exactly the style we were looking for! I would recommend him to anyone!
GUEST




Greg was awesome! We were so impressed by his DJ services- he is really organized and was able to judge our crowd and what they'd dance to so well! Our friends and family had the best time and the dance floor was packed all night. Greg was very responsive and fun to work with, and kept things flowing smoothly on the night of our wedding. He also did cocktail hour music for us & had a great playlist going during dinner! When we first booked with 5star, I was a little apprehensive about how a DJ company could have so many great reviews. As it turns out, he is even better than the reviews say!
GUEST




Greg Hodges is an incredible DJ. Prior to the wedding he was quick to respond to any questions I may have had and he made sure he knew exactly what we wanted for our wedding and he gave us an outline of exactly how our reception would flow. He made sure I was comfortable and happy with our wedding timeline. During the wedding he was amazing! The music at our wedding was the perfect soundtrack for my husband and me. Our guests are still talking about our excellent DJ and how all of the genres and styles of music flowed together. I did not stop dancing all night and the dance floor remained packed! Our wedding was wonderful and Greg Hodges played a huge part in making sure everyone had a great time! I offer no hesitation in reccommending him as a DJ!
GUEST




Dave was just what we wanted. He listened to all of our input and made sure that everything was done correctly. He was easy to contact and went out of his way to make sure that details were taken care of. He uses the latest tech seamlessly, and was able to make sure that even our most out of left field song request was fit in perfectly. He never gave up on a tough crowd and made sure that everyone kept dancing. Dave was exceptionally attentive and professional, we highly recommend 5 Star Events.
GUEST




Dave did a great job and we had a great time at our wedding. All we've been hearing is how much fun everyone had and that the dancing was out of control. Everyone was into it and we've heard compliments of the DJ from many of our friends. He met with us beforehand not only to go over the planning but to get to know us, and he definitely read the crowd perfectly and kept the party at a great pace. We had a blast and couldn't have planned for our wedding to go any better. Dave made the party even better for all of us.
GUEST




We recently had Dave DJ our June wedding. He was unbelievable. I didn't have to worry about a thing. He made it so easy. From our first meeting with him till the end of the night Dave was very attentive to our needs. He listened and got to know us through some meetings and email. He did a really good job choosing the right songs that fit us and "making the wedding our own". The website they have made it very easy for us to plan our wedding and organize every detail. Dave was very organized and responsive to last minute changes we had. Dave knew exactly what to play to keep our guest on their feet. We had a great time and our guest can't stop talking out it. I highly recommend Dave at 5 Star Events. Thanks Dave!
GUEST




We worked with Greg for our wedding that was a few weeks ago and it and he were exceptional! The dance floor was packed from almost the moment it began with people of all ages!
Greg is the most organized person that I have met in a long time! He has a binder that he gave us that walked us through the reception event/ timeframe; provides you with songs and titles in different categories (i.e Fatehr daughter dance, first dance, etc); names and order of the wedding party, names of the parents, etc, etc. Additionally, hegives you access to his system where you can listen and download songs that you want him to play. We met with him twice prior to our wedding and talked out the logistics of the reception; set up a timeline for the reception that he then shared with all of the others involved in the event; sorted out what music to play when; and the overall feel we wanted at our reception- and he did it all of this flawlessly. Moreover, he kept things moving during the reception by working collaboratively with the site coordinator and wedding coordinator so that we were able to maximize the time we had at the reception. Everyone who met him loved working with him!
Greg is smart, talented, intuitive, organized, friendly and is a wealth of resources. He is responsible for creating music software for DJs used throughout the country. He made the event so much fun and festive. He was able to sense when the songs were hits and when we needed to move on and did it flawlessly. During our first dance, the song began to feel too long so with one quick look, he knew to invite others to join us on the dance floor. Marvelous...
Also of note, I began receiving calls the day after our wedding through as recent as today about how much fun it was, how great the music was and how ice Greg was when approached with requests!
I truly can't say enough great things about him, his level of professionalism, organization and wonderful personality and his company. Anyone who includes him in their event is sure to have an exceptional event.
GUEST




Dave recently did our wedding at the Liberty Hotel and he was absolutely fabulous. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone. First of all, he was SO helpful during the weeks leading up to the wedding, keeping us organized with the online system and checking in just the right amount to make sure we were on track ;) I love how they enable you to build song request lists and outline the evening. On the actual night, Dave made sure everything went off smoothly and met with our coordinator at the hotel beforehand so all entrances and events (cake cutting, bouquet dance, etc.) were seamless.
Then of course, there's the music and he did such a great job of selecting music that everyone would enjoy, mixing more contemporary and classic songs so EVERYONE (really, people I've never seen dance before) was dancing. Let's just say even my mom and her friends were doing the dougie and loving it. When midnight rolled around, we had to ask him to stay for another hour because there was still a big group partying. It's a night we will never forget and Dave was an instrumental part of that!
GUEST




Greg worked with Jon and I for our wedding on Memorial Day weekend of this summer (2010). He was an absolute delight to work with leading up to our wedding. He was flexible, had great advice, and was always available to talk to us. He even helped us to fix a last minute seating arrangement snafu two days before the wedding!
We have had dozens and dozens of our guests tell us that our reception was amazing and we have the pictures of everyone dancing to prove it. Greg gave us exactly what we wanted with a night of great songs, great dancing, and for Jon and I, the confidence that we were supported by the BEST DJ. Jon and I both feel that Greg got to know us so well that he was able to provide a personal experience which nobody else could have provided.
Greg Hodges is an absolute professional and will give you exactly the wedding reception you've been dreaming of. We feel nothing but incredibly lucky that he was able to work our wedding. To all the engaged couples out there, you are missing out if you do not use Greg Hodges as your wedding DJ!!
Sincerely,
Brooke Lombardy
GUEST




Easiest, most convenient, most professional DJ service I have ever had the pleasure of working with. My wife and I planned our wedding from New York and 5 star Events went out of their way to make it as easy and painless for us as possible.
Dave and Greg work great together as a team and did everything under the sun to make sure that we had absolutely zero to worry about on the day of our wedding. Due to my work schedule a lot of my e-mails would go out around 11pm or later, and without fail I would have a response to any e-mail within the hour. These guys must never sleep!!
They put together itineraries for us, and even sent them out to other vendors involved in the wedding so that they would know what to expect and when (was especially helpful for the photographers).
Dave was so easy to work with, he was getting last minute important song changes, such as the father/daughter song less than an hour before the dance was set to take place and he didn't miss a single beat. His professional announcements throughout the festivities were welcomed by all. His ability to give them throughout the night with keeping the focus on the bride and myself not making the DJ the center of attention spoke wonders of him and his company. Dave even went to the extent of buying a matching tie to match the bridesmaids dresses!! He had bodies on the dance floor from the second we were introduced to 30 minutes after we had hired him for!
Unforgettable night made extra special by having great music played all night long! Would recommend them to anybody, anywhere, anytime!
GUEST




Dave from 5 Star Events was the DJ at our wedding and he did an outstanding job turning our reception into a fabulous party which all of our guests are still talking about five weeks later. We're an older couple and we wanted to have just the right mix of music that would cater to both young and older adults...our biggest fear prior to the wedding was no one would dance. With our first dance our fears were quickly dashed as the floor was packed with people and that was only the beginning as the night turned into a really fun evening for all ages. Personally, Dave is incredibly organized and extremely cooperative and easy to deal with. Many of my guests spoke with Dave during the wedding and they were all so impressed with his style and professionalism. In my opinion, Dave and 5 Star Events represents the Best of Boston in the world of DJ's.
GUEST




First of all, Greg is the greatest! We had a day wedding and I was anxious to see if anyone would actually get on the dance floor but as soon as the reception began all my worries disappeared. Everyone got out and danced and had such a great time that at the end of our wedding they were chanting "encore". He's that good!
GUEST




t was a pleasure to work with Greg Hodges for our wedding music. Our First Dance song was too long for our nervous footwork, so he whipped up a shorter version (by 1 minute) that was so seamless it was barely noticeable that the song had been altered at all. He was great at finding songs that we had custom-picked, and his online interface is very easy to use. He's a great, personable guy and it was very easy to contact him either over the phone or through Skype videochat. People definitely had a good time dancing at our wedding, and Greg's equipment, speakers, and digital turntable were perfect for our event.
GUEST




Greg is a phenomenal DJ. If you hire him, he will put bodies on the dance floor and it is as simple as that. He very adeptly had three or four generations of people all having a great time, the entire time. Just a spectacular party, and if you are reading this, he should be your guy.
Nuts and bolts: very responsive to communications, web setup lets you add playlist songs whenever they may pop into your head, he will meet to discuss things and address your concerns, whatever they may be. Runs the party/reception with authority but without calling attention to himself. Then bumps the beats, gauging the crowd to make sure he gets everyone moving.
All-around fantastic experience and I recommend this DJ for any event.
GUEST




Greg was amazing from the first moment we started dealing with him. I'm a big picture/macro person and my wife is a very detail oriented/micro person and Greg and his "system" were able to accommodate both of us superbly. I loved the "do not play list" and my wife really liked being able to really set the tone of our reception based on the type of music yet giving Greg the flexibility to pick songs, read the crowd and adjust accordingly. From little kids to old people I never thought would make it up on the dance floor Greg had the dance floor filled from start to finish, the time flew and everyone was sad for the night to end. Hindsight being 20/20 the only thing we would have changed is we would have added another half hour of music onto our reception. Thanks again, Greg!!!
GUEST




5 Star Events went above and beyond to help us plan our wedding. Greg was more than helpful on non-DJ questions that came up during the planning process. He has endless ideas and ways to keep everyone happy (as we all know it is not easy planning a wedding). On the day of our wedding, he kept the dance floor full all night, playing a mix of music for all of our guests! Thanks GREG!!!! I highly recommend 5 Star Events!!
GUEST




Dave was the DJ for our wedding on 3/26/11. He went above and beyond what my husband and I expected from a wedding DJ. Before our wedding, Dave worked meticulously to help us find the right music for our ceremony and reception. On our wedding day, he kept the dance floor packed all night (with all age groups!). I would highly recommend Dave as a DJ for any event - all our guests are still talking about how wonderful a job he did!
GUEST




From the outset of our wedding planning, my fiance and I placed the musical entertainment at the top of our priority list. We have been to many weddings and have seen firsthand that a good DJ can make the party (and a bad one can ruin it). We knew we wanted the best, and we found that with Greg Hodges. He was thorough, detail-oriented, and very perceptive about the type of reception we wanted. We maintained from the beginning that we wanted a reception with a musical selection that would appeal to everyone. Greg knew exactly what we wanted, and he more than delivered. Everyone in our party was dancing all night and there was not a single song played that caused people to take a breather. It was fantastic.
Even more important was the fact that we had a pleasure working with Greg throughout the process. His enthusiasm for his profession is contagious, his web-based tools are innovative and helpful, and his commitment to delivering what the wedding couple wants is superb. We highly recommend Greg for any occasion!
GUEST




We hired Greg Hodges for our February wedding and he was fantastic! Throughout the planning process, he was always very responsive and had lots of ideas. When I wanted a very hard to find song for our ceremony (it's not even on any album anywhere), he found it for me somehow, and when my dad wanted our father-daughter dance to be to a somewhat lesser-known 1950's group, he not only got that song for us, but also the whole album in case my dad wanted to hear other songs from that group.
Greg's enthusiasm and excitement for what he does makes the whole process fun and stress-free. He is super detail oriented and I believe he set up like 3 hours early on our wedding day!
He did a good job of playing lots of danceable songs, but I think the ultimate compliment was that during the reception, a close friend asked me if I had chosen all the songs because all the music was so "us". When I told her I left that to Greg after just discussing the vibe we were going for, she was very impressed (and so were we!) that he was able to create such an amazingly personal musical atmosphere.
I highly recommend Greg + 5 Star Events for any event!
GUEST




One of the most important pieces to a wedding is the DJ and Greg was amazing! He had the place rocking all night long! He has a wonderful personality, is an extremely nice guy, and was very accommodating to our schedule. He did an outstanding job at our wedding and I would highly recommend him to anyone that is in need of a DJ.
GUEST




We can't say enough about how amazing it was to work with Greg as our DJ. He was incredibly helpful and spent a ton of time with us around the planning. He was able to provide excellent suggestions for the night and was completely flexible around our schedule. He was even able to provide suggestions for wedding details outside of his DJ role that were fantastic. He was able to set-up several locations at our event and provide exactly the right music we were looking for. We highly recommend him for any event and hope to use his services again in the future.
GUEST




There isn't anything bad to say about Greg. He kept the party going all night long. The first meeting we had with him he showed us how excited he was to do our wedding and kept on coming up with ideas. That showed us how passionate he is about his job. Definately a true class act.
GUEST




WOW! Greg & 5 Star Events was the best! We had been to 2 other weddings where we was the DJ before we booked him so we knew he was be great. We were very specific on what we wanted for our playlist and Greg was more than happy to accommodate. We met before the wedding to discuss our vision and Greg was so enthusiastic about our music that it made us feel at ease. He helped us figure out some great songs for announcements and parent dances too. On the wedding day, our guests were thrilled with the music. The dance floor was packed the entire night! We really feel that a wedding is nothing without great music and Greg made our wedding better than we imagined. It's been almost 10 months since we've been married and our guests are still commenting on how great our dj was. I would recommend Greg to anyone planning a wedding or special event. I am confident we will be using him again in the future for special occasions. Thanks Greg!!!
GUEST




Greg is amazing. We had a small wedding, but the dance floor was packed the entire time thanks to his great selections! I really appreciated that he met with me in person a few weeks before the event to talk logisitics and flow, and listen to my song preferences. He was extremely professional - and left out all the cheesy DJ chatter that you sometimes get at weddings from other DJs. The services are very well priced and a great value for the very high quality!
GUEST




We hired Greg to DJ our November wedding and he did an outstanding job. Greg was always extremely accessible and always responded very quickly. He went above and beyond. Everyone was up and dancing throughout the wedding. Greg did a phenomenal job of catering to all age groups during the wedding to ensure everyone had a blast. The dance floor was packed! My friends raved about what an excellent job Greg did at our wedding. Additionally, his website was very user friendly and easy to navigate. I would strongly recommend him as a DJ. Excellent choice! We are so glad we used him as our DJ.
GUEST




It was a pleasure working with Greg. Beyond the DJ services, he gave us valuable insight and ideas for other aspects of our wedding. He was very accomodating to our schedules in arranging meetings prior to our big day. Greg, being an amateur photographer as well, took tons of pictutures and shared them with us. Our guests loved the music selection and his MC skills were professional and personal. We highly recommend 5 Star Events DJ for any event. He would even make a funeral fun ;-)
GUEST




Greg is fantastic! He kept the party going all night! He's excellent at feeling out the crowd and choosing the right music! He was super helpful with all aspects of the wedding and readily available to help with anything we asked for! I'm so happy we chose him! He was perfect!
GUEST




I cannot begin to describe how AMAZING Greg Hodges is. He DJ'd my sisters wedding back in February of 2008 and as soon as my husband and I got engaged in July of 2009, we immediately booked Greg. Our dance floor was jam packed all night because of Greg- I totally trusted Greg's opinion so had told him to play whatever he thought our guests would like. Not only does he have great taste in music but he did such a great job in reading our guests and knowing how to cater to all different ages and music preferences. I had at least 10 guests come up to my on our wedding night or call us after our honeymoon to compliment our DJ and ask for his information. He is professional, friendly, reliable, down to earth and overall just a class act. Our family has dubbed him our family DJ and you can be sure that we will be using his services exclusively for any/all future events. THANK YOU so much Greg- you're the best!
GUEST




We had David Hodges as our wedding DJ and he was perfect. Planning my wedding was so much easier knowing I didn't have to worry about him and what he may play :) He respected my wishes and when a guest tried to get him to play "The Macarena" David very quickly asked me if it would be ok (I had asked him for "no cheese"). I have already recomended his services to friends. Great job David and thank you!!
GUEST




Greg did a great job from the begining of our reception to the very last song. If your looking for a DJ that keeps the dance floor packed and everyone moving all night then Greg is your man. He also did a great job of keeping us on schedule to make sure we partied as much as possible. I would recommend 5 Star Events to anyone thats looking for a DJ.
GUEST




September 25, 2010: DJ Dave Hodges made the reception....I can't explain it any better than that. He was professional, flexible (and we threw a lot at him, last minute), courteous, PREPARED, fun...at some very stressful moments, he remained calm and immediately put us at ease. Honestly, it was a perfect night, enjoyed by everyone (and no exaggeration, half of the guest were deaf! and still had a great time and danced!!..and my 77 year old father even said the music wasn't too loud and enjoyed himself). Speaking of deaf attendees; we also threw at Dave interpreters...they loved him also! Anything I can do to get the word out that THIS is the guy you need to DJ your event! I have no regrets and neither will you.
Dave: you may give out my number to anyone looking for a reference!
Thanks for being apart of our awesome wedding day memories!
Sincerely,
THE GROOM
GUEST




Greg did such an amazing job DJing our wedding! Our dance floor was packed all night and we could not have asked for a better person to work with! He played a fantastic mix of songs and everyone has told us how much fun they had dancing at our wedding/ how great the music was! Greg was wonderful through the whole planning process as well. He was very quick with responses and very helpful. His website also had a great online planning tool and the music was coordinated well ahead of the actual wedding day. We cannot say enough good things and Greg and would highly recommend him. He has done several of my friends weddings as well and we were thrilled to be able to book him for our date too!
GUEST




Greg was absolutely amazing! He did such a wonderful job, we danced all night long. I was so happy with Greg, I would highly suggest people to book him. He knows so much about music and wants you to have a great time. Greg was really flexible with every thing I asked for, even a last minute song request the day before the wedding. Greg really kept the party going, he did not play one bad song in my mind, the dance floor was full the whole time! Very, very, very happy Bride!
GUEST




Dave was fantastic! It started with the excellent website that made planning very easy, to one-on-one meetings to make sure we got what we wanted WHEN we wanted it. Dave managed the times and course of events flawlessly and allowed us to do something most couples don't get to do on their wedding night: RELAX! He took our music suggestions and ideas and weaved together a great playlist. He also read the temperature of the room perfectly. We had people on the dance floor to the bitter end.
Thanks again, Dave.

Greg Hodges played at my cousins wedding a few years ago, he had everyone ( I mean everyone) on the dance floor. A few years later when I got engaged I knew instantly we had to have him DJ our wedding. He was the most professional vendor we had. If I sent an email, he wrote right back, if I left him a voice mail, he called right back! He had very helpful ideas and suggestions and is an overall great person to work with! You will not be dissapointed with his work.... he will have your guests "fist pumping" all night long!!
P.S He also does uplighting!
GUEST




Dave was awesome to work with! He was easy to work with and very flexible and the online planning tool was AWESOME! It was actually fun to just go on and look through the music - thousands and thousands of songs to choose from! Dave made sure our wedding day went very smoothly! Since my sister was so nervous to give her maid of honor speech Dave held the microphone and her drink the entire time - he was so great!
GUEST




Greg did an excellent job at our wedding! He balanced party involvement and letting the party go by itself perfectly. We had some unique requests for music and Greg delivered, he play sections of songs on loop and cut out other portions of music for us. He understood our music style and played tracks that meshed with what we wanted. Everyone loved the music, evident by the full dance floor all night long!
GUEST




THANK YOU for everything!! We had such a blast... the music was fabulous. So many people have mentioned to us that they've never seen a dance floor so packed. Well done :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
GUEST




Greg Hodges with 5 Star Events is an amazing DJ. Our experience with him from the beginning was wonderful. From our first phone conversation, first meeting, follow up conversations, to his performance at the wedding, Greg was hands down a class act all the way. His goal is to play music that the couple and the crowd want to hear and dance to. And he delivered beyond our expectations. He has an incredible online planning/music program that makes the process a breeze and even enjoyable. He worked with our ceremony musician to place state of the art speakers in the proper places, and the songs he played were always the right choice. He really listens to the clients needs and is extremely professional, organized, and talented. He makes the music the center of attention, rather than himself. I can't say enough about Greg. Thanks so much, Greg for helping to make our wedding the best day of our lives!
GUEST




We absolutely loved our DJ Dave! The music was perfect for the different sections of the day (ie Lunch vs Party). We even wanted him to stay and enjoy the day with us! Highly recommended!!
GUEST




DJ Dave was the absolutely perfect DJ and this is coming from the mother of the bride. Not only did he have a huge variety of music on offer but he was so easy to work with and immediately made us all feel confident that he and everything about the wedding was going to be great. Everything the bride chose he played and for any of the gaps that she hadn't decided on Dave chose exactly the right music for the moment. He truly couldn't have been better, more professional, or easier to work with. He was the perfect combination of professional and friendly If I could have given him a rating higher than 5 stars I would have. I cannot recommend him highly enough, he was terrific!
GUEST




Dave Hodges with 5 Star Events is fantastic at his job! He inspired confidence from the begining, which meant that I was able to leave the music in his hands and only worry about the other millions of details. I totally trusted him, and was right to because everything worked out perfectly! Dave was so easy to work with. We did most of our wedding planning from abroad, but it was never a problem contacting him by email and he was always very quick to respond. So by the time we met in person I was totally at ease. We had more of a feel for how we wanted the music to be than an actual playlist and Dave was able to still give us exactly what we wanted. I loved every song that was played and it gave our ceremony and reception exactly the mood we were hoping for. Dave was very professional, friendly, and and it was such a relief when he arrived early to set up, so that I could head off to the church knowing that everything would be ready when the guests arrived. Even with a mixed crowed of old, young, Americans and Brazilians, he was able to get everyone up dancing and having a good time. Perfect DJ! I would very highly recommend Dave to anyone planning a wedding or a party. One of our guest asked him to DJ their party the week after the wedding!
GUEST




We were extremely thrilled with the services Greg provided for our wedding. The music; from cocktail hour through last dance, was spot on to what we wanted and clearly our guests had a blast. We greatly appreciated how clearly Greg understood the types of music we wanted through each part of the reception, and with limited direction from us achieved the atmosphere we had hoped for. Greg's DJ abilities certainly added to the awesome experience for everyone. So many of our guests commented on how great the music was and how much fun they had. It was really top notch.

I am the Mother of the Bride. Three years ago my son was married and Greg was the DJ at their wedding in Boston. I was immediately impressed by his style. Greg is very friendly and personable. He immediately engaged the guests with a variety of music, which resulted in a full dance floor throught the night. So many people commented on the "DJ". When my daughter announced her engagement our family did not consider anyone else except Greg. Her wedding took place August 13th and we could not have been more pleased. The dance floor was never empty. Like my son and daughter-in-law's wedding, so many guest told us what a great time they had at the wedding. Greg was always a gentleman and kept the atmosphere alive.
Thank you Greg for a fantastic wedding!
You are 2 for 2 with our family!
GUEST




We had Dave Hodges as our wedding DJ and he was awesome! I have had so many comments and compliments from my guests about how much fun they had dancing! My husband and I just watched our wedding video and the dance floor was packed from the time the dancing started to the end of the night! I couldn't have asked for anything more! He played great music that all ages enjoyed! My husband and I are extremely pleased and will definitely be recommending Dave to all of our friends!
GUEST




Dave Hodges was the 5 Star DJ at our wedding and he did an amazing job! I was extremely impressed by his professionalism and accommodating attitude. My husband and I were not able to be on the Cape until the week of the wedding. Dave drove over an hour to meet with us and iron out last minute details once we arrived in town, making the process stress-free. He was also very responsive through both email and phone contact whenever we had any questions. The DJ set up was perfect for the size of the venue and he never took a break during the night. All the music was exactly what we asked for and he kept the party going the entire night. He was also very flexible when we wanted to hear something specific. We got tons of compliments on the music and the atmosphere that it created. I would definitely recommend using 5 Star Events and Dave Hodges for any special occasion.
GUEST




After meeting with Dave Hodges we knew he was the DJ we wanted for our wedding. From the start, he helped us organize the flow of the reception by giving us a guide to work off of as well as an online planning tool. The planning tool is great because it is full of every song you could think of and even has different lists of song suggestions just in case there are songs you know you would like played, but forgot to put on your list. I really liked the fact that Dave was professional and easy to work with as well as available to answer any questions I had. Our reception was absolutely perfect and Dave really worked with the mood of the crowd and kept us dancing all night! We all had an amazing night and we are so happy we chose Dave to share it with us as our DJ. Thank you so much, Dave!
GUEST




Greg from 5 star did such a great job at our wedding. You can tell he loves what he does and had our dance floor packed all night. He was very professional and managed our play lists very well. He got a great read on the crowd and kept people going all night by stacking dance song after dance song based on the crowd. He doesn't play any silly games or fill up the night talking all night - he made appropriate announcements and worked with the venue to time things perfectly. Greg was also incredibly responsive to my questions through the planning process.

Wedding date: May 14, 2010 at Indian Pond Country Club Kingston MA
I am the Mother of the Bride and we were thoroughly pleased with Greg Hodges! This man delivered everything he said he would and more! Through the process he maintained a high level of integrity and commitment to our daughter's wedding. AND he responded to emails quite promptly with answers and suggestions when we needed them. AT the reception he kept a handle on the flavor and dynamics of the guests and his song selections for the "PARTY" even enticed 80 year old ladies to get out there and shake their booties! as they danced with all the younger generation! Greg was successful in "closing the gap" as far as THAT was concerned! Greg was always a gentleman and demonstrated the utmost respect to the bridal party and guests. He was professional at all times and demonstrated immense talent in technical aspects, visual/auditory ambiance, and attention to the essence of the celebration. We received the highest quality at a very reasonable cost.
We are confident that we chose the perfect DJ for this wedding. People are still talking about it! We highly recommend Greg Hodges 5 Star Events! Thank you for a spectacular time, Greg!!!!
GUEST




We used Greg for our wedding on February 13th at the Red Lion Inn in Cohasset. Our original DJ cancelled on us a month before the wedding due to health issues. Luckily for us, he recommended Greg to us. We met with Greg shortly thereafter and he was kind enough to accept the terms of the contract with our original DJ. Greg was very accomodating with music requests, even setting up a webpage for our guests to make requests on. We had certain guidelines on songs that we wanted played and songs that we didn't want played, and Greg covered them all. He did a fantastic job at the wedding, once dinner was over people were on the dancefloor the entire time. I've had numerous people comment to myself and my wife that it was the most fun they've had at weddings and that the DJ did an excellent job. I would highly recommend Greg again and have done just that to another friend who is getting married this summer. 5 stars easily, I'd rate higher if it was possible. Thanks again!
GUEST




We were extremely pleased with Greg's service for 5 Star Events. His knowledge about his business is impressive and he is absolutely up-to-date with technology. We received several comments from our wedding guests about Greg and his music system. We highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a great d.j.
GUEST




Greg was outstanding! My husband and I wanted a DJ that left the dancing to us, and the music playing to him-- and that's exactly what we got. We didn't want a DJ that stole the show- played games, or talked on the mic.....in our opinion, the "dancing" portion of the wedding is for just that..."dancing!"
He truly was fantastic. I never had to worry about what song was going to play next-- or if the dance floor would stay packed. Greg handled everything!
When you work with vendors, you want to be sure that you have absolute trust in them- and we did in Greg. He had never worked at the location where our wedding was (The Union Club of Boston), so to be sure he knew where he was going, how he would set up, a few weeks before the wedding, on his own, he took a walk through so that the day ran smoothly on his end and our end.
I cannot say enough about him and 5 Star events-- we even hired him to do out lighting for the dance floor. With an old, historic Boston building, he was able to keep the elegant setting of the Beacon Hill location, with proper lighting that stepped up the room so that our quests knew that there is where the party was going to get to the next level.
I HIGHLY recommend Greg.
Thanks!

Greg was the DJ at our wedding a few weeks ago and we couldn't speak more highly of him! We met with him about a month prior and could tell he was really interested in creating the atmosphere we were looking for, which was fairly laid back in terms of first dances, cake cutting, etc. but then having great dance music as the evening went on. He had many really helpful suggestions regarding ceremony music as well as order of events throughout the night. Greg is very friendly and personable as well as professional. All of our guests tell us what a great time they had at our wedding and we owe this to Greg! We definitely will be recommending him to our friends and family!

GUEST




Greg, thank you for making our wedding so memorable. You kept things moving beautifully and really catered to the mood of the guests. You indulged both the younger and older crowds and kept everyone dancing the whole night. I will recommend you to everyone I know for all events! You really made the evening come together flawlessly and I can't thank you enough.
Continued success to you!

GUEST




DJ Dave Hodges was phenomenal! Greg was unavailable for our date so he set us up with Dave and he did a fantastic job, we couldn't have been happier! He made sure every detail was covered and that we were getting all the music we wanted and none of the music we didn't. The online planning forms were very convenient and easy to use. We also did a dvd slideshow and it was a big hit. Dave fit the music selection to the crowd and everyone had a great time. I would recommend him to anyone that asked!!! Thanks for a great time
GUEST




From the moment that we first met Greg we knew that he was the man for the job; he was absolutely great to work with! We booked both a DJ and Band; after sitting down with Greg, he assured us that he would contact the band and coordinate all of the details with them, which took some of the stress off of us. Once we gave him an idea of what music we liked, he was able to take care of the rest. Aside from being a great DJ, Greg is also a great guy; we're so happy that we chose him to DJ our special day.
GUEST




The DJ was awesome. We gave him a list of songs not to play and someone asked for it and he had to turn them down per orders of the bride and groom. He did everything we had hoped and them some. It was amazing.
GUEST




My husband and I had the best time at our wedding due to our DJ Greg Hodges! All of our guests said what a great time they had at our wedding; they all loved the music and were dancing all night. Greg is a fantastic DJ and will play all the music you request; as well as keep the dance floor happy. Greg also has a great personality and is fun to work with. I would highly recommend DJ Greg Hodges from 5 Star Events.
GUEST




Greg Hodges of 5 Star Events did a fabulous job as the MC and DJ for our wedding reception in Cohasset. He was great to work with in the planning stages and exceeded our expectations on our special day! After going to several other weddings this Summer/Fall with many friends that attended our wedding, everyone agreed Greg was the best of all the DJ's. His planning sheets and music suggestions were extremely helpful and if you want to select lots of songs for him to play his website is a breeze to use. We only selected a few songs and left the rest up to him and he kept the dance floor packed the entire night. Greg's equipment is also top notch and sounded great. His idea for a congo line centerpiece giveaway game to get the dancing started was a huge hit and we'll never forget it.
In searching for a DJ my wife and I wanted someone we could trust to run the show, but not BE the show. We are thrilled we had Greg as our DJ and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and personable DJ for their next wedding or event.
GUEST




WOW! Greg kept our dance floor alive ALL night. He has a true talent in feeling out the crowd and keeping the atmosphere alive. I have received countless compliments on my DJ!
GUEST




WOW! We are so happy with the DJ services provided by Greg Hodges. My husband and I were given his name by a family friend to look at him as a potential DJ for our wedding. It was the best recommendation we have ever received! Greg played the music at our ceremony and it was flawless. During the reception, he was very professional and everything ran smoothly. The dance floor was packed and our guests are still talking about the music from the wedding! I 100% HIGHLY recommend Greg Hodges as your DJ for any event.
GUEST




Greg did an absolutely fantastic job at our wedding! We were thrilled with the music, as were all of our guests. In addition to providing such terrific music, Greg did a lot of trouble shooting throughout our day, including providing equipment for our ceremony that we had forgotten to ask him about! He did a great job of working with our caterer to keep things moving smoothly for the entire day.
During our planning stages, I found Greg's planning software to be incredibly helpful and easy to use. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great DJ!
~Melissa & Jamie
GUEST




Greg Hodges is a great DJ and clearly loves his job. Greg has the best equipment (not bulky), has back up units (that he brings to the venue), incredibly organized (provided us with a binder with questions, ideas and suggestions before we even had made our final choice) and is very accomodating. He is great, I would use him again and highly recommend his services.
GUEST




This guy is amazing! THE BEST! The 2 things people remember at a wedding are the food and the music. 5 Star Events ensures that it will be an awesome event. Greg has a very technolocically advanced sound system, the knowledge of music, and the recognition of crowd, to keep the party going strong throughout the event. He gives you the means to select any music and to green light or red light any favorites or must not plays, all from the comfort of your home computer.
GUEST




Greg is an absolutely amazing DJ. We knew right away that we wanted to use him for our wedding. So much so that we changed our date to make sure he was available. He has great suggestions for music for everything from the ceremony to the last dance. His website has online planning tools that make it so easy to pick out music. Everyone has commented that the music at the reception was amazing and everyone danced all night long.
GUEST




Greg did a wonderful job with our wedding reception. All of our guest keep saying how fun the wedding was and it was because of the music. We were dancing from the moment we walked in until the end of the night. I highly recommend him!! We had a great time!
GUEST




5 Star Events was phenomenal. The owner & DJ, Greg Hodges, was the best DJ we have ever experienced. My husband and I wanted a no-fuss but extremely fun reception. Greg helped us deliver that. Every single person I have spoken to, has told us that we had the most fun wedding ever. Greg spent as much time with we wanted, planning our big day. With just one meeting, we were able to plan out the entire reception timeline and Greg gave us great advice every time. His online planing tools enabled us to document our reception timeline (everything from when the 1st dance would be held to when the entrees should be served) as well as tools to request the songs that we wanted played. As we wanted everything from Weird Al Yankovich's "Yoda" for my 7 year old nephew to specific songs from the 80's, 90's and current for our friends and of course Frank Sinatra for the older crowd---we wanted quite a wide variety of songs. Not only did Greg have all of the songs, but the way he sequenced them was genius. He literally kept the dance floor full the entire time.
I can't say enough about Greg. I also went to another wedding where Greg DJ'd, and the couple wasn't as particular about the music as my husband and I were. The end result was the same---the dance floor was full the entire time. So whether you want to be very involved in the music selection as my husband and I were or want to be hands off--the end result is the same....the dance floor is full. And it feels effortless, but I know it is not. Greg knows his music and he knows how to keep the energy going.
One last thing. Greg is pretty low key. He does a great job announcing what you want him to announce (the entrance, the cake cutting, etc) but he isn't out there clowning around. We didn't want that. He is 100% focused on keeping the party going, which is exactly what we did want. The music spoke for itself and didn't need anything extra.
By the way, Greg's equipment was phenomenal---the sound and lights were crystal clear and if you want powerhouse bass, Greg can deliver that too!
Hiring 5 Star Events DJ was the best decision we made for the entire wedding. We highly recommend him!
GUEST




Greg was amazing. His system was so easy to use and to request songs and he was so flexible the day of with extra requests that our family and friends had. He made sure to ask me first as not to disrupt anything and I so appreciated it. He was in the background but the dance floor was packed from dinner until the end. Noone wanted hte night to end and we have had so many comments on how fun our wedding was...I can only attribute that to greg and the vibe he set. Thank you, thank you, thank you for making our wedding so great and memorable. I only wish we threw parties like this every year. It is so amazing to me that greg djed my sister's wedding 10 years ago and it was equally as great!!
GUEST




Greg was the perfect DJ for our wedding and we recommend him without reservation. Not only was he very professional (honest, straight-forward) and easy to work with, the system he has for choosing songs is ideal: very comprehensive, quick and easy. We wanted our DJ to play different, more modern, new and alternative music to the traditional songs heard at every wedding. Greg exceeded our expectations. We live in New York City and did everything for the music remotely. It went off without a hitch and there were no surprises. For all of these reasons, we highly recommend Greg Hodges of 5 Star Events.
GUEST




Greg was my favorite vendor!! He was extremely knowledgeable and professional and I'd give him an A+. He is someone that truly LOVES his job and you can tell this as soon as you meet him. His site is great to work with when planning your songs and entire flow of the event. He also did GOBO lighting for us and it looked really nice. I would HIGHLY recommend 5 Star Events.
GUEST




Greg was an absolute joy to work with. His sound system is amazing. Any song you want he will make sure he has it and you can pre-plan as much of your event as you'd like on his easy to use computer web site. We got many compliments from guests on the quality of his work. People were interested in getting his info from us to book him for their own events. We are so happy we chose Greg and so were all of our guests!! Our wedding was a blast and we owe that to Greg.
Can I also just add, that my wedding happened to fall on a weekend that we got 11 inches of rain. (If you knew me and my luck that would not surprise you!!)There were many obstacles that presented at the last minute due to the weather and Greg was so flexible and you'd never know how much commotion was going on behind the scenes (trolley broke down, guests were late, issues with the tent, etc). Greg was so professional and we felt totally comfortable knowing that Greg was taking care of our guests in the function room while we were dealing with the many other issues. He is worth every penny. You will be glad that you chose Greg for your event. I would not normally take time out of my schedule to write a review but I honestly would like other couples to know what a gem Greg is and hope he is available for their wedding date. We really lucked out. Book him early if you can..........
GUEST




Greg was super easy to work with and his site makes choosing songs simple. I was planning my Massachusetts wedding from New York and we only needed one in person meeting and the rest was all over the phone/email. The website has a great planning tool and a list of 200 songs that are popular at weddings so you can easily pick which you like and which ones you DONT like. He'll also get you whatever songs aren't listed in his extensive database (way beyond the top 200 songs). He also did the music for my ceremony (over speakers) and it was awesome. Everyone danced the entire night and he didn't do much talking. It was all about the bride and groom!
GUEST




I would very highly recommend Greg to anyone. He is very easy to work with and he knows what he is doing. Three months after my wedding I am still receiving comments about how much fun it was and a HUGE part of that was the music. Greg did the music for the cocktail hour which many people told me was just perfect. For the reception, we did karaoke along with dancing. We were a little nervous about how it would work out but it ended up being the best time! Greg played exactly the kind of music we wanted. I had so much fun at my wedding and I thank Greg for setting the atmosphere we wanted.
GUEST




Greg did such a wonderful job with our wedding. He was extremely helpful with every request and couldn't have been more receptive to our special requests. The dance floor was full the entire reception. We really could not have asked for a better DJ. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
GUEST




Greg Hodges of Five Star Events is THE best DJ you could possibly hire for your event. Being my first wedding, and hopefully last... I was relieved when I realized how much more than just a DJ Greg is. After some 15 or 20 years in the wedding business, Greg pretty much knows everyone who works weddings. We took his recommendations on acoustic music, our JP, site locations and a whole lot more. By hiring Greg you get the most experienced wedding consultant you could possibly hire... and a great DJ! I work in audio and video production, and I was fascinated at how Five Star DJ employs the latest technologies to make the entire process easy. His website allowed us to flag songs on a very convenient and easy to use interface, from anywhere in the world. This was helpful because we are busy people. His equipment was top notch, always sounded great and perfectly tuned for our location. On top of that, Greg's usual tactful and tasteful manner which he supports and manages your event leaves everyone with that Rosey wedding afterglow you can only hope for. Do want a chump DJ-ing your special day? I didn't think so. call Five Star for a professional, in every aspect.
GUEST




Booking 5 Star Events was one of the best wedding choices that my husband and I made! From the beginning, Greg was both personable and professional. My husband and I planned our Plymouth wedding from Virginia so it was often difficult to meet with all of our vendors when we were only in town for a short periods of time. Greg was always very flexible in his schedule and would always go out of his way to find time to sit and talk about our day with us. Not only was he flexible but he also recommended many other vendors that he knew would take care of us on our special day.
From the first meeting, we could tell that Greg was very passionate about his job. He spent about an hour on the phone with me to help me decide the best way to incorporate the father-daughter dance, which was a very important part of the night to me. It turned out PERFECTLY and became a moment that my father and I will cherish forever.
Our guests, young and old, are still raving about how much fun our reception was! As soon as the music started there were people dancing. There was never a point in the night when the dance floor wasn't packed! Greg also found a way to play all of the songs that were important to me and my husband and he kept the party going all night! I would recommend 5 Star Events to anyone who wants an experience that everyone will enjoy and remember forever! Thanks for everything Greg!
Sincerely,
Deborah and Brandon Migdal

Greg Hodges, at 5 Star Events, is the most talented DJ I have ever come across. My husband and I literally picked our wedding date based upon the availability of 3 components: the venue, the church, and most importantly....DJ GREG HODGES. Greg was the DJ at my sister's wedding, and he did such a fabulous job that we had to have him DJ our wedding. He exceeded all expectations we had for a perfect night of music. He allowed us to work with him and voice our preferences of music styles throughout the night. He also provided the music for our cocktail hour which was a hit- a total mix of laid back favorites every generation can appreciate. He knew when to play oldies but goodies, when to play slow songs, and when to turn it up a notch and play more recent hits...the entire night was orchestrated perfectly. I saw people dance all night long that hate to dance...he was that good!! Greg is also very professional, patient, and a joy to be around. He is by far the most talented DJ I have ever met and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants a fun wedding filled with happy guests and tons of dancing. We have calls and emails every day saying it was the best wedding they have ever attended. So thank you Greg!! ~Missy and Paul
GUEST




We had Dave Hodges as our wedding DJ. From the very beginning he was very understanding of our needs, very adaptable to our pace, and very good at making suggestions. At the day of the wedding, he played a great selection of songs based on the 30 that we have selected! It was amazing, everyone kept dancing and having a good time. He was flexible and had no problem adjusting to the changes in the flow of events. We would recommend Dave to anyone without a doubt.
Out of the vendors we worked with 5 Star Events was also the only one with an online client portal where you can choose songs, setup the event flow and details. It was very helpful.
GUEST




Greg was incredibly easy to work with from booking to the actual wedding. His online software is one of a kind and really make the music process stress-free, allowing you to add/subtract songs and make special notes for him to follow for the wedding day/reception. He can get you any song you want, whether or not it is already in his system. Our bridal party really kept him on his toes with their odd requests, and he did a great job! He is extremely professional and very nice - he let the party unfold without taking over the evening by MC'ing the whole night. We also gave Greg license to play music to keep the dance floor packed the whole night - which he was 100% successful at (and didn't play a single song on our "do not play" list - thank God!
Just a thought to consider, I would definitely recommend speaking over the phone if you have a difficult last name to pronounce just to make sure that everything is 100% - despite spelling my last name phonetically and him asking us very quickly as we were about to be announced, he pronounced our last name wrong (which really nobody noticed but us and can easily be rectified. Greg was extremely apologetic about this and I would not let this skew your decision to hire Greg.
All in all, Greg is an absolutely fantastic DJ and if you want someone who will play great music, keep everyone dancing on their feet the whole night, is extremely easy/flexible to work with and will not be talking on the mike all night (or at all), Greg is definitely the guy for you! Our wedding was 100% a success and Greg played a huge part in that. We have already recommended him to many of our friends and family and will continue to do so!
GUEST




Greg was absolutely an amazing DJ and made our wedding reception so much fun! Our dance floor was packed the entire night, and we actually had our guests begging for "just one more song" at the end of the evening. Greg was very flexible in terms of our music choices and was able to find some pretty unique songs that we requested. His online planning system was incredibly helpful, and made planning the music for our reception much easier. He was excellent to work with and extremely professional. I could not recommend him more highly!
GUEST




Dave was great - super organized, had good suggestions but wasn't overbearing. He was really flexible with requests at the wedding, and definitely wasn't the stereotypical 'in your face' wedding DJ! We're recommending 5Star to all of our friends for their special events.
GUEST




Greg was great, he was always on time to meetings and made my fiance and I feel very comfortable. We had some unique song choices and he found everything for us and was excited to play whatever we wanted. The website and song list were very helpful, I choose much of the music myself so it was fun to put it all in a playlist online. He was very professional and fun on the wedding day and he never stole the spotlight. Everyone danced and had a good time. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Over the years, I have worked many a wedding with Greg at Star Events, Greg always puts on a 5 Star performance! He is truly one of the best in the business and one heck of a great guy to boot!
Want a professional DJ that plays to the whole crowd and keeps the dance floor packed without being cheesy? Every time I've worked with 5 Star I've seen a consistently packed dance floor with all aged guests having a great time.
We have worked with Greg several times.. always professional and really keeps the party going!
I highly recommend 5 Star Events DJ! Greg Hodges is a joy to work with. His set up is the latest in technology, his personality can mesh with any group, and the music he plays will keep any crowd on the dance floor! Greg always goes "the extra mile", and I truly enjoy working with him.
Greg does an amazing job to make your event one to remember. His up lighting division is the BEST!
After shooting over 800 weddings throughout New England, New York, Florida, Lake Tahoe and beyond I've worked with the best known disc jockeys and bands in the business. I know first hand how your entertainment can make or ruin your entire wedding. That is why my number one recommendation for disc jockeys is and always has been Greg Hodges of 5 Star Events. Greg listens to his couples and always puts them first. He is able to read a crowd better than anyone, and knows how to keep the dance floor filled from start to finish. He is a master emcee who treats you and your guests with style and class. I consistently hear wedding guests saying they've never been to a better wedding, and I can't think of a better recommendation than that!
I was fortunate to meet Greg of 5 Star Events at a Wedding fair this year. He very much impressed me that day as we chatted about everything "wedding" and "music". A few months later, I was able to see his talents in action at a job we worked together. Not only did he provide great DJ services but lighting and decor that truly transformed the space.
Greg from 5 Star is the best DJ. I always know that if he is the DJ at a wedding I am filming I will get some great footage because the guests will have a wonderful time. He is extremely professional and does a fantastic job. I highly recommend Greg Hodges of 5 Star Events.
Greg Hodges knows how to DJ, plain and simple. No attitude; no flashy tricks; no big ego. Just the perfect music to get and keep your party going all night. Greg knows how to "read" a crowd - and adds expertise, experience and graciousness to his smooth and upbeat style.
Greg is a fantastic DJ! It will be obvious to anyone meeting with Greg that he truly cares about his clients and invests himself in their events. He is really a technical genius and a consummate professional. We give him our highest recommendation.
I refer all of my clients to Greg, he's highly professional, got a great personality and really knows his business. His website is impressive and most importantly (since I'm usually not there for the party), I've heard so many great reviews about his ability to set the appropriate tone and make the reception a blast! You can't go wrong!
5 Star Events will keep you dancing all night! Greg will read the crowd and keep the dance floor full all night.
One of the best DJs in the area. Always dependable, always on time, extremely friendly and talented and very cutting edge technology.
Whenever I receive a request for a DJ, Greg is the first one that comes to mind.

I have had the absolute pleasure to have had Greg Hodges and 5 Star Events provide the entertainment for my daughter's Sweet Sixteen Ball. From the special effect lighting to the music that just kept on grooving, what an amazing - sensational - event he put together. The dance floor stayed packed all night and the mood was palpable every time the room changed colors in tune with the beat. Greg knows the music inside and out - and he knows when to provide commentary and just when to let the party flow. I heard over and over how each song was a "must" dance to - and the DJ was "ill" (for those of you who aren't 16 anymore, that is the epitome of "cool").
Over the years my brides have told me how perfect Greg Hodges was as a DJ - and now I have the pleasure to say, "I Agree!".
With utmost urging, I highly reccommend 5 Star Events for your wedding or party.
I have had several brides who have used Gregs' services comment on how wonderful he was to work with! Greg is able to seamlessly transition from one situation to another and is skilled at making each event run smoothly. While he is extremely professional and talanted, he is also well known for his personality. Greg is not an "in your face" kind of guy, he is subtle and friendly- not pushy. The one thing that impressed me most about 5 Star Events DJ is that he offers a unique 100% guanantee. Any bride who is not completely satisfied will not be charged for Gregs' services. It takes a very confident professional to put themselves on the line with this sort of guarantee. I would recommend Greg and 5 Star Events DJ to everyone.
