Reviews for Beat 2 Beat DJs
GUEST




We had Dan from Beat 2 Beat DJs for our wedding. He was fantastic! Dan and Chris from B2B provided excellent service for our ceremony and reception. The ceremony music went off perfectly and we had so many complements on the fantastic cocktail and reception music. We enjoyed working with Dan leading up to the day and the big day itself. Dan and Chris were incredibly friendly, helpful, professional, and attentive to detail.

My main responsibilities as the groom at my wedding were to get to the wedding on time and to hire the DJ. I excelled at both! I arrived at my wedding a solid hour before I was suppose to and no one seemed to notice. Hmph! What everyone did notice was the presence of DJ Vega (He might still go by Chris). More specifically, everyone commented that DJ Vega was the best DJ that they have ever heard. Granted that half of the people who were at my wedding were family members at or above the age of 50, their prior exposure to DJs could not have been that extensive, and they are not aware who Wayne is, even if there is a little version of him. That being said, they were on the dance floor all night long. There is something magical about seeing your 70 something parents dancing the night away. Don't let the age of my parents fool you, my wife and I are in what people call the best part of our 20's, aka 30, and the rest of our wedding was made up of our friends. They too were dancing like it fools. I say fools since I don't know if that's really how they dance or if they were just having the best time of their lives. Either way, most of them came up to us to let us know, among other things, that DJ Vega is an amazing DJ.
I have never thrown a wedding before so I don't have too much to compare to but I could not imagine our wedding without DJ Vega. He was professional and most importantly a gentleman, which my wife keeps telling me are hard to find now-a-days. He has an amazing skill of blending and mixing songs so you don’t even know you are dancing to The Beibs until it’s too late. DJ Vega did a great job of being the central part of the night but not stealing the spotlight, meaning everyone noticed how great he was, but no one could tell you who he was as the focus was always on us.
So in summary, I win! for successfully choosing the best DJ.
Thanks DJ Vega, for being a rockstar!

If I could provide a higher rating, I most certainly would!! Beat 2 Beat DJs was an absolute pleasure to work with. Chris Riddle is extremely responsive and is in-tune to what you are looking for. He responded to my first voicemail that day and put me in touch with Brian Robey, who was available for our wedding. Brian IS EXCELLENT!!! Such a great person to work with. We initially spoke with him over the phone to meet him and see if it would be a good match- "good" did not do it justice! Brian has quite the experience with DJ'ing. We were able to meet with him in the studio. The set up and technology is great- not some cheezy DJ picking songs off of his ipod. We saw his ability to mix from "My Girl" to "Call Me Maybe" and not even realize we were still tapping our feet. Brian was so re-assuring and found the exact music we were looking for. He set the mood completely for our American Standards/Big Band cocktail hour, as well as dinner....and when the dancing started, he kept the party going!! He knew exactly what to play to keep everyone on the dance floor. It was such an amazing night, and I cannot sing enough praise for Brian. I highly recommend Beat 2 Beat if you want a wedding to remember!!
GUEST




Beat2Beat and our DJ Dan McGinty were fantastic!!! They eased our minds by being professional, always available to answer questions, and did a site visit as well. We are STILL getting complements on the music. It was a perfect selection for our crowd! Thanks for making our wedding one heck of a party!!
GUEST




Chris Riddle was very professional and personal during the planning and execution of his services for our daughters wedding. He kept the party going becoming the maestro of music selection and organization of details throughout the night. Thanks, R&D Walker-Baltimore
GUEST




We used Beat 2 Beat DJs for both DJ services and we booked a lighting package. Chris was great to work with on the business end of things. He was fast in his responses and provided great customer service.
DJ - We had Jon B. as our DJ. He came highly recommended by a friend of mine. He was great! He provided music for the ceremony, cocktail/dinner hour and the dancing. It was just what we wanted! He gave us a great mix of genres that we had provided and everyone told me what a great time they had! Our dance floor was packed the entire night! And I had made sure that we had one big enough to hold 150+ people!
Lighting - Dan M. was our lighting guy. We had booked an uplighting package and wasn't really sure where I wanted the lights to go. We just let Dan do his job and gave him our color scheme. When they dimmed the lights in the Ballroom at Grey Rock Mansion the room really popped and looked amazing!
We had intereviewed multiple DJs and it was the most important vendor for us because we have a lot of friends who like to dance. Not only was Beat 2 Beat the right match for us, but they were reasonable too! If I had to do it all over again, I'd choose them in a heartbeat!
GUEST




Dj5 did an AMAZING job deejaying our wedding! My husband and I were very pleased. From the beginning to the end of the reception, he had us partying and dancing all night long! He played the latest and hottest hip hop and r&b music and even threw in a couple of old school jamz!! My husband and I gave DJ 5 a list of songs that we liked and he took care of the rest. If you want to party, party, party...then Dj5 and Beat 2 Beat Djs are definitely worth booking!
GUEST




I just want to say that Beat2Beat and DJ 5 (Dan) are AMAZING. Our wedding was on 9/1/12 at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club and Dan was there early to set up. We had an entire room (the Garden Room) devoted to dancing and it was packed the entire night with people. I had so much fun that I wish I could keep them around for everything. I gave them some songs on a no-play list and a must-play list and left the rest to him and he really kept the party going all night long. He took requests from people and even came to us if he wasn't sure about a song. Our guests from out of town were mostly from MA and he played Sweet Caroline at the end of the night and I don't think they stopped talking about how epic it was for the rest of the weekend. He kept the dances to the perfect length, mixed the tracks super smoothly, and was honestly just such a great DJ.
They're super professional, so quick to respond, and you can tell they care about each of their clients! These guys aren't your typical wedding DJs -- they don't do all the cheesy stuff that you can't stand and that, for me, was awesome. Dan, thank you -- you killed it!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat Djs were amazing! Our Dj was so professional, and really kept us in the loop! Our guests danced the night away, listening to wonderful music. It provided such a great atmosphere for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier!
GUEST




I cannot say enough great things about Beat 2 Beat DJs!! Brain from Beat 2 Beat DJ'ed our wedding on June 30, 2012. My husband and I love to dance---so finding the right DJ was really important to us. We met with several DJs, but of all of them, Brian was the most attentive---and Beat 2 Beat was absolutely the best deal out there by far!
We decided to go with them and were not disappointed. We had very specific ideas about what we wanted to do for our introductions. We met with Brian twice to go over it all---he was really excited about our idea and willing to do whatever he needed (even practice beforehand!) to make it work. At the reception, he completely BLEW US AWAY! The introductions were perfect. People were up and dancing from the start---and I really think his intro set the tone for the rest of the reception. The dance floor was full all night and everyone told us what a great DJ had! We had a total blast!!
I would 100% recommend Beat 2 Beat DJs. They were amazing to work, answered every e-mail right away, met with us as much as we wanted, and their price was unbeatable. Book them for your wedding and you won't be sorry!!!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJ's is the way to go! Chris was absolutely fabulous at our wedding. From the start when we met in his studio to the wedding day, Chris has been professional, attentive and amazing. He answered any of my last minute questions, and came through with all of my requests. He did an amazing job of moving the night along, and kept true to my wish of staying low key. He got people out on the dance floor with his selection of songs, and introduced dances and speeches with the right level of fun and professionalism. I highly recommend Beat 2 Beat DJ's to anyone looking for a DJ that will work with them, and make their night a dream come true!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat was so much more than I expected out of a DJ! I knew from the beginning that I didn't have to worry! I called Chris Riddle three months before the wedding and asked him to do the music for the ceremony too. He assured me it wasn't a problem and had all the equipment. I know it was my wedding, and I'm probably partial, but it was one of the best weddings I've been to in terms of the amount of people on the dance floor! Chris knew exactly what music to play, how to play to the crowd, and really kept the party going! Beat 2 Beat is top notch and I would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a DJ. There isn't anything I wanted that I didn't receive.
GUEST




I cannot say enough good things about Beat 2 Beat DJs. We hired Dan McGinty (DJ5) for our June wedding in Baltimore. He was absolutely AMAZING! We gave Dan a handful of do-not-plays and handful must-plays, and the rest we left up to him (after providing a list of artists and the type of music we tend to like). He really nailed it - the music he chose to play was just perfect for every part of the evening. He's a pro at reading the crowd. At one point I got up from dinner and told him personally that he was doing a fantastic job - he made me so happy with the music he was playing. He really set the tone for the evening, and for that we are so grateful! It was all about the music (which was what we wanted) and when it was time for Dan to speak (wedding party introductions, for example) he nailed that too - major props to him for tackling some pretty hard-to-pronounce names - lol!
Of the DJ vendors we considered, Beat 2 Beat was by far the most responsive, professional, and thorough. Oh and the price was very reasonable too - added bonus! You will not go wrong with them. We are SO glad we chose them and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone!!!!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat allowed us to book them on relatively short notice, and our DJ, Dan McGinty, was absolutely great. We are both fairly picky about music, and gave him a pretty sizeable "must play / would be nice / do not play" list and he did a great job of sticking to it while still throwing in a few surprises. The musical flow of our reception was exactly what we were looking for, and Dan did everything we wanted and nothing we didn't. The dance floor was full all night long, and we got tons of compliments the next day. Really really great and can't recommend them highly enough.
GUEST




I can’t say enough about Jon and Beat 2 Beat DJs. We had an out-of-town wedding and I never got the chance to meet with them before the day of. They made the planning seamless and reassured me in the process. Before the reception, I was a little nervous about if Jon would be able to feel and react to the mood and preferences of our guests, but those nerves went out the window as soon as he got to work.
The dance floor didn’t get any rest. The younger guest had a blast, the older guest got their groove on and everyone in between had a great time as well. Go with Beat 2 Beat. You won’t be sorry.
Jon, thanks for making it a great day. All of our guests were raving about you. Chris, thanks to you as well. You made everything so easy.
GUEST




DJ Absolut (Brian) DJ'd our wedding and we couldnt have been more pleased.
They have a great process before you book them so you can meet and discuss your ideas for the music and get a demo.
Our guests were dancing all night long and said that the music was the...
GUEST




Dan was the DJ for our wedding reception. He kept everybody on the dance floor and played really great music. The up-lighting that Chris used to decorate our room was gorgeous. It really made a difference in our photos. I would highly recommend this company for DJ and up-lighting services.
GUEST




Dan was our DJ and he was AWESOME... He set the entire mood for our wedding and we had a blast! Everyone who attended my wedding keeps talking about it and how great it was and I know that those compliments should be directed to the DJ for keeping the party alive!
GUEST




Extremely professional and flexible to work with. Great suggestions! Worked with us on a play list that included some very obscure nusic for our dinner hour...but went the extra mile to find the music we wanted..My daughter and her husband wanted every one up and dancing and our DJ, Chris, made sure that happened! Chris was a lot of fun to work with.....his enthusiasm aboiut what he does made for a fun night!
GUEST




I HIGHLY recommend Beat 2 Beat DJs. Chris Riddle was our DJ this past Saturday and he did an incredible job at the reception. Not only did he confirm that he was pronouncing the bridal party's names correctly, before the entrance, but he also kept the dancing going ALL night long. Chris also happily responded to ALL of my emails about song requests (there were quite a few!) and kindly explained to a guest when a song they requested could not be played due to a request by my family.
Chris was incredibly easy to work with and did a fantastic job!
Thanks again!!
GUEST




I cannot recommend Beat 2 Beat DJs highly enough. Chris (the owner) and Dan (our DJ) were simply great from beginning to end. Chris would respond to emails very quickly, which I really appreciated. We met with Dan once last summer to discuss our general needs, and then communicated by email or phone. We had a very specific music plan for our ceremony, and it went off without a hitch. We also had parts of two songs for our first dance, and he also handled that perfectly. I was able to give Dan my playlist (which was very specific) and he played all of those songs and a few others that went great with my selections. I think Beat 2 Beat is a great company and I can't recommend them highly enough.
GUEST




I used Beat 2 Beat DJs for my April 2012 wedding and I couldn't be more pleased. Chris was great to work with and was always very friendly and professional. A month before the wedding, we provided him with a timeline of our day. He was a great emcee and kept everything transitioning smoothly. He played all the songs that we wanted to hear and kept the dance floor going.I highly recommend using Beat 2 Beat DJs for your wedding.
GUEST




It is evident that the DJ's at Beat 2 Beat are passionate about their work. They went above and beyond in exceeding our expectations. It was a pleasure to work with a company that is committed to professionalism, flexibility and responsiveness to their clients.
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat was exceptional from beginning to end. Very professional and easy to work with. Would definitely reccommend them!
GUEST




We had the opportunity to work with Brian from Beat 2 Beat for our wedding reception, and how lucky we were. The music that Brian played throughout the evening was absolutely amazing and perfect, and as a result, our party was that much more phenomenal. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. From our initial meeting with Beat 2 Beat, to the minor coordination via phone and email, to our actual reception, the professionalism and expertise that Beat 2 Beat, specifically Brian, demonstrated was amazing. For us, the DJ / music at our reception was top priority – we wanted a “party,” and Brian gave us exactly that and so much more. The dance floor was NEVER empty, and the great time and awesome atmosphere already present was only exaggerated by Brian’s remarkable talent to read a crowd and know exactly what’s needed to keep the momentum going. To any couple who is on the search for a great DJ company, and who likes a great party and dancing like crazy, look no further than Beat 2 Beat.
GUEST




Thank you Dan and Chris for working with us in making our day a huge success and a lot of fun!
GUEST




My wedding planner Melody Browning from MeZo Events recommended Beat 2 Beat DJs and I'm glad I took her advice. DJ Five (Dan McGinty) was the DJ for my wedding and he did a great job. He kept the dance floor packed and checked in with me and the groom at several points throughout the night to make sure we were happy with everything. He did a nice job of announcing things (toasts, cake cutting, etc.) without every being cheesy or intrusive. He kept everything in line with our taste and everyone had a great time dancing.
GUEST




This review is for DJ Absolut (Brian). We had him do the music for the cocktail hour and reception. We were extremely happy with everything. Brian was super easy to work with, finding our particular music selections for the entrance and first dance with no problems. Everything was seamless.
Now, by the time dinner ended, the remaining crowd at the wedding was of a younger generation. I had already set out the "definitely play" and "do not play" songs with him, which were strictly adhered to. I still get compliments to this day (almost 6 months later) about how awesome our DJ was. One of my friends even had me get the whole playlist because she loved everything he put on. He read the crowd perfectly and kept the party going until we were forced to stop due to the noise ordinance. Awesome.
GUEST




beat2beat djs were amazing!!!!
ladies...think about it. the DJ is the narrator of your whole reception! they set the tone for everything...you want to hire someone who knows what they're doing. i have been to weddings with awful DJs but chris and dan are worth every penny.
they are so easy to communicate with...and met with us multiple times! the day of the wedding, dan was awesome!! everyone was out on the dance floor...in fact...i think i spent TOO much time on the dance floor :) use them, you won't regret it!
GUEST




Our ceremony and reception were held in Frederick, MD; thus we wanted to find a Dj near the venue to cut down on travel time. Unfortunately, we were not able to find a "real" Dj near our venue. We met with vendors that claimed to be a Dj, but only played music from a laptop without accompanying Dj equipment.
We decided to search for a Dj that had his/her hand on the pulse of new music and popular songs that guests would love to hear. I came across Beat 2 Beat Djs and knew this would be the company to work with. After meeting with Chris and Jon Boesche', my fiance and I were impressed with the beat mix skills and charisma displayed by both Djs.
On the day of the wedding, Jon and Chris provided uplighting, an LED Dj booth, and AWESOME music. Everyone at the wedding was impressed and danced all evening. Jon was an excellent Dj and announcer; he truly has a voice and personality that is meant to be on the radio.
Chris was very flexible with the music we suggested and was even flexible in receiving our music at the last minute. As stressful as planning a wedding can be, Chris and Jon made this a very easy and stress-free event for us. Overall, we will highly recommend Beat 2 Beat Dj's!
GUEST




I would highly recommend Beats 2 Beats. Chris went above and beyond in providing services, including contacting an artist to obtain their two versions of a specific song for the mother son dance. Chris is extremely responsive to emails and all requests for information. They accept credit cards over Pay Pal, which is extremely convenient when budgeting a wedding. They were set up for the reception early, so as to not interfere with our guests going to the cocktail hour. DJ Jon was fabulous and is truely a skilled artist. He set the mood for the party and had the dance floor rocking the entire night, so much so that the air conditioning had to be dropped 12 degrees in the room and it was still hot. The Baltimore region is lucky to have Chris and Jon in the business. They made us feel like they were so proud to be part of our special day and we were equally lucky to have them. They provided stress free and professional services. As a true testament to their services, we have already referred a good friend getting married next year.
GUEST




I booked DJ Special K for a wedding event and he was fabulous! He worked with me every step of the way and accommodated my very eclectic musical tastes amazingly well! He is creative, energetic, friendly, fun and very passionate about music. He really reads guests' tastes and moods well, and adjusts music accordingly to ensure that everyone is having a great time. He is also very professional. His punctuality is impeccable, and he worked well with the rest of the venue staff. He dressed very professionally and appropriately, and ensured that everything ran smoothly-which took all of the stress off of me. I would absolutely recommend hiring Beat 2 Beat DJs for any event. Truly worth every penny! Professional, knowledgeable, fun and flexible.

You can't go wrong with beat 2 beat DJs. Chris was my DJ for my June wedding, and he was EXCELLENT. Professional, articulate, friendly, and organized are just a few words to describe him. He was always very fast with his email responses. I have recommended Beat 2 Beat to many friends who are getting married. Thank you Chris for making my wedding so much fun! ~Steph
GUEST




This company is great! They were very professional, responsive, and just generally nice people to work with. We had almost all of our guests on the dance floor all night!
GUEST




We booked B2B for our wedding on 6/18/2011. Dan our DJ was awesome and did a great job with everything. Everyone commented on how great the music was and he was awesome at making everything go off without a hitch and not needing anything from us. Thanks Dan for being such an important part of our night and making everything wonderful!
GUEST




We booked Beat 2 Beat DJs for our wedding on June 11, 2011- Brian was our DJ. From our first meeting with Beat 2 Beat they blew us away. Not only were they completely professional and responsive throughout the entire process, they were fresh too. Fresh meaning that they are not like the typical DJs that have been playing the same old song list for the past 50 years. They are fresh, upbeat, and extremely talented.
We had a few special requests for our reception and they were very accomodating. My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Brian- even the guests commented on how great it was! He kept everyone on the dance floor until the very end of the night.
We definitely recommend Beat 2 Beat!!!!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJs is awesome!!! They are so professional and fun guys to work with. Chris, the owner, is very quick when answering emails. Dan, DJ 5, worked our wedding. He did an awesome job. He played all of the music we wanted and nothing we didn't, even if it was a request from the crowd. He really kept the whole wedding moving and on time. We met with Dan before the wedding and went over a timeline. They are reasonably priced for all that you get. I would highly recommend Beat 2 Beat DJs!
GUEST




My wife and I got married on 5/27/2011. We had Chris(Beat 2 Beat DJs) DJ our wedding. There is only one word to describe the job he did...AMAZING!!! Not only did he keep the dance floor full the entire night, but he was very professional. A few days before the wedding, he called me and my wife to ask our permission to use a new piece of equipment. I'm glad he did. The new lights he had just added to the awesome atmosphere at our reception. He is very dedicated to his work and knows how to read a crowd. His music flowed seamlessly all night, and the dance floor never stopped rocking. Also, if you want certain songs played, let him know. He'll play them, if he doesn't have them, he'll do his best to get them. If you're looking for a DJ for your wedding, I strongly recommend Beat 2 Beat. Whether it's Chris or one of his fellow DJs, they will do an AMAZING job.
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJs was recommended by one of our friends that recently got married. They made everything so easy and seamless for our May 2011 wedding. DJ Dan McGinty was extremely professional and on top of everything. He made the night progress effortlessly and comfortably. A great DJ can make or break the mood of an event. Everyone had a wonderful time and the dancefloor was packed the entire night...even people that never dance were jamming. He even asked me permission when a guest when a questionable song request. I highly recommend Beat 2 Beaet DJs and Dan McGinty.
GUEST




Excellent, excellent job! Dan McGinty - DJ5 of Beat 2 Beat made everything flow so smoothly and was a critical part of our entire wedding. The music was spot on for each moment and felt effortless. Had many compliments from our musically inclined friends. We gave him a framework and he ran with it. Professionalism is a piece of mind on a day with so many moving parts. Thank you Dan!
GUEST




Chris Riddle, DJ Vega, was the DJ for our wedding reception. He was very professional and diligent so that everything went according to schedule. All of our guests were dancing throughout our reception and he listened to our input of songs and ideas for our reception. From the initial meeting up to the week before the wedding, Chris was very responsive and helped us with all of our questions including great suggestions to make things run smoother. We would definitely recommend Beat 2 Beat for your occasion!
GUEST




Brian, with Beat 2 Beat, did a wonderful job at our wedding. He was extremely professional and played a great variety of songs. These guys are a sure bet. No need to look any further.
-Bill & Katie
GUEST




Beat2BeatDJs did an amazing job at our wedding! Brian (DJ Absolut) played just the right songs to keep the dance floor packed all night. Everyone had such great time which is something that meant a lot to me & my husband. I even got compliments from guests saying how much they loved that Brian would flow from song to song with out an awkward pause between.
I recommend Beat2Beat DJs 100%!
GUEST




We were extremely happy when we found out that Beat 2 Beat DJs had our wedding date available. Dan McGinty was fantastic! I sent him the list of songs we definitely wanted to be played along with a "do not play" list, and he made it flow perfectly throughout our reception. All of the guests had a fabulous time and commented on how great our DJ was. Dan was professional and wonderful to work with. He and Chris Riddle (owner) were very quick with email and phone responses. They were also able to help with the planning for the order of events for the night.
GUEST




We used Beat 2 Beat for our wedding in October. Not only did Chris provide get service and exuded professionalism, he also mixed our fauther/daughter song ahead of time for us to practice! He was always very responsive and had competitive rates in the area. We would highly recommend Chris Riddle at Beat 2 Beat!
GUEST




We just got married in Oct, and were very happy with Beat 2 Beat DJs from start to finish. We didn't really shop around too much because it was clear from the start that they were top notch. Chris was very responsive throughout the process...and even at the initial meeting, we were able to meet our DJ - Brian (DJ Absolut). Brian did an amazing job at the reception...he was friendly and not overbearing, he did a great job with the announcements, and, most importantly, he kept the music/party going throughout the night. We had several people comment on how much they liked the music and the DJ...and it was a relief for both of us to know that we were in good hands. We would recommend Beat 2 Beat DJ's to anyone.
GUEST




Brian of Beat 2 Beat provided us with the best DJ experience at a wedding ever! He had everyone dancing from the moment dinner ended to the very last song. He kept a great pace and many guests commented what a really great DJ we had! He played music for everyone and rounded out the night with dance hits. He mixed in the songs we wanted with classics and current hits and it was perfect. Amazing... if Beat 2 Beat to DJs your wedding, you won't regret it!
GUEST




Dan was amazing! We recently got married in Rehoboth Beach, DE and Beat 2 Beat made our day! First consultation was laid back, comfortable and informative, after that response, communication were amazing. At the wedding Dan kept things moving along, listened to what we wanted and followed through. Use this company if you want to add to your day!
GUEST




Chris at Beat2Beat is the man. He is an extremely likeable guy who is just flat out a natural at his job.
Beat2Beat treats you like you should be treated. Upon initial contact, they requested a meeting at their office to give us the entire experience. We were treated professionally, which was extremely nice. Chris is a younger guy who is definitely into the latest music. A requirement for our DJ was that he had to be near our age and have good taste in music. We both instantly related to Chris.
Chris is really a professional DJ and can beatmatch with the best of them. All of our friends made comments like "The music just kept going the whole time!" and "I couldn't even hear when he switched songs!". This is really what you pay for in a professional DJ. My wife and I have been to many weddings and nobody compares.
Since our wedding last September, we have had the pleasure of attending a few Beat2Beat weddings with Dan. Dan is also a great beatmatcher and a great guy.
One little added bonus, Chris's wife's company, Up Dos for I Dos, came and did on-site hair and makeup for the bride and bridesmaids. They were just as phenomenal as Beat2Beat.
We easily received as many compliments on our DJ as we did on the wedding itself. We have friends who cancelled their DJ and lost their deposit just to get Beat2Beat at their wedding.
If you're reading this and deciding on a DJ, read no more. Hire Beat2Beat!
GUEST




I can't thank Beat 2 Beat dj's for there performance for our wedding. You did a great job. I even saw you helping the wedding planner move chairs into the reception tent during the cocktail hour. You went out of your way to meet our expectations. Many thanks!
GUEST




Chris was the DJ for our wedding on 9/12 and was absolutely phenomenal! From our initial consultation with him, we knew we had to have Chris as our DJ! He is so kind, professional, responds very timely, and extremely talented at what he does! So many friends and family from the wedding raved about how amazing he was besides my husband and I raving about him as well! We all stayed on the dance floor the whole night and really were able to have such a wonderful time because of how awesome the music was. Thank you so much Chris!!!!!!!!!!
GUEST




Chris Riddle recently DJ'ed our wedding and he did a phenominal job!!!!! He was professional, responsive, organized, super easy to work with and - - is extremely talented. Chris is experienced, knows what works best, made the planning really easy for us, and I would highly recommend B2B to anyone. Guests have been contacting us ever since the wedding to tell us how much fun they had an how awesome the music was - thanks again Chris!!!!
GUEST




Beat to Beat DJs was one of the best & easiest parts of our wedding. Working with Chris and Dan was easy and fun. They were very quick to respond and were willing to make anything happen for us. Dan was professional and kept the party going. He was not the cheesy wedding DJ at all. When he said over the mike, "It's time for the bride and groom to leave," I was SOO sad!! I've had sooo many people come up after the wedding and say, "That was the most fun I've ever had at a wedding" or "You guys threw one heck of a party." I got so many compliments on the DJ it was unreal. It was truly the best day of our lives and the best party I've ever thrown. People have asked us if we're going to have an anniversary party and invite that Dj! Thank you Beat to Beat DJs for all of your hard work and for helping to make our day so special! We will be using you again!! :) Thank you!
GUEST




My fiance, Jeff, and I must've filtered through a dozen cheesy, cummerbund-wearing DJs when we finally discovered Beat2Beat DJs (on WeddingWire, actually). It was a wearisome search. One pushy DJ company owner, who shall remain nameless, even badgered me a bit w a couple call backs, trying to get me to sign w him WITHOUT meeting the DJ first. That way, he audaciously explained, he could decide closer to our date if he wanted to work our event himself or assign us to one of his employees. No thanks.
I could just tell by the Beat2Beat name/website that it was a more modern DJ team which was a better fit for us. Owner Chris Riddle was very friendly and prompt in email and on the phone. He insisted the opposite of that other guy - Chris wanted us to come to his studio and meet him personally before we signed anything. (We wound up having the privilege of getting Chris as our personal DJ.)
Jeff and I did and, on first impression, were blown away. Chris is incredibly professional and respectful. He's cool, very chill, but he takes your business seriously. He got to know us a bit, then showed us his equipment and a little demo of what he could do w songs we liked. He made it clear he'd honor the lists of any songs we possibly wanted for cocktail hour, dance etc. as well as any Do Not Plays (we had several). His package prices were reasonable, as well. The only other 'modern' company we found were way over budget for us.
We signed with him the next morning (he likes you to think about it for a night) and felt 100% like we'd found the right guy for us. Again, Chris & his team are young but sharp, modern, very aware of what's current.. they're just a more hip DJ group then all the other typical companies out there.
On our actual day, Chris didn't miss a trick. He announced/intro'd everyone well, played all the right songs - I'm telling you, he plays exactly what you request, song for song - and was present but not overpresent. He doesn't try to take the spotlight or make it about him, he dials his working-the-crowd quotient to whatever you'd like it to be.
He also did a great job of checking in w us about when we'd like to do the cake or the bouquet toss, etc., but he also let the night flow at a natural pace.
I honestly cannot rave enough about Beat2Beat DJs. They will play any kind of wedding, I'm sure - country, hip hop, etc. - but if you're like us.. if you're a fun, young, modern couple who wants danceable pop/hip-hop that's not from five years ago and you want a fun, current, knows-what's-up DJ, I mean it when I say Beat2Beat is the only one of its kind I found in the area. This is not an exaggeration. Save yourselves the search I dealt with. :) *****

Dan and Beat 2 Beat did a great job working with my husband and I! We had some different requests and they were very flexible and accommodating! They really worked with our personalities and we had a fantastic ceremony and reception. THANK YOU!
GUEST




We absolutely LOVED Beat 2 Beat DJs! We worked with Brian (DJ Absolut) and would recommend him to anyone! We were really impressed with the level of customer service Beat 2 Beat has - from the initial consultation to the follow-up email after our wedding, we couldn't be happier. I had been to a few weddings where the DJ was not so great, and had forgotten how critical a good DJ is to a reception! Brian was super easy to work with, and even went out of his way to find some not-so-mainstream songs my husband really wanted for the cocktail hour. He did the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, and did a fantastic job!
GUEST




Chris is wonderful, he is so easy to work with and will let you have as much or as little say about the music if you want. His website was a great resource for picking out songs. He is so polite and really made everyone feel at home on the day of. He does a great job of making sure he says everyone's names correctly, and is great at feeling out the crowd and keeping the dance floor full! He is great on the mic and is never cheesey. All of our guests commented how great the music was. My wedding was the thrid wedding I have seen him DJ and he always does a great job!
GUEST




Chris, Chris, Chris......professional, friendly, easy to work with, and an extremely talented DJ. The dance floor was packed the entire time, and the reception went on until midnight. Everyone had a ball. Our minister's wife even said she hadn't danced so much since her 20's. I highly recommend.
GUEST




Dan with Beat 2 Beat DJs is awesome! I met with Chris for my first consultation and he introduced me to Dan, who was my actual DJ. They are professional and well organized. Dan was absolutely amazing at the wedding. He kept the timeline straight and I gave him the freedom to decided when things should happen so he took control (which is what I wanted!). He kept people of all ages on the dance floor all night. He was loved so much that one of our guests wants to book him for their daughter's wedding next summer! Thanks so much for making our wedding so special.
GUEST




We loved having Dan at Beat2Beat DJs do our wedding! We only met with one DJ company and we knew right away we would use them. Chris has a very straightforward manner and meeting with him was very easy. I felt like this was one of our easiest vendors to decide on and work with.
The day of, Dan showed up super early for set up for our wedding, which was great! I think he was there before I was. He did a great job keeping everyone dancing and played a great mix of new songs and some old stuff we requested. He definitely "got" the mood of the party and played music accordingly. My only wish is that we could have kept the party going for 2 more hours! :)
GUEST




As mother of the bride and official "Wedding Planner" I could not have asked for a more professional and accommodating DJ company for my daughter's wedding. They were very timely in responding to all of our requests during the planning process and went beyond their responsibilities by purchasing the obscure "Father / Daughter" dance song that my husband had picked out. Brian was engaging and kept things on schedule during the reception. The guests had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend using Beat2Beat DJs for your wedding! Sue Vogel
GUEST




The DJs at Beat 2 Beat were great! We planned our wedding from out of town and our DJ Brian worked with us over the phone to coordinate our song list and reception agenda. He was very professional and played great songs to keep the dance floor full all night. I would recommend Brian and the Beat 2 Beat DJs to anyone looking for a profressional, courtesy, prepared DJ!
GUEST




We loved working with Beat 2 Beat for our wedding reception! Choosing a DJ was very important to my husband and me because we wanted to set a fun environment for our guests. We only went to Beat 2 Beat and as soon as we left our initial meeting my now husband and I wanted them to DJ our wedding. We were lucky enough to have Chris Riddle. He was extremely professional and prior to the wedding asked for specifics that we wanted for our wedding. I provided him with a list of songs that we wanted played, so we did not want played, artists we liked and most importantly that we wanted to DANCE! So many of our guests came up to us at the wedding (and after) to say how much they loved the music. There were also a lot of people who said that they had not danced that much in years. We would highly recommend Beat 2 Beat for a wedding or even for another kind of event!
GUEST




Hands down our best vendor!!!
Chris did an outstanding job. The music was perfect and he had everyone up and dancing. He was so easy to work with and the quality and professionalism were perfect. We even emailed him the night before to change the bridal party entrance song and it was no problem. Couldn’t have asked for a better dj for our wedding!
GUEST




By far one of the best experiences I have had! Beat 2 Beat not only provided fantastic music for my wedding but he was great at researching the music I wanted. Very professional and proficient! I would suggest Beat 2 Beat and recommend them to anyone who is looking for a DJ!!!
GUEST




Awesome--go with B2B and you won't be disappointed. Our reception was SO fun--people are still talking about how great the music was.
GUEST




Dan was a fantastic DJ and the company was a pleasure to work with. He made our night so much more memorable. We would recommend him and the company to anyone.
GUEST




Our dj, Chris, was fantastic. Our guests loved the selection and variety of music. We were very satisfied with the professionalism and quality of his services. The lights really added the wow factor. We would recommend this company to any of our friends or family. Chris made our day feel special, lovely, and fun. Exactly what I wanted.
GUEST




Beat2Beat were great, from the initial in-studio consultation to the closing minutes of the reception. Our DJ was polite, professional, and honored all of our requests. They were one of only 2 vendors we had no problems with. We both would highly recommend them.
GUEST




Chris Riddle from Beat2Beat ROCKS!!!!!! I have received SOO many compliments from my wedding guests about how wonderful he was at keeping the party going and mixing music flawlessly! And i loved him too!!!! One thing about Chris that i was super impressed with was our pre-wedding planning. He has an amazing system for organizing every detail of your MC-ing needs. I actually complied a list of songs that were very important for him to play, and he did a fantastic job fulfilling my requests. And his mixing capabilities are off the chart - he is a master of his trade, and has top-of-the-line equipment to provide the best sound possible. One thing i was truly amazed by was his ability to pronounce every single person's name correctly!!! All 16 people! Chris met with us in his studio before our wedding to give us an example of how he mixes and what his equipment consists of...i VERY impressed as was my hubby! He is extremely outgoing and personable, and HUGE perk to have at our wedding! We loved Beat2Beat!!!
GUEST




If you want everyone out of their chairs dancing or having a great time---then Beat2Beat DJs is the way to go. They are also very professional and easy to work with and can REALLY see the vision you are trying to create. No waiting around to get a response to a question--they always got back to me in a timely manner and made our wedding reception fun and flawless!! I would definitely recommend Beat2Beat DJs!
GUEST




Chris did such an awesome job!! He is the best in the business if you ask for my opinion. His company comes HIGHLY recommended!
GUEST




Chris Riddle from Beat 2 Beat DJ's was amzing to say the least. He was a pleasure to work with and and was so helpful when deciding what music to play and when to play it. He even went so far as to re-arrange the mother/son dance so it was just perfect!
Chris was fun, professional and very reasonably priced. He even stayed for an extra hour when we decided to extend our reception at the last minute!
Thanks so much for making our wedding reception a BLAST and getting everyone on the dance floor!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJs are AWESOME!! The owner Chris is great! He listened to all of my requests and made everything very easy. He was quick to respond to e-mails and phone calls. Everything turned out great! At the reception he took charge and let everyone know when they would be speaking and when we would be doing each thing. I would 100% recommend him to anyone I knew that was looking for a DJ! Thank you Chris, for helping to make my day wonderful!!
GUEST




Chris from Beat 2 Beat DJs made our wedding night the best night of our life - no joke. All of our friends have not stopped raving about what an awesome job he did. In fact, everybody was having such a killer time that we extended the reception an hour! Chris did his thing for that last hour and I'm pretty sure that nobody was sitting down. He did an amazing job of guiding us in the right direction during the music selection process and an even better job of mixing in crowd pleasers that weren't on our list. The whole last hour, which made the night what it was, was Chris just doing his thing. From other DJ's to musicians to people who just like having a good time, everybody who was at our wedding thanked what was even called 'the wedding of the century' to Beat 2 Beat DJs.
GUEST




Chris was amazing - very responsive, professional, and easy to work with. We got exactly what we wanted from our DJ and wouldn't have changed a thing!!! This is the DJ that you want for your wedding - and I say that with complete confidence that you will enjoy him as much as we (and our guests) did!!
GUEST




Chris Riddle is amazing! We interviewed a few (less expensive) d.j.'s for our wedding. When I met with Chris, we were very impressed with his willingness to work with us and easy going personality. We chose him immediately after he demonstrated some of his "beat 2 beat" skills.
After our wedding, I was extremely happy with choosing Beat 2 Beat DJs! Chris's talent far exceeded what we hoped for. He felt the audience and played music to keep everyone out on the dance floor. People were coming up to me days/weeks after our wedding talking about how much fun they had. I believe a huge part of our successful wedding was because of Chris's talent.
I will also add, we had some last minute changes to make (I mean very last minute) and he was so cool about it and very accommodating. I'd give B2B a 10 if I could. You CAN NOT go wrong with BEAT 2 BEAT DJ! They were PERFECT!!!
GUEST




Chris our DJ from Beat 2 Beat Dj was speachless. Everything that I could have asked for it was done. The dance floor never stopped moving. I would 100% recommend him to anyone. Loved it :)
GUEST




Beat2Beat DJs are great! Whenever I needed to speak to a represenative, I spoke to someone directly, not a anwering service. This company gives you 200%. Beat2Beat are very professional, gives you GREAT advice when you are at cross roads when planning an event, and last but not least I will hire them again for any event from a special birthday party to a 10 year wedding anniversity party!!!!
GUEST




Chris Riddle at Beat 2 Beat is one of the most helpful and responsive wedding vendors I worked with. It was a pleasure to have him at our wedding. He worked closely with our caterer throughout the reception to coordinate the special events, make announcements and play great music.
We gave him an extensive list of music, but I have to say, he picked the best mix and added a few excellent mash-ups as well as his own picks to keep the party going.
We also had him wire a remote speaker to the first floor for our wedding ceremony and he played the music exactly as we wanted it played, added a great value to his services (and saving us the cost of live musicians).
Chris is extremely professional and very in tune with the latest music in all genres. If you're worried about choosing a DJ, know that Beat 2 Beat is the perfect choice--I promise you'll be very pleased with the service, the music and their ability to MC.
GUEST




My Husband and I really enjoyed working with these DJs. Beat 2 Beat are amazing. They were able to track down our requests and keep the party going. They were also very hands on and the talent was amazing. They could take a line dance and turn it into a fast paced dance song before the other song ended. It was an amazing night and everyone at the wedding said how great the DJ was. He was able to take requests and change the music to fit the mood at each moment. I would suggest Beat 2 Beat to any bride.
GUEST




Chris (Best 2 Beat DJs) was great from our first meeting all the way through the end of our wedding. He answered all our questions the moment we asked and was very on top of things for us. He made sure that our reception went smoothly and made it a great night. It was very fluent and had the reception going from the introductions to the last dance and we could have not been happier in using Chris's service. I would def recommend him to anyone looking for his type of work and will surely use him in the future. Thanks again Chris for helping our night be so amazing.
GUEST




Our first meeting with Brian and Chris was awesome. We really enjoyed what they had to offer and the music the mixed was AWESOME! I was the first one to get married in my family so everything was very confusing to me/us. I wish I had focused more time on the music, because the music that was played at our wedding was more of the "wedding" music and I liked the club mixing music. But that was more our fault for not going through the given list and picking the music we liked. Overall, Beat2Beat is an excellent vendor. My guests had a blast on the dance floor!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat Djs was absolutely great. They were professional,well organized, and easy to work with. They were open to any suggestions of songs we wanted played throughout the reception. They are a group that listens to what the bride and groom want and they excel at what they do. I was very impressed with their promptness on answering any questions I had over email. One of the repetitive compliments we received was how great and fun the DJ was. I would definitely recommend them to anyone getting married or just throwing a fabulous party.
GUEST




My wife and I are so happy we chose Beat 2 Beat; they kept the reception really professional and fun! Beat 2 Beat provided a fantastic service at a very competitive rate and no one should hesitate to use them.
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJs made our reception the best party we've ever been too. Their professionalism was exceptional and they worked w/ us throughout the entire planning stages to make the music at our reception a reflection of who we are and what we wanted to party to. Their responsiveness was better than any other vendor we worked with and the value of their service is highly recommended. Overall, it was a pleasure to work w/ Chris and Dan and there is no doubt in my mind that my next event will be DJ'd by Beat 2 Beat.
GUEST




If your in need of a dj look no further than Beat 2 Beat DJ's! Chris dj'd at our New Years Eve wedding and it was a blast! From the first day my wife and I met with him until our wedding day he was there for us. He took the time answer all of our questions, give us great advice and was very easy to get a hold of.
GUEST




Beat to Beat exceeded all our expectations. They were well organized, gave helpful suggestions, and made sure all our guests had top-notch entertainment. I would not hesitiate to recommend them to anyone wanting high quality, professional, dj services.

Beat2Beat did a wonderful job for our wedding reception. We met with Chris, the owner, about 2 months prior to the wedding and we discussed the type of music and event we wanted to have. He did a great job of getting everyone on the dance floor and we all had a great time. They have a great web site with lots of helpful planning information!
GUEST




Beat 2 Beat DJs provided my wife and I amazing service. From working with us prior to the wedding, helping with our song selections and atmosphere, to outstanding professionalism on the "Big Day", Beat 2 Beat DJs were amazing! The time and dedication that they spent with my wife and I made the entire process go so smoothly. It was such a relief to know that we could leave the music and entertainment up to the professionals and not have to worry about something going wrong on our wedding day. The value of their service is unbeatable. I highly recommend Beat 2 Beat DJs for anyone's wedding!
GUEST




Chris was a great DJ and I have recommended him to friends for their events as well!!!

Loved Beat2Beat DJs so much that we used them again for my sister's wedding. I plan on using them in the future for any and all events. Fantastic service and played exactly what I wanted. Five stars all the way!

Chris was phenomenal at keeping the dance floor hopping and knowing just what to play and when to play it. In addition, he was so professional and incredibly well spoken with all of the announcements and requests. I would highly recommend him to anyone for any event! He was outstanding and an absolute pleasure to work with!!
Whether you are looking for soft dinner music or popular party music the DJ's from Beat 2 Beat will bring it all for your event. We've done several events with Beat 2 Beat DJ's and they always come prepared and are wonderful to work with. They will work with the bride to determine the best musical fit for your event.
Chris Riddle is the man. His mixing techniques and professional presence at your reception are simply second to none. I highly recommend Chris and have had the pleasure of working with other DJ's at Beat 2 Beat; all my experiences with all of the staff have been absolutely great. Beat 2 Beat is a stellar entertainment company.
Wow! Chris is an AMAZING DJ! He really knows how to keep the dance floor hopping all night long and has a great time doing it! It is very apparent that he LOVES his job and will work hard to make your wedding day a memorable experience!
Having witnessed Chris working on a number of occasions I can report that he is professional to the max. Always prepared, his clients do's, don't's, likes, and dislikes at the ready. What is most apparent though is his connection with his clients, they are clearly on the same page about what's happening that evening. He is a total pleasure to work with.
Working with Chris is always a pleasure. He knows how to really read a crowd and make a wedding come to life! If you are thinking of a DJ service, this is one to look into for sure!
Yay! We love Beat 2 Beat DJs! It's great to have fresh entertainment that will keep the dance floor going all night long!!! Highly Recommend!

Our DJs are very talented and have spent many years honing their skills. We live and breathe music, and this passion for our trade can be witnessed at each of our performances. We understand the technical structure of music (posts/beats per minute), allowing us to blend songs together so that there is no noticeable dead air during song transitions. This style is known as “beat-mixing.” All of our DJs possess the talent to beat-mix, a special skill that is only truly mastered after years of practice. In fact, beat-mixing actually led to how we developed our company name, Beat 2 Beat DJs. While some of our competitors offer beat-mixing DJs as an optional upgrade, beat-mixing is a mainstay here at B2B. After all, a DJ who simply loads a playlist and presses play does not meet our definition of a true DJ! Allow us to take your next event “Beat 2 Beat.” You’ll be able to hear the difference!
