    Arrived on time, very professional during pre-meetings and at event. All music went off without a hitch including multiple location changes. Great editing of all important dance songs. Would highly recommend DJ Harvey!

    Maryland's DJ was absolutely one of the highlights of my wedding. Before the wedding, they were easy to book, extremely responsive, and easy to work with. On the actual day of the wedding, they helped create the exact right atmosphere my wife and I were looking for. The dance floor was full the entire time, and everyone said it was the most they had ever danced at a wedding. I could not recommend Maryland's DJ enough!!!!

    Highly recommend maryland's dj!

    Maryland's DJ was fantastic from start to finish. They were extremely fast in responding to my request, beat everyone by at least 30 minutes! Their presentation of who they are and what they do well, and what separates them from other DJ's was clean and crisp. Steve was a fantastic DJ. We used him for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We got tons of compliments about the music he was playing and how he was able to keep everyone on the dance floor. I'd highly recommend using Maryland's DJ!!

    Maryland’s DJ was the absolute best! They were extremely responsive, personable, and easy to work with. Taylor was extremely on top of things and very responsive. Brian our DJ truly listened and made our party flow and really banged out some tunes! Exactly what we had wanted! He kept our reception moving after getting behind due to a transportation issue which delayed the wedding. He was able to readjust and make sure the essentials happened, and happened well! It was the best dance party! Our only regret was that we didn’t get to experience it longer due to the timeline delay! But thank you Brian and Maryland’s DJ for helping make our wedding extremely memorable and the most special day! We would definitely recommend you!

    Jordan was fantastic! Everything went so smoothly and he didn't miss a beat! He was so helpful throughout everything. Amazing job!

    Maryland's DJ was a joy to work with. Jordan and Steve were helpful from the very beginning to the week of the wedding and then our DJ, Jesse Baker, was a blast!!! He did an incredible job with our ceremony, cocktail hour, and DANCE PARTY!

    Jordan did an amazing job of personalizing the entire wedding experience for us! He took the time to go through songs that were a must play, play if we had time or the vibe was right, and songs that were absolutely do not play! He even helped us pick some of those harder to think of songs like Mother/Groom Father/Daughter, etc. Highly recommend!

    Maryland’s DJ was fantastic! They were able to act on the fly when our timelines had to be pushed around. And the music was great. We had guests requesting the playlist all night.

    The Best of The Best

    I’ve been two 3 weddings done by Maryland’s DJ and each one including my own have been absolute blasts. I had the pleasure of working with Steve and he killed it. He kept the dance floor packed all night and really made the night the party that it was. I would say if you want your guests to have a great time that they are talking about for a long time after go with these guys, the are incredible.

    DJ Steve from Maryland’s DJ provided music and lights for our event and was incredible! The lighting was perfect for the venue and really brought our vision to life. The music was on point all evening, and we really appreciated how willing Steve was to make announcements on the fly and to just go find out answers to questions so we didn’t have to stress. The guests had a great time dancing and so did we! We 100% recommend Steve and Maryland’s DJ for your wedding or other event!

    The best DJ around!

    We got married September 21, 2019 and we will always remember the 21st night of September because of our amazing DJ, Brian! Brian was amazing to work with on our wedding day and the many months leading up to the wedding. He asked for a timeline months in advance so we could pick the perfect song for each moment of the ceremony and reception. He even gave us suggestions when we were unsure of what song to play when we were being introduced as husband and wife, and offered to remix a few songs for us! Our family and friends are still talking about how much fun our wedding was and it is largely due to the music and lively atmosphere Brian created. We cannot thank him enough and will recommend him to anyone we talk to. This dude knows music and knows how to turn a party into a PARTAY!

    I’m sure the other DJ’s are great, but I can’t imagine a better DJ than Steve Hartka. He was attentive to all of our needs and even handled my parents well!!! He had my grandmother dancing! THE BEST!

    Hire Maryland’s DJ!!!

    Marylands DJ is the absolute best. From start to finish, they were so organized and professional, and made us feel confident we hired the perfect people for entertaining our guests on our wedding day. Steve Hartka was our DJ and he truly was incredible. He took the time to work with us leading up to the wedding to understand the vibe we were going for, help us with logistics for the ceremony, reception announcements and flow of the evening, and so much more. He had all our guests on the dance floor from the minute it opened up until the end of the night - the dance floor was never empty and no one wanted the night to end!!... Read more

    Brian was the best DJ!! We loved all the song choices and remixes and the transitions were amazing too! Everyone at the wedding was raving about how good the DJ was and we couldn’t have imagined a better dance floor. We picked some songs but then also told Brian to just keep people on the dance floor and he definitely delivered. Even the parents and aunts and uncles were dancing most of the night! Our only regret was not having more time for dancing!

    Dj superstars!

    Marylands Dj was amazing to work with from the start. Dj Mike worked with us to understand the overall feel we wanted and delivered above our expectations. So many guests came up to us after the reception and commented on the amazing job he did!

    My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Maryland's DJ. We worked closely with Steve Hartka throughout the entire process and we both have nothing but nice things to say about him and the company as a whole. Steve was responsive with emails and their portal is a great tool for filling out forms and music choices, contacting your DJ and keeping track of your payments. The best part about the experience was the wedding day. Steve and his assistant showed up on time and had everything set up within an hour. He took down all of our important song requests. These guys are true professionals. Everything was so on point with ceremony and cocktail hour music. And the reception was one for the books. Steve and his assistant had our dance floor packed throughout the entire reception. We had multiple people tell us after the fact that it was one of the best receptions they had ever been too. And a large part of that is owed to Steve and Maryland's DJ for making our special night a truly memorable one.

    Maryland DJ - DJ Steve - AMAZING!

    Huge thank you to Maryland's DJ for helping us celebrate our wedding! We couldn't have asked for a more perfect DJ than Steve from Maryland's DJ! He kept everyone dancing all night as we celebrated our big day! He was extremely professional throughout the entire process and was masterful in matching the energy that we were looking for in a DJ. We also used the Video 360 provided by Maryland's DJ for some super fun videos that captured our guests at our celebration in a unique and special way. It's such a joy to see our friends and family so happy for us and celebrating in their own special way!

    Working with Maryland’s DJ was a breeze from the start. Jordan was very informative and laid out all the information for us from our first initial call. We also had a Zoom meeting with Jordan and our DJ for the wedding - Steve, who also helped answer more questions. The portal they use is also convenient and helped us really think about all the details and music we wanted for our wedding, and it was relatively easy to use. Steve also checked back with us a few weeks before the wedding and we ran through everything with him, helping us feel more comfortable. On the day of the wedding, Steve and his assistant ran the wedding and worked with my other vendors to keep the day moving and things on time. He played great music and kept the dance floor packed and I could not have had a better experience! I highly recommend Maryland’s DJ!!

    Maryland's DJ was super easy to work with. They setup a call with us to determine our style and then another meeting with a DJ who fit is best. We worked with DJ Brian. Brian was great! He got everyone up and dancing and really hit the vibe. They also offer an extremely user friendly website to help the couple plan their songs from ceremony into the reception. Highly recommend!!! Thanks again Brian!

    The moment we started working with Jordan and the rest of the team, it was a dream! Professional, kind, creative, and responsive are just a few of the adjectives that come to mind when we think of how fabulous they made our wedding! Jordan took our small list of seemingly random music choices and tied them together into a cohesive and beautiful song list to truly express ourselves as a newly married couple. Now, we are trying to figure out what event we can host to have Jordan and his team DJ again!! Maybe we will just get married again for fun :) Thank you, Jordan, for making our special day even more memorable and perfect!!!!

    We had a great experience working with Maryland's DJ! Brian (our DJ) and Chris (on saxophone) were an absolute dream team. From the planning stages to the big day, they were professional, responsive, and easy to work with. On the day of the event, they nailed it- reading the vibe of the crowd flawlessly and delivering exactly the kind of music we envisioned. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the energy, the music, and especially Chris on sax- he stole the show!
