December 8, 2025Would book again!
We contracted the DJ and photo booth services for a corporate holiday party in a boutique hotel restaurant. Varsity Rock performed set-up and take-down with speed and expertise. During the event, Michael was helpful and receptive to guest requests. The service provided was exactly what was expected and there were no unpleasant surprises. Would book again! 5-stars!

October 23, 202510/10 for our wedding DJ!
DJ Mic with Varsity Rock did an amazing job for our wedding! His communication was great and he listened to all of our needs. When we arrived, he was already set up and ready to go. From the ceremony to cocktail hour, to having the dance floor full all night, DJ Mic did not miss. People were getting up to dance during dinner the music was so great! We appreciated his ability to set the tone for our wedding day and help make it the celebration we always wanted. Thank you DJ Mic and Varsity Rock!

October 1, 2025Seamless, Fun, and Professional – Highly Recommend!
Varsity Rock DJ was absolutely fantastic at our wedding! From the very first conversation, they made the planning process easy and stress-free. They were organized, professional, and really listened to what we wanted for both the ceremony and reception.
On the big day, they showed up fully prepared and kept everything running smoothly and right on schedule. Their energy was infectious — they kept our guests engaged, excited, and dancing all night long. We really appreciated how they handled every detail with care and made sure the whole event flowed seamlessly.
We can’t thank them enough for helping make our wedding day so special. If you're looking for a DJ who’s reliable, fun, and incredibly professional, Varsity Rock DJ is the way to go!
