Colleen was the first vendor I hired and she is terrific. She is fun, professional and knows how to get a party going. Easy going and with great communications I would urge any one looking for a dj to use Sugartown. From old to new, funk to rock, Colleen gets everyone moving and her lists and recommendations make it really easy for you.

Colleen was incredible. The feedback from all of our guests (and we spanned the generations from ages 3 to 75) was that the music was amazing. She really listened to us and customized the music to fit our personalities, tastes, and what our guests would like. She also threw in some surprises just for us, which was an amazing touch on our day. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

DJ Wells Crandall was incredible. We met twice over a 9 month period and gelled instantly. He really took the time to understand my musicial influences/taste and the atmosphere I was hoping to create. Boy, did he deliver! My guests said this was the best wedding music they ever heard. The dance floor was occupied all night. The cocktail hour set the tone of an elegant dinner and the ceremony music created a spiritual and loving energy. Hire him for your next event and get the most bang for your buck. Rock on, Wells!

We had DJ Taro for our wedding and he was absolutely amazing. Our guests are still raving about him. From the very beginning of the planning process, he really got it. We named a few songs and the overall vibe we were going for and he was instantly able to suggest other similar/better songs that fit right in. During the wedding, we also had a band for earlier in the evening and we were a bit nervous about the flow but he made it completely seamless and painless. His announcements were unobtrusive and perfectly timed. My guests danced the ENTIRE night and he even allowed a bonus number after the last song was played. I highly recommend DJ Taro and PopShop DJs for your wedding - you won't be disappointed!

I was going to write that contracting with Sugartown Industries was the best decision I made about my wedding, but need to edit that- deciding to marry my groom was the best decision, but Sugartown was the second-best! Seriously, I cannot recommend them enough. We chose Sugartown based on an internet search for non-cheesy wedding DJs in the NY metro area. I have been to enough weddings with cheesy, overbearing DJs, playing the same twenty songs, and we knew we wanted something a little different for our wedding. Our DJ was Mona Dehghan and from the first time we Skyped with her, we absolutely loved her. I was pretty intimidated at first because she has lots of music cred, and we have pretty mainstream taste in music. But, she was so sweet and funny and nice. What really sold me was when we told her that we wanted our wedding to just be a big dance party and she said that she wanted everyone to just have the feeling of elation all night long. That was the perfect way to sum up how we wanted the reception, too. She was really respectful of our mainstream tastes and selections and gave us some great options for different special songs. During the reception itself, Mona was absolutely amazing. She totally got our vision and our family and friends and had everyone on the dance floor all night. It was amazing to see the generations and some very disparate groups of friends and families mixing it up on the dance floor- literally all night. She managed my sometimes overbearing family's requests so well- at one point the Irish side kept requesting Irish songs and the Italian side said something- so she played the Tarantela. It was really funny and fun- and perfectly timed. I literally cannot say enough about Mona, she was the best DJ I could possibly imagine- she read the crowd perfectly, she incorporated all of our ten "must play" songs seamlessly, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a wedding DJ that is not "typical" and cheesy but fun, classy, and energ

We LOVED Dave Fischoff! He was so great, he played everything we requested from the more underground indie stuff to fun dance music. If you are not looking for "wedding music" I highly recommend this company. We were very specific in what songs and bands we wanted and he listened and played exactly what we wanted and more! He was such a nice guy and had a nice "non-announced" voice that we loved. I recommend him and the entire Popshop dj squad to everyone!

We could not have asked for a better wedding DJ than Colleen of Sugartown Industries. From the moment we first sat down with her, we knew she was going to be easy to work with, responsive, and extremely capable. She turned out to be all of those things and more! During our planning stages, Colleen provided a ton of great music suggestions for everything from ceremony and dinner music to first dance and parent dances. She was always available either by phone, over email, or in person to answer any questions that we had. We felt totally comfortable going into our wedding that she was going to do a great job-- and she definitely did. The flow of the evening was perfect, mostly due to her suggestions. She kept a low profile the entire time, gently "guiding" guests from one part of the evening to another but never monopolizing the microphone or coming across as a typical "wedding DJ." And the dance party portion of the reception was amazing! She covered everything we had requested while also throwing in some great choices of her own, which we loved. Our music selections really ran a range of old/new, pop/alternative, fast/slow, and Colleen did a fantastic job working everything together so it flowed perfectly. We're still hearing from guests both old and young about how great the music was. Even the girl manning our gelato station was rocking out as she scooped! We're so happy we chose Colleen as our DJ and could not be more pleased with her work. We highly, highly recommend her!

DJ Taro was the DJ for our wedding and he was really great to work with. Professional and always prepared he was great with suggesting songs and helping us with figuring out the right songs we wanted for our wedding. After the first meeting he suggested putting a piece of paper on the fridge to write down songs that happened to pop into our heads that would be great for the wedding and that really worked well! While we never had to meet up with Colleen, she was really prompt and responsive through emails and it was a pretty seamless process. During the night of DJ Taro kept the dance floor going all night long. His announcements were never overpowering or obnoxious but really cool and classy. Just what we wanted. We're really glad we had DJ Taro and Sugartown Industries as our DJ vendor.

Looking back at my wedding, my DJ was my best decision. Colleen from Popshop DJs was always responsive and incredibly organized and professional. Dave Fischoff was our DJ and the music from beginning to end was perfect. He was flexible, easy to reach in advance, helpful, offered suggestions and advice and every one of my friends commented on the music. He knew what to play to keep people dancing. I could not recommend them enough. http://www.popshopdjs.com/

Our DJ Dave was amazing! Thank you so much for making our wedding day memorable. Dave was very receptive to our needs, and requests. The evening flowed perfectly thanks to Dave's help. We had our wedding at Bubby's, so since he had done other events there before, he was very helpful in assisting me with my timeline. Emails and phone calls were returned in a timely fashion and the prices were extremely reasonable. The entire experience was pleasant and professional. Thank You to Colleen and Dave!

she was super awesome to work with the whole time, (even sent me a christmas card, i mean, thats just nice). it as a tricky wedding to dj as we neeed her to play greek music, social dance music to please the older folk, indian bhangra music, salsa (for my friends), hip hop/ contemporary. so it as a huge mish mosh and I think that was difficult to deal with but she did a great job. the only thing I would recommend is to really think about how you want your music played when you meet with her and take the time to do this. For example, I wish that I had asked for a specific song after the first dance, or rather than give her 6 indian songs and her deciding which 3....I should have just told her the 3 I wanted her to play. She actually asked and was trying to push us for all this info, but I just figured it would work itself out and I think that since you're paying all that money, you SHOULD take the time to think about it and give her the preferences so she can make you as happy as possible. great Dj though, great job! She was extremely professional throughout. popshop does NOT play any cheesy music which was what we wantd (no hustle, hokey pokey, etc).

We had a great experience with their DJ Eric. Our guests have raved about the playlist and we never. stopped. dancing. :)

Pop Shop was great to work with. Colleen was very responsive, proactive & professional. Eric was my DJ. He's very friendly & flexible. We met with him initially to go through our vision and shortly before the wedding to go over the final details. Being that he's been to many weddings I appreciated getting his advice on how things should flow. On the day of the wedding, my family ended up dominating the dance floor. I didn't anticipate this but am very grateful to Eric & his assistant for changing things around & being able to find songs that kept them on the dance floor. If you want to work with a professional DJ company that knows all types of different types of music, Pop Shop is for you.

My husband and I were not really the wedding types and were fairly difficult through the planning process. While our parents wanted us to have a big, traditional affair, we wanted to keep things on the smaller side without the typical wedding hooplah. Initially, people were confused and hesitant when they heard we were using a DJ for our wedding. Our parents begged us to go the more traditional route of having a band, but we resisted. Needless to say, Colleen proved everyone wrong! Guests raved about the wide array of great music played - how appealing it was to everyone, both young and old. From the start, Colleen understood what we were looking for. From knowing our tastes, she was able to select songs that both our guests and we would enjoy. Colleen understood that neither of us liked being the center of attention and helped us get through typical wedding traditions in the least cheesy, most comfortable way possible. Colleen was easy to deal with throughout the whole process, and was extremely professional and accommodating! The dance floor was packed the entire night, and we have Colleen to thank for making our wedding so fun! I highly recommend Colleen for your big day!

love colleen! she's amazing. i literally danced the entire time at my wedding and everyone of all ages commented on how great the music was. she was perfect for our night

Taro Baugham of popshop! djs is an original. The collection of vinyl he transported all the way to Yonkers had to be a fraction of what he owns and it was impressive in its own right. He had everyone wishing it was dance time from the moment the speakers turned on during cocktail hour. He was faithful to our must and do-not playlists and was dressed to impress. His manager, possibly the owner of popshop!, Colleen acted as the point person for us and was very accessible over email. Popshop's professionalism and service makes it easy for us to recommend them on wedding wire.

Our DJ was Erik of PopShop DJs, We thoroughly enjoyed working with Erik. He was super accommodating, friendly, fun and was the perfect DJ for our wedding dance party. Erik came highly recommended from the Indie Bride blogs, and I am so glad that he had our day available! We were on a very tight budget, and he worked with us to come up with a rate that was within our reach, and charged us at cost for his transportation out to Long Island (he is based in Brooklyn.) We were considering doing an iPod DJ package with another DJ company - but when they stopped returning our calls within 3 months of the wedding, Erik saved the day! His rate was really reasonable - compared with other DJS we looked into (DJ GAZA for one) he was nearly half the price - and completely lived up to our high expectations. We met with Erik twice prior to the wedding and we found him very professional and easy to talk to. Our friends really LOVE dancing, and I knew that we would need to somehow evenly balance the night between the Baby Boomer crowd (my parents friends) and our friends who get down to old-school hip hop, Janet Jackson, cheesy 90s tunes, etc. Erik completely “got it” and worked with us to create a perfect mix of 90s hip hop, 80s stuff everyone can dance to (but nothing cheesy – no “What I Like About You” or “Macarena” at our request.) The dinner hour was picture perfect - a combination of Bob Dylan, Fleet Foxes, the Shins, Edward Sharp, Paul Simon. I felt with other DJs that I met, that they would fight me on my choices. They would always seem to work in a "big band" section, or a "grease lightning" medley into the song choices they would suggest. When I said PLEASE NO LADY GAGA other DJs would say “yeah, but everyone is going to want to hear that, and you want people to dance, don’t you??" – instead Erik said “It's OK, there are millions of other songs we can play, so you don’t have to hear Gaga on your big day if you don't want to.” From the second Erik started spinning – by the time salad was on the table, my friends were ready to dance. And, Erik met the challenge. He also handled our introduction announcement with grace. There were no “jock jams” being played – instead Erik completely respected our wishes for a low key entrance and made only about three announcements all night – which was just what we asked him to do. He was great in working with our music and song list. I highly recommend Erik Karff for your big day. He is the perfect DJ, really nice and fun to work with. Thanks Erik!!

Dave from popshop! was AMAZING. I realize I'm biased, but our wedding was the best dance party I have ever been to and that's all on Dave. Our meetings with him were incredibly helpful as far as organizing the flow of the night and he killed it with the great songs during the actual wedding. His only tiny misstep came during the ceremony, when he played the groom's entrance song as the officiant came down the aisle. It was totally not a big deal and he more than made up for it with the awesomeness of the dance party.

I got nothing but compliments on the music. Colleen had a great mix of music for our crowd and we were pleased. She went above and beyond and her first and only priority was what we wanted in order for the guests to be happy. It just so happens in our case, our wedding served as more of a reunion than a reception/party, but those of us (including myself) danced as much as we could, when we didn't need a break to munch and drink. I'd definitely use her company's services again and highly recommend.

popshop DJ's wasn't one of the cheaper DJ's we looked at, but we made the decision that this was the one part of the wedding we didn't want to cut corners with. We wanted to avoid the typical wedding/bar mitzvah MC type DJ and too many of the shops we spoke with tried to push their smoke machine style productions. The others seemed the opposite extreme pushing certain specific genres of music. popshop on the other hand seemed flexible to work with us (as long as we didn't request line dances and kc and the sunshine band). After asking us a series of extensive questions about our tastes, they paired us up with one of their DJ's they thought would be a good match, Travis Harrison. Travis met with us twice to go through the kinds of music we wanted and how to pace the evening. He talked us into and out of a few things based on his experience, but also worked with a few specific ideas that we had. At the end of the day, we had the kind of music we wanted, some of which was very specific to our individual tastes, but it didn't have to come at the cost of the enjoyment of the rest of our guests. Travis did a great balancing act, and did so with professionalism and no over the top kitsch.

Highly recommend popshop DJ. From the first conversation I had with Dave Fischoff (he works with Coleen at popshop DJ) till the last moment of the wedding, Dave was professional, insightful, attentive and always focused on delivering his best. He guided us through the event planning by asking us early on what music we want to play throughout the event. He made great suggestions and was very knowledgeable about music and party making. Thanks to Dave's specific questions and his experience, we were able to focus on planning many details early on. In some ways, I thought of Dave as the wedding planner advisor. We had a crazy dance party till 1am (we stayed as long as we could at our venue). Everyone was on the dance floor going wild. My friends continue to tell us that they haven't danced like that in a long time and that our wedding was the best and most fun one they have been at. In a large part, that is thanks to Dave. He made the whole event flow smoothly and without any issues. He played great music and he also looked good! popshop DJ is very professional organization and Coleen runs it effectively by taking care of the coordination and contract signing. It was a pleasure working with Dave and Coleen I highly recommend popshop DJ.

Colleen had all of our guests dancing the entire night. It was amazing. From start to finish she really was the best choice for us. She really really knows her music, but also knows what people want to dance to. She's also so helpful and friendly.

Colleen was a dream to work with. She was professional and has so much variety of music that everyone will be happy. And she does so without playing anything corny! She totally worked with us to accommodate our layout preferences and it was clear she really wanted to keep us happy. She was awesome!

We loved Colleen! She was extremely easy to work with and I found myself constantly thinking "I love this song!" throughout our wedding. She handled the ceremony music beautifully and provided a great sound-track throughout the night. Most importantly, quite a few of our guests commented on the fantastic song selection.

DJ did an excellent job, before and during wedding. We were especially pleased with the advice she was able to offer regarding the flow of the night. She also stuck close to the direction we gave her for music, but was experienced and sharp enough change up to what the crowd was into when it was appropriate.

Great DJ!!! I have never seen people get up so fast to dance. He really kept everything going and everyone on the dance floor. Would recommend him to anyone!

Popshop is GREAT for brides and grooms who want fabulous music that is not so "traditional wedding" music- with a dj that give the excitement and fun a wedding deserves! I found out about popshop from reading another review and upon emailing Colleen, she got in touch with us immediately and asked us questions about our musical taste so that she could put us in touch with a dj that would reflect the genre and style that is similar to ours (unfortunately she, herself was not available). Within days we were introduced to Travis who turned out to be JUST what we needed at our wedding to keep everyone up and having fun! We met with him to discuss our needs, songs that were on our "must play" list and to go over general logistical needs. He was great and did not have a pre set list of songs to play but really played music based on the mood of the crowd. So many other djs we interviewed were all about being in the business so long and basically setting up computers or cd players to take care of the night. While we talked with Travis about what we wanted, he did his homework to find the amazing songs that would reflect the feeling, the mood, and some artists that we wanted to hear. My feet were KILLING me by the end of the night - because of all the dancing! Travis was really great and even mixed a bit during dinner, he understood the flow of the evening and really got our oldest of relatives and even those ... young at heart up and dancing! Colleen runs with a great group of djs- their website speaks for itself and the service is great!

Colleen is the only DJ we met with, partly because we got so excited by her 12-pg PDF of all the songs she will and won't play (http://www.popshopdjs.com/music.html). We felt we were on the same page right away, and loved her music knowledge (although she doesn't come off as a music snob), her personality and the mixes she put together on her radio show ( http://www.eastvillageradio.com/modules.php?name=evrshow& ;showid=76). I loved that she asked for the mix of ages of the guests so she knew what she was working with, and that she has a policy to not leave the booth unattended (we were worried about some drunk friends/relatives getting a hold of the mic). Nobody got off the dance floor the entire night! One of our friends leaned over at the end of the night and said "Best DJ ever" while many others kept commenting us on our playlist. Of course, we gave the credit back to her!

Working with DJ Crumbcake (Colleen) was wonderful. When we were trying to find wedding music, we were so turned off by everyone who called themselves a "wedding band" or "wedding dj." When I saw popshop's website, I was so relieved to see a long list of music that I love. The djs at popshop do events, but that is not all they do. DJ Crumbcake also has a weekly radio show and spins at bars and venues all over New York. She traveled to Massachusetts for our wedding (we paid for her travel expenses). Everyone loved the dj and she kept people of all ages dancing all night. We had a blast. Colleen was a huge help to us throughout the planning process and helped us figure out many issues, such as flow. Fabulous experience! Highly recommend!
