Paul Garza DJed our wedding last Friday and did an amazing job. First of all, we only hired Paul about a month beforehand because up until then, we thought my husband's friend would be able to DJ for us. At the last minute, he wasn't going to be able to get his equipment out to us in time so I found Paul and reached out to him. Paul told me he was available and met with us in person. He was reasonably priced and we couldn't have lucked out better for a last minute booking.
Even though our friend couldn't DJ, Paul let him do all of the introductions which was really sweet. He even let our friend take the reigns and do a couple songs! Paul never felt like our friend was stepping on his toes and we really appreciated that he let us do that.
Paul kept the party going from the beginning. I've had so many people since the end of our wedding telling me how great our DJ was. We had a weird mix of twenty somethings and sixty somethings with not much in between. Even still, Paul was able to judge the crowd and keep people dancing. I don't think there was a second all night long that people weren't all over the dance floor!
His online portal is very straight forward and easy to use. I was able to put in many details and everything we wanted to hear was played at our wedding. Paul is also not one of those DJs that keeps interrupting songs to talk. He knew when it was appropriate to interject and when it wasn't. My husband commented that this was one of his favorite things about Paul: his professionalism on and off the dance floor.
Definitely consider Paul Surreal Entertainment for your next event - you won't regret it!
If you're looking for a DJ, look no further. My husband and I met Dj Paul Surreal at Memories Charcoal House in Mt. Airy, where he Dj's, and long story short..my now husband and I thought the new Dj was great! You see, my husband and I just booked our wedding, and it included our DJ (that was provided by our venue) . But after we heard Paul dj at Memories,I kept thinking to myself ..and my husband and I kept saying how it would be so great if Paul was available to Dj at our wedding. We were in luck, and Dj. Paul S. was available to Dj at our wedding, he also provided the uplighting which I highly recommend. Everything was perfect, my friends and family have told me over and over how our Dj was really good, and how he played the best songs. I got compliments for the uplighting, and how nice the room looked and how it made a huge difference. Thank you Paul for your services, and to anyone looking for a DJ.. I definitley would go with Dj. Paul Surreal!
Our friends and family has described our wedding as "epic" thanks to Paul! He was one of the easiest parts of planning when it came to our wedding. His awesome website planning tool was absolutely perfect for us. Each couple has their own account to tell Paul the times and details of your day. You can include songs that you want and do not want played. This made the process error free and seemless. Paul was so easy to work with and you can hire him for a photo booth as well! It was so nice to have the combo package (one less vendor to deal with)! He kept our guests on the dance floor and wasn't "corny/ goofy" like a lot of the DJ's out there. Thanks Paul for making our day so memorable!!!
I highly Paul for any of your DJ needs! We found him on Yelp and Weddingwire and asked if we could watch him DJ locally to see how he performs and he provided us details on the time and location. He has a very simple and efficient set up with lights and sound systems. What was really impressive for us were the music videos that he played that went with the music. Once we saw that and saw/heard his transitions we knew he was the DJ we wanted.
We had an unusual theme for our wedding, we did a costume theme "Talk Nerdy to Me" and Paul was not only happy to work with us, but he also had some awesome ideas on how to truly make it our own. With the video screen package, he was able to do movie/you tube clips and a slide show.
When it came to getting strange and unusual music, Paul was able to do it with no issues. We asked for quite a few songs that were not in his database including traditional Chinese and Estonian Country music and he was able to get it with no issues. His online planning system made it really easy for us to put our Ceremony and Reception plan together.
All of my guests LOVED the music choices. Part of it was our doing in putting together a song list, and part of it was Paul reading the party and playing accordingly. He even accommodated my niece's request for the Hokie Pokie.
Don't take my word for it, Weddings are not the gigs he does in the DC area. Watch him in action and see for yourself. I feel that if other businesses book him on a regular basis, he is probably a good choice for your wedding. I am really glad I acted on this assumption, and had a chance to work with Paul.
He has my highest recommendations.
