What customers have to say about Jess...
"DJ Jess exceeded our expectations
"My partner and I planned a somewhat small wedding (50 guests) during our three month engagement. We were very worried about our guests safety during our COVID-19 wedding and I was hesitant to hire a DJ or have a dance floor at all. Jess ended up being one of the highlights of our night, though. Beforehand, we spoke briefly on the phone, at which point she picked up on ur vibe, gave us some guidance, and took care of the rest. She really curated our experience based on what our guests wanted. I imagine that during the pandemic she has had to show up, read the room, and adjust accordingly - she did this seamlessly on Friday."

"Thank you so much for everything you have done for us! Working with you has been amazing and so easy! Happy to have you celebrating our big day with us!
"Love,"

"Hire ANYONE from this company!!!!
"For our August 29 wedding my husband and I had a whirlwind of a planning process. Like most couples this year we dealt with changing plans and venues. When our original DJ backed out, I called Get Down Tonight, fingers crossed they’d be able to help us with late notice. Tommy was so kind and calm and took away all my worries in minutes. It was so seamless it felt like it was meant to be all along.
Our DJ was Jess Riley and she was incredible. Jess was so fun to communicate with prior to our wedding. Our planning meetings were very well thought out, organized, and Jess took all of our likes and dislikes into thoughtful consideration. Music was the biggest part of our day that each of us had opinions on and Jess made it look easy to handle our vast/eclectic music tastes.
"She also emceed our evening perfectly without any dead air - playing our requested songs at the perfect moments. We couldn’t have asked for anything more.
"Last but not least, my guests did not leave the dance floor. That is the true mark of a great DJ. Thank you Jess and everyone at Get Down Tonight.
If you are looking for a professional DJ and company that is worth your money, look no further."

"We had Jess Riley DJ our wedding last month and OMG
"She was absolutely amazing. From the first time we spoke up until the very last minute of the night, she was there for us. She was very helpful and understanding, especially during this crazy thing called COVID… She was so upbeat and personable towards all of our guests, which we got so many compliments afterwards about her! :) And she certainly did not let us down on the party! Everyone was up on the dance floor groovin all night (and I mean everyone - age 4 to 84!). We highly recommend this DJ service, and especially Jess - She was an absolute gem <3"

"DJ Jess was amazing!
"Finding the right DJ can make or break a wedding! My husband and I both knew that we wanted to throw an amazing reception with as much dancing as possible. We met with a few local DJ companies that just weren’t the right fit for us and began doubting if we were ever going to find the right one. When we met DJ Jess we knew immediately she was the one! She understood our vision for our wedding and made sure to take numerous notes to ensure our day was perfect! The day of our wedding we were so excited to finally get out on the dance floor with our fiends and family and dance the night away. Jess made sure to play what everyone wanted to hear and the dance floor was packed all night long, you can tell she loves what she does! Our guests haven’t stopped telling us how much fun they had and how awesome she was! We loved her so much we booked her for our second wedding celebration this summer! Be sure to meet with her and book her immediately before she books with another couple!"

"Thank you for the incredible job you did providing music and entertainment for Kathryn’s wedding at Manchester Country Club on Saturday. Many of our guests commented on what a great time they had. We were so pleased with everything!
"Thank you",
- Cyrena Mandel, Mother of the Bride, 01-04-2020
"Jess Riley was absolutely amazing! My guests are STILL complimenting her song choices and her talent. She made my wedding so special and really brought all of my guests together. I will be recommending her to all my friends and family!
"Thank you so much for setting me up with Jess, she’s truly got talent!"
- Jennifer Brown, 10-31-2019
"Jess was phenomenal from start to finish during the entire process of selecting a DJ for my wedding. She was responsive every time I had a question or change to the program. We met multiple times before the wedding just because I kept having dreams that everything was going to go horribly wrong and she eased my worries. When the day came, she blew not only me but my guests away too. I can’t count how many people came up to me not only during the wedding but the weeks following to tell me how awesome my DJ was.
"My favorite moment of the night, and proof of the professional that Jess is, was during the bouquet/garter toss. I had, in the weeks before the wedding, told Jess I didn’t want it to be horribly awkward so we had made a plan to flip flop the traditional. Which meant the girl who won the bouquet would put the garter on the guy that caught the garter. But when the time came and I saw the people within my family and friends who caught the bouquet/garter I grabbed Jess with a quick “Abort! Abort! Do the traditional! Let him put the garter on her!” Jess nodded and seamlessly changed plans. No one had any clue, including my husband, what our original plan was. Jess made it seem like that was the plan the entire time.
"Jess made my dream wedding a reality, which was basically a giant family reunion where everyone would dance the entire night. I had a very high standard for what I wanted in a DJ (responsive to my emails/texts, flexibility on play list and what was going in the wedding, being at two locations for ceremony and reception, expertise to be able to guide me through the process because I was clueless, an awesome sound system/playlist, and most importantly being friendly and easy to talk to) and she exceeded all of them.
"Thank you so much Jess!"
- Alanna + Lawrence Yassanye, 09-28-2019
"I wanted to express our sincerest thank you to DJ Jess. She kept the party going and had everyone up and dancing when we thought there wouldn’t be much dancing at all. She checked in with us many times throughout the evening to make sure we were all set and didn’t need anything. We have gotten a lot of compliments for DJ Jess from our guests. Everyone had a great time and we couldn’t have done it without you! Thank you times a million for everything it was an absolute pleasure working with you and we will be sure to send you some referrals!!
"Thanks,"

"We had Jess Riley as our DJ at our wedding this past August. As soon as we reached out to Jess, she was immediately so responsive & receptive to ANY & ALL ideas we had. We gave Jess ideas of some songs that we like for each different part of our wedding (guests waiting at the ceremony, walking down the aisle, the cocktail hour, dinner, and the reception/party!!!) We sort of had a different theme/idea for each… We gave Jess a few songs we wanted, and somehow she was able to put together these absolutely perfect playlist for every second of the day! We had everything from Bob Dylan & Led Zeppelin, to Leon Bridges, Tribe Called Quest, Missy Elliot… and Jess made everything flow so perfectly. Leading up to the wedding, even a few days before, I would text Jess any random thoughts or ideas as they popped into my head, and even though it was the middle of a busy wedding season for her, she always responded and reassured me she would make it work! Our guests danced ALL NIGHT, no one left the dance floor for hours. Music was important to us and Jess made everything absolutely perfect… Would recommend her to ANY bride, groom, or party with ANY different taste in music, 110%!!! Thanks Jess!
"Love,"

"I just wanted to let you know that Jess Riley was fantastic. I recommend her highly. She went above & beyond our expectations. She had a keen sense of what music our guests were comfortable with and needed to hear to have a great time. We provided Jess with a list of songs we like and she managed to play them at the right times during the evening. We had guests from age 2 to 82 and Jess managed to keep everyone happy. Please let her know that we appreciate all of her extra work to make our 50th wedding anniversary celebration (which was on the Winnipesaukee Belle on July 19) just perfect."

"Big thank you to DJ Jess Riley. She worked a party for me last Friday night. We met before the party to go over details. She was professional, had great ideas, took all of our requests, got the party going and kept it going. Many thanks!!"
- Dott Ferrari, 05-10-2019
"Jess has the skills, the personality, and the drive. Her attention to detail and desire to make every event the best it can possibly be will ensure that she becomes one of the regions best DJs. From Jess' mixing and MC skills and her background in the wedding industry, she knows what it takes to make an event successful. Jess is someone I recommend with 110% confidence."
