REVIEWS
“We had Kyle as our DJ at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made! Even with our small wedding, the dance floor was packed all night – and one point the venue had to move tables to make more room on the dance floor! It was such a relief not to have to worry about the flow of everything – he kept things running smoothly all night!”
“We hired Kyle for our wedding in Chicago. Kyle was a fantastic DJ and kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night! As soon as we hired him, Kyle helped in all the planning and was very easy to work with. Even with some last minute changes to the venue, he was very accommodating. Kyle was attentive to what we wanted and delivered on it.
“DJ Kyle was phenomenal! We received many great complements on his DJ’ing. We are all so happy that he provided so much great entertainment and did the announcements with such flair. Thank you, Kyle!”
“Kyle was the DJ for our wedding back in May and he really kept people out on the dance floor! He did a great job and a ton of my friends commented that the music was great. Plus he was great with MC duties and stayed off the mic otherwise (I hate when DJs are constantly talking during the reception). We live out of town (Boston) so Kyle Skyped with us to get a sense of what we liked and didn’t like. He was easy going and cool throughout the process. We would recommend him wholeheartedly!”
“Kyle from White Label DJ’s was incredible! Kyle was reassuring while we were planning the wedding and was AMAZING the day of. I have never been to a wedding were nearly 100 people stayed on the dance floor for over two hours. Everyone raved about what good taste he had, how well he read the room, and how seamlessly the music flowed. During the wedding, Kyle checked in with us several times to make sure we were happy and that everything was to our taste. When the main dancing started, the order of the songs he selected were perfect. Additionally, Kyle was kind and professional while announcing various toasts and events. His equipment worked perfectly and looked great. A good DJ really sets the tone of a wedding and makes the night memorable; Kyle was the best DJ I’ve ever seen at a wedding. If you get a chance to book him, I promise you will have an amazing event. Kyle works tirelessly to assure that you have the night you dreamed of!”
“Kyle was the DJ at our wedding this past May. He was great! Very friendly and responsive; we were able to do a phone interview with him before we booked and he met with us in person leading up to the wedding to discuss our musical tastes, expectations, etc. He showed up early to our ceremony so that everything was prepared and set up long before guests arrived. Kyle was responsive to the guests at the reception too…playing songs that kept a crowd on the dance floor all night. I would definitely recommend him!”
“We hired Kyle Barnes to DJ our July wedding. We gave him a slightly crazy list of musical preferences, and he accommodated both my and my husband’s tastes. He kept the event moving very smoothly, and our guests were dancing all night long. Multiple guests commented on how good his playlists were, both for dancing and for the cocktail hour. We were thrilled with White Label and Kyle, and would recommend them both enthusiastically!”
“We had Kyle as our DJ and he did an amazing job! He was very professional from planning the music to be tailored to our personal taste, to the setting up, dj’ing and taking down. It was very important to us that people had a good time dancing and really enjoyed the music, so I did a ton of research before selecting White Label DJs. I’m extremely happy with my choice, and I really couldn’t have asked for anything more. The dance floor was grooving all night long and people definitely had a great time! Kyle even was able to accommodate a few special requests of certain songs such as a specific live version of a Talking Heads song and a lesser-known cover version of our first dance song. Highly recommend.”
“Kyle was a perfect choice to DJ our wedding! We were originally planning to make our own playlist and use an iPad since the venue had their own sound system, but we are so happy and thankful that we went with Kyle instead. White Label DJ is very affordable, and the high quality of Kyle’s work made it even more valuable. We would not have had the dance party we did had we not had Kyle. I am the bride, and I was dancing the entire time because the music was so great! Many of our guests commented on the Djing and how amazing the dancing was at our reception. One guest said they’ve never seen so many people dance so much at a wedding before! Kyle did an excellent job tailoring the playlist to my taste. He really took our questionnaire and our input from our in person meeting seriously. He censored the requests as well making sure the music did not stray from our style, and he listened to my input throughout the night. Kyle also stepped in as coordinator keeping an eye on time and making sure that our event ran smoothly. We were so happy with White Label DJs and Kyle every step of the way!”
“Kyle was an excellent wedding DJ. He took all of our finicky musical tastes into account perfectly, and played an ideal mix of different types of music with impeccable timing. He had all of our guests cramming the dance floor until we were kicked out. Kyle did a great job running the show smoothly and keeping things on time without overwhelming the party with an overbearing personality. He also did an unbelievably good job editing our first dances to our exact specifications, including all the parts we wanted while paring them down to short, workable times. We couldn’t be happier with our choice.”
“DJ Kyle was wonderful! Our wedding was at Lacuna Artist Lofts in mid-August. We needed to find a DJ to provide music for our ceremony, a microphone for our officiant, and music for our cocktail hour that were held on the rooftop, then music for our reception inside. Kyle was so responsive and reasonably priced when we were looking for a DJ. About a month before our wedding, we met with DJ Kyle to discuss our music taste and share ideas of songs we wanted played during different parts of the event. DJ Kyle did an amazing job of reading the room and kept the dance floor busy all night!”
