“Josh is the DJ you want for your wedding or corporate gala. We met with Josh weeks before our wedding to tailor every aspect of his services to our liking. What impressed me most was his ability to read the room and keep the crowd engaged throughout the evening! DJ Teardrop had everyone on their feet and having fun.” —Jack S.

“Josh was absolutely fantastic as our wedding DJ! He kept the dance floor packed all night long with a perfect mix of music that was perfect for all ages. He has tons of options for making it super fun and different. DJ TEARDROP 🎆🎤🕺🏾” —Mady L.

JOSHUA. Best night EVER last night. Everyone lost their minds!!!!!!! So much energy, everyone was so happy, it was amazing!!!! You absolutely KILLED it!!!!

“Josh was an INCREDIBLE DJ!!! We had so much fun and he provided the perfect environment. Everyone had so much fun at our wedding because of the perfect vibe he created. My husband is a DJ so we had high expectations and he exceeded those expectation. Josh was so attentive and even made sure to ask me in the middle of the wedding if everything was going well or if there's anything else the party needed. He was so in tune with the crowd and was just amazing! 10/10!

Oh, and he speaks Spanish so he was able to add a touch of Spanish for those who did speak Spanish and it was awesome!” —Alisa P.

Look, for the longest time I didn’t get the whole DJ thing. Now, I’m writing this the day after my wedding grateful that we 1. Went with a legitimate DJ and 2. That we went with Josh aka DJTeare. If you’re on the fence and want your wedding to be fun, different and memorable… IM TELLING you… move the money around and find a way to book this DJ (for what you’re getting with DJTeare it is the most affordable thing ever). Josh will communicate with you and is very easy going (which you’re going to need if you’re planning a wedding or event). DJTeare not only put in the work he had great ideas. He was part of the days GLUE that kept everything together (especially at the reception). Announcements, moments and absolute bangers one after another. He has any equipment you’ll ever need to throw the party of the century. The guy is versatile, whether it’s a Mormon wedding or an open bar (ours was a mix of both) he can read the room and bring the right vibe. Honestly I was blown away. This is the first DJ I’ve ever hired and it will not be the last time. —Josh P.

Highly recommend booking moment entertainment. Our experience with Josh was beyond! Along with being able to craft the best playlists and kept the party going all night, he really listened and delivered exactly what we had in mind, has the best set up, was organized, punctual, and he’s just a gem of a dude!
