• Alden (John and his wife Kelly) are much more than just DJ's - they both sing- they sing jazz so well that people at the wedding did not believe that it was live singing. So it was both a DJ and live entertainment experience, which was fantastic. THey worked with us closely from the time we signed them up through the day of the event, working with us on song list, special requests, announcements, etc. They continually were perfectly professional and gracious and we felt lucky to have them at our reception. Moreover, they also arranged for the pianist who performed at the cocktail party. -- Daniel R, New Rochelle, NY, 9/29/2007
• Working with John was a pleasure throughout the entire process-- from booking, till his willingness to stay late when our wedding reception went over time. He was always professional, and clearly knew what he was doing every step of the way. And I highly recommend having him sing at your event as well- he has a great voice – I only wish I had asked him to sing in at our cocktail hour! -- Karen G, Manhattan, NY, 5/2/2009
• John was a wonderful DJ at my wedding. He called me a few nights before the wedding to go over the final details regarding our song choices and how to pronounce everyone's names (no small feat in my wedding). He played every song from the list of "wants" that my hsband and I had. I still have wedding guests commenting on what a great time they had at the wedding, with John's music selections being one of the top things they enjoyed. He was also able to accommidate the large age gap (7-85 years) we had, with something for everyone to enjoy. I highly recommend Alden Entertainment. -- Cindy C, Swedesboro, NJ, 11/1/2008
• John Alden is the complete professional. The combination of singing and dj-ing he provides is lovely and added something special to our event. Our guests are still complimenting us on the music. Working with John was easy. He was accomodating and worked with us to create an event that was exactly what we were looking for. He played the set-list we provided and incorporated appropriate and complementary music of his own choosing. I would hire John again for an event without question. -- Jen S, West Orange, NJ, 8/23/2008
• John from Alden Entertainment was the main success of my party. He played exactly the variety of music needed to get all of my family to enjoy the day. He was able to add to the play list I provided and made perfect announcements through-out the day -that were carefully spaced out giving each their own moment. It was a casual event and yet John provided a professional environment suitable to please all my guests. I highly recommend him for any event with confidence that the customer will not be disappointed. If I have another party that entertainment is needed - I will choose Alden Entertainment. -- Tina R, Absecon, NJ, 5/18/2008
