John & Mike, 
 
Stavros & I were married at The Merion on 7/7/07.  We want to thank you very much for making our wedding a DREAM COME TRUE!!! You guys really were AMAZING and we couldn't have asked for anything more.  You were able to conquer the challenge of blending the cultures of Greek & Italian, & along with today's music to make a fantastic night of fun & dancing. The dance floor was packed all night long and our guests are still telling us that you were the best DJ they have ever heard.  Thank you for making our wedding day a memory that is unforgettable to us and our guest.  John & Mike you guys really are THE BEST!!!! Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts.

Our DJ, George Passante. kept the music pumping and the crowd engaged all evening. Numerous guests told my husband and I that they've never danced this much at a wedding, which we considered the highest compliment. We strongly recommend George, as he's a true professional and crowd pleaser who can take a list of songs and turn them into a wonderfully fun and memorable musical narrative.
Many thanks,

To the Staff at DiNardo Brothers:
        I just wanted to thank you so much for playing at my wedding. Anthony Passante was my D.J and he was wonderful he made my wedding an absolute blast. I've been getting a ton of complements about him and I've been referring you to everyone. I cannot express how happy your services has made me. I'll will absolutely book you guys sometime in the future.

Thanks again!

DiNardo Brothers and Anthony Passante,

I have to say that the best part of my night (other then saying I do to my wonderful husband) was the DJ, Anthony; he was amazing and made me and my husband so happy.  He was so professional and very easy to talk to and made the night a huge success.  My husband felt that the music was the most important part of our wedding for him.  We both wanted our family and friends to be able to relax and enjoy themselves.  We could not be any happier then we are.  I would highly recommend you to anyone that is interested in hiring you for a wedding or any other occasion.
Thank you so much for everything that you did to make our wedding so special.

Thank you So Much!!!!

Dear Jon Strout,
 
I just wanted to thank you for the fantastic job you did at our wedding.  Everyone had a blast and it could not have gone any better.  We had several people comment that this was the best wedding they had ever been to and what a great job you were doing.  Thanks for being so flexible with the last minute changes we were making and for making everything so much fun.  We could not have been happier and we will definitely recommend you to everyone we know.  So, thanks again for everything.
 
Sincerely,

The whole experiences was wonderful.  Everyone that we dealt with was  first class.  At my wedding reception the guests were dancing and excited.
 I have never seen most of those people move like that.  After the wedding we got so many phone calls asking who were our DJs and raving on how
 amazing they were.  There vioces were perfect and gave me all the attention I needed and wanted.  As soon as I arrived at my reception I
 told the DJ that I wanted to sing a song, "On the Radio" by Donna Summers.  The DJ played the song and I practiced a little.  They dealt with that
 like we had planned it months ago. They even remembered and reminded me during the reception.  This was great because of how busy I was.  My guest thought it was great and still talk about it.  I will use the DiNardo Brothers for all my music and event needs. Thank you for such a wondeful
 experience.

Kimberly Edler - 7/15/07 - Hotel DuPont

George, you were absolutely perfect! All of the comments from our guests have been how wonderful the DJ was. EVERYONE really enjoyed the music. The props were a big success. DiNardo Brothers is a must recommend and definitely the DJ at our next event!! In the words of my husband, you were "Super Fantastic!!" Thank you so much!

Lynda & Joe Pestritto - 10/13/07 - Manahawkin

Thank you so much for being a fantastic DJ. My guests had a blast and are still to this day asking about you guys. You really made my wedding an amazing success. Thank you so much! I loved each and every song that you all played and most importantly my guests were up dancing the whole night and I owe that to you all. Thank you again for everything I will never forget you guys, YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!

I just wanted to let everybody know how wonderful of a job Mike Scott and his assistant did! They kept the party going all night just like I asked them to. I was very happy with the friendliness and professionalism that they showed and I couldn't have asked for a better night!! Thank you so much Mike!!

Stacey & Patick Viereck - 10/06/07 (Shannon's Country House)

I have to thank you for  making my wedding day a dream! We faced a few challenges with a small wedding, only about 80 guests which took place during brunch at Auletto Caterers on Sunday August 12th. I worried that the event wouldn't have that "party" feel because it was during the day. I voiced my concerns to you guys and my DJ's and they were well received. The dance floor NEVER cleared the whole day. These amazing young men incorporated ALL my crazy requests while playing all the right music to keep everyone having fun. The ceremony music was a dream! They had everything perfect despite the fact that I made very non-traditional selections. They adjusted easily to changes in line ups and accommodated last minute announcements as if they had known the whole time. They were polite, funny, caring and so concerned that I had what I wanted on "my day."  Guests are still asking me about the DJ's...people are calling it "the best wedding they ever attended" and I literally cried when I watched some of my footage today! These men and this company are a gift and the reason my wedding was such a blast! Thank you!

Jennifer Seklecki - 8/12/07 (Aulettos)

Gerry and Nick were wonderful and made our wedding unforgettable!  The dance
floor was packed the whole night, and everyone that attended commented on
what a fun wedding it was!  Bryan and I would like to personally thank Gerry
and Nick for an amazing time!

Nicole Kraus - 8/4/07 (Indian Springs Country Club)

 

I just wanted to write and tell you what an amazing job Paul did.  My guests
have not stopped raving about him and how much fun that they had as a result
of him being there and dj-ing.  He was great to talk to leading up to the
Wedding and kept reminding me it's my day and that anything I wanted to have
he would make it happen.  He really made our reception, and I will continue
to recommend him as well as DiNardo to everyone!!!  Thank you again
Paul!!!!!!!

Charlene Sendel (Winkelspecht) - 8/11/07 (Chateau Resort)

Dear Mike and John,

My family and I went to the Kovac's Wedding and we had a great time.  The place was beautiful but we all know that the music makes the party.  We just wanted to tell you that your guys were fantastic especially Paul Dintino he got the crowd out there dancing and laughing.  I saw some of my relatives who never move up on the dance floor, doing the line dances, because Paul was showing them how.  He never let us sit down, they just kept playing one great song after another.  We did not want to leave when it was over.  Your guys made us feel apart of the wedding and just totally let loose and having fun.  I love the way they get out on the dance floor and participate, I have only seen that once before at a wedding.  Your guys are just so energetic, bubbly and friendly too.  I felt like they were apart of our family and we wanted to take them home with us.  We loved them.
 
Best of all, they make sure the bride and groom are out there enjoying themselves.   After all the time and money they spent preparing for the wedding, a lot of couples never get to enjoy their special day because it goes by to fast.
 
Again my compliments to you and your staff,
 
Michelle Abdo

Steve Kovacs & Jill DiPerri Wedding - 11/4/06 (Auletto's)

Dear Jonathon Strout,
You and your assistant did a fantastic job at our wedding.  We are
extremely pleased with the outcome.  Everyone said they had fun
(exactly what we wanted) and complimented the music.  We were
especially taken back by your professionalism -- you made it a point
to pronounce names of the wedding party and guest speakers correctly.
Your expertise and guidance was much appreciated in the absence of
organization (an understatement) -- we planned the itinerary for the
reception on the spot and went through many revisions.  Thank you
again for all your help!!

Sincerely,
Debi & Liem

John and DiNardo Brothers Entertainment,
 
Thank you so much for providing such an excellent repertoire of music for our ceremony and wedding.  Brian and I were married August 20th 2005 @ Scotland Run Golf Club.  John was our DJ.  The ceremony music was so beautiful and elegant.  The cocktail hour prepped everyone for the reception and guests were dancing in the grand ballroom even before the reception started!!!  All of our requested songs were played and then some!!  I had no doubt that you would be able to keep the guests dancing and having fun.  All the music, announcements, and dances were timed perfectly.  Everyone raved about how they never had so much fun before at a wedding.  I'm still hearing compliments!   I really appreciate the time you took with us to make our day individual and special to our standards.  I will highly recommend you to anyone looking for a great time!!!  Thanks again for an incredible memory, Tara Pimpinello

Dear Mike,

I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the magnificent job you did at my daughter's wedding reception.  I am still receiving compliments on your performance.  As a caterer, I do not always get to gauge the performance of the DJ's that work the room.  In this case I was able to witness your expertise and talent first hand.  I couldn't be more pleased.

As the director of catering, I have applauded you and your entire staff for services rendered in behalf of my clients.  Now, I can sing your praises as father of the bride.  I consider John, yourself and your entire group, the finest "Entertainment Group" in this region.  Without reservation, I will tell each and every couple, that if they want their wedding reception to truly be an event to remember, book the DiNardo Brothers!

Thanks again!

Dear Jon Strout,
We wanted to make sure we wrote you and the company before we head off to our honeymoon tomorrow.
You and your assistant did an AMAZING job at our wedding last night at Kove!!  All we heard from
EVERYONE is what a great time they had and what an excellent job you did to keep people on
the dance floor.  The one thing we cared about the most was the dancing and you went above and
beyond what we expected!!! We took many pictures of our guests dancing, and we'll send you some
pictures whenever we get them back!!  Thanks again for making our day so much fun!!   
Sincerely,
Anna and Ryan James - 8/6/05
 P.S. I recommended DiNardo Brothers to one of my friends when I booked you for my wedding, and
she booked the company for her wedding this February!!!  I am looking forward to having another great time!! 

I  just have to let you know how INCREDIBLE Anthony Passante was at our March 6th wedding. We had an issue with a power outage...and in the dark, with a loud voice, Anthony got the bridal party together, got the crowd pumped and we were introduced. He was great. Once the site decided that having a generator may be a good idea (DUH!), he got the dinner music going and immediately after dinner...it was Dance Party!! Props were passed out and people were moving. It didn't stop the whole night. People are raving about him, still! When my 80 year old grandmother writes me a letter saying the DJ was marvelous...that is something. And the pictures of my grandfather with the "chief" hat dancing with my "sailor" grandmother will forever be a part of our wedding memories. Just wanted to thank you and Anthony for a fabulous job! He saved our wedding! I have plugged him/you on the knot.com and will continue to do so! Also, friends that are recently engaged are already asking about him. Thanks again!

Racquet Club Of Philadelphia - 3/6/04

Our wedding was on October 7 this year and Paul Dintino was our DJ. We cannot say enough good things about him!  We got more compliments on the DJ than we can even tell you!  Everyone was impressed with everything from the choice of dinner music to Paul teaching everyone dances. The props were a huge hit too! We have never seen a dance floor at a wedding as packed as ours was. It was crowded from the first dance all the way to the last dance. We saw people dance that we've never seen dance before! Thank you again and again for a wonderful wedding. We will definitely recommend you to everyone we know!

Thanks again,

Dear John,

I can't leave for my honeymoon without first letting you know how awesome John was at our wedding last night at Pine Hill!  I don't think my wedding would have been half as great if we'd had anyone else.  He really made our party fantastic!  I've already heard from a lot of my guests and they all mention that they loved the dj.
When I first started planning my wedding, my mother in law pushed for a band.  I wanted a dj.  After meeting you, I knew it was DiNardo Bros.  I
knew that your company was going to be good but John blew us away.  My husband and I are both very impressed.  I applaud him for being patient with our bridal party when it was time to do the intros; our group is already a little on the ADD side and pretty drunk.  He was great getting everyone lined up and instructing us on what to do.
He was wonderful about keeping things going, playing the right songs at the right time.  We had picked a few interesting intro songs for our bridal
party and he was great about making some last minute changes when he couldn't find any tasteful spots in the music to play the intro.  Apparently "wanna be a gangsta" from the Office Space soundtrack is mainly cursing.
John was such a great dj that I wish I could have another party just to have him work it!  He had a great sense of what to play and when.  If you ever
need any letters of recommendation or anything, please contact us!

George, Just a note of thanks for doing, once again, an outstanding job!!! I never had a doubt that your "performance" wouldn't be a knock-out, and it obviously was, as everyone was dancing the whole night! And thanks for playing those special songs I requested and making it a perfect evening...we really had a blast! I will continue to, as I always have, recommend Dinardo Brothers in the future! 

Warmest regards,

Hey Jon - I have been wanting to email you and thank you for doing such an awesome job.  You know how worried I was when it came to the music (and definitely not b/c it was you - you were the only reason I didn't worry) I just know that the music is the key factor in a fun or not fun wedding.   You met and exceeded all of my expectations and all of my husband's - which is practically impossible.  He was always leery b/c he didn't know you and he thought I was just picking you b/c I knew you - he was sooo happy I went with you.

Anyway - I put the review from the knot at the bottom of this email.   Its so weird but I am not sure why the reviews don't stay up there long.  I put all of my reviews in my bio and plan on posting like once a month for a little while just so people get to see them.   Hopefully you will get some more work that way.
Here is the review - I could of wrote so much more - thanks for helping me have the perfect wedding!!!!!!

DJ - DiNardo Brothers - (specific DJ was Jon Strout) - (A+++)  He did an incredible job.  Everyone was up dancing most of the night - actually the Wedding was suppose to end at 11:00 but b/c no one wanted to leave the dance floor, we had to extend it an hour.  I highly recommend this company and this specific DJ.  I only gave him a small list of must plays b/c I felt that he could do a better job picking out music and he did.  I had a few people there that are planning a wedding and asked for his card as they were very impressed.

Regency Palace - 4/2/05


Well it's been three months, but I finally got around to email you and telling you how wonderful your service was for our wedding in October. 

You came through last minute and people are still talking about the music and the dancing at our wedding.  You really made a difference in our special night.  The dance floor was never empty and even last minute (a day before the wedding) you were able to play every song we asked for and even add our own special touches, which we will forever appreciate. 
Everyone has said what a wonderful time they had and everyone asked who our dj's were and we happily tell them it was DiNardo Bros. Entertainment.
We thank you again from the bottom of our hearts,
Mr. and Mrs. Jeremy and Tarah Sawyer

Dear John and Mike,

I would like to thank you for your participation in our celebration.  Your DJs were wonderful.  Mark Moore did a great job with the kids.  He kept them occupied with fun games and dancing.  Our son Tyler had a wonderful time.  They truly mad him feel special.  George was good as well with the adults.  He kept the dance floor hopping.  I couldn't have asked for two better entertainers.  Thank you very much.  Your organization is professional and courteous.

I have never heard of so many people being as thrilled about music as I have with the Dinardo Brothers at my wedding.  What an excellent group of people.  I used  Mike DiNardo, one of the owners, and he was fantastic!  He did everything and anything we wanted.  I can't say enough about how great they were.  His DJing made our wedding the best wedding ever!  I recommend the company to anyone who wants great music and a great DJ!

Hi Mike and  John,

The wedding was fabulous because of the DJ!  You did a fantastic job.  The music was such a great mix that everyone was up dancing.  You got people up to dance that I haven't seen dance in ages.  There was never a dull moment and all the timing was perfect -- the cutting of the cake -- throwing of the bouquet -- bride's dance with her dad -- the groom's dance with his mom.  The Jewish Folk Dance was the best. It was so much fun being up in the chair.  What a great time we had and all requests were honored.  Thank you so much -- we had a wonderful time because of DiNardo Brothers.  Everyone was raving about the music.  We won't do another wedding/party without you!

Dear John,

Thank you for helping to make our Wedding such a success.  The whole night was wonderful and you were a main reason for that success.  We were so happy we selected your company over the other company!  It is so important for you to know how much we appreciated your help in making our Wedding a blast!

Dear John and Mike,

I write this letter to praise the way your company handled my Wedding, held on July 12, 2003 at the Mendenhall Inn.

Jon Strout and his assistant did a fantastic job.  I was impressed with Jon even before the Wedding.  He answered all my questions and returned messages promptly.  At the reception, he was professional and organized, and skillfully handled some last-minute changes to the introduction list.  Jon kept the crowd on the dance floor with a good mix of music and accommodated as many special requests as he could.

Everyone I dealt with at your company was extremely helpful.  My wife and I have recommended you to other couples, so I'm sure I'll have a chance to enjoy another" DiNardo Brothers" wedding very soon.

Mendenhall Inn -  7/12/03

I am writing to thank you for making my wedding so much fun! Many of my guests have told me that it was the best wedding they've been to in a long time -- even my photographer told me that! I can't tell you how many weddings I've gone to in the past that have been boring because of the entertainment. With all the stress and time going into planning a wedding, I was so happy and relieved that it turned out to be so much fun! Everyone had a blast and really enjoyed the props too! I will definitely recommend you in the future to others.

Thanks again for doing such a fantastic job!

Dear Mike

Jim and I want to thank you for doing such a great job at our Wedding.  We received many compliments regarding your work.  Your music selection and the variety of song choices were perfectly tailored to what we wanted.  Our guests made a point of telling us that you took special care to play their requests.  You also handled our traditional Jewish dances and ceremonies with ease.  We had a wonderful time on the dance floor with our guests.  We know that the evening flew by so quickly and smoothly, in large part because of your professional and relaxed approach to disc jockeying.  We will certainly recommend you to anyone looking for a DJ.

Jennifer and Jim Jacobus

Thank you for helping make our wedding so memorable! John & the other DJ were great! The dance floor was packed the entire night & everyone had a great time!

Thanks so much!
Vincent & Joanne Ferrara


Paul Dintino was our DJ back on 10/25/03 at Harry's Savoy Ballroom in Wilmington, DE.  He was the best!  Paul really helped to make sure everything went so smoothly.  We had  a party crowd and Paul made sure that no one sat down.  Everybody was up  dancing before they even served our dinner!  My husband and I had the greatest time....the big joke on our honeymoon was, "let's get divorced and  do it all over again!"  Everyone at your company made sure we had exactly
 what we wanted....a great party with no hassle!  Thank you so much!
 Kelly and John Henasey


Hey guys.....I was married on 6/11/99, had our reception at the Renaissance Room which was THE BEST EVER and John DiNardo was our AWESOME DJ for the evening. I just wanted to let you know as we are approaching our one year anniversary, we STILL TO THIS VERY DAY have family and friends comment on how our reception was THE BEST ever!! I owe it all to John DiNardo and his assistant. I truly wish I could do it all over again. I just wanted to personally thank him again for making our special day one that we will never forget!! (He probably won't forget ours either.....my husband is the one who came walking out when we were first announced dressed as James Brown, with James Brown blasting in the background.....the whole crowd was in hysterics and John went right along with us.) Again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts and keep up the GREAT work!!!!!! I ALWAYS highly recommend you to everyone that I come in contact with. Thanks again for making our wedding day the best ever!!!!!!
Denise & Brian Bozarth


My husband and I moved to New York a year ago from the Philadelphia area and I work in the city - downtown before September 11th across from the World Trade Center. I was in the middle of the tragic events on the 11th, only 11 days before our wedding day, which added some additional stress on top of the normal wedding week stress. One of the most touching moments at our reception, which was captured in our video, was when Jon lined all our guests on the dance floor, women on the left – men to the right. Then asked for a moment of silence before he played New York, New York. This song had a special place in my heart before September 11th and even more after. We were very touched by his gesture and will forever treasure our special memories!

Thanks for all the fun – Denise & Bill Torreyson

P.S.---The Dance Floor Was Never Empty – what an amazing night!
