Our Reviews

Our DJ was David Swirsky and he was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. He DJ’ed during our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. During our first consultation, he really listened to us and understood what kind of music experience we were looking for. We wanted a mix of American, Chinese, Russian, and video game music, and David was very enthusiastic about helping us with that. The booking process was easy, and Charissa (the office administrator), was very pleasant to work with. David and Charissa both were quick to respond via email to any questions that we had. The company website also has a wedding planning form that was very helpful. David met with us again the week before the wedding to go over all the details and make sure that we were all on the same page, which we really appreciated. He had mentioned in our first meeting that he was very detail-oriented, which resonated with me and put me at ease because I’m also very detail-oriented! It was so great to hear some of our favorite music being played, and David did an excellent job with the rest of the music selection. The music was definitely audible but not too loud during dinner, so that we didn’t have to shout to be heard, and even during dancing it seemed to be just the right volume (loud enough to be fun, but not ear-splitting). My husband and I are not dancers ourselves, but I know our dancing guests had a great time! David’s services were a little outside of our budget range, but we decided to splurge and book him. It was well worth it! I highly recommend Expressway Music to anyone looking for DJ services (they have other DJs with different price ranges), and would personally recommend David Swirsky!

On time, great job what more could a married woman ask for.

David is extremely personable and knowledgeable about all genres of music. Has an online request database and planning form that is extremely helpful. Played the music we requested and the additions he made were crowd pleasers. He really did a wonderful job on a most memorable night! The dance floor was packed all night long and there was definitely something for everyone. I wish I could have danced every dance! We also had 2 percussionists and they created a semi-live feel that really added to the atmosphere. He’s a little more than your average d.j. but you get a level of class and professionalism where you really don’t have to worry about the music the whole night. Highly recommend!

We had Julie play the violin at our ceremony and Richard play piano at our reception. They both did an excellent job. Everything went very smoothly from a logistical perspective, and they both adhered to the preferences we had communicated!!

David Swirsky was our DJ. We saw him at a wedding a year before ours and really enjoyed his style and approach to wedding entertainment. He checked with us on requested songs, kept the talking to a minimum (which we wanted) and has a really easy to use online song-database where you can create your own playlist for your event. He and his harpist, Christie, were prompt, professional and polite.

Expressway Music is a terrific company, top to bottom, for handling your event’s musical needs. For our wedding in February , my wife and I knew we should hire David and his company after our first interaction.
He had been recommended by a friend who had hired David for his own wedding, and he (correctly) told us that we couldn’t go wrong with a DJ who has David Bowie and Outkast album covers on his office walls. He was right. David and his staff (who were always professional, courteous and helpful) set the tone perfectly right from the moment we sat down for our first chat. He understood our rather diverse musical tastes immediately. He let us think through each section of the wedding day and what kind of mood we were hoping to set. And while he encourages a limited number of requests, he is able to perfectly read the crowd to get or keep everyone dancing. He also goes the extra mile, as we had selected for our first dance a song that we could only find online, in a live performance YouTube clip. He cleaned up the track and made my wife’s day as she got to dance to the perfect version of her favorite song.
I can’t recommend Expressway Music and David Swirsky highly enough!

David and his team were great to work with for our March wedding. Our wedding guests loved the music David played (as did the bride and groom!) and danced the night away!
Additionally David and his team were extremely responsive and professional in all of our dealings w/ them. % recommend!

David was the DJ at my wedding in June. He was recommended to us by our photographer, and I am so glad that we took the recommendation. I can not say enough good things about David. When we met with him in planning the event, he instantly understand what music we wanted.
During the cocktail hour and dinner the music was present but not overwhelming, and for the dancing portion he knew what would get people on the dance floor! I would definitely recommend him to people for their weddings and other events.
