Zolz Entertainment

We recently got married and chose Zolz Entertainment as our DJ. We were lucky enough to have Rick Zolz himself DJ our day. He was great. From the wedding intros to the last dance Zolz made our day fantastic. All of our guests enjoyed our wedding tremendously. I would recommend Zolz Entertainment to anyone looking for a great DJ!!

Zolz crushed it! He kept our dance floor packed the entire night! We met with him before the wedding to discuss how we wanted the reception to flow and he was extremely professional and respectful of our requests for what we did and didn’t want played at our wedding. He surveyed the crowd to adapt and adjust our playlist so that our guests had a blast on the dance floor. We can’t say enough great things about Zolz and his team. Thank you for helping to make our wedding a dream come true! More...

Rick and his team are the absolute best! He played a huge role in making our day really special. He was so flexible and saved me when my initial ceremony music plans fell through. He communicated with me throughout the whole night and made sure I was happy with everything, modifying anything as needed. He organized a musical chairs game during some down time that captured everyones attention, where guests were either playing or out of their seats watching and laughing. It was such a blast! He is the number one compliment that I receive when people reminisce about my wedding. I couldn't have imagined a better team and person to give us, and our guests, such great memories. More...

I couldn’t have picked a better DJ for our wedding day. I was a little hesitant at first being that he was friends with my dad and the same age! But we sat together to talk about what my vision of the dance floor would be like and he made that come true. His energy was awesome and he had everyone out on the dance floor having a blast. I’m so glad we chose Zolz to get the party going at our wedding. We still hear about how much fun our friends and family had! More...

I met Rick Zolzer in 2001 at a wedding expo being held at the venue I had my eye one. The instant I spoke with him was the instant I knew what the best part of the wedding was gonna be! ! He was outgoing, super accommodating and was up for anything!! The dance floor was never empty and still one of the highlights all our friends and family talked about afterwards was how great the DJ was! Side bonus, he’s hilarious!! Our photographer was some old guy my mother picked and frankly was annoying but Rick had us cracking up and stress free the entire evening! Our oldest son and our niece were our ring bearer and flower girl which leads me to the next part of this story.
Fast forward 14 years... When said niece got engaged in 2015, we asked her if she had any ideas about a DJ and asked if she remembered Rick.
We’ve followed him through his career during the years on WPDH, as the NJ NETS announcer, Army Football announcer, ESPN Radio and currently still VP of the Hudson Valley Renegades Minor League baseball team (and still finds the time to DJ!!). She said “Yes” and we put a big red bow on Rick Zolzer Entertainment (figuratively speaking of course) and gifted Rick’s services to our niece and soon-to-be husband.
When I got in touch with him he thought it was so awesome he was “being gifted”!! He was still the hilarious and super accommodating guy I had done business with 14 years prior. Excellent communication and met my niece and new nephew’s every request.
Trust me, you WILL NOT REGRET choosing Zolz Entertainment! More...

Zolz is an awesome DJ! He made our wedding super fun getting everyone involved on the dance floor and he kept us laughing all night!

I was married on New Year's Eve at the Dutchess Manor 2015 to my high school sweetheart from 30 years ago. Ringing in the new year not only was an anniversary celebration, but a remembrance of that special night. People are still talking about it... and that's what you want! I am dating myself when I tell you that Rick Zolzer dj'd my Sweet Sixteen in 1986... and my first wedding! So this was my third time hiring him... and I knew what I was in for :-) I've got experience with getting married lol, so believe me when I tell you... the most important vendor you hire is your DJ. I'm all for live music when I'm out in Beacon having a glass of wine with my husband... but at your wedding, you don't want any "breaks." So hands down, a DJ is the way to go... the rhythm of the night is consistent when you do this. There were A LOT of moving parts to my wedding. First off - it was New Year's Eve... so people are looking to have a great time! On top of that, we were married at the venue in one room... the cocktail party in another... and the reception in the final ballroom. I needed Rick to play music in all three spots. Without breaking down equipment and disrupting my wedding. No problem. He is professional... ALWAYS EARLY... always has a back up plan for emergencies... knows all the venues and their staff... strategic balances his time on the mic without being intrusive... and keeps the dance floor packed. The only reason he received a 4.5 Stars on Flexibility is because he is booked far in advance! In terms of flexibility at the event... 5/5... no one improvises better than Zolz. You have to figure out what's important to you when planning your wedding. Years later, no one will remember the food, the favor or sometimes even the location... but they certainly will remember if they had a blast and never sat down. Zolz is the man... xo More...

Zolz was the perfect addition to our 2012 wedding! He was funny, courteous, professional, and most importantly provided our guests with an amazing time. People who we thought would never be dancing got up and danced. We were concerned because our guest list was on the "older" side, but he made sure he played music that every generation would enjoy...and they did! More...

My wedding was absolutely perfect thanks to having Zolz there! A DJ is one of the most important things at a wedding and with this company, I was not disappointed. My wedding was huge and almost everyone was on the dance floor at one point or another thanks to the music playing. It was an amazing night that I’m sure everyone will be talking about for quite some time. More...

I was recommended to use Zolz Entertainment by a friend and I will be forever grateful for that recommendation. Zolz was a great guy and easy to communicate with. His music selection was off the chains and had my great aunt on the dance floor with her cane! I had an amazing night thanks to amazing music and wouldn’t have it any other way with any other DJ.

Holy cow, where do I begin?!

First off, I was recommended to Zolz by a co-worker because I told them I wanted the best DJ in my region (I'm from Rosendale, NY).

I didn't have transportation at the time so I was extremely worried when my friend told me he was location in Hyde Park. A lot of other companies needed to meet in person and wouldn't do anything for me until I did. But that wasn't the case at all with Zolz. We communicate through email and a couple phone calls. The contract was straight forward and was a breeze to get back to him.

On the day of the event, he was completely professional. He allowed me to choose from a large number of songs which was great because my family and friends that were there were had very eclectic music backgrounds. Everyone, even my great aunt with her cane, was out on the dance floor!

I would ABSOLUTELY recommend anyone in the area choosing Zolz Entertainment. Rick was a pleasure to work with and his assistants do a fantastic job! More...

When it came to finding a DJ, I knew I wanted someone who was going to make mine and my husband's day perfect. Zolz Entertainment did more than that. I haven't heard one complaint from any of my guests from that night! He kept the dance floor packed from the end of the cocktail hour until the last few stragglers moseyed on out of the venue. But that wasn't even the nicest part: I planned this day with him from over 900 miles away!

He was quick with his responses via email and phone calls. I never had a problem with special requests. I provided with a list of songs and the music for our ceremony and he was able to melt it all together perfectly.

If you want a DJ who's going to blow your mind and make your night awesome, I wouldn't choose anyone else in the area. Rick Zolzer runs an awesome company and makes weddings phenomenal. More...

Everyone that has planned a wedding knows that it can be an overwhelming and stressful experience. Thanks to Zolz Entertainment the entertainment was the easiest part. Zolz was easy to get in contact with and was very accommodating concerning our song requests. He and his team arrived at the hall early to ensure that everything would run smoothly. The night was beautiful and Zolz and his staff kept everyone on their feet dancing and having a good time! If you are looking for a fun and reliable DJ I would definitely recommend booking Zolz Entertainment. More...

One word to describe... OUTSTANDING! Couldn't have asked for a more memorable and exciting wedding thanks to Zolz Entertainment. Zolz kept everyone on the dance floor all night and the music was spot on. He is so easy to work with and a funny guy! If we could do it all over again we would use Zolz in a heartbeat. I would recommend him to any couple who is looking for a great DJ who knows what he is doing! Thank you Zolz for giving me a night my husband Peter and I will never, ever forget. More...

When we choose Zolz for our wedding was going to be a blast! Everyone knows, without good entertainment, a wedding can be nothing more than a glorified dinner party for family and friends.

Planning a wedding out of town can be nerve racking and the whole process was streamed lined and very easily accomplished. Everything was coordinated via email and phone calls.

On the day of the wedding, Zolz and his team were professional and did a wonderful job of incorporating all of our requests. Zolz did not have a problem making adjustments, as I opted against a garter/bouquet toss, instead recognizing all the wedding milestones in the room. He was well prepared, had fair pricing, played all our requested music and more! The most difficult obstacle was choosing our music!

Not only did Zolz make my wedding day extra special with music, but my family and I created a wonderful bond. We would highly recommend him to our family and friends and to anyone looking for entertainment. More...

Zolz Entertainment provided our DJ services for our wedding which was beyond anything I could've hoped for! Planning our wedding was extremely stressful and ran into many problems and hiccups, except for the entertainment. Rick helped me to customize our music to announce our bridal party, responded to all my calls and emails about music requests and other questions, and was extremely reassuring to my concerns. Zolz Entertainment helped to make our wedding a night one to remember. It can be difficult to get guests off their seats and to the dance floor, but Zolz did it with ease by setting up some icebreaker games. From there not a single person was sitting. He took requests from guests and managed to please a large crowd of 225 guests. Zolz and his team are upbeat, high energy, and super fun. A guaranteed good time and would recommend to any wedding planning couples! More...

Zolz Entertainment made our wedding fun and memorable. Once we booked our date with him, it was easy to contact with him and communicate our needs. He sent us our party packet and was able to add personal touches to our song requests and special events. The wedding was fabulous. The music played during our meal was not overbearing and once our guests were finished he involved the audience with games to get them on the dance floor. He played a variety of music that catered to peoples different tastes in music. Overall the wedding was fantastic and the Zolz Entertainment made our special day memorable. More...
