Ocean County & the Jersey Shore

Ocean County's Wedding DJ, MC & Photo Booth Team

Read more about our Ocean County wedding DJ & photo booth services

Planning a wedding in Ocean County means sorting through a lot of DJs who all promise the same thing. Dow Oak Events is different. We are a full-service wedding entertainment company out across the Garden State nearly every weekend, from grand ballrooms and historic estates to barn and vineyard venues across Ocean County and the Jersey Shore. DJ and MC, modern photo booths, custom lighting, and ceremony and cocktail sound, all from one team and one contract.

What sets us apart is not just the gear, it is how we run your night. Your DJ doubles as your MC, reading the room in real time, keeping your timeline on track, and making every announcement smooth instead of cheesy. Behind that is an online planning portal where you build your must-play and do-not-play lists, your timeline, and every detail, so nothing slips between booking and your big day.

And because your wedding only happens once, we built a safety net most companies cannot match: full-time salaried backup DJs on standby seven days a week, duplicate equipment on every setup, and your entire plan shared across our team. It is why thousands of New Jersey couples, from Toms River to LBI, have trusted us, and why we have earned more than 3,000 five-star reviews on The Knot, WeddingWire, and Google.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am a wedding coordinator with the team at R's Events and I have worked with Dow Oak Events. We shared a wedding at Highland Brewing Company in Asheville, NC. They checked in rather than waiting to be found. They paced the reception properly. Their team was courteous with my staff and the venue's. I would recommend them to any couple!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dj Angel is AMAZING! From the minute we started talking to him, we realized that he was going to be the perfect fit for our wedding. We told him who we were two outgoing fun millennials from New York who really love to party and Man did he deliver! He even mentioned during the phone call that we were completely his vibe. Every song on the must playlist was played, there was not one time during the four hours that I stepped off the dance floor for even a second. He kept the hits coming all night long. When I asked for the microphone to do Ludacris’s part during the song, baby, he did not hesitate. And when he played cut the mozzarella and saw the panic in my eyes as I was looking for my groom, he got on the microphone personally, got his attention, calling him to the dance floor and then restarted the song. His attention to every detail was on point, and when I got to the venue, he was the first vendor that I walked over to and said hi, 10/10 absolutely amazing
