We hired DJ Brendan Lau for our wedding in Gloucester in July 2023. Having been guests at many weddings, we knew what we definitely didn’t want, but finding what we did want felt challenging. The best thing that happened to our wedding was DJ Brendan. We *cannot* say enough good things about him. Months later, we still have friends bringing up our wedding DJ in everyday conversation. Brendan’s commitment and skill likely surpasses weddings, but we are so thankful we had the opportunity to work with him. Brendan met with us multiple times leading up to our wedding to make sure he understood our likes/dislikes, the vibe we were going for, and what we hoped for from our DJ. Brendan far exceeded our expectations. Once the dance floor opened, we never left–there was no time! His mixes were so seamless and allowed just enough of each song to be amped that the song was playing, time to enjoy it and dance, and then before you could blink another banger was on. He hit the nail on the head for our wedding. Not to mention, it seemed like he was having fun, too and truly brought the perfect energy. We’d never been to a wedding with such an amazing DJ and think everyone should hire him. DJ Brendan Lau was a highlight, if not the best part of our wedding.
We are so grateful that we booked Brendan as our wedding DJ! From the very first meeting, Brendan was professional, attentive, and fun. He completely understood our vibe and made the entire process seamless, guiding us through the music planning form and offering great advice. On the day of the wedding, Brendan DELIVERED! We received multiple compliments the night of and the morning after (and since!) about the music. Several of our friends said it was the best wedding DJ they’d ever seen. Not a bad song was played! We can’t recommend Brendan highly enough.
Wow, DJ Brendan brought our wedding to the next level. When we first connected with Brendan, we were immediately impressed by how engaged and professional he was. Very easy-going and adaptable but still able to provide a level of guidance that put us at ease. He interviewed us about what type of music we liked and what we wanted the vibe to be at the wedding. Even after we told him our favorite types of music were 80s and Emo Punk Rock, he still found a way to expertly craft a set that kept guests of all ages on the dance floor all night long! Quote from a guest who doesn’t dance: “Wow, this DJ’s editing is unbelievable. I can’t believe how he is weaving all these songs and genres together.” Quote from a guest who dances/clubs constantly: “I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW GOOD THIS DJ IS. LIKE HE IS UNREAL.” [This guest tipped Brendan independently at the end of the night as a token of genuine appreciation] All this to say, we highly recommend DJ Brendan for your wedding or any event, really. So easy to work with leading up to the wedding (including check-ins by text) and a flawless operator on the big day.
Awesome experience. We had 2 more weddings 2 weekends after our wedding. Our playlist from Brendan Lau was “songs you could dance to” according to the Best Man of other wedding #1. The DJ of Other Wedding #2 apparently didn’t have consistency in flow and music, and this DJ couldn’t get as many guests onto the dancefloor as Brendan could. I enjoyed it very much and Brendan was wonderful. He tried and succeeded in de-stressing my wife and I before our big day. Would definitely recommend!
Brendan Lau was our DJ and we could not have been more happy with him! We really wanted to find someone who understood our taste and could take creative control. Brendan knocked it lit of the park and had all our guests dancing the entire night. He knew how to read a room, understood the crowd and kept the party going. He used our inspiration lists and added his own flare. We’re so grateful to have worked with Brendan and would recommend him to anyone we know!
DJ Brendan Lau rocks! Our whole experience with Beat Train Productions was awesome! We were hesitant to go with a DJ but couldn’t afford a band and we did not regret our decision at all. They were affordable and listened to all of our musical wants and needs. Brendan, in particular, was amazing! He worked with us remotely up until the week of the wedding and then when we dropped off the face of the earth in the days leading up to the big day, he took control with very little guidance. We didn’t even meet him until after the ceremony but with a small amount of help from some of our guests he set up and did it all. We were soooo thankful for his independence and professionalism! He didn’t play EVERY song we asked for which would be our one complaint but honestly, the dance floor was NEVER EMPTY! Considering he is relatively new to Beat Train, Brendan has an awesome career ahead. There should be no hesitation in working with Beat Train and if you’re lucky enough to get Brendan, you’re lucky enough!
DJ Brendan Lau was the best DJ you could possibly have, especially for a zillennial wedding. He knew what we wanted for music better than we knew ourselves – he took our short playlist we sent him so he could get the vibe and elevated it to a whole new level. In addition, he communicated well with our photographer to flip some of our plan to ensure we stayed on schedule. It was a non-stop party because he read the room so well. We got so many compliments from guests of all ages, could not recommend him more.
I and a fellow member of our college reunion planning committee were tasked with finding a DJ for our 25th college reunion. I reached out to my cousins (who were experienced DJs) to see if they had any leads. One of their colleagues recommended Beat Train. I visited their site, provided a few details about the event and what they were looking for and they came back to us with a few options. My partner and I listened to the mixes and decided Brendan Lau was the way to go. And we were very happy with our choice.
Steady communication with the main office helped us stick to our timeline and ensured the contract was accurate and the musical planning with Brendan both online and via Zoom allowed us to review our expectations and tastes. They were very responsive and thorough.
When the actual event rolled around, Brendan did a great job. He played a wide array of dance hits from different genres that appealed to the varied musical tastes of our attendees. He kept the dance floor packed and we received several compliments on his ability to keep the party rocking way past bedtime. We had a blast! Highly recommended.
Our experience with Beat Train Productions – and with DJ Brendan Lau specifically – was exceptional. From our first call, he put us at ease. Everything about Brendan was fabulous – he was professional, he understood our vibe, he inspired confidence, amd most important f all, he did a GREAT job dj-ing our wedding. The dance floor was full and everybody had a great time. Five stars for Beat Train productions!
DJ Brendan was awesome! He was organized, professional, and provided amazing music for our guests. We hosted a Law School reunion, and I can’t remember the last time I saw adults get down on the dancefloor as they did during the night of our event. DJ Brendan really read the room and provided a mix that was perfect for our guests – we didn’t have enough space on the dancefloor for everyone who wanted to dance! Leading up to our event, DJ Brendan was quick to respond by email and always sent a recap of the discussions we had on the phone to be sure we were both on the same page. He also arrived with plenty of time to get set up in the venue space. I was very happy with his service.
We had a great experience with Beat Train productions. Brendan was easy to work with and kept everyone on the dance floor the entire night. We wanted a DJ who didn’t have a big ego and Brendan rarely used the mic and centered the music and dancing, which is exactly what we wanted. Beat Train has a really organized system to help you select songs so the evening runs smoothly.
Brendan was the DJ for our organization’s annual ball. He was flexible and communicative with our team in the weeks leading up to the event, especially with organizing the numerous song requests that our guests had submitted beforehand. On the night of the event, he did a great job integrating different genres of music while keeping the energy and excitement up! The flow between songs was seamless. Our guests loved the dance portion of the event, and Brendan was a major part of that. He worked alongside our team to make sure that everyone was having a good time!
Brendan is great to work with! His fun-loving personality can be heard in his knack for groovy beats and head-bopping sound selections. Not only is he a talented DJ, producer, and mix/master engineer, but I find that I’m always learning something valuable about music when I’m around him. Brendan is someone with undeniable expertise. His DJ mixes are a blend of eclectic remixes and popular tunes with infectious energy that get the whole room on the dance floor. The vibe of my party is always in good hands with Brendan on the turntables.
I’ve had a fabulous experience working with Brendan. He is expertly communicative, clear, friendly, and responsive; making my vision a reality and always finding ways to adapt and adjust to my needs and wants. I’ve worked with Brendan a handful of times now and his holistic knowledge of music and ability to adapt and execute under pressure make him a no-brainer for anyone else looking to hire Brendan for their event!
