For well over a year my husband and I kept talking about how we wanted to have great drinks, top-notch food, and fantastic music at our wedding reception. Our venue recommended Beat Train as a preferred vendor, and we loved that we were able to listen to mixes from various DJs, through which we quickly honed in on Allie Rivera. During the lead-up to our day, Allie was super accommodating and was able to make sense of our vision, which was not an easy feat given our diverse music tastes. When the day of the reception came, she outperformed all our hopes for the day. For weeks after, our guests kept raving about the music and energy that she brought to the dance floor. She is the only DJ we could envision hiring for future events and we would highly recommend her to anyone!
We hired Allie at Beat Train and I could not have been happier. She was so pleasant to work with. My husband and I are huge music people- I am an indoor cycling instructor so music is a huge part of my life. I had very specific songs I wanted and a VERY long list of songs I didn’t want at all (5 hours worth). Allie was so amazing at really crafting a playlist that flowed with the energy of the party and even interject songs that I thought of along the way that I wanted to hear. My husband originally wanted ME to put together a Spotify playlist and we could change it as the night went on- which …. absolutely not. When she said that we could have as little or as much control over the music as we wanted and he listened to her mixes- he was sold. Allie was a HUGE HIT.
Allie was an absolute legend as the DJ of our wedding. Working with her before the event, I felt very comfortable that she understood the tone and music we were going for, and she definitely delivered. People were on the dance floor immediately and there was never a lull during the night of people not dancing. I also had several guests come up to me (from those in their 60s to 16yr olds) to say how much they loved the remixes Allie played during the night.
Loved the entire experience with Beat Train from start to finish. 1) You can go to their website and listen to sample mixes of all their DJs upfront. Many other vendors require you to fill out a form so they can sell you before you get a sense of their DJs 2) They’re very organized, have some forms for you to fill out to help the DJ get a sense of your musical style (you can provide as much or little feedback as you want) Allie was the best to work with, she totally got a sense of our tastes and pulled that into the night. We got so much great feedback from our guests (including my parents) on how good the music was. She kept the dance floor packed for a full 4 hours!
Working with Beat Train was easy from the start, and we couldn’t have enjoyed working with DJ Allie more. She played everything we could have wanted and more, managed transitions smoothly and kept the vibes perfect the entire night. Loved her, highly recommend!
Allie Rivera with Beat Train DJ’s was a fabulous addition to our corporate event. Allie is incredibly professional. She met with me before the event to gain a better understanding of the attendees and what type of music we were wanting. She communicated and coordinated all day of logistics with me and the venue coordinator and day of she was amazing. She really created such a fun and energizing atmosphere during our rooftop cocktail hour. Our event would not have been as fun without her providing the jams. I would highly recommend.
My wife and I worked with DJ Allie Rivera, and she was incredible. She took great care to make sure she understood our vision, vibe, and overall taste in music. I couldn’t have asked for a better DJ experience.
Allie was the absolute best! She was the DJ at my daughter’s Bat Mitzvah party this past May and got absolutely everyone out on the dance floor from the elementary school-age cousins, to the Bat Mitzvah girl and her friends, to the parent generation and even the grandparents. Everyone had the most amazing time. Allie had as much fun as we did and was a joy to work with.
I was incredibly happy having Allie as my DJ. I had a birthday with just girlfriends and she crushed it. Allie is so upbeat and energetic. She was a pleasure to work with and everyone at the party loved her. She played all the music I requests and totally got the vibe of the party. I highly recommend Allie for your next party!
Allie really helped make our wedding an exciting and memorable experience for us and our guests. She also super helpful in the planning leading up to the event, learning about our preferences and tastes to make it exactly the event we wanted. She made the process easy, which is great because there’s a lot of other stuff you can be worrying about while planning.
Allie was an absolute pro to work with! She DJ’d an upscale party we held for a client and nailed the music and vibe we needed. She was communicative and a joy to work with, answering any technical questions we had and going above and beyond to make sure our event was a success.
OMG!!!! Allie Rivera of Beat Train was THE BEST! We had so many people come up to us and mention what a great DJ she was. She was so warm, energetic, organized and professional throughout the whole process, she stuck to our do not play and preferred playlist, and wasn’t corny at all through all of the announcements in the whole wedding.
Beat Train was also really professional and responsive company — they helped match us with Allie based on a quiz we took asking about our music tastes. It was a really seamless process, and I can’t imagine our wedding without her!! Highly recommend!!
We recently hired Allie to DJ our Adirondack wedding in August. From the moment we met Allie over zoom we knew we wanted to work with her! She has great energy and a fun, positive, easy going attitude. We found her extremely helpful and responsive during the planning process and she seamlessly worked into our big day. Allie was the perfect MC and did an amazing job creating our wedding playlist and keeping everyone on the dance floor. Guests are still coming up to us saying how fun our wedding was and how much they loved Allie! We could not recommend her enough!
We worked with Allie, who was responsive, professional and very easy to work with. She was sensitive to all of our preferences and requests and did a fantastic job incorporating everything as we requested. Highly recommend working with her.
