"LaRue MADE our wedding! From the moment we stepped onto the dance floor, it was non-stop energy. He read the room perfectly-our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. If you want a DJ who truly knows how to create a vibe, Hurricane LaRue is it!
"We were super picky about music because we wanted a mix of classics, R&B, and some Caribbean vibes-and LaRue delivered beyond our expectations. He kept everyone-from our grandparents to our friends-on the dance floor all night. Professional, flexible, and knows how to throw a party!"
"From the ceremony to the last song, Hurricane LaRue was flawless. He handled all the little details we didn't even think about, like timing the music perfectly for our entrances. The reception was insane-in the best way possible. Our wedding felt like US, and that's because of LaRue's talent."
"Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding was booking Hurricane LaRue. He was easy to work with, super responsive, and when it came to the big day-he brought the PARTY. The dance floor was packed all night. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for an unforgettable night."
