Look no further because DJ Natty Heavy is the BEST DJ in town. Played all the songs we discussed and had everyone on the dance floor from start to finish. One of the nicest and funniest human beings too! Thank you for taking our wedding reception to the next level and for being the best dj ever at a wedding. We are now looking into throwing some annual party at our house and having you be the DJ.
March 2022
The music was one of the most important aspects of our wedding. It’s basically what we cared about the most, because let’s be real the music is what MAKES a wedding fun. DJ Natty Heavy blew it out of the water. I cannot even explain how packed and fun our dance floor was. He is a phenomenal DJ and I would book him for every event I host for the rest of the my life. I’m serious.

We traveled from CA to SC to get married, we couldn’t be happier we did. EVERYONE danced all night long! It was exactly what we pictured and wanted, and wouldn’t have been that way without him. He also did such a great job with transitions between songs, introductions and announcements. Everyone we talk to about the wedding says we had the best DJ ever.
