Persian Wedding DJ in New York City
Aghd to after-party — a DJ who knows the Persian wedding inside out, in New York City.
A Persian wedding is two celebrations in one — the elegance of the Aghd and the all-out energy of the reception — and it takes a DJ who understands both. The New York metro's Iranian-American community spans Long Island and the tri-state area, with a calendar of large, high-production Persian weddings.
Deejay AL reads a Persian room the way it needs to be read: the right tempo for the sofreh and Aghd, the classic 6/8 and Bandari that fill the floor, the Persian pop the aunties and uncles are waiting for, and the open-format Top 40, house, and hip-hop that keep the younger crowd dancing until the lights come up. Based in San Diego with a Las Vegas residency in the Tao Group family of venues, Al travels for the right celebration. Serving the five boroughs plus Long Island, Westchester, and northern New Jersey — including Long Island, Westchester, Jersey City — for weddings of every size.
