October 2019

“Cory Barron is a phenomenal DJ and really just an overall great person! As New Yorkers, finding the perfect DJ for our destination wedding in Florida was one of the most important aspects of planning our wedding. We wanted to find a DJ that would keep the party alive, without having to create our own playlist for the night. We ended up putting our full trust in Cory to choose the majority of our songs and he seriously did not let us down! Cory had our guests dancing the entire time and brought so much positive energy to our wedding! He even had one of our friends act as a “guest DJ” which was a ton of fun and such a good time!
From day one, Cory made sure that we had everything we ever wanted, which definitely went far beyond the music. He worked with us to find the perfect up-lighting for our venue and even provided a dance on the cloud effect for our first dance! He had a modern DJ booth which to our surprise, is not something that most other DJ companies had in the area. My husband and I cannot thank Cory enough for being a part of our special day. DJ Cory Barron & (the Tampa Bay DJ) Co. comes more than highly recommended and we are so grateful to have met him!!!!!! ”
