At the early age of 15, Sal decided he had a love for music and entertaining people. So, he bought a couple of crates of records and some turntables... and the rest is history. Working as a DJ for another company and working his way up to sales manager and lead Emcee, Sal felt it was finally time to try something on his own. At age 21, he opened Magic Moments in 1998. For the past 16 years, Sal has performed at over 2,000 events, and still has the passion to make the dance floor packed the entire night. Yes, things have changed. The crates of records have evolved into dramatic intelligent light shows, plasma televisions, computerized sound systems, and so much more.
Starting this company from the ground up was a challenge, but Sal's commitment to success has paid off. Magic Moments is now recommended at only the finest of catering halls with great pride. His hopes are to continue the trend of making every client 100% satisfied with the excellent team of Emcees, DJ's, party motivators, and light technicians that he has personally put together. Hurry though, his dates are limited!
Many of our happy clients include Wyclef Jean, hit artist Jay Sean, Brandon Jacobs of The New York Giants, and many more. Sal has been featured on Whose Wedding is it Anyway on Style Network and Be My Wedding Guest on TLC.
