We recently had the pleasure of hiring DJ Mike (from C Squared Events) -- he truly exceeded our expectations and brought an incredible level of fun and excitement to our special day. From the moment we began working with him, it was evident that he was not only a talented DJ but also a collaborative and communicative professional.

One of the aspects that impressed us the most was his communication and collaborative process. He played a fantastic selection of our requested songs, ensuring that our personal touch was present throughout the event. Additionally, he added his own unique flair to the mix, introducing unexpected and energetic tracks that perfectly complemented the atmosphere.

But what best sets Mike apart was his ability to expertly read the crowd and keep everyone on their feet. He seamlessly transitioned between different genres and tempos, ensuring that the dance floor was constantly buzzing with excitement. It was remarkable to witness how effortlessly he adapted his set to suit the energy of the crowd, maintaining a lively and vibrant atmosphere throughout the entire night (especially when we went to our venue's barrel room -- things got WILD and Mike kept the vibe strong)

Furthermore, his professionalism and enthusiasm were evident in every interaction. He was always open to suggestions, readily offering his expertise and advice whenever we needed it. His attention to detail and thorough planning ensured that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy our celebration without worrying about the music.

10 out of 10 recommend C Squared and DJ Mike!

Mike was the DJ and MC for our ceremony and reception, he provided up-lighting, and a photobooth and we truly could not have asked for a better person to have done those jobs! From our first meeting with Mike we could tell he had a chill personality and a great passion and knowledge of music and all things weddings. On our meeting before our wedding, we met with Mike over zoom for over an hour and he made us feel less stressed about the overall wedding planning as he was able to answer questions we had about the timeline, processional order, and song selections for every part of the day. He also did not rush to get off the meeting, he took his time to ensure he understood what we had envisioned for the day and that he would be able to help make sure our wedding vision came to fruition. We also asked him to pick the first and last song of the day and he was excited to do so (spoiler alert, he picked a great one). The day of, working with Mike seemed like working with an old friend. He was very chill and remembered everything we envisioned. He was also a great protector of the timeline and kept things moving and was able to make great suggestions when things started to run late. Mike did an amazing job keeping the guests attention and stepping aside to make sure the attention was on my husband and I. Mike also did a terrific job of reading the room and playing the right songs to keep the most amount of guests dancing and also stuck to our song requests on the do not play list, the must play list, and our favorite genres. Additionally the lighting and photobooth were very professional. Lastly, after our wedding we received numerous compliments for the DJ and dancing. Numerous guests told us this was their favorite wedding and we attribute a lot of that to Mike.

In conclusion, TLDR; book with Mike if you want to sleep easy knowing you will have a DJ who will play the songs you and your partner love, songs your guests will love, and who will be a timeline and wedding vision advocate for you. Book with Mike if you want to work with someone who will go above and beyond, not because he has to, but because he wants to. Book with Mike if you want the best DJ/MC in Southern California for an affordable price.

Mike was such a pleasure to work with for our wedding! He is charismatic and knows exactly what to play to get the party going all night! Ahead of our event we had a couple of calls to organize requested songs, lighting choices, and photobooth options. He helped us with great suggestions/ideas that made a huge difference on our wedding day. I highly recommend Mike and his team for any event!
