Wedding Reception

We would 100% recommend Joel for any event! His energy is contagious and his personality is perfect for an MC/DJ. He worked with us to curate the perfect flow for cocktail hour, speeches, and the dance floor. He is thorough and thoughtful. The dancefloor was a main focus for our reception and what we were most excited for and Joel had our dancefloor PACKED the entire night! He is truly exceptional at what he does.

Reiner & Virginia's Vineyard Wedding

Joel was absolutely phenomenal and exceeded every expectation we had for a wedding DJ. From our very first phone call, we clicked right away and knew he was the right choice for us based on his positive energy, enthusiasm, and flexibility. He seamlessly handled both our ceremony and reception music, keeping everything flowing perfectly. Joel brought such great energy to the day, and his voice and presence as an emcee was engaging, lively, and not overbearing. His taste in music is fantastic—not only did he nail our must-play list, but he also added amazing songs in a similar style that fit the vibe perfectly. He created an incredible atmosphere that kept the dance floor full all night long, and many of our guests commented on how great the music was. We couldn’t recommend Joel more highly!

We cannot recommend Cali West DJs enough. From the very beginning, he was professional, organized, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process. He was responsive to our questions, thoughtful about our vision, and clearly experienced.

On the day of the event, he delivered. He did an excellent job reading the room and keeping the energy up all night. He created an amazing atmosphere and brought great vibes from start to finish. We are so grateful for his role in making our wedding such a fun and memorable celebration. Thank you Joel!

Great DJs and awesome communication!

Cali West DJs was great for our wedding! Joel was incredibly helpful and guided us through the process. The planning process was easy and detailed. The day of the wedding I didn't even have to think about the music, as it was all already handled by them. I would highly recommend!

Joel was amazing!

Joel was everything we could've ever asked for!!! His music selection was amazing! There were absolutely no technical issues, he even assisted with other vendors at our wedding. His questionnaire was very helpful, and allowed us to give him a picture of our selection, and the freedom to do what he does best.

All Around 10/10!!

We worked with Joel for our wedding in May and he was so awesome! Our initial call we got a really good vibe from him and knew he would do a great job. He always responded quickly, had great insight and advice, and most importantly, he kept our dance floor packed the whole night! I love that he’s also an excellent MC because it really helped our guests know what was happening/coming next and that made the day way smoother over all. Thank you Joel!!

Best wedding DJ!

We had the best experience with Joel! From start to finish, he was professional, easy to work with, and kept the energy going all night long. He played everything we wanted, read the crowd perfectly, and made sure the dance floor was never empty. The transitions were smooth, the song choices were spot-on, and everything ran on time. We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ to help us celebrate—highly recommend!

Joel To The Rescue

We are forever grateful that Joel agreed to take our wedding on last-minute! With just a few week's notice, he was able to put together an awesome day for us. We do not recommend putting your DJ search off until the last minute, but if you must, Joel is your guy! I'm not sure how he did it, but he created the perfect vibe with a brilliantly curated playlist, after only knowing us for a short amount of time. Thank you, Joel, for being a true professional and a master of your craft!

Joel is amazing! He was able to roll with the punches and make everyone have the best time ever!

We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ at our wedding. We had a lot of last minute changes and he was able to accommodate quickly and while wearing a smilie on his face. This guy knows how to start a party! If you have the opportunity to work with Joel….. DO IT!
