Awesome DJ

DJ Dais was extremely professional, polite, very accessible, and incredibly easy to work with. He made sure to ask all the appropriate questions, offered helpful suggestions, and got all details clarified prior to the wedding day, so we were reassured everything would go as planned. He kept the guests dancing all night and the games he hosted were super fun and memorable. I especially loved that he was able to make a song mash-up for us for our first dance. I initially made the edits myself through online tools, but he was able to make the final product much more smooth and polished. Highly recommend him for your wedding/event!

A great DJ and very easy to work with!

DJ Dais worked our wedding back in January and we couldn't be happier with the choice. From the day we reached out for a quote to the wedding day, DJ Dais was very friendly and very easy to work with. He was extremely communicative and was always available for a chat if we had any questions. And of course, he was a GREAT DJ on the wedding day and really kept in mind our song preferences but also put his own twist.

The best part is that for our dances (first dance, mother/son, and father/daughter), I asked DJ Dais to edit the songs to only specific parts so that the transitions could be smooth and he absolutely delivered. DJ Dais was a great pleasure to work with and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ!

Stop the search, this is your DJ!!

I barely write reviews, but DJ Dais HAD to get his credit!!! DJ Dais is absolutely WONDERFUL. Please stop searching and book him. He is kind, a GREAT listener, professional, valuable, accommodating, and a great DJ period. He was always there when we had questions, whether it was via email, text, or phone call, he was always there. As every normal wedding couple, we were stressed the last two days and DJ Dais made sure everything will run smoothly. He also helped us pick out a couple of songs and also helped brainstorm some. On the wedding day, he and his assistant made sure we were comfortable with how things were going, and always checked in on us about the timeline so we can all be on the same page. When we or our guest had a song to request, he tried his absolute best to make sure he can find it so we can have a good time! DJ Dais is just the DJ everyone hopes for on their wedding day, and the DJ that every bride needs because he's just so helpful and amazing!!!

DJ Dais is the Best!

My sister and I both hired DJ Dais for our weddings. Even with two completely different venues with different vibes and needs, he catered his services perfectly in each instance. He immediately got everyone on the dance floor, and played a great variety of music to suit everyone in the room. He caters to individual tastes very well, and provides excellent, quality service. The audio quality is excellent and he is very organized, timely, and professional. We loved having DJ Dais on our wedding day, he is great at getting everyone up and dancing!

We loved working with DJ Dais for our wedding! He was so easy to work with - responsive, nice, thorough, professional, and most of all, fun! We had a blast at our reception. We received so many compliments on the music, and our guests were dancing non-stop! He also provided nice lighting for our reception, and music for our ceremony. Everything went perfectly, and I would highly recommend DJ Dais to anyone who wants a FUN wedding!! :) ( And who doesn't?)

My husband & I could not have asked for a better wedding DJ!

From the very beginning, not only was he straightforward on his pricing and what services would be included in each package, but he also spent a great deal of time listening to what we wanted and asking us thought-provoking questions along the way to be certain that he delivered the exact experience that we wanted.

He was by far our most attentive vendor, taking the extra steps of 1) requesting a venue walk-through with us, 2) offering a touch-base phone call the week of the event for any of our questions/concerns, and 3) getting there early on the day-of to prepare his equipment. He is strategic and operational; however, he is also very good at explaining his work and making sure you understand how/ why he makes the decisions the way that he does.

A few weeks before the big day, we decided on the song for our Father-Daughter dance. Since it was lengthy and had a mix of slow and fast tempo, I asked DJ Dais for some advice on whether or not it would make sense to shorten it or scrap the idea altogether. 2 hours later, he sent me an audio file with a sample of his first try at shortening the song, and BAM it was perfect! No changes needed.

All of the music and MCing went very smoothly that day; he checked in with us a handful of times throughout the night to keep us on track and created a fun atmosphere for our guests. Near the end of the night I was pulled away from the dancefloor and returned right as one of my requested songs was ending – my friend quickly ran over and asked if he could play it again because the bride missed it and he immediately replayed it to my delight!

For most of the reception, it seemed like 90% of our guests were on the dancefloor, which we had always wanted. We have received so many praises from our guests about how fun the music was – well done!!! Would absolutely recommend and hire again for our future events

We hired DJ Dais for our wedding after he did such a great job at our friends' wedding. As my husband would say, "He kept the crowd as a nice, roiling boil." We had a great mix of classic and newer songs that pleased the whole crowd. He was great at helping us organize our timeline. He incorporated special things we wanted like a soul train dance tunnel. I called him just four days before our wedding to ask him to be in charge of the sound for our ceremony, and he stepped up and even ended up having to use his own equipment because something was wrong with what we provided. He's the ideal party DJ! Very professional, responsive, reasonably priced, and easy to work with.

Dais is a true professional. From the onset of our communication, Dais made sure to ask questions and listen to what was important to us on our wedding day. He came up with solutions for everything we wanted, set clear expectations on both ends, joined us at the venue to coordinate logistics, kept us on task, and made sure we had everything worked out well in advance.

On our actual wedding day, Dais was one of the first to arrive. He took care of all of the lighting and sound for the venue. Dais also managed the flow of the entire evening, providing smooth segues throughout every step of the event. When it was dance time, Dais showed the mastery of his craft on the turntables. His technical abilities are spot on and he's playful with his transitions between genres that probably shouldn't blend, but he makes it work so as to cater to a diverse audience.

Having Dais as our DJ, I realized how integral a part of a wedding event, a DJ really is. A professional, like Dais, does way more at a wedding than one would realize. Basically, if everything runs smoothly, it's because there's a pro running things behind the scenes like Dais does. I wasn't big on spending money on linens or flowers, but having someone to ensure that the event would flow perfectly, was an excellent investment that provided me and my wife with peace of mind on our big day.

Book DJ Dais! He is the reason our wedding was so much fun. People commented all night long (and after) how much fun they had and how much they loved our DJ. DJ Dais did another wedding in which I attended, so when it was my turn to get married I knew exactly who I wanted to have. He is seriously THE BEST! You won't get wrong with DJ Dais!

I worked with DJ Dais at a recent event at the Pantheon Mansion. He did an incredible job with the lighting, 2nd to none, and when the dance floor opened up he kept the music bumpin and guests were dancing late into the night. Good job Dais.
