About

I am not your "average wedding DJ"...or a lame human jukebox...

I bring contagious energy, classy style, and shine to all weddings! I have almost 20 years of versatile DJ/Event Host experience which helps me enhance each wedding experience to make it feel fresh, creative, fun, and personalized.

My ability to seamlessly mix music and engage the crowd makes sure a dance floor never sleeps and stays vibrant. I love to build a long-lasting relationship with my couples and listen to what you want so that I understand your vision and ensure your special day has a unique vibe.

I am based in Columbus, Ohio but also do destination weddings and events!

Can't wait to meet with you and talk about how I can help create a personalized wedding music soundtrack! ...after all, if the music is good, you DANCE.

Best DJ! Amazing professional

We loved DJ Dayna! We have been to a few weddings since ours, and all we can think about is how great Dayna was! She listened to us and delivered on all our requests. She was professional, kind, and really knew how to keep a dance floor moving. You will not find a better DJ!

Flexible, creative and overall THE BEST!

We met DJ Dayna back in 2019 while we were planning for our 2020 wedding. Obviously May 2020 wedding didn't work because of COVID. We postponed an entire year, but COVID was still affecting our full wedding vision. We decided to change venues and created a backyard wedding in an entirely different city. DJ Dayna was able to travel with us and made it work.

She is so creative. She is a progressive DJ who is able to read the crowd and get people moving. We've all been to weddings where one song is played for a little too long, or one song is just a dud and no one is dancing. She knows how to prevent the awkwardness of guests just sitting around and staring at each other. She knows how to truly DJ and keep the music flowing. She was very professional. She listened to us and didn't play silly requests. She creating an awesome atmosphere for us and turned the night into a big party! She is reasonable, knowledgeable and really knows how to do her job!

I know sometimes people want to cut corners and save money while planning their wedding. I get that! However, I suggest NOT cutting corners with a DJ. They create the atmosphere for your wedding and could potentially create a horrible memory. DJ Dayna made our entire night. She is worth every penny and I'm so glad we spent the money on her. I would suggest her to anyone who asks!

Awesome choice

Dj Dayna was our choice for our daughters wedding reception and we were very pleased with everything she provided and added to our daughters reception. The music was great and the pacing and volume was perfect! An added bonus was the pyrotechnics and drummer!
I highly recommend both! The drummer brought an added piece to the music that everyone loved!
She is very professional in all she does and so easy to work with. We didn't want the night to end and she was a large part of everything going perfectly!

The best dj

DJ Dayna was hands down one of the BEST vendors that we selected for our wedding. She was professional, energetic, and full of amazing suggestions for our wedding reception! Our guests were blown away with her ability to keep the dance floor constantly filled and her flawless music transitions. We provided her with a few must-have songs and then she created such a fantastic playlist for us. She was an absolute joy to work with and we would book her again in a heartbeat!

Amazing!

Dayna was amazing from day 1! From the moment I contacted her to inquire about her services to the day of my wedding, she was extremely kind, energetic, outgoing, and easy to work with! We had a few FaceTime meetings to discuss what I was looking for, and she delivered above my standards!! She was the perfect MC and DJ for my wedding! She played everything we had discussed and even took requests from my guests! Lastly, I had briefly mentioned that I wanted a violinist for my ceremony but wasn’t sure where to look, and she instantly gave me a referral (who we ended up booking)! They even did a collaboration together for my cocktail hour! All my guests thought it was AMAZING and very unique! I highly recommend booking DJ Dayna for your event!

Ideal Wedding DJ

When we originally started planning our wedding I knew that entertainment was one of our top priorities. Being a music lover and always envisioning a specific "wedding day vibe", I was really looking for a DJ who would cater to our music preferences while making it their own. DJ Dayna did just that. She truly elevated our small but lively wedding. She strongly took into consideration our preferences and curated a perfect evening of music while balancing what the crowd wanted. If music entertainment is important to you on your big day I would highly recommend Dayna - she is incredibly professional and will no doubt add a positive light to your day!

absolutely wonderful to work with!

DJ Dayna was THE BEST. Easily the easiest vendor to work with out of everyone. She managed our sound system for our outdoor ceremony (where we had live music) and I never even had to talk to her about it; she took care of everything with my planner. Dayna had us fill out a form that covered everything from the song being played while we cut the cake to how our wedding party was announced. We also had a Zoom call (Covid) to chat with her pre-wedding. She is the absolute sweetest (and coolest) and everyone LOVED her at the wedding. A venue staff member even commented how it was the best party he had ever seen, and it was in large part thanks to Dayna. I could sing her praises forever!

Helpful, fun, and a great experience.

Dayna with us multiple times to make sure that our needs were met. We had a very easy time coordinating with Dayna and everything went smoothly with her during the wedding and the reception. She was flexible during the reception and took requests and made the entire set flow very well. She also made suggestions to help with our lighting decisions and we were extremely happy with the result. We highly recommend her services and were extremely satisfied. All of our guests had a great time and multiple people were asking for the set list.
