About DJ Kerem

I am a New Orleans, Louisiana-based DJ specializing in weddings of all sizes and varieties. As an industry professional with over 10 years of experience, I pride myself on an extensive knowledge of music, offering my clients an endless library of tunes to choose from for their special occasions. I allow couples to be as hands-on or as hands-off as they like in the process of selecting the perfect music for their wedding night, and I can guarantee excellent results regardless.

Experience

I’ve been rocking the decks since 2012, starting from humble beginnings performing at house parties and dive bars. Since then, my musical journey has taken me to festivals where I’ve played alongside world-famous DJs, to residencies at the Virgin Hotel and Kimpton Hotel Fontenot, and to dozens of weddings where I’ve brought the house down as DJ and MC. Sharing music and joy is my true passion, and I feel so fortunate to be on this path. I’m proud of my reputation as a reliable and versatile purveyor of the freshest and funkiest beats, all over the state of Louisiana.

Services Offered

All of my packages include 3+ hours of DJ/MC services, a world-class sound system, wireless microphones, and free consultations on music preferences in the run-up to the wedding. My proprietary form for collecting music preferences makes the dynamic between couples and myself a true collaboration that is seamless and fun every step of the way.

No wedding venue is too small or large for my services, and I am happy to work in lockstep with couples to ensure that we find the perfect audio solution for your event. I am happy to service ceremonies, cocktail hours, dinners, and, of course, dance parties!

I am proud to offer my services to folks from underrepresented and marginalized communities such as LGBTQ+ couples and people of color. As a DJ, I place a lot of value on inclusiveness and diversity, and I bring the same approach to weddings!

Who I am

When I'm not busy DJing, I enjoy hanging out with my tiny chihuahua-terrier Roy, eating Thai food, playing music with my band, and parading with my Mardi Gras krewe Interrobang. I grew up in Istanbul and Florida, and I definitely feel this cross-cultural upbringing informs much about my worldview — including how I approach DJing!
