Professional, Efficient and adapts to crowd

To start, Joe was a breath of fresh air in a stressful time. From the beginning he was professional, gave excellent tips and recommendations for the timeline and even for other aspects of the wedding. I am the sister of the groom organizing and coordinating the whole wedding and he really helped make this day special. The bride and groom danced the entire night until the very end because he followed their wishes exactly as asked. OUR FAVORITE PART: was that he was unassuming and subtle with carrying out the timeline. He didn't try to be in the Mic unless needed, making sure the bride and groom were center of attention and not him. Yet, he still managed to get everyone on the dance floor without being cheesy! the bride, groom and I highly recommend him. He also worked great with the vendors! Thanks Joe!!!

Truly Unbelievably Good!

Joe was amazing! He asked for some thoughts on what we liked and absolutely nailed who we were and what we were looking for. His music was completely on point at every stage of the wedding, even at times where we didn't think of tunes.

Utterly professional, easy to deal with and very subtle. I can't recommend him highly enough, people were talking about this wedding for weeks afterwards (actually they haven't stopped so far and it's making me wish we had a reason for another party (with Joe doing the honours)).

Seriously, he captured our tastes and the flow of the wedding and the people perfectly. I really can't recommend him highly enough.

Fantastic wedding DJ!

Joe was a total class act. He was referred to us by our wedding planner. After a short conversation, we hired him on the spot.

Joe was very personable, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He worked with us and our family on a unique venue setup. We spoke to him on the phone about our song selections, which he was happy to accommodate.

Joe kept the party going all night with a wide variety of our favorite songs from R&B to Country and Classic Rock. We gave him a list of our favorite songs, and he filled in the rest seamlessly. His song selections were outstanding! Look no further for a central coast wedding DJ - we highly recommend using Joe.

Thank you, Joe, for making our wedding so memorable!

Exceeded our expectations!!

Joe was a pleasure to work with since he had so much experience he was able to swiftly grasp our wishes and sensitive enough to gauge the mood of our reception and make song selections based upon this. We and our guests had a fantastic time and we attribute this to our dj as well! He was a great help and were very thankful that we chose him!

A total pro!

We hired Joe for our wedding in San Luis Obispo (September 2018). Joe was incredibly professional, classy and the perfect choice for a fun wedding. We mostly gave him general ideas and music genres for the cocktail hour and reception, and he knew exactly what we wanted. Our guests raved about the song selection, which contributed greatly to the mood and energy of the celebration. Joe also provided the audio equipment for the ceremony. We didn't have a single glitch or problem with the microphones. The audio was flawless. We highly recommend Joe to anyone seeking a professional and fun DJ!

Joe is an amazing DJ. We wanted people on the dance floor and the dance floor was full until the lights had to come on. Joe was great to work with, he didn't play any of the songs we didn't want, he played our guests requested songs, and we danced all night. Highly recommended!

Thank you Joe!

Joe is the best there is and he is truly so much more than just a great DJ! We could not have pulled off our wedding without him. He has such a keen eye for literally every detail of the day and he helped us tremendously when it came to location of events, timeline, and setup. He has unmatched knowledge and expertise in making a wedding day fun and flow smoothly from start to finish. Our guests all had a blast on the dance floor. Joe knows how to keep the party going and quickly adjusts to anything that is thrown his way. You will not regret hiring Joe. There is no one better.

We had the pleasure of having Joe be our wedding DJ in June 2018 and we can’t recommend him enough! He is very professional, amazingly helpful, and understands the wedding flow very well. He took our song suggestions and created a great playlist that set the mood perfectly for each part of the evening. He was able to get our guests up and dancing and he wasn’t an intrusive MC. Joe responded quickly to all of our emails and had several conference calls to discuss the many important parts of our wedding. We couldn’t be happier to have had Joe as our DJ!
