    Joe knocked it out of the park

    Joe was super easy to work with, collaborative, and fun. He helped to make the day stress free by being prepared, handling MC duties, and having the flexibility to deal with last minute changes. We worked with him to narrow down our preferred style of music including must-plays and do-not-plays, and gave him the freedom to fill in the rest. He had great energy without being over the top. Definitely would recommend him to anyone looking for a dj.

    Created a great vibe

    We had a smaller wedding of 45 people of family and friends, and us ourselves weren't that big on dancing (and same goes with some friends) so we weren't too sure on a DJ even! But our planners highly recommended Joe and having a DJ and we don't regret it. He created a great vibe and got people dancing, and most importantly, having fun which was a big priority for us :)

    The best DJ for your Big Day!

    Joe DeBorba really knows how to throw a party! He was recommended by our wedding planner and we are so glad to have booked him. He is professional, fun and easy to work with. Planning our Big Day's soundtrack was a breeze and we enjoyed picking out songs on his wedding planner. I appreciate that he made sure to play as many of our requests as possible. We had such a diverse range of songs and he was able to integrate different genres seamlessly. Even the guests who aren't into dancing found themselves on the dance floor at some point! As an MC he did a good job at moving the program along and keeping the energy up. We highly recommend him to all couples. Thank you Joe!

    Best decision ever!!

    have had the pleasure of working with Joe, owner of DeBorba Events for the past 5 years as I am the owner of Events by Rebecca! I've been a wedding planner even longer than that. Quite frankly it was a no brainer to hire him for my very own wedding this January.

    Joe consistently blows me away wedding after wedding... successfully DJing an event is SOOOOO much more than running a playlist. It's guiding the client in the planning process making sure they don't miss a single moment to have a special song play - joe did this beyond my expectation. Even as a professional I forgot so many things that he was totally on top of!!...

    Joe is a true professional

    We were introduced to Joe by our wedding planner and we are so thankful we found him. Joe was one of the first vendors that we hired because music and a fun vibe were very important to us. We got so many compliments on how fun the dance floor at the wedding was which is exactly what we were hoping for. Joe was great to work with, professional and responsive. And his online portal was super easy to access and add songs to. He even helped us out with some fun uplighting to set the mood. Thank you, Joe!

    Professional dance wedding DJ, Emcee and all around great guy

    Start to finish Joe Debora didn't disappoint. Complete professionalism without any pushy sales pitch. Joe is there for the wedding couple. Clients can tell he enjoys working your wedding day and understands the role of being Emcee and DJ.
    Some highlights of what Deborba provided for our wedding
    -Transparent pricing/quote from the beginning
    -Necessary questions and details to determine what couple is looking for on their wedding day
    -Organized wedding planning website including a DJ portion where you can select songs from his library or manually enter in songs you wish to play
    -Professional lighting, sound and DJ booth. Audio was crisp! Extra up-lighting adds great touch.
    -Arrives early to set up and is completely independent but will...

    Professional, Organized Party Starter

    Booking DJ Joe DeBorba was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planing process. Organized, charming and professional - Joe kept our reception right on schedule.

    He asked for all the details in advance, everything from our timeline, what to play, what not to play and details on the speeches.

    Joe served as a wonderful emcee as well, introducing our toasts, announcing cake cutting and our important dances and finally kicking off the best dance party when he opened up the dance floor. My friends are still talking about the boogie wonderland that was my reception.

    We are huge fans of DJ Joe and his work! We cannot recommend Joe and his services enough. Hire him and your wedding, party, or event will go off without a hitch.

    Joe was amazing! I actually have friends and family still complimenting me on my wedding DJ! I told Joe my two wishes for my wedding were a great party and everyone getting down on the dance floor - he really delivered! We had so many people who stayed to the end of our wedding dancing their faces off that we didn't have enough shuttles to take them all home! That's a serious success - thank you Joe!

    OMG!! This was BY FAR the best day of my life, everything went perfectly and was absolutely gorgeous! Deborba Events could not have done a better job with the lighting at my venue, it was breathtaking!

    As soon as I met with Joe at Deborba Events I knew that he was the DJ for me. He knew exactly what I wanted without having to explain my wants and needs. He has a very user-friendly site and Online Wedding Planner that made our lives a whole lot easier! We were able to log into the system and add the music that we wanted to use for our wedding.

    We met with Joe the week leading up to...

    Excellent Wedding DJ

    Joe was incredible! He made my wedding day flow so seamlessly and the guests really loved his style of transitioning songs on the dance floor. I had a guest even tell us they were eagerly awaiting what his next creative transition would be! Lol he was excellent to work with and would recommend him hands down. My ceremony location was not easy to navigate, but he made it all work and it went so smoothly. For all you brides out there, do yourself a huge favor and schedule with Deborba Events!

    Such a fun dance party!

    Joe did a great job as our wedding DJ! He took our dance playlist and made sure that no songs lingered on for too long, that the transitions between songs were seamless, and that the songs all fit well together. He was responsive and easy to work with, and he understood the types of songs we liked and the general vibe we were going for. Our family and friends all commented on how much fun the dance party was. For all our other wedding music (pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner), everything went off without a hitch, and we'd definitely recommend him to others.

    A DJ with all the Tools for a Successful Event!

    We were first introduced to Joe by our wedding venue at The Maples. From the very beginning, Joe was very friendly to talk to and brought a lot of positive energy into our wedding planning process. Joe has an abundance of experience and knew just how to make our wedding an unforgettable night. The DJ services provided by Deborba events were both professional and brought life to our wedding. My wife and I were impressed with the quality equipment used during the wedding. We were able to hear every word crisply and Joe’s music timing for all the events were impeccable. Everything from the wedding music planning tool online, to the up lighting and announcements were spot on! I give high praises to Joe and would definitely recommend him to execute and plan your next event!

    Best Bilingual DJ and MC

    Joe was amazing to work with! This is his company and listened to everything I needed. From the beginning we shared that we needed a bilingual (Spanish and English) DJ. So Joe recommended Ruben. Ruben was definitely the best DJ we could've asked for!! From day one he was very attentive to our needs. He was very patent with our music selection. The day of the wedding he was a great MC and amazing at keeping everything on track. During open dance floor EVERYONE danced!! Even people who do not normally dance, were dancing. Ruben created an amazing atmosphere! I am so grateful for Joe and Ruben!! Best DJ vendor you can have and at an unbeatable price!

    A Hail of a Party

    We were so excited to work with Joe, as he made us feel completely comfortable from our first phone call. Little did we know, he'd have a more tough job than any of us thought. At our wedding in Woodland we had a 0% chance of rain that morning, which actually meant thunder and lightening storms, a few rounds of hail and a nearby tornado (all during cocktail hour/dinner/dancing). As we planned on an all outdoor affair, we had to go through various changes throughout the day and Joe helped the party continue without missing a beat. Our dancefloor (which moved locations from our original plan) was still filled with our friends and family dancing around us until the...

    The perfect wedding DJ

    Joe was the absolute best wedding DJ ever. From the moment we spoke I felt so comfortable with him and knew we'd be in good hands for our big day in Carmel, CA. He made sure to walk me through every detail, allowed me to ask as many questions as I needed and he was so kind and communicative along the way (which is key for a bride!). We received SO many compliments on him from our guests, and even had a few people ask for his contact info for their upcoming nuptials. Everything related to the sound of the day from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception was so smooth. He played off of the vibe...

    Joe was extremely helpful. He came out to the venue during multiple walk throughs with our planner to coordinate what was needed to make sure the day went off without a hitch. He spent time with us to understand our taste in music, what we liked, what we didn't, etc. He worked with us to create the perfect playlist for our wedding. He played the BEST music all night long and kept the dance floor packed all night.

    Joe is absolutely wonderful and the best decision you can make for your event is to hire him! He saw us through two venue changes and when the last change came 48 hours before our big day he swooped in with our planner to come to the rescue. It was his quick thinking, preparedness (extra generators anyone!!), hard work (he helped set up super early and brought so much extra lighting and equipment!), and awesome musical style that made our event truly special. We rocked out all night to our favorite genres and the dance floor was never empty. Joe was our DJ in shining armor and we couldn’t have been happier to work with him. He’s an incredibly...

    I know that it’s difficult to figure out what the best option is when it comes to the entertainment for your wedding, because I’ve been there! Our DJ was brought to us from our amazing wedding planner, Kate Whelan. Joe Deborba is the BEST, and I would recommend him to absolutely anyone, without hesitation. The minute we started working with Joe, it seemed like every piece of the wedding started falling into place. From our initial meeting, we knew how much he cared about making our wedding day the best it could be. He agreed to meet us over coffee, and made us feel like we were hanging out with an old friend. We talked about what kind of...

    Joe is wonderful! 5 stars is seriously not enough! We just worked with DeBorba Evebts on our wedding for bistro lighting and DJ services and wow, we were seriously impressed. From the first moment I started planning services with Joe months ago, I could tell he was passionate his work and has a wonderfully friendly and welcoming personality. He created such an amazing lighting ambiance for our wedding and the music was on point! He worked seamlessly with our coordinator to make the whole night run so smoothly. He allowed us to customize our own playlist so every song was our favorite :)

    I would very highly recommend Joe, he helped make our special night total success!

    Deborba came highly recommended to us while researching a DJ for our wedding. Needless to say, DeBorba lived up to their endorsement. Joe was absolutely professional, organized and extraordinary! Just can't say enough how much easier and smoothly our wedding was due to his accurate timeline. He had every song and music selection we asked for. He went above and beyond to make our special day amazing!!!

They worked with my wife and I so much and were so flexible and professional throughout the whole process it made planning a breeze and the wedding unforgettable! You can select and personalize everything to the finest detail or trust in their expertise! Not to mention, they had the dance floor packed the entire night!

    I'm ashamed it has taken me this long to write this review, but I really had to make sure I did one because working with DeBorba Events was a phenomenal experience. Joe and Deborba Events handled the sound, music, and lighting for our wedding. The lighting was perfect and set a beautiful romantic ambiance for our vineyard wedding. Joe was also our wedding DJ and he was awesome. I was probably a difficult bride and gave little direction as to what to play, but he was able to read the crowd and every song made us all hit the dance floor. I was so worried that no one would dance at my wedding, but thanks to Joe it was...

    If your idea of a successful wedding is one where your dance floor is full of guests having a good time, then please, choose DeBorba Events. Joe of DeBorba Events recently handled the lighting and all things sound for my wedding. Joe does more than just light the room and play music, he creates the theme and turns it into an event. Joe was able to read the crowd and keep people dancing!

    In a day-and-age where anyone can plug in a playlist, many people wonder if a DJ is necessary, and I believe when you have the right one, it really is. Joe has the experience to be able to tell if people just aren’t into...

    Where do I begin! I am so happy that we chose Joe to be the DJ at our wedding. From the get go he was very helpful had wonderful ideas and was always so easy to get ahold of. Joe made our night truley magical. He was able to set up the night before so I was able to get a sneak peak. The lightly was beautiful as well as the draping I asked him to do. All I did was send him a few pictures and he did it exactly the way I wanted it. Joe is very professional, knows his craft, helpful and full of ideas. Our guest had so much fun and could not get off...
