    Exceptional

    DJ Dave is a highly professional and knowledgeable DJ. We greatly appreciated and were impressed with his level of detail and skill on the sound system technology! Dave really went above and beyond making our wedding day special, and we could not be more thankful ! 5/5 stars, Dave truly is an exceptional DJ.

    Fantastic job!

    Dave did an amazing job. Since this was my first marriage I had no idea what do. Dave was super helpful in telling me all the songs I need for the wedding and the timing of how everything should go. Even when I was panicking about rehearsal dinner, that I was in charge of because I had no wedding planner, he guided me through what I should do and gave me suggestions and essentially laid everything out so I was at peace when everything needed to get done. And the party music for the reception was awesome too! He knows how to get everyone out on the dance floor! Thank you Dave for making my wedding day so special. I highly recommend him!

    Renaissance man Dave hits homerun

    Dave was the right choice from day one. He was extremely communicative and allowed us to craft our experience the way we wanted. We wanted to curate our entire playlist, and he played it perfectly while still taking requests from the crowd. He was kind enough to bring and set up two sound systems since we married outside and had the reception inside. We hired him on only as a DJ, and he still brought his camera and shot some photos of us after our official photographer left. What a guy!

    Perfect little wedding

    I would absolutely recommend Dave for both dj and photography. I found him and his daughter very professional and a pleasure to be around. I feel my photos were just how I imagined them and the music Playlist I provided was played to my liking. Not only is Dave very affordable but he is also polite and professional. I will definitely be reaching out to him for future events and I will recommend his services to everyone.

    These are the people your looking for!

    During our wedding planning phase, my wife and I were not too particular about wedding photos and hadn’t discuss any details about the type of photos we wanted prior to the wedding. However, Dave and his wife showed up, organized us, took fantastic photos, and we are extremely happy with the results!

    DJ Dave’s choice of music was on point! Most people danced the whole night! His playlist kept people on the dance floor and just when you thought you’d take a break, the next song makes you want to keep on dancing!

    Dave and his wife were extremely flexible as well! We had a mix of people from different regions of Southeast Asia and Dave and wife were accommodating and respectful! It was a treat having them and their experience really filled in the gaps of our inexperience. I can’t recommend them enough!

    Could not ask for a better experience!

    It was a pleasure getting to know Dave and Liz throughout our marriage planning process and it was wonderful having them there for our special day! Dave and Liz are clearly experts in their work, but also respect their clients’ wishes. Dave not only played the songs that my husband and I had pre-selected, but was also spot on with his judgement. He knows how to gauge the crowd and promote a great atmosphere. Liz conducted herself very well as a photographer among the chaos of the wedding and reception. Her photographs are stunning and truly capture the essence of us! We could not ask for a better experience and highly recommend DJ Dave & Photography!

    We were a bit nervous at first. We were only looking for a DJ but they had a package that included photography. The price was too good to pass up, but the exceptional pricing made us a bit nervous. They were absolutlely a pleasure to work with. I absolutely feel we under paid and got so much more for the price. Everything was first class from beginning to end. Every step of the way we were wowed with the extras that were included... pre-wedding photos, big printed photo for wedding day, the photo album and the thumb drive with all of the photos. Oh yeah, the photographs were nothing short of awesome too.

    Dave was absolutely perfect for our special day. He provided DJ services for us and couldn't have done more of a perfect job. We were on cloud nine on our wedding day (and still are), and he attributed to so much of that. He played exactly what we were looking for and was able to read our crowd very well. He kept everyone entertained and on the dance floor. The genres that he played were a variety, which was what we wanted, and we received so many compliments on what a wonderful DJ we had, pointing music choices to different age groups from middle aged, to older, to our age and even children. I highly recommend Dave as a DJ. I know he offers more services however we did not know this at the time and had already booked with other vendors. He is extremely flexible and was so patient with us, considering we did not have our final picks to him until close to the wedding day. You will not be disappointed.

    Dave did a great job providing DJ and announcing services at our wedding. We held our wedding in Cambria, CA and Dave was able to accommodate this even though he was based several hours drive from our venue. He is an excellent DJ, very easy to work with and contact, and very professional. I would *highly* recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ in and around Central California. Thanks!

    We hired Dave for our wedding along with his wife, Liz, and daughter to do our photography and videography. They were amazing!! I am vert picky and not very easy to work with and they did an AMAZING job. The music was exactly what we wanted, we didn't have to pick out song for song... He just knew and all our guests LOVED him. Liz, our photographer, is the sweetest. She is so personal and makes you feel like it's your day. Which it is... And their daughter is just as amazing. They did great with me, even though I was emotional and a little tipsy. They did great with our guests and my kids... Taking pictures isn't easy with my daughter's and they did amazing!!!! I love them. I would recommend them to anyone. And they were half the price of a single photographer who won't give you all day. Dave and Liz are available by email, text, to see. You just call and they make it work.

    The package deal I got was great and affordable! All the songs I wanted were played during the right times! David kept us on schedule for the toast cake cutting everything ! His wife Liz took our photos. That came out great ! She helped fix and place things in the right spots ! And I got my wedding pictures back by the time I got home from our honeymoon ! Over all I was very happy for the work that they both provided it made my wedding day perfect!

    SpecialK!!

    We hired DJ Dave for our wedding sort of last minute. Unfortunately he did not meet our expectations. He was very affordable, and available the date we needed him. He was on time and set up, which was appreciated. Sadly he didn't do the things I thought a good dj would do, such as fade in and out of a song, or use a certain sample of the song for things like us exiting our ceremony. I emailed him all my songs as well as filled out a detailed form he had asked for including songs we wanted to use. Thankfully he got the processional song right as that was very important to us. During the reception he actually had to ask my husband what we wanted him to play, even though I had emailed him our Spotify playlist, which I had to email him again, during my reception. I was unhappy to say the least. We spent so much time on putting several lists together, pre-ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and hardly any of it got played. Also there wasn't much interaction with the crowd at all. Was my wedding ruined? No. Would I recommend? Again no. If you want very, very low key background music with little interaction then DJ Dave is your guy. If you want a little more upbeat and fun atmosphere I would say keep looking.

    Wedding DJ service

    We hired Dave for our wedding every conversation up to the wedding was fine. During the wedding after he was told there was a chance of rain sooner than later he seemed a bit rushed to get out of there. We had to move stuff up a bit due to not wanting to get caught in the rain and at the end of the wedding (4 hours still paid for left) it sprinkled a little bit like the most minor thing and he started packing up saying the married couple said he was good to go when we didn’t. Then proceeded to change the story to it was a act of god that he couldn’t continue resulting in him leaving 4 hours early with pay for 9 hours and us not getting a send off like we had planned before hand. Very unprofessional service to do and run with money even though the full service was even completed. Seems professional on the phone but that’s about it until a small inconvenience occurs.

    DJ Dave & Photography's reply:

    Angel, I started at 12:30 and was asked to set up in the backyard with no covering. I asked for a tarp and was given one. Your guest had no covering. You asked me to hurry the wedding reception because rain was coming at 5 pm. I did all the events before 5 pm. The rain came I was not told of a send-off song at all. All your guests picked up the tables and chairs and moved under the porch. I was concerned about lightning and thunderstorms. If you had set me up under the porch, I would have stayed. I was not going to risk playing music for listening in the backyard under those conditions. My review of your wedding was that it was poorly planned, with rain in the forecast, and no consideration for your DJ and his safety. This was not a small inconvenience; it was a safety matter to me. Note, as I left town, it started to pour rain, good thing I left when I did. I'm sorry it rained on your wedding day. I did everything in my power to complete the event.
