Modern Highway was absolutely FANTASTIC at our wedding! Their setlist of 80s, 90s, and 2000s hits had everyone on their feet all night. Christina’s voice is unforgettable, and their rendition of "How Far We’ve Come" by Matchbox 20, a song very special to our family, was particularly memorable. Their ability to engage with the crowd was exceptional, getting everyone excited and joyful. They were also great communicators and wonderful to work with, offering helpful ideas and accommodating all our requests. If you want a band that will make your wedding unforgettable, look no further than Modern Highway. Highly recommended!

DJ Conner was absolutely amazing and my husband and I couldn't be happier with the dancing music and all the music played throughout the evening. He listened to our music needs, which were not the clearest at times, but nonetheless he came up with a great playlist that fit the diverse age range and what we were envisioning. It seemed that all the guests were dancing on the dance floor at some point in the evening. Just recently a guest from the wedding reached out commenting how Conner was the best wedding DJ they have ever heard. Conner brings a cool, sophisticated vibe that is truly great for all age demographics. Additionally, Conner was super professional, on time, and had state of the art sound equipment. He also did an incredible job micing the night and keeping the pace. The fact that I didn't want the night to end speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed our wedding and a big part of that was the music. Hiring the right DJ is one of the best wedding decisions we made and was also way more cost effective than a live band. To wrap this up, we are so thankful Conner decided to take his DJ talents to the wedding industry. I am sure his business will take off. Thank you Conner, we will always remember how you made our night so special and my brother's EPIC speech :)

Sound Prodigy and DJ Pat was awesome to work. The app he had us use to add music to so he could get a feel for what we like was very easy to use. He’s clearly very experienced and knew how to get the crowd energized and keep the dance floor packed all night. Their intuitive sense of the vibe and flow of the evening was spot on, and they kept the music going seamlessly through all the key moments. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding celebration so memorable. We also booked a photo bus through him and I highly recommend that.

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Hey there, I'm DJ Preston! My DJ journey began at 15, and it's been an incredible ride ever since. Starting in 1995, I spun tracks for school dances, bars, and clubs, then moved into radio, spending 8 years on air. I've performed at award shows, corporate events, weddings, and traveled the country for nightclub gigs, even sharing stages with big-name artists. Recently, I was honored as one of the best wedding DJs in San Diego by California Wedding Day in 2024. I love creating unforgettable atmospheres where everyone can dance and have an amazing time.

Ohh friends, look no further! Preston and his company is nothing but the best! He's prepared, punctual, dresses for the job (this one matters to me!), and is the personality you want on your big day! Despite his clear talents, he is a top notch human being. I've loved that he doesn't like to takeover. He does an incredible job, but it's always very clear it's the couples party, not his. You don't want to say, "I wish we booked him", just do it! :) You won't regret it!

To this day, as I continue to plan and MC events, music, and customer service continue to be a cornerstone of my business. Throughout this past year, I spent a lot of my time speaking with families, friends, past and future clients, vendors, and business professionals.

The Metric System Entertainment was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very first interaction, their communication was professional, thorough, and knowledgeable, putting us at ease throughout the entire planning process. On the day of our wedding, their execution was seamless and exciting - they kept the dance floor packed all night long with a playlist that perfectly read the crowd.

Lily DJ-ed at our wedding in May 2024, and we cannot recommend her enough! She was friendly, responsive, organized, and clearly had a lot of valuable experience in the industry. She did an amazing job using our playlist as inspiration to keep everyone on the dance floor. She read the dance floor really well, making adjustments quickly to maintain the right energy. The vibes were great (all thanks to her!!), and many of our guests made it a point to let us know she did a great job. A friend even said DJ Tiger Lily was the best DJ they'd ever seen at a wedding, which was a high compliment!

We had a great experience with Second Song! Planning was super easy with the Rob team during the 9ish months leading up to our wedding. On our wedding day, DJ Shredy was THE ICON of the night. We had built the playlist for the pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and he very much followed that our wishes. We really appreciated that because music is a huge part of our relationship. He was also very responsive over email and phone. He had a great personality on the day and was the perfect blend of an MC who was communicative but not overly on top of the mic. During the dance party portion of the evening, he rightfully threw in choices of his own that we hadn't thought of and I am so glad he did. He brought life to the party and we have gotten compliments since our wedding night about how much fun everyone had and how perfect the dance floor was.

Full custom theme weddings from San Francisco's leading indie DJs. Share your love of music with family and friends. We're here to help you make your wedding sound like the mixtape you exchanged when you first met.

Our experience working with Jamie and Ceremony DJs can be best summed up by the fact that multiple people told us after the ceremony they wanted to book him for their wedding and at least one got his business card! I can't imagine a better DJ, truly. When we first met with Jamie, he said he could make people dance to anything and would keep people on the dance floor all night, and he WAS NOT LYING. The whole night, the dance floor was PACKED even though it was rainy/muddy/cold/wet. Jamie took us on a journey that covered all of the bases of the music we love to hear and dance to, seamlessly and magically (?) integrating genres with the best mixes, it was pure wizardry and really captured who we were. We as a couple care a lot about music and wanted music that represented who we were and what we like to listen to, and he did not disappoint! So much prep work went into this, he took patience and time to try to understand our tastes and vibe, and it was so cool to have the wedding played on vinyl- basically, Jamie just "got it" from start to finish and we had the best time! Our wedding also got delayed due to rain and a road closure and he was such a good sport, staying late to keep us all dancing for a whole other hour- so fun! Also, when our ceremony musician was stuck in traffic due to the storm, he was so prepared and had our prelude/processional music downloaded so we could still walk down the aisle to the songs we'd chosen. Overall, such a cool, kind, funny guy who was professional and prepared in every way and honest just takes time to meet and know his clients, and clearly just loves to share his love of music. I would book him for everything if I could. BOOK THIS DJ. You will NOT regret it!

Seth was the least stressful part of the entire wedding planning process! Great communicator, calm, sweet, helpful and knowledgeable in all types of music. From our first meeting, we immediately trusted him and felt comfortable that he knew what he was doing. A true professional who takes his job seriously. We hired Seth because we read reviews from other mixed race couples who said he blended music from all cultures perfectly. It was important to us that he honor both cultures, while keeping everyone on the dance floor all night. I also had a very specific request for him, that the music be "clean" and free of any disrespectful and derogatory lyrics towards women, and he FULLY embraced that request. I'm not exaggerating when I say that our very diverse crowd stayed on the dance floor ALL NIGHT (me and hubs included). All songs were mixed flawlessly, no awkward pauses in between. What an amazing party, and Seth gets a huge part of that credit. A text message from one of our guests: "I went to a wedding in Lake Arrowhead. It was boring. DJ was no bueno. Your guy had all the tunes dialed in" Your guests will remember a boring DJ. Do not skimp on the Entertainment! Seth is your guy! 15/10 Seth, we can't thank you enough! Talin & Tomas
