We are so happy we decided to work with Golden Bell for our wedding day music! My husband and I wanted the flexibility of a DJ with the high-energy and interactivity of a band, and Golden Bell delivered. The DJ/band hybrid got all of our guests out on the dance floor, and kept them there all night.

From the moment we met with Dennis, we felt we were in good hands. He helped us with our timeline and music selections. I wanted to have a special song for my bridal entrance with my voiceover. He executed that perfectly! Dennis kept all of our friends and family on the dance floor the whole night!

Notorious V.I.C. 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves La Quinta, CA

Music has always been an important part of my life. With over 12 years of experience in the wedding industry, I fell in love with music at a young age, and being a wedding DJ has allowed me to share my passion with my clients on the most important day of their lives. DJing started out as a hobby; I wanted to do more than just listen to music, so I learned creative ways to blend my favorite songs together from different artists and genres to form an experience.

Vic DJ'd my November 2022 Palm Springs wedding. He was fantastic and I would recommend him without reservation. He showed up to the location days before to scope it out and on wedding day, he arrived early and quietly set up his gear. He played exactly the music we requested along with some other fun choices. When a friend requested a specific song, something rather old and forgotten, he grabbed it quickly and played it and it made for a great moment. I had a very positive experience with Vic.

Hi, my name is Cris and I am the owner of Red Velvet DJ! I actually started DJ-ing at the age of 11 (1996). In my early 20's I transitioned to DJ-ing at various clubs & lounges throughout the Chicagoland area. (Where I grew up and lived till 2019) Some of them include Dragonfly, Bella Lounge, Republic, Wet, Waterhouse, and Rebel in Wrigleyville. I have focused primarily on weddings since 2009. My open format mixing style is very diverse, so I am able to blend all genres of music together! I live in Temecula with my wife, 2 children, and 2 dogs. I have a love for basketball, wine, long walks, and vacuuming around the house. =)

We are so glad we used Second Song for our wedding! The whole process was super easy and whenever we had a question or wanted to update something (like add more uplights, which was a great addition btw) we always got a prompt and helpful reply. And our DJ Rob Goodmonson! We cannot thank him enough for the amazing work he did at our wedding! We loved his energy and all of his questions that he had for us during our phone call consultation. I in particular am very grateful that he was so willing to help me with a special song request which required mixing bits from two songs together for my Father-Daughter dance. He was more than up for the challenge and was so helpful with it! When it came to the actual wedding, he was so kind when introducing himself on our wedding day and did a beautiful job MCing. We wanted more minimal MC work and he nailed it perfectly! He was also super flexible with last minute announcement requests that we had. For example, we realized no one was noticing the anniversary cards we put out for signing at the dinner tables, so we asked him to make a little announcement about it and he did great doing that on the spot! Finally, the music all night was absolutely fantastic. He really listened to what we wanted and he delivered! The music felt very much like “us” and we had so much fun dancing all night long. Everyone kept talking about how great he was and several people said it was the best wedding music they have ever heard. If we ever need a DJ again, without a doubt, we will be hiring DJ Rob!

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 incredible. He was so on top of things, understood the vibe we wanted at every point and absolutely crushed it. Multiple guests came up to me just to specifically tell me "Your DJ is amazing." From our first meeting (before we had even officially hired him) to the last dance, Seth was so easy to work with and absolutely delivered on the kind of dancefloor we wanted. We wanted someone who understood what we did and didn't want and who would keep people dancing -- nothing depresses me more than when a DJ plays the "wrong" song and the dancefloor empties out but the DJ doesn't read the room and adjust. We never had that, and we never had one "wrong" song. Seth is so good at reading the dancefloor and keeping the party going. And I know other reviewers have mentioned it, but his app is great and made the process of picking key songs and favorites and "DO NOT PLAY" songs so streamlined. We can't recommend Seth highly enough!

CONNER UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT!! My husband and I gave him a few "must have" songs and explained the vibe/type of music we like- leaving him pretty much in charge of the playlist. HE NAILED IT. He played banger after banger making it impossible for myself and guests to leave the dance floor. He even included clips from some of the speeches that were given earlier in the evening. INCREDIBLE! I've had several people since, ask for his contact information to play future events! If you're looking for someone to keep the dance party flowing- call Conner! 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!

Tyler was AMAZING to work with! From start to finish, he was super responsive, amicable and bought some really fun ideas to the table. He was open to our ideas too and provided 3 custom song edits for our wedding. His talent stretches far beyond just DJing -- he played piano for our ceremony and saxophone during cocktail hour and reception. Our guests were enamored with him and til this day are still talking about "the sax guy". No one left the dance floor all night, thanks to his energy and engagement. If you're still on the fence, the answer is yes... HIRE HIM!
