DJ Ryan was AMAZING at our wedding! DJ Tempoe Entertainment as a whole is very organized and always made me feel comfortable and confident. Ryan is a music genius and knew exactly what to play to get the party started. He also was very cooperative in my song requests. For instance, I told him I really wanted to focus on 70s/80s hits and 2010s nostaglia, and he totally nailed it!

Tiger is the best DJ ive ever seen at a wedding. Ive been to a million. He can tailor the playlist hugely based on what you like and keep things fresh. He also has no issue picking the perfect songs to lure people out onto the dance floor and KEEP THEM THERE. also his cocktail hour music was soo fun and dinner music was fantastic. He's also just super flexible if you need to add songs or swap them or change up the schedule. Hes just the best energy and super funny also. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of music and will know and have any song you ever request. And if it just came out like two days ago he can quickly download it also. To sum it up, looking for a cool DJ is almost impossible, this guy is going to give you a good DJ set without any effort from you, he will just bring the party with him.

949 Studio met and exceeded my expectations for the wedding day! Our DJ Mike was considerate of our wants and met with us a few times before the wedding day to ensure everything was nailed down. He double-checked our chosen songs and made suggestions if he thought one of them wouldn't work. He really brought the party to the wedding day! Our MC Matt was top-notch. He made sure that he had everyone's names correct, that our timeline was on schedule, and was able to work on his feet when something didn't happen exactly in the timeline. He was professional and kind and brought the energy to the wedding day! This team was incredible and made our wedding a night we will never forget!! Pictures don't capture just how much fun we had!

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!

"I am still in awe. 100/10 absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for above & beyond service. BOOK HIM you will not regret it." -Reese Free. As you compare performers, you likely wonder what makes one a better fit than another. Of course, musical skill is important. This is something I've developed in my 15 years of playing. But there's more than that—it's the ability to fit seamlessly with a DJ, to connect with vendors behind the scenes to minimize weight on your shoulders, to deliver your important songs in a way that accentuates the emotions of the moment. With Seps, you can expect a performance of a lifetime, with the easiest prep imaginable.

Seps was the BEST addition to our wedding we could have ever asked for! He brought the party and the energy and made it an unforgettable night. The number one thing guests talk to us about after the day! If you’re looking for a fun and unique touch to liven up the party, Seps is your guy! 10000/10!

For our destination wedding in Mexico, we wanted to create a unique environment for our big day… we knew our hidden hacienda in the jungle needed live music to set the tone for the night. Jonathan is an incredible singer and musician and from our first meeting, we knew he could create the cool vibe we were looking for. He played everything from Led Zeppelin as I walked down the aisle to Gin & Juice for our requested r&b/hip hop cover hour during dinner. As if he isn’t talented enough, Jonathan was also our DJ for when the party really started. We were lucky to have him be part of our wedding and will always be grateful for the amazing work he did!

My Name is Cesar [DJ Czar] – I have been djing for 14+ years. My passion for music started at a young age with a heavy influence from my family. As I grew older, the passion for music translated to learning to play different instruments which lead me to DJing. Almost 15 years later, I’ve been able to help create unforgettable memories on the dance floor for my clients. From birthday parties, weddings, business events, my goal is always the same: to deliver an experience that keeps everyone dancing, smiling, and having fun!

Cesar always has any and all music you could possibly want for your party. He has DJed a few family parties and big events for us, and each time, he gets everyone up and dancing. He is super professional and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend his services for any event. By far the best DJ!

Second Song has a great process to make sure you have input into the music selection at your wedding! Bryan was super helpful in reviewing our preferences/playlists and was very clear that he wanted the day to be about us! Bryan did a great job including our preferences while also making sure that he didn't just follow our playlist if the wedding guest weren't loving it or the vibe was different than the songs we selected. We had the best time at our wedding and we appreciate Bryan for all his hard work!!

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!

Where to even begin with Seth and his incredible service! From the get go, Seth was such a pleasure to work with. Planning a wedding can be so stressful and finding the right vendors takes time and effort. We are so happy we found him! His professionalism and DJ skills are beyond what we could have asked for. Seth offers such an amazing and organized process that he truly made our party come to life just as we imagined and hoped for. He takes the time and effort to get to know you as a couple, he makes the best recommendations when appropriate, he follows up as promised and executes what you plan with him just as you request. We had a special request for our ceremony in that we really wanted our song to be from our favorite Disney Pixar short film. We weren’t sure if it could be done because of the timing and editing required. Seth literally said “don’t worry I got you” and made it happen!!!:) It was an actual dream come true. What we appreciate the most though, is how easy he was to work with. He was very helpful and he truly is such a kind person! We didn’t have to chase him down with any questions because he is so proactive about giving the best experience to his clients. We could go on and on about how great he is but, point being is - book him now! We promise you won’t regret it!! :)
