I'm a Wedding Planner (Hun Events) and I had the pleasure of working with Bryan as my client's wedding DJ in November 2024. Not only was he great to work with leading up to the wedding day by listening to my clients' specific music requests and special mixes and timing, but on the wedding day he was super professional, collaborative, and just generally fun to be around! He helped us stay on top of the timeline and had the dance floor packed the entire Reception. He really listened to the Bride & Grooms' music preferences and was a great vendor partner. You gotta hire him!

Rob and all the staff we worked with at Second Song were great! I vetted several DJs for my husband’s surprise 70th birthday celebration and selected Second Song live DJ because they were able to provide a soloist and a sax player to compliment the overall DJ experience. Our DJ was Ace, Sax Player Austin and singer Natalie. I booked 11 months in advance, had a phone meet and greet 6 weeks out and had several revisions to the itinerary as we got closer to the event. Any changes , questions or ideas I had were promptly acknowledged, answered and collaborated on which continually reassured me that Second Song took a personal interest in making our night one to remember. I also found out that Second Song is frequently hired by my employer, Providence Medical Center in Torrance, for their Foundation events.

A wedding is a grueling process and I remember at the end of the night my husband and I found ourselves kind of sad looking at Seth. It was like we were breaking up with him, he was our first vendor and to contact each other for almost a year and a half it was a sad moment. For me as a bride he was like my best friend I vent to and basically took my coordinator role. He calmed me when this went south (postponement of the wedding and my original coordinator dropped out a month left of the wedding) and for my husband... he vibes with Seth through Seth's music. My husband is SO PICKY with our wants and needs as a DJ and Seth swept him away just by listening to his mixes. My husband says his transitions from song to song is smooth and song selections are on point. Then after taking to him we were sold! The most genuine person you will ever meet, he does this for the love of music and it shows. He works hard to make it easy for you, is on top of things, responsive to all e-mails, and takes his time. He does so much more for your buck and we made sure he knew that! Also we have been coordinating everything out of state, so he takes the time to make sure he can fit himself in my almost impossible work/life schedule (working out of the house for more than 12 hrs) we I truly appreciate. So in short BOOK HIM! DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME INQUIRING SOMEONE ELSE because if I could (because we live out of state) I would book him over and over again! What I really need him to do is live here in LV so I can book him over and over again!

James was so much fun at our wedding! He was a great MC/DJ and was a hit with all of our wedding guests. He communicated with us throughout the wedding process and kept in touch with both me and my wedding coordinator whenever we came across any details we needed to discuss. My only concern was not having him longer at the wedding. My husband and I still talk about our wedding playlist and how we wish we had more dance time with our guests.

My focus is quality. I take my job seriously and I hope that I can make you happy so that you’ll consider me for your next event, and any event thereafter. Checkout my LinkTree for upcoming events, more reviews, and to visit my instagram. I am the Resident DJ for Première Los Angeles (premierelosangeles on IG). Let's team up and create memories! It is important for me to articulate, that I serve ALL PEOPLE EQUITABLY!! However, I do want to note that I do require that the couple has a Day of Coordinator (not the venue person). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
DJ Trey is THE BEST DJ!!! I wish we had even more time on the dance floor to keep letting him mix because he’s a genuinely fantastic DJ! Not just a DJ who sets up an iPhone or Spotify and lets it ride mindlessly, but a DJ who reads the crowd, takes input from the bride and groom, and uses his skill and best judgement to provide music that gets everyone on the dance floor. Literally everyone at our wedding was on their feet for dancing and loved all the music DJ Trey played! He also was fantastic in making sure all of the music played on their appropriate cues and was well-prepared. He was great to work with for our wedding and we can’t wait to throw another party just so we have an excuse to use DJ Trey again!

Thank you to Dart Collective and or DJ Paul for the soundtrack to our perfect day.

The Moon Units: Weddings & Events 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 650+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Moon Units made my wedding. It all started when my wife (fiancee at the time) forwarded me an Instagram clip of them because she knew I was set on hiring a live band. I took my sweet time to cast a wide net and to follow, interview, and compare A LOT of bands. We went out to watch our top two choices and when we saw The Moon Units' positive energy, ability to rock the crowd, and musical skill, we immediately knew that they were meant to be our band (just like when we saw the venue we wanted, we just knew). They are highly accommodating, musically versatile, and truly professional, Hollywood type performers who will seal the deal on upgrading your wedding from already great to one of the greatest your guests have ever been to. The three things that most impressed me about them during my wedding were: 1) they gave it their all on every song whether there were two people on the dance floor or the whole group (and believe me, your guests will notice this too), 2) they were able to improvise to seamlessly integrate with all my other vendors and moving parts without any interruptions, as if my wedding was truly an entertainment production, and 3) whether they were singing rock, hiphop (yacht version), metal, r&b, pop, Kpop, oldies, or jazz, they performed as if it was their main genre. We requested them to learn two of our favorite songs that we loved but were skeptical that they could perform because of how hard they were to sing, and man did they prove us wrong! Each of the musicians are friendly, multi talented/multi instrument, down to earth people who love what they do and have a great time performing. They output pure sound candy and also look great doing it. Your stage will be glammed up and filled out, and your guests will compliment and remember your band choice even more than your food, I guarantee it. My wife and I are now semi-groupies (and I'm not ashamed as their gigs take me back to the best night of my life), and we aren't the only ones! That's something that no Youtube clip or online review can really convey. Good luck and have a great time wedding planning, but hire The Moon Units!!!

Hey! My name is Antonio McElroy, but you can call me Tony. I am a 32 year old Special Education teacher and DJ/MC. I began DJing under Robert Hilo of Hilo Productions in 2013. Under his wing, I learned all the ins and outs of DJing & MCing. My mission is to make sure you and your partner have the best time possible. From weddings to corporate & private events, I am here to help make the big day or event one for the books! I started this business with my wife, Jessica. We are committed to going above and beyond your expectations. We love to see our clients happy, and it's awesome that we get to do that together!

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with TME! We booked Tony and Jess’ services for our small intimate wedding of about 40 people and we were more than pleased with how amazing they were to work with. From the very beginning they had great communication with answering our questions and we were able to set up multiple meetings before the wedding to chat about and orchestrate music for our big day. Tony was very dedicated to learning more about our vision and opinions and was very thorough when covering what music we did and didn’t want to hear. The day of the wedding, Tony and Jess showed up on time, were super professional and executed everything we discussed in our meetings perfectly. Tony was very charismatic on the mic and did an awesome job of blending the songs we requested with some of his own recommendations. We also amazed with some of the transitions he built in between songs to keep the energy going and our guests loved it! And on top of all of that, the pricing was more than reasonable as they provide different rates for different size weddings. We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect DJ for our wedding day and if we’re in need of a DJ again, TME will be my first call. Reasons we loved working with TME: -They’re insanely kind and professional -They have reasonable pricing -Great communication -Excellent services -Professional equipment -Massive collection of music

I hired this agency for our hedge fund company anniversary in London and as well for my daughter's wedding in South of France. Steve and Patryce were amazing listeners. We also loved the fact that they are a couple that work hard together for their family and have strong work ethics. We did not know that Steve was such a awesome drummer: My God! We thought he just ran the company. We understand why his network of musicians is so large. I will definitely hire them again. They made me look great in front of my high net worth clients and partners and everyone was on the dance floor at my daughter 's wedding.

Lily and Simon went above and beyond in making our wedding stress free and oh so beautiful! They have a lengthy list of beautiful songs to choose from. However, if they don’t have the song you would like them to play, they are willing to get the sheet music and practice so they can play it! They did that for one of our songs and it came out so lovely! We had tons of compliments, our guests loved their music.

The Lucky Devils Band absolutely made our wedding reception! From our initial phone call with Meredith, we knew we were in excellent hands. She took the time to thoroughly understand our vision and musical tastes, making thoughtful suggestions along the way. Communication was prompt, fun, and Meredith was so approachable throughout the planning process. On the big day, the band blew us away with their incredible talent and ability to perfectly execute our song requests, from jazz to oldies to classic rock. As musicians ourselves, we were so impressed by their skill level and experience and professionalism. During cocktail hour, two musicians played jazz, then they switched to rock mode for the reception. They truly made it feel like our own personal concert and kept people on the dance floor for literally 3 hours! The energy was palpable from their very first note, and their song selections kept guests of all ages dancing all night long. They ended the evening with “Purple Rain” by Prince and it made my life.

Josh is a phenomenal DJ. We hired him for our wedding and the event was hailed as (not just one of the best weddings) but as one of the best parties our guests had ever attended. Josh took our music preferences and added to them, making our reception incredibly high energy and fun. Pretty much everyone was up and dancing the entire time. In terms of organization, Josh is incredibly attentive and communicative. He learns about you in order to run your event perfectly tailored to who you are and what you want. The entire process was very personalized and we felt very taken care of. We highly recommend Josh for any event you need DJ'd.

An award winning DJ/MC service for your event, no matter the size. This minority-owned business was founded by Flobo Boyce in 2017 and has performed at over 150 events ever since. An accomplished stand up comedian in his own right, Flobito can provide your event with levity and fun!

Awarded Best of Zola
When you have a family as large as mine chaos seems to ensue whenever there is a large gathering, add in an open bar and anything can happen. On multiple occasions Flobo seemed to magically keep the piece either through song choice, or dance off invite, or any number of other tricks he seemed to hide up his incredibly fashionable sleeves. I dare say this was the first wedding in the history of my family that didn’t have at least one disagreement break out. If he can do this with my crazy family, I can only imagine how magical an evening he creates for sane families!
