The photo booth had great pictures and the customization was really cool with our custom templates He was very thorough during our call 2 weeks prior to the wedding and asked questions/made suggestions about things we didn't even think about. We sent him playlists we had made during the whole wedding process and were open to him adding music as well (the form you fill out during the initial booking process was also very helpful on both ends). As for the wedding itself, he definitely kept the party going! He did an amazing job and kept all of our guests entertained. His mixes were well done and he was very enthusiastic on the mic. He made sure to check in with us and keep us in line with our timeline and we appreciated that. If you're looking for a DJ for any event, look no further. OC Party DJ Agency will not disappoint.

His friendly, down-to-earth but professional approach to djing has won over the hearts and ears of people across the globe. He houses a large vinyl collection and 3 cats in his studio in Echo Park, Los Angeles.

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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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
Literally from the first interaction, Trey was thoroughly professional. We knew instantly that we'd be in good hands during the process, and he maintained through the big day. With Trey, we always had clarity over next steps, and we also got as much flexibility as we could ever hope for. We had a slightly unusual (or, unconventional) ceremony in a couple of ways, and Trey handled every request without any issue. Lastly, and most importantly for a DJ, he nailed the music. We felt like he "got" us while also filling in the gaps appropriately. A true professional, and we feel fortunate having him on the deck for our celebration.

The Moon Units: Weddings & Events 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves South Pasadena, CA

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 600+ 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
We had the pleasure of having The Moon Units perform at our wedding, and they were absolutely amazing! We enjoyed working with Dylan, he was incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout the entire process. From the initial planning stages to our big day, Dylan and the band were very professional, helping us sort out all the specific details well in advance. One of the highlights was when they specially learned a song for our first dance. It was such a personal touch that made the moment unforgettable. They also performed a beautiful acoustic rendition of "Can't Help Falling in Love" for our ceremony, which was perfect. They kept the energy high and the good vibes all night long. They curated a great set list for us and played a wonderful mix of oldies, classic rock hits, and modern pop that we and our guests loved. We can't recommend The Moon Units enough. They made our wedding night super fun and memorable. Check out their youtube/instagram and see for yourself why you should book them. I suggest just reaching out for an initial email/phone call w/ Dylan, who is friendly and a pleasure to work with.

Music is our passion and we want to share it with you and your guests. Our main goal here is to elevate and personalize your event so that it uniquely represents you.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were SO picky about our DJ. We know that good music has the power to either elevate (or ruin) an event. We were super nervous but Dart Collective was the answer we needed. The benefit of booking through them is you're able to fill out a "Music Map" where you answer questions like "What is a MUST PLAY"? or "What artist(s) to avoid?" It's rather extensive (took us about 2-3hrs to complete). BUT - totally worth it. Through this map, they pair you with an available DJ, in your area, that has the experience the same music taste as you. It's a pretty great formula. We were nervous for the months leading up because we just weren't sure if they were going to match us properly. But, they definitely exceeded our expectations. Our only complaint is that it was SO GOOD that we wanted more, lol! Book! You won't regret it.

Living Jade was the best decision we made for our wedding vendors. They played at our engagement party in Santa Barbara and our actual wedding in San Francisco. Steve encountered an issue with a band member. The singer got sick the day before the wedding, but he found a replacement that was outstanding. His network of musicians allowed him to resolve a major issue. My husband and I were happy that our contract was respected. On top of that, the energy of the band was amazing on stage. We were so happy that our guests were all on the dance floor. I never sweat so much on a dance floor.

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. We can't recommend the Lucky Devils Band highly enough - they were total professionals and our biggest splurge, but SO worth it I’d do it a million times over!!

There was not a single dull moment on the dance floor and I spent half of my wedding getting to dance and drink with my support system. He made it a dream come true.

They were extremely responsive, accommodating. Answering all of my silly questions. They showed up to the event on time and were very flexible. They set up and played wonderfully. They were in sink the entire the time. Olga’s voice is heavenly and Dave is a master on the keyboard. Our guests raved about the sweet sounds that permeated our brunch!

We hired Bob Gail Music and Entertainment for our wedding and could not have BETTER things to say about them. They are professional Rockstar's. It was by far our easiest decision, and probably the one thing guests remembered most from that night. They help with everything, from picking band members, to song selection, to creative suggestions for your special day. My husband comes from a Mexican family, so we wanted to incorporate some Latin tunes into the set list. They made it happen! While keeping with my traditional live music requests. Brian was our band leader and he kept the night moving smoothly from first dance, to toasts, to getting our guests up on their feet. And the BAND members themselves are incredible. Amazing vocals, and even better personalities. We jumped on stage with them at the end to sing the last song. Music is as important, if not more, than the small details of any wedding/special event. It really makes for lasting memories and I'm so glad we chose BG Music to jam the night away with us. RUN, do not walk, to book them.

Since then, I've been a regular attendee at Madam Sen's performances for a year now. What stands out to me is her unwavering dedication to her craft. She consistently delivers outstanding performances, showcasing her beautiful voice and incorporating captivating props into her acts.

I cannot recommend Raymond enough. He’s a master musician, a true professional, and the nicest guy you could ever work with. I hired Raymond to play my beach ceremony and I could not have picked a better musician to play my wife down the aisle. He made the entire process of booking him, picking songs, etc. so easy and stress free. She walked down the aisle to “You Ain’t Going Nowhere” by Bob Dylan and Raymond made his own classical arrangement to the song. We loved it so much that we asked him if he could make a recording of the song for us so we can listen to it for many years to come, and he did! If you’re looking for a musician for your wedding, it doesn’t get any better than this.

If you love Chappel Roan, Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, with a side of Michael Jackson and Earth Wind & Fire, you've come to the right place! It's 2024 and couples today want a fun mix of a variety of artists, both old and new, so that there's something for everyone.

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!

Josh is hands down the world's greatest DJ. It was hit after hit—I have truly never had so much fun on a dance floor--it was MAJOR. From start to finish, everything about working with him was easy. Most importantly, we felt included in the process. There were a lot of songs that I wanted to hear on the dance floor, which I was able to easily request in advance through their portal, and Josh was fantastic about playing those requests and keeping the dance floor packed with songs that fit the vibe. He was warm, easy to work with, the communication was great....he was just the best. I want to throw another party just to hire him again!

Louis Knight

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $600
  • Serves South Pasadena, CA

Louis Knight (pronounced "Louie") is a British-born, Philly-raised, LA/London-based pop singer-songwriter. His music, rooted in raw emotion, explores love, loss, and hope. Louis began his journey with his debut single “Change” in 2019, which led to a spot as a Top 7 finalist on *American Idol* Season 18. Since then, he’s worked with Grammy-nominated producers and released 2 EPs. Influenced by Lewis Capaldi, Sam Fender, and Jon Bellion, Knight’s heartfelt songs connect with audiences worldwide.

I had the absolute pleasure of experiencing Louis Knight's incredible talent at my friend's wedding, and I can confidently say it was one of the highlights of the entire celebration! From the moment he began singing, his voice captivated everyone in the room. Louis has this rare ability to effortlessly blend emotion and power, making every note feel deeply personal, yet universally touching. His performance was a perfect mix of elegance and energy, creating the most magical atmosphere. Whether he was performing a romantic ballad or a more upbeat tune, his vocal range and stage presence were truly impressive. It was clear that he genuinely cared about making the day special for the couple, and his warmth and enthusiasm were contagious. Guests were absolutely floored by how beautifully he performed, and many came up to me afterward to express how moved they were. If you're looking for an artist who can elevate any event with his talent and charm, Louis Knight is an absolute must. His voice and professionalism made the wedding unforgettable, and I would highly recommend him for any occasion!

DJ Carlos

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,000
  • Serves South Pasadena, CA

My type of party is any party that involves cumbia, merengue, banda, norteno, reggaeton, and hip hop. Growing up in a Mexican household I know what the familia likes and will have the tias dancing no doubt about it or have your tios singing their heart out. I am also crucial in any Mexican American wedding because i can MC in English / Spanish and play hits to get the American side of the family dancing .

DJ Carlos is an absolute delight to work with. His communication style is amazing - they are incredibly responsive, always available to answer questions, and provide clear and detailed information. The music they play at weddings is high-energy and keeps the dance floor packed all night long. I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a talented and professional wedding DJ.
