Tasteful & Appropriate

My style of announcing is appreciated by the couples that hire me, because unlike other DJs it's refreshingly appropriate and tasteful. Other DJs announce for all types of events, not only weddings, and only offer the traditional style of DJ announcing. Because unlike other DJs I truly only DJMC weddings, I offer a consistent style that you can appreciate considering your wedding is not just a party or dance.

Expert Coordination

Because I have been specializing exclusively in weddings for over 20 years, I have the knowhow to skillfully guide your wedding in ways no other disc jockey can. You can relax and have fun by not having to worry about the next step of your reception, since I will be moving your reception along from start to completion by coordinating, announcing, and guiding your guest’s attention as planned. 

I will notice things at your wedding that other disc jockeys won't and in turn be able to then make significant differences in maintaining the smooth progression of your reception. This is an extremely critical position to be in at a wedding and few disc jockeys are able to manage this as needed.

Dependability & Punctuality

I’ve never been late to a wedding in all my twenty years. With me couples get a 100% fail proof dependability and punctuality systems set in place. I’m an extremist when it comes to reliability, so I end up being very low stress.


I arrive in the area where the wedding is located four to five hours before the music is scheduled to start (close by Starbucks or something similar). I then move to the actual wedding venue two to three hours prior to scheduled music start time, even though setting up the equipment is only 45 minutes. This allows me many hours of lead-way time if there were to be some sort of hold up. I consistently use this two-stage system for every single wedding in order to ensure absolute 100% punctuality.


I don’t attempt to dazzle couples with gimmicks to attract them to book as other DJs do. Disc jockeys are known to attempt to sell their service by using gimmicks such as packages of services at differing rates or providing what ever it takes to attract customers so that they look past how solid their service really is. They want prospective customers to focus on other things such as room lighting, photo montage presentations, and a number of other gimmicks that have little if anything to do why couples hire a disc jockey in the first place. If needed, photo’s should be left to and managed by the photo pro which are photographers, and lighting should be left to the professionals at party rental companies that specialize in lighting.

User Friendly Service

I’ve helped so many out of state couples with their destination weddings here in SoCal, that it has caused me to perfectly streamlined my service so that everything from getting to know my service prior to booking to all the wedding preparation can be conducted remotely by phone and electronically. This benefit is appreciated by local SoCal couples too, since it's such a big energy and time saver and also allows for better ease of use and flexibility with both prior to booking and throughout the DJMC planning stage. The DJ MC planning stage is rather more of a process than something that would be able to be accomplished in a 30 or 40 minute meeting.  


With me you get a true wedding expert always at your fingertips for any help with questions about reception steps, timing, and music. If you have a question about these things, I know the answer and you're welcome to call or email throughout the planning period at any time. All my calls go directly to my personal phone 24/7, so I’m always reachable even on the day of your wedding. Other DJs tend to have a separate business phone number because they don't like to be bothered by brides and grooms. I'm just the opposite, I like having my work integrated into my personal life.

Music

I carry all genres of music and have a massive music library that’s constantly being added to. You can either select all of your own music by emailing me a list or you can select just a part of it and I will build on your selections by using my knowledge of music and developed skill at reading the crowd. If you select music I don’t have I will purchase the selections for my library. With me your music will be perfect; the styles and selections you two really want, while not playing music you don’t want.

Equipment

The equipment I use is the best pro sound equipment and suited perfectly for weddings. The look is very tasteful and the sound quality is amazing. I use the latest Apple Macbook pro computers with MegaSeg DJ software , super powerful and clear Pro JBL 800 watt speakers with 15” woofers, an eight channel Newmark mixer, and professional grade German engineered wireless microphones for toasting. I don’t skimp on quality, after all it’s your wedding, so the sound is clean, full, rich, live-like, and vibrant. The equipment is replaced on a regular basis to ensure dependability and aesthetics.

The Look

When I set up at a wedding it doesn't look as though a high school or club DJ and his equipment just landed in the middle of your wedding. It’s subtle, but my sound system and the way I dress look as though I should be the disc jockey at a wedding. The equipment is clean, updated, stylish, understated, the perfect size, and just perfect for your wedding venue’s look.

The look is up to date in every way, including the way I dress; not the typical goofy DJ look such as with a crooked black bow tie, white shirt and un-tailored jacket. Instead I wear a professionally tailored black suit, black dress shirt, black dress shoes, and a strait regularly knotted tie that is neutral in color (silver/gray) with a slight sheen to it. If you’re instead having a theme wedding, I dress accordingly.

Cocktail Hour & Dinner Music

The sound systems I use for these times can reach an exceptionally clean, full, rich, vibrant, live-like sound at this lower level, so the sound much better than if you were to use the hotel's or venue's in-house music system. I have some great ideas for music for these times on the Reception Planner where I grouped together artists to create themes that you can choose, or you can create your own play list. At these times I make sure the volume is at a comfortable level for guests so they can visit without discomfort of the music being too loud. However, if at any time you want the music quieter or louder let me know; it’s your wedding and I’m there to accommodate.

Multiple Sound Systems

I can have as many as three computerized systems playing music at the same time, so that when guest’s transition from one part of your wedding to the other, the music continues.

For instance, I can set up a sound system in one location for the ceremony, another in the cocktail hour area, while still having another system in another area ready for the reception. These three different sound systems look appropriate for their individual uses.

Fees and What is Covered

Remember that compared to other DJs, with me you get a completely different DJ service in absolutely every way. Comparing my service to other DJ's services really is like comparing apples to oranges. You would know this if you've read Wedding Secrets.

I'm not able to list my rates here on my site because they depend somewhat on demand for a particular date, such as accounting for the day of the week and time of year. Other additional factors are considered, so talking on the phone is necessary to cover all the factors and details. Please don't email me asking for me to email my rates to you since this requires going over information on the phone. When we speak on the phone you will see what I mean. I look forward to speaking with you.
