Manny and his team were amazing. Before the wedding he made sure to ask if we wanted specific songs for different parts of the ceremony and reception. We didn’t have a ton of specific songs, but we made a list of music with the vibes we wanted. Manny took the list, ran with it, and really took care of us. The dance floor was packed all night! He even played Tagalog pop songs and managed sound for a Filipino folk dance group. We also loved the little details like the template for our photo booth photos, the lights for the dance floor, and our initials projected on the wall. Thank you Bay Pro DJs, we’re so glad that you were there to help make our wedding so special.

We reached out to Sutherland Entertainment for our May wedding at the Berkeley City Club, and knew as soon as we spoke to Spencer that we would be moving forward with his company.

He offered everything from full service music and audio with club-style transitions, to station and bistro lighting, and ensured that his equipment was elegant and well suited to the venue. His style incorporated both our personal music selections, crowd pleasers, and was able to adjust to the crowd. From the time our dance floor opened to the time it closed, it was never empty. Every compliment were received the morning after the wedding included some mention of how great the DJ was, and how our Tuesday night wedding had such incredible energy. Spencer had our wedding guests doing the worm, the splits, dropping it low, and singing like no one was listening. Thank you, Spencer, for making our special day incredibly memorable and a true party!

David was a preferred vendor for our venue. After reading all the amazing reviews and our initial contact, we booked David for his DJ and Photobooth rental services (which also included a monogram projection to add a little special touch!). David provides reasonable packages and is very professional. As wedding planning could be really stressful, we naturally had many questions for David during the initial interview. His communication stood out to us because he answered all of our questions patiently and made sure to reach out and jot down all the small details that are often overlooked. In preparation to our wedding, David made sure to highlight and communicate what works well and what doesn't in his experience, which was greatly appreciated. During our planning session, we communicated to David our concerns about having a dryer/slower dance floor as well as loud noise levels. David was very encouraging and understanding. On wedding day, David and his wife (who attended the Photobooth) made sure everything ran smoothly. David consistently checked in with us as well. We appreciated that he heard our concerns and catered towards us. At the end of the night, our guests wanted to kept the party going because David knew how to engage them and our guests had fun (which is what we hoped for!). One last item to add, the Photobooth quality was awesome. All the pictures were printed quick and in high resolution. The lighting was great as well. We were able to get the link to all of our photos within a couple days. I highly recommend David and will keep him in mind for future events!
