  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,300
  • Serves San Marcos, CA

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

My wife and I met XRay through mutual friends and going clubs when he used to DJ in downtown San Diego when we were in college. When I proposed to my now wife, we both came to the quick conclusion that we needed Ray to be our DJ because we always had a blast when we would go the club he would perform. We always enjoyed the music he played, and wanted our wedding guests to experience the same entertainment that we did. Planning the music playlist was pretty easy to do with Ray, and we pretty much left it up to him because we trusted him in his taste of music. He was able to coordinate with our sax player as well! He was able to provide us guidance planning the vibe throughout our wedding timeline with no pressure. All decisions were left to us! Fast-foward to our wedding night: It was a blast! He was able to cater to 3-4 different generations of people at our wedding! Even though we had a serviced bar, boba bar, and professional portraits at our wedding that our guests lined up for, the dance floor was always full! I wish I could go back in time to experience it all again, but videos and pictures will have to do.

We had not heard them live, which made me nervous, but we took a chance and booked them anyway. Best. Decision. Ever. Our wedding was a BLAST due in large part to the band keeping the dance floor packed the whole time. We were told by so many of our guests that The Mighty Untouchables were not only the best wedding band they had ever heard, but one of the best bands period (and that they would pay to see them live again, even outside the wedding context). We agree! Beyond their musical talent, The Mighty Untouchables were so kind to my husband and I on our big day, along with all of our guests. I am so thankful we got to work together. Just trust me: you won't regret The Mighty Untouchables. Thank you for helping make our wedding the most incredible day!

All I wanted was an epic dance party and a DJ who got my vibe. I didn't want all the cheesy clasics and sing alongs. My friend told me about Jimmy and we had a phone call and he knew the artists I liked and I got a great deal of comfort from just talking to him. He was very helpful with a few things we never thought of. On our wedding he day he was a great MC and his DJ skillz are on point! I knew he would crush it, but he definitely exceeded expectations.

  • Serves San Marcos, CA

Full custom theme weddings from San Francisco's leading indie DJs. Share your love of music with family and friends. We're here to help you make your wedding sound like the mixtape you exchanged when you first met.

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!

We danced for 4 hours straight and the dance floor was constantly packed.

Could not recommend him enough!!

We shared overall goals, and trusted Chris with the rest. The wedding day was a dream. The setup was streamlined, Chris was all over it, and executed exactly what we were looking for start to finish. He was kind with our loved ones who were taking the mic for speeches, and checked in with us throughout the event.

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!

Lark was absolutely incredible from the first phone call we had with her until the end of the wedding night. We cannot say enough good things about her. Before the wedding, she made sure to check in with us and follow up with playlist questions/specific songs she learned for us. She beautifully directed the entire night, acting as both the MC and incredible pianist/singer. Without a doubt, I would recommend her to everyone. She’s a beautiful soul inside and out with an angelic voice!

Hi, my name is Cris and I am the owner of Red Velvet DJ! I actually started DJ-ing at the age of 11 (1996). In my early 20's I transitioned to DJ-ing at various clubs & lounges throughout the Chicagoland area. (Where I grew up and lived till 2019) Some of them include Dragonfly, Bella Lounge, Republic, Wet, Waterhouse, and Rebel in Wrigleyville. I have focused primarily on weddings since 2009. My open format mixing style is very diverse, so I am able to blend all genres of music together! I live in Temecula with my wife, 2 children, and 2 dogs. I have a love for basketball, wine, long walks, and vacuuming around the house. =)

Louis Pettinelli Entertainment has musical ensembles that range from a soloist to a 15 piece party band, and everything in between!

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.
