DJ Ryan was AMAZING at our wedding! DJ Tempoe Entertainment as a whole is very organized and always made me feel comfortable and confident. Ryan is a music genius and knew exactly what to play to get the party started. He also was very cooperative in my song requests. For instance, I told him I really wanted to focus on 70s/80s hits and 2010s nostaglia, and he totally nailed it!

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.

Coming from a family of people who love to dance our DJ choice was very important to me. Keith was the best choice! He did an amazing job of combining the hispanic culture and Spanish speakers from my husband’s side and upbeat pop beats from my side. 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. Not to mention the lights made it feel sooooo bougie too!!! He also does a flawless ceremony and dinner service. Killed the entire ceremony from the moment he got there till the moment he left! Would hire him over and over again!

Awarded Best of Zola
We had a great experience with Second Song! Planning was super easy with the Rob team during the 9ish months leading up to our wedding. On our wedding day, DJ Shredy was THE ICON of the night. We had built the playlist for the pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner, and he very much followed that our wishes. We really appreciated that because music is a huge part of our relationship. He was also very responsive over email and phone. He had a great personality on the day and was the perfect blend of an MC who was communicative but not overly on top of the mic. During the dance party portion of the evening, he rightfully threw in choices of his own that we hadn't thought of and I am so glad he did. He brought life to the party and we have gotten compliments since our wedding night about how much fun everyone had and how perfect the dance floor was. We are so grateful to him and the Second Song team. Thank you!

A true gem and a wedding must!! One of our biggest priorities for our wedding was ensuring our guests had the best time and Seth made sure of that! The dancefloor was packed all night, with our family and friends singing and dancing to our favorite songs. One of our favorite things about working with Seth is how he takes the time to get to know the couples he works with. He listens to your ideas and works to make your music vision come to life. He also has an incredible way of changing the music to keep the momentum going! The music was perfectly curated from start to finish!! Seth was also the emcee for our wedding and worked with us to ensure proper pronunciation of names, to understand how we envisioned every moment, and was patient and kind throughout the planning process! He's also incredibly gracious with guests and honors the couple's vision when it comes to song musts and don'ts. If you need guidance or suggestions, he's happy to help too!! If you'd like a dancefloor that is filled all night because the music just keeps getting better and better, then booking DJ Seth Vital is an absolute must! We had the best time dancing the night away with our loved ones and we are forever grateful to Seth for making it happen!!

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!

My wife and I are so glad that we chose Tony to DJ/MC our wedding! In the months leading up to our big day, Tony was always available to meet with us throughout the planning process. His insights and experience were key to bringing everything together; he thought of so many details that we hadn't thought of, I really don't know what we would have done without him. Tony and his wife Jess are very friendly and easy to work with. It felt like we were working with our friends and not strangers that were there just to do a job. They really cared about making our wedding the best night of our lives, and it really was! Tony was great at reading the room and playing music that kept everyone on the dance floor. I saw everyone dancing, kids, adults, friends, even some people that I never thought would be out there on the dance floor! Tony made everyone feel welcome. I would definitely recommend Tony to anyone searching for a DJ. Tony and Jess, Thank you SOOO MUCH!!!! -J&J

DJ Shane was amazing! He helped create the perfect mood and soundtrack for our big day, was super professional and personable at each step, and I couldn't be more happy! He had the best attitude, played the best songs, at the best time, and even got through a few of our crazy traditions (the dabke dance and soul train dance off). Sadly (or happily?), we won't be getting married again but, if we did, we'd 100% choose DJ Shane and Dash again.

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!!

We have planned and DJed many clients’ weddings and events, but it wasn’t after we planned our own wedding in November 2018 that we understood the true stressful reality of planning. Because of this and because we own this business together, we empathize with the strain wedding planning sometimes puts on engaged couples.

I am writing this review wayyyy too late (a little over 2 years after my wedding) and it has been eating me away inside because I need to give Michelle(aka Haute Mobile Disco) all the praise she deserves. As a wedding planner myself, I had worked with Michelle and Ian previously and found them to be so sweet and easy to work with as well as extremely professional. All of their paperwork to fill out in advance for which genres of music I wanted was super easy and helpful to get exactly the vibes we were looking for. They created the PERFECT playlist and had my guests on the dancefloor literally the entire night. I added a live Saxophone which was the perfect addition. He was incredible. It created such a fun and interactive experience for my guests that they are still raving about. Michelle was so flexible with all my crazy song choices, a few which weren’t easy to find, as well as my idea to have a re-introduction when I chopped off my hair during the reception and came back out in a sequin jumpsuit. She did the perfect introduction and made the dancefloor feel like a night at the Grammy’s instead of a humble backyard wedding. Cannot recommend Michelle and her team enough, they were everything we could have asked for and brought the best energy and vibes we were looking for!
