    We had the Traveling Discotheque for our wedding for DJ services for ceremony and celebration and couldn't recommend them enough. Rian put together an amazing string band for our cocktail hour. Our guests LOVED it! Perfect music for guests to mingle and chat, and have beautiful live entertainment as well. We got so many compliments for the weeks after our celebration. Rian really balanced the music we love with the vibe of the night- read the room and made it so fun for everyone. We have a lot of musicians in our family so finding a true musician was essential. His contract was super easy, made planning a breeze and was so professional. We were so hoping to find someone with great taste that we would conenct with-- Rian matched our style all the way and made it so fun for our guests. 100% wish we could do it all over again to relive the night. The absolute best!

    Rian and his team are absolutely phenomenal. My husband and I were drawn to his great music taste and passion for music, but were sold on him after our consultation call— he really is as cool and passionate about music as it seems! Rian also made the entire process easy and fun! The questionnaire given before the wedding left us at ease and gave us the opportunity to share our preferences and tastes. He captured our essence with his selection of music. After hearing the brief mention of Star Wars in our vows, he threw out a Star Wars remix during the dance party without us even asking for it. That made my husband’s night! The moment I saw my father, who has NEVER danced in his life, sober dancing his heart out, I knew that everyone else also knew how great of a DJ/artist Rian was. Dancing the night away to an incredible music selection, beautiful lighting, immaculate vibes, and the coolest people mixing music was a highlight of our wedding! Our friends have not stopped talking about how fun the dancing was. I cannot recommend Rian enough, and hope to see him again at our friends’ future weddings. Thank you for everything!! -Ellie & Colby, 10/28/23

    Traveling Discotheque was absolutely amazing, and we could not be happier to have hired them for our wedding!! The entire team brought an amazing energy and warmth to our wedding. In every conversation we had leading up to the wedding, Rian was thorough, thoughtful, and dedicated to helping us have the wedding of our dreams. Rian took the playlist we made for the reception and ran with it- the vibes were phenomenal! So many guests told us afterwards how much they loved the music, and the dance floor was always packed! It was honestly the best party we could have imagined. In addition to the cocktail hour and reception music, we also booked Mariah to play cello for our ceremony- we were blown away by her beautiful renditions of the songs we picked. If you are looking to hire a DJ and/or musicians for your wedding, we 100% recommend Traveling Discotheque!

    We had a memorable and positive experience with Rian as our wedding DJ. He stands out from the rest of the crowd with his unique style and personality (the 70s tuxedo helps!). Oddly enough his website, which is refreshingly quirky and interesting, made him a top option when we were DJ searching. From our initial call, he was very fun to get to know, and while satisfyingly honest about personal tastes, is still more than happy to fulfill your vision and preferences. He also offers uplighting as an add-on, which was an absolute steal compared to what our venue was offering. We worked with him a few weeks prior to the wedding to get an abridged cut of our first dance song, and Rian thoughtfully provided us several edits to choose from. For the reception, we created a playlist of starting suggestions, and he did a great job playing a mix of our recommended tracks with a blend of his own selections across a wide range of genres. At one point a cousin shouted from the dance floor, "How is this all music I grew up with!?!?!" amid the opening beats of Be My Lover (what a great pick, we didn't suggest it but wow, did it fit perfectly). We also come from immigrant families, and so we wanted to include some non-Western music in the mix. Rian had taken the time to dig up some classic nostalgic standards from our families' cultures and play them during cocktail hour. Every single "must play" was played, every "do not play" was respected to a T. We danced so much, we even forgot to get dessert. He and his assistant Sam were super polite and effusive and made our wedding night fly by. Thank you guys!
