Working with Ryan (DJ Tempoe), Joe, and Marlon from Tempoe Entertainment DJs was such an amazing experience from beginning to end. As a wedding planner, I work with my fair share of wedding vendors, and it's easy to tell early on which ones are not only professional and skilled at what they do, but also friendly, kind, and easygoing good people to work with. From the beginning, Ryan and Joe were both so communicative and responsive, making all the pre-event planning a breeze. On the wedding day, Ryan, Joe, and Marlon all brought such professionalism and good energy to the day that kept the bride and groom, all their guests, as well as all us fellow vendors calm and at ease throughout the event - even when faced with some unique challenges. 10/10 I highly recommend hiring Tempoe Entertainment for all your DJ/MC, officiating, and photobooth needs - you'll be happy you did! :)

Working with Joey was an unbelievable pleasure. My now husband and I were quite nervous about hiring a DJ (naturally given it was our first time!), but the second I found and spoke to Joey over the phone in an introductory call, I knew we were in good hands. His warmth, charisma and incredible professional experience was apparent, even during those first few minutes. Joey is an unbelievably talented performer (he played live cello at our ceremony) and a well seasoned DJ. What we didn’t know when we first hired him, was just how much help Joey would be in helping us schedule and orchestrate the flow of our full wedding. We had multiple calls and meetings, well before the wedding day, where Joey kept us informed and confident all throughout. He helped us coordinate the music not only to the most important parts of the wedding, but also to all in the in-betweens, making sure that good vibes were always flowing throughout the whole thing. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to make it all happen. Joey is also someone who is incredibly organized and pays great attention to detail and timing. He kept things moving (even though that was outside the scope of his work) and made sure everything was on schedule. Even when we ended up going overtime (not to the fault of Joey but family getting too carried away with speeches!), Joey quickly and expertly adjusted his set and made the final dance party something we will never forget. I truly mean this when I say don’t look any further. Don’t hesitate in hiring Joey—if we had to do it all over again, we would pick Cello Joe, every single time. —and to Joey: thank you so much for everything. You truly made our wedding a day we will never forget.

First of all, the booking process with AZBESTDJ Team was a breeze . We booked directly with DJ Daniel, the owner and team leader of AZBESTDJ Team. About a month before our wedding, he let us know he would personally be our DJ on our big day which made us even more excited. A few weeks before the wedding, Daniel took the time to go over our music ideas, from the ceremony to the dance floor. On our wedding day, he timed our processional music perfectly and gave a heartfelt introduction before my dad's toast that meant a lot to our family.

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. 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 coordinator as they are different). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

Awarded Best of Zola
Literally from the first interaction, Trey was thoroughly professional. We knew instantly that we'd be in good hands during the process, and he maintained through the big day. With Trey, we always had clarity over next steps, and we also got as much flexibility as we could ever hope for. We had a slightly unusual (or, unconventional) ceremony in a couple of ways, and Trey handled every request without any issue. Lastly, and most importantly for a DJ, he nailed the music. We felt like he "got" us while also filling in the gaps appropriately. A true professional, and we feel fortunate having him on the deck for our celebration.

Living Jade was the best decision we made for our wedding vendors. They played at our engagement party in Santa Barbara and our actual wedding in San Francisco. Steve encountered an issue with a band member. The singer got sick the day before the wedding, but he found a replacement that was outstanding. His network of musicians allowed him to resolve a major issue. My husband and I were happy that our contract was respected. On top of that, the energy of the band was amazing on stage. We were so happy that our guests were all on the dance floor. I never sweat so much on a dance floor.

I am willing to help with tasks such as planning, sharing contacts, or being event coordinator. My ability to play various styles of music and interact with any crowd makes me the logical choice. Clients are encouraged to incorporate their unique tastes and culture into their event. "I love interacting with people, meeting new people, and helping create an atmosphere that enables people to have an experience they will never forget."

From our very first conversation through the last song of the night, JJ was organized, responsive, and genuinely invested in getting our day right. He sent over a detailed music and info document, built and split our Spotify playlists into cocktail, dinner, and dance sets, and checked in regularly to make sure nothing slipped through the cracks. When we forgot a detail, he caught it. When we had questions about amplification for our string quartet or audio for our videographer, he had a solution ready before we'd finished asking. He also ran a photo booth for us, matched our design, and handled all of it without us having to think about it. And then there was the party. JJ read the room perfectly and kept the dance floor full all night. If you want a DJ who takes the planning as seriously as the performance, book JJ. We couldn't recommend him more.
