DJ Dominiq 
Rating: 5.0 (39 reviews)
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves Cardiff By The Sea, CA

My name is Dominiq and I have been in the wedding industry since 2006. I absolutely LOVE what I do. My middle name is Jakob so my name is literally DJ, I was born for this. I have 6 sisters so not only do I love what I do, but I believe in it as a hopeless romantic at heart. I enjoy bringing together families and friends to forget about their problems for a day and just enjoy life and celebrate.

Wedding was 1/9/2020 . Our officiant didn't add our ring exchange to our ceremony. (We had a buddist ceremony); The chaos of a strict photography schedule kept my husband and I busy. But I was so upset that moment was not going to be in photos. Dom somehow knew I needed that moment to complete. He snuck it in before our cake cutting and I was overjoyed to have him officiate that for us. He was spot on with the playlist and songs matching to our chosen genre. He did more than we asked for even when our venue coordinator dropped the ball on us with not posting seating charts. He is the best and wouldn't pick anyone else to trust to DJ/MC a special event .

  • DJ
  • Starts at $995
  • Serves Cardiff By The Sea, CA

I’m a San Diego-based DJ/MC with 15+ years of experience, and I love what I do. I aim to make each event feel personal, fun, and real. I’ve worked hundreds of weddings and events of all sizes, from intimate gatherings to 1,000+ guests. As a musician and performer, I bring a creative approach to my DJing. I’m confident on the mic, easy to work with, and focused on making sure you and your guests are having a great time from start to finish. I’ve worked with couples from all kinds of backgrounds and cultures and have even DJed weddings internationally. I read the room, keep things flowing, set the vibe and make sure the night feels like you.

Michael was wonderful to work with. He’s so organized, laidback and talented. Leading up to the wedding, Michael helped us plan all of the important song choices and even gave us some good ideas along the way. When it came to the day of the wedding, he did a fantastic job of keeping the day flowing smoothly and made sure the vibes were perfect. He made all of the important announcements throughout the day and he made sure our guests were hyped for the grand entrance!!! It was awesome. We had so much fun on the dance floor and our guests loved him. I’ve been receiving texts all week asking for his contact. Highly recommend!!! Thank you, Michael!

Awarded Best of Zola
Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

We had a fabulous wedding, and DJ Valen was an incredible partner from start to finish. She made planning easy and fun, guided us in choosing meaningful songs for each moment, and absolutely nailed the vibe on the day. Multiple guests told us how perfectly she curated a lively, danceable atmosphere—our dance floor was full from the first song to the last. She even got everyone dancing the hora (most of our guests were non-Jewish and new to it!) with clear cues and great energy. We felt completely at ease and well taken care of the entire time. Couldn’t recommend DJ Valen more—professional, thoughtful, and SO much fun

Awarded Best of Zola
From our first conversation with The LoveTap, we knew we had found our DJ. Conner was so easy to work with during planning. He not only listened to our ideas but he actually helped us make them better. When we weren't sure about our grand entrance and had asked his thoughts, he knew exactly what to do. He also helped with our father/daughter dance and made the song the perfect length. One thing that stood out was when I recorded a tribute to my mom instead of doing a speech, and Conner mixed it into a song that played perfectly during the ceremony. He didn't stop there either. During the reception, he surprised us by weaving part of my sister's MOH speech into Promiscuous Girl, and honestly, it was one of the coolest moments of the night. Our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The dance floor stayed packed the entire time, with people telling us afterward that they literally never left it. Hiring Conner was such a great decision, and we'd recommend The LoveTap to any couple looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your day special and helping you throw the best party ever.

He’s clearly very experienced and knew how to get the crowd energized and keep the dance floor packed all night. Their intuitive sense of the vibe and flow of the evening was spot on, and they kept the music going seamlessly through all the key moments. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding celebration so memorable. We also booked a photo bus through him and I highly recommend that.

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.

I highly recommend GE production for DJ events! Jimmy was our DJ and he was great. We got a smaller dance floor because they say around 50-70% of the guests are at the dancefloor at a time but my guests were on the dancefloor the entire night. Everyone loved the playlist! Jimmy also went above and beyond producing a remix of three songs for the father and bride dance. I was also very reassured knowing in our consultation call that they match you with a DJ that best suits your event. Great DJ!

Brian Pierini, Saxophone was the best decision we ever made for our wedding. From start to finish, everyone kept telling us that the saxophone player was so good! Like literally everyone we talked to would say nothing but good things about his playing. We had guests come over from the Philippines and he played a few Filipino songs during cocktail hour, which we really appreciated because it made our guests from the Philippines feel more welcome and acknowledged. Brian's communication style was fast, reliable, easy, and collaborative, and the quality of his work and value was the best out there - it was worth every penny!

We loved working with DJ John at our wedding! From the very beginning, he was super personable and easy to talk to — he really got to know us and our style, which made everything feel so effortless. The music portal Vibo, was so easy to use for uploading songs and highlighting our “must plays,” which took a lot of stress out of planning. He knew exactly how to read the room and keep the energy going all night. He killed it at our reception with the Loteria game and worked with my Dad to MC the game. Wonderful to work with and highly recommend.

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Cardiff By The Sea, CA

I’ve spent the past 12 years DJing over 400 weddings, and every one of them has shaped my signature approach: luxury without stuffiness, energy without gimmicks. As a multi-award-winning DJ featured in national publications, I bring more than music… I bring an atmosphere. From the moment your guests arrive to the last song of the night, everything feels intentional, seamless, and unforgettable. My mixes are live, my MC work is polished, and my goal is simple: to make your wedding the one everyone talks about long after the lights come up.

I mean this from the bottom of my heart... If you do not book DJ Cameron Martin for your wedding, you're missing out big time. I literally can't think of a time where I've had more fun. The dance floor was PACKED from the moment he opened the dance floor until the last song of the night. My husband was even crowd surfing at one point?! It was straight out of a movie and we are didn't even have a crowd of traditionally crazy party people. Cameron made sure that each guest of every age was having the time of their life. He read the room flawlessly and somehow knew just what to play and how/when to seamlessly transition without ever even hopping on the mic during the open dance portion (not one corny line was uttered). He's an industry icon (every one of my other vendors knew exactly who he was) and a musical genius and I give him the strongest possible recommendation to any and everyone until the day I die. that's kinda dramatic, but that's how seriously amazing he was.

Hey there, I'm DJ Preston! My DJ journey began at 15, and it's been an incredible ride ever since. Starting in 1995, I spun tracks for school dances, bars, and clubs, then moved into radio, spending 8 years on air. I've performed at award shows, corporate events, weddings, and traveled the country for nightclub gigs, even sharing stages with big-name artists. Recently, I was honored as one of the best wedding DJs in San Diego by California Wedding Day in 2024. I love creating unforgettable atmospheres where everyone can dance and have an amazing time.

We interviewed several DJ's before settling on DJ Preston for our wedding at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We were impressed with Preston's responses to our interview, we could tell he cared about attention to detail and enjoyed his craft. On the day of the wedding Preston was an absolute professional. The music was the perfect volume from pre-ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner to dancing. The audio for all speeches was perfect as well. I heard from several of our guests "the DJ was great!" so what else is there to say? I didn't have much banter with Preston before or after the wedding, but if you're looking for a professional who pays attention to the details and delivers a great set, then Preston is your guy! He did a great job reading the vibe for our dollar dance and facilitating an amazing night. Thanks Preston!!

New to Zola, but trusted at weddings and events throughout Southern California for OVER 15 YEARS, 500+ WEDDINGS. Jukebox Entertainment Live blends high energy live musicianship with seamless DJ coverage to create unforgettable celebrations and packed dance floors. Live band energy. Seamless DJ flow. Unforgettable weddings.

Do not hesitate...book JukeBox!!!. I promise you will be in the best hands. I was lucky enough to experience JukeBox firsthand at my brother-in-law’s wedding, and I am not exaggerating when I say the band was THE highlight of the night. As a guest, my experience with them was a 10000/10. The range and variety of music, the talent of every single member, and the sheer level of performance brought so much fun and energy to the night. It truly felt like a private concert! Guests were crowding the front of the stage, every age group was dancing, and I genuinely did not want to leave the dance floor. After that night, I knew my husband and I had to have them at our wedding. When it came time to book entertainment, we didn’t even consider anyone else. Now speaking as a bride: Jon, David, and the entire team behind the scenes are professional, kind, responsive, organized, and genuinely wonderful people. Meeting with Jon to plan everything was seamless. We felt comfortable right away, everything was explained clearly, and there were absolutely no surprises. They truly care about giving you the best possible experience and work with you to make your vision come to life. Trust can be hard to come by when you’re wedding planning. You’re spending so much money, and it’s honestly nerve-wracking not knowing if everything will live up to what you’re hoping for — especially with such a huge day on the line. But JukeBox is NOT a vendor you need to second-guess. They are worth every single penny!!! David is an incredible MC who kept the entire evening flowing effortlessly. We incorporated a Filipino money dance into our reception, and I was so unsure about what music to use. David patiently worked through my many emails, helped guide me through the decision, and I never once had to second-guess that it would all come together smoothly. On the wedding day, it was seamless. They are a well oiled machine and they operate so flawlessly and are truly such a driving force to the party!! During the planning process, David was always responsive and attentive, and everything felt completely tailored to us. He even professionally cut and edited our first dance and father-daughter dance songs, and they turned out perfectly. Our dance floor was packed all night long & guests are still talking about how amazing the band was just like they still talk about them from my brother-in-law’s wedding. We cannot recommend JukeBox highly enough. They made our wedding reception unforgettable and truly brought our dream celebration to life. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!!

No two playlists are ever the same with this DJ as she thoughtfully prepares for each event based off her client's musical tastes and later builds off the crowd's reaction.

Lily DJ-ed at our wedding in May 2024, and we cannot recommend her enough! She was friendly, responsive, organized, and clearly had a lot of valuable experience in the industry. She did an amazing job using our playlist as inspiration to keep everyone on the dance floor. She read the dance floor really well, making adjustments quickly to maintain the right energy. The vibes were great (all thanks to her!!), and many of our guests made it a point to let us know she did a great job. A friend even said DJ Tiger Lily was the best DJ they'd ever seen at a wedding, which was a high compliment! We highly recommend her for your events, and we are definitely keeping her in mind for any future events!

With many years of experience, DJ Misha brings a refined, curated touch to weddings. His style blends dance, house, disco and EDM, always tailored to your vibe. Misha works closely with couples to create custom playlists and offers a seamless planning process with clear communication. For an elevated experience, ask about his DJ + live saxophone option—perfect for bringing the dance floor to life. Passionate, professional, and deeply musical, DJ Misha creates unforgettable moments through sound.

Choosing a DJ for your wedding can feel really overwhelming, and can truly make or break the atmosphere of your day. We knew we didn’t want the typical “wedding DJ” experience with overplayed cliché songs. We were looking for someone who could bring a more modern, dance floor–oriented energy—someone who understood our love for EDM, disco, and a wide range of genres, while still making it fun and accessible for guests of all ages. DJ Misha absolutely nailed it. We worked with him to share playlists of songs we wanted to hear, and he used that direction to create the perfect soundtrack for the night. He seamlessly blended everything from disco and deep house to sing-along crowd favorites in a way that kept the energy high and the dance floor full all night long. Guests of every generation were up dancing, it truly brought everyone together and made the night unforgettable. In addition, DJ Misha also handled all of the sound for our ceremony and reception. We had an outdoor ceremony at Scripps Seaside Forum on a very windy day, and he took care of all the audio setup for our vows and speeches, making sure everything went off smoothly. He also managed the transitions throughout the day—from the ceremony to cocktail hour to indoor dancing—flawlessly and without any stress on our end. He was organized, easy to work with, and reliable, which gave us the peace of mind to be fully present and enjoy every moment. Everything ran so smoothly, and we never had to worry about a thing. If you're looking for a DJ who brings modern energy and great taste, we highly recommend DJ Misha! Thank you, Misha, for making our wedding so unforgettable!

For over 25 years, I’ve been turning music into memories. From luxury brand events with Sephora, Macy’s and H&M to unforgettable intimate gatherings, I’ve performed at every type of event there is—but nothing compares to my favorite: the beauty of a wedding day. My journey began as a kid mesmerized by rhythm, inspired by how music could move people’s hearts. That passion has only deepened with time. Today, I bring that same childlike wonder and hard-earned mastery to every couple’s love story. For me, DJing isn’t just sound—it’s emotion, connection, and the art of capturing the heartbeat of the crowd that will be remembered forever.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’re both huge music people, so finding the right DJ was a big deal for us. We didn’t want someone who’d just press play — we wanted a real vibe. Brendan completely got it. He mixed everything so seamlessly it felt like a live concert. The transitions, the drops, even the slower moments — it all felt intentional. Before, I worried the energy would dip after dinner. Instead, it just kept building. People were sweating, laughing, losing their minds in the best way.

I hired Cheap Event Lighting Rental for an event at my son’s school and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Charlie was amazing to work with—he showed up early to go over the setup, took the time to understand our space and even added a few extra lights to make sure everything was perfect. His prices were very reasonable and the service was top-notch. The outdoor lighting looked fantastic and I would absolutely hire him again!
