Golden Bell Music was worth EVERY penny AND MORE! It's been 6 months since my wedding and I'm STILL getting comments on how much fun all our guests had! Even my mother-in-law who doesn't dance did NOT sit down! I'm Lebanese and my husband is Israeli, so I had asked for help mixing songs to combine our cultures and then move into more western music. I'm still getting sooooo many compliments from our families on how we were able to combine our traditions and our music! And our guests LOST IT when they came out on the dance floor with their instruments and danced with us! I did this in lieu of a zaffet group because i wanted something more unique -- in lebanon a drumline would follow the bride and groom and dance/perform for guests -- and it was definitely the right choice!!! On top of their amazing performance, Marlon was **insanely helpful** both leading up to the day and on the day. I didn't have a wedding planner and was making last minute decisions/timeline changes myself the day of. I couldn't have done it so smoothly without Marlon being so helpful as an MC and being so willing to roll with it! He was absolutely fantastic!! Cut your budget wherever you can to make sure you can hire them. It's SO worth it! Thank you Golden Bell Music for making it the best day of summer (so i've been told. multiple times. by different guests.)!! I don't know for what occasion, but I'm 100% going to find a reason to hire them again.

I used this company for my dj, Photo Booth and cold sparklers and lighting for my wedding at Bal Hai and I was 10/10 happy with their services! I paid extra to have an attendant stay so I could use the cold sparklers multiple times which was great! Him and the photo booth attendant were both very kind and easy to work with. DJ Erin was fantastic! I had some technical issues with the website not allowing me to add my songs online but after our phone calls I felt like I could trust him and was able to share my Spotify playlist to him which made my life so much earlier and less stressful. He edited a song for me perfectly for my walk down the aisle and was always quick to respond ahead of the wedding if I had a question. I very much would trust this company in the future and I wouldn’t change one tiny thing about my wedding! A dj can make or break a party and he made mine! I got lots of compliments about the music selection and variety of songs and genres that were played. Also Nicole made my planning process very easy and was always quick to respond to questions via email as well.

Raymond (Ray) was great! Very nice, on time and he definitely felt the vibe of the room and played music based on our guests. A lot of our guests were older (millennial and baby boomers). He played songs on our list and accepted request so that everyone could dance to music they like! Which was great! We received nothing but great compliments other than older people took Tylenol the next day as their knees were hurting from dancing so much! Lol

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
I thought hiring a DJ was just about someone showing up and playing songs, but DJ Heartbeat (Bren) made it so much more than that. He kept the energy perfect, the timing smooth, and honestly he made the night stress-free for us. Before, I was so anxious about all the little details, both the music and our first dance and everything else but during the wedding, I didn’t think about them once. It all went so perfectly. That’s how good he is! A

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!

Beyond his exceptional skill, Jeff was a joy to work with. He was professional and ensured the music was tailored to our preferences.

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 Carlsbad, 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!!

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!

Weddings for me are the most rewarding events we play. I take very seriously the fact that the couple has entrusted us to be a part of the biggest day of their lives and there is nothing better than hearing the entertainment was the highlight of the reception. From allowing the couple to choose exactly what they want to hear from our song list to allowing them or their party goers to be a part of the show, my goal is to work with them to make sure the band exceeds their expectations. This approach has allowed the 80'z All-Stars and MSE to flourish for 20+ years.

As a live event production company, I have had the opportunity to work with thousands of artist over the years. I have had the pleasure to work with The 80'z All-Stars/Mama Said Entertainment for over 10 years at multiple venues and occasions. Their professionalism, ease to work with and overall performance energy is not surpassed.
