Mark Addington Events

5.0

Mountain House, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600
  • Serves Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

I’m Mark Addington, owner, founder, emcee, DJ, public speaker, and most importantly…creative at heart. I started my DJ career over 20 years ago for fun and fell in love with it along the way. My goal is to make this choice a simple, informed and fun part of the wedding process. I’m here to communicate and plan pre-wedding so you and your guests can leave it all on the dancefloor the day of the wedding.

We were first introduced to Mark via word of mouth and we are so happy to have stuck with this decision. He was extremely attentive, fun, and professional throughout the entire process leading to our event. During our preparation, we communicated with Mark a few times over email, phone and zoom to share our ideas and refine details. He is extremely positive and was open to our suggestions. Whether it was playing music related to movie soundtracks, pop culture, or K-pop, he was more than willing to have fun with us. His attention to detail also did not go unnoticed as he would also make sure that he finds the specific versions of songs that you request. He was also extremely helpful with adjusting music as well. For example, we wanted to cut a section out and slow down our first dance song. He was able to do this for us perfectly and also helped provide a copy of the file for us to practice. These may be small details but were important to us. Ultimately, you cannot go wrong with working with Mark. He was absolutely amazing at what he does and will do everything that he can to make your dream event come true! Thank you, Mark. We are so happy to have worked with you.

Not only is Jackie a phenomenal artist (seriously, so talented!), but she is such a great person to work with. As a wedding planner, I work with many vendors throughout the years and Jackie remains one of my favorite vendors to communicate with. She is professional, quick to respond, fair, and polite.

We worked with DJ JaronB for our October 2023 wedding ceremony and reception. He was great! There was a thorough planning document provided which helped us break down the music we wanted to hear into sections of the day. We had a beach ceremony and the equipment that was set up for the ceremony was loud enough for us hear the music and what people were saying on the mic even tho the ocean was really loud. The reception was fun! Vibes were great for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We recommend working w DJ JaronB, thanks for adding so much fun to our event!

Joey was PHENOMENAL! His excitement is contagious. We trusted him completely and gave him very little guidance on what we wanted and he read the room and kept us dancing all night. My only request for him was a pop punk throw back towards the end of the night and he delivered beyond my wildest dreams. He will read your notes. He will give you more. I cannot thank him enough for making our wedding so epic. We love you dude, seriously - you played a massive role in giving us a night we will never forget. The entire process with this company was so easy - literally the best vendor we hired for the night. Hire them. You will not regret it.

WOW, we cannot thank The Golden Bell team enough for our beautiful wedding!!! Truly, when we began wedding planning - our #1 priority was having an epic party and music, which is why we hired Golden Bell. We were SO excited for our big day and knew Marlon Aldana and team would execute flawlessly -- But Marlon and Sebastian really knocked it out of the park and exceeded our expectations! Our dance floor was going all night and so many of our guests and vendors were in awe of Marlon and Sebastian!!! We will be singing Golden Bell's praises forever! But really, Marlon and the Golden Bell team were truly the best vendor we could have asked for. From the seamless MC'ing to the amazing music during cocktail, ceremony and reception -- holy crap, they really nailed. The team at Golden Bell are the most thoughtful crew, can read a room and bring energy, and execute flawlessly! Zero regrets, only high praises for Marlon and Golden Bell!!!

Funk Almighty is an amazing band that has the greatest potential to actually make it big. They are extremely talented musicians and singers and have the greatest presence. Everyone was asking us all night for their information as they couldn’t believe how incredible they were. Their stage presence is out of this world that they even had a guitar and sax solo in the middle of the dance floor! I have absolutely nothing but amazing things to say about them!
