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!

Ceremony DJs

San Francisco, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,999
  • Serves Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

Full custom theme weddings from San Francisco's leading indie DJs. Share your love of music with family and friends. We're here to help you make your wedding sound like the mixtape you exchanged when you first met.

After an initial discussion with Ceremony DJs it became clear that their prime mission was to fuel a zine-worthy wedding dance party. Not just any party but one where you're going to have anyone with a good sense of music come tell you that they're experiencing the "coolest wedding ever!!". No joke. If Mick Jagger was hanging around for the vibes I wouldn't have been surprised. Working with Ceremony DJs is like flipping through your good friend's record collection and saying "Oh yeah!! This has a great track on it..let's play this for sure!". I'm pretty sure the crew at Ceremony DJs could simply write for Rolling Stone or NME and make a fine living off their extensive knowledge of music and it's interplay with culture but no.. us folks planning weddings are blessed with their insight and taste being channeled for the purpose of throwing what you'll know is the coolest wedding you've ever been to. Prepare to have your faces melted :)

Marlon Aldana and the team did an AMAZING JOB at our daughter's wedding in Montana!!! We had guests ranging from 20 to 80 and they kept EVERYONE dancing. The dance floor was packed from song one until the end of the night. I have never been to a party or wedding where that happened. We were spilling off the dance floor! It was an epic evening where everyone was smiling, laughing and dancing!!! All of our guests commented on how great Marlon and the band were.

Keith is absolutley amazing. He gets to know you ans understand what you’re looking for. He feels the vibe of the wedding and matches it. He was great at announcing everything and keeping the guests going. My favorite part is that he actually mixes music and fades into the next song instead of just going from song to song. That was a nice surprise. My guests raved about him as well. He even came to our after party which we loved! Thank you again Keith, you’re truly amazing!!

I hired Jackie to sing at my wedding reception Dec 3rd 2022! When I heard some samples of her voice on YouTube, I knew she has was the one I wanted singing at my wedding!! She has a beautiful beautiful soulful voice that you can get lost in for days. Jackie was super flexible, shared her ideas and suggestions when I I didn't know what direction to go with songs ( wedding planning was stressful) but she made it easy to plan and make suggestions based on my song choices. I had her sing and play the piano for 3 different songs Father daughter dance, mother son dance, and cake cutting! Looking back, being someone who’s goal was to have more entertainment then speeches, id had her perform the whole time! Our guest raved about her voice, her performance, and how beautiful her renditions sounds. She was SO SO EASY TO WORK WITH.. With a wedding being crazy expensive.. She was accommodating to our budget! There’s no doubt I’d hire her again! She can sing anything! Love love love her

Lucky Devils Band

5.0

Los Angeles, CA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,020
  • Serves Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA

We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life! The Lucky Devils are a premium, customizable 3 to 14 piece band specializing in high-energy music–at a sensible price. Visit our website for upcoming showcase dates where you can see the band perform LIVE before booking. You can also tailor the dream band to suit your style and budget. Reach out to get started! We also offer Photo-Video services!

When my husband and I started planning our wedding two years ago, we agreed right away that we both wanted a live band for the reception - it was the most important thing for both of us, as we knew we wanted that kind of energy in the room. As we researched bands (mostly through wedding-themed websites like Wedding Wire and The Knot), we came across the Lucky Devils Band and saw all of their good reviews. There are a lot of other bands you can find in and around Los Angeles, but they had one really big advantage that most other bands didn’t - regularly scheduled showcases where you could see them perform live. LDB were actually the first band we seriously considered, but we still did our due diligence and looked into a lot of other bands. We said to each other - we can’t just book the first band we find! Well, we ended up doing just that, and it was the best decision we made! Not only do they make it easy for couples to come see them live, they are also talented, professional, and truly affordable. Mike Smirnoff, the musician/producer who was our main point of contact was super responsive, friendly, and remembered us from early on (we ended up attending a lot of their showcases because we just enjoyed hearing them live!). The small downside to the band is that because they are essentially a collective, you won’t necessarily know which musicians will be playing on the day of your event, however, Mike took into account all of our specific requests for certain members we saw at each of their showcases, and he secured everyone that we had wanted. We had a six-piece band, which included two versatile musician/singers (Andrew on guitar & vocals, and Jason on keyboard and vocals) so we got the most bang for our buck. Kaitlyn was amazing on vocals, and Mark was killer on sax, with Dimitri on bass and Mike himself on drums rounding out the band. We got SO many compliments from our guests all night long - including from his parents, who are VERY picky about music, and from other friends who are composers/musicians themselves. Our wedding was in March, right as the pandemic panic was kicking into high gear - and we were very stressed about the cancellations and our own fears, but when the music started playing, we forgot about all of it and danced until we couldn’t feel our feet. We highly recommend the Lucky Devils Band to all couples!! Get yourselves to a showcase and see for yourselves how great they are!!

Manny and his team were amazing. Before the wedding he made sure to ask if we wanted specific songs for different parts of the ceremony and reception. We didn’t have a ton of specific songs, but we made a list of music with the vibes we wanted. Manny took the list, ran with it, and really took care of us. The dance floor was packed all night! He even played Tagalog pop songs and managed sound for a Filipino folk dance group. We also loved the little details like the template for our photo booth photos, the lights for the dance floor, and our initials projected on the wall.

They did beautiful ceremony music, incredible sax jazz during cocktail hour to keep it classy. Then, they kept everyone engaged and entertained for the reception, from my aunt in a walker to my college friends twerking. We danced the night away but lost our voices from screaming along with the songs too. 10/10 you can’t go wrong with dueling pianos - DJs and wedding bands are out, Felix & Fingers is IN!

DJ MC Duke was amazing!!! Not only was he super accommodating to many last second changes, but he was able to make the whole wedding day process seamless and wonderful! We had a few meetings with him leading up to the big day and he made everything fool proof. We were pretty vague with song suggestions but that didn’t stop him from reading the crowd to a T and making the day great. He’s knowledgeable and sooooo great to work with. He even offered an option to have our officiant use a small, head mic so that he didn’t have to hold one for the whole ceremony, and that option comes with a light upgrade for the dance floor area. Y’all, just book him for your event- there’s a reason his ratings are so high all over. Thanks DJ MC Duke!!!! You Rock!

If there's one thing you can do to make your wedding memorable, it's hiring Tyler. He's so talented! We had him as our pianist as guests walked in and our saxophonist during cocktail hour/reception and he stole the show. All our guests were amazed at how well he handled the crowd, handled the live music and mp3 all while being the emcee. His list of music is quite wide range too so he can play for any crowd. We postponed our wedding 4 times and all four times, Tyler was so quick to respond giving us tips, ideas, and simple encouragement. He was definitely the smoothest vendor I had who even convinced the owner of the venue to allow live music during reception (there's a certain sound decibel limit at night). Overall, great experience. Hire this guy, you won't regret it.

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. I am the Resident DJ for Première Los Angeles (premierelosangeles on IG). 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 person). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

Trey was our wedding DJ in January at the Westlake Village Inn. Trey was amazing - very communicative, perfect setlist, and helped make our wedding perfect. Trey conducted himself with utmost professionalism and played an integral role in creating the best weekend of our life. I cannot recommend Trey enough. If you are in the LA area looking for a DJ, do not hesitate to reach out to Trey. Words do not do enough in expressing how grateful we are and how amazing Trey was. Highly, highly recommend.

Music is everything. It’s your history, your identity, and your joy. It’s what moves you on the dance floor and what moves you to tears. Quite simply: it’s the most important decision you’ll make at your wedding. All Ears DJ is a premier entertainment group that boasts a ten-deep crew of highly-skilled DJs and musicians. Don’t settle for anything less than a DJ who can wow audiences with perfect blends, mashups and song selections. Talent matters, and All Ears DJs have shown up & showed out at more than 1000 weddings in the San Francisco Bay Area during the past decade.

cking a proper DJ for my wedding was probably what I was most nervous about, but I’m glad we found Richard because he killed it. We strayed a bit from the stereotypical wedding songs and instead went straight into party mode after our first dances. Richard kept the dance floor shaking until 1 am and blended our suggestions and “must plays” seamlessly with other bangers from his repertoire. If house, disco, booty bangers, and crowd pleasers is your jam, Richard has you covered. His communication was also always prompt leading up to the event and delivered the professional you’d expect.

Hiring AMP was the all time BEST decision we could have made for our wedding! We had immediate comfort and trust in them from the first time we spoke, and the show they put on for our day was better than we ever could have imagined. They were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process of planning and had no problem with even the most far-fetched ideas (including my wife surprising me by getting up and playing the drums with the band). If we asked each and every person what their favorite part of our wedding was, hands down it was the music. Ana, Jimmy, and the rest of the band had everyone dancing the entire night without question. It was hit after hit after hit with the whole crowd! So many people rushed to us to ask how we got so lucky finding them. Ana and Jimmy truly respected and acknowledged everyone’s pronouns and made everyone in our family and party seen and comfortable through the entire process. AMP put their entire heart and soul into every performance. Their passion is so evident with each song they play, and their energy is just contagious. You cannot help but smile and dance throughout their whole set. And the TALENT! The talent is through the roof! All of our guests were completely shocked at the level of professionalism and talent AMP brought to our event. I cannot stress enough how utterly amazing AMP is. Do yourself a huge favor and book them, you will not regret it for a second.

DJ Demchuk (Daniel) did an absolutely amazing job during our wedding! The dance floor was bumping all night and we got SO many compliments on how good the music was, including from our older guests. Both the CA team and Daniel himself were super professional, kind, and communicative to work with throughout the planning process and during the night itself. We asked for some edits to our first dance song and Daniel made it happen flawlessly. He also sent us a full track list from the wedding within a few days so we can relive the party over and over. We could not have been happier with how everything turned out, and would recommend this DJ to anyone looking!
