DJ Hecktik Inc.

Carpinteria, CA
  • DJ

In just over a decade, Hecktik has established himself as one of Santa Barbara County’s most skilled and popular turntablist and club DJ. Hecktik’s combined experienced as a radio show producer and large venue performer has helped solidify his reputation as a high energy and professional talent. From the studio to the stage, Hecktik has performed and recorded with hip hop legends like Too Short and GZA from Wu Tang Clan. For corporate events and chic wedding receptions, DJ Hecktik works to create a custom music atmosphere keeping guests and clients moving.

DJ Hecktik (Josh) was the absolute man. We gave him a list of songs, and he did the rest. His transition skills are the stuff of legends. He had the dance floor rocking all night! He's very versatile too. He switched from oldies to throwback rap bangers to slow dance songs seamlessly! Everyone kept saying "the DJ is killing it". He's also just genuinely a good dude! I felt very comfortable on calls with him and was very happy to have him MC my wedding day. If you are lucky enough to book DJ Hecktik, I cannot recommend enough!

We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service provided by Alli – Alexandra Wallace for our engagement and wedding photos. From the initial consultation to the final delivery (within 30 days of the date!) of the photos, every step of the process was handled smooth, organized and her creativity is amazing! On the day of the wedding, Alli went above and beyond to capture every special moment. She was well-prepared, but also incredibly personable, making everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Her ability to blend into the background while still capturing candid, intimate moments was truly impressive. We love her style each and every photo. What sets Alli apart is her attention to detail and dedication. She knew the perfect spots for our first look, bridal shots, and family photos. She also managed to capture the essence and emotions of the day beautifully, providing us with a stunning collection of photos that we will cherish forever. As promised, the final photos were delivered well before the promised date. The quality of the images exceeded our expectations; every photo was vibrant, well-composed, and perfectly edited. It was evident that she spent time on each photo and took ownership over her work. We highly recommend Alli and her team to any couple looking for a wedding photographer who is not only talented but also dedicated to making your special day unforgettable. Thank you, Alli, for giving us such beautiful memories to look back on!

Michele was our full wedding planner. Our wedding went perfect without a single hitch and it was all thanks to Michele. We had the caterer for our rehearsal dinner drop out one week before the event and Michele found us a replacement within an hour; and the replacement caterer was a slam dunk. Everyone loved the food. On the day of the wedding and rehearsal dinner Michele and Dan did everything. And I mean everything. She set up tables, positioned flowers and welcome signs and seating charts. She ironed over disagreements with vendors and never once did we have to lift a finger. It is a common saying that the bride and groom never enjoy their own wedding but we thoroughly had a blast at ours thanks to Michele. She is forever our go-to recommendation to all our friends getting married. If she has availability to plan your wedding, book her.

From start to finish, Grace was a calming, warm presence - the whole time we worked with her I felt like we were in excellent hands. She gently directed us without being "posed" or pushy. No notes. Like any engaged person, I felt some anxiety about photos since that's the thing that you get to actually "keep" after your big day. When I tell you, not only do we look like freaking movie stars in all Grace's photos, she PERFECTLY captured the EMOTION of the moment. If you didn't know better, you would think our wedding pictures were a People Magazine Exclusive or something. Just as valuable as the photos themselves was Grace's kind attitude and willingness to work with us on what we needed. It ended up raining on our courthouse day and she not only rolled with it, but got INCREDIBLE photos to boot! Long story short: HIRE GRACE!

We were beyond impressed with Justin as our DJ and MC for our wedding at Rancho De Las Palmas! Justin was highly recommended by our friends and did not disappoint. From the very beginning his professionalism stood out. We met before booking and the session was extremely informative. Justin also has his own site where you can add all your music preferences and add the information for your wedding day. Justin took time to meet with us multiple times leading up to our wedding to make sure we were completely comfortable with the flow of the day. He was on time, had all his own equipment for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, did a MIC check with our officiant, provided wireless microphones for ceremony and reception and included uplighting in our reception space. What was most impressive though was our dance floor being full ALL NIGHT. Justin truly knows how to read a room and keep guests of all ages engaged. We had an absolute blast dancing the night away and are still receiving tons of compliments about the music at our wedding!

Angie, you were absolutely incredible to work with. We had a wonderful time partnering with Angie to create our dream wedding. She was recommended to us by our venue, The Ritz-Carlton Bacara, and we are so happy we chose her! Angie has such a positive personality, always kept everything under control, and never let us feel overwhelmed. It was so smooth at times we wondered what we were forgetting, and Angie always reassured us that we had it all covered. She did it ALL - from getting our vendor rates and availability sorted to showing us all our options and details that made the day come to life. Through our regularly scheduled calls and all the messaging in between, she asked all the right questions to help guide the process, (even for things we hadn't even thought about) and was always available for the one-off questions and to keep us sane, especially during those final two critical months before the big day. Angie also has a wonderful website that organized all our to-do lists, inspo pics, budget info, timelines, vendor details, etc. We didn’t realize how essential something like this was for keeping us on track, and it was little extra details like this that made such a difference. It's because of Angie that we had such wonderful vendors, a significantly less painful planning experience, and a flawlessly executed wedding day!

The preview photos we’ve received so far are absolutely stunning, and I couldn’t be happier with her work. I’m beyond excited to see the full gallery. What impressed me even more was how gracefully they adapted to the day’s hiccups. Despite less-than-ideal direction, they rolled with the punches and got creative, making sure to capture everything beautifully and meaningfully.

  • Not for you if you prefer a more modern aesthetic
  • No all-inclusive dining options

Our wedding at Zaca Mesa took place this spring in March. Everything to booking, venue walk through, and the event day of went smoothly thanks to Tara the event manager at Zaca. She was on top of everything and answered all the questions we had thoroughly and promptly through the whole experience. We felt truly welcomed and like a part of a family there. The venue itself is beautiful with a gorgeous oak tree outside, tall ceilings in the view room, and the greenery outside. It was everything we wanted for our special day. Unfortunately it rained so we weren’t able to utilize the outdoor space but the Zaca team and our event coordinator team did everything and anything to switch to plan B to make sure we still had our ceremony outside and a fun party inside. I truly believe the way the event panned out was even better than the original plan. The professionalism was top notch. Even the times we’ve come to visit the service is impeccable. I am so happy we chose Zaca and we cannot WAIT to come back to visit. It’s one of the reasons we wanted to have our wedding there was to be able to come back and relive those special moments.

Leah Sofia Photo was an amazing wedding photographer who exceeded all of our expectations. From the very beginning, Leah's communication style was attentive, kind, and made us feel completely at ease. Her work is of the highest quality - incredibly professional with an eye for detail that captured every special moment of our wedding day. Leah listened closely to exactly what we wanted and delivered photos that were beyond our wildest dreams. She was so sweet and kind, making us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. The photos came in super quickly, on time, and she knew exactly what she was doing without us having to ask much. It was an added bonus that Leah is also an experienced wedding planner, as her keen eye for detail really shone through in the final product. We could not be happier with our choice of Leah Sofia Photo and highly recommend her to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photographer.

Gracie was AMAZING! The florals were spot on. My bouquet was so beautiful. Everything I wanted and I had a hard time making decisions and knowing exactly what I was envisioning but she somehow was a mind reader and made it all come to life! Thank you so much for making our day a floral dream :)

Hi There! I'm Katherine (or Kay!). I've loved weddings for as long as I could remember and I believe I have one of the best jobs in the whole world. I love being able to capture moments from one of the best days of a couples lives and I get to do it alongside my best friend, my Husband. You could call us nerds; we love Harry Potter, puzzles and video games. Our favorite vacation spot is definitely Las Vegas and we both love good Mexican food. We have two fur babies; Bella and Betsy and yes they are so spoiled. The Husband, Abraham (or Bram) is also an engineer when he's not capturing weddings and a Cal Poly alum.

Kay and Bram were an absolute joy to work with! It also helped they are total dog lovers like my husband and I, and captured the absolute best images of our boy, Maverick. I don’t think there was one moment where we were NOT smiling or laughing around these two, and it put my anxious mind completely at ease. They are affordable, hard-working, and completely matched our photography vision (lighter) for our most important day. I don’t think there are enough words to express my gratitude for the talent these two possess, but for now…thank you, Kay and Bram, for everything you have done for us. We truly adore you and are so lucky to have befriended you! - Chelsea, Neal, and Mav

We are a young and fun event floral studio. We have tremendous respect for nature and strive to be her storyteller. We want to take what she offers in different seasons, carefully undo, find the connection between her stories and yours, then thoughtfully redo to capture the moments in life that are meaningful to you.

Awarded Best of Zola
As a wedding planner, we come across so many talented floral designers and Debbie from Studio Anonimi is definitely one of them. We worked together in March 2020 at Calamigos Ranch, and she truly encompassed the natural, boho, modern feel the bride was going for her. Her arrangements were thoughtfully designed, and leading up to the wedding was great working together. I love that her designs varied slightly table to table, and she did a good job marrying the color palette that the bride had in mine. I’m excited for future weddings with her and would highly recommend her.

We cannot say enough great things about Jaus! Everything about Jausalynn and her work was completely aligned with our wedding style. She's extremely experienced, thorough, and an absolute pleasure to work with. Her and her brother came out to our ranch venue in Santa Ynez and totally transformed it into the wedding of our dreams. We were so happy with how all of the floral arrangements turned out, especially the table of honor, my bouquet, the custom hanging arrangement she made for inside the barn, and the gorgeous table arrangements. She even decorated our cake which turned out adorable. She totally understood the assignment and we wish her nothing but the absolute best moving forward into her own as an independent florist! Feeling so lucky to have found her. Still waiting on the rest of our wedding photos, but attaching what we have from our friends photographer, Cara Robbins. Go with Jaus! You will not be disappointed :')
