Golden Bell is a MUST HAVE for your wedding! WOW we were blown away and so were our guests! Everyone kept commenting on how amazing the musicians were, the best wedding DJ ever! They brought so much energy to the dance floor, people were literally dancing the night away, which is what I really hoped for for our wedding!

We hired DJ Kaleb to DJ our wedding and reception. We couldn't imagine a more seamless process. From the beginning, Kaleb was very communicative, very open to any ideas we had, and really enjoyable and fun to work with. He let us give him a solidified list of songs along with our full wedding vibe (funky/disco). Kaleb understood the assignment. He played all of the songs we really wanted to hear while also finding some other songs that fit our vibes to a T....also made sure he didn't play songs we didn't want to hear. We asked him if he could give our wedding guests certain queue's and guide the wedding on the mic...the day before, we even asked him to say a few things word for word on the microphone. He did just that and absolutely killed it. Dancing DJ productions was a very communicative, organized, and professional company throughout...plus had a very competitive price. Thanks so much for making our big day so special and groovy!

TLDR: Hiring Modern Highway for our wedding was, hands down, the best decision my wife and I made for our big day. First and foremost, they are all talented, professional, and brought a large repertoire to the table. Christina is a fantastic singer, with big range. She is also a great business person, again with exceptional range - handling our light, acoustic service music, our post-wedding cocktail music, and our reception music. All live - which kicked the sheeet out of a DJ. She also MC’d. For weddings, hitting hitches is bad - there were none. The long version: Our wedding was a Sunday. It was in a more remote area from LA - Temecula. My wife had just been injured in a car accident - so we were a little nervous but the event was still a go with many people flying in. I am a musician and my wife and I had made the decision that live music was what we wanted for our big celebration. In hindsight, my only regret is the Sunday wedding because we hired Modern Highway to do our music and they were on fire. And some guests had to think about…Monday. But Christina and the band really held things together. It was a fun event and a big piece of that was the music. Christina brought a tremendous amount of energy. Her voice is electric and, when it came time to dance, the band brought it. Christina was very active moving through the crowd, dancing and singing. It is so hard to do that well - to be the energy. Where we needed “other” services, for first dances, parent dances, introductions, ceremony, etc., Christina & Modern Highway had it all covered. In a few cases we needed streamed music - covered. We needed someone to make the event go from the mic - covered. In a unique circumstance, my own band wanted to play - covered. If I’d been them, I would have said no. And frankly, based on what I saw from Christina, we could not have had a better person handling the mic that night. My wife and I look back on our wedding day as a true blessing - a day we were ecstatic about on the spot. I know a big piece of our internal satisfaction is knowing the entertainment was top notch. I wish Christina could have been our photographer as well!

We booked Conner and his live saxophone player for our wedding in July and they were a HIT! Conner has such an awesome portfolio of experience he is truly changing the reputation of what it means to be a wedding DJ. He does so much more. He mixes, he personalized the playlists to your specific liking, he plays absolute BANGERS, not to mention he has an insane lighting setup and is the best MC I've heard! Our guests literally cannot stop talking about it. I recommend him and his additional saxophone player to literally everyone I meet. Conner was one of the best parts of our wedding reception. If your goal is to create an elevated, luxurious guest experience, BOOK HIM! P.S. Our photographer said our wedding had the most packed dance floor the entire night that she's ever seen... only a killer DJ could do 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.

DJ Cameron and his team gave us the celebration of our dreams. Our family and friends wouldn’t leave dance floor and that’s the exact outcome we asked for and were hoping for when we sought out Cam's services. He asked us for a list of our favorite songs and filled in the gaps when we needed some inspiration. He's a HIGHLY skilled professional and we were through the roof happy that he pulled together all of our preferences of Motown, country, Latin, and hip hop into a nonstop party where each song the dance floor was packed! The sound quality was excellent and he navigated an outdoor courtyard setting and an indoor banquet hall and the sound was full, balanced and clear in each of the venue spaces. The PhotoBooth and uplights were a fantastic touch, the props were also super fun and we captured moments we’ll cherish forever.

From the very first phone call, sticking with us two years later, and finally having our wedding, Dennis and Marlon were AMAZING!!! Dennis knew exactly what to play from the ceremony music to reception to get everyone moving and grooving. My husband and I are from the Bay Area and we had one request - Hyphy music. Boy did Dennis deliver! He was playing hit after hit of all the bangers, and the only reason we stopped dancing was due to timing and we had to cut the music. He listened to our very specific song requests, great communication/professionalism throughout, and just the absolute best! Marlon is a vibe!! He also stepped in to make sure everything was going smoothly. We truly appreciate all of his efforts throughout the night to keep things on schedule. He was also taking pictures throughout the night which we loved!! My family and friends could not stop saying how wonderful he was. Having a wedding with this dynamic duo is a MUST! Thank you both for everything and making sure our day was one we could truly remember. We are filled with nostalgia and awe, and have you both to thank for it!

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.

We had THE BEST time at our wedding!! Everyone was beaming about how much fun DJ Cameron was and how much fun they had on our dance floor! DJ Cameron Martin was the best! He didn’t just play from a playlist but actually live mixed the music and DJ’d the same way you'd hear at a nightclub... unlike so many weddings we’ve been to. We danced for hours and he kept the energy at a peak from start to finish. Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. THANK YOU DJ CAMERON!!

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!!

More than just DJs, we are a passionate group of professional entertainers who want to create memories that will last a lifetime. We are the curators who will transform your reception into the ultimate celebration. Let us show you that the value of a memorable experience is priceless!

We had the most incredible experience working with DJ Parradax and the Wedding Entertainment Collective. Dax takes great detail to ensure the entire process is impressively seamless and meticulously carried out. The communication was extremely clear, perfectly timed, collaborative, and just generally kind. Dax’s passion and professional experience make him the ideal wedding DJ, most importantly his technical skills, wedding knowledge, and fun personality. We were very careful when selecting our DJ because we really wanted to find someone who not only provided a fun reception, but also a logistically sound ceremony and day. From our first presentation with Dax we could tell he was the superior choice. Where as other DJ’s offered a quick chat and minimal info, Dax had an informative presentation that covered his prewedding process for inputting every piece of music into our day, information about ceremony audio quality, microphone options, speaker types, getting audio to the videographer, song timings and rehearsal advice, lighting information, Photo Booth information, and so much more. Every last detail is accounted for and the pricing is fair. Our ceremony and wedding events were perfectly seamless and our reception was incredibly fun- all thanks to Dax. Our advice- do not under any circumstance give your friend a Spotify playlist, or hire a DJ that is not invested in your ceremony just as much as the party. DJ Brian was also an incredible assistant and photobooth attendant. You could just tell this team was genuinely happy to be included in our day and were there to do the best job possible. We hope you choose to trust Dax and Brian with your day!

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.

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.

You’re not just planning a party. You’re designing a core memory. That’s why I don’t just press play, I craft a high-end, high-energy experience that feels like you on your best day ever. From the ceremony to the final dance floor moment, I read the room in real time, blend the genres you love, and elevate every transition so the night flows like a movie scene. You deserve a wedding that feels effortless, sounds amazing, and vibes right all night. That’s exactly what I bring. But here’s the thing, I’m a solo op with limited dates. Once a weekend is gone, it’s gone. If we vibe, don’t wait. Let’s lock it in before someone else does.

Lawrence of DJ Taylor Sounds was incredible. He was great to work with, communicated regularly, and had an incredible knowledge of music. His planning process was super thorough, ensuring that every moment of the wedding was accounted for. Especially at this price, his services cost about half of other DJs that we looked into. I'd definitely recommend Lawrence to anyone looking for a DJ.

Picking the right DJ can be difficult and I am so glad we went with Bunn DJ Company. Steve was extremely professional and super helpful along the way. They had a great planning system where I could go in and add songs, link playlists, talk about music preferences, and make sure every song I needed for each moment was exactly correct. I had no worries or concerns going into the day, and everything was flawless. Steve did such a great job and I would highly recommend!

We are Better Half - violinist Regina Tolley and guitarist Allen de la Rosa. Our violin + guitar duo enjoys playing romantic, classic, popular, and alternative music to set the mood for weddings, elopements, engagements, and any occasion people come together to celebrate!! Performing together since 2013, we both have a passion for music, entertainment, and travel (we've played together in the United States and Europe). Our favorite things are to work alongside our couples to create the perfect personalized soundtrack for their special day, and elevate the experience with a unique and memorable performance on the one-in-a-lifetime day!!

Regina was amazing to work with: punctual, prepared, attentive, and knowledgeable. Her professionalism is obvious with her planning process and no need to be nudged one way or the other on the big day. She's done this before and she knows how to make your day what you are looking for! Her violin blew everyone away, so so beautiful. If you're looking for a violinist or a guitar player Better Half truly is for you. We were so thrilled and couldn't have picked better. Thank you Better Half!
