Richard was helpful and respectful throughout our entire wedding planning process. He worked flawlessly with me, my partner, and our wedding planner to pull off an incredibly fun reception. Richard did an initial call with my partner to discuss the general vibe we were looking for, and we knew immediately he would be a great fit for our wedding. Richard gave us a helpful questionnaire to fill out key songs and general musical interests (and do not play songs). Richard was also happy to jump on calls with us to talk through our questions and hopes for our big day. I especially appreciated that Richard was able to play some German songs for some guests who had flown in from Germany, as that got even some of our older relatives on the dance floor. People were partying all night thanks to Richard! Richard catered to our wide age range of guests, and even gave us a couple of bonus closing songs that were the perfect conclusion to the night. We could not have asked for a better DJ.

The Cosmo Alleycats is a San Francisco-based Swing & Vintage Dance Band that has been a popular choice with wedding couples, event planners, dancers and audiences for the last decade. The band, comprised of 6 talented musicians, draws from several decades of exhilarating American dance music to deliver a fun and engaging performance with a dynamic, soulful delivery.

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired the Cosmo Alleycats for our wedding and it was by far one of the best choices we made. Working with Emily and the Cosmo Alleycats is a dream. First up, they are obviously very musically talented - their style is fun for everyone of all ages and they are open to working with you for your preferences. They went above and beyond by making a special arrangement of our first dance song. We wanted to practice dancing to their rendition before the big day, so Emily shared a recording of it with us which was extremely helpful. Emily is a true professional, helping us organize all of the details and logistics in addition to emceeing for the evening and bringing her gorgeous singing voice, and each member of the band brings their own talents and flair. I cannot recommend them enough. Live music at a wedding is a top-notch experience for you and your guests and you won’t regret hiring the Cosmo Alleycats for your special day.

I’ve been playing weddings for over twelve years and I love my work! My services cover any or all aspects of wedding & receptions. I have found my life’s artistic calling in becoming flexible to every type of music my clients could desire. I learn to enjoy whatever my clients love and this resonance makes my job sustainable and ever-enjoyable. But, I do tend to request the ability to make choices for the dance-floor that rely on my years of dance-enhancing experience. I meet with my clients to determine what music they would love to hear and what music they do NOT want to hear.

Awarded Best of Zola
We’d experienced some strange DJ moments at other weddings - airhorns, over the top transitions, self advertising - so we were feeling picky as we embarked on the first DJ search of our own. Celebration DJ stood out to us, and the ability to hire a DJ who can also sing and play guitar was an enticing combo. Brandon did a fabulous job bringing his professional experience to the day - we really wanted a packed dance floor and he delivered. The photobooth and its quirky props were a huge hit with our guests, and the GIFs that were available afterwards are so fun and unique! We also loved that we could collaborate on playlists via Spotify - made it easy and now we can continue to listen to our wedding music for years to come. Thank you Brandon and the Celebration DJ team!

James from Precise Blend did amazing at keeping the vibes high and the dancing going all night. My husband and I had the pleasure of experiencing James' DJ skills during our wedding in October of 2014. TO THIS DAY people still talk about how much fun they had at our wedding. There were never any dull moments, awkwardness or lulls. Everything went smoothly and better than I could have ever imagined. I love that he shared in our joy.

Sharing my passion for dance and music has been the most amazing experience of my life. Since 2010 I've been fine tuning my craft at clubs, weddings and corporate events so that dancefloors are packed. Every event I DJ is an honor and privilege I don't take lightly and my focus is to always meet and exceed the vision and vibe you have for your event!

Awarded Best of Zola
We were fortunate enough to have DJ John as one of our DJ options through our venue. From the moment we started talking about our vision and vibe for the big day, we knew DJ John was our guy. This is not an exaggeration when I say our friends and family are using DJ John as the gold standard for every other wedding they’ve attended. We had must-plays from our parents that DJ John was able to seamlessly integrate into our own must-plays. We did not give him an easy task asking him to go from Grateful Dead, to bad bunny, to LCD sound system, but DJ John nailed it. From beginning to end, DJ John curated the perfect vibes that kept the party going all night. When you’ve spent your time thinking about all the big items, DJ John’s skill, knowledge, and expertise will save you from having to think about what songs should play in between speeches or while everyone eats. The dance floor was literally packed the entire reception and it was all thanks to DJ John. A lot of things can go wrong on the wedding day and you can rest easy knowing you won’t go wrong with DJ John. I truly cannot say enough great things about him and how great he was for our wedding.

Your wedding deserves more than beautiful music—it deserves a soundtrack that captures the emotion of every unforgettable moment. As a professional cellist, guitarist, and singer, I specialize in creating elegant, deeply personal musical experiences that elevate your celebration from the first guest’s arrival to your final dance. With years of professional performance experience spanning classical, contemporary, folk, jazz, pop, and original music, I bring the artistry, versatility, and attention to detail expected at world-class events.

Christian Dupree Music made our wedding reception unforgettable in ways we never expected. From our first conversation, Christian was responsive and organized, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. He beatboxed while I rapped in a battle against my wife, then switched gears to play guitar for her diss song back at me. Christian has this incredible gift where he can hear a song and play it back immediately with multiple instruments because he just knows the notes, and he can freestyle rap on top of it all. He turned the dance floor into something interactive and hilarious that our guests still talk about. We can't recommend Christian Dupree Music enough for couples who want a musician that goes way beyond the typical playlist.

Ashley was amazing! Leading up to the wedding, she was super helpful in guiding us through the steps to set up playlists and coordinate the intros/outros of the bridal party. Our wedding was spread out over a large property, and she had zero issue running speakers to each area, providing a festive, cozy atmosphere! We had a couple live performances and she was very accommodating in getting mic stands and cables all ready to go. Then the DANCING began! Lights, speakers, the whole deal - Ashley killed it! We leaned into more 70’s and 80’s music, and Ashley completely understood the assignment. Needless to say, the music mix was brilliant. Since then, we have had at least a dozen of our friends and family tell us that this was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding. I have no doubt that Ashley is 99.99% responsible for that. Hiring Ashley and Fog City Entertainment made a lot of sense 6 months ago, but now, having seen what she can do for a wedding’s atmosphere and dance floor, it’s a no-brainer. Thank you, Ashley!!

Golden Bells was PHENOMENAL! Marlon and the entire band absolutely crushed it at our wedding. Not only is every musician insanely talented, but Marlon curated the night perfectly -- easing in with oldies to get our parents and older guests moving, then seamlessly shifting into the EDM, pop, and Bay Area rap we love. It felt like the soundtrack of us, and everyone could feel that. One of the highlights of the night was when the band came onto the dance floor with drums, trumpet, guitar, and trombone -- and even let us drum in a bit. The energy was unbelievable. And Hava Nagila with a full live band? Unreal. The band/DJ fusion setup made the entire reception feel elevated, unique, and unforgettable. They're truly a one-of-one. We got so many compliments throughout the night and later about the music, the vibe, and the experience the band created. Everything ran smoothly -- from emceeing to sound to transitions -- and you can tell the quality of their equipment and professionalism is top-notch. We can't thank Marlon and the Golden Bells team enough for making our wedding feel like a celebration we'll never forget. Highly, highly recommend them!

Trecee was our DJ for our outdoor wedding reception, and he was amazing! My husband and I were originally going to just play music from our phone, but I’m glad that we found and hired Trecee instead! With no coordinator and last minute changes before and on the day of our wedding, Trecee remained professional, flexible, and fun as our DJ and MC! He followed our song cue list wonderfully, and helped us remix our first dance songs just how we planned. He made announcements we had set on the schedule as well as additional ones requested. He also made funny comments, which totally added to the vibes. His music choices were just what we were looking for, and even with a request by my family to switch to slower songs, he did it seamlessly; Fun, hyped songs for the younger crowd and romantic songs for the elders. He arrived about 45 minutes before his contract hours started to set up and even gave us (bridal party) warnings and updates on getting behind or on track of schedule! (Which is very helpful as, again, we didn’t have a coordinator.) Overall, he is a great DJ & MC, and my now husband and I would highly recommend his services! I will post more pictures once available.

Most importantly, they really listened to what we wanted and tailored the music to match the tone we envisioned. Their professionalism and adaptability helped everything go smoothly. We’re really glad we had them as part of our celebration and would definitely recommend them to other couples.

Jonny did such a great job at our wedding! He was very flexible given that we had to move inside due to rain. He did everything he could to keep our schedule on track. Overall he was very friendly and full of energy. The only thing that was missing was that he may have forgotten we made a last minute change the week of and requested to have an open mic during speeches. However, this was easy to overlook since he did such an amazing job with everything else!

My husband and I got married this past August and I’ve been meaning to write this review for a while but we had a big move and time got away from us. As a wedding vendor myself I know how important it is to have a DJ that can balance fun and professionalism, but Joey Chang did just that. He was punctual, detail oriented, and our guest couldn’t stop talking about how good he was, both as a musician and as a DJ. I really appreciated the time and effort he took to insure that no details were missed. We booked a lighting package as well and our ceremony space looked even better than I could have imagined. Joey made sure the ceremony audio was perfect. Everyone could hear the whole ceremony which was really important to us. And when he played cello for our processional and recessional, the sound really filled the space and sounded beautiful. During our cocktail hour he played cello and did some beatboxing, we were so impressed and our guests loved it as well, they were talking about how good he was and how they could hardly believe it was live music. After dinner the dance floor was full the whole night. Even months later we still have people telling us how much fun they had dancing, how great our playlist was, and how much they liked our DJ. If you want your wedding to be classy, romantic, a total rager, and go off without a hitch, I would highly recommend hiring Cello Joe!

We cannot say enough amazing things about DJ Chris Georgios! From start to finish, he absolutely crushed it at our wedding. He read the room perfectly, kept the energy high, and created the exact vibe we were hoping for. Every transition was smooth, every song hit just right, and he truly made the night feel like us. Our guests are still raving AND will continue to, about how fun the dance floor was! Chris was also incredibly professional, extremely personable and easy to work with leading up to the big day. We honestly felt like we had known him for years. He would stop and call me right away if I needed something. He listened to our preferences, offered helpful suggestions, and made sure the timeline flowed seamlessly. We’re so grateful for the unforgettable experience he created. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to throw a party and keep the magic alive all night long, DJ Chris is your guy! We loved YOU!!! P.S. the impromptu "One last breath by Creed" karoke from Walker was a HIT and so fun. - The Andersons
