The Celebration DJ 
Rating: 4.9 (57 reviews)
·Ratings include Zola and Google reviews
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Gonzales, CA
  • Offer

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.

“Brandon is an amazing DJ that really brought out wedding together. He was so easy to work with and did such a good job executing our vision! His live music was a wonderful addition and he even learned a new song for our first dance - it all could not have gone better and I cannot recommend Brandon highly enough.”

We had spent many hours interviewing DJs and trying to find the match, and it was such an easy choice the moment we started talking with Mark. I did some live music during our reception our and Mark was so gracious enough to let me use some of his equipment and helped me making it all come together for a rocking, good time. Mark goes above and beyond his expected duties as a DJ. He pays attention to the crowd's energy, he is attentive throughout, he has intentionality that is felt in each interaction. We are so blessed to have worked with, Mark. If you are still reading this, then you need to just seal the deal with him because obviously he's the right one for the job.”

“Our experience working with Jamie and Ceremony DJs can be best summed up by the fact that multiple people told us after the ceremony they wanted to book him for their wedding and at least one got his business card! I can't imagine a better DJ, truly. When we first met with Jamie, he said he could make people dance to anything and would keep people on the dance floor all night, and he WAS NOT LYING. The whole night, the dance floor was PACKED even though it was rainy/muddy/cold/wet. Jamie took us on a journey that covered all of the bases of the music we love to hear and dance to, seamlessly and magically (?) integrating genres with the best mixes, it was pure wizardry and really captured who we were. We as a couple care a lot about music and wanted music that represented who we were and what we like to listen to, and he did not disappoint! So much prep work went into this, he took patience and time to try to understand our tastes and vibe, and it was so cool to have the wedding played on vinyl- basically, Jamie just "got it" from start to finish and we had the best time! Our wedding also got delayed due to rain and a road closure and he was such a good sport, staying late to keep us all dancing for a whole other hour- so fun! Also, when our ceremony musician was stuck in traffic due to the storm, he was so prepared and had our prelude/processional music downloaded so we could still walk down the aisle to the songs we'd chosen. Overall, such a cool, kind, funny guy who was professional and prepared in every way and honest just takes time to meet and know his clients, and clearly just loves to share his love of music. I would book him for everything if I could. BOOK THIS DJ. You will NOT regret it!”

“Golden Bell Music was worth EVERY penny AND MORE! It's been 6 months since my wedding and I'm STILL getting comments on how much fun all our guests had! Even my mother-in-law who doesn't dance did NOT sit down! I'm Lebanese and my husband is Israeli, so I had asked for help mixing songs to combine our cultures and then move into more western music. I'm still getting sooooo many compliments from our families on how we were able to combine our traditions and our music! And our guests LOST IT when they came out on the dance floor with their instruments and danced with us! I did this in lieu of a zaffet group because i wanted something more unique -- in lebanon a drumline would follow the bride and groom and dance/perform for guests -- and it was definitely the right choice!!! On top of their amazing performance, Marlon was **insanely helpful** both leading up to the day and on the day. I didn't have a wedding planner and was making last minute decisions/timeline changes myself the day of. I couldn't have done it so smoothly without Marlon being so helpful as an MC and being so willing to roll with it! He was absolutely fantastic!! Cut your budget wherever you can to make sure you can hire them. It's SO worth it! Thank you Golden Bell Music for making it the best day of summer (so i've been told. multiple times. by different guests.)!! I don't know for what occasion, but I'm 100% going to find a reason to hire them again.”

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.

“Working with Joey was an unbelievable pleasure. My now husband and I were quite nervous about hiring a DJ (naturally given it was our first time!), but the second I found and spoke to Joey over the phone in an introductory call, I knew we were in good hands. His warmth, charisma and incredible professional experience was apparent, even during those first few minutes. Joey is an unbelievably talented performer (he played live cello at our ceremony) and a well seasoned DJ. What we didn’t know when we first hired him, was just how much help Joey would be in helping us schedule and orchestrate the flow of our full wedding. We had multiple calls and meetings, well before the wedding day, where Joey kept us informed and confident all throughout. He helped us coordinate the music not only to the most important parts of the wedding, but also to all in the in-betweens, making sure that good vibes were always flowing throughout the whole thing. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better person to make it all happen. Joey is also someone who is incredibly organized and pays great attention to detail and timing. He kept things moving (even though that was outside the scope of his work) and made sure everything was on schedule. Even when we ended up going overtime (not to the fault of Joey but family getting too carried away with speeches!), Joey quickly and expertly adjusted his set and made the final dance party something we will never forget. I truly mean this when I say don’t look any further. Don’t hesitate in hiring Joey—if we had to do it all over again, we would pick Cello Joe, every single time. —and to Joey: thank you so much for everything. You truly made our wedding a day we will never forget.”

“From my first conversation with Amore Strings, I knew I had made the right choice in booking for our wedding . They answered every question we had and stayed in touch throughout the planning process, which made us feel confident and supported. On the day of our wedding, AS musicians arrived on time and delivered exactly what we hoped for! They played beautifully!! What really stood out was how kind and genuine the musicians were; they introduced themselves and even showed me the music sheet of the song I requested them to play that want apart of their playlist. I appreciate their willingness to learn a new song for my husband and I’s big day.

“They played at our Manhattan rooftop ceremony and cocktail hour and sounded absolutely amazing!! So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the music was. They were also super easy and professional to work with throughout the whole process. Totally worth the money (and then some!). We’re so glad we found them! Highly recommend!”

“DJ Daniel Mobile Music was the perfect choice for our 2025 Yosemite National Park destination wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was fantastic - they were responsive, flexible, and really took the time to understand our vision for the day and traveled hours from home to provide music for our big day!! On the wedding day, they exceeded our expectations, providing both a skilled DJ and a talented live acoustic guitarist for our ceremony music”

Their communication was clear, concise, and direct, and the quality of their work was professional, energetic, and friendly. Our guests could not stop talking about how incredible the music at our wedding was - it truly was the highlight of the night. Groovin' You kept the energy at an all-time high, and everyone was having an absolute blast on the dance floor. My husband and I, who are also musicians and attended Berklee, got up on stage to perform a song with them which was the most fun! They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding so special, and words aren't enough to thank the entire team for the unforgettable wedding we had, thanks to Groovin' You!”
