This was an annual dinner meeting for Assistance League Santa Clarita, a nonprofit. Having Crystal Note DJ, Edgardo, there took this event over the top. We had women in their 80's and one aged 90, on the dance floor and having a good time. This was, without a doubt, the best December dinner meeting thanks to Edgardo.

Funk Almighty was hands down the highlight of our wedding! They brought the perfect vibe to our day. Everyone in the band is super talented and so kind - it was a pleasure working with them. Daryl was awesome and had great communication with us the entire process. All of the logistics were handled seamlessly - from the ceremony, to cocktail hour, to reception, to after hours DJ. We appreciated that they traveled to Wisconsin for our wedding! It was truly a treat for us and our guests. We received so many compliments on how awesome our music was! We were lucky to see Funk Almighty live at Joe's on Weed before our wedding but had them booked for our wedding well before that. We can't wait to see them live again! Thank you Funk Almighty!!!

Awarded Best of Zola
I agree with the hundreds of 5-star reviews of Second Song, but I wanted to specifically give a shout out to DJ Tyler O! While Second Song made the process leading up to the wedding easy and seamless (and the cold sparklers were a hit), DJ Tyler did an amazing job at my wedding and absolutely CRUSHED the dance floor. My husband and I have differing music tastes, but DJ Tyler was able to find common ground and played banger after banger that kept all of our guests on the dance floor till the very end. As someone who goes to music festivals often, I was impressed by his mixing skills and appreciated that there was never an abrupt transition between songs. He also did an amazing job MC’ing and executed all of our requests for playing specific songs at certain times and starting songs in the middle. I don’t think you can go wrong with any DJ’s with Second Song, but I do highly recommend picking DJ Tyler O!

I am so happy to write a review for Seth and his team! From the very beginning, Seth has been a pleasure to work with. The first meeting I was very impressed by how he had researched the wedding venue and its layout so that he could ask us what our thoughts were on setup/DJ location placement etc. Our second meeting was then focused on how to set up the wedding playlist using the Vibo app. The app is fantastic, and an excellent way to keep track of the songs you wish to have played at certain time points (bridal processional, grand entrance, pre-ceremony, etc.). In the app you can request starting timepoints and leave extra notes for Seth to look over weeks before the wedding. Aside from these aspects, Seth went above and beyond to help us with other non-music related aspects of the wedding such as our wedding slideshow (that he helped give us step by step instructions so that the quality of the slideshow would be good for when it was projected on the wall of venue). He also created a mashup for my husband to dance with his mom ("Dance with me" mixed with "Just Dance"; it was amazing!). Even during the week of the wedding, when I had a mini-freak out, he was so kind and understanding. In the end, I 100% recommend Seth (and Matt too! He was at the Photo Booth, and he was so kind and was ready to help folks if any technical help was needed)! Seth's team is professional, kind, and has great attention to detail; if you can, book DJ Seth and his team for your wedding!

The Moon Units: Weddings & Events 
Rating: 5.0 (35 reviews)
Los Angeles, CA
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $4,400

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 1,000+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Awarded Best of Zola
You will not find a better wedding band than The Moon Units! (and it's way better than a DJ, trust). We chose them because we heard them at our friends’ wedding, and it was the best wedding band we had ever heard. They played songs that weren’t the typical songs you always hear at weddings (and get bored/sick of), and they sounded EXACTLY like the original version of the song - incredible musicians and vocals. My now husband is a former professional musician, so the music at our wedding was extremely important to us, and we knew they were the only choice. From their communication throughout our planning, to their extensive song list, to the option for them to learn specials songs just for us (which they crushed), The Moon Units were nothing short of spectacular. They are also all very kind people, which is the cherry on top and makes such a difference on a wedding day!! They will also be playing at another friends’ upcoming wedding soon too (that’s how impressed everyone is with them). We had so many people come up to us after our wedding to tell us the music was the best out of any wedding they have been to, and everyone had so much fun dancing! 100/10

Awarded Best of Zola
We had an amazing experience with DJ Emmett and would absolutely recommend him! What I really loved about him was his style and taste. It meant we didn’t need to micromanage the music or over-plan every detail. We gave him a few must-plays and a general sense of the cocktail hour vibe, and he took it from there. He knows how to read a room! The uplighting he provided as part of the package also completely transformed the space. He was also an excellent MC. One of our favorite moments was the little couple trivia game he did to dismiss tables for the buffet. It was such a fun touch and guests really loved it.

Working with Sam, Marco, and Julian was so seamless and easy. We really wanted to avoid a DJ that played tired 'wedding' music and actually created a fun night of dancing with our millennial Brooklyn crowd. We vibed with Sam immediately on intake meeting, who even 'scouted' our venue to confirm the existing audio setup worked (helping us save some on rentals). Coordinating with Marco and working with DJ Julian on the day-of was a breeze and delivered exactly the energy we had hoped for. Couldn't recommend enough!

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. 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 coordinator as they are different). Otherwise, I will also charge for coordination services as that puts the burden of day of logistics on the DJ.

DJ Trey is THE BEST DJ!!! I wish we had even more time on the dance floor to keep letting him mix because he’s a genuinely fantastic DJ! Not just a DJ who sets up an iPhone or Spotify and lets it ride mindlessly, but a DJ who reads the crowd, takes input from the bride and groom, and uses his skill and best judgement to provide music that gets everyone on the dance floor. Literally everyone at our wedding was on their feet for dancing and loved all the music DJ Trey played! He also was fantastic in making sure all of the music played on their appropriate cues and was well-prepared. He was great to work with for our wedding and we can’t wait to throw another party just so we have an excuse to use DJ Trey again!

Love Tempo by DJ Ceviche

Tiger (aka Dj Ceviche) started music appreciation lessons at the age of 3 and has continued with professional music production, performance, composition, blogging, curation, and djing for the last 3 decades. His friendly, down-to-earth but professional approach to djing has won over the hearts and ears of people across the globe. He houses a large vinyl collection and 3 cats in his studio in Echo Park, Los Angeles.

Awarded Best of Zola
We found Tiger on Zola really early on in our wedding planning process and knew we had to reach out. We really wanted a DJ that felt different, less cheesy, that could help us create a vibe of a house party with all our friends versus a wedding ballroom. Luckily for us, he had plenty of experience with our venue and we quickly realized Tiger would be one of our vendors we didn’t have to worry about. He played vinyl during our cocktail hour, helped create the most seamless ceremony, added personal touches as our MC, and gave us the greatest dance floor we could have asked for. Super easy to work with, and most importantly we knew we could trust him with our night. If you’re thinking about booking Tiger, just do it, don’t look anywhere else. I said “this is the best night of my life” to anyone who would listen about 15 times during our reception

DJ Keelez was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding in San Diego. We found her on Reddit and are so happy we did!

My husband worked with her on the audio setup for our musician, song choices, microphones, and all of the logistics leading up to the day. During the ceremony, there was not one audio blip or mess-up — everything sounded perfect. The reception was SO much fun. There was not an empty moment on the dance floor, and the music made it feel like we were at a club in the best way. Everything was professional, fun, and seamless. She was also incredibly flexible. My husband wanted to surprise everyone with a freestyle and asked her to put on a beat, and she did it without hesitation. I also added a dance with my mom last minute, and she didn’t blink an eye.

The Lucky Devils Band absolutely made our wedding reception! From our initial phone call with Meredith, we knew we were in excellent hands. She took the time to thoroughly understand our vision and musical tastes, making thoughtful suggestions along the way. Communication was prompt, fun, and Meredith was so approachable throughout the planning process. On the big day, the band blew us away with their incredible talent and ability to perfectly execute our song requests, from jazz to oldies to classic rock. As musicians ourselves, we were so impressed by their skill level and experience and professionalism. During cocktail hour, two musicians played jazz, then they switched to rock mode for the reception. They truly made it feel like our own personal concert and kept people on the dance floor for literally 3 hours! The energy was palpable from their very first note, and their song selections kept guests of all ages dancing all night long. They ended the evening with “Purple Rain” by Prince and it made my life. We can't recommend the Lucky Devils Band highly enough - they were total professionals and our biggest splurge, but SO worth it I’d do it a million times over!!

There was also an option to request non-repertoire songs for a small fee. Of particular note, we were deciding between two different songs for our processional (including one off-repertoire), and Paulina sent us samples (for free!) so we could hear the arrangements and directly compare them before making our final decision.

My husband and I loved having The Secret Jazz Band at our wedding. It was a very last minute wish my husband and I had and when we reached out to Katie, she was so responsive and professional. She listened to our wishes and made it happen. Although there were some hiccups in terms of where the band was placed on the day of the wedding, they remained professional and very kind. It was great being able to choose some of our jazz favorites! My husband and I really enjoyed our dinner listening to some of our favorite songs. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day!

  • DJ
  • Starts at $2,300

(Jane + Jon) Our Story Together we bring you 20+ years of experience in having and creating fun, and YU & US was created as an embodiment of our partnership today. Co-Founder and DJ, Jon has a passion for finding and playing the best tunes, which is the winning combination any client would want for their special occasion. We have planned and DJed many clients’ weddings and events, but it wasn’t after we planned our own wedding in November 2018 that we understood the true stressful reality of planning. Because of this and because we own this business together, we empathize with the strain wedding planning sometimes puts on engaged couples.

Awarded Best of Zola
At the same time that we were getting married, my company was going through massive layoffs and my partner and I were moving to another country. Our wedding was going to be the last thing in Los Angeles before we left. Jane helped keep us on track and handled everything so no one could tell how stressful everything was. We had so many compliments on the wedding - from the DJ being absolutely smashing to the decor, clear organisation, food, everything. We really could not have done it without Jane and Jon. Highly recommend! Jane saved us more than once through this process

Sunny Jazz Band | Sunny Entertainment

Los Angeles, CA
  • Band or Ensemble

Hi, I'm Noam — founder of Sunny Entertainment and bandleader of Sunny Jazz Band. I met my husband in music school over a decade ago, and we built this business out of a shared love for live music and a dream of making couples' wedding days unforgettable. Sunny Jazz Band is a Los Angeles–based live music ensemble performing at weddings across Southern California, the Bay Area, Las Vegas, and beyond. We've had the honor of sharing stages with artists like Pitbull and John Legend, but the events closest to our hearts will always be the weddings — the first dances, the dance floors that don't empty until the very last song. We live for it.

5 STARS!!! We booked Sunny Jazz Band for our corporate event in Los Angeles and honestly could not have asked for a better experience. The music was classy, upbeat, and never overpowering. So many guests came up asking who the band was. Professional from start to finish and incredibly talented musicians.

  • Band or Ensemble

Formed in 2006, the Organic String Quartet (OSQ for short) is a professional ensemble that has been providing live music for events in Southern California for over 18 years, and during that time has amassed a vast and diverse catalog of songs. OSQ is known for the wide variety of music they perform, and can easily alternate between multiple genres of music: Classical, Rock, Pop, Hip-Hop, R&B, Jazz, Soundtrack, and more. Members of the quartet have worked with many high-profile artists such as Adele, Katy Perry, Deadmau5, Alan Parsons, Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, Frank Ocean, Barbara Streisand, Natalie Cole, Vitamin String Quartet and others.

The Organic String Quartet was an exceptional choice for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. From our first interaction, they were responsive, warm, patient, and extremely organized in planning the musical details for our special day. Their performance was truly exceptional - elegant, professional, and heartfelt. They even learned to play "Cornfield Chase" by Hans Zimmer, one of our favorite songs, and took quick action to discreetly address an unexpected phone alarm during the ceremony. We could not have been more impressed by the quality and value of their work, and they played a meaningful role in making our wedding day perfect. We highly recommend the Organic String Quartet to any couple looking for a flawless musical experience.
