Mark Addington Events

5.0

Mountain House, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,600

I’m Mark Addington, owner, founder, emcee, DJ, public speaker, and most importantly…creative at heart. I started my DJ career over 20 years ago for fun and fell in love with it along the way. My goal is to make this choice a simple, informed and fun part of the wedding process. I’m here to communicate and plan pre-wedding so you and your guests can leave it all on the dancefloor the day of the wedding.

As a venue coordinator, I've worked with a lot of different DJ's, but Mark is by far my favorite to work with. We've had the honor to have Mark DJ/MC multiple events here at Callippe over the last few years and every time he knocks it out of the park! He's organized, professional, and will make sure your dance floor is full all night long. We recommend him for all of our weddings and every couple has left nothing but glowing reviews. Book Mark Addington as your DJ, I promise you will not be disappointed!

From classical cello to alternative, funky, beatbox cello grooves to DJing a dance party, Cello Joe can perform for ceremonies, cocktail hours, and dance parties.

Awarded Best of Zola
Joey was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Our ceremony was out in a meadow and the guests absolutely loved his cello playing before the ceremony. It set such a beautiful scene for the location we chose. During our cocktail hour he played more cello but also included some beat boxing and looping, which my guests raved about and thought was so unique. Sadly, as the bride I missed both of these, but when it came to his DJ skills I can attest that he had the party going all night. He listened to what we wanted and mixed up the playlist so that people were on the dance floor until the very end. He was extremely professional to work with and always listened to our wants. If you want an awesome DJ/cellist/beatboxer to make your wedding stand out and keep you guests talking then hire Joey!

With an unwavering passion for the craft, DJ Stallion Entertainment has become a trusted name in the industry, specializing in a wide range of events, including weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, private events, and corporate gatherings.

DJ Stallion (aka Anthony) is one of the best DJs in the business. His vast knowledge of songs and musical genres makes him a one-of-a-kind DJ. I'll never forget a wedding we did together where the groom picked only 90s heavy metal rock as the musical choice. I was mortified as the planner, that it was going to be a terrible celebration with that genre; but DJ Stallion nailed it! He was able to deliver the groom's request and also keep the guests happy and on the dance floor. We've worked together for years and he will always be my first call when looking for a DJ.

I’m passionate about teaching and calling community dances that bring people together to experience joy, appreciate down home country music, and celebrate love! I come with a 3 piece live band and have lots of experience calling and coordinating dances for groups of 12 to over 300 people. I call the monthly Barn Dance at Pie Ranch as well as other community, private, and wedding dances all around the Bay Area.

Nina Berry is a delight to work with! From our very first email exchange she was enthusiastic and professional and I felt confident she would make our dreams of a fun community square dance with all our friends and family come true! And she did indeed. It's not easy to shepherd a group of newbie dancers, but she made everyone feel comfortable and created a fun, relaxed atmosphere. There were huge smiles all around and everyone commented afterwards what a great time they had. Nina's band Gettin' Good was filled with equally as lovely and talented women, and it was a joy to be able to dance to their lively music. Nina and her band made it a truly memorable and joyful event and we whole heartedly recommend them!

He even played Tagalog pop songs and managed sound for a Filipino folk dance group. We also loved the little details like the template for our photo booth photos, the lights for the dance floor, and our initials projected on the wall.

I hired Jackie to sing at my wedding reception Dec 3rd 2022! When I heard some samples of her voice on YouTube, I knew she has was the one I wanted singing at my wedding!! She has a beautiful beautiful soulful voice that you can get lost in for days. Jackie was super flexible, shared her ideas and suggestions when I I didn't know what direction to go with songs ( wedding planning was stressful) but she made it easy to plan and make suggestions based on my song choices. I had her sing and play the piano for 3 different songs Father daughter dance, mother son dance, and cake cutting! Looking back, being someone who’s goal was to have more entertainment then speeches, id had her perform the whole time! Our guest raved about her voice, her performance, and how beautiful her renditions sounds. She was SO SO EASY TO WORK WITH.. With a wedding being crazy expensive.. She was accommodating to our budget! There’s no doubt I’d hire her again! She can sing anything! Love love love her

During the pre-wedding planning stage, Ana & Jimmy took the time to get to know us on a personal level and answered all of our questions quickly through emails and zooms. What I loved about the planning stage with them was their ability to incorporate our music suggestions, while also providing feedback on music through their expertise. On the wedding day, they absolutely crushed it!! During our wedding, it was a perfect mix of live and dj entertainment during our reception. They met all of our expectations music-wise and did a phenomenal job of playing music to all generations during the night.

He had a running list of many classic and pop songs that he offered to perform live, and also offered to learn new songs just for us – amazing! Throughout the shutdown, he continued to stay in contact with us over the phone, and was able to make adjustments to the plans as needed. Shivan was very generous with his time, and was always eager to bring our vision to life. We had a detailed itinerary and he executed the plan perfectly! Aside from his ability to entertain with great live music and DJ events, he is able to adapt on the fly. Due to unforeseen weather conditions, we had to move locations from outdoors to indoors and he had the patience, equipment, and skills to make all adjustments with little to no guidance. Shivan is a dependable, entertaining, and truly talented musician who will exceed all of your expectations when you hire this professional for your special event!

We worked with DJ JaronB for our October 2023 wedding ceremony and reception. He was great! There was a thorough planning document provided which helped us break down the music we wanted to hear into sections of the day. We had a beach ceremony and the equipment that was set up for the ceremony was loud enough for us hear the music and what people were saying on the mic even tho the ocean was really loud. The reception was fun! Vibes were great for cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing. We recommend working w DJ JaronB, thanks for adding so much fun to our event!

I provide service in the general Bay area but will travel to further locations. I have provided music services to over 75 weddings in Los Angeles, Washington DC, Virginia, Arizona, and the Bay area.

DJ Peter is AWESOME. So personable and friendly. He worked with us around our preferred budget and made sure to ask all of the right questions. He was quick to answer any texts and emails and sent over a detailed event questionnaire and linked us up with an app that had our playlists and other important songs. My coordinator/event venue owner was also very impressed at how he reached out to her ahead of time to plan his set up. She says she normally has to chase down vendors. The choice is simple. Hire DJ Peter! We had people on the dance floor that I swore would not be out there. Thank you!!

Cuarteto Guataca

5.0

New York, NY
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $2,000
  • Serves Merced, CA for additional fees

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.

I have used Cuarteto Guataca both personally (birthdays, family events) and professionally as a wedding/ event florist and event planner for YEARS. Every time they manage to get everyone on their feet. They are super professional always and extremely easy to work with. Hands down, Josh and his band will always be my first choice for latin entertainment (any entertainment for that matter)!!
