Not only is Jesse so talented, he is also so kind and caring. Taking pictures can be so uncomfortable and he really put our nerves at ease and directed us in a way that resulted in epic photos. I would 100% recommend him. We also added on video services and I’m so glad we did. I cried within thirty seconds of watching the highlight video he made. It was so well done and something I will cherish forever. He also guided us on the timeline for our wedding so we would have the best lighting and that was really important as we had the time of sunset wrong and we had booked the ceremony at the wrong time. Because of Jesse’s expertise we were able to adjust everything in time before we sent out the invitations.

DJ Solstice 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,900

With many years of experience, our team of experts are trusted names in the wedding DJ business. Our DJs are great at reading the crowd & keeping the energy up on the dance floor with clean mixing and smooth transitions, while also knowing when to slow it down for those special moments or throw it back to some classics. Guests are blown away by the level of professionalism (and a good bit of fun) our team provides, with dedicated experts in lighting/sound design, photobooth, and MCing. With music catering to all generations, we excel in keeping the flow of the event and eliminating dead time, while PACKING that dance floor!

All the roses to this guy right here! My wife Rachael and I had our wedding at Aliso Viejo Wedgewood and DJ Solstice far exceeded my expectations and those of our guests! I spent excruciating days and hours combing the internet, listening to plenty of vlogs and samples from DJ after DJ, for anyone that can match the vibes my wife and I were seeking for our wedding and Matt absolutely delivered! He continued to work diligently with me as we worked through our vision for the wedding day and he was noting short of a consummate professional through the whole processes despite the obstacles, definitely worth every bit of time and budget we had set for him! Every single guest we had come up to us loved him from his transitions, to his control of the dance floor and vibes, and even his ability to MC was far above what we have experienced in other weddings! Not to mention all the lights, sounds, and CO2 cannons he brought out! Certainly at the grade and level he promised when we first met and more! We asked for an EDM Set and he gave us one way above anything we ever expected, and we've seen plenty! For a day we don't ever plan to replicate again in our lives, I'm glad my wife Rachael and I were able to share this day with Matt and his team and they have our highest recommendation we could give to anyone for ANY of your music genre needs! Matt, looking forward to seeing your future clips, gig logs, and your continued growth in the forseable future!

Raymond (Ray) was great! Very nice, on time and he definitely felt the vibe of the room and played music based on our guests. A lot of our guests were older (millennial and baby boomers). He played songs on our list and accepted request so that everyone could dance to music they like! Which was great! We received nothing but great compliments other than older people took Tylenol the next day as their knees were hurting from dancing so much! Lol

Tyler Varnell - Saxophone + Piano + DJ/Emcee - All-In-One

  • Solo performer
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Tyler Varnell is one of the most highly demanded Saxophone-DJ's in California with unparalleled awards, clients, and epic 'best night of your life' dance parties. Named a top-27 wedding professional in the US by ThKnot Magazine Summer 2024 Issue, three of Tyler's weddings have been featured in People Magazine with additional celebrity weddings featured in Brides Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, NBC, and Sports Illustrated. Tyler was voted #1 DJ in OC by California Wedding Day Magazine, with recent performances including Ferrari, Disneyland, Mercedes Benz, Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons Beverly Hills, and luxury resorts throughout Mexico and Hawaii

Awarded Best of Zola
When I started planning my 40th birthday party, I couldn't decide between a band or a DJ. Each one I was looking at was just not the vibe and I was starting to get discouraged. Then, a friend of mine posted a story at a party where Tyler was DJing/playing the sax, and right away I knew he was the missing piece. I've attended parties with a sax player before, but NEVER like this and never one who does BOTH the DJing AND the sax! From the moment I reached out, Tyler was incredible. He followed up quickly and was great with all communications - we hopped on a call and to go over my theme and ideas, and he was so receptive and amazing with adding in things to help take my existing ideas to the next level. He even helped with the floor plan suggestions to help ensure my goal of "everyone being on the dance floor with me all night" would be more achievable - and omg am I glad I listened. Additionally, he suggested extending the party 1 hour, and thankfully we did because my initial timing guess was way off. Bottom line - trust him, HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. At the same time, he was never pushy and I never felt like I HAD to go with his ideas, but again, so glad I did. On the night of the party, from start to finish Tyler and his team were flawless. He made sure to play all of my "must play" songs, and read the vibes of the room perfectly - I've truly never seen some of my guests dance this much EVER. The amount of people who came up to me that night and have texted and called me since to tell me how epic Tyler and his team were is not surprising in the least. Multiple guests described it as the "best party they've ever been to" and said they "haven't danced that much since college" (and let's just say, it's been at least 15-20 years since then for all of us). One of my friends even booked him on the spot for her upcoming birthday! I could truly go on and on, but I will just end with this - DON'T THINK TWICE, DON'T BOTHER LOOKING ELSEWHERE, BOOK TYLER. You will NOT regret it! Thanks Tyler and team for the most epic night of my life!!! (also, I wish I could upload videos here because photos don't do any justice!!!)

Christina was one of the first vendors I booked through Zola and I am so lucky and happy to have found her! I wanted to have both live music and a DJ set at the reception, and many people told me I couldn’t for varrying reasons. But when I found L Rock Entertainment’s page, I knew it was the perfect fit for my dream wedding. Christina has amazing DJ skills and plays guitar and sings beautifully! We customized the package to have her duo Modern Highway play for cocktail hour then the DJ set. She was very communicative throughout the whole process, helping me with my timeline as I planned my own wedding. The day of, the band played beautiful guitar live during our first look, something we didn’t plan but Christina went with the flow like a true professional. The live music was perfect for cocktail hour and then DJ set was BANGING! Everyone on the dance floor came up to me at some point complimenting her perfect beat matching and transitions. She not only played our must-have songs, but also incorporated requests seamlessly. Even the neighbors complimented the tunes and don’t complain about the noise! Christina is kind, patient, professional, warm, talented, caring, and creative - everything you could possibly want from your music team. If we ever need a DJ for a future event, she’s at the top of our list. Book her now!

  • Starts at $1,995
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

My name is Dominiq and I have been in the wedding industry since 2006. I absolutely LOVE what I do. My middle name is Jakob so my name is literally DJ, I was born for this. I have 6 sisters so not only do I love what I do, but I believe in it as a hopeless romantic at heart. I enjoy bringing together families and friends to forget about their problems for a day and just enjoy life and celebrate.

Wedding was 1/9/2020 . Our officiant didn't add our ring exchange to our ceremony. (We had a buddist ceremony); The chaos of a strict photography schedule kept my husband and I busy. But I was so upset that moment was not going to be in photos. Dom somehow knew I needed that moment to complete. He snuck it in before our cake cutting and I was overjoyed to have him officiate that for us. He was spot on with the playlist and songs matching to our chosen genre. He did more than we asked for even when our venue coordinator dropped the ball on us with not posting seating charts. He is the best and wouldn't pick anyone else to trust to DJ/MC a special event .

Our goal for your wedding day is simple: to capture all the genuine, heartfelt moments between you and your loved ones. At the same time, I’ll gently guide you to create stunning scenes where the light, scenery, and you shine perfectly.

When you look back at your gallery, you’ll relive all the amazing moments you might have missed. I’m all about creating timeless photos that will grace your parents’ mantel for the next 40 years. I want to help you preserve those memories and ensure they’re never forgotten.

From our first conversation with Adam Levinstein Photography, we knew we had found the right fit (we were also referred to Adam by a friend)! He listened closely to what we wanted and responded to every question quickly and thoughtfully, which made planning feel easy and stress-free. During our engagement shoot and on the day of our wedding, Adam and his team went above and beyond—he helped my husband feel comfortable in front of the camera despite being shy about photoshoots, and he helped recommend the perfect location for our bridal party photos when we weren't sure where to go. Their work is truly professional yet fun and adventurous, capturing moments that feel authentic and special. The team was super accommodating in helping us capture everything about our wedding that we wanted, from the shot list to also capturing memories in the moment. The cherry on the top was having polaroid prints of photos that were taken THAT day were printed and placed in our sweethearts' table floral arrangements as a surprise and delight! We were blown away with the sneak peeks that arrived on Monday after our Friday evening wedding—the photos were absolutely beautiful and we can't wait to see the rest. Adam and his team made our wedding day better in so many ways, and we highly recommend them to any couple looking for a photographer who genuinely cares.

"I am still in awe. 100/10 absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for above & beyond service. BOOK HIM you will not regret it." -Reese Free. As you compare performers, you likely wonder what makes one a better fit than another. Of course, musical skill is important. This is something I've developed in my 15 years of playing. But there's more than that—it's the ability to fit seamlessly with a DJ, to connect with vendors behind the scenes to minimize weight on your shoulders, to deliver your important songs in a way that accentuates the emotions of the moment. With Seps, you can expect a performance of a lifetime, with the easiest prep imaginable.

Tyler was absolutely incredible - one of the true highlights of our wedding! He was so easy to work with from start to finish and put so much thought into every song, creating beautiful instrumental versions of the pieces we requested. We had him play for the pre-ceremony, ceremony, cocktail hour, and grand entrances, and he absolutely nailed every moment. His communication was excellent - always quick to reply and genuinely went above and beyond for us throughout the entire process. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about him all day!

Claudia made our wedding on April 5th, 2025 at Ole Hanson Beach Club in San Clemente absolutely perfect! From start to finish, she made the whole planning process so smooth and stress-free. She totally got our vision and made sure every detail was handled perfectly on the day of the wedding. She made our welcome mirror sign, let us borrow bud vases that we used on our sweet heart and welcome table, and truly brought our vision to life. She gave me great vendor recommendations that I ended up using and had a great experience with. On the day of, everything ran like clockwork — all thanks to Claudia. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing and got to just enjoy the moment. She’s super organized, calm, and genuinely cares about making your day special. We’re so grateful for everything she did and couldn’t recommend her more! (Amazing photos of the tables by Geoff & Lyndsi Photography)

DJ Czar went above and beyond to ensure our wedding ran smoothly. From planning to the day-of, Czar thought of everything so that we didn't have to worry about any loose ends. He is a great communicator and extends a sense of peace and positivity that allowed us to enjoy the whole process and go through our big day with minimal worry. We gave him a short list of must play songs, along with a couple of genre and artist preferences and he got the mix for our night perfectly. Our guests had lots of fun and didn't stop dancing until the end of the night. We recommend Czar 100% and hope to hire him again for any future family parties!

The University Club by Wedgewood Weddings made planning our wedding from out of state incredibly smooth. Their team responded quickly to every question. On the day of, we didn't have to worry about organizing or corralling people because everything was already set up and running like clockwork. The venue itself is beautiful and clean, and we were impressed by how reasonable and all inclusive their pricing was. We felt completely taken care of from start to finish, and we'd absolutely recommend them to any couple looking for a convenient and reliable venue. Lisa was the best day of coordinator and we got to be fully present and enjoy our day without worrying about any logistics.

From our very first phone call, Jen was incredibly sweet, professional, and responsive. Throughout the entire planning process, she was always available to answer my questions and offered thoughtful, helpful advice. Her experience with Southern California venues really showed—she was already familiar with my reception venue, which made everything so much easier and less stressful for me. One thoughtful touch that really stood out was that she sent her assistant coordinator to be onsite for our rehearsal day. It was so reassuring to have that support and guidance leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Jen and her team were amazing. They made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I could clearly see how much wedding experience she has—she was organized, calm, and completely prepared for anything that came up. Thanks to Jen, my now-husband and I were able to fully enjoy our special day without any stress. I’m so grateful we had her by our side and I would highly recommend JenEvents to any future bride!
