The Celebration DJ

  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,400
  • Serves Santa Barbara, 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 was an outstanding DJ who supported our wedding this last February. I loved that he had outfit options, as our wedding was themed "Love Through the Ages" and we requested all of our guests to wear attire from their favorite decade. It was fabulous that we were able to pick his super awesome outfit to stand out (and in theme) for the wedding. He curated the most amazing playlist, based on our theme, so we got to drift through music from the 20's, 30's, 40's, and all the way through to current day. He is such a charismatic and engaging host and was able to convince folks (who I never thought would have danced) to get onto the dance floor. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with Brandon's talents and feel so grateful that The Knot had him on their vendor list for us to find.”

“Where do we even begin?! We found Justin (DJ JAS) on TikTok and were instantly impressed by his smooth transitions, creative remixes, and upbeat style — but WOW, he completely exceeded our expectations. From day one, Justin was professional, responsive, and incredibly detail-oriented. He helped us curate custom playlists for every part of the day — from pre-ceremony to our final dance — setting the perfect tone and mood at every stage. Music was one of our top priorities, and thanks to DJ JAS, our dance floor was PACKED all night long. We’re talking sore-feet-the-next-day energy (which he promised us in one of our planning meetings — and delivered 1000%). One of our groomsmen literally skipped the bar, the photobooth, and the guestbook because “the jams were just too good.” Beyond the party, Justin handled all things audio like a pro — our ceremony mic setup was crystal clear, and he even coordinated directly with our officiant before the ceremony to make sure everything ran smoothly. He was also incredibly respectful and flexible when my dad planned a surprise — communicating ahead of time and helping pull it off flawlessly. Hiring DJ JAS was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. His energy, skill, and professionalism made the entire day unforgettable. We cannot recommend him enough and are already dreaming up another event just so we can work with him again!”

Hi! My name is Tommy - AKA, DJ Blasé. I've been a DJ for 6 years now - I love being able to bring people together through the power of music! I DJ events ranging from weddings to birthday parties, brunches to dances, and each time, I find myself getting the most joy from watching strangers connect with each other on the dance floor. To me, that's the most important part of my job: helping people connect with one another.

“Working with DJ Blasé was a seamless experience from start to finish. His communication throughout the planning process was efficient and timely, making it easy to coordinate all the details leading up to the wedding day. What stood out the most was how they took the time to learn which songs were meaningful to us as a couple and incorporated those into the reception while still keeping the dance floor packed with tracks everyone wanted to hear. They brought a unique and conceptual approach to the night that elevated it beyond just playing music—it felt like they genuinely understood the vibe we were going for. If you're looking for a DJ who delivers both professionalism and fun, DJ Blasé is absolutely worth booking.”

Our experience at nearly every Santa Barbara wedding venue ensures the best staging and acoustics possible for your wedding or other events. Our personalized DJ service includes meeting with you to design your day and making sure your wedding reception or special event has only the best professional equipment and a disc jockey with a tremendous amount of experience – and the same degree of enthusiasm.

“We had Music by Bonnie provide the DJ services for our wedding and couldn't be happier with how responsive and helpful they were throughout the planning process. Bonnie and her team showed up as true professionals with genuine warmth, and they really went the extra mile to make our guests feel welcome. The photobooth and dance floor lights were standout additions that kept everyone entertained all night—the photobooth especially was a huge hit with our crowd. Our only hiccup was that we weren't given a heads up before certain events kicked off, like when it was announced that the bouquet toss was starting while I was still in the photobooth having fun with guests. If I were to do it again, I would have communicated better with Bonnie to make sure everyone was in the right place for those events. For the price point, the service and energy they brought felt like great value, and we'd definitely consider booking with Bonnie again.”

“From the very beginning, working with Joe was an incredible experience. Joe was professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our wedding day exactly what we envisioned. Communication was excellent throughout the entire planning process, and he made himself available for phone calls whenever we had questions or wanted to go over details. The music planning forms were easy to use and made organizing everything—from our ceremony music to the reception—simple and stress-free. Our venue had several different areas that all required separate sound setups, including the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and reception, and everything transitioned seamlessly. One of the biggest challenges was that our ceremony location didn't have electrical power, but Joe came fully prepared with a system that worked flawlessly. Every ceremony cue was timed perfectly, and hearing each song start exactly when it was supposed to made the ceremony feel even more special. Throughout the reception, Joe kept everything running smoothly. The sound quality was excellent, announcements were clear, and he did an outstanding job reading the crowd while also honoring the atmosphere and music we wanted. The dance floor stayed full all night, and we've had so many guests tell us how much fun they had. If you're looking for a professional, organized, and talented wedding DJ, I can't recommend Joe enough. He exceeded our expectations in every way and played a huge part in making our wedding unforgettable.”

“Having a violinist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour was one of the best decisions that we made, and Sweet Harmony made it SO easy. They were communicative, professional, and had a platform that made choosing songs and getting organized a breeze. It was affordable as far as wedding add-ons goes and classed up the wedding, our guests were all excited and impressed. Our violinist was incredibly talented and added an incredible flair. We chose a hip hop theme he nailed it (classy but also super fun and energetic). My only regret is that we were so busy that we didn't get to stop and truly appreciate it as much as we should have.

“Conner made our wedding beyond perfect. He did an amazing job with preparation and the day itself. Before the wedding, we met with him a couple times to go through his spreadsheet to map out songs and playlists on a clear timeline for the day. He was both super organized and very flexible, offering suggestions and asking questions to understand exactly what we wanted. He absolutely nailed EVERYTHING, from our ceremony songs, to cocktail hour, to reception speeches/dances/announcements, and finally music on the dance floor. We have a wide variety of friends and family with different ages and tastes in music, and he got EVERYONE (even people we thought wouldn’t dance) on the dance floor ALL throughout the night. Transitions were perfect, he kept the energy so high, and we had the best night ever. On top of all of that, he also handled the mic setup for the ceremony. Every wedding I’ve been to has had problems with the mics, or people can’t hear, but Conner set everything up perfectly and even walked our officiant through everything before the ceremony. Conner was one of the main reasons our wedding was so perfect. Thank you Conner!”
