On the day of, they kept the party going strong even when my husband and I were pulled away to other things. The people at the reception had so much fun dancing the night away thanks to Joe, the DJ, who was excellent. Joe led the guests in fun dances and kept us all pumped up! Even the groom, who is not a big dancer (yet!), was super impressed with Joe's work - which is saying a lot. Tempoe provided great value and quality service that contributed greatly to making our special day perfect. Joe also helped a lot with getting us to think through some of wedding details. His input helped us be more sure as we finalized. If we have another party of any kind, we will hire Tempoe! Just so great overall!”

The Celebration DJ

Rating: 5.0 (39 reviews)

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.”

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 enjoy bringing together families and friends to forget about their problems for a day and just enjoy life and celebrate.

“DJ Dominiq is an exceptional wedding DJ who consistently delivers an incredible experience. His communication style is incredibly helpful, thorough, and fun - he is truly experienced in ensuring every detail is covered. The quality of his work and value is unmatched, as he provides a highly customized and perfected performance tailored to the couple's needs. Dominiq's expertise shines through in the seamless way he manages every event, anticipating needs and keeping the timeline on track even when unexpected changes arise. His passion for what he does is infectious, and his ability to read the room and adapt the music to suit every guest is remarkable. He has worked with every kind of music and genre and makes it look like every style is his favorite (maybe it is because his love of music really shows). I've never seen a DJ who is as skilled at engaging the entire crowd and creating an unforgettable celebration. Dominiq takes professionalism to a new level and is simply the best in the business.”

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.

Serves Santa Barbara, 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

“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!!!)”

“What an amazing experience working with Joey. He was very thoughtful in curating the music for our day and I hope you find what you are looking for with him. I am a wedding vendor of 15 years as well doing hair, makeup and morning concierge. One of my past brides at one of my most favorite venues to work at is how I was introduced to Joey. After coming out of the hair room I love taking a moment to walk around the venue and there he was playing the cello along with some background music. I was hooked. I love that he was incorporating songs of today with the art of an instrument. I found it unique and something I wanted to showcase at my wedding. I didn’t want people to walk up to just music playing in the space, but an experience. Joey took the time to do 2 calls with us, one being over the phone and the second being over zoom. He came with a detailed questionnaire of how we wanted our wedding to go. It was so detailed that even a music mood girl I didn’t even think of. The calls were scheduled for 30 minutes but he didn’t hesitate to chat with me for over an hour on how I wanted it to be curated. I had already started 2 wedding playlists, but he added and sent me 5 to 6 albums to fill out of songs I loved and wanted. I had over 10 hours of music to play and not only did he take those into consideration he added music that my guests also requested. He even accepted me saying change this song and only play the 10 year olds music every 10 songs He needed to set up in two spaces, one for the ceremony which was outside on our property. He was set up and playing by the time guests arrived. Everyone I spoke with loved the music selection, which I told him “Bridgerton vibes” and he ran with it. After the ceremony his assistant had music playing for the cocktail hour while they broke down the equipment in the ceremony area. I was blown away by the lights that were brought and the look of everything. Microphones worked for speeches and he even had a stand for those who wanted to use them. We didn’t do a traditional walk in but he announced us perfectly and we ran around the tables saying hello to our friends and family. I would recommend Joey to anyone looking to have an experience for their guests, have a DJ but also want strings all in one. He was professional, timely and for someone who did not have a day of coordination or planner very informative. I wanted vendors to do what they do best and I’m glad I trusted him to provide us with music throughout the day and night!”

Bouquet Sound

DJ
Starts at $1,995
Serves Santa Barbara, CA

Our wedding DJ’s are some of the best around and finding them was not an easy task. It took and still takes a very long process to find DJ’s that are up to the Bouquet Sound standard. Once we find someone, we put them through a rigorous training process so they meet all of our requirements that our clients expect when hiring Bouquet Sound. This is what your guests will take home from them. Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life. It is even more important for us to put that same love and care into your event!

“If we could give DJ Matt w/ Bouquet Sound more than 5 stars, I’d do it in a heartbeat! He was honestly a game changer for our big day, and we can’t imagine our wedding if he hadn’t been there. From the very start Bouquet Sound was prompt with replies and professional in answering all of our questions as we coordinated the music we wanted for our wedding. On top of the music, Matt was a MAJOR help in ensuring our timing and event went smoothly and remained on track throughout the day and night. You won’t find a better, nicer, more talented DJ than DJ Matt. He found a way to incorporate all of our requests and keep the party jumpin’ all night! Thank you so much for a night we’ll never forget!”

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.

“Literally from the first interaction, Trey was thoroughly professional. We knew instantly that we'd be in good hands during the process, and he maintained through the big day. With Trey, we always had clarity over next steps, and we also got as much flexibility as we could ever hope for. We had a slightly unusual (or, unconventional) ceremony in a couple of ways, and Trey handled every request without any issue. Lastly, and most importantly for a DJ, he nailed the music. We felt like he "got" us while also filling in the gaps appropriately. A true professional, and we feel fortunate having him on the deck for our celebration.”
