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.

We cannot recommend Brandon enough — he made our wedding absolutely unforgettable! From the very first planning meeting, Brandon's communication and professionalism stood out. He met with us multiple times to make sure every detail was mapped out, and he made collaborating so easy through shared Google Docs and Spotify playlists. He even let us pick his suit color, and we chose pink to match our garden party theme — such a fun, personal touch! During our happy hour, Brandon played acoustic guitar and took song requests, walking around and engaging with our guests the whole time. I was upstairs getting ready and could hear our guests singing along — it set the perfect tone for the whole night before we'd even started! He brought incredible energy, fun, and professionalism to every part of our event. Brandon pumped up the crowd for our first entry as husband and wife and kept everyone engaged all night long. He even brought additional uplighting to enhance our dance floor, which made everything feel even more magical. Throughout the evening, Brandon checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and to see if we wanted to add any last-minute touches. He truly was a crowd favorite, and so many of our guests commented on how much they loved him. After the wedding, Brandon went above and beyond with a heartfelt follow-up note and shared beautiful videos he'd taken throughout the night — such a thoughtful way to wrap up the experience. Brandon isn't just a DJ, he's a true entertainer and a joy to work with. We highly, highly recommend him for your wedding or any event!

First of all, the booking process with AZBESTDJ Team was a breeze . We booked directly with DJ Daniel, the owner and team leader of AZBESTDJ Team. About a month before our wedding, he let us know he would personally be our DJ on our big day which made us even more excited. A few weeks before the wedding, Daniel took the time to go over our music ideas, from the ceremony to the dance floor. On our wedding day, he timed our processional music perfectly and gave a heartfelt introduction before my dad's toast that meant a lot to our family. If you want a DJ who truly listens, cares about the details, and puts your music first, we highly recommend AZBESTDJ Team.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hiring DJ Jas was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding weekend. He handled everything: our rehearsal dinner, welcome party, Baraat, ceremony, reception, choreographed dances, and the full dance floor - and absolutely crushed every single moment. From day one, he was incredibly thorough and intentional in his preparation. He met with us as often as we wanted, took the time to really understand us as a couple, and made the entire collaboration feel effortless. He welcomed our playlists and suggestions, but also took creative ownership in a way that elevated everything. The result? There was never a dull moment. The dance floor was electric. Truly. He had it rocking all night long. Multiple guests came up to us throughout the weekend saying how incredible the DJ was and how much the music stood out across all of our events. And the Baraat… that was next level. This is a non-traditional element for many DJs, but he embraced it fully and CRUSHED it. Mobbed down State Street with him by our side, music blasting, our friends and family dancing through the streets - it was one of the best moments of our lives. He understood the cultural importance and delivered beyond what we imagined. Beyond his talent, he genuinely cared about us. He was easy to talk to, always available for questions, calm, collaborative, and fully invested in making our wedding unforgettable. We truly couldn’t imagine a better DJ for our weekend. If you want a packed dance floor, flawless execution, and someone who deeply cares about getting it right - DJ JAS is your guy. Could not recommend more.

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!

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.

From our first conversation with The LoveTap, we knew we had found our DJ. Conner was so easy to work with during planning. He not only listened to our ideas but he actually helped us make them better. When we weren't sure about our grand entrance and had asked his thoughts, he knew exactly what to do. He also helped with our father/daughter dance and made the song the perfect length. One thing that stood out was when I recorded a tribute to my mom instead of doing a speech, and Conner mixed it into a song that played perfectly during the ceremony. He didn't stop there either. During the reception, he surprised us by weaving part of my sister's MOH speech into Promiscuous Girl, and honestly, it was one of the coolest moments of the night. Our guests couldn't stop talking about it. The dance floor stayed packed the entire time, with people telling us afterward that they literally never left it. Hiring Conner was such a great decision, and we'd recommend The LoveTap to any couple looking for a DJ who actually cares about making your day special and helping you throw the best party ever.

We found Tyler after going to a friend’s wedding and his music spoke for itself, we knew we had to have Tyler at ours. He was seriously one of the best parts of our weekend in Todos Santos. He was super easy to work with from the start, very professional and everything with him felt simple and stress free. We knew we were in good hands from the start. What made it even better was how he fit right in with everyone. He, and his assistant Tim, were hanging out and making friends with our guests in the days leading up to the wedding, so by the time the actual party started, it felt like they were already a part of the group. It made the whole night that much more fun. And the party absolutely went off. The dance floor was packed the entire time, the sax was such a hit, and he knew exactly how to keep the energy up. People were dancing all night and we had so many guests talking about how great he was afterward. He even MCed for us in English and Spanish. And to top it off, he joined all of our guests in an epic pool plunge to end the night. We couldn’t recommend Tyler enough. He brought the party and helped make the night unforgettable.

We had a custom request of "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran and he took the time to learn it for us and turned out exactly as we hoped. HIGHLY recommend CelloJoe!

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.

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.

We cannot say enough amazing things about DJ Chris Georgios! From start to finish, he absolutely crushed it at our wedding. He read the room perfectly, kept the energy high, and created the exact vibe we were hoping for. Every transition was smooth, every song hit just right, and he truly made the night feel like us. Our guests are still raving AND will continue to, about how fun the dance floor was! Chris was also incredibly professional, extremely personable and easy to work with leading up to the big day. We honestly felt like we had known him for years. He would stop and call me right away if I needed something. He listened to our preferences, offered helpful suggestions, and made sure the timeline flowed seamlessly. We’re so grateful for the unforgettable experience he created. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to throw a party and keep the magic alive all night long, DJ Chris is your guy! We loved YOU!!! P.S. the impromptu "One last breath by Creed" karoke from Walker was a HIT and so fun. - The Andersons
