We hired Intrinsic Groove to perform at our wedding in April 2026 and it was nothing short of INCREDIBLE. We watched a lot of videos and felt confident they were going to be great, but they far exceeded our expectations. They were high energy, crowd engaging, phenomenal performers who met the vibe every single time. Vocals were KILLER. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and I credit a lot of that to the energy the band brought. On top of a killer reception, they also did incredible ceremony and cocktail hour music that made everything flow harmoniously. You just can’t beat a killer band for your wedding, worth every penny! Highly recommend “Like a Prayer” by Madonna to get all generations singing along!! Photo Credit to our epic photographer, Victoria of An Endless Pursuit

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 Dominq was a whole vibe as he hyped the crowd and set the tone in getting everyone on to the dance floor with his enthusiasm, energy and music. He even joined in on some of the dancing, which I loved, and after my wedding, many raved about his dancing and DJ skills. He made our wedding unforgettable! During the planning of my wedding, he always had timely responses and communicated professionally and was reliable. I would highly recommend him for any event and will definitely be using him again in the future!

If we could give Dj Carlos a 10 star rating we would. Firstly, he was prompt and prepared for all our meetings. Our confidence in him increased because he asked the right questions to get to know us and what we were trying to create for our big day. He was genuinely excited for us. Secondly, on the big day, Carlos exceeded our expectations. Whether it was announcing the wedding party or getting people on the dance floor, he had just the right energy to make the whole day flow. One thing we did not want was an “over the top, loud Dj.” And Carlos was NOT that Dj. For us, he was perfection. He balanced the various musical genres so that all ages enjoyed the dance floor and kept the energy of the crowd going. We can’t say enough about him. After the wedding, our friends and family gave him so many compliments and asked for the playlist he created; at our request he pulled together the songs and put it on Spotify so that we could share it with others. Carlos is a skilled Dj and just as important to us, a quality person. Would hire him again in a second.

Where do I begin?? I booked DJ Will to be my MC and wedding reception DJ and he was everything me & my husband could’ve asked for and more! We’re big hip hop & EDM fans and Will thoughtfully curated a set that my guests went crazy for. I did not leave the dance floor once! We also booked The LoveTap for lasers and they went above and beyond for our dance floor set up! Everyone was talking about the lasers and CO2 gun that also made for AMAZING photos. Not only were Conner and Will super responsive and just good vibes overall from the first intro meeting to the final details meeting — But they were incredibly honest and shared SO many pieces of advice from past weddings they’ve DJ’d and MC’d before that we hadn’t thought of. Their expertise definitely helped make the overall flow of the wedding and timeline so much smoother. Conner and Will — If I could have a wedding every year, I would book you guys over and over again! Thank you SO MUCH for creating the wedding reception of my dreams. I’m forever grateful!

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

I’m a San Diego-based DJ/MC with 15+ years of experience, and I still love what I do. I’ve worked hundreds of weddings and events of all sizes, from intimate gatherings to events with 1,000+ guests. I’ve worked with couples from all kinds of backgrounds and cultures, and I’ve even DJed weddings internationally. I keep things personal, keep things flowing, and make sure everyone is having a great time. I read the room, mix live, set the vibe, and know when to turn things up. I’m confident on the mic, easy to work with, and focused on making sure your wedding feels like you.

Michael was the perfect DJ for our wedding! He was so professional and fun and made our vision come to life! It was so nice knowing he was in control of the music flow as everything went exactly according to plan. He really did a superb job guiding the whole evening and nailing all of our requests. It was incredible enjoying the day knowing he was taking care of all the music and microphones and having everything flow so smoothly. We can’t speak highly enough about having him as our DJ. Thank you so much Michael for not only being a part of our special day and making it fun but by also taking the stress off of us by allowing the flow of the evening to go so smoothly with your guidance and expertise.

We loved working with DJ John at our wedding! From the very beginning, he was super personable and easy to talk to — he really got to know us and our style, which made everything feel so effortless. The music portal Vibo, was so easy to use for uploading songs and highlighting our “must plays,” which took a lot of stress out of planning. He knew exactly how to read the room and keep the energy going all night. He killed it at our reception with the Loteria game and worked with my Dad to MC the game. Wonderful to work with and highly recommend.

We had such a wonderful experience with DJ Steve! We knew that music was going to be such an important part of our day! He provided us with an app that let us add playlists from Apple music, spotify, youtube or select individual songs for each part of our day. It was extremely straight forward and easy to use. He got the dance floor going and played the songs we had selected in such a fun way, our dance floor was packed the entire time and the vibe was amazing! Steve was so amazing to work with and we had multiple people afterwards say how amazing the DJ was. I would definitely suggest Steve for your wedding!

Hi, I'm Leon! I grew up in the Bay Area, worked in radio, studied music and culture in grad school, and spent years at a large DJ company where I was a manager and the highest-reviewed DJ. When I realized that our values weren't compatible, I left to build something different—a space where every detail matters and showing up for each other is just the baseline.

Leon was easy to work with from the moment we met him. He was communicative and matched our vision for our reception. He played our favorite songs and mixed up the vibes when needed to keep people on the dance floor. He worked seamlessly with our coordinator to keep the night on track.

I’ve spent the past 12 years DJing over 400 weddings, and every one of them has shaped my signature approach: luxury without stuffiness, energy without gimmicks. As a multi-award-winning DJ featured in national publications, I bring more than music… I bring an atmosphere. From the moment your guests arrive to the last song of the night, everything feels intentional, seamless, and unforgettable. My mixes are live, my MC work is polished, and my goal is simple: to make your wedding the one everyone talks about long after the lights come up.

We had THE BEST time at our wedding!! Everyone was beaming about how much fun DJ Cameron was and how much fun they had on our dance floor! DJ Cameron Martin was the best! He didn’t just play from a playlist but actually live mixed the music and DJ’d the same way you'd hear at a nightclub... unlike so many weddings we’ve been to. We danced for hours and he kept the energy at a peak from start to finish. Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ. THANK YOU DJ CAMERON!!

Hey there, I'm DJ Preston! My DJ journey began at 15, and it's been an incredible ride ever since. Starting in 1995, I spun tracks for school dances, bars, and clubs, then moved into radio, spending 8 years on air. I've performed at award shows, corporate events, weddings, and traveled the country for nightclub gigs, even sharing stages with big-name artists. Recently, I was honored as one of the best wedding DJs in San Diego by California Wedding Day in 2024. I love creating unforgettable atmospheres where everyone can dance and have an amazing time.

We interviewed several DJ's before settling on DJ Preston for our wedding at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We were impressed with Preston's responses to our interview, we could tell he cared about attention to detail and enjoyed his craft. On the day of the wedding Preston was an absolute professional. The music was the perfect volume from pre-ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner to dancing. The audio for all speeches was perfect as well. I heard from several of our guests "the DJ was great!" so what else is there to say? I didn't have much banter with Preston before or after the wedding, but if you're looking for a professional who pays attention to the details and delivers a great set, then Preston is your guy! He did a great job reading the vibe for our dollar dance and facilitating an amazing night. Thanks Preston!!

He's done cocktail hour (piano & singing) as well as playing throughout dinner... its unreal how talented he is.

New to Zola, but trusted at weddings and events throughout Southern California for OVER 15 YEARS, 500+ WEDDINGS. Jukebox Entertainment Live blends high energy live musicianship with seamless DJ coverage to create unforgettable celebrations and packed dance floors. Live band energy. Seamless DJ flow. Unforgettable weddings.

Do not hesitate...book JukeBox!!!. I promise you will be in the best hands. I was lucky enough to experience JukeBox firsthand at my brother-in-law’s wedding, and I am not exaggerating when I say the band was THE highlight of the night. As a guest, my experience with them was a 10000/10. The range and variety of music, the talent of every single member, and the sheer level of performance brought so much fun and energy to the night. It truly felt like a private concert! Guests were crowding the front of the stage, every age group was dancing, and I genuinely did not want to leave the dance floor. After that night, I knew my husband and I had to have them at our wedding. When it came time to book entertainment, we didn’t even consider anyone else. Now speaking as a bride: Jon, David, and the entire team behind the scenes are professional, kind, responsive, organized, and genuinely wonderful people. Meeting with Jon to plan everything was seamless. We felt comfortable right away, everything was explained clearly, and there were absolutely no surprises. They truly care about giving you the best possible experience and work with you to make your vision come to life. Trust can be hard to come by when you’re wedding planning. You’re spending so much money, and it’s honestly nerve-wracking not knowing if everything will live up to what you’re hoping for — especially with such a huge day on the line. But JukeBox is NOT a vendor you need to second-guess. They are worth every single penny!!! David is an incredible MC who kept the entire evening flowing effortlessly. We incorporated a Filipino money dance into our reception, and I was so unsure about what music to use. David patiently worked through my many emails, helped guide me through the decision, and I never once had to second-guess that it would all come together smoothly. On the wedding day, it was seamless. They are a well oiled machine and they operate so flawlessly and are truly such a driving force to the party!! During the planning process, David was always responsive and attentive, and everything felt completely tailored to us. He even professionally cut and edited our first dance and father-daughter dance songs, and they turned out perfectly. Our dance floor was packed all night long & guests are still talking about how amazing the band was just like they still talk about them from my brother-in-law’s wedding. We cannot recommend JukeBox highly enough. They made our wedding reception unforgettable and truly brought our dream celebration to life. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!!

San Diego’s premier female DJ & MC, getting shorty fire-burning on the dance floor since 2012! With her exceptional skills in DJing and MCing, she has become the go-to choice for all types of events, ranging from elegant weddings to large corporate events, intimate house parties to dancy bars and clubs. You will typically catch DJ Tigerlily mixing between hiphop, pop, rock, house, electro, funk, disco, and latin tracks, old school to the new. No two playlists are ever the same with this DJ as she thoughtfully prepares for each event based off her client's musical tastes and later builds off the crowd's reaction.

Lily DJ-ed at our wedding in May 2024, and we cannot recommend her enough! She was friendly, responsive, organized, and clearly had a lot of valuable experience in the industry. She did an amazing job using our playlist as inspiration to keep everyone on the dance floor. She read the dance floor really well, making adjustments quickly to maintain the right energy. The vibes were great (all thanks to her!!), and many of our guests made it a point to let us know she did a great job. A friend even said DJ Tiger Lily was the best DJ they'd ever seen at a wedding, which was a high compliment! We highly recommend her for your events, and we are definitely keeping her in mind for any future events!

Hey! I’m Pat, a solo guitarist and singer based in San Diego. I’ve been performing for over 20 years and love creating the perfect atmosphere for each couple’s special day. Whether it’s a relaxed cocktail hour or a lively reception, I tailor my set to fit the moment and bring good energy through timeless classics and feel good favorites. Music has always been my way of connecting with people, and it’s an honor to help make weddings unforgettable through the songs everyone loves.

Patrick made our elopement on Sunset Cliffs absolutely magical. His live versions of They Love Each Other by the Grateful Dead and In the Morning Light by Billy Strings fit the moment perfectly. He’s talented, kind, and intuitive exactly the kind of musician you want for a meaningful event.
