About DJ Shanghai

DJ Shanghai

Female DJ/Owner

With DJ Shanghai, every musical moment is intentional, from the walk down the aisle to the final song. I don’t rely on trends; I design a soundtrack that feels like you are guided by your energy, culture, and the atmosphere you want to create. Rather than using a preset playlist, I intuitively blend your selections with tracks that elevate the mood and keep guests connected. Couples say, “It felt like you knew exactly what we needed.” This is more than music...it’s mood, memory, and magic.

DJ Shanghai doesn’t use outdated games or generic playlists. I curate an experience rooted in your vibe, blending nostalgia, modern energy, and cultural intuition. Every moment is tailored to reflect your style, your people, and the atmosphere you want to create. Couples choose me for more than “just a DJ”. They want someone who reads the room and makes the night unforgettable.

    DJ Shanghai is a must have!

    Asia was truly sooo AMAZING. From start to finish, she was super communicative and had a very personable and customized approach to DJing our wedding. The day wouldn't have been what it was without her.

    One of my favorite vendors!

    DJ Shanghai was the perfect choice for our wedding day. From the beginning, her communication style was punctual, considerate, clear, and reliable - exactly what we needed during the busy wedding planning season. Her expertise and use of planning technologies made choosing our music a breeze. Shanghai's work was truly priceless and necessary to making our special day perfect. We would 10/10 recommend her as any couple's DJ, and we feel very lucky to have found her for our wedding.

    Amazing DJ!

    DJ Shanghai was a huge asset for us on our wedding day! For full transparency, we provided less source material for the general ambience and theme, but she immediately picked up the ideas and supplemented the rest! Additionally, the communication and coordination was more than excellent! There were a couple of times we had to change or pivot from the plans or ideas we had, and she was extremely patient and willing to work with us. If you're looking for someone with a strong work ethic, good sense of creativity, and easy to work with, definitely consider DJ Shanghai!

    Thank you so much for your kind words! It was such an honor to be a part of your wedding day and help bring your vision to life. I appreciate your trust in me to fill in the gaps and adapt as things shifted. That kind of flexibility and collaboration always leads to the best vibes! Wishing you both a lifetime of love, joy, and unforgettable music.

    Great DJ!

    DJ Shanghai was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, Asia, the owner, was in constant communication with us to ensure she included everything we wanted for our special day. She was incredibly fast, efficient, and understanding, especially when I had to take a step back from wedding planning due to a bout of food poisoning a few days before the big day. Using an app called Vibo, Asia made it so easy to figure out the perfect song lineup and timeline, ensuring we were listening to a fun, lively, and exciting mix all night long. Despite the last-minute planning crunch, Asia's professionalism and attention to detail shone through, and our guests raved about the incredible energy and entertainment she provided. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ experience!
