John responds in a timely manner and holds efficient planning calls where he asks all the right questions to prepare for your big day. I was delighted to receive a link to his planning site where I could select songs I wanted to hear and upload my timeline and details. John is highly organized, takes the time to get everything right and clarifies with you if he has any concerns. As far as execution on my wedding day: many of my guests told me it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and this was in large part because of the fantastic DJ'ing and MC'ing. Our dance floor was packed from when it opened til last call. John even did a fantastic job selecting songs with just the vibe I wanted for the dinner portion of the night. Everyone commented on the great music - across all age groups - and had a blast. John even brings fantastic party lights that really get everyone in the mood to dance. On top of that, John is delightful and kind. John also took care of the sound for our ceremony and did a great job making sure our vows were clear on the beach over the sounds of the waves. Hire John for your wedding or big day. You will not regret it.

John is professional, responsive to email, experienced, great MC, wonderful positive energy, and made the reception fun! He showed up early to set up and did a perfect job providing music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. The online platform to add our songs was great because we could write in the songs that must be played, played if possible, songs to avoid, etc. and place our timeline in there. John was incredible DJ -- I don't normally write reviews but John deserves all the 5 stars and beyond, thank you so much for helping make our wedding day so special!!

His system made it easy to specify which songs to play and which to avoid. We provided several playlists for different parts of the day (ceremony, cocktail hour), and Anthony kept the vibes spot on during dinner even without a prepared playlist. We also had many specific moments where we wanted certain songs played at exact times, and Anthony nailed every single one down to the second. He truly helped us have the wedding party of our dreams and we had so much fun!

We had curated some music that were a little more obscure but DJ Evan was able to find them and mix them with no problems!

We'd highly recommend DNA entertainment for any event.

This review is long overdue, but I absolutely have to share how incredible Leo and his team at…read moreCentral Coast Entertainment were for our wedding at Carmel Fields by Wedgewood Weddings. From the very first Zoom call, Leo went above and beyond to understand the vibe we wanted and made the entire planning process so seamless and stress-free. He genuinely cared about our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions, and made us feel confident that our day would be perfect. Lupe, our DJ, was absolutely phenomenal. He had everyone dancing all night, reading the room perfectly, and keeping the energy nonstop. Every song was perfectly timed, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how amazing he was. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the last, and it was honestly one of the highlights of the night. We also added the 360 photo booth (highly recommend!), the multimedia booth, and the smoke/cloud effect for our first dance--and these were some of the best decisions we made. The booths were a huge hit with our guests, and the smoke effect during our first dance was just magical--it made the moment feel cinematic and unforgettable. Elia, Leo's wife and our photobooth attendant, was phenomenal as well. She was warm, sweet, and made everyone feel comfortable while helping guests get the best shots. I even ran into her at my cousin's wedding six months later, and she was just as kind and engaging as she had been at our wedding, which really shows the character and dedication of the team. On top of everything, Leo surprised us with beautifully edited highlight videos of our wedding. This was completely unexpected and such a thoughtful gift--it captured all the energy, emotion, and joy of the day in a way we will treasure forever. Our guests are still talking about how professional, talented, and fun every member of Leo's team was. From setup to performance, everything was seamless, polished, and executed with so much care. Leo, Lupe, Elia, and the whole team made our wedding truly unforgettable. If you want an entertainment team that goes above and beyond, keeps your guests on their feet, and adds those extra touches that make your day magical, you absolutely cannot go wrong with Central Coast Entertainment. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we will be booking them again for future events without hesitation.

But that's not all...John the owner was super responsive and always answered all of my questions! But I really wanted to give a HUGE shout out to DJ Willi who ran our entire evening from the ceremony to the last song. DJ Willi was super nice and listened to what we wanted on our big day which is so important. I also appreciated that he would come over to us at the reception and let us know the time as well (to keep us on track - and asked what we wanted to do) because things can be SO chaotic during the reception. He played music that catered to all ages and everyone could not stop dancing!! I still have people calling me a week later saying that it was the best dance floor and music they've ever experienced at a wedding ... it was so amazing. Thanks DJ Willi and Kelly productions !!

Turns out most entertainment businesses don't rent out just karaoke systems, they also include a DJ! I was able to reach out to at least 5 businesses via Yelp. DJ Jaron instantly impressed me by responding within 15 minutes with a flat rate estimate and package already prepared. Jaron answered all my questions and always responded quickly (weekdays before 7pm). He's easy to work with and great to have conversations with! He also emailed an excel file for song requests to be played between karaoke songs chosen onsite. Clear and consistent communication via Yelp, email, and text. My event was within a week and a half and we needed karaoke services plus possibly disco lighting for 3 hours. JBQAV absolutely delivered! DJ Jaron's karaoke service included a sound system, staging lights, unlimited virtual meetings, $1M liability insurance, and over 69,000 songs. We also had 4 wireless microphones, 24" screen for singers to view the lyrics and I upgraded to the 65" screen instead of the 36" for $200 extra so the audience could sing along. Participants were able to view the tablet set up on the side to choose songs and write down the song/artist choice, plus name of person singing. It was cool seeing my name as a singer on the large screen! I loved hearing the song playlist I submit during set up and while people were choosing songs to sing. Dance pop is my jam! Anything that encourages people to get up and dance wins. I was already dancing around to Down by Jay Sean, Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney, and jamming to Titanium. Haha total millennial! Huge THANK YOU to DJ Jaron for making this karaoke event unforgettable!! My coworkers will be talking about this for a very long time.
