David Newton served as the DJ and Emcee for our daughter's recent wedding at the Franciscan Gardens in San Juan Capistrano. We were in good hands with David at the helm of the event. David is professional, warm, prompt with communication, pleasant, and clearly loves hosting events. Our guests were warmly welcomed by David as he offered clear direction and assisted with event transitions. It was a pleasure working with David through the planning process and of course the day of the wedding. read more

We had the time of our lives at our 50th wedding anniversary party with David Newton as MC and DJ. From the initial consult, to the video conference 2 weeks before, he listened to our ideas and offered subtle advice and suggestions. Our guests ranged in age from 13 to 75, and he played not only the songs we love, but the songs that got all ages out to the dance floor. Even creating a special choreographed moment to highlight our special song. He instilled confidence in us that the event would go smoothly and stay on time. Everyone said they had so much fun! I highly recommend him for your next event. read more

David was very quick with communication and coordinating on our music playlists and event schedule. read more

Laying by the pool the day after our incredible wedding, my wife and I are reflecting on how amazing David not only DJ'd our dance party that had the place rocking, but coordinated each part of our event getting people where they needed to be and setting up all our speakers for success with great intros and direction. Thank you DJ David! read more

David was incredible. We threw several curveballs at him and he adjusted very well and helped make the time special! Our venue layout was a challenge when officiating the ceremony and we also gave him our first dance song five minutes before, and he put the entire show on with zero stress. Our guests loved him - he was very classy at a classy event, while relaxed and warm. David, a HUGE thank you for making our day a success! From Italy, Robert and Courtney read more

We loved working with David! He's clearly got a lot of experience putting on weddings and that was clear as we met with him and worked on putting together our perfect musical experience for our wedding. With the 2 forms he had us fill out, it really helped us not only think about what songs needed to be played but also some of the logistical aspects of the flow of the ceremony and the reception that we may have otherwise missed. David provided us with fantastic feedback for our decisions which also helped us consider what type of wedding we want to have. Throughout the reception, he was a warm and friendly MC. We gave David a fair amount of freedom to choose various songs during different parts of the reception and that was a big hit with our guests. Finally, during the final hours of dancing he artfully included all of our requests and was even able to fulfill one of our guests impromptu requests. David is experienced, flexible and fun and will do everything in his ability to make sure the party is memorable! read more

David Newton - David Newton, DJ/MC extraordinaire! - DJs Near Me

This review is for my September 3rd wedding. I have nothing but praise for David for his organization, thoroughness, and timely communication in the planning stages. The Word doc he developed was extremely helpful in outlining the flow of the evening. David also did a wonderful job facilitating the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception setup, plus all of the usual reception activities (cake cutting, wedding party intros, etc.), and he has excellent emceeing skills. The wedding day went as smoothly as it did thanks to him. However, I do wish the dancing portion of the evening had gone differently. There was a disconnect between our expectations and David's gameplan for the evening. I worked months on a playlist that I knew my guests would love as it was full of inside jokes and memories, and I thought there was a mutual agreement that David would exclusively stick to said playlist. Unfortunately, this was not the case. There wasn't anything necessarily wrong with what was played - it was the usual party anthems - but I had wanted to avoid the typical stuff. I was busy talking to so many people that I had to ask some family members to go up and request songs from the playlist that I made. It was frustrating having to involve other people just to get what we wanted. We were also disappointed to hear an artist from our "never play" list as one of the first songs. While they're extremely popular, we have reasons for strongly disliking them, which I won't get into here. There was also another artist that was played towards the end of the night that I'm not a fan of. I asked my now-husband to ask David to change the song, to which he replied, "Well, they weren't on your 'never play' list." I never intended to micromanage, but during the stresses of wedding planning, it's not exactly easy to think of every music artist we don't like. I should note that most of my "must play" songs were played, and that I probably could have communicated my expectations about the music better. I will fully admit that I'm a Type A personality who likes things a particular way. Fortunately, my guests didn't realize what was going on, and they all had fun - I'm still receiving great feedback about the day. But I do feel like there was an assumption that he knew my family and friends' music taste better than I did, and that bothered us. Looking back, I wish I had seen signs that we probably weren't the best fit with David, as my husband and I felt overruled as clients, but we genuinely didn't see this coming until the wedding was actually happening. Ultimately, it was a successful event, and my guests were happy - only my closest friends and family members were aware of what was happening. I would still be willing to recommend David's services but would caution that expectations need to be aligned upfront. If you're flexible with music on the fly, then I don't anticipate there being any issues. read more

I wish I could leave David more than 5 stars!!!! Absolutely incredible experience with David as our wedding DJ! From the consultation to the last song of the night, he more than exceeded all our expectations and truly made our wedding day unforgettable and relaxing for us. Davis is professional, organized, and attentive to every detail. He took the time to understand our music preferences beforehand and provided a template which also served as a timeline for us to figure out what we need since we didn't have a wedding planner. (A 2 for 1!!) David played the perfect playlist that kept everyone on the dance floor all night long. His experience really shows since he knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the energy high the whole night! We made a few changes during the day and David accommodated quickly, seamlessly, didn't skip a beat. He also served as an exceptional MC, guiding the flow of the evening with charm and enthusiasm, making sure everything ran smoothly, from the ceremony to the reception, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment of our special day. It was nerve wracking to pick a DJ, since it's not something you can really "test" before your big day and is really such an essential part of the night. Really... look no further you'll be so happy picking David!! You'll thank me later!! Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our wedding. David went above and beyond to make our day perfect, and we are forever grateful. If you're looking for a talented, professional, and personable and funny DJ.. David is your guy!! read more

David was absolutely amazing! The planning process was smooth and he made us feel at ease the whole way. We have zero complaints and all our guests commented on how great he was! Definitely highly recommend!!! read more

David was the best DJ (and officiant) we could've asked for. Choosing a DJ can be very daunting and stressful since you don't really get to listen to their mixtape or anything beforehand. You can watch a few clips here and there on their social medias, but you really are just booking a DJ on a hope and a prayer. David did a GREAT job. He really knows how to read the crowd. He was very communicative, professional, and affordable. He takes into consideration your "must play" and "must not play" songs, while also getting a feel for what the crowd wants. He kept everyone on the dance floor and was able to hype up the crowd. A great choice for a DJ! read more

David was absolutely amazing. To be quite frank, he was the winning choice for the day. David is charming and fun; above these talents that you'd hope to find from a DJ, you also get extreme organization and helpful coordination for the day of. David was organized, fun and provided so much structure. We went into our wedding planning with the hopes of a whimsical dinner vibe; David listened to our requests while stringing together a ton of great songs. The overall flow of the night was amazing and the vibe and feel was fun and warm. All of which could not have happened without David. David was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was incredibly professional through every step of the process. In addition to promptly replying to all of our questions (even through the holidays) and politely nudging us along in our decision making, he also helped to provide our quickly assembled wedding with a degree of structure and formality that would have been missing without him. David was careful to make sure that the vibe of our party was our own but also gave us suggestions and guided us as we needed to make sure that our wedding was as much fun for our guests as it was for us. David's involvement really made our special day that much more amazing. read more

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with David for our wedding back in August. Like many, we had to postpone our celebration due to Covid, so we had high expectations for our day, and David helped us immensely in seeing those expectations through. One of the main things we wanted when we began to plan was a DJ who wouldn't simply play music and maybe say a thing here or there, but someone who would create an atmosphere of fun and entertainment that would keep the party going until the very last song. David was amazing to work with and made us feel so supported in making our day exactly how we envisioned it. The song choice was spot-on and kept everyone on the dance floor, and his natural charisma made him the perfect emcee to keep the party going the entire night. We cannot recommend David enough! He will do everything in his power to make your day the best it can be, and he will make your event one that you and your guests will never forget. Thank you, David! read more

WHERE TO BEGIN?! if you are planning an event and have "finding a DJ" on your checklist, you just found him. we were lucky enough to have David referred to us by friends who just got to see him at a wedding. As we told more people about him, THEY told us they had seen him at a wedding and how he was the best DJ they had ever seen. We couldn't wait to witness it for ourselves. David was even more than what we could have dreamed of. He coordinated a Zoom call with us months before the wedding to go over every single dream, thought, idea, song, and family member. He gave us ideas when we were stuck & he even gave us a Google drive with templates he made to make the night even more organized. with everything we had on our plate, it was so nice to know that this was checked off months before our day and we didn't even have to think about it. Now to the day of. When we heard he was there setting up, we didn't have to worry about a thing. He is such a professional. He gave my sister (a first time officiant) a microphone after she walked down the aisle as a bridesmaid and told her the mic will be on he's just pausing it til after I finished walking so she didn't have to be stressed. (WHO EVEN THINKS OF THAT?!) He directed all of our guests and brought the excitement before we all started walking down the aisle. FOR OUR RECEPTION!! The hype he not only gave the crowd but all of the bridal party for introductions and how he never missed a beat. He followed the schedule without making anyone realize there even was one. After dinner he somehow had the ENTIRE party on the dance floor (150 people). My husband and I were so excited that we whispered, "skip the other stuff we scheduled, we just want to dance!" because David had brought the vibes. The message got to him and he seamlessly kept the vibes going. The dance floor was NEVER empty. One of my favorite things about David - he can read a crowd. If people were swaying but not singing along, he quickly meshed in the next track. It was like magic how he knew what would get everyone singing. He played every song we asked him to. He made mashups for our garter toss and bouquet toss because we didnt know what to choose AND THEY WERE PERFECT. Every single bride and groom deserve to have someone who is going to put so much heart, passion, and hardwork into their day. That person is David. I could not recommend him more. & thankfully this won't be the last time I get to be on his dance floor because EVERY guest has asked for his information. Thank you David for being our dream DJ! read more

David Newton - THE BEST DJ THERE EVER WAS! - DJs Near Me

Working with David was a real pleasure. First off - there's the wonderful australian accent - and the charm that comes with it! Jokes aside - David helped make our Wedding a truly special event. About 3 months out from our wedding day we began with a planning call to discuss timeline, special songs, and talk Amanda and my musical tastes for the event. David followed up by phone and email to help us with some gentle guard rails. We really appreciated his help steering us. We did a follow up meeting 3 weeks out from wedding day and then one last meeting the week before wedding day to finalize timeline and song durations for things like processional and first dance. On the night of David expertly directed the flow of the party as both DJ and MC. We are truly grateful that David helped guide us on our wedding day. It was a pleasure to relax knowing he had the event covered and we could enjoy the day without worry. read more

I had the pleasure of working with David for my June 2022 wedding. After having canceled/postponed my wedding numerous times due to COVID I had high expectations for what I wanted my wedding to look like as far as aesthetic/goals/feel-- with the primary focus being on fun. Let me tell you-- David delivered. He was incredibly professional and obviously an expert in his craft. We had several meetings ahead of time so I knew exactly what to expect. David is thorough, passionate, and very professional. He made sure that all of my DJ needs (including the ones I did not even know about) were met. David is capable of making guests feel welcome and comfortable without overpowering or becoming the "star of the show" (something that is incredibly challenging to do as a professional DJ). In spite of some changes (and surprise speeches haha) David adjusted on the fly and was able to make transitions seamless. In addition, he reads the room exceptionally well and kept the dance floor going ALL. NIGHT. LONG. (and would have gone longer if the venue did not have a music curfew). In fact, a few engaged couples grabbed David's contact after the wedding (he was that good). I would HIGHLY recommend working with David for any event requiring a DJ. Here are some fun photos showing you the power of the dance floor :) read more

Seriously THE BEST DJ! We are so beyond happy we booked David for our Wedding Day. From the day we booked him to our wedding day, he was so great to work with. He had all the details of pre-ceremony, ceremony, and reception laid out for us, making it effortless for us to cover all our song picks! He listened to our picks for songs we knew we wanted had suggestions for areas we weren't sure what type of music we wanted. On the wedding night, our dance floor was packed for so long- people of all ages! David even got out on the dance floor to help teach us a couple dances and get the group going. It was so fun! I would 10/10 recommend David for anyone looking for a DJ to take your event to the next level! read more

Look no further, you have found your guy! We are so happy we picked David as our wedding DJ! From the beginning he was so helpful and responsive.

We had the best time dancing to our favorite music all night with our friends and family. Thank you David! read more

Where to begin? We engaged David to be the DJ at our daughter's wedding but he was so much more! David was recommended to us by our wedding planner but it was his website, clips showing him in action, and him talking so sincerely about the importance of tailoring the music and vibe for the couple. During the planning phase, he responded quickly, communication was great, and he worked closely with the bride and groom to guide them in creating their playlist. And they just loved working with him. David was so professional, organized, and knowledgeable in every aspect of the process. And the day of ... wow! He set the tone with our family and friends for the ceremony and provided the ceremony music, and music during cocktail hour. He then proceeded to emcee the reception, kept the evening rolling along so seamlessly with introductions, speeches, the first dance, the father/daughter dance, and cake-cutting... all while being charming and funny ... AND playing an amazing playlist of music matching the bride and grooms wishes ... the floor was full the entire night with dancing, the crowd singing along loudly to the music. What an amazingly fun and joy-filled evening. Nothing but thanks and appreciation for David. He was beyond our expectations and we couldn't be more happy about the entire experience. THE BEST! read more

David was our incredible DJ/Emcee for our wedding reception October 17! Not only did he keep the crowd dancing all night, he did a phenomenal job emceeing with his witty jokes and making sure everyone felt welcomed and kept having a blast! He listened to all of our music requests we provided him prior to the wedding! We are so grateful he did our wedding reception! He's a class act, extremely well versed on ALL music genres and super nice! He was an intricate part of our fabulous wedding reception and cannot thank him enough! Thank you David for helping make our day so special!!! We would highly recommend him for any event party wedding!!! You absolutely will not regret hiring him!!! read more

David is the absolute best. I highly recommend him for weddings, private events, and beyond. Super charming host/MC. Easy on the eyes!! Really good at mixing tracks seamlessly. He knows his stuff and what works. My wedding was amazing thanks to him. I was concerned that in LA people would be too busy talking about their careers to dance. I was wrong. And it was thanks to David. read more

David was the perfect DJ and MC for our wedding. He was thoughtful and really knew how to direct and heard people prior to dancing. He played exactly the music that we wanted and was mindful enough to reject some really horrible song requests from some guests. He even was able to keep people engaged during the dessert service and get everyone back to the dance floor with a big song! Really can't recommend him enough! read more

I saw David at a wedding we attended this Summer and booked him for my company holiday party the week after! We had SO MUCH FUN at the wedding that I knew he'd bring a fresh vibe to my company party! He read the crowd well, he made fast adjustments, he even got on the dance floor and did the Wobble. I love his energy, his professionalism and all that he brings to the event! I highly recommend David and wish him nothing but great success! PS- his accent is a total bonus! read more

I booked David for my wedding at the bel-air bay club. Hiring him was hands down the best decision we made while planning the wedding. He is extremely professional, reliable, and always responded to my emails immediately. Most importantly, he set the tone for our guests. He made it the most energetic and fun wedding. I've had so many people say it was the most fun wedding they've ever been to, and honestly, it's all thanks to David. He also knows how to handle guests when they run up and request to either take the mic and sing, or play a specific song. He makes sure that every second of the night is perfect, and is incredibly specific on what songs he plays at certain times of the night. If you book any other dj/mc for your wedding, you're making a mistake because this guy will make your wedding (or other event) more fun than you ever imagined. read more

We recently had our wedding which we hired both a band and had David DJ for the second half. The only thing we wish we did different was to hire David to DJ for the entire night. He is so well spoken and knows how to work a crowd. He really knows how to read the audience and play songs that will keep the party going all night. We had guests dancing on the dance floor and entire night. We will definitely hire David for all future party's. Cannot recommend enough. read more

David was by far the best officiant and DJ I could have ever imagined for my Wedding Day. Leading up to the Wedding he was so on top of everything and was always so polite even when I had a million questions. He put up with my date changes and last minute changes due to All the Covid stuff going on and was so flexible. He even got us up lights super last minute no problem. His paperwork is very professional and he makes sure he knows every detail to make your day perfect. After talking with him the week before the wedding I felt so much more relaxed and like a weight had been lifted because he just got me. He understood everything I wanted and he delivered no problem the day of. He was personable with my guests and by far one of the best decisions I made for my wedding day. Thanks David! read more

David Newton - DJs Near Me

David knows how to get the party started and how to keep it going! He did an awesome job deejaying our wedding, and numerous guests continue to rave about him!

Thank you so much David for helping me have the best (and by far the MOST FUN night) of my life! read more

Hire DAVID NEWTON- Quit looking for another DJ/emcee! Five stars is not enough for David Newton. I honestly would give more if I could. Working with David was such a great experience. We first contacted him in March of 2020- just As the pandemic began. We were planning our wedding for that summer but we had worries about how the pandemic would affect our event. David worked with us and was flexible about possibly having to move our date. Once we rescheduled our date he was really flexible about doing zoom calls with us even from across the country. One of the best things you get when you hire David is someone who really knows and understands weddings and how they flow. He walks you through every part of your event and where you may want or need music. He gives you everything that you need to keep yourself organized. We have not stopped getting compliments from our guests about our DJ. Every guest was out on the floor dancing the whole night- from our 1 year old niece to our 88 year grandfather. David was even flexible when we had a surprise mariachi band show up for a few songs. We could not have asked for a better DJ. Thank you for making our wedding an amazingly fun event and for making the planning process so smooth and simple! read more

David was AMAZING! We hired him for our wedding last weekend and he did not disappoint. He was funny, professional and obviously most importantly he had great taste in music.

Highly recommend him! read more

David is AMAZING! If You are thinking about hiring him, do it. He was professional and organized from our first interaction. He followed up exactly when he said he would and everything was delivered as promised (actually, probably better. ) I think that even on his worse day he would be better than most DJs I've heard. I got so many compliments on how great our wedding was an how they loved the music. I'd use him in a heartbeat for any parties we have in the future. Thank you David! read more
