Hanif was highly recommended by our wedding planner, and we couldn't be happier that we decided to work with him! From our initial consultation to the night's last song, Hanif was professional, accommodating, and incredibly talented. He took the time to understand our musical preferences and the vibe we wanted for our wedding and absolutely nailed it! Hanif was perfect at setting the tone during each phase of the wedding and kept the dance floor packed all night long with a perfect mix of our favorite songs that he seamlessly blended together. We had a mix of older and younger people, so we were a little nervous about getting everyone on the dance floor, but Hanif did a great job of keeping everyone dancing and happy throughout the entire night. Beyond his DJ skills, Hanif was a true pleasure to work with. He was responsive, very accommodating of some last-minute changes, and genuinely invested in making our day unforgettable. We can't recommend him highly enough! read more

I don't know how we got so lucky with so many awesome people for vendors at our wedding but we did! And Hanif was just one of the many many people who made Mo and my wedding a day we'll never forget. Logistically Hanif was easy to work with and sent us a form to fill out with all our preferences after we had decided which package we wanted. He brought all the sound equipment necessary for the day of and the mics for our ceremony and reception. The dance floor though is where Hanif really shines!! He has some mad mad DJ skills and our guests had so much fun and gave so many compliments to what an amazing DJ Hanif is. Thanks Hanif!! You were the party MVP! read more

Loved the vibe DJ Hanif created for our wedding! Our list of requests was pretty standard and his remixes were super fresh!

DJ Hanif spun at our Google Sales Holiday Party and was great! it was a great mix of current and classic old school tunes. I'm thrilled that we found Hanif and whenever I need to source a DJ again - he's the one! Cheers! read more

In an often douche-ridden industry it's a fresh-as-a-summer's eve feeling to find that DJ with authenticity and big love. DJ Wondir is that guy. I've gotten to enjoy his skills at Pebble Beach Food & Wine, Mundaka and CRBC. I use to know an enlightened being who claims to have reached this state while DJ-ing. Wondir is the kind of guy who makes me actually believe this is possible. He creates a fantastic vibe-- spreading smiles and connecting friends & strangers in the universal language of music. His great smile doesn't hurt either. One reviewer mentioned "obscure music" as if it were a bad thing. Hey, anybody can play the radio's playlist... boring! The fact that he blends in lesser known songs is an indication that he takes his job seriously and has a real knowledge of music. That being said, he's accommodating to his client's taste so much so that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for a wedding. Maybe one summer's eve in the not too distant future he'll bring some freshness to my own wedding? read more

DJ Hanif Wondir - DJs Near Me

This guy is good at all the spins and wickys. Legend has it he once did a 3 hour set in Laos upside down! But on the real there's isn't a DJ as dedicated to his craft on the peninsula or anywhere near. He'll for sure play some great music and throw down that one song you didn't even know you wanted to hear. Looking for an event DJ look no further. Oh yeah and a good human. read more

DJ Hanif Wondir - Hanif had me all.... - DJs Near Me

DJ Hanif is def one of my favorite DJs. He has a great taste in music and always mixes seamlessly from one track to the next. He never ceases to get people dancing and enjoying themselves. He has all of my favorite old school classics but also always turns me on to great new music. His style is funky and hip and can appeal to many different tastes. I hear about some of my new favorites from him and will be dancing all night will him at the helm. I like him so much, I asked him to DJ my wedding all the way in NY. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone for a party, event or wedding. read more

Hanif Wondir is much more than a DJ... he is a talented artist in more ways that one. A designer of sorts... fine art, graphics - he can create posters, publications, logos and help with your advertising needs. He is also a part of Animal Farm and does solo work too but I know him best as my favorite local DJ. You can check him out every Thursday at Mundaka, a Spanish Wine & Tapas Bar in Carmel and downtown at CRBC (Cannery Row Brewing Company) on Saturdays. DJ Hanif Wondir's work is well known locally hence he is a go-to DJ for special occasions like weddings. But he is not your average wedding DJ... this man's got your basic stuff, soul, funk, old school and a whole lot more! read more

Hanif was an AWESOME DJ for our wedding at Monterey Museum of Art - La Mirada. We booked him pretty close to the wedding but he was so accommodating, met with us in person, gave us the best recommendations for our wedding after-party! We were pretty loose with what kind of music we wanted. We had some "must play" songs and "do not play" songs. We let him fill in the rest with a general guideline of the style of music we liked. He told us his plan to build up the energy for dancing. We got SO many compliments about the music at our wedding! Everyone loved the music and said DJ Hanif was AWESOME. How often do wedding guests actually talk to the DJ and become chummy?!? His transitions between songs were great, he mixed up the songs a bit so they were more energetic to dance to, and he was just cool. We did ask him to do some announcements etc and that was great. We are THRILLED with how our wedding turned our and couldn't have gotten a better DJ! read more

This guy consistently plays obscure music and blends the songs together terribly. In the recording industry, he would be called a 'train wreck'. Terrible. Absolutely terrible. You would do better to burn a CD at home and bring it in. read more

DJ Hanif Wondir never ceases to surprise and inspire me. I have listened to him spin at a variety of venues and his style is never predictable, it is fresh and creative. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to play at any type of party, club, wedding, food/ wine event, etc. Mr. Wondir is not just a DJ, he is an audio artist. read more

If you're stressing over which DJ to hire for your wedding/event, just hire Hanif, and stop worrying. Seriously. That's all you really need to know, but if you want details, read on... We recently had our wedding at an outdoor venue in Big Sur, and were a little concerned about guests not dancing since the venue wasn't a typical indoor location. We were also from out of state, so it was a little nerve-wracking hiring vendors without getting the chance to meet them in person first. Luckily, Hanif was recommended by our coordinator, so I didn't have to look far before I found him...and now I feel silly for being concerned at all. He was able to get (and keep) everyone on the dance floor all evening. Even my grandmother was out there! As he played the best mix of tunes, everyone kept asking where I had found this amazing DJ. He was so friendly, professional, and easy to work with. I had only communicated with him via email, and with pretty much no direction from us (aside from a song list that I sent him at the last minute when he was already in Big Sur with limited internet access - sorry Hanif!), he nailed it. We wanted a really laid back vibe to our wedding, and he was also able to casually keep the night moving with just a few announcements. Nothing cheesy or over-the-top. All this on the day of his birthday, too. Thanks again Hanif, for giving up the evening of your birthday to make our wedding so fantastic! read more

Beyond being a supremely talented artist, DJ, singer & rapper, Hanif Wondir, is an even more amazing person. I've had the pleasure of hearing him work events both big and small, and it's no wondir, that literally all of my friends have booked him for their weddings in the past. He's truly the kind of guy you want at your party, and is a pleasure to work with. Thank you Hanif for playing "obscure music" (that one star review is a joke), and for always being the life of the party! I don't yelp often...but when I do it's in support of people like this! read more

What can I say... A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!!! He made my wedding day complete. Not only did he play amazing music he was very respectful and kind to our guests. He exceeded my expectations on every level! He was on time, respectful, kind, and accommodating. I HIGHLY reccomend Hanif :) thank you for making our wedding that much more special and perfect!!!! read more

Hanif was our wedding DJ at La Mirada (the Montery Museum of Art) and was amazing. Gave us everything we asked for and had everyone out of their seats dancing. More than anything he was kind, accommodating, and told us we had nothing to worry about. He was right! Rest assured, even if you have minimal contact prior to your event, you will get what you asked for and more with Hanif! read more

DJ Hanif was our wedding DJ/emcee at Carmel Valley Ranch in March 2017, and he did an outstanding job! We actually fell pretty behind on finding a DJ amidst all the wedding planning, and stumbled upon his website around two months before our wedding date and luckily he was available. From our first interaction, Hanif was super chill, professional, but also really personable and easy to communicate with. He was very flexible in making time to chat with us, and even met up with us near our venue about two weeks prior just to go over details and get better acquainted. Hanif also had prior experiencing DJing at our venue, which made the entire process that much more seamless. He was familiar with all of the different locations of our events, what equipment or setup was needed for each area, and knew who to coordinate with on-site as needed, and also gave us great suggestions on how to best achieve what we wanted musically and sound-wise for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Additionally, our Matron of Honor had planned to do a surprise song/rap during her reception speech and managed to track down his contact information, and Hanif made time to chat and coordinate with her last minute the night before the big day. As far as the music goes, I'm going to be a little cheesy and say it was HYPE! We gave Hanif an overall playlist for the entire evening as a starting point, but told him to layer in and mix as he saw fit. The music was a hit! We love hip hop and throwback jams, and he mixed and transitioned everything so so smoothly. We even extended our reception an additional hour because we wanted to keep the party going, and Hanif was very cool about accomodating us. So many of our guests were raving about how impressed they were by our dj and music. After he played the last song of the night, our guests were shouting "one more song, one more song"! So we knew that was an excellent indication everyone had a great time and that we made the best choice for a DJ. Hanif obliged, by the way, and gave us one more memorable song to end the night. We also saw several of our guests giving their props to Hanif after the party ended as he was packing up. So happy to see that! We highly recommend Hanif for anyone who is looking for a stress-free, AMAZING event loaded with good beats. read more

Hanif Wondir is one of my favorite DJs. This guy knows how to get people on the dance floor and keep them there! Ive heard him play all kinds of music and blend a multitude of genres seamlessly. Honestly this ain't some kid pushin play on an itunes mix and twisting knobs all night. Hanif is a great DJ!!! Fair Rates too... read more

DJ Hanif played our big sur wedding at a private estate and I have to say he was absolutely one of the best investments of the wedding. Having someone to take care of the ceremony music (played perfectly, right on time for maximal effect) was a million times better than stressing about an i-pod. Additionally, he saw our general dancing playlist and was able to expand on it perfectly, playing music we didn't know we wanted but that fit in well. He was also friendly, easy to work with, and a complete professional. Could not recommend more highly. read more

Every time I get the pleasure of enjoying his DJ skills it is memorable, euphoric, and so much fun! Definitely fill your nightlife void with Wondir's addictive music & get ready to get down!!! read more

We were elated to have Hanif DJ our wedding reception in Carmel Valley! The music and his overall positive attitude made the party swing their hips til the last song. I really can't say enough good things... I have seen him in action at other venues like mundaka(which is always a treat), but this was the perfect blend of what everyone needed musically. From the little kids warming up the dancefloor to my Dad moving and grooving, Hanif put the rite mood to the rite place! Thanks so much! read more
