Once I dug deeper, he had a ton of 5 star reviews on Yelp from working with other DJ companies. I was very selective with our DJ. Darion was always responsive, patient, understanding, and most importantly helpful. We had some tough restrictions which he quickly and seamlessly worked through to resolve. His energy and philosophy on the importance of a DJ/MC matched exactly what we wanted. It is clear that he loves his craft, listens well, and goes above and beyond for his clients. I know that our wedding day will run smoothly and be fun and memorable with him there. Planning a wedding can be tough and stressful. Save your time ladies! I'm sharing my positive booking experience so that other brides can know!

As a type A bride who was planning her wedding from across the country, working with John as my DJ…read morewas just what I needed to calm my nerves. 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!

We hired Monterey Bay Entertainment for our wedding and we loved working with Manny and his team!…read morePrior to our wedding we had several meetings with Manny where we discussed timelines, music choices and he made several great suggestions. Manny provided the microphones for our ceremony (on the groom and officiant), was the DJ for our reception, provided mic's for our Mariachi band and a mirror booth. They really know how to keep people on the dance floor! It truly was a pleasure to work with them and I highly recommend them for your next event !

We just wrote this as a referral for someone looking to hire Manny and his team but it is so true…read moreso I just wanted to cut and paste lol. "We loved working with them! We had a lot of specific little things we wanted to do for our wedding (lots of music cues, logistics for different points of the reception, etc.), and Emmanuel (Manny, as we called him) was very helpful. They have an online system that lets you put really specific instructions in, but even after we'd uploaded the songs we wanted, we were able to call Manny a day or two before the wedding and walk through some small changes, which everyone on the same page with what was in our head. They really made sure we felt like we could give them as much detail as possible, and it wouldn't overwhelm them - it would just make them better at accomplishing what we were looking for. But they were also REALLY good at improvising - we didn't always have a packed dance floor (due to lower attendance numbers than we expected), but the DJ would read the room and switch over to a few slow dances, and that got some more people dancing. And then once he felt there were a good number of people on their feet, he'd go back to the upbeat music we'd discussed. It was such a smart move, and a clear sign that they're really good at taking the temperature/vibe of your wedding and making it happen! Manny was our MC, and he brought a DJ and two women to run the photo booth. They were all excellent, and we got a lot of great compliments about the music and photos for the next several days."

I had DJ Joey dj my wedding and could not have been more disappointed…read more For starters I should have known to verify things after he tried to tell us there was no "clean" version of our grand entrance song and we may want to change it. I was pretty set on this song so I researched for myself and was able to find the clean version on 3 different platforms in about 60 seconds. Another thing is that I have never heard of a DJ who doesn't take requests... I guess we are supposed to know every song our guests are going to want to listen to beforehand. He was unable to take a request for a song that a lot of our guests wanted to hear. The biggest problem of the night was that he played the wrong song for my father daughter dance. We put the very title of the song and what version on the document we shared with him and even had a meeting to go over all of it. If there were ever any doubts he should have reached out to confirm he had the right song and clarify. I really hope this isn't a thing that has happened to a lot of couples he's DJ'd for because it absolutely ruined the moment. That was one of the moments I was looking forward to most because the song had a lot of meaning being that it was my stepfather I was dancing with. He seemed to be more worried about other things like asking us and all of our vendors if we would have an umbrella for him at ceremony even after we already told him we would take care of it. He also kept saying how he would be like "our second wedding planner" and tried to interject himself into things that did not pertain to him. He should probably focus more on making sure he does the DJ part right. Overall I was very disappointed with the experience and would not recommend him. He didn't even have the curtesy to apologize to me after my husband let him know he played the wrong song.

From our initial consultation to the night's last song, Hanif was professional, accommodating, and incredibly talented.

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.
