Boy were we worrying for no reason! Nick is a true professional and has truly perfected his craft. I can't tell even begin to tell you what a great time our guests had! I'm not sure what magic Nick works, but he knows how to keep the party going! Along with taking care of all of our music and mc-ing needs, he also provided up-lighting which added a whole other cool element to the ambiance of our reception! You will never meet a more genuine and chill guy! We are forever grateful for Nick and and his DJ/Event services!

Nick DJ'd my sister's wedding and, in a few words: Everyone had such a great time!…read more As difficult as it was to plan a wedding during a pandemic, Nick made the process so easy and fuss free. He was so easy to communicate with in this remote setting. He responded with very thorough answers to any questions my sister and I had (and we had a lot!). My sister and her husband also chose several Japanese songs in their sets, so we weren't sure if it would be difficult for him to obtain high-quality audio of those selections. But he did it! And he made sure to verify with them that he found the right songs. On the wedding day, everything sounded great! He also provided mics for the ceremony and reception, and brought uplighting to add another level of ambience to the reception room. When the dancing began, he knew just what to play to keep the energy alive on the dance floor. Everyone - from our oldest to youngest guests - had a turn on the dance floor! Nick will be my top DJ choice for my next event. Thanks for everything, Nick! :) Here's a few words from the bride! - "I'm so glad we chose Nick to DJ our wedding. He did a fantastic job combining the J-pop, Pop and Oldie songs we requested and everything flowed so seamlessly. Not only that, he is so easy and fun to work with. I loved his fun personality. He really made the evening incredibly enjoyable and all my guests had nothing but good things to say about him. If I needed a DJ in the future, I would definitely ask him again."

I have had the pleasure of working with Joe, owner of DeBorba Events for the past 5 years as I am…read morethe owner of Events by Rebecca! I've been a wedding planner even longer than that. Quite frankly it was a no brainer to hire him for my very own wedding this January. Joe consistently blows me away wedding after wedding... successfully DJing an event is SOOOOO much more than running a playlist. It's guiding the client in the planning process making sure they don't miss a single moment to have a special song play - joe did this beyond my expectation. Even as a professional I forgot so many things that he was totally on top of!! It's the quality of the sound system., mics, lighting, etc. Joe has top notch everything - zero glitches. It's being a great MC! Yep - your DJ is the guy who navigates your guests through the entirety of the event. Trust me when I say a bad MC can ruin your event. Joe is the best of the best! Right amount of enthusiasm, never makes it about it, and reads the room!! He's fantastic. It's most importantly knowing the right song to play and WHEN to play it. Like I mentioned in the beginning - it's SO much more than running a playlist. Joe flawless reads the room and vibe and plays the perfect next jam to please the crowd and keep the party going. I distinctly remember almost being frustrated (LOL) that I couldn't leave on "the next song" to run to the bathroom because he kept playing the BEST SONGS and I couldn't tear myself off the dance floor and risk missing it!!! If you want a fully sweaty, hair ruined, dance your A** off time - Joe is the MAN!!! I can't say enough good things about this man and his company. He's 100% worth the investment and then some. Please oh please don't risk your entire vibe, dance party, guest experience for a craigslist bargain or an iPod playlist. PLEASE. You will regret it. OH! And opt to upgrade by adding the dry sparklers - literally the most epic thing of all time. No joke!!! (Attached photo courtest of LUMI Photography)

Booking DJ Joe DeBorba was one of the best decisions we made during our wedding planing process…read more Organized, charming and professional - Joe kept our reception right on schedule. He asked for all the details in advance, everything from our timeline, what to play, what not to play and details on the speeches. Joe served as a wonderful emcee as well, introducing our toasts, announcing cake cutting and our important dances and finally kicking off the best dance party when he opened up the dance floor. My friends are still talking about the boogie wonderland that was my reception. We are huge fans of DJ Joe and his work! We cannot recommend Joe and his services enough. Hire him and your wedding, party, or event will go off without a hitch.

We highly recommend hiring Thomas as your wedding DJ -- he's the perfect blend of professional and…read morepassionate. From the very beginning, Thomas was incredibly collaborative. He helped us shape our musical vision while offering thoughtful suggestions and music samples that we could accept or decline. We felt so supported and confident in his ability to bring the vibe we wanted to life. Thomas executed everything flawlessly. The ceremony audio was seamless, and the music paired with our reception slideshow (right before our grand entrance) sounded amazing. He truly elevated the atmosphere. Once the dance floor opened, it never emptied. It didn't even thin. His lighting setup made it feel like a club -- but filled with all our favorite people. Even family members who NEVER dance were out there having the time of their lives. Friends who are either DJs or work in the wedding industry had high praises for Thomas. Even some friends who got married before us wished they hired Thomas! The only hiccup was the music cutting out briefly during the very last song -- but honestly, it was such a minor blip in an otherwise incredible and memorable night. Thomas absolutely nailed it and helped make our celebration unforgettable. We're so grateful, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Thomas showed up right on time, set up quickly and professionally, and was completely prepared before our first guests even arrived. That attention to detail gave us so much peace of mind. What impressed me most was how well Thomas read the crowd and tailored the music to exactly what we had envisioned. We had asked for a specific genre and vibe, and he nailed it--every song felt perfectly chosen for the atmosphere and the people in the room. Guests kept commenting on how great the music was and how smoothly the event flowed. Working with Thomas was stress-free, fun, and rewarding. He's reliable, talented, and clearly takes pride in his work. I'd recommend him in a heartbeat for any event, big or small.

We had the pleasure of working with Rich from SJ's, and he was an absolute game changer for our…read morewedding! From start to finish, he brought incredible energy, a fun vibe, and kept the dance floor packed all night. His personality is infectious - friendly, engaging, and professional. He made sure everything went exactly how we envisioned, with his own awesome touch to keep things lively. One of the best things about Rich was how interactive he was with our guests. He struck the perfect balance of keeping the party going while making sure everyone felt included. His creative ideas and suggestions took the night to the next level, and he really knew how to maintain the momentum. During our consultation, Rich asked us what we wanted to achieve for our wedding day. We told him we wanted everyone to leave saying it was the best and most fun wedding they'd ever attended. Well, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Everyone raved and continues to rave about our wedding. The energy was nonstop from start to finish, and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding day unforgettable. If you want a DJ who knows how to bring the fun, keep the energy high, and ensure everything goes off without a hitch, book SJ's! We're so grateful for everything Rich did to make our wedding day incredible!

One of the things I was set on was the dance on clouds, however, our venue was in an outdoor patio and weather/wind was unpredictable. Mike did a test run for us and even sent us videos of what the projected outcomes could be like to ensure we were fully informed the weather may affect our desired outcome. We took the (informed) chance and on the day of the wedding everything exceeded our expectations! He kept our ceremony and reception lively and the clouds/cold sparks were stunning! Highly recommend Mike from SJ's!
