He is relaxed, abundantly positive, and energetic. He emceed a recent wedding reception at Live Oak UU Congregation in Goleta with professionalism and a good read on the newlyweds and their guests, keeping a well-paced rhythm of reception activities and getting the guests on the dance floor and in a celebratory mood!

Four of my freind and I attended - we went all out- we created our own costumes; the two friends from Holland, just back from sailing in Fijian islands, won the best costume prize. The music was just fantastic classic dancing rock and roll with a few Halloween themed songs thrown in, everyone was in costume, and we danced our arses off! The venue was superb as well - Anchor Rose at the Harbor, with a large outside deck to cool off between dancing, and very reasonable prices! We ate and drank and danced to great music. Thank you Scott Topper!

I can't say enough good things about DJ Fluffy and the Ventura DJs crew! Alex (aka DJ Fluffy) was a…read morejoy to work with - so friendly, thoughtful, and focused on making sure the wedding was everything we wanted. I had a very specific vision and didn't make things easy for him, and he always made me feel heard and validated and was a great partner in the planning process. He did everything he could to make my vision a reality, and it turned out perfect!! And maybe most exciting of all, he delivered all of that great service on a fantastic budget that was so much more affordable than the other Santa Barbara DJs we got quotes from. The value for the money we got was incredible and we are so so happy we went with Ventura DJs!! The sound quality was always excellent and he was right on time and had everything tested and ready to go on schedule, so we never had to worry about it. The ceremony music and mic volume were perfect and the transitions were flawless. I never even thought about it, which is how it should be. I've been to too many weddings with sound issues during the ceremony so you can't hear the vows or there is feedback etc, and I was thankful we didn't have any issues at all. During the reception, he was great with announcements such as our grand entrance and getting the dance floor hyped up and filled with guests. He was natural on the mic and made things fun. I made most of my own playlists, as I was very particular about the music I wanted, and he was happy to accommodate me while using his expertise to mix and adjust the order to make sure the songs flowed and the energy was always great. I wanted it to be an epic dance floor like a 2010 dance club haha, and he was so helpful and had some incredible laser lights to go with the fog machine we brought to make it the perfect vibe. The lasers + fog machine combo was a real winner and made the pictures look so epic - highly recommend. He also has cold sparks that we decided to add on a whim and they were SO AWESOME! Can't recommend those enough - it made our pictures extra special and guests were amazed, and he had perfect timing to hit all the high moments. (no fire concern, the sparks are literally cold to the touch) And finally, we also used his photo booth, which was fantastic with great background options and the picture quality and hilarious variety of props were perfect. We LOVE looking over our digital gallery in addition to the printed strips. So long story short - doing with DJ Fluffy and Ventura DJs was the best decision we ever made for our wedding and if I could give him more than 5 starts I would!

Josh exceeded all of our expectations. Not only was he professional, but also extremely kind-hearted and communicative. He hopped on a phone call with us and our wedding planner to make sure we were all on the same page. He suggested we send him a few songs for the cocktail hour, dinner, and reception so he could build off that playlist. His mixes all throughout our day were just what we wanted. After, he sent us a copy of the playlist song titles, so we could always have them to remember our special day. Everyone, no matter what age, raved about his music selection and ability to mix songs together. We could not recommend Josh more! Thank you for making our wedding day one we will never forget! We appreciate you, Katie and Ben

DJ Zeke is personable and friendly, cheerful and fun! He brings great energy to a wedding reception without being overbearing or trying to "steal the show." His services were flawless and we are thrilled that he was part of our wedding day. We recommend him without question or hesitation -- he's truly the best of the best!
