Zach was an amazing DJ! He was very thorough and organized leading up to our wedding and helped us ensure our songs all flowed as we had a large variety of music that we wanted. He sang live for our first dance song which made the moment even more special for us. We had some schedule adjustments throughout the night and Zach made sure that the evening flowed well! He also picked up on the vibes of the dance floor so well to match the energy of our guests! His uplighting added the perfect elegant touch to our venue as there was not a lot of pre-existing lighting. Also, our wedding day of coordinator had a good time working with him as he is extremely responsive and prepared!

Zach was hands-down one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding. From start to finish, he was professional, organized, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. He absolutely nailed the vibe we wanted, from the ceremony to cocktail hour to a packed dance floor all night long. Zach read the room flawlessly and kept the energy exactly where it needed to be. The transitions were smooth, the music choices were on point, He was also an amazing MC confident, clear, and never over-the-top. Beyond the music, Zach was just an awesome person to work with. He was responsive, easygoing, and made the whole process stress-free. We trusted him completely, and he delivered beyond expectations. If you’re looking for a DJ who is talented, professional, and truly cares about your wedding, book Zach immediately. We couldn’t recommend him more! 🎶💃🕺🏼🤵🏼👰🏻‍♀️🤍 Thank you Zach. 💕 ~ MRS. PEÑA 💍
