Louis Pettinelli Entertainment was an absolute dream to work with. I thought that a live band for our wedding would be out of our reach, but LPE was so easy to work with and what an incredible value! Our band, LPE Snapshot was incredible and our ceremony musicians were amazing too! The vocalists were high energy and kept the whole event moving. They were great Emcess and they even added some special non-traditional reception activities for us. They were super flexible and played all the songs we asked for- even some very “niche” tracks we asked for during the ceremony. So many of my guests said the band was their favorite part of the reception. I highly recommend LPE entertainment! (I am also a musician myself so I’m very picky!)

I used this company for my dj, Photo Booth and cold sparklers and lighting for my wedding at Bal Hai and I was 10/10 happy with their services! I paid extra to have an attendant stay so I could use the cold sparklers multiple times which was great! Him and the photo booth attendant were both very kind and easy to work with. DJ Erin was fantastic! I had some technical issues with the website not allowing me to add my songs online but after our phone calls I felt like I could trust him and was able to share my Spotify playlist to him which made my life so much earlier and less stressful. He edited a song for me perfectly for my walk down the aisle and was always quick to respond ahead of the wedding if I had a question. I very much would trust this company in the future and I wouldn’t change one tiny thing about my wedding! A dj can make or break a party and he made mine! I got lots of compliments about the music selection and variety of songs and genres that were played. Also Nicole made my planning process very easy and was always quick to respond to questions via email as well.

I've been djing since I was 15 years old. I had a fascination for parties and events at an early age. I tagged along with my brother who dj'd at house parties back in the early 80's. I was hooked after seeing how much joy the music brought out in the crowd. I started buying my own 12" records, and it evolved into doing my own gigs: house parties, jr. high & high school dances, colleges, raves, underground parties, night clubs, weddings, corporate events, and so on. I started my DJ business in 1987, and have been honing my craft now for 3 decades. Thirty plus years later, I continue to love what I do. Now let's get the party started.

Boy did Dennis deliver! He was playing hit after hit of all the bangers, and the only reason we stopped dancing was due to timing and we had to cut the music. He listened to our very specific song requests, great communication/professionalism throughout, and just the absolute best! Marlon is a vibe!! He also stepped in to make sure everything was going smoothly. We truly appreciate all of his efforts throughout the night to keep things on schedule. He was also taking pictures throughout the night which we loved!! My family and friends could not stop saying how wonderful he was. Having a wedding with this dynamic duo is a MUST!

As a multi-award-winning DJ featured in national publications, I bring more than music… I bring an atmosphere. From the moment your guests arrive to the last song of the night, everything feels intentional, seamless, and unforgettable. My mixes are live, my MC work is polished, and my goal is simple: to make your wedding the one everyone talks about long after the lights come up.

DJ Cam is an absolutely phenom DJ, MC hype man, and unbelivably talented in his craft! He makes it really easy to work with him and his team. He's incredibly fun, and pays close attention to every detail to make the night a success! Vibes, Communication, and peace of mind came with choosing Cam as our DJ and you will not be disappointed! Cameron took the time to go through each individual step, song, timing, and worked closely with our venue and coordinator (which he already knew personally) to be on top of everything and make sure the night was a success.

Hey there, I'm DJ Preston! My DJ journey began at 15, and it's been an incredible ride ever since. Starting in 1995, I spun tracks for school dances, bars, and clubs, then moved into radio, spending 8 years on air. I've performed at award shows, corporate events, weddings, and traveled the country for nightclub gigs, even sharing stages with big-name artists. Recently, I was honored as one of the best wedding DJs in San Diego by California Wedding Day in 2024. I love creating unforgettable atmospheres where everyone can dance and have an amazing time.

We interviewed several DJ's before settling on DJ Preston for our wedding at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We were impressed with Preston's responses to our interview, we could tell he cared about attention to detail and enjoyed his craft. On the day of the wedding Preston was an absolute professional. The music was the perfect volume from pre-ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner to dancing. The audio for all speeches was perfect as well. I heard from several of our guests "the DJ was great!" so what else is there to say? I didn't have much banter with Preston before or after the wedding, but if you're looking for a professional who pays attention to the details and delivers a great set, then Preston is your guy! He did a great job reading the vibe for our dollar dance and facilitating an amazing night. Thanks Preston!!

Durell is one of a kind! The man has a voice that will take your event from great, to EPIC. He makes everyone stop in their tracks and listen to the song he's playing simply because it's so good. I've had the privledge of working with Durell on a few events and I'm always amazed at how professional he is, and how talented he is. He's done cocktail hour (piano & singing) as well as playing throughout dinner... its unreal how talented he is. REALLY COOL - I've seen him do live renditions of whatever the couple chooses for their first dance and/or parent dances and he even has the ability to change a few words to make them unique or more applicable to the couple's love story. Can't reccomend this guy enough!

For over 25 years, I’ve been turning music into memories. From luxury brand events with Sephora, Macy’s and H&M to unforgettable intimate gatherings, I’ve performed at every type of event there is—but nothing compares to my favorite: the beauty of a wedding day. My journey began as a kid mesmerized by rhythm, inspired by how music could move people’s hearts. That passion has only deepened with time. Today, I bring that same childlike wonder and hard-earned mastery to every couple’s love story. For me, DJing isn’t just sound—it’s emotion, connection, and the art of capturing the heartbeat of the crowd that will be remembered forever.

We’re both huge music people, so finding the right DJ was a big deal for us. We didn’t want someone who’d just press play — we wanted a real vibe. Brendan completely got it. He mixed everything so seamlessly it felt like a live concert. The transitions, the drops, even the slower moments — it all felt intentional. Before, I worried the energy would dip after dinner. Instead, it just kept building. People were sweating, laughing, losing their minds in the best way.

Cam Clements is a dynamic saxophonist that's sure to leave you and your guests speechless! An award winning saxophonist that's toured across the U.S., Cam is a top rated and highly sought after performer. Cam performs a wide array of music that can be tailored to any occasion - jazz classics, Top 40s from any decade, pop, soul, country, and more. Any song requests are welcome!

We booked Cameron as the saxophonist for our wedding, and he was a true professional who really helped to making our wedding day unforgettable. We were dealing with some budget restraints, and to be honest we were a little apprehensive about how only one musician was going to sound. Now that it’s all over, I can comfortably say that we were absolutely foolish to have ever worried about it; when Cameron showed up, he may as well have brought an entire band with him, because we couldn’t tell the difference! He was always quick to communicate with us whether by email, text, or phone call, and whenever he did he was prompt, succinct, courteous, and thoroughly responsive to our every request. The quality of his work was simply stupendous; he was the best saxophone player I’ve ever heard, and he took pretty much all our requests. Cameron honestly knew how the day was supposed to go better than we did, and his consummate professionalism gave us the mental and emotional bandwidth to focus on everything else we had to worry about! He told us he used to play in the navy band, and it really showed; he showed up early, and followed every one of our “orders” to a tee. He even took a last second request! He had never even heard the song before, but we played it for him and in a couple of minutes he was able to play it perfectly! We cannot recommend him enough and are so grateful for his invaluable contribution to our special day.

Without us even asking, he brought extra microphones to ensure great sound quality took the time to add comparable songs to our music selections, he really catered to bringing the life to the party and went above and beyond what we expected. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ to make our wedding so memorable and fun for all our guests. Highly recommend Fotakis!

Every wedding & event is custom made with your input. You speak directly with the owner of the business. The DJ that you do your event planning with is the same DJ that shows up for your event. As a woman I know what a wedding should feel like. Even if you don't choose me I want all your hopes and dreams to come true. Whether you want an entertainer to motivate your guests or someone that's more laid back, I am the DJ can suit your needs. I have FUN at a reasonable price. I do not use subcontractors, you get personal service every time.

We could not have asked for a better Wedding DJ than Party Pam. From our first meeting, she was incredibly communicative, understanding of our goals, and flexible. On the day of, she made sure the music was perfect for our ceremony, MC'ed our speeches and cocktail hour to keep us on schedule, and kept the dance floor moving all night. We have heard so many great things from our guests about how much they enjoyed the dance floor! She is also incredibly kind and she helped us get excited and feel supported on our wedding day. Thanks, Pam! :)

I have over 15 years of experience working in the music industry. As a DJ and sound engineer as well as a stage and lighting designer, I has developed the skills over the years to transform any event into an unforgettable experience. His creative vision combined with his passion and dedication to providing top-quality DJ and entertainment services has led to the building and expanding of his team at Dance N Groove DJs. From hosted parties at nightclubs, raves, and festivals, to corporate events, fundraisers, school dances, and weddings, I have done it all. His commitment to excellence is evident. He is always there for his clients.

Heath and his team are so awesome to work with! I work on the BTS (behind the scenes) at a hotel venue, so communication is key. The whole team is professional, friendly and easy to put an event with. I've worked with them numerous times throughout the past three years I've been a Catering Manager, and each time they always exceed our clients' expectations. You can't go wrong with Dance N Groove -- they're sure to keep you dancing and having fun all night long, even if you are that shy type!
