DJ Solstice 

5.0

Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,900

With many years of experience, our team of experts are trusted names in the wedding DJ business. Our DJs are great at reading the crowd & keeping the energy up on the dance floor with clean mixing and smooth transitions, while also knowing when to slow it down for those special moments or throw it back to some classics. Guests are blown away by the level of professionalism (and a good bit of fun) our team provides, with dedicated experts in lighting/sound design, photobooth, and MCing. With music catering to all generations, we excel in keeping the flow of the event and eliminating dead time, while PACKING that dance floor!

All the roses to this guy right here! My wife Rachael and I had our wedding at Aliso Viejo Wedgewood and DJ Solstice far exceeded my expectations and those of our guests! I spent excruciating days and hours combing the internet, listening to plenty of vlogs and samples from DJ after DJ, for anyone that can match the vibes my wife and I were seeking for our wedding and Matt absolutely delivered! He continued to work diligently with me as we worked through our vision for the wedding day and he was noting short of a consummate professional through the whole processes despite the obstacles, definitely worth every bit of time and budget we had set for him! Every single guest we had come up to us loved him from his transitions, to his control of the dance floor and vibes, and even his ability to MC was far above what we have experienced in other weddings! Not to mention all the lights, sounds, and CO2 cannons he brought out! Certainly at the grade and level he promised when we first met and more! We asked for an EDM Set and he gave us one way above anything we ever expected, and we've seen plenty! For a day we don't ever plan to replicate again in our lives, I'm glad my wife Rachael and I were able to share this day with Matt and his team and they have our highest recommendation we could give to anyone for ANY of your music genre needs! Matt, looking forward to seeing your future clips, gig logs, and your continued growth in the forseable future!

Where do we begin? My husband and I cannot thank the Love and Life Events team enough for helping make our dream wedding come true. In the beginning, I believed that I did not need a coordinator because I had already planned out most of the wedding. Boy was I wrong. YOU NEED A COORDINATOR. We were recommended to Love and Life Events team by our DJ and picking them had to be the best decision ever. We got assigned to Dalavy the most amazing coordinator ever. From the very beginning she was super open, honest, organized, and communicated very well. Because I had booked a lot of our vendors already we decided to go with day of coordination which means that Dal and her team would start helping around the 2 month mark. 2 months flew by and we finally had our meeting with Dal. She was so helpful and made me feel so comfortable and my husband liked her as well! Everytime we had a meeting with her I felt so at ease that everything was going to be done, and she always reminded us not to be stressed. She constantly checked on us up until our big day. She made me feel comfortable when we made so many changes to our timeline. She truly became like family. On our wedding day Dal was on it. She always beat everyone before they could ask her something and she truly made the day so much easier. My family cannot stop talking about how amazing she was. From setting up to taking down she was so organized it was so easy to find everything we needed. Our day could not have been as successful as it was without her and Kristy who is also apart of Love and Life Events. My husband and I are actually so sad that our time with Dal and this team is over. We would def recommend her and this team to all our upcoming friends who are getting married. Thank you Dal and Love and Life Events for everything!

We’re Tucker and Alyssa, the husband and wife duo behind Wyld Story. We specialize in storytelling that feels honest, effortless, and deeply you. We believe wedding photography should feel like hanging out with friends who just happen to have cameras. We’re here to document the real stuff: the belly laughs, the happy tears, the in-between moments that matter just as much as the big ones. No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just you, your people, and all the magic that unfolds when you’re fully present on your day. We offer soft direction just to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera.

Wyld Story was such an amazing option for our maternity shoot. Tucker and Alyssa were efficient, timely, and clear in their communication, which put us at ease throughout the process. Their thoughtful, detailed, and professional approach resulted in stunning photos that captured the sweetness of our love for each other and our baby girl. Couples shoots can sometimes feel awkward, but Wyld Story helped us feel relaxed and like ourselves (often getting a big belly laugh out of me). Alyssa worked with me to bring my vision to life, and Tucker's skills behind the camera made it all a reality. I highly recommend Wyld Story to capture any special moment.

Can't say enough positive things about our experience with Herbert from A Colored Mind. Picking the "right" photographer/videographer is definitely a personal decision and for us it came down to his creativity, professionalism, and understanding of our different cultures. We're kinda awkward and rarely take photos and videos of ourselves to share to others, let alone hire someone to do it. But he made the day so easy. He didn't get flustered or overwhelmed -- just a nice a balance which didn't ruin our ability to experience our day. I have dabbed in prosumer photography and videographer myself as a hobby, and let me tell you, he pays attentions to quality of the shot in terms of color/lighting/perspective. It's just beautiful. Very easy to work with in terms of edits. The shots are unreal. I encourage you to check out his web site and social media. Let his work speak for itself. Thank you Herbert for creating such an EPIC piece of our wedding day!

I don’t usually write reviews, but after working with Brandi, I felt it was important to share just how amazing she is. My wife and I would 1000% recommend Brandi to anyone looking to get married in the greater Orange County area! We came into the wedding planning process with just a rough idea of the theme we wanted, and Brandi helped us bring it to life in ways we couldn’t have imagined. From the very first meeting, it was clear that Brandi’s extensive experience in the wedding industry and her deep knowledge of the OC area would make her an invaluable partner. She worked tirelessly to help us make decisions, offering suggestions when we needed them, and helping us stick to our vision every step of the way. Her established relationships with local vendors were another huge asset. She connected us with fantastic photographers, florists, and even a DJ who perfectly matched our style and budget. It really felt like we had a team of experts working in our favor, thanks to her recommendations. Beyond her impressive organizational skills and vendor network, Brandi’s professionalism and passion for weddings really stood out.

From start to finish, Brandi made the planning process so much easier and, most importantly, stress-free. Thanks to her, our wedding day went off without a hitch. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better planner. If you want a planner who’s not just professional but also passionate, caring, and completely dedicated to making your day perfect, Brandi is the one to choose.

From the moment we started planning our wedding, my husband and I knew finding the right photographer would be one of the most important decisions we made. We were immediately drawn to Love & Latitudes after seeing their gorgeous, high-quality photos online. Diana, the lead photographer, was incredibly thorough, encouraging, and supportive throughout the entire process. She allowed me to fully enjoy our wedding day while still capturing all the special moments, like highlighting our beautiful floral arrangements and the natural scenery at our indoor/outdoor venue. Diana has an incredible eye for detail and truly knows how to make any wedding look incredible, even if you aren't having an elopement in an epic location. We are over the moon with the final photos and will treasure them forever. Love & Latitudes went above and beyond to make our day perfect, and we cannot recommend them highly enough!

Hi, I'm Petra. I'm a SoCal-based pianist specializing in weddings, upscale corporate events and private parties—whether there’s a piano on-site or not (I bring my own!). With a Doctorate in Piano Performance and years of live event experience, I create dynamic, custom medleys of pop hits, rock anthems, EDM melodies, and dance soundtracks that capture the perfect vibe for each celebration.

Petra was definitely a highlight of my wedding day. She performed during the religious ceremony and it couldn't have been more perfect. I definitely couldn't have dreamt of a more beautiful walk down the aisle Her talent is just mindblowing, and she is also very friendly and professional. She was completely accommodating in terms of the musical choices and it was nice having her at the rehearsal to make the necessary arrangements to the length of the music. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a musical intervention for an event, her amazing talent will not disappoint!
