You made the party. The tunes, your spirit, that smile, you getting into it. What you've lived your whole life and what you love about music—which is the same as us—and what we all feel in the bone. It was just exquisite.

Tommy understood exactly what I was after, and he did an absolutely fantastic job.  He kept the dance floor hopping, and everyone loved the songs.

On top of everything, Tommy is one of the nicest guys you can imagine, and he was a real pleasure to work with.  He made the whole process as easy as possible, and was extremely professional.

thanks for stopping by

I started DJing in 2015 and quickly became an events expert by working with some of the best DJ management companies in SoCal. Since 2018, I've worked independently to become a unique, multifaceted wedding professional. Whatever event you're planning, you'll know you're in good hands because I take a collaborative approach to guide you through making your song selections.

​Think of it this way: if your wedding will be six hours long, music will play in some form or another for five of every six minutes. I take care and work with you to create cohesive lists of memorable songs that make sense for each portion of the day and night. We’ll talk about the music you love from our very first meeting all the way through the precious final weeks before you say “I do.”

I keep a relatively low profile for someone in this line of work, so I’m humbled that you’ve read these words. I also do lighting and play well with live musicians.

​Have a look around. For more reviews and current rates, check me out on The Knot.

Cheers,
DJ Tommy

at your wedding

Because weddings are so personal, I want to get to know you, hear about your family and friends, and get a feel for the vibe you're cultivating for your reception and dance floor. I want to know what memories you're hoping to keep from your big day so I can gently guide the night in that direction and let things flow naturally from there.
 
I'm easygoing and approachable, calm and collected, and always thinking ahead. My ease with your other vendors, family and friends helps create a smooth, low-pressure day where people can let loose.

I collaborate with your venue to ensure that the timeline runs smoothly, even if that means adapting on the fly. (Weddings have a lot of moving parts and it happens.)

All of this is so that the part of your vision you've trusted me with comes to life. And when it’s time to dance, I keep an eye out so that I don’t play your favorite song while you’re at the bar or saying goodnight to your grandparents.
[He] was charming and professional to everyone, and kept the multigenerational crowd dancing for hours. He made sure to let everyone involved know when the parent dances and wedding party speeches were about to begin, so no one would be taking an ill-timed bathroom break right when they were needed. He seamlessly blended our song requests with his own additions, and people are still asking us for the playlist!

Having an empty dance floor was one of my top bridal fears, and with Tommy I had nothing to worry about. He was one of the BEST choices we made for our wedding. Our dance floor was packed for every single song from the moment it opened to the last dance. Everyone from our younger siblings (college age) to parents and grandparents were out of their seats.

Tommy also made planning the wedding from SF easy. It was like talking to a friend and we could just give our general ideas and know it was in good hands. I can’t recommend him highly enough – one of the best decisions we made with our wedding. It was a beautiful and wonderful party!

For me, DJing your wedding is more than showing up and playing music. I’m thorough leading up to the day and mindful throughout, doing my very best to create an environment where everyone feels at ease and has a great time.

My hope is that you'll spend the night on the dance floor hugging all your favorite people and singing your heart out. ​If you want a soundtrack for all that--
​Tommy was so great, and almost two months later I am still getting comments from friends and family saying how fun and great the DJ was.  From the moment we met Tommy we knew we made the right choice! The only down side about having Tommy as your DJ is that he can't be a wedding guest!
