Joey was recommended to us by our wedding venue the Sesnon House. We are so glad we went with him! He was fantastic and very in tune with what we needed when we needed it in regard to music and announcements. Joey is very thorough and flexible especially with us changing so much the day of the wedding. Our wedding had a range of interests but Joey took care of it all. I think he played every song we had requested. Our guest and us were dancing all the way up until we had to start leaving. Thanks again Joey!!

We spoke with Joey about our wedding and loved his vibe. It seemed like he was immediately on the same page as us. We decided to go with All Occasions, and had such a wonderful experience. Joey did a fantastic job both before and after the dance floor opened up. The ceremony sound was flawless as far as I (bride) could tell, and his timing was on point all night. He understood the vibe we were going for, and made great music choices for us. Once it was time to get out on the dance floor, he kept the party going until it was time to close down our venue! There were several people my husband was shocked to see out on the dance floor for a good portion of the night because they never cut loose like that. It was clear that Joey had a talent for gauging the crowd and keeping the energy up. My photographers commented that they hadn't seen people dance so long and so hard as a couple of our family members, and while a lot of that has to do with their stamina, a lot of that had to also do with the music choices Joey made.
In addition to Joey's music services, we also added on the photo booth to our package. That was also a huge hit with the guests, and we now have so many fun and crazy photos to enjoy and share with the family. I did several rounds in the booth myself, and even got a friend that NEVER takes photos to join me because of all the fun props they brought. Our attendant kept everything running smoothly so we could all enjoy it throughout the night. The package also included dance floor lights, which added a lot of energy and ambiance to the dance floor, as well as some amazing drama lighting to our photos!
Given our stellar experience with All Occasions, I would highly recommend their services if you are having a wedding or event in the area!

Joey was great! Super flexible with last-minute weather that derailed our outdoor dancing plans a bit. So thankful to him for helping make my birthday party such a success!

Joey was amazing for our wedding at Bargetto Winery on December 10th! Everyone was dancing the whole evening! Highly recommend Joey!

I want to thank Joey for a job well done. The music played was a great mix of songs for the bride and groom's generation and also for their parents' generation. I am the father of the bride, and I also want to thank you for the way you handled an unfortunate situation with one of the guests. I am sorry that occurred and was relieved I could get the man away from you and out of the venue before it got any worse. You handled it with poise and composure.

Many thanks for helping to make this such a special day for the bride and groom.

Huge Thanks to Joey for making our Wedding a smashing success. I'm still hearing people claim it was the best wedding they EVER been too. Joey was super easy to work with, played a fantastic set, and went the extra mile to make our event fabulous. Highly recommended!

Joey DJ’d our wedding at Hollins house in Santa Cruz. Just an easy going, down to earth, easy to work with guy who made us feel at ease that he would handle our special night. That’s exactly what happened. Highly recommend Joey’s services!

DJ Brian was awesome! He was extremely prompt in communicating via email, very honest and upfront about all pricing and policies, and definitely knew what he was doing through the whole process. He was able to put together a package for our wedding that included lighting and a photo booth as well as DJ/MC services at a very reasonable price. Throughout our wedding, Brian and his assistant kept everything running smoothly. Everyone loved the photobooth and the props. And, of course, he was a kickass DJ! Brian had everyone from the groomsmen to my grandma dancing the night away and having fun!
