Description

A Bay Area Wedding DJ + MC Package That Sets the Tone

The Classic Package is a four-hour wedding DJ + Master of Ceremonies offering built for Bay Area couples who want energy, elegance, and a personal touch from the moment guests arrive at the reception. It is the right starting point for couples whose wedding centers on the reception's music, flow, and dance floor energy, delivered across Pleasanton, Livermore, Dublin, San Ramon, Danville, Fremont, Oakland, Berkeley, San Francisco, San Jose, Marin, and the Wine Country.

What Is Included

Up to four hours of professional wedding DJ service with dinner music covered as part of the package. Extended music library spanning Top 40, hip-hop and R&B, EDM, house, classic rock, country, Latin, and decade-by-decade throwbacks. Professional commercial-grade DJ equipment with backup gear on site for redundancy. Master of Ceremonies covering the grand entrance, first dance, parent dances, toasts, cake cutting, bouquet toss, garter toss, and any cultural traditions you want woven in. Pre-event planning consultation and an online planner so you can pick every song for every special moment. Formal attire from the DJ-MC at the wedding. Setup and breakdown handled by the DJ; arrival at least one hour before the ceremony or cocktail hour.

The Master of Ceremonies Difference

An open-format DJ-MC reads the crowd in real time and adapts the setlist to the energy in the room. Multilingual ceremonies and bilingual MC delivery are accommodated in English, Portuguese, or Spanish at no surcharge. The MC handles the order-of-events flow so the wedding coordinator, family, and bridal party know what is happening next and the night runs without dead air.

Music Planning + Guest Engagement

An online planning portal lets you build a do-not-play list, a must-play list, a custom playlist for cocktails, dinner, and dancing, and timing cues for the processional and recessional. Guest song requests are accepted in person at the DJ booth on the night; written request cards are also supported. Clean radio edits are available on request for family-friendly events.

The Crowd-Read

This is the difference between a wedding DJ who plays a static playlist and one who keeps your friends and family on the dance floor for the whole reception. Real-time reads of the dance floor, segueing between genres without breaking the energy, and engagement with the bridal party plus the parents-of-the-couple to keep momentum.
