DJs
This wedding dj and MC tier is based in Mill Valley, California and covers weddings across the state with two separate sound systems, one for the ceremony and one for the reception, and club style dance floor lighting included at no extra charge. Bookings run four to six hours for 10 to 400 guests.
The ceremony gets a system of its own
A wedding usually happens across more than one space, and the ceremony, the cocktail hour and the reception each need their own audio. This tier answers that with a secondary sound system dedicated to the ceremony space alongside the main reception rig, so processional music, readings and vows are handled with the same clear sound the dance floor gets later. Nothing is dismantled and carried while guests stand waiting, and there is no gap where the day goes quiet because a speaker is in transit. It suits a single room celebration and it suits a venue where the ceremony lawn and the reception hall are a walk apart.
Two microphones for the quiet parts
A wireless hands free lapel microphone covers the officiant or a speaker, and a wireless handheld covers toasts and announcements. Those are the moments where every word counts: an officiant, a reader and someone giving a toast can each be heard clearly without anything being passed between them.
Dance floor lighting at no extra charge
Club style dance floor lighting is included rather than quoted as an extra, and it brings color and motion to the room once dancing starts. Because it is bundled, the comparison against other quotes is not like for like unless you check whether their floor lighting is a separate line. Hosts who want to do more with the space can add wireless uplighting in over three hundred color options, and a modern digital photo booth with instant sharing and custom templates is available when booked alongside these dj services.

Mapping the cues
Planning begins with a detailed conversation about your timeline, your must play and do not play lists, and the key moments from the processional to the grand exit. Every cue is mapped, names and pronunciations are confirmed, and the team coordinates with your planner or venue so the ceremony audio, the introductions, the toasts and the dance sets all land on time. With dedicated ceremony sound already in place, the handoff from vows to celebration is a transition rather than a scramble, and live requests are welcome through the reception, always weighed against the do not play list.
Four to six hours, one team throughout
The window runs four to six hours and one team stays for all of it, from the first guest arrival to the final song. There is no handoff between vendors and no stretch where the music drops out because responsibility changed hands.
Where the range matters
The guest range runs 10 to 400, and what changes with size is the room rather than the approach: a bigger hall wants more attention to where the ceremony system sits, a smaller one wants the reception rig kept in proportion.
Travel and holding a date
The team is based in Mill Valley and travels for weddings and events across California, so the ceremony system, the reception rig and the microphones all arrive as one load in, which is the practical advantage of a mobile dj setup over piecing the day together. Couples comparing disc jockey services usually find ceremony sound is the line most often left out of a base quote. Share your date, your ceremony and reception locations and your guest count through the booking form on the listing. Peak season weekends fill quickly, so an early inquiry gives the widest choice of dates.
Booking terms, credentials and what the venue provides
A booking deposit reserves your date, and the balance is due before the event. Please provide access to the event space at least ninety minutes before guests arrive for setup and sound check, with time after the final song for breakdown. A standard power outlet within reach of the setup area is required, and for outdoor events please arrange covered placement and power, since the sound and lighting equipment must stay protected from rain, direct sun, and extreme heat. Travel within the local service area is included; events beyond that area may include a travel fee quoted in advance. Final song selections and timeline details are confirmed before the event, and reasonable day of changes are accommodated when possible. The operation carries general liability and equipment insurance, a business license and a music performance license.
