DJ Daniel was seriously amazing! We were super worried about finding a DJ who could handle our outdoor ceremony surrounded by hills and pine trees, a third of a mile from the lodge’s electricity. We are SO glad we booked the AZBestDJ Team! DJ Daniel arrived early with a battery powered ceremony sound system, so no loud, smelly generator! He made everything flow perfectly, from our grand entrance to my grandpa blessing the meal, and then totally rocked the dance floor with our 20 must play songs and fun guest requests. From booking to the last dance, the whole experience was easy, fun, and amazing! We couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!

Two Thumbs up from me and my bride! Daniel DJ'd our big day at Corte Bella Country Club in Sun City West AZ where we just relocated from Midwest. This was our 2nd marriage and as per our request he did lots of classic 70s 80s but also played modern music so our grandkids could dance! We had a 50 guest wedding on a Sunday midday and all were smiles as we did 1pm ceremony on golf course and entire wedding was over before sundown! thx DJ Daniel

Our friends dubbed him "DJ No Skips" because he read the crowd perfectly and played all the right songs to keep everyone moving. With big smiles and great music, DJ Daniel truly made our special day even more memorable. I can't emphasize enough how great it was to have him there - he was a huge part of making our wedding celebration a hit!

Kylie & Mitch, DJ Daniel here (owner and and senior Dj here at azbestdj.com). Huge thanks ...
for having my DJ Company DJ/MC your big day on August 16, 2025! My team and I were proud to travel a few hours to your "in the pine trees and mountains" destination wedding. Loved setting up in the aspens for your ceremony by the "grassy meadow" outside. Also—great music your dog in the "wedding party" coming into music lineup made it extra special.
The indoor dinner dance was a blast. Thanks for sending over an hour of of your "favorite dance floor music" about a month before the wedding! Made my job so fun! Kylie and Mitch, your music was great and a huge part of the "dance floor no skips' and then I reordered "your must plays" on my own DJ software, filled in more great music DJ tracks from the same artists/genres and vibe you already picked, and kept the floor packed. I’ll wear the “DJ No Skips” nickname proudly.
Congrats again on an unforgettable wedding—our best "Destination wedding" that my company has been proud to DJ since we started "DJing" Weddings in 2015. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness!

DJ Inessa was absolutely wonderful! From the beginning, she was incredibly sweet, patient, and genuinely invested in making our wedding feel like us.
What impressed me most was...
how much she helped beyond simply being our DJ. She helped coordinate the flow of the reception, communicated with us throughout the process, kept track of important details, and helped make sure everything transitioned smoothly. When you’re getting married, there are a hundred tiny things happening at once, and having someone who notices those details before you even have to ask is incredibly valuable.
Our wedding brought together two culturally different families, and she did such a beautiful job making everyone feel included. The music and atmosphere never felt like one side of the family was being asked to fit into the other. It felt like one celebration created specifically for us.
One of our favorite moments was the flower girl dance. Our flower girls absolutely loved it! Seeing how excited and happy they were out there dancing was such a sweet part of the night, and it gave them their own special moment that they’ll remember. Their smiles said everything.
Another moment that really showed the kind of person Inessa is was when she actually came out and danced in a circle with the little kids. She wasn’t standing behind the DJ booth simply watching everyone have fun. She got down there with them, joined their little circle, danced with them, and made them feel like they were an important part of the celebration. Watching the kids light up around her was incredibly sweet. That small moment said so much about how caring and kind she is.
She was warm with our guests, flexible when things needed adjusting, and calm when we needed direction. Instead of feeling like we simply hired a DJ, it felt like we had another person on our team who genuinely wanted the night to go beautifully.
We are so grateful for everything DJ Inessa did for us. She helped turn a complicated day with a lot of moving pieces into a happy, memorable celebration. I would absolutely recommend her to another couple. Five stars without hesitation! ❤️

This review is long overdue, but we wanted to say thank you to DJ Daniel and DJ Inessa for helping make our June 2026 wedding so memorable.
We booked the AZBESTDJ Team after a sho...
rt phone call with DJ Daniel. He answered all of our questions, made the booking process simple, and we immediately felt comfortable choosing them for our big day.
Our wedding included an outdoor ceremony and a reception at a second venue about 15 minutes away. Since it was an 8-hour wedding at two locations, Daniel recommended bringing a second DJ. That turned out to be a great decision because everything flowed smoothly from start to finish.
Daniel provided the ceremony music and a wireless microphone for our officiant, who was a family member. The timing of every entrance song was perfect, especially the bridal entrance. Guests even commented that they could clearly hear every word of the ceremony.
The reception was just as much fun. Our parents and older family members loved the classic dance music, while later in the evening DJ Daniel did all the MC introductions and announcements we had planned. The dance floor stayed busy all night, and at 1am we he had big smiles and our guests are still talking about how great the dance music we chose and that DJ Daniel implemented was.
From the easy online quote and "click to book" deposit to the last dance, everything was organized, professional, and stress-free.
If you're looking for a professional Wedding DJ company that truly cares about your wedding vision, customizes the music to your style, and keeps everyone from your cousins to your aunts and uncles out on the dance floor, we highly recommend the AZBESTDJ Team. Thank you again, DJ Daniel and DJ Inessa, for helping make our wedding day so special!

me time 3 weeks before listening to our ideas about dance floor music and even pre ceremony background. On the big day Daniel timed our "Wedding processional" fade in and fade out perfectly and did a heartfelt introduction for my dad who was the first person to toast us as a couple at our reception. Highly Recommended if you want a DJ to trust that also puts music first!

My Husband and I planned a destination wedding at a country club in Arizona, where my parents retired. The venue encouraged us to use their “preferred DJ,” but he showed up to the ...
"country club wedding vendors" fair in a white miami vice era tuxedo with a teal cummerbund and bow tie(not judging, just was not exactly our style.) We’re so grateful we found the azbestdj.com team and we had 2 DJs at our event, DJ Daniel and DJ Inessa who were a great 2 DJ team instead.
Lead DJ Daniel and his assistant who ran music part of the night DJ Inessa were perfect—professional, polished, and respectful. They dressed in black slacks and black dress shirts, which let my husband’s black tie/and black tuxedo take center stage. Best of all, they played our entire playlist exactly that they "conveniently" said they could "easily copy" if we jsut sent a single "apple music playlist link' two weeks before the wedding via Apple Music.
The only hiccup? My bridesmaids wore spike heels, and by Sunday none of them could walk—but I guess that just proves how great the dance floor was!

st dance, she had the teens engaged.We were especially happy to find a DJ company that offered a fantastic female DJ. My daughter and her friends connected with Inessa right away, and you could tell they felt comfortable and energized by her presence. She understood the vibe, kept things flowing, and played a perfect mix of music .
We originally booked through DJ Daniel, who was professional, responsive, and explained that since Saturdays are in such high demand, he often assigns one of his trusted DJs. He thought DJ Inessa would be a great fit—especially since she’s also a mom of daughters—and he couldn’t have been more right.
The booking process was smooth and well-organized. We received planning forms in advance, and DJ Inessa met with us virtually to go over quince-specific music and announcements. Everything was planned out thoughtfully, and the event ran flawlessly.
If you’re looking for a DJ for a once in a lifetime special event, I can’t recommend DJ Inessa enough. The experience and results were outstanding from start to finish.

ough The Knot, and after initially reaching out he was super quick to get back to us so we could get the ball rolling. We were able to chat with him for about 30-45 minutes to give him an idea on what we are looking for, and he had so many useful tips and recommendations that we hadn't thought about before. Closer towards our wedding date we had another phone call visit, in which he sent over a pdf going through the entire day, starting from the ceremony all the way to the grand exit / final send off. He was super kind, thoughtful, funny and all around a great time to be around. He knew all of the songs we requested, and he even had other versions such as instrumental, slowed down version, radio edits, etc that we could listen to ensure it was what we were looking for. We provided about 25 dance songs, which helped him create a playlist based on our music tastes. He even stopped by the night of our rehearsal dinner so we could get the layout of our venue settled, and make sure we had a good spot for his equipment near the dance floor. He is super Intentive, and knew when to re-loop the song when our family walk down the isle took longer than expected, which we are super grateful for. By the end of the night, he was one of the last people to leave and im sure he was exhausted but he didn't let it show. He expressed just as much joy and excitement as the rest of our guests there, and we are beyond happy with everything he did. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! And thanks again for helping make our special day so beautiful!!

n the same tired songs(my fiance hate cupid shuffle, YMCA, type of DJs, just not our thing) We are so glad we "didnt do typical" and hired DJ Daniel and his wedding music team instead of the 3 others we spoke to.
We held our destination wedding inside Yosemite National Park, and while we initially booked Daniel for DJ music for both our outdoor ceremony and indoor reception, we later discovered that amplified sound wasn’t permitted outside in Yosemite national park. Without missing a beat, Daniel arranged for a live acoustic guitarist to perform during the ceremony. He managed every detail flawlessly—from the peaceful, intimate ceremony music to the vibrant DJ set at our reception back at the hotel.
What truly stood out was how intentional and personalized the entire experience felt. Since my partner and I are naturally more reserved, we provided a playlist in advance, and Daniel honored that completely—keeping announcements minimal, tasteful, and perfectly aligned with the tone we envisioned. The live guitarist even took the time to learn a specific pop song requested by the bride for her walk down the aisle, which was such a special touch.
It’s rare to find a vendor who can deliver both exceptional live ceremony music and a dynamic, personalized DJ experience with this level of professionalism and artistry. Daniel didn’t just play music—he helped shape the atmosphere and emotion of our day in a truly unforgettable way.

They made it easy to book, responded to emails within half a day, and arrived 2 hours early. They communicated well, covered every detail, and ensured everything ran smoothly.
Highly recommend! We have unique music taste, and we got what we wanted and our DJ took requests from both our 20-something cousins to our 55-year-old uncle, and all got exactly the music they wanted. The DJ even had "our requested" songs pre planned in his software and took "day of requests" from the cousins, uncle and our best man and had an easy-to-find "Dance Requests" sheet for guests to write down requests during the fast dancing.
Thanks to the azbestdj.com entire team for being our fun and reliable DJ company!

DJ Daniel Mobile Music was great to work with at first - Daniel was super kind to us and did a great job getting the dance floor going at the beginning of the night. However, as th...
e night went on, the quality of the music became just okay and Daniel was very rude to our guests. My husband's cousin went up to request a song and as her hands were full she tried to just tell him the song. He stopped the music to call attention to a person "who wanted to have a conversation with him" over the mic and then asked her if she thought it would be better next time to write down the song as he had asked. This was thoroughly embarrassing for her and I was pissed. Before that incident, my friend went up to ask him about a song. She was trying to explain that the song was also the name of an artist but she wanted the song and he said "Well we'll see I'm a DJ and I know more than you." When I heard it I thought he was trying to be funny but as the instances piled up, it was hard to dismiss. He was very kind to us but it was disappointing to see such a shift in his professionalism and we wish the entire experience had been as positive as the start of the night.

Dear Michaela,
Thank you so much for your review and for choosing us to DJ your wedding i...
n Anaheim! It was an absolute honor to be part of your big day, from planning your music two months in advance to creating such a fun and successful event. We're so glad to hear that overall, it was a positive experience.
It was a huge honor to plan your Grand entrance song, 1st danced, parent dances and more with you on virtual meeting 2 months before the wedding. We sincerely apologize for the challenges toward the end of the night. Your DJ assigned to in person DJ your wedding reception became a bit overwhelmed with verbal song requests over the loud music, which made it difficult to ensure accuracy. To avoid disruptions, we always encourage guests to write down their requests on our provided clipboard, and we regret that this wasn't followed, leading to brief pauses in the music. If we embarrassed any guests by pausing the music, we truly apologize.
At azbestdj.com, our mission is "Your Wedding Music, Your Way," and we aim to provide a smooth, uninterrupted music experience. We're sorry that the flow was impacted during the last 45 minutes and promise to improve in this area.
We’re so happy the wedding was a success overall, and we wish you and Mana a lifetime of love and happiness. Thank you again for letting us be part of your special day!
Warmest regards,
Daniel(Company Owner/Operator)

m the Desert Cities/East of Palm Springs to San Marcos without any additional mileage charges. Our DJ didn't arrive at 2 pm; instead, the DJ arrived at the golf course and was ready to setup by 1:45 pm. Our DJ executed a wonderful outdoor ceremony for us by the 12th fairway of the golf course, and then seamlessly transitioned inside for our cocktail hour and dinner dance reception.

n set up a separate "ceremony" area wireless microphone and DJ speaker to play our wedding marches outside that was about 500 feet away from our indoor reception. Our DJ even organized a pre-wedding Songs and Announcements planning meeting six weeks prior that nailed down everything from music requests to timing that my wife wanted for her "45 second march" down the aisle as the 2nd verse of her fave song started. Our guests loved the vibe, and the DJ nailed our song requests and took some from the crowd too and then filled in between with some faves from 90s and 2000s!

—super chill and gave us total confidence in planning our ceremony and reception music to our taste. The wedding dance floor was a hit, and the music was absolutely fantastic. We hit a minor snag at the first 5 or 10 seconds start of the ceremony with the wireless microphone acting up, but our DJ swiftly pulled out a second backup mic. Just 30 seconds into our pastor speaking, our DJ made the mic swap, and everything flowed smoothly. Major props for having that second backup and being on top of things!

It was a huge honor to have www.azbestdj.com provide music for your wedding! We scan and "...
test" wireless microphones for "range and dropouts" 30 minutes before the ceremony but sometimes these things happen so thanks for understanding. I'm so glad we "caught" that "slight wireless dropout" and your assigned DJ "Swapped" the wireless mic with our 2nd "ready and waiting" backup mic! Congrats again!

Morgan and Dimitri,
Thanks again for choosing my company azbestdj.com to DJ your big day!...
It was an immense honor to serve as the wedding DJ for your breathtaking outdoor wedding ceremony and reception on your private property on September 30, 2023, set amidst the stunning backdrop of the Pine Trees. The unique and heartwarming aspect of having your 2 horses present during the ceremony, was truly a first for me, despite having DJed at hundreds of weddings over the past decade. Super unique and cool and I'll always remember your horses being there to witness the ceremony and take guest pictures with for cocktail hour!
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to both of you for selecting me as your wedding DJ. It was a truly memorable and exceptional experience.
Warm regards,
AZBESTDJ.com and owner/Senior DJ Daniel

mportantly Daniel really cared about our wedding day ! I mean, he went above and beyond to make sure everything was smooth and exactly how we wanted it. Communication was on point, and he really took the time to understand us and make the day uniquely ours.
I had my special "1st Dance" and "Ceremony music" picked out, but with a "super diverse age group" I wanted everyone to have "their generations music" for fast dancing so Daniel did a mix of Today's Hits, plus 70s 80s 90s 2000s classics that kept all entertained! I am glad trusted Daniel to keep the party going and he totally nailed it! We've got some Greek family on my mom's side, and he took a request from a family member to play Greek song later in the night that got everyone dancing together. My aunt led the dance step, and it was a blast!

song requests and for dancing the night away! It was an absolute honor to be the DJ for your wedding through my company, www.azbestdj.com. By the way, if your engaged cousin from Southern California, who caught the Bouquet, needs a DJ for her San Diego wedding in 2024, tell her to reach out to me at 480-234-3181. I'd be thrilled to bring the same joy and energy to her special day too! Looking forward to connecting with her. Cheers! Daniel

DJ Daniel was seriously the best. Everyone knows how important a DJ can be to the entire vibe of one’s wedding, in addition to the importance of keeping the flow of the day going. ...
DJ Daniel was extremely thorough and I felt so prepared going into our big day without a worry in the world that everything would run smoothly.. and it did! He also was able to read our crowd really well and played music that had people on the dance floor until the moment the music stopped.
For everything he provided, including his expertise, equipment, and easiness to work with I think his rates are on par and affordable and I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him in the future if I needed a DJ!

During our 20-minute phone call, we discussed all the details of the wedding and he was incredibly attentive and pleasant to speak with. His passion for creating a truly special musical experience was evident.
Even after we booked , Daniel continued to impress. He followed up with us to make sure my daughter and son-in-law had everything they needed to plan the music for the wedding day. It was clear that he genuinely cares about making each event as unique and epic as possible.
I am already looking forward to hiring Daniel and his team again for my next daughter's wedding in 2024.

equested a "Proof of Business Insurance" document, he promptly provided it. One of our biggest concerns was having a "cheesy" DJ who played predictable wedding tunes like the YMCA, Cupid Shuffle, and Electric Slide as the first three songs. Fortunately, DJ Daniel quickly put those fears to rest. He took the time to get to know us personally and understand our unique musical preferences. As we are quite particular about music, we provided him with an extensive Spotify playlist of background and fast dancing songs. He flawlessly incorporated these songs into the perfect order, resulting in a fantastic and unforgettable experience for us, our friends, and family.

Neither of us are huge dancers, and a lot of the music we typically listen to isn't really music for dancing at a wedding. Daniel took those song ideas and then did a great job of getting an idea of our music taste and reading the room to play what our guests needed. We got lots of comments from our guests about how great the music was that night!
