Working with Bamboo Beats was one of the top experiences both DURING planning & DURING our wedding. From the moment that we met with Joanna & Isaac, my husband & I knew that this was the DJ team we wanted for our wedding. My husband has a strong hip-hop / R&B musical taste, while mine is more pop / rock / emo (very specific). We were worried that it wouldn't be an equal representation of our styles, and the only thing we wanted was for our wedding to be a HUGE dance party. With each meeting with Isaac & Joanna we became even more confident in our decision, and their app was awesome to help stay organized with music and made everything so easy to share what mattered most to us on the day.
When the day finally came, Isaac absolutely crushed his role of setting the tone for each moment. We both had a great experience walking down the aisle, we heard from everyone that our cocktail hour was a vibe (while we were whisked away on a boat ride), dinner hour tunes were exactly what we hoped & the photos speak for themselves for our after party. It was magical.
I can't recommend Bamboo Beats enough for your wedding, or honestly any event. They are kind, thoughtful, experienced, professional, and above all else - a great vibe setter (no matter your event vibe goals). We had a blast!
Hire Bamboo Beats!!!! Best dance party of my life! Literally did not leave the dance floor. Multiple guests came up to me and said this was the best wedding music they’d ever heard — because it wasn’t cookie cutter! Isaac and JoJo really took the time to listen and totally nailed the vibe. They also have a really cool app that makes it easy to collaborate. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Waylon, Jojo, and the whole team were amazing to work with! We had multiple calls and the app was nice to be able to organize everything. The music was really important to us so we wanted to make sure we had good music all night and Waylon killed it! Everyone was dancing and had a great time. Highly recommend using Bamboo Beats for your next event!
We absolutely LOVED our experience with Waylon and Bamboo Beats!
First and foremost- Waylon was an amazing DJ, our friends and family were commenting on his talent throughout the night. He was responsive to requests, read the room really well, and kept a variety of nonstop hits coming for our 5 hour dance party! He also seemed like he was enjoying himself, which was super fun for us to see throughout the night. He captured some great videos and pictures throughout the evening too, and since we were busy dancing, it was SO fun to be able to look back and re-live these moments later!
We also loved our experience with Jojo and Bamboo Beats leading up to the wedding. We had an initial Zoom call, and then after booking there was clear and concise ent communication. We filled out a preliminary form and then they had a great app where we could upload songs, notes, playlists from Spotify, and about a month before the wedding we had another call with Jojo and Waylon (our DJ).
We felt very seen and cared for throughout the planning process and then our experience the day of was 12 out of 10.
Thank you, Waylon, Jojo and the Bamboo Beats team- we HIGHLY recommend them for your wedding or event.

We are so happy we hired Bamboo Beats as our wedding DJ! Isaac and Jojo were so easy to work with and had a ton of knowledge from doing so many past weddings. Their pre-wedding meetings and spreadsheets helped us feel organized and totally prepared for the big day. At the wedding, Isaac did a great job emceeing and keeping everything moving on time. During the reception, Isaac knew exactly what songs to play and our dance floor was PACKED – with both young and old. Friends and family said afterwards that they loved our DJ and had a blast dancing all night! I would highly recommend working with Bamboo Beats for any wedding!
Bamboo Beats was the perfect DJ for our wedding! We loved having them there for both our ceremony and reception. The pre-wedding meeting that we had was super helpful to go through the flow of the day and helped us think about what "vibe" we wanted for each portion of the wedding. Isaac kept the party going all night long! Isaac even added a few cultural songs that were a special request on the night of the wedding and made sure that they were played at the perfect time. Thank you bamboo beats!
Best DJ service! So glad we found them to be our DJ for our wedding. Not only are they super talented but also the nicest people! Super responsive too, I had package information and a meeting set up within hours of contacting them. Working with Jojo and Isaac was such a pleasure. Hire them, they are great!
They send you easy to fill out work sheets that really help you plan and organize your event. You can link songs and playlists as well. What was great was that I gave them some songs we liked and a playlist to work off of and they took it and ran with it. I loved hearing what they came up with throughout the event.
They made our wedding day feel so special and fun. Not your average DJ, they actually live mixed songs together and added a whole other level of entertainment and kept the party going. Bamboo Beats was very professional and communicative plus overall amazing as a DJ, Emcee, and overall entertainment. We couldn't be happier with how our event turned out!
Booking with Bamboo Beats was one of the easiest choices we made for our wedding vendors. They are extremely organized and make everything super easy via a shared spreadsheet and Spotify list for them to access on the day of your event. ALL of our guests mentioned how much they loved our DJ and we agree that there is nobody better! Don't look any further--book with the best Djs in Seattle!
If dancing and a good time at your reception are your top wedding priorities, hire Bamboo Beats! We loved working with Jojo and Isaac, and our DJ, Topspin aka Blendiana Jones, was THE highlight of reception! Isaac and DJ Topspin met with my husband and I twice to lock-in our wedding timeline, our expectations, and, most importantly, our vibe! We felt completely comfortable with the gameplan by the time the wedding day arrived. DJ Blendiana Jones coordinated all the right cues for the ceremony and reception. When it came time for open dancing, he read the dancefloor perfectly (he had our 79+ year old grandparents out there while not losing a single under-30!), kept the energy up, and perfectly handled requests (he knew exactly which ones to play and which requests to, kindly and tactfully, skip), and looked sharp doing it all! He even kept his cool when our outdoor wedding turned into the lightning storm of the decade! We couldn’t have asked for a more professional team leading the party on our wedding day! Do yourself a favor and hire Bamboo Beats!
We loved Bamboo Beats!! We worked with Jojo and Isaac and they were both super fun and very professional. They were easy to work with and helped us plan our music vibe for dinner and dancing. Isaac did an amazing job keeping the party going until the very last song - some of the catering staff commented that they didn't usually see the dancing go so late! They were also subtle and didn't make any loud announcements which impacted the flow of the night. We got multiple compliments about the music and dancing from guests of all ages, which was pretty remarkable because we had quite a spread.
Bamboo Beats was a fantastic DJ at our wedding. From the first interaction with Jojo, to the very last song played, the whole experience with Bamboo Beats was smooth and without issue. Isaac and Jojo had two meetings with my husband and I prior to the wedding and understood exactly what type of music and vibe we were looking for, from the ceremony to the reception. Both were easy to work with and very responsive with our email questions and requests. The music at the wedding was exactly what we had discussed and provided a perfect piece to our entire wedding. After the wedding, many guests complimented how great the music was and I couldn’t agree more. Also, Jojo’s energy was fantastic and it was a pleasure working with her and Isaac. I highly recommend Bamboo Beats for any occasion.
Bamboo Beats has an amazing reputation around Seattle as being the best wedding DJ in town, but what set them apart from our perspective was how perfectly they executed all of the very particular requests we had. My wife and I are huge music fans and we had a very specific vision for our ceremony, dinner, and dancing portions, and Bamboo Beats did it all flawlessly. From cueing in music to a specific moment for the bridal entrance, to mashing together a Drake medley for our dance party, it was all perfect. They were extremely easy to work with on all our requests and always found a way to make our asks come to life. They also have an incredible sense for the dance floor and what is making people most excited, so if you want your music to be perfect and your dance party to be an incredible, we could not recommend Bamboo Beats enough!
PS - their dance floor lighting was great too!
5 stars, hands down! Jojo and Isaac were absolutely amazing!! They have the ability to read a crowd and play exactly what everyone wants. Our wedding day was an absolute blast and they played a huge role in that. Highly recommend them if you want to have the best wedding or event ever!:)
Jojo and Isaac were so professional during the whole process. We were able to meet with them to share our vision for our wedding day. They provided the perfect atmosphere for our entire reception from dinner to ending. Our guests were dancing through the night and no one wanted to leave! Our favorite songs were played during the evening along with mixing in songs we would not have thought of. It all flowed perfectly! Jojo was great at communication during the planning and had a touch base call a few weeks before to review the timeline and song recommendations. We provided only a few songs to give a sense of our style and they filled in the rest to perfection. Thank you Bamboo Beats!
If you are in need of a DJ for your event or wedding, look no further. Bamboo is exactly what you need for any occasion. My wife and I were looking for someone who could create the setting, mood and vibe that we desired for our wedding this past March and were considering everyone from live bands to solo artists, but when we got on the phone with Bamboo, we knew we found our perfect match. It was lit!
It was clear right away that they could cater to any audience, but when we explained the crowd that would be in attendance and threw out some of our favorite songs, Bamboo instantly started making recommendations that we fell in love with.
From there, they outlined their different packages and offerings and were accommodating on what we were looking for specifically. They have some amazing packages with projections and lighting that turn a curated DJ set into a full event experience.
The wedding itself went off without a hitch - bamboo were there and timed everything perfectly. They read the crowd right and kept everyone going.
Couldn't recommend anyone better.
Bamboo Beats took our special day to a whole different level unimagined by us and our guest. Seeing them set up the event as a husband and wife and seeing how attentive they were to us showed us how blessed we were to have them as a memorable part of our Union. Seattle had a historic rainy streak and our Wedding was the most beautiful day of the year and we are so glad that Bamboo was their to be our Witness and to hold the house together with their ingenuity and care for the finer details. We loved the VJ'ing and the light show and the music was perfectly timed and aligned. Thank you for making our day special and making us feel and remember a Memory that will last a lifetime.
Dang! You will not regret booking Bamboo Beats as your DJ for any occasion! DJ Cues was our DJ for our wedding and we appreciated him so much. From the first time we contacted Bamboo Beats, Jojo responded so quickly and we were able to meet with DJ Cues and DJ Tecumseh right away. These guys are the real deal, not those wedding vendors who "claim" to be DJs and all they do is "plug in an iPod and let things flow." Nope, not with Bamboo Beats. What we appreciated the most is that DJ Cues took the time to meet with us throughout planning our wedding. He even attended our venue walkthrough with our coordinator and spent time with us on the phone to ensure he understood the type of music we wanted for both our ceremony and reception. Our wedding had all ages represented - from toddlers to seniors, and he had people from our family - aunts, uncles and tias and tios who NEVER dance out there and having a great time! Those moments seeing our family dancing their hearts out is truly made our night and DJ Cues was a huge part of that. Don’t hesitate to hire Bamboo Beats. Thank you all so much!
First class DJs. Could not have asked for a better team to work with. We got the video package with the massive projector screen and it was well worth it. Having gone through the begrudging process of looking for trusted, high-quality, personable vendors let me save you a ton of time and anxiety -- just hire Bamboo Beats.
WE LOVED BAMBOO BEATS! Jojo and Isaac were the dream team! We instantly felt a connection at our initial meeting and it only got better from then! They killed it at our reception! We loved all the music they played and they definitely know how to get the party started and keep the party going! Our dance floor was packed all night long till the very last song! (and we had almost 4 hours of dancing at our reception) They became like friends to us in the end and we couldn't have been happier! They have our highest praise and recommendation!
Bamboo Beats was great! They set up a pre-meeting so that you can go over alllll the songs you could ever want. Our DJ hit all of our musical cues (and there were several) and helped us manage the flow of our evening. I would definitely hire them again!
True professionals. They took our list of music and crafted an evening that really captured the vibe that we wanted. DJ Tecumseh (Isaac) played the songs that we loved that weren't even on the list, by "reading through the lines" of our music. They worked so smoothly with the venue and our coordinator. The uplighting and the video screens really added to experience, without being overwhelming in the venue.
They will make your event!
Bamboo Beats was the easiest decision we made in our wedding planning. They truly are the best and I wouldn't think twice about hiring them for anything. Jojo & DJ Tecumseh took care of every single need & request my husband and I had. We also requested a more atypical flow for the evening than most vendors are used to and Jojo, who planned it all with me, took it all in stride and made the evening work out perfectly. We also gave a decent amount of very particular song & vibe requests and were not let down - DJ Tecumseh put on the best dance party we could have asked for. All of our family & friends raved about how good our DJ was at reading the room & keeping the energy up all night. Thank you Isaac & Jojo for making our wedding night everything we wanted!
JoJo and Issac were awesome! They really are the full package when it comes to weddings! We did not have to worry about anything, and they even made us a really cool slideshow that everyone loved. The flat screens that we got for each side of the room really made things look modern and clean. It also saved alot of room for our reception area. I loved how they were so on point with timelines and made sure we went over it several times to make sure we were all on the same page before the big day. I highly recommend them for weddings, they made our day awesome and got so many compliments on how great the music was all night!
Jojo and Isaac were awesome!!! They were so easy to work with and did an amazing job! Thank you!
Jojo and Isaac were great! Their pre-wedding form/sheet is SO helpful. It really actually helped me with my entire day of timeline too! I had so much fun picking out all the songs and looking at what music would be when. They were very reasonable in terms of negotiations and how this would all come together. They were on time, did exactly what I asked, were very friendly and respectful of the venue. Everyone loved the music and the whole evening really flowed well! Thanks again guys!!!!
DJ WD4D was INCREDIBLE! He kept the party going, playing the best of the best! We will be recommending him and Bamboo Beats to ALL of our couples, because he made our job as wedding planners run nice and smooth!
We had heard all over that Bamboo Beats was the best and everyone was right! Jojo and Isaac are amazing and were so wonderful every time we met with them, they knew our venue and were able to accommodate exactly what I wanted in terms of a dance floor area. Dancing is definitely not the priority for my husband and I when we go to weddings but that dance floor was totally packed (for our small wedding!) and people were loving everything Isaac played. He was able to seamlessly work in the 80s hair band hits I love and the pop music that had everyone jumping around! It was just a fantastic party from start to finish!
AS a local wedding planner, I know when Bamboo Beats is involved, it's going to be a GOOD wedding! They are always organized, thorough, and I just adore Jojo. I have worked with several of their DJ's and they ALL deliver a packed dance floor, great vibes, on time days, and great MC'ing etc. I highly recommend them to all of my couples, and anyone getting married! ALWAYS a great time!
Bamboo Beats are SO great. Jojo and Issac are true professionals and so wonderful to work with. We were sold 20 minutes into our first meeting with them. They created a great party for us. The only thing stopping this from being a 5 star review were a few technical issues during the ceremony where the officiant's mic was fuzzy and there was some feedback on the processional music which they promptly fixed. Other than that the party was incredible and the team is amazing.
When planning our wedding we were told to focus on 3 main things for an unforgettable day. Music was one of those things. Like most couples out there planning a wedding, we needed help. We did a lot of our own searching but always got really overwhelmed. We ended up hiring a wedding coordinator whom had Bamboo Beats on their preferred list, that and I had a niece that also kept recommending we work with them. We already knew they were great, since we saw them at the wedding show a month prior. So we ended up pulling the trigger and decided to push forward.
From the very first meeting to our very last song of the wedding night. It felt like nothing but the best from Isaac and Jojo. Working with them put our minds at ease. Talking with them was always easy and personable. They are a great team, and genuinely great people who equally love what they do.
I was afraid that having such a diverse wedding crowd of 200+ would be hard to please, but everything seemed to flow smoothly. From playing Cannon in D to take me down the isle, to soft lovey dovey songs during cocktail hour. Then to the reception where we had music playing everywhere from 90’s R&B, to traditional Laotian music, to the usual Filipino dance party songs lol, and then back to the top 40’s. It was just great!! The dance floor was always lively. It made us happy to see our guests happy.
After the wedding we got so many compliments on how much fun everyone had, which was exactly what we wanted. Thank you Isaac, Jojo, and Bamboo Beats for pulling it off so seamlessly. We highly recommend them for your next musical needs! They really are the best you can get!!
Bamboo Beats is simply AMAZING!!!! Jojo and DJ Tecumseh aka Isaac were great to deal with from when we first met them at the wedding show in seattle to the private party event they held and hearing our friends rave about them, we knew we had made the right decision to create a partnership. We considered them family even before our big day. They flawlessly executed our wedding and we couldn’t imagine using anyone else. Everyone had a blast and loved the music that kept them dancing all night! We will end this with a quote from one of our guests, “my daughters don’t dance, but they danced the whole night because of the music.” Bamboo Beats is worth the investment to make your special day memorable for you and your guests.
I was thrilled with my experience with Bamboo Beats. They DJ'd my wedding on July 9, and so many guests said it was one of the most fun dance parties they'd ever had!
Bamboo Beats excels at precise attention to detail. We started our relationship via an initial meeting, which the co-owner and proposed DJ came extremely prepared for. We ended up going with that DJ, and he alleviated so many of my concerns with choosing someone without being at one of their events by HAND MIXING some song specifically for my husband and I.
After booking, Bamboo Beats followed up with, again, an extremely high level of attention to detail. They were meticulous about my song requests, my "do not play" list, which specific artist I was referring to when I mentioned a particular song, etc. They also connected me with a phenomenal lighting company to accompany the decor.
The week before my wedding, the co-owner, JoJo, called me to go through every minute detail one more time. She ensured the DJ had good pronunciation of names, that we had a song for each part of every event, and that placement of the booth was exactly how we wanted it. Not a detail was overlooked.
Most importantly, the wedding itself was flawlessly executed by Bamboo Beats. The DJ had a perfect balance of announcing transitions so the night went smoothly, but letting the music speak for itself and not speaking over it for no reason. The mixing was flawless and he kept to the feel we wanted. Guests were dancing until 2am at which point I had to beg him to play the last song because it wasn't looking like anyone wanted to leave and we were ready to go to bed!! :)
Overall, I highly recommend Bamboo Beats and WD4D, the DJ who we chose, for your wedding or any other event that requires attention to detail and phenomenal DJing!!
Bamboo Beats was such a blast at our wedding! They stayed true to the songs on our "must play" list and also added other songs that worked great with the overall theme we were going for. We made quite a few last minute changes to our music itinerary document and Jojo and DJ Tecumseh were both very flexible and accepting of our changes. I was actually afraid one of the changes I requested wouldn't be made (I made it the morning of the wedding) but they surprised me by actually making the change; I was so impressed! The price was well worth it and we are so glad we hired Bamboo Beats as the DJ for our wedding!
My wife and I had a very positive experience with Jojo and Isaac at Bamboo beats.
The planning process was easy and solid. We live in a different city and setup a face to face meeting to get to know Isaac and talk about the process. They were very organized, with forms to fill out. They asked all of the right questions about the logistics and allowed us to fill out song preferences.
I appreciate that I was able to define the direction of the music and Isaac connected the dots will with other similar music.
The actual performance (ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, dancing) was magical and perfect and covered the range of classical, swing jazz, country, heavy metal, EDM, and opera.
We are very happy with the planning process, sound & lighting equipment, communication with Jojo, logistics setup the day-of, and of course the DJ performance itself.
We couldn't be happier with our experience with Bamboo Beats. I work in the wedding industry myself, and have worked alongside Jojo and Isaac on many weddings. They'd proven their professionalism countless times over, so booking them for my own wedding was one of the easiest decisions in the whole planning process. As a bonus, they were also palpably excited to be working with us, which was so refreshing! (No jaded-old-wedding-pro stuff here; these people really love what they do and each client is a fresh opportunity for them.) We were really thrilled that Isaac, aka DJ Tecumseh (the co-founder and principal DJ) was actually available for our wedding date. Score! Email communication was consistently friendly and efficient, and the worksheets we were given to help refine our music choices were incredibly helpful and thorough.
DJ Tecumseh's adaptability and calm demeanor is the icing on the cake. He worked seamlessly alongside our musician friend Jon, who played live jazz piano during parts of the ceremony and during the post-ceremony cocktail hour. So, we needed our DJ to play during pre-ceremony cocktails, during dinner, and then for a couple hours of dancing. The complicating factor was that our ceremony was outdoors and our reception indoors; this presented no problem to Bamboo Beats -- they simply set up additional speakers outside, and everything sounded perfect throughout the day, regardless of locale. Dinner ran quite a bit later than expected on our timeline, so the first dances and the rest of the party had a delayed start -- again, no problem for Tecumseh; he took it all in his stride and got everyone on their feet with some *perfect* and danceworthy tunes right from the outset.
We didn't have a long list of song requests for the dance party itself, but there were still a few on there that were favorites. Tecumseh managed to streamline them all perfectly into the overall mix of soul and funk that he spun for us. We still chuckle about the fact that my husband's cousin, who had had back surgery not long before our wedding, was still partying hard, walking cane and all! Our only regret is that we hired them until 11pm, when we could've easily kept dancing for another hour.
Once the last song had played, all the guests trickled home and Isaac and Jojo were starting to pack up their equipment. At this point, my husband and I were so jacked up on all the energy from the day that there was no way we'd be going to sleep soon, so we sat down and hung out with Jojo and Isaac for a few minutes. They chatted with us about the day and told us little stories of what the wedding was like from their perspective. It was so neat to have that little nugget of downtime with them, and it shows not only how personable and generous they both are, but also how easy it is to be around them!
It was such a pleasure to work with a team like Jojo and Isaac. They really made our wedding complete; the music kicked ass and their service was world class. We recommend them wholeheartedly!
We hired Bamboo Beats based on our experience with them at a friends wedding.
Both my Bride and I noted, as guests at that wedding, that neither of us had ever danced so much, or so enthusiastically at another wedding. Based on that we chose to hire Issac and Jojo for our own wedding a year later.
Both Issac and Jojo were professional, responsive, and as enthusiastic about our wedding as we were.
I cannot say enough good things about them both, their equipment, and the overall experience. They made the reception, and kept the dance floor packed for guests of all ages all night.
If you are in Seattle (or the greater metro area) there is no reason to hire anyone else.
Thank you Issac and Jojo, you truly helped make the night unforgettable.
Jojo and Isaac provided an experience neither we will never forget! Our biggest fear going in to the wedding was the fickle nature of our guests and their motivation to stay out on the dance floor; Isaac's beats kept everyone on the floor and dancing until the very end!
Professional and courteous from the very beginning, Jojo made our experience easy to manage and ensured everything was a stress free as possible!
Bamboo Beats was our only choice for our wedding DJ. Jojo was so incredibly responsive. Isaac was professional and informative. DJ Cues rocked the house at the reception. We have friends who still ask for a repeat of the wedding so they can dance all over again. We couldn't be happier with our choice!
These guys are the best DJ's around. Everything from their customized approach to ensuring your event is how you envision it to the organization they demonstrate upon your initial consultation tells you they're passionate about what they do and complete professionals.
For our wedding, DJ Cues put together 3 awesome playlists for the cocktail hour, dinner and the post dinner party. DJ Cues was easily able to size up the crowd and played music that kept all of our 100+ guests on the dance floor all night. I simply cannot say enough good things about Cues and Bamboo Beats. If you're booking vendors for your wedding, you owe it to yourself to at least meet with these guys!
Bamboo Beats was the perfect choice for our wedding. We wanted dancing to be the focus of our reception and thanks to the help of DJ Cue and his wife, our guests danced the night away.
Joanna and the rest of the staff were professional and responsive throughout the entire planning process. They took all of our requests and made them happen seamlessly. Our wedding would not have been the same without Bamboo Beats!
DJ Cues and Rubbie from Bamboo Beats absolutely rocked our wedding! From start to end, the music was excellent, and several guests commented that it was the best music they'd heard at a wedding. They were very professional and easy to work with, and worked extra hard to make sure everything was set up in time (we had very limited time before the wedding to get ready).
We went with the video package, primarily so we could have pictures showing during dinner -- and it turned out to be a great decision! The videos accompanying the old school dance hits were so much fun, and it was a crowd favorite.
Bamboo beats was not the lowest bidder of the DJs we looked at, but they are worth every penny in value! I would highly recommend them to anyone.
We had DJ Cues for our August 2nd wedding. Him and Ruby were so fantastic. Our only regret was that we only hired them until 10, because people would have kept dancing till midnight if we had let them.
We worked with JoJo to get everything situated before the big day, and then met with DJ Cues a week or so before the wedding.
I couldn't think of a genre for cocktail hour and dinner, and DJ Cues suggested rat pack, which was absolutely perfect, and I couldn't believe I didn't think about it before.
JoJo gave us suggestions for our entrance song and a final song, all of which were very helpful. We did uplighting, which I highly recommend if they wedding goes into the night.
DJ Cues was a great MC. We gave him things to say and part of it, we just let him go with it, and he was great!
We would highly recommend Bamboo Beats for any wedding!
After reading previous reviews for Bamboo Beats and meeting with DJ Cues, it's no surprise that people are still talking about the dance floor of our wedding night. It was the perfect choice for us!!
We were very particular about the music we wanted played during the ceremony and cocktail hour. Not only did DJ Cues mix our music perfectly, but he found the perfect compliments to our chosen music to set just the right mood.
My mother wanted to do a goofy, choreographed mother/son dance ('cupid shuffle' and 'crank that' - hah!) so Cues mixed a special medley for us and sent me an mp3 ahead of time to let us practice -- allowing us to look _slightly_ less foolish. I thought that was a really nice thing to do for us.
Once the dancing started, we asked for his expertise to guide the night, and it was packed and raging the entire time. It was perfect!! Highly recommend Bamboo Beats and DJ Cues for your wedding.
Wow! What a fabulous evening you created for Truc and John. We could not have been more pleased. I think you are an asset that no wedding should be without. Our caterer told us not to let anyone talk us into any other DJ. It had to be Bamboo Beats and ignore other recommendations. She was right on.
It is obvious that you have done many events. The suggestions you had for getting guests on the dance floor were brilliant. We had an older couple say that they were sore the following day saying they hadn't danced like that since they were 18.
We had nothing but positive comments from all of our guests. You were perfect and did a great job reading the crowd. The dancing was the perfect length of time (thanks to your recommendation), the music was perfect and the overall party feel was perfect.
I loved Jojo. She was so helpful keeping us on schedule and making sure everything flowed perfectly. She was almost like the evening event coordinator. Nothing but positive comments for you. Thanks for making this quickly planned event magical,
Securing Bamboo Beats for my wedding was the best decision I made to guarantee a successful wedding day. I selected Bamboo Beats for my wedding because they have a great reputation for getting the party started and also reading the crowd. I also like that they are not a “push a button on a laptop” DJ – they use turntables to mix songs together seamlessly - basically the real deal. From the start they were easy to work. I appreciate that they take the time to thoroughly understand your vision for your wedding day and your audience. I had some particular music cues I needed them to hit, and they executed them better than I had pictured in my head. Honestly, I don’t think of myself of a huge dancer without some liquid courage…but two seconds into the reception I couldn’t hold back. And neither could my guests – young and old. I had a couple song requests, and they took over the rest with absolute perfection. Huge success. Everyone is still talking about awesome my DJ was.
WOW...what can I say about Bamboo Beats!?! They were simply amazing to work with and truly professional. Our wedding was simply EPIC and we could not have done it with out them.
Music was one of the most important things that we knew we had to be just right for our wedding. I've known DJ Tecemseh and his wife Jojo for 10+ years and have been a guest at other weddings they've DJ'd and known several others who have hired them. Besides that I've had the pleasure of working with them and enjoying their music at other events around Seattle. It's always a great experience knowing you're working with top talent and awesome people who know how to deliver!
They traveled from Seattle to Half Moon Bay, CA to dj our event. You must be thinking that there are a ton of dope dj's here in The Bay Area that I could reach out to, but I knew I could trust none other than Bamboo Beats for our once in a lifetime event.
DJ Tecumseh, Gumbeux and Cues were on point with everything from the music, lighting and MC'ing. How cool is video djing?!? They catered to the old and the young and made sure everyone had a great time while sticking to the timeline and improvising when things were off track.
I can't thank you all enough for giving us the wedding music of our dreams! :)
First off - Jojo communicates so efficiently any bride would be put at ease. DJ Cues and Rubbie were awesome! We did a lot of things ourself for our wedding but didn't want to take a chance with music. We got the package for the ceremony and reception. We had a lot of last minute changes to manage but needless to say, the energy changed once the music started. They kept everyone calm with great music and very positive attitudes :0) DJ Cues and Rubbie brought all of their experience with them, paid attention to fine details, and offered help when needed. Rubbie actually decorated our impromptu metal arch with flowers! I felt like I'd known them for years, yet they were extremely professional. My side of the family is from South FL, Chicago, and Atlanta. My husband's side is from CA and WA. Everyone was impressed, happy, and groovin right along. The mood and music went hand in hand. I'm so glad we went with Bamboo Beats. I will always remember where I was, who I was with, and how I felt when the music started.
Isaac kept our party rolling all night! It was one of the best dance parties I have ever attended and I heard similar sentiments from many of our guests. After all the traditional formalities, we wanted a true dance party, and he was able to provide just that. He was great at reading the crowd and adjusting and mixing the music accordingly. Everyone was blown away.
The lead up to the wedding was equally impressive. Isaac and JoJo are a great team who know how to ask the right questions and come prepared. They are incredibly professional while also making a personal connection. We felt really comfortable working with them and sharing our thoughts about music preferences.
The reception went so smoothly much thanks to Bamboo Beats and the excellent MC-ing that took place at our wedding. The communication before and during the wedding was perfect and the music was a huge hit. We would recommend Bamboo Beats to anyone looking to throw a great celebration.
Bamboo Beats Dj'd our wedding at the end of April and they were fantastic. We are so lucky to have found JoJo and Isaac. They are such a great pair and do such a great job. They are both very personable and willing to do anything that makes your special day the best it can be. The uprights were awesome.. All the music and the videos were awesome. My husband asked Isaac to play the Monday night NFL song when he did the garter toss, at the last minute and Isaac was able to do it.
We always recommend Bamboo Beats to anyone that is getting married or having a big party. They are just so awesome, words can't express.
Thank you JoJo and Isaac! We are SO lucky to have you share our special day!
All of my guests said that Bamboo Beats was the best DJ they had ever heard at a wedding. It was the perfect balance between making sure that everything kept moving and playing awesome music. He read the crowd perfectly and everyone had a great time in large part because of the music.
We used Bamboo Beats for our wedding on 10/26/2012. They were fantastic! Music was great and they kept the event moving all night long. They were so friendly and easy to work with and always responded quickly to my emails. We met several times prior to our wedding and they were so helpful planning the evening’s timeline. I was also having trouble finding the right music for our ceremony but, Jojo came to the rescue! Bamboo Beats is fantastic and I would highly recommend them.
They guys are professionals. They know what they are doing and they throw the best dance party out there. Hire them. NOW!
We hired the Bamboo Beats group for our wedding in September 2012. They are a very professional group, and were easy to get in touch with and communicate with.
The music during the wedding was excellent, and many of our guests commented on how much fun the music was.
However, our DJ seemed very nervous. He mispronounced my name several times. In addition, although we discussed the ceremony set-up in advance, he did not have a microphone in advanced as we discussed, such that a lot of our guests could not hear the readings.
I honestly can't say how happy we are to have found Bamboo Beats. Based on our somewhat eclectic musical taste, DJ Cues created an amazing playlist that had me wanting to dance all night. He helped the reception move along smoothly, but was totally not obtrusive. Can't recommend enough! Probably a little pricey (and a little outside of our budget), but totally worth it if you want your music to rock.
Bamboo Beats provided all of the music for our wedding - Ceremony, Cocktail Hour and Reception. We did the Video DJ package that included the LED llighting and it was worth every penny. DJ Cues kept everyone dancing throughout the entire evening!
Working with Jojo is great! She is super responsive, helpful and flexible. I would recommend Bamboo Beats to anyone looking for a DJ - if they are still available for your big day, book them while you can! I will miss working with them - hopefully I will be attending an event with them very soon! :)
We really enjoyed having Bamboo Beats as our ceremony and reception DJ. Jojo and Issac are very personable and easy to work with both in person and by email. They are also very organized. They provided many useful worksheets, included a blank timeline for me to fill out with their cues, a "special songs" list, and a list of my reception songs.
I probably gave them more structure than was even needed. I picked about 30 of the reception songs while writing my wedding invitations and listening to Pandora. But they even said you could just give them a list of a few of your favorite songs or genres and they could create your list that way too. I was not able to fill the full 4 and a half hours with music, and that's fine, because they did a wonderful job adding songs to our list to fill in the blanks. We had a Spanish themed wedding, so for the cocktail hour I had them playing flamenco music, I was a little afraid they wouldn't be able to find the music I requested, but they had no difficulty finding lovely flamenco songs.
All the songs mixed seamlessly together. They made wonderful selections, because it seemed like everyone had a great time dancing! They did a good job MCing when it was needed but playing music the rest of the time. They worked well with the other vendors letting them know what they needed and kept them informed about timing. They provided uplighting for our wedding (in our wedding colors), which in the unprofessional photos looks amazing, so I can only imagine how it looks in the professional photos. They provided music for our ceremony - which because it was at the Seattle Parks couldn't be "amplified", but they did a wonderful job playing quiet music for us on their laptop with speakers to get around that. I would definitely recommend them to a friend.
We had an epic dance party thanks to Bamboo Beats. They are a great team and kept the event moving and the party hopping!
Bamboo Beats was organized and awesome. Jo Jo and Isaac are a well oiled machine. They helped us plan our our wedding ceremony to a T. We provided a music list/genre preference for all aspects of our wedding (pre-wedding, ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, dancing...) and the guests were very impressed. They have an extensive knowledge of R&B and hip-hop music, but incorporated everything we asked for. They provide their own sound system and mics for the officiant and readers. The sets they played were seamless. They kept our guests on the dance floor until the venue shut us down. They were prompt, communicative, and helpful. I would highly recommend them to anyone. The most awesome part: they helped off-set our wedding's carbon footprint!! They are very eco-friendly which is something that is near and dear to my heart. Way to go, Bamboo Beats!
Bamboo Beats know how to rock a party! The music at our ceremony, reception, and dancing was romantic, relaxing, fun, and kept us dancing throughout the night!.
Got everyone dancing! Isaac and Jojo were great to work with and pulled together a great set of music for us even though we booked only a few weeks before the wedding.
