I hired Dashing Events for our wedding and he was one of the easiest vendors to work with. Omead provided for us a DJ, Percussionist, lighting, drapery, and Photobooth. I had absolutely no problems with Dashing before the wedding or day of. Omead and his staff are professional, organized, and very easy to work with. The drapery and lighting made the room look so beautiful and the percussionist and DJ kept the party going until the very last minute! Overall I recommend Dashing to everyone I know and they will meet your expectations!!
When planning our wedding, we knew that the most important decision that we will make is our DJ. The DJ can make or break the evening, and Dashing Events did not let us down! Omead was extremely professional and helped us with music choices and timeline. Most importantly, their online planning tool with music options helped us decide on the right songs for each part of the party. And when they didn’t have a song listed, it was no problem for them to make sure it got added to the playlist for the night.
We had DJ Maz for our reception and the addition of the live percussionist (sax and drums) were a huge hit with everyone at the wedding. The dance floor was packed the entire night and every guest let us know how great the energy was on the dance floor. We strongly recommend Dashing Events for your DJ/Lighting/Music needs!
Omead was my DJ and set up the lighting and pipe and draping for my wedding- He was one of our absolute best vendors- so prompt to reply with emails/texts/calls and he surpassed our expectations on the day of- kept everyone on the dance floor! The saxaphonist was also an amazing addition! I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone
The atmosphere due to the lighting was magical and made our not so pretty venue beautiful. These guys were wonderful and very accommodating and fairly priced!
This review is long overdue! Dashing Events is the real deal, they were in charge of lighting and music for my August wedding. From the moment we first started communicating this Dashing Events, through planning and executing our wedding, they're professionals who know exactly what they're doing.
We had the pleasure of working with DJ Omead, as he came highly recommended by a colleague of mine. He was always available to talk and encouraged us and guided us throughout the planning process, he even referred me to our officiant - which turned out to be the greatest person ever!
I was initially incredibly concerned with the music and entertainment as our wedding was incredibly multi-cultural with people from every where in the world and every age range. I needed a DJ that understood that and could read the audience and there was never a quiet moment on the dance floor. He even made the non-Persians dance to Persian music. DJ Omead and Dashing Events exceeded our expectations, they even accommodated a last minute slideshow.
We are grateful that Dashing Events were a part of our wedding, and thankful to have had DJ Omead walk us through the process, it actually felt like him and his company really cared about us.
They have mastered the art of DJ-ing and know how to throw the best parties. I am going to recommend them to all of my engaged friends or anyone who is looking for the best DJs in LA. Affordable, personable, fun - does it get any better?! Thank you, DJ Omead and Dashing Events, for making our big day one to remember and for all the amazing work that you do. We truly are so grateful!
Omead, is wonderful to work with. He did lighting for our wedding at Bel- Air Bay Club and draping. We were so happy with how the room looked. I highly recommend them for your events, you will not regret it!
Dashing event was in charge of my wedding lighting on 08-29-2015. I have a entertainment and AV company as well which has been in business for 24 year. I trust in Dashing Events work so much that out of all the companies that I could've worked with I choosed Dashing Events. They are very good at what they do. Everything was setup hours before my event. My show was so flawless that to date everyone talks about how great everything looked. Omead looked so much into all the details that my photos and videos look so awesome because he choosed colors that worked well with them. If I could've give him more stars I would've. Thank you Omead for making my wedding so awesome and taking charge to run all my visuals and lighting.
Hassle Free!
Beautiful uplighting, great drapery and great communication! Thank you for helping us make this an amazing night!

Dashing events did the lighting for our wedding, we used hanging lanterns, accent lighting, and spots. The lighting made for a great decor alternative and really set the mood. Plus they synced up the accent lights to the music and it really created a lot of energy, but was still pleasant and classy for people who were not dancing.
They were able to understand Exactly what I wanted and executed!! My husband and I were able to take a peek at our hall before dinner began! I couldn't believe the transformation! The draping and up lighting was amazing!! They were able to make that room look so elegant and classy!!! My guest were equally blown away! Pricing was very reasonable! I will Definitely recommend them to my family and friends for upcoming events!
To sum up in Omead's own words: "we're not certified electricians nor claim to be".
I wish I had known this before- I would never have booked them and their "lighting technicians" as a lighting vendor for our wedding.
We used Dashing Events and Omead as our lighting vendor and to do pipe and drape for our wedding.
They may have great reviews as a DJ and Entertainment vendor, but our experience with them was awful.
Their prices are competitive, but we were in the dark on our day.
The lighting was a complete embarrassment and a wedding nightmare.
Omead blamed the constant blown fuses on "lack of adequate power" and "power surges", but Dashing Events did not even test amperage on the house power or the pull from their equipment. The power was never addressed in either the initial walk through or during installation the night before the event.
None of the "technicians" fixed the problem or were able to assist.
Aside from the many lighting issues, we also had issue with the pipe and drape rented from Dashing Events.
We were working with the city for our permit, but apparently it was news to Dashing that the drapes needed to be flame retardant and have proof of certification. Anyone who has worked events in the Los Angeles area knows that is a requirement.
This not only held up our permit process, but then Dashing tried to charge more money for flame retardant drapes- which is what they should have had in the first place.
I will never recommend Dashing Events or Omead and continue to regret ever using them.
We hired services of Dashing Events for our wedding on 2/28/15. D.J. Maha came over all ready to rock and roll. He told me that based on general trends usually only 20-30% of people in the party participate in dance floor :( That would have made only few people on the floor for our party. But I tell you when it was said and done, his choice of music brought everyone to the dance floor. We didn't have a single person sitting around the dinner tables. I was told by everyone who participated (majority of whom where Americans) that they had never been to a party as fun as our wedding. Everyone is asking me for a copy of wedding video and the list of songs played in the party to download and listen. They loved Persian music specially the Bandari ones.
Thank you Thank you Thank you D.J. Maha you are great and you created a memorable night for us even though we had no time prior to the reception to meet with you and discuss what we were looking for. I can't thank you enough. My wife and I are very grateful for the job well done brother.
I strongly recommend D.J. Omead and D.J. Maha for your parties. They did a great job and they are extremely courteous to the customers and want to ensure you are happy no matter what,
Thanks Guys.

My husband and I had a blast at our wedding and one big reason was because we were able to dance the night away with our friends and family. Dashing Events delivered a great MC and DJ. DJ Maha and MC George kept the party going until late late at night. Our guests even commented that they thought we knew them because of the way they spoke about us. I would highly recommend these two at your next big or small event.
I cannot say enough about Dashing events! DJ O was our wedding DJ a couple weeks ago. DJ O is so professional, experienced, and great at gauging the audience and playing music that makes guests happy. One of our guests said " I can't think of one song that I didn't like" And neither could we! He did an amazing job with the lighting as well. (DJ AND LIGHTING?! It's a win-win!) We chose light pink uplights and we were really happy. We were both so relaxed and at ease during knowing that our DJ has everything under control. We were fortunate to have DJ O at my brother's wedding a couple years ago, so we had seen his work and loved him. There was no doubt that he would do a great job and be most reliable. And he went over our expectations. Especially if you are having a Persian-American wedding, he is the only DJ to consider! Worth every penny! Thanks DJ O and Dashing events for an unforgettable night!
The best part about hiring Dashing Events and Omead -- DJO -- is that everyone confirms your decision when they hear your choice :) As soon as I would say he's our DJ, the response invariably was, "Oh, good. He's good!" That was such a relief.
As far as my experience of him for the actual work, DJO is super professional and totally on top of it. He knows everything he needs to know in order to get the job done regardless of how much I knew which was very important for me. We were lucky to have booked him as our very first vendor close to 9 months in advance and could rest easy.
His company is very organized and helps you stay on top of your entertainment. In addition, because he is really good at what he does, we only gave him what we needed for us to have fun, and he could take care of making sure the guests had a great time.
Also, we rented his gorgeous white dance floor and a fog machine. The two made our first dance absolutely magical, and set the tone for the entire evening. The dance floor alone was such a big piece of beauty. His prices for these things were also the best. We put 3 chandeliers over it, too (rented from Star Events Productions), which made it so glamorous.
We hired DJ Omead for our wedding on 11/23/14, and could not have been more pleased with the services he provided - DJ for the ceremony, cocktail hour & reception, announcements to guests, and lighting.
For starters, Omead conducts himself like a professional, and that is refreshing! His presentation of his services in our initial meeting was detailed, accurate and quite impressive. He is extremely organized, efficient and systematic when you meet with him, and doesn't require a lot of follow-up to get things done the right way. Worry free!
Our wedding was half Persian and half American, and Omead struck the perfect balance for the event, which is not an easy task to pull off. He mixed musical genres deftly, and queued the musical changes for our ceremony perfectly. All of our requested songs were mixed in naturally, and he read the crowd and the mood so well in both our cocktail hour and our ceremony.
His percussionist, too, was simply awesome. If you're considering whether it will add something, it absolutely will! In our case, he even provided extra lighting and a guest appearance from a saxophonist, which was above and beyond the call of duty. Everything looked great, and we could not be happier, or recommend Omead and Dashing Events enough.
The MC was definitely the highlight and all my wedding guests kept commenting to me on what a great job he did on the night.
Trying to organize a wedding in another country is not easy (as we live in Australia). Being able to complete our profile and preferences online was fantastic.
We received exceptional service and the professional staff were wonderful to work with! I would HIGHLY recommend Dashing Events to all my family and friends.
Perfect.
Omead and his team at Dashing Events provided the entertainment for our wedding this past June (DJ with live instruments) and he did an incredible job. My wife is Persian and I’m American and we were looking for a DJ who could make sure that both sides of the family, young and old, had a great time.
I remember being impressed with Omead when we first interviewing DJ’s because he broke out his laptop on the spot and showed us how he could take traditional Persian songs and blend them seamlessly into pop hits. He was the consummate professional leading up the event, at the rehearsal, and during the wedding. The real testament to the quality of his work was the fact that the dance floor only emptied when we got kicked out of the room. I highly, highly recommend Dashing Events.
wow!!! Omead was beyond great!!!! He not only was awesome the day of the wedding but he helped me throughout the planning process! I didn't have a wedding planner so he helped me do my timeline and was on the phone with me for over an hour! As we spoke he took notes of EVERYTHING we talked about! The day of the wedding he did the most amazing job ever!!! All of our guests had so much fun but SPECIALLY my husband and I! Best wedding ever!! He also brought a percussionist with him and be made the party that much better!!! Thank you so much Omead!! You helped make our wedding the best day of our lives!!
DJ Omead was the best decision we made in planning our wedding. My husband and I are Coptic Egyptian Americans. Our goal was to have an unforgettable dance party. This was so important that we booked our venue for an additional hour than normal. The party went till 1:00am. DJ Omead was worth every penny. He gave us a party better than we could have imagined.
When we began our search for DJs, we were focused on finding someone who was versatile in a variety of music - from top 40 to the Wobble to Arabic classics and pop. After ten different phone interviews with various disc jockeys, we felt that Dashing Event's DJ Omead was the best fit. He came highly recommended from our friends: "a professional, well reputed, excellent mixer, great MJ, who is able to host multicultural events, with particular strength in Arabic/American music mix". He really fit what we envisioned our entertainment night will be.
It was very easy to work with him, complete our wedding timeline on his website, and select our songs from his online database. His online client portal is amazing - it gave us access to our playlist, which meant we could add songs we wanted as we heard/remembered them, from anywhere, anytime. The portal also has planning tools such as a timeline sheet that is easy to use and thorough. DJ Omead was also open to other suggestions. He accepted a top 30 excel playlist from my husband without any problems and obtained the songs on his own. The week prior to our wedding my husband and I spoke to him on the phone, reviewed the timeline, and answered any remaining questions he had. Overall, the entire planning process was easy, and he was so accommodating, friendly and pleasant.
On our wedding day, our entertainment was simply phenomenal. DJ Omead surprised us, as a gift, and brought a Saxophonist - who was absolutely amazing - a big hit with all of our guests! The music selection was perfect. DJ Omead did not just have 'a playlist', he knew how to gauge and read our guests, and was able to play the right song at the right time to keep our dance floor packed. And it was packed! The whole entire night. We had over 4 hours of straight dancing. People were drenched in sweat. The Saxophonist engaged our guests in a really unique experience. He was jamming alongside our guests in an exhilarating entertainment experience
“That was the most fun wedding I have ever been to!” people told us. JACKPOT! We achieved what we had hoped to do. Wedding receptions get expensive quickly. Little things keeping adding up: table settings, centerpieces, lighting, etc. But what is the thing people really remember about your reception when they wake up the next morning or in five years? It is "The Party." Make sure you don't go with the cheapest option when selecting your DJ. Do your homework. Talk to different DJs. Find the one that fits. And trust in someone who is professional, skilled, experienced, and has delivered an unforgettable dance party, over and over again.
First of all Dashing Events was the nicest vendor I worked with for my wedding. They are kind, professional, and very quick to respond to questions. Not only are they great people, they are reasonably priced. I hired Dashing Events to do lighting for my venue. I asked them for a specific look and they more than delivered. Omead was such an amazing help and drove all the way out to my venue in Malibu just to make sure the lighting would look right for the venue space. The night of the wedding, countless people came up to me to comment on the lighting and many thought it made the ambiance of the night. I have to agree with them, Dashing Events did an amazing job and made my wedding so beautiful!
We booked DJ Omead for our wedding at the Portofino in Redondo Beach 9/19. Omead and his crew (Photobooth, Percussionist) did an amazing job. The music was perfect. We had Iranian and American guests and the mix was just right. All guests were happy and the dance floor was packed all night. And by all night I mean all night. Omead is a very professional guy, from the moment we met him we knew he has everything under control. His proposal, his office, his presentation, the tools for us and guests to use. He always responds right away and goes above and beyond to make your event as successful as possible. We were glad to have picked the percussionist on top of the music, it really gave the night a different vibe. He was energetic, fun and kept the stage alive. Everything was absolutely fabulous!
My wife and I were just married at the end of December 2013. We spent a lot of time researching our vendors, comparing prices, weighing out their quality vs different packages, etc. and our deliberations led us to another small-time DJ. Thank God we ended up with Dashing Events! Omead contacted me and persuaded to re-consider our decision with his professionalism, years of experience, and willingness to cater to our very unique set-up (2 different rooms for the reception playing different music simultaneously & a last minute intro sequence my wife and I came up with). He has an excellent selection of music and allows your to plan your reception with an awesome, easy-to-use online tool. He's also very responsive with any type of communication - I never waited more than 1 day to hear back from him. Our recommendation is that you include him in your planning process from the very beginning. We unfortunately came to him after much of our wedding was already planned so we didn't benefit from his planning resources. Nor were we able to take advantage of his ambiance lighting. Don't make the same mistake.
If you want a DJ to play music, please hire someone else. But if you want a professional who can create a fun, relaxed yet upbeat environment, you will not find any better than DJO.
Where do I even begin? If I could give Dashing Events and DJ O more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat. I live in the San Francisco Area and planning a wedding for 300 guests in Burbank. Not an easy task but DJ Omead made my life insanely easy. Communication was prompt, professional and easy. And when I got wrapped up in other wedding madness, Omead would contact me with reminders and sent me a tool to help me get through the details of the wedding.
The two nights BEFORE the wedding:
We had a teleconference to confirm times, names, songs, etc. When my bridal party made last minute changes, he accommodated them and constantly assured me that everything was going to be great.
The WEDDING DAY:
Where do I begin? A DJ can make or break a wedding.. Omead MADE OUR WEDDING!!!! I have attended a ton of weddings and I have never seen a DJ play such great music with such amazing transitions to keep everyone on the dance floor. Omead and his team were dressed to impress, rolled with all the punches with a smile on their faces, and made sure that my husband and I had a great time. I will never refer another DJ or company than Dashing Events and DJ O.
Our photobooth was awesome! It was compact and great quality :)
AND we were surprised to later find a video that Omead created for us summarizing our amazing day which we didn't know was even happening.
I can't thank DJ Omead and Dashing Events enough for making our day beyond magical. We love you!!!!!
Wow! What an amazing entertainment company! It's strange to refer to him as a 'company' because Omead really truly feels like a friend. He's so personable and kind which is hard to come by in a DJ. He made any adjustment we liked and was able to customize our wedding exactly the way we wanted it. He didn't push any extras for no reason. He was very straight forward and reliable. He also had everyone out on the dance floor all night long. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome, energetic, reliable, kind, and creative entertainment company.
I had the good fortune of meeting the love of my life, and the privilege of marrying her in May, 2014.
We started planning back in November and according to so many timelines I found on the net, had seven months to do a twelve month job. To me it appeared that the big items that needed to be taken care of we're hiring a caterer, photographer, entertainment, florist and finding a venue.
With limited time we hit the ground running and after meeting with a handful of DJs came across Dashing Events and DJ Omead (DJO). Given all the prior meeting I had, I knew exactly what to look for and DJO met all of my needs.
The most significant traits about DJO that I noticed was his integrity, responsiveness, non-aggressiveness, all of which is rare in DJs. Omead was beyond helpful, always available and was very consultitative.
Now, on to the wedding. DJO knows how to throw a party! He read the crowd perfectly and was able to adjust our pre planned timeline to suit the audience, ensuring everyone had a blast. It's only been a few months since my special day, but I've received numerous compliments about our entertainment.
One last note about the Dashing Events and DJO, he has a slew of services available, from a singer, violinist, percussionist to photo booth to lighting...he can fulfill a lot of your wedding needs all under on roof.
I cannot say enough about Omead. Trust me...just go with him, you'll be EXTREMELY SATISFIED!
We initially hired Dashing Events for our wedding entertainment, but honestly they went above and beyond all our expectations. Omead, from Dashing Events, helped us with virtually everything from the floor plan and room ambiance to helping us decide when to make the grand entrance and dinner time. Omead was very honest and fair - having steered us away from unnecessary services, though he would made more money. I can’t say enough about his musicians and music selection – there were so many people dancing that we ran out of room on the dance floor and people started dancing around their tables. Dashing Events was easy to reach – even at 11 at night and always punctual. After our wedding, we received so many positive comments about the music and lighting that it really would have been a disservice if I didn't write about my experience with Dashing Events.
Omead was very understanding with our requests and our tight budget. He replied to every one of my emails promptly. Dashing Events is probably the most reasonably priced company for the services they offer. We contracted them for string lighting and tree uplighting for our outdoor venue. Their pricing was so fair we later decided we would be able to add a photobooth.
The actual wedding day, everything was set up perfectly and our venue looked beautiful. Our guests had a blast with the photobooth and we now have lots of fun pictures to add to our album. Plus, the photobooth attendant was very friendly and professional.
We are very happy with Dashing Events and highly recommend them!
where shall I begin?
Price: very competitive, best I could find for a persian DJ who was well versed with Persian, English, and Hispanic.
Music: my guests couldn't stop dancing. In fact we began dancing early and had to rearrange our timeline because the crowd started dancing without our que (just goes to show you how good the music is!!)
Availability: Very attentive and respond back to multiple emails, texts, and calls in a fashionable time frame. Also, coordinates everything with you a week before to give you final details
Sound quality: superb!! I also had them do my ceremony sound and their wireless mic was great (though I think the mic stand should have come with the setup- but i got one from my location no charge).
Energy: OH MAN. DJ Maha is legit! and don't even get me started on MC Tehran. Boy that man can energize a crowd. Did you know he is a stand up comedian? I didn't but I def saw why he has his own TV show. Legit.
They help you with things that should normally be done by the event location/coordinator.
What's best is that though we were supposed to end at 11, they spun till 1120 without charging me extra! I didn't even have to ask, they offered because they were having fun at my wedding, which is great because it really was an enjoyable night.
And as weddings go, everything goes wrong that day. Embrace it. but having a DJ/MC like mine who can adjust and rearrange things last minute is key. haha. They coordinated everything beautifully and made sure that we had all of the key events before our photographer left.
Overall, I would recommend this company 11 out of 10 times. They were up to my standards and let me tell you that's no easy feet. I am a medical resident, type A personality person who gets things done my way or its the highway. no joke they were understanding before, during, and after the event. 120% if that is humanly possible.
Way to go DJ Maha, MC Tehran, and DJ Omead. You guys made my night one that no one will forget. I have nothing but my deepest thanks to you all.
Cheers!
We had such an amazing time at our wedding and it was thanks to DashingEvents! They not only did they livened up the crowd with great music and sound system, but they made our wedding top notch with up lights, pinspots, percussionists, violinists, MC, and photobooth! On top of that, Omead made great suggestions regarding the flow of the wedding which we never even thought about while we were planning the event. He and the MC that was hired through DashingEvents helped us keep to the timeline on our wedding day! I can't thank dashing events enough!! They are worth every penny and made the night!
Dashing Events provided an amazing service for our Iranian/American wedding on May 31, 2014. We hired DJ Omead, he was the best, played the right songs and did a fantastic job with the lighting. Our guests were so impressed with the combination of DJ and the live musicians (saxophone and violinist). There was so much energy and we literally had to ask our guests to leave the dance floor at the end of the night. Even though it was a little pricy, this was without a doubt one of the best investments for our wedding, the more services we bought from them the more discounts we got. Omead even made us a complimentary photo montage, it was beautiful and a great entertainment during dinner, highly recommended. We also hired Dashing Events to provide our lighting and décor, we got purple up-lights which was beautiful, I really recommend their new crystal columns that just transform the room. We hired them for the cinematography as well, I haven't received the videos yet, I'll let you know how they will turn out.
Dashing Events provided excellent, professional service for my wedding. Omead, the event director, was extremely helpful and provided great suggestions!
DJ Omead was beyond amazing! From the beginning we wanted him to dj at our wedding because of how he was super responsive, prompt, and organized! Before the wedding day my aunt contacted him to ask him to play a specific song during her speech as a part of a special surprise performance, he worked with her to make sure that her surprise was properly executed. My husband also worked with him without my knowledge and he was able to help him plan the BEST surprise performance ever. Dj O was much more than a dj at our wedding, he was truly genuine & helpful to the point where we felt like he was our friend (even though we'd just met him). One thing I CANNOT forget to mention is the SAXOPHONIST at our wedding! EVERYONE WONT STOP RANTING AND RAVING ABOUT HIM TILL TODAY! He was beyond amazing! The percussionist was excellent as well. Everyone LOVED the photobooth & all the props, and had so much fun taking pictures! The spot lighting on our flowers was perfect and made them look AMAZING in pictures. SO WELL WORTH IT! Overall, Dj O had people on the dance floor all night & everyone loved every song that played as he catered to our guests! THANK YOU DJ O & DASHING EVENTS :)

DJ O and his team at Dashing Events was absolutely incredible. He kept my wedding recpetion fun and entertaining from start to finish! Guests could not rave enough about how he made the party amazing!
DJ O was incredibly easy to contact and avaialble through email, phone and in person. He is young, into the music scene and well connected to all types of music genres. He is incredibly professional, kind and fun to interact with! He did an excellent job shifting genres and mixing music to please the crowd throughout the night. That type of talent and versatility in a DJ is extremely difficult to find and speaks volumes of his talent!
I highly recommend DJ O and dashing Events for any bride that is looking for an amazing party!!!
Hands down the best DJ ever!!! DJ Omead dj-ed my graduation party eight years ago and our wedding last week! He is incredibly talented and is well-versed in many genres of music. He is also excellent at listening to what the bride and groom want and feeling the crowd such that he selects the best songs based on the guests' vibe. DJ Omead and his staff are genuinely nice people who have the same goal as their customers-to make sure all the guests have the best time ever and that guests continue to talk about how much fun they had at the wedding far after its over.His online forms are also very easy to work with and he doesn't waste your time with unnecessary meetings. He is highly efficient. He also had a percussionist and saxophone player come to our wedding and everyone loved that extra touch!!!
Overall, he and his crew are the greatest DJs and my husband and I will definitely be asking them to DJ all of our future parties.

DJ O was the best! He managed to keep my highly diverse guests entertained and on the dance floor the whole night. He just knew what songs to play when to keep the energy going and he kept the right balance of the different cultures represented at my wedding. He was a pleasure to work with, was priced reasonably and provided excellent service throughout the entire process. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend DJ O for any event!
Dashing Events did the lighting for our wedding. Everything about the experience was top notch!
The lights looked beautiful, which was most important! But a close second was how professional and responsive Omead was. Of all the vendors we dealt with he and one other were the easiest, most timely, and professional to work with. I would recommend their services to anyone!
The photos he has on his website of the lighting work don't do the lighting work justice. Everything looks so much prettier and more elegant in person!
Omead patiently worked with us as we changed our wedding date and then changed our minds repeatedly over the details of what we did and didn't want for our lighting. At one point, he came and met us at our rentals warehouse, so that he could show us exactly how the lights would look against the drapes we had selected. And, he did so with a smile and in a way that made it seem like we were doing him a favor and not the other way around. He is truly a gentleman and I could not recommend his services more highly!
It has been noted that word of mouth referrals are the best referrals because the individual giving the referral is basing his/her opinion off of personal experience, hence speaking the truth without any ulterior motives. At this time, we would like to extend our personal feedback based on our experience and others’ comments regarding Dashing Events and DJ Omead.
From our first interaction with you until the day of the event, we were attracted by the quality and consistency of their excellent customer service. Indeed DJ Omead made the customer feel right at all times (even when his professional opinion was thwarted for the sake of seeing someone else happy). He was trustworthy, integral, and safe to work with professionally. He did exceedingly beyond what we had imagined, requested, and considered possible.
The quality of their service was exceptional. DJ Omead was pleasant to work with and created an atmosphere of warmth, comfort, and fun regarding the process in its entirety. Despite time delays presented by members of our team, DJ Omead and the staff of professionals at Dashing Events were able to quickly improvise. Talent integrated with creativity and passion for their job is the exactly what we needed for our magical event. DJ Omead was flexible and sensitive to our financial and cultural needs, willing to collaborate with us in order to create a night of remembrance that will forever remain in our memories.
Days and weeks following our event, we received a number of calls inquiring about their services. It appears that Dashing Events not only impressed us but the majority of our guests. Please know that they will definitely be our number one choice for future events and we will continue to speak the truth about our experience with Dashing Events.
Our deepest gratitude is extended for the exceptional job they offered- romantic, enjoyable, and overall phenomenal entertainment.
Although I am Persian, my husband is American and since we live here, our guests were 90% American. DJ O was able to mix it up between oldies, Persian, Arabic, Spanish, top 40s, hip hop and rock (all per our request) so that every one of our guests had danced their butts off. All night I had guests coming up to me saying, "where did you find this DJ, he's amazing!" Also, he was able to switch up the vibes on the spot instead of having a regimented routine. For example, if guests didn't seem lively to a song, he would quickly change it and prompt guests to come up front. Also, when I wasn't yet up for my father daughter dance and needed another 10 minutes, he was able to adjust his playlist right on the spot for me! Dj O was not just an amazing DJ and MC at our wedding, but he also set up purple uplighting to look flawless and stunning at our venue! I 100% recommend Dashing Events!
DJ O was a pleasure to work with!! He is super professional, and very easy to work with. He did our music for the entire wedding (acoustic guitar for guest arrival, DJ for ceremony and cocktail hour, and DJ plus 3 musicians for the reception) in addition to all of our lighting. He did not try to push additional products and was great about keeping within our budget.
We had a percussionist, violinist, and saxophonist accompany DJ O for the reception and it was the best decision we made. The musicians came out on the dance floor and interacted with our guests. It got everyone up on the dance floor and kept people engaged! He played the perfect mix of music for our wedding, as our families are different cultures.
I could not have been more pleased with Dashing Events -- use them!!!
We were a little weary of going with a persian DJ, but our minds were put at ease after meeting DJ O. Although a large number of our guests were persian, my wife and I wouldn't have been able to dance the night away to persian music only. We needed a DJ who would do a good mix of american pop, persian, as well as argentinian tangos and cumbias. To make things more complicated, the groom DJed in the club and rave scene for several years and needed a DJ who knew how to actually mix. No simple crossfading allowed!
DJ O nailed it across the board. The mix of genres was solid. We were worried he was going to stick to the crowd pleasing traditional music, but as our family slowly left, the beat picked up. He kept us on the dance floor to 1am with a great mix of today's hip hop and pop, our favorites from high school, argentine cumbias, spice girls, michael jackson, and was even able to drop a DubStep track of mine at the end.
If anything, it took a bit of work to convince him to get the uplight color we wanted. On the other hand, we're glad he pushed to get 10-15 minute of dancing in before dinner like he wanted. It started the party with high energy that lasted throughout the night.
With any other DJ either my family wouldn't have been pleased, or the party would have died out when they left. DJ O was able to please everyone and kept the dance floor busy until 1am. Had we paid for more time at the hotel, he would have kept us going!
DJ Omead made our wedding. In addition to his DJ services, we had up lighting, pin spots, a white dance floor and percussionist through Dashing Events. I was planning my wedding from a different country and DJ O was so patient with me. I knew his skills were good by his work at weddings I had attended. Our guests didn't even want to leave the dance floor for dinner. Everyone at the wedding raved about how beautiful the lighting was and how great the music was. Definitely go with Dashing Events, they are professional, skilled, and so great to work with!
We chose Dashing Events for our wedding reception based on the good online reviews and a positive impression we got meeting DJ Omead for the first time. It turned out to be one of the best decisions we made for our event.
In addition to being extremely professional and experienced, Omead is friendly and very accommodating. He patiently worked with us to create a playlist that fit a wide group of guests of different ages and ethnicities.
Their online tool was quite useful with picking the right songs for the right moment.
Overall, Dashings events was one of the main factors that made our event successful and memorable. Highly recommended!
Omead was by far the nicest, most professional, and most knowledgeable DJ I had spoken to during my wedding planning process. My husband and I are so grateful that we chose him! We weren't the easiest to work with, considering the fact that we needed Afghan, Arabic, Persian, American and Dance music and hardly gave him any song recommendations. He slowly got an idea of what I wanted and threw the perfect entertainment for our wedding! We are in San Diego and he didn't hesitate once to drive 3-4 hours during Carmageddon in the LA area. As a DJ, he even made sure things were coordinated just as I wanted and things were planned out perfectly! I would recommend Omead to ANY couple out there!! We got married a week ago and STILL have people telling us what a great DJ we had at our wedding!
Dj Omead was fantastic. We wanted someone who could play an eclectic mix of music (80's pop, r&b, classic rock, Farsi, Spanish, Hebrew etc..) and blend it into the perfect mix to keep the party going all night. Dj Omead went above and beyond my expectations. He even had a website so we can pre- plan our list of music and fit everthing into a timeline of when he was to play what.
We definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone who is looking to get a party started and rockin all night. If you ask me....after planning a wedding recently the 3 most important vendors in your wedding should be ... #1. food #2. The D.J. (without music & entertainment the party is incomplete) & lastly a professional photographer to capture your love, joy, precious moments and the beginning of your lives together! Thanks Dj Omead for a fantastic time with your professional services. We will be seeing you again real soon for more events!
DJ O was amazing! He made things very easy. He called before the wedding and made sure he knew what I wanted- He also made a lot of great suggestions that would make the day go smoother- which totally helped. He told me not to worry the day of the wedding because he would be directing the whole thing, which he did! :) His lighting work was also fantastic. I would definately recommend him again!
We found Omead because he'd done a wedding for a friend of ours and we thought he was wonderful.
He knew exactly what we were looking for and arranged for even last minute changes with ease - including the need for more microphones and different music last minute.
We had lighting, two DJ's, and two musicians and he had everything flawlessly scheduled. Amazing job.
DJ Omead is fabulous!! He is not only an outstanding DJ, but a GREAT person!! From start to finish, he was a terrific help and so professional! He totally worked within our budget and provided us plenty of time and energy to plan out the exact music we wanted for our big day! He made great recommendations and perfect music choices to keep our dance floor packed! He checked in with us at our wedding just to provide that personal connection to his job and our special night with our families! He played the perfect mix of Jewish traditional music that our parents wanted to hear and the fun dance music that we love to party to!! And he knew just when to play them! The lights we had him set up we're the perfect touch to set the mood in the ballroom! He arrived early to set up and maintained a great vibe for the entire evening!! He has been in contact with us ever since the wedding and we would highly recommend him to any of our friends!! DJ Omead is more than a DJ- he is a friend you can trust!
BEST DJ experience EVER! DJ Omead of Dashing Events is truly a professional. He has an online database and creates a login for each of his clients, who then sign in to make a list of all their song requests, do-not-play song requests, and special songs that accompany your wedding timeline. He called us a week before the wedding to review every detail and even make sure he had all the name pronunciations correct!
The day of the wedding he was on-time, organized, and followed every request we had made. He is very well-rounded in terms of music selections and can play just about anything you want. He accommodated our music preferences perfectly, since wanted a good mix of modern, Persian, Salsa, jazz, Arabic, and Indian. He played it all, and all our guests love him. Guests of all ages never left the dance floor. Their prices are very reasonable, and DJ Omead is so friendly, kind and patient! You won't regret booking with Dashing Events!
My husband and I were married almost a month ago and I am still getting compliments as to how great my DJ/MC was! DJO really livened up the party, not to mention his on-point MC skills - he knew just when to announce and made sure everyone was having a good time by playing to the crowd! Looking back at our photos and videos, it is proven that people were up and dancing the entire wedding - which as a bride, is great! It really showed how much everybody enjoyed our wedding, and much of this credit is given to DJO! He is wonderful to work with and very professional! I have been to my share of weddings and the entertainment is so important. WIth that said, DJO's experience and skills in this field cannot be matched! Thanks again DJO for helping make our special night even more special! =)
Loghting color was not correct...we asked for purple....we got red. we voiced our cncerns to Omead and he was quick to respond. His cusomer sevice was excellent.
DJO was amazing. He read the crowd well and played what people wanted to hear. He used all the songs we asked for and none we asked him not to play. An awesome DJ. He also did our lighting!
Great music selection, he did a great job on the lighting for our event. The only thing I would say he could improve on is encouraging more ppl to come out to the dance floor. I def recommend him!
DJ O was very professional and organized. He played great music and had us dancing all night. He was very reasonable and worked with us. Didn't have to worry about anything with him!
My wife and I were married August 2010, and DJ O was the DJ. He was great at choosing and mixing the right tracks and had a great sense of music and reading the crowd. He was also very open to our own preferences, and his experience showed in that he was always asking the most important and relevant questions. In short, my opinion is that once you have hired DJ O, you do not have to think or worry about anything related to the celebration part of your wedding, he is on the ball for everything related to sound, music, MC'ing, equipment, and if you so choose, lighting as well.
He is very new to the business and as such is very reasonable with his rates. He was easy to work with in that he did not get offended when I sent him a song list. He happily agreed to only play the songs listed. He also kept EVERYONE on the dance floor the entire night.;Make sure you double and triple check with him regarding important aspects of the reception. Even though I told him repeatedly which song to play for our first dance, he played a different song. He also didn't play all the songs that were 'must play'. Being that he is fairly new, he seemed very frazzled and stressed at times.
