Dave Mancini - MC/DJ

d we appreciated that he did not require any re-booking fees and was there to support us with any decisions we made. Flash-forward to one month before our wedding and we had to change venues. It was very stressful, but Dave was there to give some recommendations for new venues which we appreciated so much! We ended up going with a venue which was used to having its own vendors which presented more challenges for Dave, but if there was anything that went awry, we didn't know. The night was amazing! Dave used some of our personal stories to make connections to our guests. One friend even asked if Dave was a family friend because it seemed like he had known us so well. Dave also got the whole group of about 100 guests up and dancing almost immediately! He played all the types of music we requested and overall was an amazing MC at a very fair price. We thank Dave so so much for helping us finally have the dream wedding we've wanted for 2 years!

mmodating and flexible from the very beginning. Even when our venue told us they couldn't host our wedding only 2 and a half months away, Dave was open to traveling for us. Having a destination-style wedding in Vegas meant that there were a lot more moving parts compared to the all-inclusive venue we had before. Dave was like our team leader, and really played a role in bringing cohesiveness amongst all our vendors. Also, since we had a wedding during the pandemic in Vegas, dancefloors were not allowed. We wanted our guests to still be entertained, so we decided to have a fun game night! This was no problem for Dave. He presented us with a ton of ideas for games to play with our families,  such as the "Shoe-lywed Game," The Not-So-Newlywed game, and a scavenger hunt (just to name a few.) Our friends and family had a blast, and every guest we've seen since keeps telling us it was some of the MOST fun they've ever had at a wedding. They didn't miss a dancefloor at all. Not to say we didn't get to dance a little bit. Aside from the first dances, he was still able to come up with a way to distance our guests in a large circle around the room for a last group dance! It was such an epic way to close our big day. If you are looking for a vendor who is communicative and creative, then look no further. Thank you, Dave, for the best day we have ever had!

sure that everything the day of went off without a hitch, from making sure everything started on time, to making sure we were fed and hydrated. I highly recommend Dave, he was professional, informative, friendly, and most importantly, fun!

CRUCIAL. He can get every last guest on your dance floor effortlessly and get every guest involved in your events which makes for fun photos and unforgettable memories. My coworker, who goes to tons of weddings, said she’d never seen so many tables empty because our guests were up and having a great time. Dave spent the time getting to know us and our two very cultural families (Mexican and Egyptian), so that his MC work was flawless and the music mix was a balance of both cultures, just like he was a part of our family. Dave didn’t just show up to play music, he helped us plan and execute our timeline just as we imagined it and did so much more. This was our 3rd attempt at a wedding date during COVID-19 and each time we had to shift gears Dave was supporting us every step of the way; he responded to our emails within the hour and they were at length which made us feel like we weren’t in this alone. He gave us insights on how other weddings were going so we could have hope and plan accordingly. We ended up getting married in a garden estate 2 hours away from our original destination but during the planning stages, Dave made a special trip to tour with us to anticipate setup needs and plan for the worst-case scenario whilst incorporating COVID-19 precautions for our speakers. We literally planned for a 90 degree weather day for months...and it ultimately RAINED. My husband and I pulled the plug on an outdoor wedding within 24 hours prior and we had to resort to PLAN C [indoor] and Dave switched up without a hiccup! Dave assured us he had everything already handled for PLAN C. Dave worked hand-in-hand with our other vendors, and family, and took it upon himself to ensure everything ran on time and SMOOTHLY. Our wedding was PERFECT, my husband and I had the time of our lives, our guests had a blast which was super important to us, and we still hear from family about how much fun they had (they are begging for video/photos). :) Dave LOVES what he does; he is truly passionate about his work in this industry and it was evident through and through until even after the wedding. Dave WILL exceed your expectations and you’ll be glad you picked Dave for the day you’ve been long awaiting. My credibility: I am a healthcare professional working in quality assurance and emergency disaster response; therefore, I know good people and organized/dependable professionals when I work with them. I am a salsa dancer and love a good dance party! I've been in band for 12 years, Marching Band for 4, therefore, music is a huge part of my life and I'm very critical of music selections, transitions, and a strong believer in the emotional power of music, which Dave understood well because he also has a musical background. :)

d ever ask, and on top of all that, he did a great job DJing! Our only regret is that we can’t give him more than 5 stars.

e whole night flowed seamlessly from our introduction to the last dance. The up lighting he put throughout our space added the perfect touch and brought everything together. I couldn’t be happier with everything Dave did. He is amazing! Thank you so much!

was so much fun. I didn't have to worry about anything except marrying the love of my life. I highly recommend Dave if you would like your special day to go off without a hitch!

y agreed that Dave was such a great DJ and got the whole crowd dancing. When working with Dave for my own wedding, he was always professional, communicative and prepared for everything. Dave always took the time to answer any questions or concerns we had. My fiancé and I had our venue cancelled due to COVID-19 and Dave always stayed in constant communication and made sure to give us different options in case we decided to have a backyard wedding. I highly recommend Dave to anyone who is planning to have a wedding. If you are looking for a professional, communicative, outgoing person, HIRE DAVE!

very accommodating especially during the current Covid-19 situation. My wife and I had our venue cancelled within a month of our wedding and we were able to find a new venue and Dave met with us and helped recreate our contract and our plans for the wedding to make it the perfect day. Dave went above and beyond to help us be organized with a schedule for our wedding and worked with our caterers and photographer to make sure everything went smoothly. He also helped at our rehearsal dinner because we no longer had a wedding coordinator and he knew we needed help to know what we needed to do and helped with the whole process. On our wedding day Dave came early in plenty of time to set up his equipment and made sure we had everything we needed. On our wedding day it was extremely hot and one of Dave's computers had overheated but he was able to quickly transition to his back up and have everything running perfectly and no one noticed. After our ceremony Dave was also making sure to keep everything running smoothly and on time. My wife and I were in the front of our venue taking pictures and our guests and dave were at the reception in the back. Dave had come out front and ensured we had plenty of water do to the heat and he also met with our caterer and showed them where they needed to be so my wife and I could focus on getting our pictures done. Dave had also helped with our gift table and our guest book that were located next to him and ensured everything was where it needed to be. Daves personality and professionalism were above anything we could have asked for and we would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a DJ/MC for their wedding, because he truly makes the day a special day and makes it perfect in every way!

treats even the smallest of party with the same integrity and care as he would with a big extravagant wedding. Everyone had such an amazing time and he was able to get people dancing who I never thought would go up. I would highly recommend Dave for any of your event needs and will definitely use him again in the future!

nd in a difficult situation and his understanding and caring ways really helped us get through a tough time. He communicates clearly and leaves no stone unturned. He is very detail oriented and wants to ensure that your day goes perfectly. If you are looking for a professional, kind and honest vendor, I highly recommend him!

great deal of effort to make our wedding ceremony match our story and our personality. The ceremony was really fun, he got everyone dancing all night. The party kept moving and it felt like we got everything done without the party slowing down. I just could not stop smiling. He managed to get all the songs we wanted in the party and that was amazing considering the variety of genres we were asking for. You simply could not get a better, honest, warm, professional and caring person to help you with the planning of your event. If you do not already have an officiant, he is a wonderful option. All you need to do is meet him and you will see what I mean. Could not say enough wonderful things about him and his team. Worth everything you spend on him and he will give you the same care no matter your budget

ave, he took a genuine interest in getting to know us and our story so that he could represent us well at our wedding. He was extremely organized and talked us through his process, even showing us examples of wedding day timelines and choices of genres for music. He was super helpful with recommending equipment and setup without pushing extra services. And then he was the first (and one of the only) vendors to reach out to us after COVID-19 was in full effect to make sure we were okay and to see if there was anything he could do for us. We hope in the future that we get to use Dave and would highly recommend him to anyone.

e! He was a great MC at our wedding. We had about 240 guests at our wedding and he entertained all of us! He had an eye and ear for attention to detail and helped create the best moments we remember about our wedding night! He wanted to get to know us so he can customize his sets to suit us and our wedding guests. Through out this entire year’s process, I would text, call or email him and he would always have a fastest response time. Planning a wedding is already stressful, but when you have Dave who plays more roles than a DJ/MC you can put your mind at ease! Dave, we cannot thank you enough for being one of our best and FAVORITE vendors to work with. I highly recommend Dave!

sional from start to finish. We have since seen him at a few other weddings this past year and we noticed that his methods to keep the wedding reception going from start to finish all while keeping the guests energy up, is so totally worth it. I do not thing a single guess left our wedding reception early cause they had so much fun and that is all thanks to Dave!

ience in the wedding industry helped by giving us recommendations and answering every question we had, even if it meant he had to find the answer himself. He also accommodated us with a projector and screen to show our ceremony video. Dave is all around an amazing and skilled MC/DJ and we are forever grateful he made our celebration one of a kind.

r folks we met with, so much so that as soon as we found ourselves with him, we immediately stopped the search. He took the time and put in the effort to get to know us. (Even our kitties loved him!) Leading up to the wedding, and the day-of, everything went so perfect with Dave. We trusted him 1000% without a single hesitation, and with no surprise, he made everything go absolutely fantastic! Our wedding guests had a total blast with him and even our other vendors have said time after time how amazing and fun it was to work alongside him. Dave has been a true gem in our lives and someone we do not call a "vendor" but a friend who helped make our big day/night absolutely magical.

ne dancing right away, all ages groups and kept everyone there until the very end! When we left we were shocked at how many people stayed the whole time. His personality is fun and relatable, his music choices reflected us as a couple and he made sure to play music all ages groups would like. Dave was my favorite vendor to deal with prior to our big day too. His response times to emails and text was so quick. He always offered advice and/ or solutions and was just a pleasure to deal with. I cannot recommend him enough!

ll of great suggestions when it comes to the timeline, wedding traditions, and music selection. He played all our favorite songs and ensured it was the best night of our life!!! He is attentive, responsive, and professional. We are so thankful that Dave was part of our wedding!!

ons with songs and genres that everyone likes and crafted the perfect playlist. While working with him before the wedding he was able to provide a timeline of the night from his previous events and from what we had communicated to him were our priorities and ideas. To be honest I was skeptical at the timeline early on, but as we firmed up things with other vendors (like the wait staff, photographers, baker, etc.) my faith in his handiwork grew. By the end of the night I was floored at how smooth everything went. Not only were all of the events well organized, but he knew exactly how long would be good for each of them. When it came time for everyone to dance and have a good time, his infectious joyfulness spread out and got more than a few people dancing that I didn’t expect to! And his ability to analyze the room and know what was necessary to make it look and sound good is also impeccable. The sound was perfect from everywhere in the garden, it wasn’t too loud or soft anywhere. And his placement of the uplights brought a fun, bright touch to the area once the sun set.

wedding. Dave made the entire day of the wedding run smoothly and once dinner was over our dance floor remained packed the rest of the evening! It was the best day of our lives and Dave helped to make it perfect!"

mber of the Italian Family household! Guests were brought together and delighted by his music and demeanor. We are so grateful he was a part of our special day!

responsiveness and enthusiasm that he was going to be so great and easy to work with. In our meetings with Dave, he not only wanted to know what kind of music we liked, but he wanted to make sure he had a good sense of who we were as people, and as a couple. He also got to know about our families through conversation, and by doing so, he fit in seamlessly as a good friend at our wedding. When we were stuck choosing a song for a specific moment, Dave’s suggestions and recommendations were so greatly appreciated. I may be biased, but our wedding was SO MUCH FUN and many people, including myself, never stopped dancing. Truly so grateful to have had someone like Dave, who is so passionate about what he does, help make our big day absolutely perfect. Can’t thank you enough, Dave!!

love songs reminded them of good memories from yesteryears. Thank you for playing them at the right time. More importantly, you were able to get everyone to dance including my aunts and uncles (that was awesome!). During the dancing session, you played one of my favorite remixes, "I just want to use your love tonight". I can feel my heart beating to the bass of the song (that was so cool). So if you are looking for an MC that will get everyone to dance, then Dave is your guy. If you are looking for a DJ that will play your favorite songs at the right time, then Dave is your guy.

on communication with the venue, wedding coordinator, and wedding party. He wanted to make sure everything was perfect, which it was. I would highly recommend Dave to anyone who needs MC services. He’s your guy. I hope our paths cross again. 5 million stars.

was perfect for the day of. We had a very big wedding and he managed to get 150 people on the dance floor and dancing. He was attentive and responded quickly to texts and emails! I think he was the reason why everyone had such a good time! Please don’t ever hesitate to use Dave! He is amazing and we are still receiving texts saying how awesome the wedding was thanks to the dj! Thanks Dave!

that it was the best reception they’ve attended, and we couldn’t agree more! Our idea was to have a large party to celebrate our wedding, and that is exactly what we ended up with, thanks to Dave! He got everyone involved and kept the dance floor packed all night. Highly recommended!

was amazing with helping us pick our songs and make our timeline. He worked great with our other vendors and exceeded expectations. Come wedding day he went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and so my husband and I wouldn't have to worry about anything. We got so many complements on how great Dave was and how he made everything flow so smoothly. He was worth way more than he charged and was definitely one of the best decisions that we made.

ll knew we would work well together. A few weeks prior to the wedding we met again and Dave helped us make a seamless schedule and select our favorite songs and collaborated on ideas to make the evening memorable. During the wedding he did an absolutely FANTASTIC job! He packed the dance floor with music that pleased the guests of all ages. He directed guests attention to certain events when necessary but other than that he let them dance their hearts out. Dave is fun to work with, is extremely responsive, and professional. I’m still getting complements from our guests and vendors about the great job he did :)

ave! Every single one of our guests were out of their seats dancing all night long!! Multiple guests asked who he was & complimented how great he did! So THANK YOU DAVE FOR MAKING OUR DREAM WEDDING BECOME A REALITY! You’re the best!

w Dave had everything under control. Seriously, those were the only things we never had to worry about! We had several issues the day of our wedding, and fortunately we could breathe a sigh of relief once the reception was underway because Dave just had it covered. So many people told us we had the most fun wedding they've ever been to, and I can put that down to Dave. Dave handled a super logistically challenging wedding for us! He traveled all the way down to Temecula to meet with our venue months ahead of time (unless a DJ was already on our venue's DJ list, they required that). He handled the sound for the ceremony (in one outdoor location), the cocktail party (in an adjacent, but separate outdoor location), and the reception (in yet another indoor/outdoor location about a 5-minute walk away). And he did the most gorgeous uplighting at our reception, highlighting the vineyard and flowers outside where we ate and danced, and making the barrel room where we cut the cake and had our bar look gorgeous. We wanted to incorporate little twists on lots of traditions, so Dave helped advise us on how to make these elements work, and completely helped us plan the flow of events in our reception (and we had a wedding coordinator, he worked with her seamlessly). He even found this random old NFL jingle from the 90's my husband wanted to play as he did the garter toss (using a football to hold the garter)! And he found a way to incorporate some of my awful (but beloved!) song requests without killing the vibe of the party by playing them during our selfie dance (which he suggested to help us get one-on-one time with our guests). Our wedding day was a total BLAST! Everyone had so much fun and loved Dave! And we still had well over 100 people there (out of 135 guests) at the end of the night, outside in the cold, on a Sunday, 2 hours away from Los Angeles (where most of our guests live), totally rocking out. One of our engaged guests immediately wanted to book Dave after our wedding! He is more than a DJ/MC, he is like another wedding planner (he gave us so many vendor ideas, and so many solutions for problems that came up). Seriously, I can't recommend him enough.

our crowd and picked music based on what they were partying the hardest to. Our dancefloor was packed for the entire night and he was able to even get our older crowd out onto the dancefloor. The music timing on our ceremony was perfect and he was so into every little detail we fit into our wedding. I definitely felt like we were his only priority any time we emailed or had questions they were answered quickly. You will not be disappointed. We received comments all night about how amazing he was and how much they enjoyed him. I said something to Dave at our first meeting that nothing will clear a dancefloor faster than a bad DJ. He will keep your dancefloor packed and partying through the night. We love you Dave! Thank you for making our day so special.

ages designed specifically for our venue - including uplights which were a total bonus. Next, he took the time to talk about our vision for the special day. He tailored his services to us based on our backgrounds and our unique relationship. He had tons of tips to help guide our song selections and also helped us integrate our more specialized choices (Danger Zone and Disturbed's "Your Mine" among others). He provided us with a schedule that acted as a backbone for the evening-which helped not only us but helped the venue and our photographer plan as well. The day of the wedding itself was where Dave outdid all of our expectations. Not only did he make sure we were where we needed to be for the events of the reception, but he successfully got all of our guests up, dancing and having a great time! We could sit back and enjoy our wedding carefree, trusting that Dave had the details handled. He let the night get weird, and followed boldly instead of trying to lead our wedding party away from soulfully belting Bohemian Rhapsody. He was integral in translating the fun we felt as a couple to our guests, making it the memorable night we had always hoped it would be. Dave surpassed all of our expectations, and was like an old friend by the day of the wedding. I would highly recommend him to future couples looking to have a fun reception!

r made. Dave was patient, he listened to the bride and groom & the family's musical wants for the wedding and had invaluable input concerning the time line for the wedding. He has a professional demeanor & caring personality, which was very much appreciated. Our daughter, son-in-law and our whole family was very impressed with Dave's musical talent to keep the party going, and you will not be disappointed if you hire Dave as your DJ/MC!

commend Dave for all your event needs. Great job Dave and thanks for making our special night even more memorable.

ty fun, heartfelt and memorable.. He got everyone up and dancing and everyone kept telling us how much fun they had! And we had guests as young us 3 and family of all ages. Thank you Dave for making our day the best day ever!!! Love Andrew and Amy Redding

of the rooms at the venue including ceremony music, reception, cocktail hour and even uplighting! We had several planning meetings with Dave and he perfectly understood our vision! We so enjoyed working with Dave in picking out the perfect songs for all of our special moments during the wedding day! He got all of our (shy) guests onto the dance floor and kept them going the whole night! We loved his music choice for dancing and how he made the guests feel so included in our love story. He perfectly kept to our timeline for the night and made sure we were comfortable the whole way through! I have received multiple compliments from our guests on how great they thought Dave was! He even captured some great pictures of all of the festivities! We really enjoyed getting to know Dave and using him for our wedding and would highly recommend him for your wedding! Love, The Rossie's

en we weren't sure which songs to use. Dave supplied the lighting for the reception. He took down contact info. for my vendors and supplied them all with a timeline for the day, so we were all on the same page. He kept the entire event running smoothly and on schedule. He was right on que during the ceremony. And kept all the guests engaged throughout the reception. I recommend Dave Mancini to everyone, he is fabulous!

he dance floor, Dave is the best!

al part of the ceremony when it came to scheduling, and I was able to enjoy my day with minimal stress. By party time my friends and I danced for three hours straight while he played banger after banger. If you’re looking for someone who knows what they’re doing, look no further - DAVE IS THE BEST!!

c choices. He’s not just a DJ/MC he also got involved planning our timeline for our reception. His wife was a doll she was so sweet. We would choose Dave again in a heart beat! Thank you Dave for everything!!!

rom our grand entrance, to our last slow dance...Dave kept the energy through the roof and we got so many complements from our guests. Better yet, after we left, our family asked Dave to stay another hour and he kept everyone out on the floor for the whole night. If you want a personable MC and a DJ who can truly feel the music and keep the vibe upbeat and just right the whole time...Dave is the man for the job. Not only was he a great MC/DJ but Dave takes it upon himself to keep a very organized schedule of your event. He essentially turned into our day of coordinator for our wedding and made sure we were hitting all of our time hacks such as visiting tables, entrance, Bouquet toss, etc. (not pushy or bossy in any way). He took the thinking out of our reception and made it so that we could enjoy our family and friends, and most importantly each other. I’ve said it already but I’ll say it again. A good MC/DJ can make your event or break it if they’d bad and Dave made our night incredible! Also, I’m a snob for sound equipment and all of the audio from the speeches to the music were spot on, perfect volume, and the clarity was outstanding. This man undoubtedly loves his job and it is truly is calling!

erienced, and prepared. We were so impressed with him during our initial consult. Our wedding involved a live Lebanese band that required Dave to coordinate with. Dave went above and beyond in this task. He coordinated in advance, he assisted the band in setting up and all other AV aspects. Dave wasn't familiar with the venue we chose, so he went months in advance and scoped the place out for ideas on where the band and he should be stationed. Dave met me, the wedding coordinator, and venue coordinator for over two hours at the venue a month before the wedding. I don't know any DJ/MC who would spend the amount of time he did. This speaks volumes about Dave's work product and work ethic, he truly wants to make your day special and memorable. He came to our final meeting prepared, and his feedback was crucial to our wedding success. Dave also isn't afraid to give you advice or to propose a different plan, no matter what Dave wants your wedding/event to be a success. Dave is a vendor that you will never have to worry about, once you hire him, Dave will do the work and you will have complete confidence in his abilities. Our wedding reception had so many variables and cultures that we were trying combine and Dave did it perfectly. We had a huge mixture of guests, and Dave was able to cater to all of them. Dave kept the energy up, even when it started raining in LA on labor day. Dave and his team also took some amazing photos of the party and immediately shared them with us, they were able to capture some moments that the photographer wasn't able to capture. Dave, without a question, truly loves what he does and it shows in his work, how he presents himself, and how he organizes for events. Hiring Dave will bring you one major step closer to your amazing day.

e is professional, fun, and caring that everyone at the wedding including us really enjoyed him being part of the day. Dave even got the ones who don’t like to dance to stay on the dance floor and made sure no one is left out in any of the fun games/groups called to the dance floor.

rk and listened to every detail. Our wedding will forever be my favorite memory and part of that is because of Dave!

he was very professional and organized. Our wedding day was perfect. He wrote a ceremony that was perfect for us and captured exactly who we were as a couple. He was the perfect DJ/MC, and got everyone out on the floor dancing throughout the night. I would highly recommend him.

ked what we wanted out of our wedding and he incorporated his style around that. He was able to get the crowd engaged through simple methods. My friends told me that it was the most fun they have ever had at a wedding thanks to Dave. I would not hesitate to book him again for any large event. Thank you Dave for making one of the best day of our lives even better.

e smooth flow of the reception and playlist-- he got an otherwise reserved group of people up and active! My husband and I were very pleased that we went with Dave and highly recommend him to our friends.

timeline. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the perfect wedding. Dave not only helped put together a beautiful playlist for us but he made sure to personalize it which he then made into a cd for us! I have and will continue to recommend Dave to anyone looking to make a special event unforgettable.

raving about how he energized the crowd and had the dance floor packed the entire night. This night was brilliant and I'd live to relive it over and over and Dave is one of the many reasons why. Dave is such an amazing vendor and you'd be lucky to have him on your wedding team!

een!" We met with Dave and loved him, he was on top of everything and knew all things wedding. Over the next year we touched base a few times and I loved getting to read his blog after every wedding he had. We also attended his Wedding U that he does with a few other vendors to help couples to prepare and plan for their day. As our wedding day got closer I got more and more confident in our choice with Dave. We had our planning meeting and he was on top of it! He listened to everything we wanted and helped us decide on things we weren't sure of. His expertise was so wonderful to have. He asked questions about so many different things to give us a very personalized reception. He did the music for both our ceremony and reception and it all went without issue. As with all weddings of course things didn't go perfectly (none of our hiccups were from Dave at all) and He just went with it and adjusted our schedule accordingly. He was so fantastic. Before, during, and after our wedding Dave was not just a great choice for our MC/DJ, he was the BEST CHOICE.

that Dave listened to everything that we wanted and our concerns. He helped us imagine our wonderful day and it all fell in place as visioned. On our second meeting, Dave diligently planned our day, minute by minute, song by song. We were weary about not having a wedding coordinator but with Dave's plan, there was absolutely no need for one. Dave kept us all on schedule and most importantly he got all of our guest dancing and having a good night all night. If we could do it all over again we would pick Dave Mancini all over! We highly, highly recommend him!

king sure we were literally surrounded by those we love.

entertainer. When I got engaged, there was no one else I wanted to do my wedding. I knew if Dave was amazing 15+ years ago, he would blow everyone's socks off now! He truly exceeded my expectations. His charisma, quick wit, attention to detail, punctuality, creativity and organizational skills had become so refined, he is a true professional. He asked us questions about each other and our parents, and MEMORIZED our answers to use as introductions for our dances. I've been to 10+ weddings and have never seen that before! He is flexible with what you want. I know, because my vision was very outside of the box. He kept everything on time the day of the wedding and kept in contact with my photographer to accommodate her working hours. People are still raving about how my wedding was the best one they've been to, and I owe it to Dave! Someone said he didn't even dance at his own wedding, and he was dancing the whole time at mine. He had people climbing on their chairs dancing! He got EVERYONE on their feet, and got people who didnt know each other; to interact and become friends! If you want your guests to have a time that will not be forgotten, hire Dave. The man is worth every penny! Thank you SO MUCH Dave for the best day of my life!

recommendations on how to seamlessly flow from one part of the reception to the other. He used his secret techniques to make sure that all willing and able people were on the dance floor at ALL times. If you want a professional who keeps things running smoothly and butts on the dance floor, then Dave is your guy.

talking with a friend who was looking out for us. He is detailed, professional, and honest about his services and experiences and he helped us get organized to make our day run smoothly and stress-free. When you book Dave, you're getting more than a DJ who shows up and plays music. He helped us plan our reception, kept our guests partying all night, and handled every request we had big or small for the ceremony and reception. I can't recommend him enough if you're looking for an MC/DJ.

nator. Everybody was dancing all night long! Working with Dave was one of the most enjoyable parts of the wedding planning process, if we ever need a DJ for an event again we won't hesitate to call him! Thanks again Dave for such a memorable evening!

eel they can make or break a wedding; Dave definitely MADE our wedding! His ideas of how things should flow were unique. He was also completely open to our ideas, and helped them to be even more creative. The night couldn't have been more perfect, with our friends and family not only out on the dance floor, but staying on the dance floor! Even when it started to sprinkle outside the party continued. Aside from knowing how to start the party (and keep the party going), Dave is also very sweet and professional. We HIGHLY recommend Dave to DJ your wedding, you will be so happy you did!

ut I am so glad I found him because I am going to recommend him to everyone I know who might be looking for a DJ. He made sure to incorporate all of our music and added a couple awesome twists of his own I highly recommend him for your wedding - you won't be disappointed!

erviewed several people for the job and we knew Dave was the one!! He's a very quick witted man and can handle any situation that comes up! During our reception I realized we had made a mistake and left a very important person off our program!! My 12 year old son- who walked me down aisle. My son noticed his name was not on the program and asked me why at the reception. I felt HORRIBLE that I forgot to add his name. I told Dave about my mistake and asked if he could somehow fix it. Nonchalantly he called my son up in front of everyone to give him props for being such a great kid and walking me down the isle. I know my son really felt special and important at that moment. It meant a lot to me that Dave came up with that solution! I saw smiles from ear to ear on my son. Thanks Dave for everything!! =)

rs. I have known Dave since he was a young kid in a youth group but always admired how he took his love of music and turned it into a career. You have to be passionate about music, people and of course having fun to be a successful DJ and with Dave Mancini, you get the best of all worlds combined. Dave met with my wife and I and took us through the event scope giving us the freedom to customize things how we wanted. There were lots of helpful suggestions, best practices shared but ultimately he was willing to make it work just for us the way we wanted it to be. Our wedding was a Cinderella themed event so we had lots of little touches to go along with that. My wife didn't want to do a traditional bouquet toss, so Dave brought out all the couples with 5, 10, 20, 25, 50 and more years of marriage with the most experienced couple getting the bouquet. It was beautiful - as it was my wife's grandparents celebrating over 65 years this year. We did a morning ceremony with a brunch which was perfect for the holiday weekend. Dave knew that the crowd may need a rest during the reception, so he planned ahead for doing some "wedding games" and they were so much fun! Dave read our group brilliantly and kept the party going all the way to the end of the afternoon and then helped me pull of the biggest surprise of the day for my beautiful, new bride....I had arranged to have Cinderella's carriage there to take us away from the reception site for a carriage ride. Dave and our amazing photographer, David Ross from R&R photography had been in on the surprise so they could help me make it extra special for my wife, Jill. I highly recommend Dave Mancini and I know you won't be disappointed in your decision to work with him for your wedding or special event. Ira M. Castaic, CA

dding day this September. He is very accommodating and constantly making sure everything is made convenient for us. Dave is the best referral we have received throughout this whole planning process. We absolutely LOVE his upbeat, go-getter personality and find that he meshes well with us. Dave was a great addition to our wedding! He brought enthusiasm, high spirit and organization to our day. He not only acts as a dj, but also a coordinator. When other vendors were causing a disruption Dave jumped right in and helped our wedding coordinator take care of the problem head on. I'm so grateful he was there helping man the ship. I would definitely recommend him!

ife and I actually had the pleasure of experiencing a "Dj Dave Wedding" a few months prior to our own and he delivers every single time! Every couple knows how stressful the planning stages are but if given the chance, we'd run the whole gauntlet over again just to party with Dave at the helm! Thanks again, Dave! Your the man!

dule and even emails the schedule to all your vendors so everyone is on the same page. What a gigantic help that was! We also went over what type of music we did and did not want to hear. Our guests were really impressed with how much they loved every song that came on. Not one single song cleared the dance floor. It was full the entire night! Dave does an ice breaker to get the party started that our entire wedding had a blast with! He got all 170 guests PACKED onto our dance floor! SO many guests were saying they've never seen every guest on the dance floor at a wedding before, but Dave made it happen! He really engaged our guests, and they ended up loving him just as much as we do! We got to enjoy our reception and not worry about a thing, because we knew Dave had everything covered.

eakers to get tables talking through dinner, to his tricks to get people dancing on the very last song, he kept the party going. While planning he was attentive and guided us through the process of what we should look for and think about. He managed our timeline to make sure all of our key wedding moments were included. We are still getting compliment after compliment about his performance. If you have an opportunity to work with Dave, I suggest you take it.

put together everything for us and I was able to dance the night away! Thank you Dave for making my day so special!

of our friends and family have told us that we had the best MC/DJ and the most fun wedding that they have ever been too! Dave was also like a second wedding planner/coordinator during the planning process. He made several things very easy for us. He responded to my emails quickly and answered all of my questions. Even after the wedding he kept in touch with us. He posted photos from the wedding and wrote a fun blog about the wedding. I can't say enough great things about Dave. My family and I would recommend him to everyone and anyone! One last thing.....he got my dad not only on the floor but down on the floor dancing! Thank you so much Dave you are the BEST!!!!!

or break your wedding reception. They are the difference between ok-weddings and great weddings where you can tell everyone is having a good time. From the very start, Dave took the time to get to know us, understand our concerns, what we were looking for and he listened, he answered our questions and he was more than responsive. My husband and I were planning our wedding out of state but Dave never skipped a beat. We communicated via email, phone, and skype. He was quick to respond, always answered my million of questions and quickly. That was all just the preparation!! Dave isn't a DJ, he is an MC - The difference is very clear to me now. I've been to tons of weddings but for some reason when it came to planning my own, I couldn't remember all the small details. Dave gave us different ideas of what other couples have done, he gave us suggestions, and helped us to personalize our ceremony music, cocktail hour and reception. He managed the order and timing of our toasts, first dance, cake cutting, bouquet toss and more. He coordinated directly with the venue and all my vendors - all I had to do was give him the emails. He took all of that off my plate and made my job so easy. Fast forward to our actual wedding day, it was absolutely perfect. I know I'm biased but it's true and everyone has spent the last few days telling us how great our reception was and much fun it was. We have our DJ to thank for that. He had EVERYONE at EVERY table on the dance floor. It was amazing, he made it fun, he made sure everyone was present and surrounding us for every special event during our reception so no one would miss a thing! He managed the flow of the evening, he was able to read the crowd, and involved everyone at the wedding to really make them part of our event. Our guests were participants at our wedding rather than just spectators. As a very detail oriented person and former event coordinator, I tend to be more particular than most and Dave was just as detailed if not more so. He was with me every step of the way and I really can't say enough good things about Dave. If you are looking for more than a DJ/MC for your next event in Southern California, you will NOT be disappointed by selecting Dave. You'll get the personal attention and expertise of a true professional who will truly be a Master of your Ceremony!

l the way to the end. At our wedding reception, he was excellent at getting our guests pumped up for the grand entrance, setting the appropriate moods throughout the evening, and getting everyone to let loose and dance the night away! He made the room excited and energized with fun table games and ice breakers for the guests to immediately start having fun with each other. Dave made our special day an absolute blast for everyone there! I had a small ceremony, so I was initially worried about how many of our guests would actually want to get up and dance. Dave literally got everybody on the dance floor and every single person had such a fun time dancing! So much fun in fact, that we broke the dance floor!! That didn’t stop anyone though. Thanks to Dave, we all had the time of our lives and we will never forget what an epic night it was! I am so grateful for everything Dave did for us for our big day! Best. Wedding. Ever.

d was so flexible with last minute changes. Our guests had a blast at the wedding and I received so many compliments regarding Dave. He really was able to liven the room up and get everyone on the dance floor. It was amazing. I would recommend Dave to anyone I knew that needed a DJ.

amless. Everyone had such a good time dancing and participating. The best part was that Dave was also the DJ at our friends wedding, a couple months before ours. I thought that perhaps the things Dave said and did at their wedding would be cookie cutter and would be said at our wedding as well. I was a little Leary as well because both weddings had mostly the same guests (coworkers). That wasn't the case at all. Dave took a real interest in my husband and I as a couple and it showed. Thank you so much Dave for all that you did to make my wedding special and memorable!
