DJ Clay

What can I say about DJ Clay??! He was on our wavelength As soon as we started saying what music we liked, and didn’t like! We are a younger couple but I had classic songs I wanted as I went down the aisle or for our first dance, cliché some might say, but it was so magical and unique the way Clay had set them up. In between the other songs that made it special to us. Making it an overall magical experience. I’m a happy wife that can now say “this song played at my wedding” when some of our all time favorite songs come on the radio or our classic rock pandora! I actually had a very specific song that I knew was going to be perfect for my wedding day and Clay totally achieved that moment for me and I loved every second of it!! (It was Prince “Let’s Go Crazy” and it was glorious to see everyone up and dancing! A dance circle I will never forget!) My all time favorite moment was when I got to hula dance with my mom to one of my husband’s favorite songs. {Somewhere Over the Rainbow -IZ } I thought I had messed up so bad, but no one said a thing and everyone told us how beautiful it was, my husband even shed a tear. I think it was his favorite moment too. ;) The lights that Clay provided made it extra magical at night!! They were our themed color and he made it the perfect vibe for the evening as we danced our hearts out while we could!

DJ Clay is absolutely incredible at what he does. When my wife and I were planning our wedding, we were considering whether or not to get a wedding planner. But then we met Clay! He walked us through the entire event from start to finish. He had excellent suggestion in song choice, games, and how to make things flow seamlessly. He is a wealth information on everything wedding related. At the event he brought all the microphones, speakers, etc, and it all worked perfectly. My wife and I could not be happier with how things turned out, and a huge part of that is thanks to Clay. He is a true professional and I would recommend him to anyone.

Working with Clay was beyond incredible. My fiancé and I literally went through two other vendors for our DJing service and just didn’t feel right with either of them. Then our venue recommended Clay and his services. When we met with him, he was so thorough and asked so many great questions. Planning a wedding is hard but planning during Covid was even harder. He made the process so much easier and on the day we felt like he truly guided the evening so well. He was lively, funny, conscientious, and excellent as a MC. He truly made our wedding so much fun and came up with clever ways to fill time that could have been spent on the dance floor. Our guests all day this was the best wedding they have been to and I feel like it was largely in part because of Clay setting the vibe. Clay is the best. You won’t regret working with him!!

Clay did an amazing job through the entire process of our wedding. He worked with us through all of our ups and downs with planning and date changes through covid-19. He was easy to work with and did an amazing job through the ceremony and reception. Cradle to crave clay made my job easier and less stressful. I highly recommend clay as your DJ for your wedding!

Clay was a wonderful part of our big day! He is friendly and professional, always replied promptly to any questions and was available to talk to us personally. No random DJ will be allotted to you, you will work directly with Clay. We wanted that personal touch. We gave him a list of songs we like and he went from there making a really nice playlist. We got several compliments on music that day. It was a no dancing due to Covid wedding but Clay was ready to jump in and be creative in making it fun and safe. Thank you!

Clay was great! Punctual, professional, and a fun guy who made everyone comfortable. He did an outstanding job officiating our wedding.

Our daughter’s wedding was caught in the California covid shutdown. We had to quickly find a way to recognize their day despite all of their formal plans being put on indefinite hold. I reached out to DJ Clay who put together the most thoughtful, high-quality radio dedication program with songs from our guests to the bride and groom. DJ Clay also played at the make-up wedding day which was video taped and sent to all of our guests. The music was perfect for the ceremony and recorded beautifully too. DJ Clay is slated to play at the make-up reception we are planning for after COVID. Besides being an utterly delightful human, he was easy to work with, flexible, professional and loyal to our needs as they emerged. He helped us find creative solutions and was completely there for us. I recommend him without hesitation. He’s very good at what he does.

Clay was such an incredible guy to have at our wedding. We considered hiring an event coordinator/planner because it was stressful trying to figure out how to orchestrate a wedding. Clay sat down with us and we talked through each step. He went through our preferences and he had helpful suggestions. At the end we felt comfortable not having a wedding coordinator, because he really knew how to transition and wrangle guests in a wedding day schedule. He has been doing weddings and in this industry since the age of 10 and the experience shows. He is very much in his element. We are so happy that we had Clay for our wedding and had such an amazing day! Thank you Clay!

From the very beginning working with DJ Clay, finding the right style music was made easy. He was such a great help with a fantastic personality that provided a comfortable and relaxed vibe. Despite covid he was able to rock out non existent dance floor. Even with all the changes he was able to help make our dream come true. DJ Clay was on point with everything, helping to bring out magical day to life. He also assisted with every request from bride and groom to make sure we were happy throughout both the ceremony and reception. He was very helpful with our live streaming app called Event Life for our friends and family who couldn’t make it. We greatly appreciate everything he did for us!

Hey, I just wanted to send you a huge applause for the work you did at my daughter’s wedding. I know it’s been a while but it seems like it was yesterday. You are truly talented and professional and had every T crossed and I dotted and we all appreciate you so much. Wedding is never good without an excellent MC. And you were just that! Excellent! Thanks again and for anyone reading this-HIRE Clay! You won’t regret it!

DJ Clay is an incredible DJ and MC for any event but we were so blessed to have him for our wedding day. Everything went so perfectly and he was a huge part of that. We are so thankful to have had him apart of our day and help to make it so perfect! Thank you DJ Clay!

DJ Clay is the best! My wife and I got married in July in Lake Arrowhead and we feel so fortunate to have found Clay. His music was everything we wanted and more. He sat down with us about a month before the wedding and went over all the details - which he then went on the execute perfectly. Ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were on point. He listened to our style of music choices and complimented it beautifully with his own choices. We used all the music for another wedding celebration a month later, it was great! He is professional and fun! My parents are still raving about him! Photo booth was a perfect compliament to the evening and some of the best photos we have. Thanks Clay! Steph and Lindsey

I highly recommend DJ Clay. Our wedding was in July and our reception was held at the Lake Arrowhead Resort. DJ Clay is amazing and made our wedding so much fun! He met with us prior to the wedding and helped us plan the music for our reception. He played a great variety of music that made everyone happy. He was very accommodating with our requests for specific songs. In addition to the great music, our guests loved the photo booth. What a great way to create fun memories for everyone from age 5 to 100! The best part is that we received a disc with all the photo booth photos. Every time we look at them, we smile and remember our wedding day and the fun we had. If you want a DJ who is a true professional, great to work with, and accomodating to your needs and requests, you cant go wrong with DJ Clay.

I'm so late in writing this, but 8 months ago DJ Clay helped make our wedding day absolutely perfect. I was so nervous about getting a great DJ because I feel they really make or break the reception. Our DJ cancelled two weeks before our wedding and we frantically searched for a new one. Clay met with us the week of our wedding, drove far to meet with us, and spent a few hours helping us decide what we want. He was open to us picking all our songs or to picking them himself, and I felt like he really listened to what kind of wedding we wanted to have. He clearly knew what he was doing, and came prepared to take detailed notes of everything we said. On the day of our wedding he came early, and didn't take a break the whole time. He played the right kind of music at the right time, knowing how to get people on the dance floor. He was exciting and fun, upbeat enough to keep the party going but not so involved that it felt like he was stealing the show. We loved him so much. I can't recommend him enough. The morning of my wedding I realized there was a song I really wanted played, and ten minutes before our reception he added it into the playlist. He was accommodating and personable, easy to work with and very fairly priced. I'm honestly so grateful our original DJ didn't work out because DJ Clay is the only person I would want to do my wedding. Seriously I can't recommend him enough. If you're feeling on the fence or can't make a decision it's definitely worth reaching out to him. The second you talk to him you'll be able to rest easy knowing he's very experienced and will do everything he can to make your day perfect!

We hired DJ Clay to dj our wedding this past weekend. I normally do not take the time to write reviews, but Clay was so fantastic I feel compelled to share my experience. Clay was great to work with. He took time to meet with me and my new husband prior to the event. He listened to our desires and he provided suggestions when needed. Clay was available to talk to us whenever we had any pre-wedding questions. On our wedding day---Clay exceeded my expectations. During the reception, three different guests told me that it was their opinion he was the best dj they have experienced. Our party was having so much fun that when it was over, everyone on the dance floor started to chant "one more song! One more song..."It was cute. I really think that Clay made our wedding and I highly recommend him. Also, we did the photo booth that dj clay provides. His wife, Jamie, worked the photobooth. She was fabulous and fun. All of our guests really enjoyed the photo booth so I am glad we chose to add that to our package. If I could give a ten star rating, I would.

I absolutely loved Clay. He was so friendly and easy to work with and very supportive of our music choices. He made it work perfectly for us. He also has a great personality and kept people upbeat and on their feet on my wedding night. Music is very important to me and I look at it as the soundtrack to our wedding night and he made it one I will never forget. My husband and I highly recommend Clay.

WOW! DJ Clay absolutely blew my wife and I away! We got hitched 8/31/16 and Clay officiated our ceremony and DJ'd our reception flawlessly! Clay met with us several times and walked us through our wedding script (this was our first time) giving us options and advice on our readings until we ultimately came up with a script that my wife said could not have been better. Then the week before the wedding we decided to postpone the ceremony 30 minutes to let the sun set for lighting purposes and Clay rescheduled the entire wedding right in front of our eyes and later notified our venue and wedding coordinator of the changes. The reading was perfect and I can tell Clay rehearsed the script to prevent any Freudian slips. The sound equipment and mics worked great and all our guests heard the entire ceremony. At the reception my wife and I had a medley style first dance which Clay cut the music for. Several times actually, at our request Clay was happy to remix the medley until it was perfect (which it was). We would not have been able to get that done any other way. My wife and I had gone over the schedule with Clay often and knew what to do and when to do it, this made the whole night so stress free I felt like I had a personal assistant the whole day! The music was perfect and we couldn't have asked for anything else except we also booked Clay's photo booth which our guests could not get out of! The DVD that Clay gave us of all the photos taken in the booth that night is proof of the value it held. I could not imagine planning a wedding without DJ clay. He was responsible for the ceremony , scheduling, entertainment including the music and photo booth helped us pick out wedding games etc, and he also worked closely with our vendors and the venue and made everything seem so easy. I can NOT thank you again Clay! You were amazing! THANK YOU!

DJ Clay was on point the whole wedding, from the days leading up to the wedding all the way through the last song at the wedding. He was very attentive and pulled all of the requests off that he was continually getting bombarded with. I never write reviews but was compelled to write one because Clay was so good. He was calm and collected throughout, kept the celebrations on schedule and never missed a beat. You will not be disappointed if you use him. Thank you again, Clay!

DJ Clay came as a recommendation from our venue nearly 23 months ago, when we first booked our venue. He was new to their location and they had loved his work that far. Jump ahead to our wedding this past April, and I couldn't IMAGINE it with any one other than Clay. We decided after hearing his work at the venue tasting in February 2013 that we had to book him right then and there. He had such a wonderful variety of music, and his instrumental Top 40s was the icing on the cake. We met with Clay before the wedding to discuss likes and dislikes in our music. As we had such a long time to think about details for our wedding, we had a list of what music we thought would fit where, and what music we wanted for first dance, grand entry, etc -- but even with all our planning, we couldn't have had the ceremony and reception we had without Clay. His timeline for our wedding was a lifesaver -- a true professional, he took meticulous notes for our wedding day and helped us to plan the entire reception timeline. Not only is he a WEDDING DJ (trust me, there is a difference, he was more a master of ceremonies in the best of ways), he has the most cheerful personality and is a genuine soul who's a true blessing to be around. We felt extremely well taken care of and watched out for on our wedding day. Not to mention the numerous compliments we received that evening and in the following weeks to come. Clay not only got people out on the dance floor, he kept them out there. He's the best guy for the job if you're looking for a DJ. He's going to listen, offer suggestions when asked, and do a more miraculous job of hosting your event and playing YOUR music than you could ever imagine.

We wanted our reception to be fun and entertaining without being cheesey. Clay was PERFECT. Clay made our reception interactive. He played games with our guests to keep them entertained. When it came time to dance, Clay used tactics to get everyone on the dance floor. Several of our guests said it was the funnest wedding they have ever been to. His music selection was awesome. Clay is very professional, punctual and organized. He met with us in person to discuss what we had in mind for our reception. The day of our wedding, he went above and beyond what we expected.
