Wowwww!! My husband and I used Justin and Karen for both DJ and coordination services. They were the dream team for our backyard wedding to come to life. We booked them about a year in advance and they made a trip to help us figure out the flow for our wedding, and assisted us in planning what was going to be needed for our private ranch wedding.
We felt comfortable executing our vision right away, Justin and Karen know what they're talking about.
I found Justin for DJ services on the Knot, and after looking through his IG, I knew he had to be our DJ. I just appreciated that he made the effort to market himself, and posted his other weddings so we could see what to expect.
Justin executed! We didn't need a whole lot of consultations, he got our style just from the Spotify playlist we put together. We had so much dang fun on the dance floor. And our dance floor was moving the whole night. Everyone complemented our song selections the next day and said our wedding was one of the bests they'd ever been too. Hats off Justin!
KAREN! Our wedding wouldn't have ran so smoothly and been so organized with out you. My husband and I were planning a semi-destinational wedding. Which was no easy feat for us being 6 hours away from our backyard venue. Karen gave us suggestions for vendors for event staffing, helped us develop timelines, and ensured that we were following all the contracts. I was so impressed by how on top of everything she was, even keeping me accountable for what was needed from me. She reached out to all vendors for timeline, instructions, and kept them honest for holding up their end of contracts, even making changes when the weather took a turn. Our photographer even said she was the best coordinator she's ever worked with, we ran ahead of schedule for almost all things the day of our wedding. I am so so grateful for all the work she put into our day!
It would be an absolute miss for anyone to not use Justin or Karen or both of them together. They're seasoned professionals, and this review will never be enough for how appreciative we are. Thank you so much!
Justin from DJ JAS was great to work with. He was our DJ at our wedding in June at Oak Grove Ranch. He is very professional and his planning tools make the process seemless. He had multiple zoom meetings with us to go over every detail of the wedding. He was able to set up seperate audio systems for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. The uplighting he provided did a great job setting the atmosphere of the venue. His music was spot on and he was even able to make some edits to a song for us. He's not someone that just shows up and plays a Playlist. He is a true DJ that takes great pride in his work.
Dang. DJ JAS exceeded our expectations 10 fold. And that’s saying something because we were familiar with his game from attending a friends wedding where he DJ’ed their epic dance floor.
On my first call with Justin we clicked. His easy going personality and passion for DJ’ing made for great conversation.
Planning out the set was a breeze. We were able to provide all our songs via Spotify playlists and worked with Justin over two calls to collaborate on the vibe from start to finish.
He not only executed it to perfection but he made custom drops for our walk out, had unique mixes during the party and MC’d the entire event in the most professional way.
Did I mention all the equipment was top of the line? His equipment and lighting were a huge contributing factor to the overall success of the event, he helped create an ambiance that was wonderfully dramatic! Not a single mic issue, sounds were never too low, lights were more than we needed.
All for one price. It’s seriously a one stop shop experience.
It’s easy. Would 10/10 recommend.
Oh and he records video of the entire dance party. We’ve been watching it on repeat. Such a sweet surprise to be able to go back to all the highlight moments.
When planning our wedding at Glen Annie Golf Course in Goleta, CA, we knew that having a great DJ would be instrumental for the day of. Justin was a recommended DJ from our venue, and was also recommended by our photographer during one of our meetings. Immediately after that call ended, we looked at Justin's website and knew that he was exactly what we were looking for. His website was super easy to use, and his custom music he has on display was a great insight on what he could do. Justin was extremely helpful, polite, and incredibly efficient. There wasn't anything we as the bride and groom had to worry about in regards to announcements, music, etc. He not only catered to our music selection with great variety, but continued to read the room as the night went on. All of our guests spoke highly of the DJ and how much fun they had on the dance floor, and it's something we will forever cherish! 5 stars is not enough to showcase just how amazing and dedicated he is. If you're looking for a DJ for a wedding or any special event, Justin is absolutely the man for you.
We were beyond impressed with Justin as our DJ and MC for our wedding at Rancho De Las Palmas! Justin was highly recommended by our friends and did not disappoint. From the very beginning his professionalism stood out. We met before booking and the session was extremely informative. Justin also has his own site where you can add all your music preferences and add the information for your wedding day. Justin took time to meet with us multiple times leading up to our wedding to make sure we were completely comfortable with the flow of the day. He was on time, had all his own equipment for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, did a MIC check with our officiant, provided wireless microphones for ceremony and reception and included uplighting in our reception space. What was most impressive though was our dance floor being full ALL NIGHT. Justin truly knows how to read a room and keep guests of all ages engaged. We had an absolute blast dancing the night away and are still receiving tons of compliments about the music at our wedding!
Justin was AMAZING and so professional from start to finish. I still receive compliments to this day about the music from my wedding day. He has the best audio equipment/setup and executed the day flawlessly from the ceremony all the way to the reception. We also used Justin for up lighting which really elevated the dinner experience. He is extremely prompt and organized and really nailed the vibe I wanted for the music on my wedding day. Would absolutely HIGHLY recommend him for anyone getting married to dj your wedding!!!
So the music for our wedding was CRUCIAL for me as it had to be PERFECT. I knew that dance floor had to be LIT. I randomly came across an Instagram video of Justin mixing songs and knew he was the guy to pull it off. It was the exact high energy and excitement we wanted.
Justin took so many calls and texts from us explaining each vision that we had from our first dance to special surprise dances and moments even custom mixing tracks for us. No matter the time or day or random thought I had he was totally reachable and ON BOARD.
After the wedding we had so many compliments from people about our dance floor and music. Truly it was a BLAST and we could not have done it without Justin. Not to mention great MC skills he totally knew exactly when and how to queue us. The dance floor was going off so much so that we didn't even change songs for the cake cutting and kept it going till we had to shut down El Paseo. BOOK JUSTIN
From the moment we first connected with Justin, his professionalism shone through. He was prompt in his responses, attentive to our needs, and incredibly organized. We appreciated how he took the time to meet with us prior to the big day to understand our musical preferences, timeline, and any special requests we had. His attention to detail was evident from the start, and it immediately put us at ease knowing that we were in good hands.
Justin’s creativity and ability to read the crowd truly set him apart. Throughout the night, he seamlessly mixed tracks from different genres and eras, keeping the dance floor packed and energy levels high. His transitions were flawless, and he knew exactly when to slow things down for a romantic moment and when to turn up the tempo/energy. It was clear that he wasn't just playing music—he was curating an experience, tailored specifically to us and our guests.
Justin also collaborated with other vendors with ease. He worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, venue staff, and other vendors to ensure that everything ran smoothly. He communicated effectively with everyone involved, making sure that all the moving parts came together seamlessly. It was evident that he was a team player, and his ability to collaborate with others only enhanced the overall success of our wedding day.
Justin exceeded all our expectations and then some. His professionalism, creativity, attention to detail, and ease in collaboration with other vendors made him an absolute pleasure to work with. If you're looking for a DJ who will elevate your wedding to the next level, look no further than Justin. You get what you pay for, and more.
We had Justin from DJ JAS Productions DJ our wedding on April 13th and we were not disappointed! We interviewed Justin about 6 months before and we clicked immediately. He listened to what we wanted and took the time to make sure this was one less thing we had to worry about. In the weeks leading up to the wedding we spoke multiple times on zoom calls and went over the timeline and music selection we wanted.
We requested a lot of Spanish music and also a bunch of electronic/trance music. The dancing started and did not let up until the last song! All our guests had an amazing time. We were super happy with DJ JAS. Thanks Justin for an amazing wedding!
We recently had the absolute pleasure of enlisting the services of DJ Jas Productions, and let me tell you, they did not let us down. Justin was instrumental in helping us put together the schedule for our reception & guided us through each step of the planning process.
In the end we could not have asked for more from any of our wedding vendors & our reception was just the best. Justin made sure the music flowed throughout the event based on the music we chose for each part of the reception. All our intros & speeches were on point.
Music is just such an important part of any celebration & in the end everyone had a blast. Thank you DJ Jas Productions for going above & beyond to make sure our special day went off without a hitch. Thank you Justin!
DJ JAS is an absolute legend! We witnessed his work at a wedding we attended and immediately knew we had to have him as our wedding DJ. Our reception was a fusion of both the Punjabi & American culture, and Justin did not disappoint! With an impeccable blend of American and Punjabi tunes, his song selections and insane mixing skills flawlessly harmonized both cultures, elevating our reception to an unforgettable celebration. Working with him was a breeze. He is very knowledgeable and understands the flow of events well. His seamless process and accommodating nature alleviated any pre-event jitters and throughout the night, his unwavering assurance and professional finesse ensured a smooth-running event, leaving us free to revel in the joy of the night. With his stellar music choices and smooth transitions, our wedding became the ultimate celebration of love, laughter, and killer dance moves!
Got married this July and Justin was our DJ and Emcee for the wedding and a pre-wedding event. Justin’s a pleasure to work with. His DJ skills, song selection, and ability to read and build the energy in the room was truly memorable. Add to that he’s very organized and professional. We knew we he was solid when the Indian aunties started an impromptu dance party at our pre-wedding lunch. His Emceeing for the wedding was exactly what we wanted, upbeat, clear and not over the top. Justin also gave us great advice when we were unsure on decisions. Throughout the planning process and during the big day we were in great hands.
WOW! Justin went above and beyond to make our wedding exactly how we imagined it. When we hired Justin, we knew we were hiring an amazing DJ but we did not know how accommodating Justin would be throughout the planning process. Justin made sure to review important timelines and make important suggestions that we never thought of. Not only did he help our wedding timeline go smoother, his DJ expertise was one we were so happy with. Here we are almost a week after our wedding and we have gotten so many guests commenting to us about how great our DJ was. Justin had people dancing the whole night. I wish we could have another big event soon just to have Justin DJ again! He is who we will recommend to all of our friends and family who need a DJ! You will not be disappointed with his services!
Our wedding night was an absolute blast, thanks to the exceptional talent and expertise of DJ JAS (Justin). From the first song to the last, they flawlessly curated a musical experience that had everyone on their feet. Their ability to read the crowd and seamlessly transition between genres kept the energy high throughout the night. The sound quality was outstanding, and the lighting effects added an extra touch of magic to the dance floor. DJ JAS (Justin) accommodated our special requests and personalized our first dance, creating unforgettable moments. Their professionalism and coordination with the venue and vendors made the whole experience stress-free. Choosing DJ JAS (Justin) was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding, and we highly recommend them to anyone seeking an unforgettable celebration filled with incredible music and unforgettable memories.
I could write a 5000 word review detailing how perfect and smooth it was working with Justin and Karen for our DJ and coordination needs. But it would still not get across the perfection and joy they brought to our wedding day.
Our wedding from start to finish went without a SINGLE hitch, our dance floor was on FIRE the entire time, and their detailed planning before and coordination during let us be 100% present to enjoy our day.
Our guests have told us the same sentiments! Hire Justin and Karen - you won’t have any regrets!!
Thank you with all our hearts for making our day incredible. We are so grateful!
Justin was amazing to work with. He was the first vendor I hired and give me lots of recommendations for my other vendors I ultimately ended up hiring. Justin is extremely professional and takes his job seriously. He's also extremely well-spoken which is important for the MC aspect. I had very specific "vibes" I wanted for the different parts of my wedding and he knocked it out of the park. Everyone described my cocktail hour as "magical" and that was largely in part due to Justin playing the kind of music I had requested while also having a violinist play to his songs. It was awesome! THANK YOU JUSTIN!
When we met Justin, we thought "Finally! A wedding vendor who makes us feel secure!" He was calm, professional and responsive the whole way - listening to our wedding woes and reassuring all of our worries. Every time we spoke with him, we walked away knowing that we could place 100% of our trust in him. And we were right. The music on our wedding night flowed seamlessly, even though we had collected a mish mash of songs from the past 50 years. We were so happy to have worked with him and gotten to know him!
We couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our wedding. It's 3 months later and our guests are still talking about how they've never seen a dance floor go non-stop for 3 hours. Justin arranged a couple of meetings to understand what kind of atmosphere we were looking for the ceremony, the dinner, and of course for the dance floor. The website he provided to select songs was very easy to use. His design suggestions (e.g., up-lighting) were perfect. He enthusiastically accommodated a last minute decision to have the bridge serenaded to You've Lost That Loving Feeling on the dance floor... thank you, Justin for making our special day so perfect!
Let me start off by saying one of the harder vendors for us to book was DJ/MC services because we just had no idea where to start looking and didn’t know of any DJ’s/MC’s. I’m so thankful I found Justin (DJ JAS) on The Knot. From our first meeting my (fiancé then, now husband) and I “vibed” with him right away, he made us feel comfortable and welcomed any questions we had. He even gave us a good price for our weekday wedding and threw in uplighting as well (which really elevated the aesthetics in our reception area). Justin is very organized and was very helpful from the start. When the wedding day finally came, Justin made sure our guests were entertained from start to finish and our friends especially, loved him. It’s not easy to get people who have work the next day to dance and let loose on a Wednesday night but Justin did just that and for that we are forever thankful! Thanks so much DJ JAS for everything! Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and you were a big part of that. Highly recommend!
Justin was an absolute pleasure to work with, and one of THE BEST decisions we made for our Oct 15 wedding!! He had our dance floor PACKED the entire night. In the days after the wedding, so many people told us how much they loved the music. He was able to appeal to every generation without playing a single cheesy wedding song - seamlessly mixing early 2000s, EDM, funk, groovy 60's and 70's, etc.
Justin not only managed the energy of the night, but also perfectly mic'ed up our ceremony and nailed the tricky timing for our intros perfectly. (We to be introduced at a very specific moment in a song, and he had to loop the section before live to make it match perfectly.) Don't underestimate how important it is for a ceremony to be mic'ed up well! Everyone's been to a wedding where they can't hear what's going on, static gets in the way of the vows, etc.
I definitely recommend extra colored stand lights for dancing, they were awesome and really set the mood!
Words cannot even describe how wonderful DJ JAS is! My cousin used him for his wedding back in 2017 and all I remember was how no one left the dance floor! From the very beginning, he was respectful and understanding of how I wanted my day to go. He gave his input where I needed it, and I really appreciated his honest opinion. From emails, texts, phone calls, to finally meeting in person, Justin made us feel so comfortable, like he was a lifelong friend. I knew my music and MC'ing were in great hands. We even had my little sister do a surprise entrance and he executed it perfectly! The entire night everyone kept talking about how great the music was and the variety he mixed together. I am white and my husband is hispanic, and Justin could not have been better at blending the music we wanted. Even my photographer was on the dance floor, and told us that out of all the weddings he has shot this year, only one other one had a live dj and it truly makes a difference. Also, we used Justin's uplighting he offered and it just added the right amount of elegance to our wedding. I promise you will not regret hiring DJ JAS for your event, he is well worth it.
We hired Justin not long after we got engaged in 2020 for DJing and MC services for our wedding in September 2022 at the Hilton Santa Barbara Beachfront Resort. This was one of the best decisions that we made for our wedding. Justin from the start gave us all of the information we needed to start planning our DJing and MC services. He was so easy to talk to, he took our concerns and questions seriously, his online system to pick and choose songs was easy to use and he was so responsive over the past two years. Closer to the big day we had multiple phone calls with Justin to button up the details which included sending us song suggestions for certain parts of our wedding, discussing the timeline, and set-up up our wedding to make sure it was perfect. One big attestation of how phenomenal Justin really is was just two weeks before the bid day we had our after-party location change on us and we had no speakers and had not planned on having his service for the after-party. We expressed this to Justin and he called us within an hour offering his speakers and mixes to send us so we could play them! He saved us! On the day of the wedding, his services and expertise shined even brighter. Not having ever met Justin in person we felt like we knew him for years, he was so kind, and professional, and made a great impression on all of our guests, and his mixes are off the charts! We had our whole wedding on the dance floor the WHOLE night! We had a DJ as a guest at our wedding and he made a point to express how impressed he was with Justin. Justin also was clear when he was performing MC duties, you could tell he prepped for some of the names on our list and read them perfectly and in order. Justin is also a certified partner for BOSE, the sound was amazing and his mics are hidden. He truly has the highest quality equipment. If you are looking for an experienced, professional, and organized DJ/MC look no further! I would be more than happy to recommend Justin to our friends/family and anyone in need.
As a very big bonus, Justin also offers wedding coordination services. Meet Karen Dicks, the very best there is. We hired Karen after talking with Justin and were so very glad we did. Karen does way more than just coordinating. She offers her professional advice on vendors, and set-up creates a detailed timeline, looks through contracts, and is supportive. Her passion shows through her work. Karen was always available to talk whether it was by email, call, or facetime I always felt like she put our wedding first even when I am sure she had many other weddings going on. Meeting her for the first time at our wedding was like catching up with an old friend, and that was the very best feeling besides having your coordinator and DJ on the exact same page. Karen is very organized and did not miss a beat throughout our whole day. On my wedding day, I didn't have to do a single thing other than show up, and Karen checked on us all night to make sure we were having the best night ever. Karen went above and beyond what we expected and could not have been happier. I would recommend Karen to anyone who wants to feel taken care of, wants to work with someone extremely professional, and wants their dream wedding to come to life! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
We loved working with team JAS (Karen and Justin)! Not only because their teamwork was beyond helpful, but because Karen's attention to detail and advocacy for us was unmatched. We had Karen as our coordinator and Justin as our DJ. Karen picked up on things when reviewing contracts that we easily overlooked and aided in vendor communication. We felt that she gave us genuine guidance in determining rental quantities and offered suggestions on ways we could save. Karen also communicated with all of our vendors and gave recommendations on our timeline to ensure we had the day that we wanted. Even as the big day got closer and we decided to change things around, Karen remained flexible, easy to work with, always went along with what we wanted, and adjusted our timeline accordingly. Team JAS worked together to answer all of our questions. Justin had worked at our venue more than Karen, and their experience and collaboration together made planning a breeze. When there was an unknown question or idea, Karen and Justin worked together to ensure we received a well-rounded answer. This teamwork especially showed through when we had questions about the restrooms at our venue. Not only did Justin call us that same day, but that weekend Karen went to our venue and took a video of the restrooms to ensure we were comfortable with any decision we made. Karen's experience with photography and sharp eye for detail was perfect when staging rentals and signs. She also seamlessly blended our decor with fixed features at the venue to ensure the entire place was picturesque. At the end of the night, Karen packed everything up and delivered all of our most important things back to our hotel room so we had nothing to worry about as we enjoyed our big day. Both Karen and Justin were great problem solvers. When part of our cake started melting due to the heat, Karen applied our cake topper to make it look intentional. We want to thank you so much for all of your help coordinating our wedding! Everything was perfect thanks to your hard work and we cannot express how appreciative we are for everything you guys did for us! You have a hard job and you both do it very well! We would without a doubt recommend them to family, friends and anyone else looking to have their perfect wedding.

Hired DJ JAS for our wedding and let me tell you he brought the heat. He had everyone dancing. Justin was so easy to work with, very accommodating and was on top of everything. If you need a good DJ I highly recommend booking with DJ JAS. Let’s be honest, a DJ will either make or break your shindig. Don’t make the mistake of going with another DJ. Choose Justin!
Absolutely thrilled working with Justin for our wedding. He came highly recommended and definitely did not disappoint. We did several planning meetings with him over the phone and he just made us feel so comfortable that he understood exactly what we were looking for during all stages of the wedding. He made it easy for us to give him guidance on the type of music we were wanting to hear. We loved the music selection that he created based on our specific style. He definitely kept the audience dancing for hours. And his sound system was top notch!! He did an amazing job.
We hired DJ Jas for our wedding and it was such a great decision for so many reasons! Not only was the music fantastic throughout the entire wedding, his communication and professionalism was beyond exceptional throughout the entire process.
As a couple, we understand how much music influences the atmosphere at an event. To us, music is a crucial part of a great wedding! And wow was our wedding and the dance floor great!
It is clear Justin loves what he does and working with someone that has true passion for what they do makes working with them easy and fun. He was organized and kept on top of us to make sure we were hitting deadlines and staying on top of our music selections. Planning a wedding can be a tedious and stressful process, but DJ Jas’ professionalism and great communication made the music side of this process go very smooth and stress free.
Besides the professionalism and communication, DJ Jas is extremely talented and a wonderful person to talk to. The music was off the charts and we will be definitely recommending him to all of our friends, and highly recommend him for anyone that is looking for a DJ for a wedding or event. Thank you DJ Jas and we hope everyone will keep him at the top of their list when looking for their next event entertainer!
My wife and I actually met at a wedding that was DJ’d by Justin at JAS Productions in 2017. We both love dancing and Justins mixes were amazing. The music was so good that we danced all night. It was the best start to our relationship. So of course, when we were planning our own wedding we decided to hire JAS Productions to be our DJ as well. Our wedding took place July 2022 and it was lit. People jumped on the dance floor as soon as they could and they danced the entire night. We are still getting compliments about how much fun it was. Justin delivered better than we even imagined. He is an exceptional DJ. He is an artist that loves what he does and it is comes through in his work. He took our input and our playlists seriously while incorporating his own expertise and artistry. He is flat-out talented. He is also impressively professional and knows his business. He was always communicative, very kind to us and our planners, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. We are endlessly grateful to Justin for delivering on such important occasions for us. We would attend any wedding that was DJ’d by JAS Productions.
Without proper guidance, choosing your wedding DJ is a big leap of faith. You ultimately aren't just choosing a DJ for music. You're also choosing the master of ceremonies: the person to run the show & make sure everything you have planned & paid for runs smoothly. You want someone who will play your music & work a crowd... but also someone who is "wedding savvy." They must understand the tight TIGHT schedule of a wedding... & know all the punches for the important details, traditions & honors- someone who literally knows weddings inside & out. Justin is that person! Luckily- I am not a professional bride & Justin's expertise was essential. My wedding had a lot of moving parts (even more than your average wedding). Justin gave my vision a lot of time; making sure to understand it to a T. On the other hand, he guided me through the wedding per announcement and song, personalizing all of it so we would be happy with how things would flow. His form makes it easy to get organized but also familiarizes YOU with the layout of a wedding too which I found super helpful. We are so grateful to have found a DJ who is the full package.
If you hire Justin, consider yourself one less daunting task of wedding planning away from the big day!
(BTW- We had a "fashion show" style aisle/catwalk. As someone who has produced dozens of fashion shows, I can vouch for his abilities as a runway DJ too).
If you are looking for a Dj, save yourself the time and book with JAS productions. I recently got married this past May 2022 and hands down he made our day! I remember waking up the morning after our wedding and my husband and I both said to each other...he was the BEST! He nailed it and delivered everything we asked for and more. I was a little nervous about explaining our vision for music and he made the process so easy and stress free. He has an amazing website where we were able to pick our "must have" songs and it was easy to navigate. Very organized and clear. When we met on Skype he was so professional and made us feel like we had already known each other for years. We had changed some things a week prior to the wedding and he adjusted without hesitation. Music is a huge part of the big day and he delivered and then some. I really can not recommend him enough and I know anyone who books him will be so thankful they did! Thank you Justin for making our day so special and memorable!
On April 30th of 2022 we celebrated our wonderful wedding day in Solvang, CA. A perfect day at Brave and Maiden Winery with sparkling 75 degree sunny weather. However with all wonders of the day, JAS Productions added the cherry on top. Justin completed the perfectness of our Wedding Day. Every aspect of the music and lighting was flawless. I was nervous planning everything for the wedding myself and dealing with all the vendors wasn’t easy. However, from the beginning Justin made it so simple and easy. He was the only vendor that I had zero concern during the planning. He even met me at the venue to walk through the entire plan and we discussed every detail at length. I hired a live singer that was a surprise for my wife and guests and Justin planned that for me to ultimate perfection. Thank you to JAS Productions for making the most special day of our lives that much more special. You hit every mark perfectly, your lighting was spectacular, music was awesome(he mixed every song!)planning was flawless and your professionalism was unparalleled. Thank you Justin!
JAS Productions was phenomenal. On every interaction we had with Justin, whether is was one of the many planning calls or at the wedding itself, he was professional and passionate about making our special day a blast!
As my wedding was interracial (Indian/American), one of my and my wife's concerns was the ability of our DJ to combine the two drastically different music styles so that all of the guests found themselves on the dance floor. Justin rose to the occasion and mixed a blowout set that got everyone moving.
Please give Justin your business. You won't regret it.
Justin was wonderful! Our wedding was postponed 2 years due to COVID, but he stuck through it all with us. He was very helpful with using his websites and working with us on our music selections. Despite the time and never meeting prior to the wedding he greeted us with open arms and helped us have the most incredible day. He played for us until midnight and kept all my friends and family dancing the night away. Justin, thank you so much for everything, you really helped make our day perfect!

Justin is a master of his trade and so intuitive, professional, and experienced. He was worth every penny I had left after this pocket-emptying wedding. His flat rate for his DJing proves among all other DJ Services that he's skilled and confident in what he does that he would never give anything less than his best. No only bringing "gold package" performance when you hope for but opt out of paying for a "platinum" service with other services. He promises to bring his best every time and that's such a great business model.
I had never seen it across many other places I looked but listening to his mixtapes and talking with him, it was clear he knew exactly how to keep the dance floor full and happy.
My take was that, he is an audiophile (sound nerd and lover) by nature, passionate and intentional with what he gives and performs and is an excellent crowd reader. His speakers were so sleek and the bass was deep and beautiful.
I gave a huge list of a wide range of music and from that and his own, chose exactly what the crowd wanted. You have to be ok with not hearing every song you recommend because it doesn't matter if you want Doja Cat beats....if 90% of the floor is over the age of 45 they might leave your dance floor waiting for The Bee Gees to play. I let him do what he does and was impressed.
He's just smart and is the full package. He blends in and doesn't take the spotlight. The funny thing is that I initially wanted an entertainer MC/DJ. I realized quickly that if you got someone who knows how to lead the night with needed announcements (dinner, first dance, group photo, intros, grand exits etc), reads a crowd, and transitions music/ song-layer mixes like they were born to do it, your party doesn't need a cheesy MC.
He was patient, organized, had great suggestions to our agenda timeline and was super flexible with my last minute submission of my homemade 1st dance medley. So many of our guests complimented him during and after our wedding. Even months later they've remembered how impressive his skills were, which makes me proud that we chose him.
I would for sure hire him again so you need to hire this man! He was the real deal.
Thanks Justin!
Justin was the ultimate host and DJ at the greatest party of our lives — our wedding!
He was extremely accommodating during the lead-up to our big day, especially during a spell of COVID worries (Spring 2021).
He also made it so easy to ensure that our favorite jams were ready to roll when guests got on the dance floor.
Most importantly, he kept the energy up and ensured we all had a phenomenal time.
We opted to have Justin light up our outdoor reception venue and he absolutely nailed it.
I can’t recommend Justin enough. He truly was the lynchpin for a night we’ll never forget.
Justin killed it! My wife and I had our wedding back in October after postponing due to COVID. Justin was very professional through the entire process and had fantastic attention to detail. Our reception was a blast! The music was great and he really captured the vibe that we were going for on our day. If we could give JAS 6 stars, we would!
DJ JAS was absolutely amazing at our wedding. He kept the energy up the whole time, was so great to work with prior to the event to really understand what we were looking for and executed it flawlessly! The sound quality was perfect from ceremony to open dance floor. Our friends and family were dancing the entire night!
Justin was an absolutely amazing DJ for our wedding! To start with, he was super easy to work with and reasonably priced. He had a swanky website to note every music preference you might have in great detail (particular songs/genres for different events, specific timeframes and versions of the songs, etc). He made us feel at-ease knowing our music would be exactly the way we wanted, and he delivered on that. Justin even rented us out a mini microphone/speaker to use the night before the event, which saved us a big headache. As far as music selection during the dance portion, he kept things varied but still incorporated most of our requested songs. He had just the right mix of original versions of songs with dance/electronic versions, and he kept the crowd energized all night. Many guests of all ages and persuasions came up to us during the reception to tell us how amazing the DJ was. Can't recommend him enough!
Justin was so good it’s hard for me to pick a place to start, let’s go with the fact that he kept us on his calendar for over a year, checked in with us consistently and his whole process made a normally stressful time very smooth and chill. Justin went out of his way to make our wedding an event to remember, he purchased a new projector to show our wedding video, this on top of his already amazing setup with quality sound and lights. Honestly his extra effort made the event outstanding. All of this and I haven’t even talked about how great of a DJ he is, there was never a lull In the music, never a dull moment throughout in fact, the mix was outstanding and it never felt too forced, in fact he took all of our favorite songs and made them all flow as if they belonged together. He deserves all 5 stars and all of your business, just an outright great professional and all around amazing DJ, hire him now!
All I have to say is, if you’re considering Justin for your event, TRUST ME…BOOK HIM! I have never experienced so much attention to detail, great communication, extremely user friendly detail(s) forms, and absolutely executed brilliantly! I can’t wait to come back to California to have something celebrate just so we can hire him again! There aren’t enough characters allowed for me to keep raving on how wonderful Justin was! Highly beyond highly recommend him!
Justin DJ'd for our wedding in Malibu and we couldn't have been more thrilled with his work!!! Justin was very responsive and professional throughout the entire planning process. He made great recommendations regarding the timing of grand entrances/opening up the dance floor/cake cutting/general flow to the evening. Many of our guests raved about how the cocktail hour music was perfect - loud enough to hear but able to hold a conversation without shouting. And our guests had such a great time dancing the night away! We had a mixed crowd of older and younger adults and Justin tailored the music choices to fit the mood for everybody to enjoy! Guests were on the dance floor until the last song of the evening! We also had Justin provide uplighting for our semi-indoor reception which turned out beautifully. Justin was so easy to work with and my husband and I highly recommend hiring JAS Productions for your next event/wedding!
Music style: 90's hip hop/R&B, Motown, Bay Area rap, soft rock
Justin is an amazing DJ and we HIGHLY recommend using JAS Productions for your wedding, or really any event for that matter! He is extremely knowledgeable of the wedding planning process and “day of” coordination and was prompt to answer any questions we had. He did his best to accommodate any special requests and we were very pleased with his services. And maybe most importantly for all on the budgeting concerns out there, his prices were very reasonable, even more so when you take into consideration he handled the MC duties and kept the whole night on schedule. And he even provided additional lighting. Trust us, get the up-lighting package! It made for some amazing photos from the reception. Look no further for your DJ, this is the one you want. Justin is professional, knowledgeable, and keeps the party going! We couldn’t be happier with his service and got tons of compliments from our guests with how great the music was and what a fun wedding we had!
Justin was absolutely wonderful from start to finish for our wedding reception 9/11/21. We were a Covid wedding last year and had to move our large reception to 2021 . As stressful as it was to re-plan our wedding Justin was great with his quick replies and new availability dates . After our first meeting with Justin I knew our DJ was something we did not need to worry about from that point forward. Justin was professional and very organized. He played music that matched our party perfectly and our dance floor was always full! Justin even customized a hybrid father daughter dance blending two songs together and it was seamless. Justin truly helped make our reception a party we will never forget !
Justin was awesome to work with. Both my wife and I felt like he truly understood the style of music we were going for in each part of our wedding. A few simple web forms followed by a zoom/telephone call made it clear he was on top of his game. During the event we were sad to separate from the party and music for photos because it was totally our favorite! It felt amazing to hit the dance floor later on in the night and just hear those hits that connect exactly with what you wanted, mixed in between songs that were right on point with the vibe of the wedding goers. Well done Justin, thank you!
Justin was a pleasure to work with through the entire process. He was very accommodating when we had to postpone our original date due to COVID. His ability to read the crowd and keep the dancefloor moving was exceptional! We purchased DJ services, uplighting, and our photo booth from Justin. He made the planning process extremely easy
I would highly recommend JAS productions!
I would totally reccomend DJ Jas! This past weekend Riding Tandem had the pleasure of working with this company and it was nothing but wonderful!
Justin was incredible. I must admit - my husband and I are very picky when it comes to our musical taste. Also, we had a very eclectic wedding crowd - so we had to walk a delicate line of choosing music we loved and music that would keep our guests on the dance floor. We gave Justin a diverse library of music to choose from and he executed it perfectly. Justin tracked the momentum of the crowd and played all the right music at all the right times - resulting in an all-night dance party. We had to ask him multiple times to stay later because our guests did not want to leave. Would highly recommend!
Our music taste: Hiphop (90's - 2000's), jazz, funk, and pop.
I don't even know where to begin.... so when you are picking wedding vendors you want to always make sure you are picking someone who does their job and gives 100 percent of their time and energy into your wedding. Well, Justin gave Frank and I 250 percent of his time and energy. Not only was this wedding done while having regular wedding stress but it was done across the country (I am from NY) Justin Was our Dj for our welcome party since we flew 50 guest out, not only did he provide music, but he provided us a open air photo-booth for our guest to be entertained. It was a wonderful option since I didn’t want a “regular bulky photo booth” On the following Saturday which was our wedding day, Justin did the music and lighting for our wedding. He did an amazing job. He created our "logo" that was on our invitation in light on the dance floor. I was amazed when I seen everything come together. Just done to perfection!
All the times leading up to our party he spoke with us on FaceTime and always answered our calls when we had questions and needed to talk (on a side note, since we are from NYC, I have many vendors that I flew out to be at the wedding. Justin was hand picked by his professionalism and willingness to be there for us a year ago on a previous trip). Justin went above and beyond and has so many more services than just DJ. He put time and effort into everything he does and is the absolute best. When I go back to the east coast, we are flying Justin out for our future parties. He gives his undivided attention to you and he was there for us when we needed. He was much more than what we could have ever asked for in a DJ. This is something we will never forget and are truly grateful for. He made us feel at ease throughout the entire process, this is exactly what you need in a vendor. Being a bride is stressful enough but when you are planning a wedding across the country , you need people who are willing to step up and help you. We would have not been able to pull this wedding off if it wasn't for Justin. Thank you Justin. You are the best.
We loved the music and he really helped the evening and program flow so smoothly. It was great to be able to just sit back and enjoy the reception without needing to worry about our timeline. We also appreciated all of your help and guidance during the planning process.
Working with Justin was so stress-free and easy. We trusted his expert opinion and left much of the nitty gritty decisions up to him. It was so wonderful to be able to just sit back and enjoy the reception without needing to worry about our timeline or other decisions. Justin coordinated and worked well with our other vendors to ensure that we were on schedule and that our program flowed and ran smoothly during the lead-up and day of the wedding. We really appreciated his help and guidance during the planning process. In addition, his equipment and set up worked like a dream and was nicely unobtrusive in the background, which we appreciated in our photos. We also added his up-lighting services, which really made our venue (Glen Annie Golf Club) look extra special and beautiful.
Justin is a great DJ/MC. He recently did our wedding reception and everyone had a great time. Our dance floor was packed all night long. He did a great job of incorporating our wide array of music preferences. He transitioned music styles easily as the night progressed. Justin is professional, invested in your event and very interested in making sure that all your guests are happy. He also gives great music advice!

We had the best wedding with DJ JAS at Circle Bar B Ranch. He's been a DJ at this venue many times, so it made it extremely easy to work with him. He knows how to set everything up, so the sounds runs smoothly - from the mics at the ceremony, to speeches at dinner, to the dancing. Our friends loooved the dancing! He's music kept everyone on the dance floor! He did an amazing job and I'd highly recommend him!
Justin was great! He communicated with us several times between booking until the wedding. I appreciate how well he worked with my coordinator, officiant and other vendors. He was an amazing DJ and honored our requests while also mixing songs. We left cocktail and dinner music up to him and I was amazed at his choices! I highly recommend him. Our guests did not stop dancing until the music did! His website is super friendly and easy to use too. Our wedding was at the Moxi Museum in Santa Barbara and it has three stories, he set up speakers on all levels so guests could hear what was playing in the dance floor at all times.
Working with Justin was an absolute pleasure. He is very knowledgeable about sound, and lighting, and will make sure your wedding or special event is one to remember. He will custom make the playlist to fit your exact style and needs. As a person, he is very responsive, easy to work with, and goes above and beyond. We can’t recommend him strongly enough!
DJ Jas (Justin) helped us with our wedding day and he was professional, knowledgeable, respectful and attentive to our wedding details. His service included DJ, even timeline and media (slide show).
Justin made the coordination process run smoothly, his service is exceptional and he goes above and beyond. Justin was creative and he was able to highlight and blend our unique cultures by playing a variety of music for all ages and guests. Thank you, Justin!
Justin helped us with our wedding at Hummingbird Nest Ranch and we cannot say enough about the amazing job he did. He went above and beyond what his normal duties would be to ensure everything was exactly the way we wanted and our day was perfect. His attention to detail and professionalism was excellent. And not only he is truly a great professional, but turns out he is a rocking DJ also. Our friends and family all commented on how great the dance party and music was at the wedding. Thank you Justin for making our day exactly what we wanted and one we will never forget!
DJ JAS was absolutely incredible to work with. He was so extremely kind, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the planning process, and made excellent suggestions whenever we needed advice. We did not hire a planner or day of coordinator, and JAS worked closely with the caterer and venue to make every part of our day seamless - we couldn’t have done it without his help! His music selection for cocktail hour and dinner was perfect, and his mixes kept everyone on the dance floor the whole reception. Hire him! you won’t regret it for a second.
Justin was a fantastic DJ at our wedding! We had so many compliments on our DJ and the music. He was very attentive to what we wanted and even more attentive toward reading the energy of the crowd. He was also on task with the order of events (intros, speeches, etc.). Overall, I would recommend Justin to DJ your event. He really took the time to ensure what we wanted was present at our wedding.
We just hired Justin Stern as our DJ for our Santa Barbara wedding about a month ago. He was fantastic! His site was very helpful for organizing the music we wanted to hear, and he was very accommodating with our requests.
We got a lot of compliments from our friends and family on the music for the entire night, so he really helped make our wedding great.
We would absolutely recommend JAS Productions!
Justin DJed my wedding this past May and I still think about how excellent he was. I spoke with sooo many DJ's when I was trying to find someone and Justin stood out from our very first conversation. He was the only person I spoke with who actually had something to say about how he thinks about music and how he puts sets together. His expertise and skill were obvious, and were what made me want to work with him. I am so glad that I did.
The sound for our wedding was (I think) more elaborate/involved than usual. We did everything outside on our property, and so we didn't really have any sound "infrastructure" to work with. Justin went out to see the venue well beforehand so he could properly plan exactly what we needed. We wound up needing three different sound areas - one for the ceremony, one for the reception, and one for the dance floor. Justin set everything up effortlessly and the sound in each location was excellent.
Justin communicated with me continuously throughout the process. On one phone call, I guess I sounded a bit harried and so he asked me what he could do to help ease my stress. Justin's focus while planning was always on making sure that he understood my vision exactly and did what I wanted. I didn't want to do a lot of typical wedding things (no tosses, we didn't have a wedding party to introduce, etc.) and Justin just rolled with all of my requests and ideas. He would offer advice when I asked (or when I clearly needed it) and all of his suggestions were helpful. On the day of, Justin also helped keep things moving along and on track.
In terms of the actual music, it was so good!! My friends were shocked at how perfect the music was during the reception. When we moved into the dancing portion of the night, things got even better. I wanted a 90's hip hop dance party, but with other songs in the mix that would encourage my parents and their friends to get on the dance floor. It worked! And everyone had the best time. There was one point where my cousin requested a very important song from my past and almost as soon as he had requested it, Justin started cutting in its beat to the song that was already playing. It was so impressive! I honestly can't remember leaving the dance floor more than a couple of times once things got started.
Justin also provided up-lighting which made our venue look like a beautiful fairyland! Hiring Justin was one of the best decisions I made for the wedding and I can't imagine what our night would have been like without him. I can't recommend him enough!
Justin 'DJ JAS' did a fabulous job at our wedding at my Uncle's estate in Montecito on July 20, 2018. He was great to work with- providing sound for our ceremony, reception and the after-party. He had appropriate mics for the different parts of our wedding, i.e. wireless for the ceremony and hand-held for the speeches, as well as software on his website that made it very easy to coordinate what music we wanted and when. He was communicative about his needs and expectations and worked with our coordinator the day off to pull off a flawless event! So grateful! <3
Justin was helpful and supportive throughout the whole planning process. His online tool for song selections was an easy way to add our favorite songs as we thought of them over the course of our planning months. The sound was great day of and he kept the party going all night! Our guests kept commenting the next day how much they danced and how the music never stopped. One guest got his card for her upcoming wedding. I can’t recommend him highly enough!
Justin was amazing! He kept people on the dance floor the entire time, and our guests complimented the music throughout the whole night. We also really appreciated that Justin periodically checked in with us about timing and let us know what was coming next. We appreciated his attention to detail and aesthetics, from his nearly invisible speakers to his fantastic uplighting (which looked amazing in the photos!). He helped us plan the timeline for the cocktail hour and reception, and it was great to have his expertise. From all of our meetings before the wedding, we knew we would be in excellent hands. Justin ran the party, so we were able to sit back (and dance) and just enjoy the night!
Justin was so great. He was more than a DJ. He helped our whole wedding day run smoothly. He was professional and it never felt like he was putting on a show or having too much of a presence. Our guests all literally danced the entire night! I would hire him again in a second.
Justin was the best DJ ever! All of our guests came up to us during the reception and the next day to tell us how awesome he was. The dance floor was exactly what we wanted - high energy, no pauses between songs, and a perfect playlist! He ran the evening perfectly with speeches, introductions, background music, etc. We've been to a lot of awkward weddings (where the DJ thinks the show is all about him/her) so it was important to us to have a great DJ who made everyone feel comfortable, excited, and helped the night flow while not being the center of attention. He was extremely easy to work with throughout the wedding planning process - responsive, always on time, and made sure all of our requests were noted. Without Justin, our wedding truly wouldn't have been as memorable for us or for our guests. We really cannot recommend him enough!
Justin is very detail oriented and clearly passionate about his work. My music needs were unique because my family provided Justin with songs from our home country. Justin did such a good job with incorporating our cultural traditions into the reception. Highly recommended!
Planning a wedding out of state was no easy feat but I'm thrilled that we chose Justin for our Santa Barbara wedding last month. I was already overwhelmed with all the different choices for our vendors and through all the sea of responses filled with estimates and details, Justin stood out. He was prompt, friendly, and quick to set up a call to get to really know us and make sure he was a right fit for our needs. He is knowledgeable, professional, thorough, and communication was amazing throughout the whole process with even almost immediate responses. He made the effort to meet up with us at our reception venue when we were in town to official meet us, walk over the venue setup, and provided suggestion for lighting, which we ended up going with. it really gave our venue a great ambiance.
Everything was seamlessly perfect the day of the wedding. Audio for our ceremony was great - everyone was able to hear everything clearly (it was outdoors for 120 guests) - we had live acoustic music, track for my procession, and only the pastor was miked but it picked up my husband and I clearly as well. We provided a playlist for during reception dinner but gave Justin a few examples for the cocktail and dance hour and he nailed it. I had compliments during the night and after the wedding about how good the music was. All songs were fun, well-mixed so they flowed into one another, and it was overall a great vibe. All my guests had so much fun- the floor was packed and they danced all the way until the last song.
We can't thank Justin enough for everything. He was a pleasure to work with and was one of the vendors I completely trusted that he would handle everything and be on top of it. He made the wedding planning a little less stressful and made the wedding amazing!
We’re so glad we hired Justin for our big day. He made everything so easy and he is so organized, it helped a ton. He had great input and suggestions on our timeline, he was very thorough and you need that for your big day. Communication was great with Justin from the beginning to the very end. He did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception music and did a fantastic job at feeling out the crowd and what they wanted. We were pretty specific about what we wanted and what we didn’t want and he delivered. He also did our uplighting and we sort of left it up to him to pick a color that would work well with the space and it looked great. I would totally hire him again for anything in the future!
Justin was fantastic. So happy that we went with him for our big day. He handled the sound and music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We also had him do our uplighting at the reception, which was a fantastic value add on. Justin stayed in touch with us the months and weeks leading up to the wedding to make sure he knew exactly what we wanted. His online tools were very easy to use. The dance floor was on fire most of the night and we were very happy with Justin.
We enjoyed working DJ JAS Productions! Justin made the process easy and fun. The two things every bride and groom needs when it comes to the wedding planning process. The song selections Justin had were outstanding and he kept are dance floor full the whole night. We also had him do our indoor and outdoor lighting which was prefect and tied into our theme (gold and white). I would highly recommend DJ JAS Productions for your wedding or ay big event in your life.
Recently used JAS Productions for my wedding in Camarillo, CA on 6/10/17. I am extremely happy I did! Justin did such an amazing job. I can't say enough good things about him. He is extremely organized, professional, and thorough.
He has an online tool where you enter your timeline (which is very helpful if you don't have a wedding planner, which I didn't), choose songs that are "must plays", and many other details.
I entered about 20 must-play songs and he took it from there- we had a packed dance floor the entire time and I did not hear one song I didn't love.
During a phone meeting leading up to the wedding, I gave Justin some ideas on instrumental music to play during the guest entrance, cocktail hour, etc. I got so many compliments on the music Justin played during every phase of my wedding.
We also used his uplighting in our reception hall which looked fantastic!
My wedding would not have been half as great if I had not used Justin and JAS Productions- I HIGHLY recommend!
We live in Minnesota and had a destination wedding in Santa Barbara, CA at the Fess Parker Hotel. Being from out of state, we thought it would be hard to find a wedding coordinator and DJ. After doing some research we found Justin Stern for our DJ and Karen Dicks for our wedding coordinator from JAS Productions. I must be honest – we didn’t know how it would work with us being so far and working with people so far away.
From our first skype meeting with Karen, we were blown away. We had a few other Skype/calls with other coordinators but Karen was amazing. She is very passionate about what she does and she made sure that every detail for our wedding was down to a T. We honestly knew we were going to have a wedding and that was about it for the first call…no idea where to star. We had several Skype calls and she made me feel a lot more comfortable on how the wedding day was going to be. I originally didn’t know how much goes into a wedding or what I wanted décor, etc.…she helped me narrow it down and gave me her opinion on things I was undecided about or I didn’t have experience doing. We worked on the wedding day timeline regarding when the photographer was going to be there, the hairstylist, and the order of events for that day. She made sure every detail was just what we wanted our wedding day. Justin Stern our DJ was great as well. He made sure we had the perfect songs for our ceremony and if we wanted any songs specifically to play at our reception. He also provided the up-lighting at the Fess Parker. I choose the colors I wanted and he matched them perfectly. The song choices were awesome…the dance floor was never even remotely empty and several people came up to us afterwards and told us how great of a job he did.
On the day of our wedding, I tried not to think about what could go wrong…but unfortunately we had mother nature who decided right when our wedding party was giving their speeches to send a gust of wind storms in! I will be honest we were both freaking out because our reception was out in the Plaza Del Sol at the Fess Parker which is in an open coliseum area. Karen and Justin were AMAZING. We had a contingency meeting room at the Fess Parker in case anything was to go wrong. Karen and Justin took care of everything from coordinating with the hotel to get guests inside to bringing my cake inside the room (as the wind would have knocked it over). We didn’t have to worry about a thing! They made it so that if the wind did die down…guests could still come outside in the coliseum area to dance but the music would also be playing in the contingency room. I think I would have ended up crying without them, they made our night go perfectly even when we hit a few bumps in the road. They were awesome and I’m so glad we picked JAS Productions for our wedding coordination and DJ.
