DJ Kamayo Entertainment

s so wonderful. I was contacted by DJ Kamayo about who would be working our wedding and later Juan contacted me. I asked if we could meet in person and go over some details for the wedding and he was more than accommodating and very personable!!! After meeting with him we left feeling so excited and calm about our day, knowing he was going to take care of everything. During the reception he got the party started and everyone dancing!!! We had so many great compliments from guests about how fun the dance was and we would both agree. We were hesitant when first booking them because of the price, but let me tell you... THEY ARE WORTH IT!!!! We knew we wanted to have a fun party and they made that happen for us. He was really good about keeping us on track but not being too pushy when we got behind on our schedule. I have so much good to say about them :)

ailed us all the information we needed to select songs for our wedding. He met with us one more time before the wedding to finalize everything. I was nervous about having a DJ during the ceremony because most of the weddings I went to had live music, but it sounded beautiful. DJ Kamayo was able to incorporate all our special requests and ensured the entire event ran smoothly. All of our guests had a great time dancing! We strongly recommend you book DJ Kamayo for your wedding!

made it extra special. On top of that, he was a great MC and his equipment was top notch- you could hear everything we said during the ceremony and during the speeches. Thanks for a lot of fun and a great night! Definitely hire him if you can :)

DJ Kamayo made everything every super easy for us and made sure nothing was awkward the whole event and that everyone had a great time. He played all of our requests and kept our guests and family dancing the whole time. He knows how to keep energy going on the dance floor!

Nick made sure we were relaxed and enjoying ourselves the entire. He had our dance floor packed all night. He played all of our songs requests and also played TONS of great music we forgot to put down on our wedding playlist.

r expectations & went above & beyond to find a very special request of 10 Little Monkeys for my 3 year old niece mid reception. He kept the sound level perfect throughout the night & all our guests loved him. Definitely take advantage of the lighting package he offers, it makes a huge difference in setting the mood & really made our theme & color scheme pop...very well worth it.

wedding. When we met, Omid introduced us to Juan (DJ Kryptonite) and they offered to DJ together for no extra fee, with Juan handling the Spanish side of the MC and DJ duties. They were both friendly and great with all of our questions and we hired them on the spot. After the meeting, they emailed us a worksheet for song selections, as well as clips of popular songs for different parts of the big day to help us with ideas. We also opted to go for a little bit of reception lighting around the dance floor. The day of the wedding was wonderful. Everything at the ceremony went just like we asked. Omid's selection of music pre and post-ceremony was wonderful too. But the reception is where they blew us away. The mixture of English and Spanish music was perfect and sooo fun to dance to. They flowed perfectly together. Both sides of the family were up and dancing all night, and we're still getting compliments three months later on how fun the mix of music was. As for the MC duties, they were perfect there too. They weren't like some DJ's that get on microphone too much as is they just love the sound of their own voice. Lastly, even though we didn't notice, apparently Juan had a family emergency that prevented him from being present for the first half of the night. Everything was so perfect that when they told us we weren't upset at all, but they insisted on not accepting our tip for their services and apologized profusely. These two are definitely pros who take pride in their work and go out of their way to make your night wonderful. Don't hesitate to hire them.

ily while simultaneously keeping it professional. He is versatile and is the ideal DJ and Master of Ceremony for any event. Go ahead, cross this off your event to do list. I guarantee you won't be sorry! Thanks Kamayo! You are truly the BEST!

ple. Nick was all of this and then some. I got more comments at and after the wedding of how amazing the DJ was than I ever expecting. You really don't realize how important it is to have a great DJ, until you have a great DJ (or you have a really bad one because you obviously didn't read this review.) We met with Dave a couple times before hand to get to know each other and to go over details of the wedding, and that was great. He was super flexible, he kept reminding us that it is our day and we can do things in whatever order we wanted to, and he did just that. He got our guests up and dancing, he got them laughing and absolutely made sure we all had a wonderful time. We could not be happier with everything he did for us, and we would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a fantastic DJ!!

ectly. Almost everyone was on the dance floor by the end of the night!!

e. He definitely went above and beyond! He is a phenomenal DJ!

person, he was so professional and made to accommodate my needs. His website is easy to access, and his wedding music form made everything super easy for us. Then the day of the wedding came - DJ Kamayo was THE BEST. He was EXACTLY what we wanted. He asked me what I wanted, and if any guest tried to request something I did not want, he did not play it. (I had some jokester friends trying to fool him). Our crowd was on the dance floor all. night. long. I was amazed. My husband and I are not big dancers, but we were on that floor all night too!

music , dinner music, and dancing music and Nick had the dance floor packed. I cannot recommend him enough! He was the ultimate DJ for us, so happy he djed our wedding!

or 4 straight hours - all of the guests, all ages, all night. Thanks Ryan for everything.

the production (haze and fog machine, lasers, dimmable string lights and chandeliers, etc.) and you can tell he’s really into what he does- sound, equipment, music, and making sure you have an awesome wedding. He makes sure that his involvement in the wedding is about you. He isn’t too wordy with his announcements and speaks with confidence when he does. When we first met with him for a consultation meeting he let us know that if we want to make the entire playlist from start to finish and have him play it, then he is completely fine with that. We actually did do exactly that, but also let him know that we give him discretion to go with what works best (we’re not the pros here). He did a great job of looking at our list and getting a feel for what we want and throwing in some songs that matched perfectly throughout the night. He did a great job mixing and determining the best order of the songs. In addition to absolutely bringing it and more as a DJ, he was super proactive with some of the issues we were having with power and lighting (venue/rentals issue). My wife and I would see an issue and before she could get too worried I could see Omid going towards the problem and I’d tell her “Don’t worry. It looks like Omid is on it.” Apparently our catering kitchen even lost power at some point and Omid helped the situation by lending them a spare 100 ft. extension cord to plug into another power source. Lastly, he provided us with his analysis of some of the breakdowns we had from the evening. Ultimately we all had a great evening and the night remained special to us, but it was good to get an idea of what took place behind the scenes. Omid is a passionate guy who delivers, hands down. If you’re looking for a DJ for your party or wedding, I wholeheartedly recommend him and DJ Kamayo Entertainment! Thanks for everything Omid!!!

gimmicky moves or dance-off circles at our wedding. DJ Kamayo worked with us to create a one of a kind playlist ranging from Queen to Skrillex; The Beach Boys to The Chainsmokers; Neil Diamond to Lady Gaga... Referencing an apple playlist we put together with nearly 5 hours of music we love, plus a separate playlist of 25-30 must-hear songs, DJ Kamayo mixed an awesome set live on the spot complete with oldies, pop hits and EDM anthems. While there we're most definitely some pop mega hits from the likes of T Swift, Maroon 5 and Bruno Mars etc., everything felt fresh. While we wanted an original playlist, we didn't want it to be obscure; it's important to have those songs everyone knows. I never once got the sense that DJ Kamayo was mixng the same old wedding jams though. I could hear the filters, I could hear the beatmatching....This was a real DJ at work, there was no "just press play." DJ Kamayo also got us set up with a photo booth that our guests loved, and we got all the pictures taken in the booth that night emailed to us the next day. He brought extra lighting for the reception and checked with me repeatedly throughout the night just to see how things were going, keep us on schedule, etc. Lastly, he assumed the role of MC and coordinator and when he realized we didn't have one. Plus, I worked directly with DJ Kamayo from the first time we made contact. No third party to go through, easy payment system. Thank you so much for everything DJ Kamayo. We had a seriously epic night... I still can't believe you managed to mix Hey Soul Sister and Rogue - Nemesis in the same hour haha!!. The reception was better than we ever hoped and we are so glad we went with you. Much appreciated!!! Bride: He was amazing!!!! The groom said it best, but I will add that DJ Kamayo went above and beyond what I expected. The music was fantastic, he responded to the crowd, everything was perfect. SO HAPPY!

e music at the reception was fabulous. We gave Omid (DJ Kamayo) some very broad guidelines for the music and asked him to run with it; he did a great job, somehow getting people to dance (and they are NOT the dancing crowd). If you are looking for someone to also accommodate your super specific requests as well, Kamayo has an amazing guide website that can help you pick and choose all of your songs. He made the music selection process super easy for us. We could not be happier with DJ Kamayo. He was amazing in every way. Thank you for making our day the best day ever!

usic. Our crowd loves to dance and Nick did a great job mixing music to fit our crowd's taste. Very satisfied with Nick Dean, highly recommend him.

e was dancing and having the best time. One of my favorite moments from Kamayo was right before he announced us in for dinner and the first dance, he got our guests cheering for us and they continued to cheer through our whole dance routine. It was so encouraging and really made us feel loved.

id an amazing job of giving us the best of both worlds! Kamayo made it very easy to plan out the night with the music list template form he has on his website. We had our wedding at the Victorian in Santa Monica and Kamayo was absolutely amazing! We still get raves from guests about how wedding was so fun and it was largely in part to the song choices being able to have everything move smoothly throughout the wedding.

kept the energy level high throughout the night. So glad we booked him!

wedding dj trajectory of old first, then new stuff later. He had it all so interwoven that at one point my in-laws were dancing to DJ Kool, and later in the night played music that got the older generation back on the dance floor without losing the younger crowd. He was also in charge of announcing speeches and dinner, and did so seamlessly, without doing that weird show boaty thing DJ's sometimes do. A couple of times throughout the night Kamayo would come check in with us, and make sure everything was going well on our end. My favorite moment was when he asked whether we wanted to wait to announce the last song, or fool our guests with a last song announcement and then hit them with a 15 minute mash up. (We opted for the mash-up, obviously). Everyone is still telling us how awesome the music was. At the end of the night we told Kamayo that we're going to have to throw more big parties so he can come back and DJ again. We can't recommend him highly enough!

whole process was painless and so easy thanks to Nick. Everyone was done the way we wanted it and we're so grateful he djed our wedding in San Diego. Our friends and family loved him and so did we!!!!!

TH HIM! When guests had requests, he was quick to play it next and everyone loved the songs played to keep the dance floor full the entire night!

ce floor was PACKED the whole night and DJ Kamayo didn't miss a beat. I promise you will not regret choosing DJ Kamayo for your even. 5 stars all the way!

ich looked really good. And the icing on the cake, he was able to get photos from the photographer and play a slideshow on the TV's with pictures FROM OUR WEDDING DAY!!!!!!

tting, last dance, etc.). He is very professional and met with us twice to make sure we had all of the details finalized. He was well worth the money! Music can make or break your wedding party, and he definitely "made" the wedding reception. He is a really nice, good humored person, who is upbeat, positive, and always smiling. We knew we made the right choice the minute we met with him the first time. We signed the contract right then and there. We wanted a very classy wedding, and he delivered it perfectly. I cannot say enough good things.

s for the first time, we were anxious about every detail. Kamayo's laid back demeanor initially made us question whether he's on top of things. Well, he was and even provided some last minute solutions that were crucial to the ceremony & wedding. We wanted a 90's hip hop music theme and he delivered by building a classic hip hop playlist based on songs we suggested. The crowd went wild a few times because the music was "on the money." He was even able to play a few requests at seconds notice because of impromptu speeches. He was professional, easy to work with, and very dependable. We'd recommend him to anyone who is looking for a wedding DJ in Los Angeles.

stateside and abroad, so the music had to be ON POINT. We wanted someone who would not only play the music we like, but that would play it at the right time and mix it well. Nick knew his music well and played it VERY well!

made. The music was everything we wanted and more! Everybody was raving about his professionalism, mixing ability, and overall quality of service. With 150+ guests he adjusted volume during cocktail hour and then increased the volume for our dance party! One quote from my mom the Mother of the Bride was "WOW, your DJ keeps mixing in great songs before the other ends and I just can't get off the dance floor!" Pretty much sums up our night :)

uests could enjoy music as they arrived and were seated. My husband and I picked a a handful of songs that we really wanted played (for our first dance, garter toss/bouquet toss, etc.) and Juan came up with the rest. I loved every song he played. He learned enough about my husband and I to get a real feel for our music tastes and PERFECTED it! He's like a human Pandora app. We had multiple people comments on how many great songs were played! The music he chose kept everyone dancing for the entire night! Honestly, my wedding would have had several hiccups if it weren't for Juan. He made sure that everything was done according to schedule. He would find my groom and I when it came time for the next event and would inquire if we were ready or not. If so, he would announce it. If not, he would wait until we were ready. I would choose him over and over again as our DJ!

up right away along with a template and loads of music so we could start our music list. He made the music selection process so easy for us. We met with Kamayo in person a few weeks before the event to go over everything and knew immediately that we had made the right choice. He was very friendly and offered a lot of suggestions on song choices, schedule of events, etc. Kamayo interacted well with our guests and got everyone up out of their seats to dance. The music selection was perfect and he helped to keep the night flowing smoothly.

DJs just didn't interest us - and we love to dance! Kamayo played all the songs on our must play list and kept us dancing throughout the evening. Everything was perfect and I couldn't be happier. We also used their super affordable photo booth, which of course we and everyone else loved.

J (A friend of mine who says her husband never dances, told me she was blown away that he was out on the dance floor all night!). In addition to being an amazing DJ, the best part about Kamayo is that he is such a professional--so on top of things, from the beginning to the end, and he really took the time to meet with us and get to know our musical tastes. We couldn't have been happier with our decision to hire him! He made everything so easy for us.

d said "I can't believe your DJ is playing this song, it's amazing!" People were on the dance floor all night, and every song he played was awesome. He did a fantastic job of incorporating all the music we wanted and also playing music that both younger and older people would enjoy. Omid also MC'd the wedding beautifully. There was no "cheesy wedding DJ" vibe at all. He made sure that everything ran smoothly without him having to be on the microphone a lot. He kept the talking to a minimum which is what we wanted. Working with DJ Kamayo was a pleasure. He was incredibly professional, responsive, organized and is just a very nice person. Before our wedding, he gave us a very detailed sheet with tons of music genres and songs, and asked us to mark it up, so he could get an idea about what music styles we liked. We then had some very lengthy calls to go over the music list, so he could make sure he knew exactly what we liked (and didn't). Kamayo definitely paid attention and the wedding was filled with some of our most favorite songs--even one's that I had forgotten how much I loved! The music was one of the things I was the most nervous about for the wedding--as it can make or break a party. Kamayo totally made the party! I cannot say enough complimentary things about him!

treated us to drinks. He was also available to talk over a phone call. We wanted our DJ to be entertaining, play games and play good music. It was so difficult to find a DJ for this match but Kamayo really owned up to it!!! Thank you so much for making our day special Kamayo!

rompt and succinct in answering questions, returning emails and phone calls. He is very professional. Unlike some of the other DJ's I contacted, he was not pushy in getting us to sign a contract, or include any extras. He was totally focused on working with us to give us exactly what we want, within our budget. Once we hired Mike, the process was easy. We had a few conversations with him to set the tone, overall goals, and few special custom details we wanted to include into the event. He has a simple system to set up some "must-play" "like-to-play" and "don't-play" songs prior to the event. While we did utilize those song lists, we knew it didn't have to be comprehensive and we did not spend a lot of time making a "play list." Part of hiring a great DJ is having the trust to know that if we want to hear A & B, he knows he can mix in X, Y, & Z. He was even flexible and skilled enough to accommodate a last minute, during-the-event song request into the very well mixed grand finale.

We never felt nervous either. He made sure we were relaxed the whole time as well. Our friends and family absolutely loved DJ Kamayo and everyone asked for his card at the end. We couldn't be more satisfied with him.

o playing music and making announcements.

per cool up-lighting...different colors to fit the theme. I have to say, hands down, DJ Kamayo was absolutely incredible. And with everything he offers, their prices are extremely reasonable. A+ =)

d fast, I contacted him immediately months before my wedding and was immediately happy and relieved that he responded so quickly. He told me to feel comfortable in giving him any song list I wanted and the fact that if I had a few songs I wanted the specific timing of or if I needed a few songs to be combined together that he would be able to edit songs as well. A DJ, music editor, lighting technician and an organized coordinator all rolled into one his services were absolute perfection. He set up the blue lights I had wanted for my winter wonderland themed wedding. He was able to get guests together to take part in my favorite soul train line dance (and trust me this was not easy with the smorgasbord of age ranges we had at our wedding). Guests I never expected to dance or know that they don’t dance were on the dancefloor and even doing some crazy moves. I received so many compliments on the type of ambiance he provided. He definitely “wears a lot of hats” throughout the entire night as he was always keeping me in the loop with the schedules, what was going on for the day, even making sure I was calm and carefree. He definitely just doesn’t dj but is proactive in making sure everyone is having fun and safe. For example, I noticed a couple of water drops on the dancefloor and some soda spills. Prior to just going to call a member of the staff over, DJ KAMAYO took it upon himself to grab a towel and immediately started wiping the floor. Of course the staff member arrived right away but you would be surprised how many weddings or events I have attended where there was a lack of care in any staff member. An all-around nice and caring guy, he is on it. He knows his music, knows his stuff, and gives you a wonderful mix and of the engaged couples song list as well his. You never have to say something twice with him as he is “on it.” I can’t wait to see my wedding video so I can dance again. He hosts and keeps the dance floor packed and even makes sure the bride and groom get to sit down for a few minutes and eat. Trust me very important!!! Make sure to book him asap! DJ KAMAYO IS THE CRÈME DE LA CRÈME and I will always be using him. His presence definitely made our day and night even more special than it already was. Thank you DJ KAMAYO!!!! - Sera & Trevor 11.22.15

can't believe your DJ is playing this song, it's amazing!" People were on the dance floor all night, and every song he played was awesome. He did a fantastic job of incorporating all the music we wanted and also playing music that both younger and older people would enjoy. Kamayo also MC'd the wedding beautifully. There was no "cheesy wedding DJ" vibe at all. He made sure that everything ran smoothly without him having to be on the microphone a lot. We loved him! :)

d all of our questions and got a feel for what we were looking for in our wedding dj. He then sent us music suggestions to help us with our wedding music playlist. Included lots of website links to get ideas which helped ALOT! Once the date got closer, we met again with DJ Kamayo and went over the music and timeline. We were surprisingly calm and relaxed thanks to all the help from DJ Kamayo. The actual wedding was simple spectacular. Everything went perfect from start to finish. The ceremony was flawless. We used his wireless microphone and it sounded crystal clear. For the grand entrance, DJ Kamayo did a great job of saying everyone's names and also getting all of our guests on their feet and clapping once we walked in. It was exactly what we wanted. Later on for the dancing, he just took it to another level and got everyone up and moving. We loved it. All in all, absolutely incredible job by DJ Kamayo. He does so much more than just dj-ing. Simply outstanding.

uch a good DJ. I really hope my friends get him to dj their weddings!

c template so we could start our music , and also sent us a bunch of music suggestions which helped tremendously since we weren't too keen on wedding music. Finally the wedding day, DJ Kamayo kept us calm and relaxed throughout. From the ceremony till the very end of the reception. He played a great mix of music to get all of our guests dancing and played ALL of our own requests that we had asked him to play. He did a great job on the mic getting everyone's attention when he needed to. Overall he was incredible and made our wedding as good as it could possibly be. We can't thank DJ Kamayo enough!

m glad my wife chose Kamayo our wedding day! When it came to dancing he played the right songs and the right times the entire time. My friends are still telling me about how much they liked him.

one goin' As for dancing, dj kamayo is just incredible. He plays exactly the right songs at the right times and makes it sound very smooth and clear the whole time. He wasn't on the mic too much either which is really really liked. Overall, he was magnificent.

y good on the mic and had everyone's attention got everyone up and clapping once he announced me and my husband. Later when we finally got into dancing, we couldn't stop. He really kept the energy going and made it feel like we were at a nightclub. The LED lighting he provided was totally worth it. Gave the dancefloor that extra touch to make it fun to dance and move to. And on top of everything, he was so easy to work with and always kept us relaxed! Highly highly recommend him!

We ended up booking him for our wedding!
