Matt absolutely nailed it at our wedding! From the start, he was awesome with communication and planning, really listening to what we wanted and making us feel totally comfortable that he had everything under control. On the night, he kept the dance floor packed with amazing music that had everyone up and moving. So many of our guests came up to tell us how much they loved the music and that it was one of the best wedding playlists they’d heard. Matt really made the night feel like the best party ever. If you want a DJ who knows how to bring the fun and keep things smooth, Matt’s your guy!

We couldn't have asked for a better DJ for our special night! Matt was absolutely amazing. All throughout the night I had people come up to me stating that the music choice was best. Matt was so good at reading the crowd. Even when we had to up the timeline, Matt did so well with keeping it flowing.

I want to start off by saying how awesome working with Matt was. I searched high and low to find the right person to DJ my wedding and I really could not have found a better option than him. While we were planning the course of the night Matt even pointed out a few things that I had totally overlooked, which really made me feel like he went the extra step to help. He also sang live during our cocktail hour which really elevated the whole night! I really could not recommend him and his talent more! If you are like me and are having a hard time finding a DJ, look no further.

Matt was absolutely amazing!! He is so kind and was a joy to work with. He is an expert on vibes and getting people dancing! I have gotten so many compliments about how great our music was and how it was the fullest dance floor people have ever seen at a wedding. My husband and I were pretty picky on the type of music we wanted and he NAILED it!! He definitely exceeded our expectations and we are so happy he was apart of our day!

Working with Matt was incredible. We had a very specific vision for the music for our wedding, and Matt exceeded expectations. We made the decision to hire him within the first few minutes of our first meeting, and he continually impressed from there. He was not just respectful of our non traditional wedding, but he embraced, added great suggestions, and delivered a stellar performance. Our guests were delighted with his skills and the dance floor stayed busy all night. We appreciated his insights into lighting, mics, music, transitions. He nailed it. Pricing was more than fair, payments were easy, contracts/insurance were understandable.

Matt is incredible!! He truly made our wedding experience better. Incredibly talented musician with a very broad range (he performed acoustic guitar during our ceremony and cocktail hour), and then did an amazing job during the reception of mixing up songs and keeping the party going. Also very kind, thoughtful, and flexible - spent lots of time with us before the wedding talking through music preferences and "vibe" we were going for. He's also quickly responsive, and we feel like we delivered an outstanding value for the price charged. Would love to work with Matt again, and cannot recommend him enough! HE IS AMAZING!

DJ Matt was incredible! From the first interview we had with him, until the moment he played our last dance, we felt as if he truly cared about us and understood that he was contributing to one of the most important days of our lives. We are low key, reserved people, and at first were hesitant about hiring a DJ that would make it too much of a clubby scene. Before we had a chance to tell him so, he started introducing himself, and his vision for weddings matched closely to what we had in mind. We told him our vision, and not only did he not judge us, but he also totally understood and was happy to help us make our vision come true.After our interview with Matt, we looked at each other and both knew we wanted to hire him. There were other great candidates for sure, but we knew it in our gut after one call with Matt.
Another great benefit of hiring Matt, is that he also provides the option to play live music. Although we were taking pictures during the cocktail hour, when he was playing live, we were able to listen in the background and he sounded great. He even learned a song we asked him about two weeks before the wedding and played it. He built the playlist around what genres we like and filled in songs to fit the vibe and the crowd. The night was so much fun. The music vibe made everyone feel happy and comfortable to dance. It was such a special moment when all of our family and friends dancing together. Throughout the entire night, we had so many guests come to tell us how amazing the DJ was. A guest who himself is a DJ told me “your DJ is great”. We would frequently hear “oh I love this song!” from the crowd. We even had a guest come to tell us she was so impressed with the choice of prelude music. We will always cherish that Matt was part of our wedding. Last thing to say is, on the day of the wedding, he had such a friendly and comfortable vibe, and we could tell that he was genuinely happy to be there and celebrate with us. DJ Matt is a great DJ and more importantly, a special person. Thank you, Matt! – T&J

If you're a music snob throwing a wedding in San Diego or Boise, and you don't want your reception dance mix to sound like every other wedding you've been to, hire DJ Matt Phipps. He has a great ear for what gets people dancing while also being responsive to your tastes. Full disclosure: we gave him the longest "do not play" list I think anyone has ever given a wedding DJ, and he managed to give us a great party that guests were raving about after.
Thank you, Matt!

Matt was an incredible DJ, was so easy to work with and our guests had an incredible time dancing the night away with Matt's music! The equipment was very impressive and the sound was of the highest quality. Matt was incredibly flexible over the last 2+ years when we had to adjust our dates 3 times, and we can't thank him enough for that!

Matt was so wonderful to work with to plan our wedding day music and emcee-ing. We wanted a DJ who would do an exceptional job of getting people to dance and setting the mood. We gave him songs and genres we liked and he asked us some questions on what general styles were a hard no for us and which we loved. From that he created an amazing wedding sound that people were complimenting all night and after the wedding. He had literally everybody on the dance floor until the end. He does a cool thing where you pick a last song that everybody knows and can sing to- it was such a great way to end the night (or get the momentum going for the after party). His knowledge and experience working with our wedding venue, Darlington House, was also a plus, as he brought along lighting for the rose garden that worked perfectly. We can't recommend him enough to anybody searching. Ps- he can also play guitar if you want one person who can do live music for ceremony or cocktail hour and a DJ for the reception. Exceptional guy and exceptional value.

DJ Matt was one of the best decisions we made with wedding planning! We live in Washington DC, but the wedding was in La Jolla. No problem, he met us in a Panera when we visted the summer before the wedding, calmly explaining all the little details, and asking all the questions to get to know us better as a couple and what our musical tastes are. Gay wedding, with pop diva music as a theme? NO PROBLEM, he was so excited about it and had some many great ideas. On the big day, so many little details I was anxious about, I had no reason to be. He mic'd the officiant, had mics for the readers, played music before the ceremony and as our recessional in coordination with live artists. Unlike some wedding DJ's, he did NOT make the reception about him, constantly giving needless commentary and cracking bad jokes, he was very low-key and stuck to the introductions and major announcements and such. People were dancing all night long, to the best music. Such a talented great guy, we're thrilled with our choice to hire him.

Matt rocked it at our wedding in Point Loma, CA. He was extremely helpful all the way up to the big day by offering great suggestions from everything to the flow of the music, to the best music to keep our guests on the dance floor when it came to that point. He worked closely with us throughout the process to make sure the music that played at the wedding matched our personalities.
Matt was super personable throughout the wedding and very accomodating with any requests during the event. I would hands down choose Matt over anyone else for any wedding in the San Diego area!

Matt Phipps was our DJ from Choice Entertainment - and from the moment we contacted him until the day of our wedding he was so on top of his game! Every email we sent him was answered immediately, and he even gave us his personal cell phone number so if we had any questions we could text/call him to get a response even more promptly. On top of his amazing professionalism, we were blown away by how wonderfully he ran our reception. Our dance floor was packed the entire night, and that was because Matt really understood what we wanted, read the crowd and kept checking in with us on music we wanted to hear, and reviewed the online form we filled out and the conversations we had prior to the wedding making the music exactly what we wanted. In addition to the remarkable job on music Matt was also a huge part of keeping the wedding flowing and on schedule. All transitions between events were smooth and flawless. We knew that the DJ can make or break a wedding, and Matt and Choice Entertainment totally made our day spectacular exceeding everyone’s expectations. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone!

Matt was a fantastic DJ, from the pre-ceremony classical music right through to the last dance of the night! The music flowed seamlessly all day and night. Thanks to his DJ skills, pretty much everyone at our wedding danced like crazy and didn't want it to end!
Matt came highly recommended by our wedding planner. I met with him before the wedding and discussed the kinds of music that my fiance and I like. He was so helpful in guiding us, categorising our various tastes, and coming up with musical styles/themes for each part of the wedding. He is extremely knowledgeable about music, and we felt totally happy giving him some free rein as well as making specific requests. The result was a wedding playlist that was totally "us" but better, including songs we didn't know we liked! I would wholeheartedly recommend Matt if you are getting married in San Diego!

In my search for a DJ to work my wedding, I kept coming up short finding the right fit for me. I didn't want the traditional cheesy DJ voice or someone who only played the top 40 - I wanted a DJ who listened to my music suggestions, could feel a crowds vibe, and que the music at just the right moment. Matt did all of this and more. With all weddings, nothing ever goes as planned and he was completely fluid with the entire process. Our communication was easy and stress free and he captivated the night perfectly.

STOP. LOOKING. RIGHT. HERE. Matt is the best wedding DJ of all time!! He was so helpful throughout the process. I did not realize how important that music was for me until I met with Matt. He made the planning process so much fun! We sat in his office and talked about all the different options for each step of the day and it was so helpful. Honestly, that was the most fun I had planning for my wedding. He is a true professional and didn't try to push any services on me.
Our lighting was amazing, and the music was even better. I had multiple guests come up to me during the wedding and tell me how awesome our DJ was. He made our own unique taste in music flow perfectly on our day.
THANK YOU MATT!

If you are looking for a fantastic DJ for your wedding, then there is no better choice than Matt. He provides exceptional service, is responsive to any needs you have and is super professional. He has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to weddings, but always lets you make your own decisions and provides input when request. He recently DJ'd my wedding and did a great job with the ceremony, and kept people dancing all night at the reception.

Honestly, don't look any further if you're looking for a DJ - Matt is the BEST! From our first meeting, I knew he would be a great match for our wedding. He really took time to get to know us as a couple and exactly what type of music and vibe we wanted for our big day. One day he even took the time to meet my mom and I up in Temecula on a Saturday at our venue just to see exactly how many lights we would need so we didn't have to pay for anything unnecessary. We had such a blast hanging out with him!
My husband and I moved to Chicago before our wedding in San Diego so about two weeks before the wedding he had no problem Skyping us to go over final details for the wedding. I gotta say, our wedding day was completely flawless. Everything from the music to me walking down the aisle, cocktail hour and all the transitions throughout the evening was PERFECT. My husband and I were even saying during dinner how thankful we were for Matt!
Now let's talk about the dancing. From the start, I wanted my wedding to be a big, fun dance party. And let me tell you, it was!! I myself was on the dance floor for over two hours and our friends and family had a blast. It truly was a big party and weeks later (we got married 6/25/16), we're still getting compliments from friends and family by how awesome our music was. I can't express how truly grateful we are that Matt was our DJ - he really did make our big day perfect. The best part about Matt though, is that he really did become our friend in the process.
So if you're looking for a wonderful DJ and MC for either your wedding or big event there's no question - Matt is your guy!

We truly could not have asked for a better DJ! Matt DJ'd our wedding on 5/21/16 at Bandy Canyon Ranch in Escondido, CA. He kept the party going until midnight and none of our guests wanted to leave. They even asked him to play an additional song after our designated "last song" which he happily obliged. Everyone was on the dance floor, young and old - it was awesome! In addition to being an amazing DJ he was also super responsive during the whole planning process. My husband and I planned our wedding out of state so a lot of our communication was via email and skype. Matt was so responsive and we always felt very confident about having him manage the entertainment portion of our wedding. He also took care of the sound for our ceremony, which was spot on! And he helped us with a special request for our first dance song. I seriously cannot say enough great things about him. I would absolutely recommend him as a DJ to all my friends and family! Thank you Matt for helping to make our wedding day/night so memorable for us and our guests!

My wife and I met with a quite a few DJ's while trying to find the right person to DJ our wedding. We are both music people and it was important for us to hire someone that understood our musical taste, as well as someone who didn't come across as the "cheesy wedding DJ" type. As soon as we met with Matt, we knew we had found a DJ who embodied what we had in mind and hiring him was a must!
Matt's knowledge of music is impressive. This came across in our first meeting when he dropped a few of our favorite indie bands, and we immediately hit it off! As we got closer to the wedding, we built or relationship and we were even able to seamlessly share our playlists via Spotify in order to get on the same page.
A few other things that impressed us about Matt: I wanted to surprise my wife by playing our first dance to a vinyl version of the song, so when I asked him if he could play records with his equipment because, he jumped at the idea. I also needed Matt's help to create a surprise mash up for the Mother/Son dance, which he was stoked to work on and definitely worked to get the party started! Finally, he threw an epic party without the distracting announcements or goofy games, which was also very important to us.
All in all, Matt was excellent to work with and was so excited to partner with us on executing our vision. He worked closely with out other vendors that night to ensure all executed seamlessly. The dance floor was packed all night! I would 100% recommend his services for anyone who's looking for a DJ who is a true music expert and who uses the music get people dancing, not his voice on the mic! His is a genuinely great person and we absolutely loved working with him!

We had a great experience with Matt. We hit it off right away and felt really comfortable discussing ideas. We discussed our musical taste at length and with Matt's input we ended up with an awesome playlist. The night of our wedding was perfect. The music really set the tone, kept everyone engaged, and got great reviews from our guests. We also opted for some lighting. At first we hadn't really thought about lighting, but ultimately decided to go with the up-lighting which really brought our venue to life. We were very pleased and would absolutely recommend Matt's services. -C&J

DJ Matt Phipps did a great job for our wedding this past November 2014! He was very responsive to emails and by phone and was always quick to address any questions or concerns.

Highly recommend Matt!!
When we first met with Matt, we had a good feeling. He was very flexible with meeting up and easy to communicate with us. He guided us with everything we needed to know with extreme details about his roll and our wedding. He is very knowledgable with music and understands the overall picture of the wedding and guest.
Ultimately, my wife and I had a great experience with Matt. Our wedding turned out to be such a great time, and we had everyone dancing all night. After the wedding, we had guest telling us how great the DJ was and how much they loved dancing all night.
His ceremony set up and music was just perfect! Everything went as planned.
Matt does an amazing job! He will be very respectful, he understands what people want, and will be big plus at your wedding. We highly recommend him!

My wife and I met with a few DJs before we met with Matt. But from our first meeting we knew he was the guy for us. His passion and knowledge of music, his approach to being the emcee for our event and his planning process were a perfect match for our style.
He was fun, knowledgeable and full of great ideas. His planning process was great and he had a lot of great suggestions for us to consider. His energy and enthusiasm were contagious in person and via email; he was great to work with from day one.
Of course where it counted most was on our wedding day. Matt was there early, set up both the ceremony and reception site and everything was great. He worked great with our wedding planner and with our Officiant and everything went off without a hitch. Sound was great during the outdoor ceremony as he had the knowledge and experience to ensure his setup could counter the wind from a beach wedding.
The reception itself was GREAT! Matt kept things flowing and everyone had a great time. He had a great command of the energy of the room; settling folks and setting up the 'events' and keeping everyone on the dance floor for the rest of the night. He was very in charge in a good sense of the word to keep things flowing but you wouldn't know he was there from a loud-annoying way. He has a great balance for engaging folks but not making the event about him.
Most of our guests were still at the reception and dancing up until the end. There were many disappointed faces when last dance and time to say good-bye to the newlyweds was announced as everyone was having such a great time.
In short we can't recommend Matt enough. He is awesome and you'd be very lucky to work with him for any event.
Thanks Matt for making our day wonderful!

Matt was absolutely amazing to work with. My husband and I hired him to DJ our wedding, and we knew we wanted to work with him from the first initial meeting. During our first meeting we realized how outgoing, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional he is. He had so many different ideas for our wedding.... from lighting to music to timelines. We could tell he knew his stuff and loves what he does. He was always very responsive and answered all emails and phone calls very quickly. While planning the wedding, I even hired him on the side to create a slideshow of our little girl for my husband for Father's Day. It was perfect and my husband cried like a baby.
Our wedding day was everything I wanted, and I know Matt had a lot to do with that. Our music was perfect, he was a great emcee, and the lighting was beautiful. We got married the week before Halloween so we gave our guests the options to wear costumes. Matt wore a suit to the ceremony and changed into an awesome costume for the reception. His energy got the party started and kept it going. To say we were pleased with him is an understatement. I would hire him for any and every event. He is awesome!

Matt was our DJ for our wedding on Aug. 9th. He is, by far, the best DJ I have ever experienced at a wedding. I know that sounds biased since it was my wedding, but I was not the only one to think that. Many people came up to us on the night of the wedding and told us how fantastic he was and how much they liked the music. Since then, we have had even more people contact us to tell us how much they loved the music. This would include everyone from my 20-something girl friends to my 60-something aunt to my friend who flew in from Japan. He read the crowd incredibly well and made my husband very happy with his song picks. When he noticed my husband and his friends putting on Ninja masks, he spontaneously played a Ninja song for him and his friends. He listened to our requests, played every single one, and made awesome suggestions of his own. We really could not have been happier with it all. Everything related to the sound went so smoothly and Matt's professionalism at all of our meetings and throughout all of our communications gave us the trust in him that we needed.
Matt also did a fabulous job with the lighting. It tied everything together, transformed the room and just made it look beautiful!
We highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. The DJ makes or breaks the night. Don't have yours break. Hire Matt and he'll make it the best party you and your guests have ever been to!

DJ Matt Phipps was referred to us by a family member of ours, and he ended up being the perfect choice. We were doing our wedding on a budget and as such we did not have money for a planner. Throughout the whole process Matt was extremely friendly and helpful in planning out our ceremony and reception. He kept everything on track even on the day of the event, and my wife and I were able to sit back and enjoy our day. His knowledge of music, and specifically his knowledge of wedding music, saved us! Everyone had a great time at our wedding, thanks in large part to Matt's skills in keeping the crowd energized. He was able to read the mood of the crowd and play the appropriate music. Honestly, I cannot say enough about how happy we were with Matt's services. Highly recommended!

Matt made our special day perfect. He is incredibly professional and easy to work with. Matt was able to work with us to fit our requests into a playlist that kept the dance floor full all night. He also made an effort to get to know us before the event, which really came through in his song selections throughout the course of the evening. He also provided an MC service, and effectively guided proceedings without dominating, only speaking when he had to and keeping the cheesy jokes to an absolute minimum. His equipment is all top of the line and the sound was great, with no troubles with feedback or tinny sounding speakers. Above all, Matt is a friendly and easy going guy, and not at all phased by the sillyness and stress that accompanies the big day.
I would strongly recommend Matt for any event.

I can safely say that Matt, our DJ, is the most talked about vendor among the guests at our wedding. He does a great job MC-ing without being even a little bit cheesy, he knows just when to switch up the music and when to play what, and he is so nice and so professional! Before our wedding, he was super easy to get a hold of and has a great website to assist people with their music selection (and he has a HUGE selection). Matt also referred us to our wedding coordinate (Regina @ Aquilone Events) who was a god-send. I can't say enough good things about Matt! You should definitely hire him.

Who We Are:
My husband and I are in our late-twenties, easy going, and the approach to our wedding was.. we’re throwing a party to celebrate our love with our loved ones. While we were planning our wedding, one of the top 5 things we were willing to spend a little extra $ for was a wedding DJ because we wanted the right personally to “host” our reception and as well as a DJ that knows how to keep the vibe going.
Why We Chose Matt:
Upon meeting Matt, we had an instant connection. He's professional, polite, and personable as well as we felt like the pressure was off because we suggested a few songs were must haves and he took it from there on the playlist. He suggested event timeline (since we didn’t have a wedding coordinator) to keep the flow of the reception fluid. He was also in constant communication with us via email/phone if we had questions or last minute requests.
At the wedding, Matt went above & beyond expectations. He kept our guests informed by letting them know and what’s happening next (we had an outfit change into traditional Vietnamese wedding attire so Matt had to get everyone’s attention again to introduce us), we had a buffet and instead of announcing over the speaker “Table 5, you may get in line for food” he personally greeted each table & invited them to the line, and once dinner was over the dance floor was never a dull moment. Matt's prices were fair and reasonable (homie's gotta make a living), but for the service he provides on the dance floor and leading up to the wedding … it’s a great value.
Overall Experience:
My husband and I look back on our wedding day & reception (it feels like a blur!) but we both agreed that the DJ made the biggest impact on a memorable reception -- had everyone dancing, kept us in check with our time frame, and kept the mic away from drunk uncles who wants to make impromptu speeches.
We've been to many weddings since ours and I can't stress how important it is to have the right DJ who isn't just there for a paycheck, but because he/she understands that this a big night for you, your family, your guests and they are there to celebrate so much love in the room -- so wouldn't you want your DJ to feel the love too?? Overall experience: A+!

Matt did a fantastic job and completely exceeded our expectations. He goes above and beyond by giving suggestions and guidance in the planning process. The program he uses for gathering the music is easy to use and helps organize the itinerary. We could not of been happier with the performance at the wedding. He knew exactly what to play to get everyone on the dance floor. We had the special privilege also to have him do a live performance with his wife during our cocktail hour. Their performance was fantastic and it was a great addition to making the atmosphere welcoming and fun. Also he was fun to work with, responsive and accommodating.

I am soo happy that my husband and I stumbled upon Choice Entertainment. That is where we met our DJ Matt! What a handsome fellow, as well as personable, professional and well priced! We were pleasantly surprised when we met Matt. His energy level matched ours and immediately we knew it would work.
My husband and I we love to be the center of attention, however not like in "Da clubs!!!" Although we don't mind fist pumping here and there, but we wanted our wedding to be fun for everyone on all levels. Whether our guests liked the D.J, they loved the ceremony, or just liked the food, we wanted it to be about us and our guests, not some crazy loud music. And so Matt read into us as a couple and fed off of the energy of the crowd of what they enjoyed and steered in that direction. Without going too much into a certain type of music, but knowing when to let the crowd enjoy themselves :)
The thing that set me at ease was that, Matts site made it so easy to manuver over songs we wanted, we didn't want and songs that were a must to play. Both my husband and I picked a few and then Matt got an idea of what we liked and took it from there. The pressure was definately off of us!!
Last thing, it was very nice that Matt knew how take the lead with telling our guests what was happening next in our wedding. If we lost track of time, him and the "wedding coordinator," kept it all going smoothly. I don't remember talking about that in the meeting with Matt, but it was great that he took the initiative if he meant to or not!!
You will be very happy and relieved to have Matt be a part of your wedding/D.J. He definitely had plenty of experience for our wedding, that people still rave about it tillthis day even though it was 2 years ago!!

We went into our reception not knowing how much of a difference a DJ would make and Matt made a huge difference. He was so flexible with the changes in the timeline. During our reception he was able to read the mood of our guests and found different ways to get everyone on the dance floor throughout the evening. There was another wedding reception going on at the same restaurant and without a doubt ours was much more fun. People from the other party were actually standing in doorway of our reception and wanting to come over. Matt definitely played a large role. To turn a very traditional Asian reception into a fun party atmosphere is a difficult thing to do and Matt seemed to do it with ease. If you're looking for a DJ for any occasion, you can shop around if you'd like but Matt would be your best pick, hands down. From the user-friendly interactive client area to his ability to work with you and your guests, he made it all about us and in the end that's what matters.
P.S. To the party next door: look him up for your next party. His name is Matt.

Choice Entertainment came highly recommended by several of my daughter's friends. During the first consultation with Matt we knew he was the perfect fit for my daughter's wedding.
The entire process was so simple with their user friendly website. We were able to make song choices, payments and develop a timeline all via the web.
So many wedding receptions just drag and there are huge lull's, not with Matt in charge. He kept the evening moving smoothly and the guests on the dance floor. He knew exactly when to play what song, he was the reason the reception was fun and a huge success.
Thanks Matt for making this a night to remember!
