DJ Seth Casana was absolutely incredible! He was prompt with communication, flexible, professional, and organized from start to finish. He arrived on time and came fully equipped w...
ith top-of-the-line gear. Having a DJ equipped with the disco ball package was a huge bonus for us since our venue was a blank canvas. Seth completely brought our vision to life with his lighting and sound setup! The sound quality was perfect for both our indoor and outdoor spaces, and his transitions between songs and event moments were flawless. He also proactively collaborated with our videographer to ensure they avoided audio hiccups during our ceremony.
Beyond Seth's talents as a DJ, he brought the energy to our celebration. He wasn’t just our DJ - he was part of the fun, dancing and celebrating with our guests while keeping the dance floor packed all night long. He was attentive to every detail and went above and beyond when our event timeline needed last-minute tweaks. With years of experience and a true passion for what he does, Seth turned our celebration into the wedding of our dreams. His sense of humor, friendliness, and ability to read the crowd made the night seamless and unforgettable. If you’re looking for a DJ who keeps guests on the dance floor, adapts effortlessly to your vision, and brings your event to life - Seth Casana is the one. Highly recommended!

Seth was wonderful to work with in planning our 2026 wedding. From start to finish he was well organized and offered advice and suggestions on our wedding day planning. He offered ...
suggestions on the types of music that should be played at certain intervals leading up with the formal dances and opening the dance floor to our guests. The layout of the venue and the music volume worked out well so that guests could hear the cocktail music in the background but not have to shout to have a conversation. BTW get the disco ball, our guests loved it.

I can’t say enough great things about DJ Seth Casana. He was extremely professional and wonderful to work with from our first phone call to the wedding day. We felt like we were in...
great hands every step of the way. The music, of course, was fantastic. He built amazing sets around the handful of songs and general vibe we wanted for cocktail and dinner music, followed by a spectacular dance set that had everyone on their feet. He truly nailed every moment. The energy was perfect, start to finish, and he read the room flawlessly. Importantly- Seth did an amazing job at keeping the whole day running without a hitch. It’s something you simply can’t get with a pre-made playlist, or a cousin you toss a few bucks at to play DJ for the night. Having a good DJ is one of the easiest ways you can make sure your event runs smoothly- but finding one can be a different story. Lucky for us, we found DJ Seth Casana! We received so many compliments about the music and the overall flow of the night. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ- we are so grateful for all his work in making our day so wonderful!

Seth DJ'd my wedding, and he did a PHENOMENAL job! He gave us a Google Doc to fill out, and it wasn't just "link me a playlist" or "what songs do you want" type document. This docu...
ment asked for so much vital information. He met with us several times leading up to our wedding to go over questions, concerns, and so much more. If there was ever something my wife and I didn't consider, Seth had a recommendation locked and loaded for us. He picked up on our vibe, filled in gaps to match what we were listening to, and it was so seamless and fun.
I could not give Seth a high enough recommendation, If I had to do it all over again (hopefully this was my first and last time getting married!) I would pick Seth over and over again.
As a bonus, he talked to us while we were clearing out and cleaning, and he offered some great marriage advice. And as an even bigger bonus, he signed our guest book with a cute little caricature of himself on the turn-table.
Seth, Thank you so much for making our special day so memorable and fun. We loved having you there and wouldn't want anyone else DJ'ing for us!

As soon as I said, "Please find your seat for the toasts," or, "Can I have your attention, please?" everyone responded immediately. So refreshing!

Seth was proactive, communicative, thorough, professional, flexible, and effective. He met with us multiple times befor...
e the wedding day and walked through his full "show notes" document, which was incredibly helpful for us to think through every detail.
Seth had to take on multiple moving parts: our wedding day had 2 full ceremonies, including an intermission, cocktail hour, and reception. It also included a cultural wedding style that was new to Seth, yet he was totally on board, and provided some good new ideas too.
I highly recommend having "moonlight dance" for a private moment to yourselves at the end of the wedding day.
Make sure you're ready to be detailed about your music plans. Double check your timelines and the math on your invoices.
I had zero concerns during the wedding day about the music.
Seth = smooth

We loved working with DJ Seth and our guests loved him too! More than a week after our wedding day, our friends and family are still raving about our wedding DJ and he is by far th...
e vendor that our guests mentioned the most in recounting the wedding reception. From the beginning, DJ Seth put us at ease with his organized workflow and his calm demeanor. He sent us a Google Doc early in the planning process with page after page of spaces for us to write out our musical preferences and song requests. He gave us free rein to customize the playlist as little or as much as we wanted to. On the wedding day, DJ Seth managed to set up three different audio stations across our wedding venue in just over an hour and they all worked seamlessly throughout our day. When it came time for dancing, DJ Seth played all of our favorite songs and then some, blending songs from across eras and genres. DJ Seth genuinely seemed like he was having fun doing his thing in his extremely cool custom DJ booth and his positive energy made the dance floor that much more fun. We truly loved working with DJ Seth and we wish we could throw another party just to have him DJ again!! I definitely recommend hiring DJ Seth! You won’t regret it.

I would recommend him to anyone looking for an amazing DJ! Our guests have not stopped talking about how fun our reception was.

act on how your wedding is remembered. My husband and I knew that having a lively dance floor was a priority and Seth made it happen. From the very beginning of the process Seth was professional and made choosing the perfect sound track for us easy. Whether you know exactly what songs you want to be played or you just have a loose idea of what genres you want to hear, Seth has you covered. Seth has a custom built portable sound system that made our outdoor ceremony a breeze. Seth was super relaxed when it came down to the time line of the day and was more than willing to work with us when we made in the moment changes. Our guests ranged from ages 14 - late 80s and Seth knew exactly how to read the crowd and get everyone on the dance floor. We couldn't recommend him enough!

Unlike other DJ's that I interviewed for our daughter's wedding reception Seth is GENUINE! This came across in our phone interview months before her wedding and was validated by ho...
w he carried out his duties at the reception. He never sought to be the center of attention as I've seen other DJ's do! His moderation of key moments during the reception - toasts, grand entrance, father-daughter dance, etc. - was spot on. Leading up to the reception he worked with our daughter and her partner to define the play list, giving them ideas along the way. With 1 daughter left to get married, I am sure to be a repeat customer!

Seth had a digital planning sheet for us which made logistics a breeze, and he spoke to us for an hour over the phone a month or so before the wedding, for a final call to go over every last detail. Seth’s passion for what he does was evident in every interaction we had with him.
He arrived super early the day of the wedding so that he was set up and ready. The music he played for us during cocktail hour and dinner was absolute perfection. He kept the party going on the dance floor for the reception and was just such a perfect addition to our special day.
If you need a DJ, seriously look no further than Seth Casana.
