DJ Leon absolutely killed it at our wedding!!! But seriously, we love this guy. From the very beginning of planning, he was so thoughtful and attentive to our wishes, and full of guidance and support when we were unsure of things. Everything flowed perfectly on the day of, the dance floor was popping during the party (with the help of his karaoke software), and it couldn't have gone any better. Leon also doubled as our MC - he ran a trivia game during the reception that had literally everyone engaged. I'm genuinely so impressed I could cry, we had the best day of our lives. Got a bunch of compliments from our guests as well. Would recommend over and over again to anyone and everyone!!
Leon is an absolute gem and the best wedding DJ we've ever experienced! We were so excited to work with him for our October 2025 wedding. After listening to his mixes on YouTube and chatting with him, we knew he was the perfect fit. From our first planning session to the final song, he was an absolute professional.
The playlists were fun to create, but ultimately, we trusted Leon to curate the night and he delivered wonderfully. He captured our style, ranging from K-hip hop to some fun emo night music.
His collaboration with our other vendors ensured a perfect flow all night. After the wedding, so many of our guests complimented his work. The dance floor stayed busy all night! We highly recommend Leon for any event! Truly one of a kind.

DJing isn't just about musicality and technical skill--it's also the care that goes into it. That means:
• No generic playlists. Everything is curated to honor your story.
• Getting to know you and your guests—reading the room, adapting in real time.
• High-end setups (no giant cases on dirty tablecloths). Not cutting corners, not even down to the cables.
• Real preparation goes into your event—studying your itinerary, learning pronunciations of names, curating your song selections, testing everything with contingency plans in place.
And importantly, it means: making everyone feel welcomed and seen. Loud, chill, bubbly, punk, boujee, unapologetic, queer, neurodivergent, BIPOC, immigrant—everyone.
Your 70-year-old grandma who loves cumbia and your friends holding up "Play Bad Bunny" on their foreheads. One side of the family that loves Bollywood, the other into Afrobeats. K-Pop to Disco, Persian and Arabic classics—we hold space for it all with deep knowledge and respect across genres and cultures.

Dreamed up by Leon Lee (DJ Leon de La $co). I spent years as the highest-rated DJ and manager at one of SoCal's largest DJ companies. When our values weren't compatible anymore, I left to build Ella Luv Co—a small, intentional business built on real care and no shortcuts.
I obsess over the details so you won't have to think, just party!

DJ & Creator
Hi, I'm Leon! (gov’t name: Leon Lee / DJ name: Leon de La $co) I’m the creator of Ella Luv Co, and a lifelong music lover from San Francisco.
I've worked in radio, studied music and culture extensively while in grad school for Ethnic Studies, and even taught courses on Hip-Hop for youth and at universities—all while DJing! What started as a side gig blossomed into my full-time profession.
I became the highest-reviewed DJ and manager at one of SoCal's largest DJ companies. But when it became clear that our values weren’t aligned, I left to build something better—a small, intentional business rooted in transparency, ethical practices, and genuine care.
The “Co” in Ella Luv stands for:
Collective. Compassion. Collaboration. Community. Commitment. Company — as in good company, not just a business.
