Hans Hutchison DJ & Guitarist

Hiring Hans for our wedding was the best decision we made! He played the acoustic guitar beautifully for the ceremony and created an amazing dance party at the reception. Our guests danced all night long and commented how great our DJ was! He worked with us leading up to the wedding to make the event exactly what we wanted and provided his expert advice to ensure everything was perfect. If you are looking for an amazing DJ for your wedding, hire Hans and you will not be disappointed.

Hans was professional and great to work with the entire process from first interview to our wedding. The ceremony could not have gone any better (including the addition of “Love Story” by Taylor swift to his guitar repertoire) and he got everyone partying at the reception! We would recommend him to anybody.

My wife and I had the pleasure of working with Hans as our wedding DJ, and he was simply outstanding. From the beginning, Hans impressed us with his calm and accommodating demeanor. He was incredibly supportive and attentive throughout the entire planning process, ensuring that all our preferences and requests were meticulously noted. On our wedding day, Hans executed everything flawlessly. His attention to detail and ability to read the crowd ensured that the music perfectly matched the mood of each moment. His live guitar playing during our ceremony was the perfect cherry on top. Our guests had an amazing time, and we received numerous compliments on the fantastic music and seamless flow of the event. Hans truly made our special day unforgettable, and we couldn't recommend him more highly!

Hans was a phenomenal DJ and MC. We couldn’t have asked for a better person for the job. He was very easy to work with and was very attentive to our needs and wants during the planning and execution. Nothing but great feedback from our guests they all loved him. Hans is well worth the price and we highly recommend him!

We loved having Hans for our special day. He was able to create a beautiful musical atmosphere, by playing beautiful acoustic guitar during our ceremony and creating the perfect reception and dance atmosphere thereafter. Would highly recommend Hans, your guests won’t want to leave the dance floor!

Hans was an amazing DJ and ceremony guitarist. It's been a few weeks since our wedding and we are still thinking about the amazing vibes and songs played throughout the night. We had such an amazing time and would highly recommend!

We are so thankful and blessed Hans was able to DJ our wedding! He was communicative, professional, kind, and went above and beyond to make sure things flowed smoothly for our special day! We loved working with him and could not recommend him more highly!!!

Hans was amazing to work with for my wedding! I secured him over a year in advance - he was able to give me a heads up on the timeline and what preparation I would need to do leading up to the wedding day. He provided me with a template to fill out for music which helped blend into our wedding timeline. He let me create my own playlist for the reception and adjusted as needed. I decided I wanted some acoustic music and he played guitar for my ceremony which was such a nice touch. Throughout the evening of the wedding, Hans had great energy and checked in with me. We originally planned to end earlier in the night, but extended and Hans was flexible with adjusting to our later time. Great communication via email, text and phone. Could not recommend him more!

Hans was a truly wonderful wedding guitarist. It was so special to have him play during the ceremony then switch to being our DJ for the evening. He was kind, patient, and professional, and we are so grateful he made our wedding so special!

I can't even express how much my husband and I loved Hans! Hire him ASAP if you're thinking about it! He is a wonderful guitarist, DJ, and person to have involved in your wedding. He is so fun and down-to-earth and made the entire process so easy. I took such comfort in his calm demeanor and had too many positive comments from guests on his great playlist to count. He took the time to add some flair to our ceremony music (Here Comes the Sun, a favorite of my recently passed father that he updated so it felt like he was there) and, a huge bonus, Hans even found out my husband loves Star Wars and gave us a lightsaber and some tunes to enjoy! :) Hans, thank you for everything--I was so delighted and fortunate to work with you!

Hans is the man!!! Do yourself a favor and have Hans at your event. He did our wedding in April and everything went off without a hitch. Everything that he said in his bio is true: he is a musician who is incredible on the guitar, he ran the show from start to finish, and handled any transitions and changes like a pro. We were also relieved from the beginning when our venue told us how much they loved working with Hans. Thanks you, Hans, for making our special night perfect. - Ed & Katie Hird

Hans was great to work with! He did such a good job attending to what was important to us for the wedding and playing a variety of music that appealed to our audience. I got so many compliments on what a great DJ we had at our wedding. I would absolutely recommend Hans! Everything went perfect during our night!

We booked with Hans for our recent wedding, and absolutely loved our experience! We can not recommend him enough! From our initial contact, Hans was friendly, professional, and passionate. We loved his enthusiasm during the planning process. He was clear about pricing, and quick to respond to communication. He provided us with an outline that helped us select music and organize our timeline, and spent time thoughfully reviewing it with us to make sure everything was ready. Hans identified lots of songs that we might enjoy-we felt like he used his expertise to zero in on song selections that were perfectly suited for our tastes. We also appreciated his insights about the order of events and his many helpful suggestions. On the day of the wedding, Hans was well-prepared and absolutely a huge part of what made our day so wonderful. We loved his performance on the guitar during our ceremony, and he brought such great energy to our reception. Hans is fantastic at reading the crowd and kept our guests on the dance floor all night! He was super flexible with changes, and remained mindful of how they might affect other parts of the reception. Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without Hans, and we will treasure the great memories he helped create! We highly recommend having him at your wedding!

Hans was truly amazing and went above and beyond! He not only was an amazing DJ but made sure we were taken care of throughout the wedding. No need to look anywhere else for a DJ he is your guy!!

Hans was really professional, prompt and fun! I requested him to play a specific song for my bridal entrance and he created a guitar version that was beautiful! He exceeded our expectations and would recommend him to anybody!

Hans was great - very professional throughout the planning process as well as day of. We hired him to both play acoustic guitar during the ceremony as well as DJ the reception - both were great and Hans was awesome at moving the schedule along and keeping everything organized. As well, it unexpectedly rained very hard the day of the wedding (we were supposed to have an outdoor reception). Hans adapted quickly and made sure all the last minute changes were taken care of.

I don’t think I have enough characters available here to express how awesome Hans is! I can’t say how thankful we are that we found him AND that he was available for our wedding date. He communicates so well, is incredibly easy and fun to chat with, and gave me confidence immediately in taking care of all of the many things he masters on the day of our wedding. He paid attention to every detail, asked all the questions he needed to, and communicated great with our other vendors as well. Super down to earth & kind. All of my family left saying how much they enjoyed him after getting to meet him. The songs he played on his guitar leading up to the ceremony & after, as well as the songs he played at our reception- were perfect! He reads the room so well, and would kill that no matter how big or small your event is. Seriously look no further than Hans- he’s the best & you won’t regret it!

From the beginning of working with Hans until the big day, he was very professional and thoughtful with his interactions. We like to believe we got the dream team for our wedding with our DJ, photographer, and officiant and we have heard so many compliments since the wedding regarding our day. Hands down, Hans is the right choice!

Hans DJed our wedding over Labor Day weekend and he was phenomenal. This was our post-COVID rescheduled wedding and we’ve had a baby in the interim, so our ability to spend time wedding-planning was limited. We had a few things that were important to us from a music perspective, but also a lot of things where we know what we like but cannot quite explain it beyond generalities. Hans did great with the live music and nailed all of our specific requests. He understood our vague preferences and was able to fill in the specifics nicely on his own. He’s friendly, approachable and just an all around professional.

Hans is absolutely fabulous! He is so easy to work with, knows his music, has great recommendations, and keeps the party dancing! We also took advantage of his guitar skills for the ceremony and it added the perfect touch to our day. We couldn’t have been happier with Hans!

We simply cannot say enough good things about Hans. He was professional, organized and thorough throughout the whole process. He made everything so stress-free and fun from planning until the very end of the night. We loved that he offers the acoustic guitar for the ceremony and then DJs for the reception, and is equally fantastic at both. We gave him pretty free rein on the music choices for the reception and he did not disappoint! We had an absolute blast and Hans was a huge part of that. He was so helpful with planning and is extremely knowledgable about all things wedding and helped us with so much more than just the music - he really knows exactly what he's doing. We would give him 10 stars out of 5 if that was an option. If you are looking for the total package, you can find it in Hans.

We are so grateful that we hired Hans for our wedding! He was so prepared and organized and when you are planning a big event (like a wedding), those are the vendors you want. He was also very kind and friendly every time we communicated. We liked that he wasn’t an “in your face” DJ. He did a perfect amount of MC-ing, played our requested songs and others that matched the vibe perfectly. During the planning process he had great recommendations about how the evening could flow and it all felt seamless. Our favorite part was that he played guitar for our ceremony. My husband and I are both performers so having live music involved, especially during the ceremony, made it feel so incredibly special. Being able to have the best of both worlds (so to speak) was perfect. We highly recommend Hans!

As a musician and DJ Hans is really the total package! We received SO many compliments on his performance, and on the great music that was played throughout the reception. He was wonderful to work with and we can't recommend him enough!

We hired Hans to DJ our wedding and could not be more impressed with him! He is professional, incredibly adaptable, and has great taste in music. When we were looking for a DJ we were primarily looking for someone who was experienced, comfortable directing our wedding as MC, and who had a broad taste in music. From the very beginning, Hans impressed us with his communications, organization, and his very easy-going demeanor. He gave us a thorough wedding organizer that helped us fill in some of the gaps of our wedding plan and helped us establish some of the initial songs and atmosphere of the wedding. We met in person and we were able to talk over the organizer and listen to some collections he has built to determine the feel of our reception. We had some “Must Play” Songs in mind and some pretty strong “absolutely never play songs” and he took them both in equal humor and provided suggestions and excellent music to fill in the gaps. In terms of directing and MC’ing our wedding, I really cannot speak more highly of Hans. We made some adjustments to our plan in the final two weeks leading up to the wedding and he took these in stride and even helped to make them even better than we had envisioned. He is a true team player, and helped everyone involved in the ceremony feel prepared and ready to sound our best. He worked incredibly well with the photographer and even helped direct the reception /dinner when the caterer failed us spectacularly. The entire time he was an absolute professional and we received many compliments about the Hans as our DJ/Host. I am so glad we hired Hans for our wedding, and highly recommend him to everyone! He will be 100% on your team from beginning to end, helping you plan for the perfect day and being ready to roll with the punches if something goes awry. Thank you again Hans, for everything!

We hired Hans to handle music at our wedding, and couldn’t be more pleased with the result. Hans was PERFECT, and the entire night was a smash hit. I’ll walk through the experience from start to finish. Hans came highly recommended by other vendors we were working with for our big day. First off, in meetings Hans was professional and quick to reply to our emails and phone calls. He established clear lines of communication and outlined expectations from us to that we could get him what he needed to do his best job. Hans was incredibly easy to work with, and we were able to nail down the details with ease. He helped solve some of the problems that stumped us during the planning phase. As a DJ with many years of experience, he knows the typical flow of these events and where to make personalized adjustments. Hans was flexible with us sharing our playlists and music selection. He knew where to compromise and where to be firm with what would be best for the party. This was really helpful and made both my partner and I feel like we were in good hands during planning. On the day itself, Hans was set up and ready to roll. We truly did not have to think about a thing. He had everything taken care of. Hans had also worked with our venue and was familiar with the staff. A huge plus. Hans played acoustic guitar before our ceremony began, and while we walked out to the altar. This was a wonderful thing to have, and added an intimacy to our ceremony. It’s so great that Hans also offers this along with his DJ services. Hans provided music for the cocktail hour which was outside. We provided him a playlist of songs that we liked, and he handled the rest— weaving together a tapestry of music that provided the backdrop for our guests to mingle. Hans is skilled at track selection and keeping the vibe going. During the reception and dinner, Hans seamlessly handed mics out for speeches and kept the flow of the night going without a hitch. When it came time for dancing, Hans’s skills as a DJ again shined. I don’t think there was even 1 minute where there weren’t people grooving on the dance floor, and many guests came up to us throughout the night to compliment the music and skills of the DJ. The vibe was just right, and kept going until we had to close down for the night. In summary — Hans was the perfect DJ for our wedding. I can’t imagine working with anyone better. It’s a night we will remember forever, and I’m so grateful to have worked with such a talented and wonderful person! If you choose Hans to handle your event, know that you are in very capable hands!

Hans was great both as a vendor and as a DJ. He was happy to let me be as involved or not as I wanted with music selection and make the night bespoke to our interests. I wanted to be very involved with the music choices so we made a few playlists for the night. Hans took those and filled in the gaps to make a great night of dancing. He was a killer mixing song to song and a had sense for flow through the night itself. He listened to my requests and made suggestions where needed to guide us. Best compliment I can say is the dance floor was filled all night! Thanks Hans

Hans is a true professional and the total package. He helped make our wedding extra special from performing beautiful music during the ceremony to DJing the reception. It was the perfect mix for us. He was a great communicator, well organized, and understood the whole process which really helped take the stress off us. He was really friendly to all our guests and had a great relationship with our other vendors which was a nice added benefit. Thank you Hans for helping make our wedding day so special!

Hans went above and beyond for our wedding! He played guitar live at our ceremony, he made sure everyone transitioned seamlessly from ceremony to cocktails to reception. And, he was an EXCELLENT communicator throughout the entire night. My sister sang our first dance song and he went above and beyond to coordinate with her and make the event a success. If you are thinking about hiring him for your wedding you absolutely will not regret it! We 10/10 recommend him!

We hired Hans to be the DJ for our wedding and he was absolutely amazing! He was so professional and played amazing music that kept our guests dancing all night. He was in touch through the entire process leading up to the wedding and the day went perfectly as a result. I highly recommend having him play the processional and recessional on acoustic guitar- he is so talented and it’s breathtaking. Thank you, Hans, for everything!!

Hans was exceptional, played amazing music and I loved that he played the guitar for our ceremony music. He made the process so easy and was the best choice for our wedding. highly recommend if your looking for a DJ for any occasion. I would definitely have him DJ for us if I needed one in the future.

Hans is absolutely awesome!! He is incredibly talented and such a genuine person. Hans made himself available for phone calls through out the whole process and made an effort to determine what we wanted on our wedding day. He did such a great job reading the crowd and keeping the dance floor busy all night! Guests loved the acoustic guitar during the ceremony as did my husband and I. It makes the ceremony that much more special. I would highly recommend Hans if you’re looking for a talented DJ who has lots of experience!

Hans was wonderful! He played guitar at our ceremony and then DJ'd the reception. He was so flexible when it came to the rainy weather, setting up sound for our outside ceremony, dealing with covid, etc. He did a great job getting the party going at the reception and we are so happy that we chose him as our DJ :)

Hans was great. He was recommended by both our venue coordinator and our florist/ planner and did not disappoint. You can tell he has great experience in the industry as he has wedding down. Our favorite part was that he plays guitar so we were able to have live ceremony music and our DJ for the reception all in one. Our guests had a great time as he played a great diverse playlist. If you are getting married in the Tucson area, I highly recommend choosing Hans.

Hans was so easy and pleasant to work with. We chose Hans because he plays guitar during the ceremony, which is a skill that sets him apart from a sea of DJ's. We didn't budget for live music but to have it included with his services was so special and elevated the entire experience. All of his equipment worked flawlessly (I can't think of anything more stressful than technical difficulties). During the reception he got the party going and kept it going. He is very knowledgeable about how to put together a great playlist from a few suggestions. Book him before it's too late!

When we were stuck looking for a DJ last minute we couldn't have asked for anyone better! He was willing to work around our hectic schedules to plan out everything and was an absolute joy to work with. He ensured everything went perfectly the day of. And, perhaps most importantly, he took our suggestions and requests and created an awesome playlist that got people dancing. Thank you again for making our day even more special.

Hans was our DJ and guitarist at our recent wedding in Tucson. He was amazing! Our guests loved his music choices and he is so talented on the acoustic guitar. More importantly he is so easy to work with. My now husband wanted to shag through music selections prior to our ceremony and Hans was more than willing to hop on a phone call with us to walk through the entire night. Everything was amazing and we are truly blessed he was able to be our DJ. CALL HIM IMMEDIATELY- run (don’t walk) to your phone if you are booking your wedding vendors!

Hans Hutchison was a fantastic addition to our wedding! I wanted to have live music during the ceremony and also wanted a DJ. Hans delivered on both and we couldn't be happier with his performance! The ceremony music was beautiful and he kept everyone dancing during the reception. I would definitely hire Hans' again and highly recommend him!

Hans was a great DJ and guitar player! Our guests commented on how nice the guitar playing was as they were arriving and during the ceremony. He was super responsive via email when we had questions. We would highly recommend him!!

Hans was great to work with. Made everything stress free when planning, and really took great care of us during the event. The wedding itself went beautifully and everyone had a blast. Highly recommend him and if you do use him for your wedding definitely ask for his advice on the flow of the ceremony and reception. Book him! You won't regret it!

Hans was the best DJ we possibly could have asked for! Not only was he a joy to work with but he also was incredibly responsive and professional. He always responded to us and our family quickly and was more than helpful when we gave him a four-hour-long list of music. We can’t say enough good things about him, everyone in the family loved him and loved his choices in music and what he played and had a great time dancing. Hans was incredibly nice and well kept and it was a personal joy to get to talk to him as much as we did. Thank you so much again for everything you did and for accommodating us when you could. We will honestly never forget you and how special you made our day!

Stop looking for a DJ or musician for your wedding! Hans is the one! Seriously, Hans is the best of the best. He made our intimate 40 person wedding everything we dreamed of with sweet acoustic guitar and a perfect playlist. As our DJ, he was professional, fun, and 0% obnoxious on the mic. If you're having a bigger gathering, he won't disappoint - our friends hired him last month for their bigger wedding and he made their day just as special as ours. Hans makes you feel like you've known him forever in the best way! Hire him and rest assured, your day will be lovely.

I want to start by saying we were a pretty easy going wedding couple except for one thing—the music! My husband had a very clear vision of how he wanted the soundtrack for the night to go and had some different preferences for cocktail hour vs. dinner vs. dancing. We talked to a few DJs who did not really seem on board for collaborating and pretty much said “you can give me a no-play list and I’ll do the rest” (which didn’t really work for what we wanted). Then we talked to Hans. He was a Godsend! From the very first conversation, he totally got what we were looking for and seemed truly excited to work with us. He got our vision and really knows his stuff! He was able to suggest other music that meshed perfectly and checked in multiple times before the big day to make sure everything was coming together perfectly. He also provided all the equipment and went to our venue beforehand to make sure he was prepared with everything he would need as there were multiple locations needing sound throughout the event. From the very first second of the ceremony, Hans could not have been more perfect! The music was incredible, he kept the flow going, and he was beyond professional. He went above and beyond and I know our day would not have been half as fun without his touch. He is truly a blast to work with and I cannot recommend highly enough! Thank you Hans for helping make our day perfect! <3 :)

Hans was so much more than a DJ! He was highly involved in helping us plan the workflow of the day. He gave us tips and insights that come with his years of experience. I can honestly say if it were not for Hans, the day would have had a lot more chaos. He took time to get to know us, our music preferences, and was very involved throughout the planning process. He showed up very early and made sure everything went smooth. He was punctual, professional, enthusiastic, and a skilled musician. He is worth twice the price quoted. I can not recommend him enough.

Hans was an excellent DJ and was really great to work with! He perfectly edited a song for the mother-son dance and created a great playlist for both the cocktail hour and reception. During the reception, he did an excellent job at reading the crowd and adjusting the music accordingly, which helped ensure the dance floor was crowded all night long! He even went above-and-beyond his DJ responsibilities to ensure that everything ran smoothly. When we had an issue with our transportation vendor, he offered to drive his personal car to pick-up the wedding guests. We would HIGHLY recommend Hans!

Hans played guitar for our ceremony and was also the DJ for our reception. He was amazing! We met with him several times and he helped us create the perfect playlists for both events. He's very easy-going, great to work with and a very talented musician (the guitar music for our ceremony was beautiful). Highly recommend!

Great music! Played guitar during the ceremony, it was magical!

Stop looking, You need Hans at your wedding! He is the absolute best. From playing beautiful live guitar at our ceremony to making each special song moment so perfectly, we couldn't have dreamed of a better DJ for our wedding. Hans has a great personality that anyone can get along with and makes you feel like you've been friends forever. Thank you so much for everything you did for us and making it that much more special!

Hans was absolutely wonderful to work with! He played a great variety of songs, and was able to edit/ revise a few songs for us flawlessly. All of our must have songs were played, and our guests raved about his live guitar skills. He was even able to play Hava Nagila at the drop of a hat for an unplanned chair ceremony which was the highlight of the night! You will not be disappointed with Hans, book him NOW before your date is booked!

Hans was an absolute pleasure to work with and listen to. He worked with us before the wedding to get the right songs playing at the right times. Although I was too excited to hear the music while I was walking down the aisle Hans guitar playing sounded great in the video and I'm super happy he was able to add that touch. Hans music and personality was great throughout the night and we were extremely happy with all his sounds during our wedding.

My husband and I were hesitant to hire a DJ / musician for our small wedding of 18, but we are SO GLAD we hired Hans! He was an absolute delight to work with and went over every detail with us to make sure everything was just how we wanted it. His guitar was the perfect addition to our small ceremony. Part of our hesitation for hiring a DJ was the pushy DJs we have seen at other weddings. Hans was great with our guests, took their song requests and was just a joy to work with!! We would recommend him to anyone who loves music and would hire him again in heartbeat!!

Hans was the perfect choice to have as the DJ for our wedding. Leading up to the big day, he was very communicative and helped us plan what songs we would want to have played throughout the ceremony, reception, and special events like cake cutting etc. He played his own guitar for the ceremony and has a great list of songs he can play. The DJ sets the tone for the entire night, and Hans was perfect for our small, intimate wedding. We were concerned people would not want to dance, but he got the party started. He coordinated very well with our wedding planner to keep the night moving along smoothly. At the end of the night, my husband told him he would give him 6/5 stars on the review if he could.

Hans is your guy!! We hired Hans when we had to pivot our wedding plans to accommodate a smaller, more intimate wedding to account for the pandemic. Since we altered the guest list to include immediate family only, we were not anticipating any dancing after dinner but Hans totally helped bring the night to life! He was accomodating to all guests (including our 5 + 7 year old nephews) with the music requests and knew how to read the room to play the exact music needed to have some fun. He also helped with all acoustics at our ceremony (our videographer was very thankful!) Thank you so much Hans! We hope to work with you again!

Hans was a true pleasure to work with! My new husband and I are fairly laid-back and not big party people, so Hans' chill vibe was exactly what we were looking for. We asked him to learn a special song to play during our ceremony which sounded beautiful, and all of our guests loved his guitar playing during the cocktail hour. We gave him a few playlists of music to play during dinner and dancing, and he did such a great job of choosing similar songs in addition to those we picked - there wasn't a single song he played that we didn't like! Hans did a great job of reading the room and helping guide the night along with the music he chose without being distracting, and was just overall an excellent choice!

Hans comes highly recommended from us! Hans took so much time before our wedding to get to know what music we loved. We live across the country from Tucson, so Hans spent his own time on the phone with us perfecting our day of music- from the ceremony, cocktail hour, first dance, to the dance floor, Hans didn’t let any detail fall to the wayside. He played his own guitar at our ceremony, which was so special and a huge bonus. He was a true professional, fun, and we’d have him do our wedding again in a minute. If you’re looking for a DJ who really wants to get the “vibe” you’re looking for at your wedding and will take time to make sure that happens, definitely go with Hans!
