With two weeks notice, Hey Mister DJ was able to accommodate us fully for my daughter's wedding. Their enthusiasm for their work is exemplary and their professionalism on the job was outstanding. Pricing was fair and reasonable as well. I highly recommend them!
We hired Lee to DJ our wedding at the Natural History Museum back in July. He was fantastic! Not only had great taste in music but gave wonderful feedback on layouts, made sure guests were entertained & that the event flowed smoothly. We booked lighting, Photo Booth & DJ services - such a great package deal and Lee made sure everything was set up and placed perfectly. 10/10 would recommend for any event. Thank you Lee, we had such a blast!!!
Hey Mister DJ & DJ John were extraordinary! We are so appreciative not just for the actual performance but the effort to work with us, our other vendors, and the venue leading up. We truly thank them for making our wedding a big success!
I was originally just looking for a DJ that I could trust to play good music, but Lee showed me that the right DJ does sooo much more. Before the wedding, he used his knowledge and expertise to help guide us towards the right flow and schedule for the evening, and I instantly knew we were in great hands. He conducted the entire event flawlessly, guiding us from the ceremony, to the reception, through toasts, and onto the dance floor. Very grateful we choose Hey Mister DJ so that we didn't have to worry about being hosts. we could just let go and enjoy the night.
DJ Jimmy was phenomenal and we had the best wedding reception ever! Everyone is talking about my DJ and what a hit he was. Jimmy sang for our guests and brought Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin to life. He read the crowd perfectly and played all the best songs to keep us dancing. He even played our traditional Greek songs. The blisters on my feet and my guests reaching out the next day to talk about our DJ are proof of a fabulous dance party! Thank you DJ Jimmy!!!
Lee is fantastic! We hired Lee back in 2019 to DJ our wedding. He stuck with us through the pandemic craziness for the last 2.5 years and finally made our wedding dreams come true on June 5, 2021. The custom wedding website he provides is super helpful! My husband and I had fun filling out the wedding questionnaire/playlist and choosing all our music with Lee. The music Lee played from cocktail hour to dinner to the dance party was perfect! He even helped us out with a Star Wars themed La Hora Loca. He also provided amazing lighting for our reception. It was the party of our dreams!
Hiring the DJ was not my task, but as mother of the bride, I was thrilled with Lee and his crew from Hey Mister DJ. During the planning process, he asked the bride and groom for their play list and their “do not play” list, and seamlessly wove their selections into the evening music, reading the crowd like only an experienced DJ can, keeping the dance floor occupied all night. He handled introductions and announcements with ease, no “cheese,” and kept his talking to a minimum. Quail Ranch in Simi Valley is an expansive outdoor venue, and he and his crew set up the sound system for each area - ceremony, cocktail hour, and then reception - perfectly and unobtrusively, including accommodating a live keyboardist for the ceremony. The entire venue, the whole day, had continuous, lovely music as guests moved about. I promise you will be happy and have no worries if you hire Hey Mister DJ!
Hey Mister DJ was recommended to me by a family friend. Was NOT disappointed. Professional. Fun. Perfect music atmosphere for my wedding. 10/10 recommend for any event!
DJ Lee was great! From a wedding planner's persecutive, he did an amazing job as MC and playing all the music the couple requested! He helped keep up on time and on track! :) Would definitely recommend this DJ!
Honestly, DJ Lee was so amazing. Music was one of the things I was most anxious about when planning our wedding as my family is big on dancing and good vibes. While we had to tweak a lot of things in our wedding due to COVID-19 in order to follow proper protocols, Lee was so awesome to work with. He was patient, flexible, and incredibly helpful when it came to helping everything flow so effortlessly and naturally. The night could not have been more perfect and I know Lee had a big hand in making that happen. We talked music a lot, even up until the night before my wedding and he was super helpful. Go with DJ Lee and you won't regret it!!!
Hey Mister DJ is always a pleasure to work with! Lee is a complete professional who takes pride in his work and goes above and beyond to ensure that our couples have an unforgettable wedding. We recommend him for your next event!
Anyone who knows me knows that music is one of the most important things in my life. That’s probably why as soon as my husband proposed, one of the very first things I did was start researching DJ’s. And boy, did I RESEARCH! I stumbled joint Hey Mr. DJ and was amused that that was the title of one of the songs by my favorite band. That didn’t matter though because Lee seriously blew the competition out of the water. It wasn’t just his obvious talent or skill, but when he agreed to meet with me and my husband, we felt so at ease with him, as if we were meeting an old friend for coffee. I seriously loved how he didn’t try to push anything on us. He even gave us a book on finding the right DJ to help us make our decision, even if that decision meant hiring someone else (spoiler alert: it didn’t). Putting together the playlist was a breeze. The actual day of our wedding, so many things went wrong. I’m usually the picture of calm and collected, but I was a bundle of stress and nerves. The second the music started though? It was like all of that stress instantly melted away. Lee did a PHENOMENAL job as our DJ and MC. I spent a majority of the night on the dance floor because he really listened to what we/the crowd wanted. Oh and as an added bonus, he did our lighting, too! We didn’t even talk much about it because it was a last-minute addition, but he nailed what we were looking for. Hiring Lee was definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!
Lee is one of the best DJ's I've ever hired for events I've thrown. My husband and I met with him before our wedding. We didn't make an immediate decision to hire him, but he was one of the front-runners. He was very responsive and transparent in all correspondence, which was one of the reasons we ended up hiring him. He was on time for our wedding and worked very well with other vendors. His timing and coordination during the wedding ceremony and reception was so smooth and left us nothing to worry about. He had a great music selection that get everyone on the dance floor. We would definitely hire Lee again!
We had a great experience working with Hey Mister DJ - Lee and DJ Tyler were both true professionals. I'd highly recommend!
Hey Mister DJ was highly recommended to us and now we know why! Everyone we were in contact with were very professional and helpful. Lee used his expertise to keep the whole night going and make sure everyone enjoyed themselves. The dance floor was never empty! Music was a very important part of our wedding and thanks to Lee and Hey Mister DJ it was a night we’ll never forget.
Hey Mister DJ was absolutely great - so communicative and fun in the planning process and DJ Tyler really brought the party at our wedding. Cannot recommend them enough for their professionalism and attention to detail. We also did a photo booth and I'm so glad we did as guests loved it and we have some great photos to add to all our pictures from the day.
Working with Lee and his staff were top notch! They understood our needs, were very accomodating and helpful in all our design needs from lighting, to the photo booth but especially the MC and DJ of our reception. Lee was quick to respond and answered all my questions, made me feel very comfortable and took the stress of knowing he had our back and would make our reception flow as needed. I would highly recommend Hey Mister DJ for your special event!
Hey Mister DJ was a great pleasure to work with. Lee and his staff were amazing, professional, had such positive attitudes, and made our day very special. They went above and beyond with music and lighting; me and my wife could not be happier! I’d definitely recommend them to any couple looking for a DJ! Thanks again
We loved working with DJ Russell. Our reception had such a great flow to it and Russell definitely contributed to that with his energy, his ability to read the room, and his great playlists. We would definitely use Russell again in the future!
the owner Lee Dyson is beyond wonderful. he is so helpful and gets back to you ASAP. He actually personally went out of his way to help me and my husband when our first wedding venue closed suddenly and was there to lend a helping hand. In the end we had a perfect wedding. We went with DJ Jimmy who kept the dance floor going all night and played what the crowd wanted. go with this company for sure!
I am so grateful that we worked with Hey Mister DJ. I interviewed ~ 3 different DJ services and instantly clicked with Lee! He was willing to work with us on our budget as well as our specific venue needs (i.e. sound equipment outside for the ceremony, uplighting, etc.).
On the day of the wedding, we were so blown away by our DJ for the night - Tyler! He was INCREDIBLE. All of our guests came up to us to compliment him and share that he was so engaged, read the room, was professional and seemed to really care about doing a wonderful job and making the event the best night of our lives.
Thank you thank you Hey Mister DJ & Tyler! I highly recommend their services :)
We requested Hey Mister DJ to play our wedding at the Hilton DoubleTree in downtown LA. Their music selection was great and they were flexible and quick to make suggestions and changes through the night. Most of our guests are fairly reserved but they were great at reading the room and able to get people on the dance floor all night long. Not to mention their lighting setup made the room look great and really set the right mood for the evening. We had a great time and would definitely recommend them.
Lee was fantastic! He used many songs off the playlists I created and also imported others while mixing live the whole time and did some fun sampling/scratching! He really brought the engagement party to life and was a stand up MC
DJ Jimmy was our assigned DJ but let's start with DJ Lee!!
Lee was quick to contact us; quick to get on the phone to get to know us; and quick to put together a welcome video for us so we can put a face to a name.
We discussed the DJ options and Lee was confident in his team and immediately knew that DJ Jimmy would serve us best due to his singing ability - and how amazing was he! We asked DJ Jimmy to sing during dinner for a bit and people couldn't believe it was him (think Michael Bubblé / Frank Sinatra).
Lastly, he was flexible when we had other entertainers/drummers and working with them to setup the music and timing all perfectly.
Highly recommend and amazing people to work with!
I loved working with Lee and would give him 10 stars if I could. We booked Hey Mister DJ for our small wedding (40 guests) and reception. He was really great about communication. Listening to our ideas and offering suggestions when we were stuck. Great response time to emails and calls. On the big day he efortlessly took us from ceremony, to cocktail hour, to our late night dance party. As I said, we were a small group and Lee really helped us keep the night running smooth as far as the timeline and keeping events on track. He was a really professional but also an all-around good guy. Very positive experience.
We had the pleasure of having Jon as our DJ for our special day and he was nothing short of amazing! From our first meeting on he went out of his way to meet our every need and tailored everything to our exact specifications. Jon created the ultimate playlist and environment for us to dance the night away with our closest friends and family.
We worked with Lee at Hey Mister DJ at our wedding in August at Malibu West Beach Club and we have nothing but good things to say! He was communicative from the start, meet with us in person, and overall had a great process. On the day he was a great MC striking the right balance to inform people of what’s going on and not talking just to talk! He created a great atmosphere and played the perfect music from the ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner to the eventual dancing! It’s easy to forget that it’s not just the ‘dancing’ part of the night that the DJs are there for-it’s all of it! And Lee worked with us to create an amazing vibe for each part of the night! We would definitely recommend him!
We had such a blast working with Lee! He listened to what our needs were and created the exact vibe we wanted for our wedding. He is an experienced professional who is knowledgeable in his field and can sense a crowd and adapt to whatever the event calls for. Most importantly, he will make you feel at ease on your most important day! Since we had a tight budget, he was able to work with us and create a package that we could afford. We are so glad we went with Hey Mister DJ and highly recommend Lee Dyson!
Lee is the man! He thinks of everything so that at the wedding you are fully prepared. Everything from pronunciations & emphasis of people's names to having a very clear timeline (that is easy to set up with him) makes for a stress free wedding and a night of fun! During the wedding, Lee would always check in with us and make sure that we are ready to move into the speeches or move into the dances or move into the cake cutting, etc. This allowed us to be in control instead of having a rogue DJ that had their own schedule. This was super professional and courteous.
He played all the specialty songs that we wanted, and he asked us for a general ideas list of the other type of music that we wanted. Be sure to be very clear about what is a must play vs. the general ideas list. We made sure that the last 3 songs were must play, and he was sure to play them.
Throughout the event, Lee went around and made sure that the speakers were the right level and that everything was working and not too quiet or too loud.
During the ceremony, he mic'd the quartet and mic'd the officiant. Providing a mic for the quartet is a MUST! This was his idea, and it was so much better having them amplified. Both our venue loved him and the wedding planner loved him as well.
He is a genius at reading the crowd and choosing the PERFECT next song. He kept everyone dancing and singing the entire night.
Lee was very knowledgeable, thorough and easy to contact in the months leading up to our wedding. We chose DJ John "Hydo" to DJ our reception, who we could tell had plenty of experience and brought some of his own small touches to create a very memorable reception for us and all of our guests. He was professional and very accommodating to customize our reception to make it exactly the way we wanted it and create the atmosphere we were aiming for, and kept the party going all night. All of the extras such as photo booth, dance floor lighting, and uplighting along the perimeter of our reception venue was great and had all of our guests in awe. We were very satisfied with Hey Mister DJ.
I knew I wanted to work with Lee right from the start, and he really blew us away with his video proposal. He was familiar with our venue and that helped seal the deal. We wanted someone with experience who understood what we were looking for with an eclectic crowd of kids that grew up in the nineties and family who loves Latin music. Lee was able to keep the crowd dancing all night (including myself, who had a broken ankle). He was never cheesy and was a great MC. To top things off he created an extremely sweet video that was completely unexpected and one of my favorite things captured during that day. Best wedding DJ of all time!!
DJ Mark was great at our backyard b-day party. He read the room really well and kept the crowd dancing the whole night. Best fun we've had at a party in a long time. Like the other reviewers said, we gave him a short list of songs and he went from there. Really read the room well, a lot of his choices worked better than ours.
I discovered Hey Mister DJ at my wedding venue's tasting night, and I am so glad they were there! Lee the owner was incredibly helpful, and perfectly understood my music genre concerns....I had a great feeling that they would be able to totally nail the vibe my husband and I were hoping for. Our DJ for the wedding wound up being Mark....he was very thorough in his emails before the event, and executed our music wish lists perfectly. I remember smiling during dinner when I heard certain songs come through, and having a blast along with the rest of our guests when it came time for dancing. I would highly recommend both the company, and specifically Mark, to anyone needing a DJ for their special day. -- Anna P.
This review is long overdue, but I hope I can help anyone and everyone planning a wedding in 2018 and beyond!
Lee DJ-ed for my wedding at Descanso Gardens, in the "hard to DJ-at" Boddy House. From personal experience, my husband and I were nothing but impressed by his professionalism. He is honestly a professional businessman.
If you want Lee to DJ your wedding, call, text, email....book him NOW. Yes, he is AMAZING and even made my husband and I a playlist after the wedding because he knows how much I love music!! He books up fast, and he's a great businessman. You can check out his Kindle book on Amazon for resources and tips, just to get an idea of how awesome he is.
Hey Mister DJ is his company. He pulled up in his cool black minivan, set up all his equipment, and DJ-ed the hell out of my wedding. He'll do the same for you!
Thank you again for everything Lee! I hope to need him again in the future!! :D
Lee from Hey Mister DJ did an amazing job for us! He was very helpful leading up to the wedding in helping us select music and plan the flow. On the day of the wedding, everything went smoothly and the music was great!
Hi Lee,
Thank you very much for the congratulatory wishes and for making our night extra special with great music and the perfect vibe with the uplighting. We can't thank you enough for how awesome the music was and for the incredible lighting in the room. As we said prior to leaving, we will definitely recommend you for any weddings or events that someone is looking for a great DJ for.
Thank you again!
Ryan and Leann
Lee was above and beyond anything I could have hoped for when looking for a wedding DJ. On a personal level, he was a joy to work with during the whole process. From the first sit down where he helped us begin putting together a playlist to the actual wedding day where he had a solution for pretty much any unplanned obstacle that presented itself, I felt at ease knowing Lee had it handled. On a professional level, His knowledge of Sound Equipment and potential issues caused by Venue Limitations is extensive. He was asking questions about things I never would have considered!
I can't stress enough the level of ease I felt knowing Lee had things handled. If we wanted a song that wasn't in Lee's library, he added it. If we were having trouble figuring out songs to cut cake to, he had a solution. Whenever possible he communicated directly with our Wedding Planners which allowed us to focus energy on other aspects of the wedding.
The positive energy and professionalism Lee brought to the wedding planning experience was top notch. I would 100% recommend him for any event.
Thank you Lee!
I believe the key to any good party is bumping music. Our DJ, DJ lee, is amazing at this. We gave him a list of music we liked, just a few songs, and man he made our wedding the wedding to beat for both of our families. For dinner he played a very nice light music that was not too loud and then seamlessly transitioned into dance music for everyone to get up and dance to. The music was exactly what we had asked for and he even played songs that we forgot and then remembered that we loved when he played them. The music was so good we had to tell people to leave because the end of our event was coming up soon. Everyone still wanted to dance. If anyone ever asked me for someone to play music at their event he will be the first person I recommend. He’s easy to talk to and is a very easy-going guy making Setting up meetings with him very easy and enjoyable. So officially to all of you who are looking for someone to DJ your wedding pic DJ Lee!
My husband and I used Hey Mister DJ for our December wedding at Carondelet House. Lee is a really nice guy and I think that he did a great job. He played everything we asked and was easy to communicate with. He also made some great recommendations about lighting.
When we added an hour of bar time to our timeline he didn't charge any extra. Probably the only vendor that ever said that to me all year!
The only negative was that we didn't want to do a first dance bc we didn't want to have a weddingy type wedding. We had explained the no first dance thing from the start. More than once. We sort of got talked into it after dinner and then awkwardly stood around waiting to do it while people stared at us and then danced to a song we don't remember. Probably mostly our fault for just not saying NO but we felt a really pressured. I guess the venue wanted to clear the dining room and move people into the other room or something. We really didn't care where people went and had made arrangements with the venue to let people stay in the dining room. We had tried to set up a lounge type atmosphere with nooks and different patios anyway. I do feel like we had strongly communicated that the reception would be casual and that we didn't want to do a first dance so it was a little bit awkward that it came up the night of. Not a huge deal.
Lee from Hey Mr. DJ was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. He came highly recommended to us by a friend who is in the entertainment industry and boy did he crush it.
We had multiple meetings / interactions before the wedding which were very helpful in planning everything out. He went above and beyond and even spliced together two songs for a custom first dance. Their website is incredibly easy to use and allows you to create a custom music list.
Still, most impressive was his skills on the big day. He listened to our preferences and took this further to create an incredible set of music that kept everyone on the dance floor from start to finish. Couldn't have been a more fun wedding! THANK YOU LEE & HEYMRDJ!!!!
I don't generally write reviews, but DJ Chris was so great on our wedding day, I feel like I have to. There was a white-knuckled moment when we had our first DJ drop out on us late in the game but DJ Chris swung in and saved the day. From the first meeting, we could tell we were in the hands of a true professional, not to mention someone who really enjoys his work. On the day of the wedding, his cues and playlists were absolutely seamless, and he was perfect on the microphone – that is, he kept the party moving and lively without being cheesy at all. I saw friends out there dancing who NEVER dance. That tells you something. I recommend DJ Chris to anyone with no hesitation at all.
Lee was great to work with. He worked with us to create a playlist that fit our crowd. He created a good vibe at the wedding so our guests wanted to dance the whole time. He helped us with timing questions and definitely has a lot of knowledge about weddings. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a DJ.
Our families have diverse musical taste. Hip Hop, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Country, you name it. We were looking for an affordable DJ for our wedding reception that was not cheesy, and could accommodate our diverse taste. Mark Reitman of Hey Mister DJ met all of our needs. During the planning process, we provided Mark with a list of about 200 songs to give him a feel for what kinda music we were looking to play including specific songs such as first dance, cake cutting, grand re-entrance, etc.. We gave him one requirement: keep everyone dancing and having a good time. Mark by far nailed it. A solid 75% of our guests were on the dance floor moving all night for almost 5 hrs straight (breaks for dinner, cake cutting, etc). Alcohol may have been a factor for our guests ;)
DJ Lee was awesome! We wanted a fun, happy atmosphere at our wedding with our guests dancing the whole night. He did not disappoint! Our guests were on the dance floor during the whole ceremony and many remarked how great our playlist was -- that was all Lee! He was also super nice and professional. A super great find! Our wedding would have been less fun without him!
DJ Lee with "Hey Mister DJ" was the perfect match for our wedding needs. My husband and I thought we would be able to put together our own play list and manage the music while trying to enjoy our wedding. At the last minute, we decided to hire Lee and we are so grateful that we did. He offered advice for lighting, music, and flow which helped make the evening a huge success. Thank you Lee!
We had DJ Lee at our wedding earlier this year and he was absolutely fantastic. He read the crowd about as well as any DJ and was super creative when I made an "on the spot" request for a mash up. I would highly, highly recommend him.
Playing the right songs at the right time was our main concern for our wedding. Lee worked with us and was very helpful by providing tones of playlists and recommendations in the process of creating a perfect and joyful wedding party. Lee was able to satisfy every special request and generated happy vibe the entire time. We received many compliments by our guests who enjoyed the music, the sound, dancing and the overall flow.
It was our pleasure to have Lee making the most important day of our life so perfect!
Look no further, Hey Mr. DJ is a real pro!!!
Lee is a pro and a breeze to work with. After we first met him, we immediately felt confident in his expertise and ability to work a crowd. I was very particular with not wanting a stereotypical "cheesy wedding DJ" and Lee is totally cool, no cheese at all. Lee did a great job of pulling songs from our playlist while adding in some of his own (great) choices when he felt like it was needed. So many of our guests commented on how much they loved the music at our wedding! Also, the lighting package we ended up renting through Lee worked out great. It really brought an otherwise boring room to life. There were many things I was stressed about leading up to the big day, but the DJ was not one of them - I had full confidence in Lee and he really did a wonderful job.
Lee at Hey Mr. DJ was an answer to my prayers! Of all the details surrounding the wedding, we were most concerned about sound quality, particularly since we were getting married in an English Garden, which is a complicated space. From our first conversation, Lee stood apart from the rest with his keen understanding of all the technical aspects of sound and lighting along with his great instincts for the natural flow of a timeline. He also stood apart, because I could tell he actually cares about even small details. His solid advice in our first meeting helped us avert a number of problems in advance. Lee ran sound for live and recorded music during the ceremony, then seamlessly guided the reception with professionalism, warmth and positive energy. He ultimately made our dream wedding come true not unlike the way super glue holds together broken pieces of a beloved treasure--effectively and invisibly. With Lee as my DJ, the best part was not having to worry about the most important part. Thank you so much, Lee!
DJ Lee of Hey Mister DJ was absolutely incredible. As many know the wedding planning process can be quite stressful. Throughout the entire planning period Lee was always a pleasure to work with from our first conversation up until the wedding itself. He truly listened to all of our requests and DJ'd our wedding better than we could have imagined. He is also very reasonably priced compared to his competition. I would recommend Lee to everyone!
In helping my daughter plan her wedding, my two big concerns were the food and the music! Luckily for us, we chose Lee Dyson (Hey Mister DJ) for the music and I could not have been happier!! He listened to my daughter and her husband and and as a result, the music throughout the night reflected not only their personality but that of all their friends and family! I would recommend Lee to anyone without any reservation whatsoever!! Truly professional! Thank you, Lee, for a truly special night!!
Lee Dyson of Hey Mister DJ is the BEST! He immediately understood us and our style and we could not have been happier with how everything turned out! He was able to read the crowd the whole night and got everyone up and dancing within minutes. Everyone raved later how much fun they had! Lee asks for lists of Must Play, Try to Play, and Do Not Play, however he doesn't need too much instruction or detail to "get" what it is you like or don't. This is huge for a bride who may already be overwhelmed by the number of decisions and details that have to be made, at least that was my case. So with so many good reviews, I really felt comfortable leaving most of it up to him and it was all perfect. Thank you, Lee!!
I am a local event producer and Lee is my "go-to guy" every time I need a DJ. He has an amazing talent for reading the crowd and a level of professionalism that I can always trust. Hands down, the best!!

Lee from Hey Mister DJ was so great. He truly went above and beyond for me and made the night rock, literally and figuratively! He helped me time the first dance, father/daughter and mother/son exactly as I wanted, and I loved their website playlist functionality. Lee also helped with the sound for the ceremony, which went so smoothly. He provided additional microphones for our reader and our officiant, which flowed perfectly with no hiccups at all. He also provided lighting services, and knew exactly what would be needed as far as up lights, etc. He's a true professional, a great guy, and I can't recommend him enough!
Everybody raved about how great the party was at my wedding! Lee was terrific! I can't say enough things about him! He is absolutely amazing! I would HIGHLY recommend him! :)
Lee was a fantastic vendor to work with. Super easy to deal with, helpful and experienced. He definitely knows how to really keep everyone engaged. He listened to our needs, and went above and beyond to deliver exactly what we wanted on our wedding day.
We had a terrific experience working with Lee of Hey Mister DJ for our wedding — he was incredibly professional, easy to work with, friendly, and receptive to what we wanted; he helped us organize the timeline for the day and even recommended a great day of coordinator; and he played great music, got everyone on the dance floor, did just the right amount of emceeing, and really went above and beyond to help our wedding day go wonderfully (and smoothly). And we got tons of compliments from our guests on him! Our venue recommended him, and we're incredibly glad they did because we couldn't have picked a better DJ.
Our wedding DJ was Jason aka DJ Cave. Lee's protocol at Hey Mr. DJ is that clients send a "Must Play," "Try to Play," and "Do Not Play" list - Jason played all our favorites, incorporated songs we hadn't though of, and kept the dance floor moving all night long! My husband and I stayed on the dance floor all night, which is pretty atypical for a the bride and groom. Jason understood our tastes and catered to them, while also playing crowd favorites that kept others on the dance floor. The next day my body was totally sore from all the dancing! Both Jason and Lee were also pleasure to work with - they are cool and laid-back while also be assertive and organized. Highly recommended!
Lee is a fantastic DJ. If you are looking for a low key super NOT cheesy DJ he is your man. He really understood the vibe we wanted for our wedding. Didn't go overboard on the emcee'ing and contributed greatly to the pace and mood of the reception. When it came time to dance the music was spot-on. He can really read the room.. He respected what kind of tunes we wanted and even turned down a bribe from my husband's cousin to play Def Leppard. :) HA!!! Thanks for that one, Lee.
We just used Mister DJ for our wedding and couldn't have been better! Lee is completely professional, fair and accommodating. The music was fantastic. Would highly recommend!
HeymisterDJ - I'm so glad to have worked w/ a professional like Lee Dyson who knows what he’s doing. As anyone will tell you... music, lighting, ambiance -- these are critical elements… and to a BRIDE on her wedding day, these are of utmost importance to ensure a beautiful day. Thanks to Lee, our wedding turned into a great big dance party (just as we requested) because we wanted to emphasize LOVE & FUN. When we wanted raw emotion for the first dances, somehow Lee was able to cue those too without any awkwardness. He’s got great flow, timing, and presence – and all our guests volunteered compliments on how awesome the music was. Truly, thank you for making our day memorable.
From the moment we met DJ Lee we felt comfortable with him and confident he would be amazing at our wedding! DJ Lee was great at playing songs from our list as well as paying attention to the vibe of the crowd and picking songs on his own that would best fit! All of our guests said that our DJ played the best mix! Not only was he good with music but he also is very flexible, we asked him at the end of the night to extend an hour and he did with no issues! We appreciated his willing to stay greatly. I would recommend DJ Lee to anyone looking for an amazing DJ!
We could not have been more pleased with DJ Lee and his contribution to our celebration. All of our guests commented on his excellent song choices. On top of that, he really knows exactly how to read the room, respond on the mic, and keep an event on track. It's almost like having a second wedding coordinator there to ensure that everyone is having the best time possible. Truly fantastic!
I speak on behalf of both my wife and I -
We interviewed about 4 DJ's for our wedding to get a feel for who would be the best. DJ Lee Dyson stood out by far as the best candidate. Fast forward many months later: DJ Lee Dyson is reassuring my bride on the details of songs, the flow of the night, etc. A huge relief for the groom! Fast forward a few more weeks - everything goes off without a hitch. Lee plays tunes that appealed to everyone at the party, from the young to the old. He was observant of the energy of the audience, the timing of events (meals serving, toasts, etc. to which he tailored his sets to. He timed our 'first dance' perfectly, which my wife was nervous about, and made sure that everything was seamless throughout the night. All in all, I would recommend DJ Lee Dyson to any friend, family member or acquaintance! He is worth every penny!
Thank you Lee!
Lee is truly the best!! He was DJ for our with my sister double wedding at the Rancho Chiquita in August 2015 in Malibu and having him as our DJ was the best decision ever! From our initial meeting with him, he was down to earth, friendly, and very professional. We also rented a projector for the surprise video for the groom for a very reasonable price.
Aside from sending him a list of song requests prior to the wedding, we told him that its ok to play songs that he think will feel right at the moment and I am so glad we did! He really knows how to read the crowd and seamlessly transition from song to song and organically get everyone onto the dance floor.
So many of our guests have complimented us about how great the music was and how much fun they had! I highly recommend hiring Hey mister dj for your special day.
Lee was absolutely amazing! My husband and I found him after a long search for the right dj to do our wedding. He listened to what we wanted and delivered 100%!!! We were so pleased with everything and the ultimate success was the great comments from our guests. Now we are just trying to figure out when we can use him again! If you are still searching for the right dj, don't wait or look any further, give Lee a call!
Again, thank you Lee for making our party so fun and memorable!

Best DJ! Lee was so easy to work with. We really felt like we were on the same page. He took our song list and thoughts about what we wanted, and executed perfectly! We danced ALL night!!! I highly recommend.
Lee did a great job! All the songs were on point at the ceremony and when he announced the wedding party he got all the names right and did a great job MC'ing. Songs were great and he kept everyone dancing throughout the night! Thanks Lee!
Lee was a consummate pro. He's got great taste in music, and was able to make the varied demographics at my wedding happy (and dancing) all at once. Highly recommended.
Hey Mister DJ really made the wedding rock and roll with the music we requested, along with some of his own when I forgot to request certain songs. I loved the music he played and everyone had a great time dancing to it!
Lee DJ'd at our wedding at the Natural History Museum and hiring him was one of the best things we could've done. My husband is a musician and extremely picky about who we hired because music in general is very important to him. We must have met with 5 DJs but even after all of that, we knew we wanted to work with Lee. He is so confident, professional, and really knew how to read the room. He also had great suggestions on additional lighting that would set the right tone and bar placement in the room where our reception was held. He was also very responsive and easy to get a hold of leading up to the wedding. I would highly recommend him for any type of event!
Hey Mister DJ was absolutely fantastic. They helped make our wedding so fun! It was a pleasure working with DJ Chris. He made everything feel so seamless and easy! Even with the surprise rain (rain in Topanga in July????), he made it work! He really went the extra mile to make sure we were able to have our ceremony and cocktail hour moved inside. He checked the weather forecast, touched base with our coordinator, and brought up extra equipment to make it happen.
Our friends and family had a great time dancing and celebrating. All the songs he played really kept the mood going.
Lee handled all the administrative details and made everything so simple for us.
Thanks again!
Chris with Hey Mr. DJ was great! He was our DJ for our recent October wedding and we couldn't have asked for a better DJ. We gave him an idea of the types of music we liked and wanted to hear and he was spot on. He also did a great job reading our crowd and always seemed to play the perfect song at the right time to keep everyone energized.
Lee was great! The music was perfect and exactly what we were looking for. We appreciated that he incorporated our personal interests and tastes in music and made it feel like our own, while keeping the night moving forward and people on the dance floor! We received lots of compliments on the music and flow, including the fact that people could easily talk with each other at the tables while the music was playing! The balance between music and direction from you to the guests was perfect. Everyone described our wedding as very fun, and Lee was a big part of that.
We were very pleased with Lee from Hey Mister DJ for our wedding! He was easy to work with prior to the event and was very informative...he knows his stuff! On the day of, he arrived on time and got everything ready in time for the wedding festivities (ceremony sound, reception DJ booth, ballroom lighting, and the projector & screen for the slideshow). He did a great job during the reception keeping us organized and on our timeline. The music for dancing was very well done...he really had a good sense of the crowd and switched things up accordingly. It was fun for all ages! Lee was NOT cheesy and didn't blabber into the mic all night. Overall, we highly recommend Hey Mister DJ!
My wedding was in March 2014 and planned very fast. DJ Mark from Hey Mister DJ worked my wedding and did an amazing job! He was very patient as I still didn't have a song list the week of the wedding, and he was great about putting together the music last minute and everything flowed perfectly that day. The music was fantastic and Mark was wonderful to work with (as was Lee who initially set everything in motion). The cost was very reasonable as I shopped around and compared with other vendors. My company has also used Hey Mister DJ for quite a few of our big events and they are very reliable and wonderful to work with. Call them!
Lee at Hey Mr. DJ was so fantastic at our wedding! He's extremely friendly and personable when you meet him, and so helpful with working through your wants and needs for the big day. We worked on a small list of must play/don't play/optional songs and he made sure to take everything we wanted into consideration, and then learned from our tastes to craft the perfect mix for us. He's flexible on your day and can easily roll with any changes or last minute needs, and so many of our guests came up to me to compliment me on the music - coming from a huge family that goes to a ton of weddings and all love to dance (until they practically kick us out) that's a big compliment! Lee was able to handle both the ceremony and receptipn which made things a million times less complicated since we didn't have to coordinate musicions, and we could customize everything to a T. He's is professional and just a really nice guy to put you at ease on your wedding day. Can't recommend him enough!
DJ Richard was a great pick for our wedding ceremony, reception and cocktail hour. He asked for some songs we liked and was able to fill in the blanks with great selections that fit to the environment we wanted to create for our guests!
We hired Lee Dyson (of Hey Mister DJ) for our ceremony, cocktail hour, & reception, based in part upon his strong prior reviews. I sent him a lot of email questions in preparation (as I'm pretty detail-oriented), but he patiently responded and provided guidance. During the preparation, his experience and calm personality helped reassure us that he would handle the event well -- which allowed us to focus on other things. He was interested in shaping the event to our liking and requested our input; but he also helped to provide guidance when some of our song selections didn't fit well with each other or otherwise were inappropriate. On the day of the event, he got all of the details right (songs, timing, etc.). We had a Sunday-night wedding with a slightly older crowd, plus a number of children. He kept the guests dancing much longer than I would've expected. Excellent job. I would highly recommend.
Lee was great! He listened to everything we wanted and it all came out great! We let him take the lead on some things and it was just perfect! Sound, lights, songs...all fantastic! Could not have picked a better Dj and MC!
Lee is the best wedding DJ I have ever heard at a wedding. We were lucky enough to meet him at a friend's wedding and booked him for our late May wedding. Throughout my planning he was in constant contact and had knowledge about the venue and our selections on music. At the wedding he was on time, helpful, and flexible to the schedule changing, due to our best man being held up at work (a fireman). He also was great in mixing in all types of music and had almost all the guests dancing throughout the night, from the 2 year olds to the 80 year olds. Lee was also accommodating to our song choices, as some of the songs were far too long and needed to be edited down, he was kind and supportive in helping us figure this out. Friends and Family are raving to us about how great the selection was. He was also fantastic in playing the dj role: no cheesy games, or unnecessary interruptions. I highly recommend Lee to anyone.
DJ Lee is a professional who knows his music... His experience and insight helped us out before and during our wedding day! xoxo
My wife and I were recently married in Malibu. Lee was hired to be our DJ for after dinner, but what we got was so much more.
He very diligently broke down the entire day via time and section. Made sure there was proper music at all the appropriate sections of the evening (cocktail hour, ceremony, dinner) as well as the after dinner section.
Lee gave us a personalized experience and even did a site visit with his video camera. Very well prepped and extremely easy to work with.
He advised us on production and really helped to make the day effortless. We turned over control of the after dinner music selection to him and the vibe was perfect.
Just plain and simple advice: Hire this guy - he understands how to be professional and work with any scenario.
We heard about HeyMisterDJ through a recommendation, and met with Lee. We both liked that he was very professional, well informed, and asked all the right questions. During the planning process, he was easy to work with and gave us a clear timeline and song priority list as a guide.
He was very open to playing exactly what we wanted, and offered ideas/options in areas of the ceremony we were unsure of. He was also very accommodating to last minute provisions and changes and came up.
On the wedding day, he was terrific with guests. Very personable and friendly. But most importantly, he was organized and had great attention to detail. I can't stress this aspect enough. From my perspective, the best service received is when you enjoy everything, and forget the service is even there; where everything just flows seamlessly. At no point throughout the day, did we ever have to worry anything with him; he simply took care of his responsibilities confidently. And when anything did need addressing (guest questions, vibe of music, etc) he came to me. I never had to seek him out. Again, very professional and asked all the right questions!
It should also be noted that HeyMisterDJ's rates are very reasonable. I very much doubt you'd get better service for their prices, and I'd happily recommend Lee (and HeyMisterDJ) to anyone!
If you're looking for a DJ for your wedding or special event, then look no further! Lee Dyson of "Hey Mister DJ" came highly recommended and he did not disappoint! Lee was very nice and professional from the moment we first met. He was very thorough in going over the details of the wedding and made recommendations based on the event details and timeline. Lee communicated and worked well with all our other vendors (who were also our friends), and when we had a slight technical glitch he worked to quickly resolve it. It's safe to say that our wedding day wouldn't have gone as smoothly without Lee's recommendations and help. If you're looking for a DJ for your special day, go with Lee, he's very professional and a nice guy also!
DJ Lee of "Hey Mister DJ" did such an AMAZING job on our
wedding day! He by far exceeded our expectations and was very affordable. We had a very unique theme last minute for our wedding. Since our wedding was the same night as the oscars, we incorporated an oscar theme. I fell in love with a movie soundtrack that I wanted to use for the entire processional and was told by our coordinator that it wouldn't work because it was too short, but Lee found a way to loop the song and inserted the grand entrance part of the song (that I loved most) for my entrance seamlessly. We also introduced our wedding party oscar style. Everyone was introduced with an award. For example, "and for best actor in a supporting role, best man: Jason....!" And Lee played a movie soundtrack as each person collected their award. Lee was so great at meeting with us to make it all work and even added to it by playing movie soundtracks throughout dinner --GENIUS!! He kept the party going after dinner too, there were always people dancing and people kept telling me how it was the best wedding that they had ever been too. I was told before the wedding that I should expect at least one thing to go wrong--that could not have been further from the truth. My wedding was beyond perfect!! I was blown away and it truly was the best night of my life.
If you're reading this you know the search for "the right" DJ can be both intimidating and daunting. After tons of research, looking (and listening) at an endless series of websites, our search led us to Hey Mister DJ. Not only was Lee amazing, but he just seemed to "get it" if that makes sense. Everyone at Hey Mr. DJ was great: on time, reasonably priced, and fun to have around. So stop searching, give 'em a call, and tell 'em Willie and Lori sent you!
Richard was spectacular at our wedding!! We've been getting compliments about him ever since our wedding, which was now almost three months ago. His playlist was spot-on for our audience. The dance floor was packed from the second guests were welcomed to the floor and stayed packed all night. It was the most consistently full dance floor we've ever seen at a wedding and our guests agree! He was able to cleverly mix all of our "must plays" into the rest of his playlist, playing all of the latest dance music without any overplayed or cheesy songs and catering perfectly to everyone from our friends/bridal party in their mid-20s to our grandma in her mid-80s. The sound was perfect for the space too. And he did an excellent job as the MC, running the night and keeping us on schedule without being pushy, which was a huge relief for us since we didn't have a planner. It was a pleasure to have him as our DJ. Everyone had an absolute blast! We couldn't be happier with Richard's performance.
DJ Lee is the "DJ without the cheese!!" Very efficient and thorough. I'm very meticulous, he performed perfectly. He delivered everything on point, no hassle, no complaint, and extremely professional. You will not be disappointed. I was hesitant at first to use a DJ and not a band, I'm glad I chose Lee. He made choosing music easy, gave us lots of recommendations and this thoughts and experience, which he has plenty of. The music background is well-versed, he knows a lot of genres out there, huge collection of music. We couldn't find enough songs to complete our time for cocktail and reception hour, he was able to do that for us and change the genre or theme. He's not your normal DJ, he's a professional music master that performs at events. He doesn't miss a beat when it comes to your wedding!!
Hey Mister DJ was absoulty the best move we made in makling our wedding just that much more special. Richard was our DJ and he had everyone dancing from start to finish!! He made our wedding a fun and unforgetable night!! I also got my lighting done with them and it gave my reception the exact feel I was going for, and just added a beautiful touch to everything. I am so thankful to him and Lee for making our wedding a night we will always remember!!
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for great music, service, and quality!!
