Music by Bonnie & Company- DJs for Special Events

hat meant she was a valuable resource to us as we navigated the earliest stages of wedding planning. Though we had some changes up until a couple of days before, she didn't miss a single beat on the day. She did an amazing job all-around and really kept the party going! Highly recommend!

ntire planning process and day of. Neither me or my husband are very musically inclined, and she handled all of the heavy work of creating a great playlist with basic info she gathered from us. Our Day of Coordinator raved about how easy and great she was to work with. Bonnie truly made our wedding schedule come to life and provided a great party that really hit the mark with the attendees as we danced the night away. We would highly recommend Bonnie for anyone’s DJ needs. She was a huge part of making our night as great as it was!

orked seamlessly with our vendor and other vendors the day of the wedding. We had an amazing dance party where everyone was getting down on the floor thanks to her! She’s also the absolute sweetest person and gave us a nice wedding gift after the reception. I highly recommend booking Bonnie!

searching online and her love for music and being a DJ stood out to us. We are not from the area and found ease in contacting Bonnie via email or texts to communicate what we wanted out of our wedding day. Bonnie provided us with electric energy and was an extremely positive presence throughout our wedding. She played all the songs we requested on our wedding playlist and more! The dance floor was never empty! When wedding guests reminisce about our wedding day the first thing they say is “Your DJ was amazing”. We would recommend Bonnie to anyone who wants their reception to be the event of the year. Thank you again, Bonnie!

e DJ during and after the wedding. We highly recommend Bonnie !

has such a wonderful way of making the day feel seamless and smooth with every transition between parts of the wedding from the toasts to the first dance feel so natural. We had tons of compliments on the music, and loved how well she read the crowd as far as what everyone seemed to respond to dancing wise. Not only is she great with music and weddings, she has a natural gift with people. Easy to talk to, great communicator, and puts your mind at ease that everything will be fantastic for the big day. SO GRATEFUL!

mail and phone. They had all the set up or told you what else was needed (like a table). They have done so many weddings that they know the right questions to ask so that all your bases, entertainment wise, are covered. Lastly, Bonnie knows the business and people so well that she recommended just about all our our vendors!

Everyone at the wedding complimented the music and people were dancing until the last song. I would recommend Bonnie to anyone I know getting married in the area. She was wonderful!

o work with, extremely experienced, and reliable. She gave helpful suggestions and made accommodations. Definitely recommend Bonnie for your wedding or any special event

or a wedding that transitions straight into the reception at the same location, having the right person is essential, as perfect sound is required for the ceremony, the transitions, the speeches, announcements, and of course the dancing. For all of this, we wanted a true professional; Bonnie is surely that! Being out of towners looking for a DJ for our wedding and reception, we were uncertain as to what the experience might hold. From the start, Bonnie was welcoming, asked very thoughtful questions, and was not only interested in learning the specifics of what we were looking for, but was interested in our story and knowing us. We came away feeling as those we had someone that really understood us, knew what we were looking for, and also someone that was going to handle everything, regardless of the curveballs that could be presented. She was ready and had a plan! Having been doing this for some time, Bonnie knew all the vendors for weddings, and also gave us fantastic references for the other things we were trying to figure out (again being out of towners). When it came to execution, she was spot on! We had several people that were hard of hearing, so we wanted to make sure the sound was right, especially for the ceremony. For the reception, we wanted and environment where people could talk with one another since so many people traveled from out of town. We still wanted to party though! Bonnie knew just how to create the perfect sound environments to accommodate everything. We couldn’t have been happier.

is team is the best in the biz! My first interaction with them put my at ease, so happy we used MusicByBonnie!

with ours perfectly - relaxed and chill, making the wedding all about having fun and sharing the experience. My husband and I put together the majority of our playlist, and then handed it off to Bonnie to fill in the rest and it was perfect! She nailed our style and music tastes to a tee! Loved everything so much and highly recommend her for any occasion!

loved her and knew that she knew what she was doing. She was extremely professional and helpful and is so warm and friendly that when we finally met her, she felt like family. She did a fantastic job at our wedding and everyone danced the night away. I highly recommend Bonnie for all your DJ needs. She's the best!

th, flexible to your needs and requests, has a great sense of humor, friendly, and a great value. Our DJ at our wedding was her partner, Larry, who we had never met nor spoke to prior to the day-of. At first, I was a little unsure of what to think since I had never spoken to him; however, Bonnie was quick to assure me that Larry will take great care of us. Well, Larry did take great care of us and totally exceeded our expectations! He was a phenomenal DJ, attentive to our music requests as well as our guests, and spun the beats that kept the dance floor occupied with happy dancing feet. We highly recommend Bonnie and Larry for any and all DJ needs!

rovided a photobooth that everyone loved. I highly recommend them. Bonnie and her team were the best and such kind people.

ere fulfilled. I don't know how else to describe it but her energy put me at ease and she has an amazing spirit about her. Don't hesitate, I would definitely recommend booking her right away.

ony and reception- and he seriously blew everyone away. His execution was seamless, and the music absolutely set the perfect tone for a romantic ceremony and energetic reception. We can't thank him enough for helping us with our big day- he was the perfect MC & DJ!

nce, and Bonnie was so cool, calm, collected and reassured us that she would make the day perfect for us. She has also worked many weddings at our venue, The Riviera Mansion in Santa Barbara, so she helped us visualize where she would set up and how it would all go down. That was incredibly helpful as this was obviously our first experience planning a wedding at the Mansion! Beside being an expert at what she does, Bonnie is incredibly warm and kind. I can't emphasize how important it was for us to find vendors whom we wanted to spend our special day with. She truly exceeded our expectations in that area. Bonnie- thank you for giving us the wedding of our dreams and making sure we listened to our favorite jams all day long. ALSO- thank you for taking a couple special videos from the DJ booth...that was such a special touch! Much love- John and Elise

emony, cocktail hour, etc), and I chose specific songs for the processional, introduction, and cake cutting, but otherwise I just explained to Bonnie that the attendees of our wedding would be an older crowd (ages 40-70+), and I left the rest to Bonnie and her staff. Devon ended up being our DJ, as Bonnie went on a family trip, but he was excellent. We got lots of good feedback about him and the music played. It was the perfect soundtrack to our special day!

ything went perfectly. From the timing of all ceremony music, to our first dance, to the volume of the toasts, I was extremely impressed by his professionalism and his ability to manage the music without becoming an "MC". He did a wonderful job of incorporating all of our "must play" dance songs and managed to keep our guests on the dance floor for the entire night! Absolutely book Music by Bonnie for your wedding!!

We had several requests for songs on our "do not play" list and Melissa honored our do not play request. We thought it was really nice that Bonnie came by at the end of the night to help close out our wedding. Overall, Bonnie and her team are a great accompaniment to your wedding - they don't try and tell jokes or intrude - they announce the events and play awesome music. We definitely recommend Bonnie!

e music was phenomenal, everyone had a great time, thanks to the fabulous music.

ally. She was TERRIFIC!!

hat she mixed) and overall was very on top of it. We would've liked a few more slow songs, but we should have specified that...she was great and did everything we asked!

ng some options, we began communicating with Bonnie and after one phone call with her, we never looked back. Bonnie was marvelous to work with! She's honest, professional and has a passion for music. Even though we loved working with Bonnie, we didn't get to have her personally as our wedding DJ; but she booked us with Larry... and Larry was just as wonderful! He was the perfect balance of mellow and enthusiastic. We highly recommend the Music by Bonnie team!

songs we wanted that she did not have, and only a few days before spent an hour on the phone with me helping me to find the ceremony music! Her patience, knowledge of different genres of music and suggestions made this process a lot easier (I am very indecisive and she was 100% helpful). Everyone complimented us on our choice of wedding music, and Bonnie was excellent at keeping a good flow throughout the night. Go with her! You won't be disappointed.

break-dancing cousins was out there! Everyone was commenting on how great the DJ was! It was so much fun!! This is such a helpful group of people! The owner, Bonnie was hugely helpful and reassuring during the stress of it all. Our DJ, Malia was a gem! I had given her a list of songs to play and she did not deviate. When our limo pulled up she was waiting to go over last minute details and was so helpful. (FYI, we paid $1300 for 6 hours of awesome music. So worth it!) I HIGHLY recommend these DJs!!

moving everything inside and making everything work well. I'd recommend them to everyone having a wedding in the Santa Barbara area.

nderful! We also heard that Bonnie is a great DJ to work with as well. They did a great job setting up the music for both the ceremony and the reception and helped us coordinate and run the wedding event.

oyed having her there. She is super nice and really great at what she does! I would not recommend anyone else.

was her music. Her playlist is very lengthy allowing us to pick all types of music. I was even able to sneak in a couple of songs special to us. She was on time and kept the evening right on schedule. The room where she had to set up was small so we had quite a bit a contact. What a nice warm friendly person she is and everyone complimented on the job she did.

. We hadn't even hired her yet and she offered to help with any questions we had about other vendors. Once we picked Bonnie (within a week after meeting her) she was there to help. Bonnie herself was the one to DJ our wedding and the music was great! As soon as we opened up the dance floor it was packed! The floor was full and EVERYONE was dancing. The best part, Bonnie played such great music that the floor stayed packed the entire night! She made announcements at appropriate times and overall was a major role in our wedding being FANTASTIC! Thank you Bonnie!!!!

ong distance. We talked on the phone several months prior to the wedding and she made several recommendations for us on many of the wedding details outside of the DJ service. When Bonnie found out we wanted outdoor lighting at the wedding she worked with a local lighting contractor to come up with a great solution. She helped a lot as we planned trips prior to the wedding to select vendors. Having her advice was great as we weren’t local. The DJ at the wedding did an awesome job. We really didn't want any of what we consider the "typical wedding songs". Bonnie completely understood that and stuck with our requests, our guests requests, and did a great job of filling in anything in between. She also made great song recommendations prior to the wedding that we put on our playlist.
