My husband and I hired Party Proper for our wedding in May 2022 and they absolutely made our dream wedding what it was!! Music was a top priority for us so we wanted to get it right. Andrew was our DJ, and Party Proper partners with Brett Hunter and other live musicians who we included in our package as well. Brett is an AMAZING singer and guitarist (he was on The Voice!) and brought a perfect acoustic vibe to our ceremony and cocktail hour. It was magical walking down the aisle with my dad to Brett's voice, and we got so many compliments from guests about how talented Brett was.
Andrew killed the DJing during the reception and read the room PERFECTLY. He played all the right songs. One of the best decisions we made for our music was having the DJ paired with live musicians (saxophone and drums) and there were several moments during the reception where the sax player captivated the crowd's energy and made everyone go wild. We loved the DJ/live music combo because it allowed us to have the versatility of an expert DJ with the energy of a live band. I highly, highly recommend that combo - it was the best dance party ever. My aunt even said, "I've never seen anyone attack the dance floor at a wedding like they did at yours!" Guests I never thought would be on the dance floor were gettin' down the whole night. And of course, my husband and I had an absolute BLAST the whole night and didn't leave the dance floor once! It was the wedding of our dreams and the most memorable night - we will never forget it (people are still talking about it 5 months later!). I think we've heard more positive feedback from our guests on the entertainment than on any other piece of the wedding.
Party Proper, Brett, and team were so much more than we could have even imagined. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention how EASY it was to work with Kayla, who coordinated everything leading up to our wedding. She was responsive, knowledgeable, friendly, chill, and super on top of things. Party Proper was one of our vendors that was the easiest to work with and made the process so seamless and enjoyable. We were so excited about Party Proper & Brett from the get-go and everyone absolutely surpassed our expectations. Thank you, Party Proper, Brett, and team!!
The last iteration of our wedding (covid-cancelled) was going to be 100 people with a live 7 piece funk band. We wanted the same impact with a DJ for our down-sized micro wedding of 35. When we were brainstorming vendors for a DJ for with our wedding planner, we knew that wanted the same vibe that would make our intimate reception really feel like an epic dance party. He recommended Party Proper, mentioning that they offered options to add live instruments to accompany the DJ... we were sold.
We set up a call with Kayla and described our vision, and she totally got it and who were were. It was important to us to have a more timeless musical experience that would excite the grandparents too, not a bunch of "viral" tik-tok hits. We worked on a shared Spotify playlist so they got a sense of the journey we wanted to take our guests on, and had them cover music from the Ceremony, to Cocktail Hour, through Dinner, and then added a Saxophonist to accompany the DJ for the Reception.
Holy cow were we completely blown away!
The ceremony transitions were clean, the dinner playlist was what steakhouse jazz dreams are made of, and the way Andrew (DJ) and Evan (Sax) performed together was incredible. Having a sax accompaniment added a textural element to the music that made it feel like bands from the 50's were right there performing live for us. Everyone danced all night, and we still hear from our friends and family about how incredible the music was, raving about not only the selection, but how great the flow and energy was, and how unexpected and brilliant it was to have a live instrument paired with a DJ. They riffed together seamlessly. We're still not over how amazing it was!
Thanks again for a night to remember Party Proper!
Andrew and Kayla are the best DJs money can buy. They make you feel like they've been your friends your whole life. They kept the whole wedding on the dance floor all night long, from the oldest to the youngest guest. We gave them the freedom to pick the songs played at the wedding but gave them the vibe we were looking for and they KILLED it to say the least. They are the best in the city of Santa Barbara and we look forward to the future weddings they DJ with anticipation. Cannot say enough positive things about these two. HIRE them! They will make your wedding spectacular.
