. George was extremely through when it came time to specific songs playing at specific moments.
Sounds in Motion was the perfect DJ to hire for our wedding! From the beginning the team was very responsive. About a month before our wedding DJ George talked with us to work out...
the entire day’s schedule. On the day of, there were a few hiccups with the schedule, but none even that our guests noticed. All of our guests loved the DJ and said the music/party atmosphere was great.
AMAZING to work with from beginning to end! Everything went so smoothly and seamlessly and went off without a hitch! Dj company is so kind and responds quickly to any inquiries. I ...
was lost having never hired a DJ before and they helped guide me and offered suggestions when asked. Great team!
George is absolutely the best!! Couldn’t have asked for a better DJ!
My husband & I had DJ George as our DJ for our wedding this November and he was great!! He was so personable, fun, and honest with us! We had a blast with him from picking out our ...
music, to ending the night with our sparkler sendoff. He had a pretty tough crowd to work with (we had a lot of older guests), and everyone had a blast and told us for weeks how much fun they had. This company is so worth the money! Thank you George & all of Sounds in Motion!
DJ George did our wedding this September and it was absolutely fantastic. We had a small area designated as the dance floor, but his energy and music selections had the entire room...
filled with people dancing until midnight. He played a great mix of music to accommodate parents and friends. He was also our MC and did an amazing job. He was a pleasure to work with and I would definitely recommend booking sounds in motions for your special day!
George is amazing. He made my wedding the best party. He is very professional, fun, outgoing, and funny. He made sure my guest had a good time with laughs, good music and nonstop d...
ancing. I highly recommend sounds in motion for your next event.
This company is phenomenal! DJ George met with us and he spent hours with us fine tuning all of the details, time line, and song choices. We also had a great time chatting and laug...
hing. Three hours flew by. After we left the meeting my husband said, “Wow, you’re right a great DJ is really important to make the day run smoothly”. Knowing DJ George was the DJ for our wedding and I absolutely had no worries and I knew it would run smoothly. It was like I had a DJ and an event planner all in one. The day of our wedding went completely smooth! DJ George was so fun, entertaining, and really got the crowd going. We partied all night long! We got so many compliments about our DJ! DJ George walks around and talks to the crowd he does not just stay in one place. The music was perfect and exactly what we and our guests love. I could text George anytime with any questions I had and he responded immediately. Also, anytime I called Sounds in Motion Malia would answer and she is so extremely sweet and professional. I never even had to leave a voice message because Malia always answered the phone. You will not regret booking with Sounds in Motion and you will stress WAY less having them as your vendor. There is literally nothing to worry about with Sounds in Motion as your DJ. This company is highly organized, dependable, and professional. Those are the three major qualities you want in a vendor. I highly recommend this company!
Awesome
let me start by saying CODY WAS AWESOME!!!!! I just got married in South Lake Tahoe and had him DJ our wedding. All of our guests loved him and we recieved so many compliments abo...
ut the DJ! I remember watching him at the dinner reception, as he walked around and mingled with the guests at different tables. This was nice because it made our guests feel comfortable to be able to requests songs, or just make a new friend at the wedding. The lighting he used was also very impressive. The wedding coordinator we used also couldnt stop complimenting us about his service. Overall, I am so pleased with his service and Sounds in Motion!! THANK YOU!
Jason was our DJ and he did an amazing job! He worked with our coordinator to make announcements as needed to keep things moving smoothly. We met with George prior to the wedding...
and he was very helpful picking the music for our ceremony and reception. Sounds in Motion does this a lot and they are very organized, and respected by venue owners.
George is the owner of this business, and he is one of the most fun people I've ever met! He made our planning process so much fun!!! His brother Jerry ended up DJing our wedding, ...
and he did an outstanding job. He read the crowd really well and played awesome music the whole night. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars for service was because of our awkward dealings with George's secretary Noelani. She was very unprofessional and rude, but all of the issues were resolved by George and his wonderful wife, Erin.
Sounds in Motion did an AMAZING job for our wedding. The DJ, Cody, was awesome. Our family and friends, along with us, LOVED him. He had the crowd going & was interactive with o...
ur wedding group. During the planning of our wedding, George, was so helpful with selecting the music and spend a few hours planning out our schedule. Not only did they play amazing music and have an fantastic DJ, helping us plan the schedule helped so much. It made the wedding flow so smooth & everything fell into place. And their sound system, no issues AT ALL. I recently went to a wedding and the DJ's speakers went out a couple of times, that definitely didn't happen with Sounds In Motion. We had no issues with sound at all. I'm definitely a fan of Sounds In Motion.
Working with Adrian and Rafi to set up for our wedding was easy. Given the wedding was on a Thursday they gave us a great rate. The website and online information was easy to use...
prior to the event for planning and payments. Nick C was fantastic on the day. He did a great job setting up for the ceremony. The reception was fantastic. The up-lighting kits created a great atmosphere. Nick and his assistant did a fantastic job keeping everyone up and dancing (the kids needed less encouragement) and in taking and keeping requests and reading the crowd while managing to listen to our concerns about music choice.
We LOVED Sound In Motion!!! My new husband and I had heard horror stories from other brides about DJ's not listening to them so we were a little weary of hiring a DJ. We hired S...
ound in Motion based on a recommendation by our wedding planner and photographer and we were very surprised at how wonderful they were. KEVIN is the BEST!!! He played every song we wanted - he understood our taste in music and played the right songs to match them.
My fiance loved Raffi the moment we met him and there really was no other choice for a DJ for our wedding this past weekend. Raffi was wonderful to work with from the beginning an...
d was able to manage my fiance who wanted to talk "tech" to me just caring about good music and a great time. I've never seen so many people on the dance floor so fast at a wedding or stay on the dance floor till thee very last song. From music for my teenage cousins to the "young" at heart in the room Raffi played something for everyone. The lighting was added a wonderful element to the evening. Thank you Raffi for helping make our day AMAZING. I just need it to be groundhogs day and me able to relive the night as a guest.
I had a outdoor wedding, my venue was large and spread out. I was particularly concerned with getting all of my 125 guests in one area for the dance and cake cutting. We meet with ...
sounds in motion and from the beginning my experience with them was fantastic. They were organized, detailed and had the experience to help with with the planning and time line of my evening. They had a huge array of music available to my husband and I. The night of my wedding was amazing. The dj was funny, and made my guests laugh and they were very entertained. I wanted my wedding to be fun for everyone form my friends to my parents friends and sounds in motion helped me achieve just that.
Sound in Motion was on the recommended vendor list for our venue. They had great reviews, and we were not disappointed.
Kevin was the one coordinating all our contracts. Origin...
ally, we just contracted for a DJ, but then later we decided to throw in a Photobooth as well. Payments were made online, and contracts were e-mailed, signed and then mailed back to the company without any issues.
Nick was our DJ- he was awesome! We had a consultation five or six months before the wedding so he could get an idea on our wedding day needs. Sound in Motion uses an online system for you to input music requests, blacklisted songs (i.e. the Chicken Dance in our case), order of ceremony and reception events, names of wedding party member names, etc. Nick provided flawless microphone and music for the outdoor ceremony site. He was the MC and ran the main DJ booth at the reception site , while an assistant, Max, ran the Photobooth. Nick was very open to music suggestions (ours included a lot of Indie, somewhat hard to find music- he found it all), did a phone consultation with me a few weeks before the wedding to review the entire wedding and let me know I could email him any time with questions/changes (he was so on-the-ball, I didn't need to do a second phone consultation the week before the wedding like he suggested). He was excellent at co-coordinating the reception activities with my venue wedding coordinator in order to provide enough time between each activity with adequate breaks for dancing. As a DJ, he had never done the "shoe game" for a bride and groom, though he'd heard of it. So, he researched and pulled that off as well. My guests loved it. By the end of the night, our dance floor was PACKED. I've been to weddings where the dance floor was an awkward dead no-man's land, but Nick kept it going with all the latest dance music (and threw in a few slow songs at my request). Everyone is still talking about how much fun they had on the dance floor at my wedding.
I found out after the fact he had forgotten the Mp3 for the song for our last dance. One of my groomsman later told me how Nick had pulled him aside, and they had hurriedly downloaded and transferred the song to his DJ equipment at the last minute. I had no clue- great problem-solving on Nick's part. =) I also thought it was adorable when he and Mex asked my permission to sit at a guest table. My guests were very friendly, saw they were eating alone and invited them over. As a bride I appreciate his thoughtfulness in asking first, although I thought it was very sweet and had no problem at all with it.
The photobooth was so much fun! It's a newer trend I think and SO WORTH IT. They provide someone to run the booth, give you a ton of props (hats, signs, etc) to put on, give you the option of B&W or color, and you get two printed copies of the photos immediately. Kevin handles the design of the print-outs, and he found something that went very well with our wedding theme. After the wedding, Kevin mailed us a thumb-drive with a copy of all the photo booth photos! I was able to upload them to the internet, so all my friends/family could have extra copies. LOVED IT.
Thank you so much Kevin, Nick and Max!! =D
The DJ could of played more up beat dancing music or more music to keep people on the dance floor. Even I thought it was boring. But overall DJ and photobooth was a hit.
We had Tyler as our DJ at the wedding and he did a great job of keeping the party going without being too much of a presence at the wedding. He handled things smoothly, even when w...
e had to change things last minute and was really nice to work with throughout the planning process. He keeps you calm. The sound system and lighting were nice as well. Overall, highly recommend Sound in Motion.
I had such high hopes for this DJ. They came highly recommended by my photographers (who happen to be my cousins) who have been to a lot of weddings. Sounds in Motion was proud to ...
show off their "brag books" of all of their happy couples who have used them. I thought they were awful! They said they had done several wedding at my outdoor venue and how beautiful it was. During speeches the microphone died multiple times. I made a list of "must play" songs and most of them were not played. Everything was rushed and at 10pm DJ Jason comes to me and says he can add an extra hour when I had talked to George and already paid for the extra hour in advance!! I emailed George after the wedding because I was so disappointed and he blamed it on the venue saying they always have electrical issues at that venue and a year ago out there the electricity was out for 2 HOURS! He said a generator was needed out there. I emailed him back saying we had 2 generators out there just in case and the DJ should have told someone, anyone that! Never got a response. He didn't motivate the crowd at all and seemed disconnected and uninterested throughout reception. I would not recommend them. Some people got great service but we had to pay the same price as them for a huge disappointment. I've had more fun at friends weddings who just used an iPod for their music and had an uncle to introduce everyone. Jason only said first names to introduce after I had written out everyone's first and last name phonetically.
First, before you look at the cost above and think...whoa, way too expensive for a DJ...we had not only the DJ services, but a photobooth, sound system for the ceremony, mics for p...
erformers during the reception and a slideshow screen and projector.
Our DJ Andrew was great...so easy to work with and was able to meet with us in the San Jose location (where we live) rather than our having to drive to their Santa Cruz location (which is closer to where we had our wedding). He was very professional but very easy-going and great to work with. He had a lot of helpful suggestions and was great with finding some of the wacky music we wanted played during the reception. He made sure all the special songs/dedications we wanted were done, the timeline was kept (but not in a rigid, bad way...a non-interfering good way).
The photobooth was a great hit with our guests and we had a thumbdrive with all the pics and an album immediately from them. It was great fun to look at the album while we were on our honeymoon. There were some really fun pics captured.
They supply props for folks to use in getting their pics done and the machine does two strips of three photos per session....so your guests can take one and one goes in the album. We had a little thank you note, our names and the wedding date down at the bottom so the photos could be the favor that everyone took home with them (because then it was something they created, had fun with and wanted). It was a great hit!
The sound for the ceremony, reception (we had several singers/musicians attending so they would perform at random), and the music for the reception were awesome! They did a great job using the music we indicated to build a play list that we and our guests loved. We got so many compliments.
Thanks Sound In Motion!!!
Sound in Motion has such a friendly staff and paired us with the perfect DJ/Master of Ceremonies for this event! They also provided us with a photo booth that really made our weddi...
ng so much fun! They made everything so easy and stress-free!
George was the DJ for our November wedding. Prior to the wedding, we met to choose entrance music, ideas for dinner and a "must" play list. As usual, he brought the party and kept ...
the crowd dancing all night. He also does a great job as an emcee and is accommodating to any style/selection of music! We love DJ George :)
We hired Sound in Motion for our November 2012 wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Adrian was our main go-to person, and he was helpful beyond what we expe...
cted. He really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time at our wedding, and his timing as being the MC was flawless-- everything that happened had enough time to enjoy it, but nothing lasted too long, and the flow was great. He did a fantastic job DJing, combining the music we requested with other requests from guests and popular music, and the dance floor was hopping! We would definitely hire Sound in Motion again.
Sound in motion provides everything that you would want as far as music for your event. We used them for lighting, live music and DJ services. They did everything we asked and mo...
re. Since they are the key Dj for the 49ers they even helped us with some special requests.
We used Sounds in Motion for our wedding in Sept. 2012. Our DJ was George and he was amazing. Our guests were on their feet all night while he kept the party going. There was ne...
ver a dull moment and we received many compliments about how much fun the DJ was from our guests. George has a great personality and it's obvious he enjoys what he does. I would definitely recommend Sounds in Motion DJ's to everyone.
Sound in Motion is hands down the best DJs!!! Andrew Rivas made our wedding!!!
They really work with you to produce an awesome event! I have a completely different taste in music than the average central valley person does! My groom & I HATE top 40, coun...
try, crap rap & R&B... Love indie, electro, rock n roll, stuff not played over and over on the radio. They nailed it & worked with our out there music requests!!! The DJ they assigned us for our night mixed in our vows on the last song of the night from earlier at our ceremony... He even serenaded us with a ukelele before we left for the hotel after the party ended!!! Two great surprises!!! Besides killing it at the cocktail & reception w/awesome music! Can't give these guys enough stars! Sooooooooo good!
We hired sound in motion for a DJ and for lighting. We went with Andrew as our DJ and he was the best! He met with us a few times to discuss the timeline and music. On the day of t...
he event he kept everything flowing smoothly. He made sure to let them know when the receiving line began, he introduced people giving toasts, he let the guests know when it was time to cut the cake, toss the bouquet, etc. And when everyone was dancing, he really read the crowd and played GREAT music. I would highly recommend Andrew. Then as the sun went down, and the uplighting came into play, the reception room looked beautiful. It really gave an elegant touch.
Andrew at Sound in Motion DJ'd our event! It was an amazing time -- the music was just our style... and he worked with us to get the playlist just right up until 12 hours before th...

Sounds in Motion is awesome! Their slogan is "Exceeding Expectations...One Wedding At A Time"-and that's exactly what they did!! I had my set-up appointment with George, and we wen...
t over every song I wanted, didn't want, etc. Everything was detailed out. He suggested some songs when I got stuck, and was willing to play anything, and set up the days' schedule to my wants/needs. Very flexible and easy to work with. The day of the event, my DJ, Jerry (George's brother) looked exactly how I had expected (yes, they ask you what the DJ should be wearing!), and played everything George & I had set up. He was constantly involving the crowd, and took requests with pleasure (he was bombarded with requests from my kids).
Overall-a very good choice. My guests loved it!
Check them out-you're not going to find anyone better.
Raffi, our DJ for our wedding, was fantastic! He was absolutely amazing, especially with our timeline. I have received so many compliments that our DJ, Raffi, was the absolute best...
they have ever been able to enjoy at any event or wedding, and the dancing was the best!
Thank you Raffi for giving our guests an amazing experience!!
Brides -- ask for Raffi and you definitely will not go wrong with him or Sound in Motion!
Andrew Rivas was our DJ for both the ceremony music and reception. He also provided all the microphone service. Andrew was really nice to work with really helped with our song sele...
ctions. He worked really hard on the day of to keep everything running on time.
Andrew and Sound in Motion were awesome to work with and I would highly recommend!
The lighting company (or event design firm as they like to be called) that my venue suggested quoted me a price for lighting that was almost as much as I paid for the venue rental....
JUST FOR LIGHTS! So I started to shop around. I requested a quote from Sound In Motion almost as a joke. I mean, they provide services for the 49ers! How could I afford to hire them? And then Kevin got back to me and amazed me. They were able to not only provide lighting within my budget, but they were able to pick up the equipment from the venue right after the reception was over at no additional 'late night' charge. You don't always get what you pay for. Sometimes, as Sound In Motion proved, you get so much more!
It is so frustrating....this dj company has done majority of all of the weddings that I have been to. Unfortunately the owner who I booked more than a year out decided to dj someo...
ne else that was more important. The DJ screwed up all of the introductions. I felt as though it was a waste of time to pick out songs that were never even played. My wedding was a dream come true and I just wish that this part wouldve been as perfect as the rest of it. :(
We had George as our Dj and he was wonderful he was able to have my wedding run so smoothly it was so nice. He makes your day wonderful
We had DJ Jason. He was great being able to read the crowd and play songs. Everyone danced all night long!
my dj was amazing! wereally had a more tradition guest list so i was a little worried at first but he dis an amazing job! if i ever need a dj again i will go back!!!
Sound in Motion DJs was fantastic! Our D.J. was Andrew Rivas and he did an outstanding job. I would highly recommend him for any event. The consumate professional!
Sound In Motion is the best of the best. I hired the co-owner to do my wedding (instead of one of the staff) and I could've been happier. He was a true master of ceremonies and d...
id such a class act job. From the timing of the music, to my personal requests, to dedications, to the awesome lighting - I wish I could get married again :). What an awesome party it was and the DJ sure knew how to keep the party hopping!

ct wedding we were looking for. He really helped everything go perfectly, I can't say enough great things about him!
I used the DJ service in Santa Cruz, and Andrew did an excellent job!! The dance floor was crowded the whole night! He really made it a fun night and even pronounced our last name ...
right, after much practice! Great service for a great price!
This place was nice to use. Kate was a great DJ and kept everything moving for us nicely.
Adrian was absolutely perfect. He helped so much with the flow of the wedding and created the perfect vibe for our wedding. We loved his skills!!! Didn't want the evening to end.
I can't thank Matthew Cope from sound in motion enough for the work he put into making our reception flow smoothly. He took the time to get to knowour taste in music, and even sugg...
ested that we get the guests involved by requesting their favorite songs before the wedding. He was perfect as an MC, especially with a non alcoholic venue! He did an amazing job!!
Adrian did a fantastic job! Great at appealing to all genertaions present at the reception.
We had Raffi DJ the wedding and he was fantastic. He read the crowd well and was able to play the perfect music to keep them up on their feet and dancing.

Kevin was an outstanding addition to our wedding. As everyone knows, the DJ/MC pretty much runs the show and Kevin was perfect. He was professional, fun, relaxed, and super nice! H...
e knew every detail to our wedding and made things run super friendly. Being able to use their website to put in all our requests was the perfect way to make me feel at ease about how things ran during our ceremony and receptions, as well as kept the music to what we wanted. :) Kevin couldn't have done better...young, fun, and professional - perfect combination!
