Our number one requirement for our wedding DJ was to feel completely confident about the sound system and the flow of the day once the ceremony started. A lot of DJs we spoke with were focused on throwing a rager but glossed over details that mattered to us, like making sure we'd be heard clearly during the ceremony. In our calls with Chris, in addition to trying to get a feel for the music we wanted, he took the time to understand what we wanted and did not want on our big day, and made sure we felt secure with what was going to happen. It was such a huge relief when we first talked to him. In the planning process, we gave full input on dinner and dancing playlists, which was our preference, but it was also clear he would've curated an amazing set on his own. He helped set realistic expectations for how crowds ebb and flow on the dance floor so we didn't stress when fewer people were dancing at certain moments. And he did an awesome job taking a massive list of guest song requests we'd collected in Apple Music using it to rotate through different styles and requests to keep different groups of friends and family dancing. Chris was also receptive to our additional requests and executed them flawlessly throughout the day and night, like reminding guests to use the photobooth and sign our guestbook, giving intro speeches before the bride and groom's tosses, and helping us cut songs like the first dance and mother-son dances to be the right length. We had an amazing time dancing. And the company also provided a photobooth assistant who was super helpful and made sure our guests were able to smoothly use the booth. read more

We had the absolute best experience with DJ Mike! From start to finish, he made our wedding day unforgettable. Not only did he keep the dance floor packed all night long, but he also flawlessly MC'd our entire day--from the ceremony to last call--with perfect timing and energy. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how much they loved the music! Mike has an incredible sense of reading the crowd and keeping the momentum going, making sure every generation was out there dancing and having a great time. His music choices were spot on, and his engagement with our guests made the night feel personal and interactive in the best way. One of our favorite parts of working with Mike was his online portal--it made curating our playlist so easy! We were able to include our favorite songs, genres, and special requests, and he mixed everything seamlessly into the flow of the night. He even took note of our "must plays" and "do not plays," so the vibe stayed exactly how we wanted it. To top it all off, Mike's photobooth bundle was a total hit! Our guests had a blast taking photos throughout the night, and it added such a fun, memorable touch to the celebration. From the first planning call to the final song, we felt completely taken care of with Mike. His professionalism, attention to detail, and talent truly elevated our wedding. 10/10--would recommend DJ Mike to any couple or event coordinator looking for someone who can do it all with style, energy, and heart! read more

Mike (C Squared Events) was the absolute BEST MC and DJ for our wedding at Monserate Winery! He totally got the vibe and kept the party going all night! I'd recommend him 1000% if you want your dance floor packed and your guests hyped. There's a reason he's snagged the California Wedding Day award so many times--he's just that good! read more

What a godsend Mike is. We could not have been happier hiring Mike through C Square Events as our DJ for our wedding. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and understood, and walked us through all the details and asked all the appropriate questions during the quote phase. His communication throughout was impeccable and really made us feel at ease, even with our slightly complicated set ups for both the ceremony and the reception. He understood our goals and style and what we wanted our wedding to feel like throughout. He provided the highest level of service on the day and was the perfect minimal but impactful emcee we were looking for. He maintained three different set ups at our venue with easy and provided amazing audio quality during out separated reception so that our officiants and my husband and I were heard clearly by our guests. Our dance floor was RIOTOUS, which was everything I wanted. Pictures to prove it. I was so so happy with our dance floor and the entire day, which was kept flowing smoothly and effortlessly by Mike. Honestly, god bless him. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Truly a gem of human as well. read more

Let's talk about wedding DJs. In my experience, they can either be corporate weirdos or douchey weirdos - no in-between and always weirdos. When we started planning our wedding, I was opposed to hiring a DJ at all. But then I met Mike. Mike was referred to us by our photographer and I am so glad he was! Mike was responsive from the beginning. He quoted us a great price and stuck to it. Mike is a one-stop-shop - MC, DJ, sound engineer. Having Mike on our wedding team was such a relief. He knew exactly what was needed, and anticipated anything we could possibly ask for. It was kind of uncanny. The week of the wedding, Mike reviewed with us all of the different music cues - parent procession, groom procession, bride procession, what to play when we leave, what to play during cocktail hour, what to play during dinner, how to arrange the toasts, etc. The guy was so on top of it...without him I'd still be looking for some playlist on Spotify! We were in such good hands with Mike. At one point, there was a schedule change because the food wasn't ready and I went to tell him and not only did he already know about it, he was working with the photographer to rearrange the schedule. His response to me was "Hey, you go celebrate with everybody. We'll handle this part." Mike also made sure that we had all of the mics and speakers we would need to handle a large outdoor space and that everybody who needed to be heard could be. As an MC, Mike read the room so well. He was funny, but not zany or wacky, and engaged with the guests but never becoming the focus. In his Yelp bio, Mike talks about how he enjoys being at weddings and helping people celebrate and after watching him in action...I believe him! The guests even commented about how Mike picked great songs for the crowd, offered a really cool mix to keep people happy, the energy up and alive, and just generally kept our reception and ceremony right in the pocket the entire time. I can't recommend Mike highly enough. Your wedding/event will be better for his involvement. read more

Mike was the DJ and MC for our ceremony and reception, he provided up-lighting, and a photobooth and we truly could not have asked for a better person to have done those jobs! From our first meeting with Mike we could tell he had a chill personality and a great passion and knowledge of music and all things weddings. On our meeting before our wedding, we met with Mike over zoom for over an hour and he made us feel less stressed about the overall wedding planning as he was able to answer questions we had about the timeline, processional order, and song selections for every part of the day. He also did not rush to get off the meeting, he took his time to ensure he understood what we had envisioned for the day and that he would be able to help make sure our wedding vision came to fruition. We also asked him to pick the first and last song of the day and he was excited to do so (spoiler alert, he picked a great one). The day of, working with Mike seemed like working with an old friend. He was very chill and remembered everything we envisioned. He was also a great protector of the timeline and kept things moving and was able to make great suggestions when things started to run late. Mike did an amazing job keeping the guests attention and stepping aside to make sure the attention was on my husband and I. Mike also did a terrific job of reading the room and playing the right songs to keep the most amount of guests dancing and also stuck to our song requests on the do not play list, the must play list, and our favorite genres. Additionally the lighting and photobooth were very professional. Lastly, after our wedding we received numerous compliments for the DJ and dancing. Numerous guests told us this was their favorite wedding and we attribute a lot of that to Mike. In conclusion, TLDR; book with Mike if you want to sleep easy knowing you will have a DJ who will play the songs you and your partner love, songs your guests will love, and who will be a timeline and wedding vision advocate for you. Book with Mike if you want to work with someone who will go above and beyond, not because he has to, but because he wants to. Book with Mike if you want the best DJ/MC in Southern California for an affordable price. read more

Mike was FANTASTIC! He really knows what he is doing and kept my wedding moving along and on track. I just got married at Lorimar Winery last weekend and got lots of compliments on the music. Mike was also a fantastic MC and remembered all the little details that we talked through the week before. I would highly recommend C Squared for any event you might need a DJ. I would hire him again in a heartbeat and know that music is one thing I won't need to worry about the day of! Oh and he's just a really nice an fun guy too! read more

We are so happy we had Mike Emcee our wedding at Mount Palomar in May! He was super easy to work with, we provided the timeline and the major event songs (which he helped provide suggestions for) and told him to just play to the crowd for the whole cocktail/reception time. He brought great energy and kept the guests dancing all night. I only had one song I for sure wanted played during the reception, and when we saw I got stuck taking some photos with guests during it, he started it over for me to fully enjoy. Thanks Mike!! read more

This has been a long overdue review, but we can't say enough great things about C Squared events. From start to finish, Mike was very professional, patient and well organized. And was able to plan our event on a very short notice. Day of wedding, he delivered nothing but the BEST! His amazing presence brought everyone to the dance floor, dancing the night away.

We hired Mike for our wedding in May and had an amazing experience! We booked him almost a year before our date and he remembered us like it had been the day before. We had a sit down meeting when we first booked him and then a long phone call a week or so before. He confirmed exactly how to pronounce everyone's names, made sure he had all of the correct versions of songs and ran through extra details about us. I felt like he really cared about our day and really wanted to make it special. The day of, everything was effortless (exactly what you want from a DJ!). All of the songs played correctly and he was flexible with the schedule. The whole event ran so smoothly and Mike was on top of it all. I highly recommend Mike & C Squared Events! read more

Csquare DJed our wedding at Galway Down in June of 2019. They did a great job with our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception and dance music; playing the songs most meaningful to us. They had a great interview sheet where we were able to think about our favorite songs and map out wedding songs. They also interviewed us to get to know us and go over our preference from what sound the groom walked down to, to the order of the reception. Our DJ even hosted a bride and groom "shoe game" that we put together. He was great and really added so much to our big day. They did such a good jobs keeping the flow of the wedding going and keeping it entertaining. Thank you! read more

Mike Carroll helped made my wedding night a success story. As promised.. he got everyone on the dance floor. We all had so much fun. Can't thank him enough. We were worried no one was going to dance at our reception but he exceeded our expectations. Mike is very flexible and knowledgeable when it comes to setting the environment and tone to your reception. He is very professional when it comes to music and scheduling. -Sal Saldana read more

Mike is an amazing EmCee and DJ! He is super responsive and was great to work with. Our wedding was exactly how we pictured it and he kept great energy and played the music we were looking for. Thank you Mike!! read more

Mike is a master at this craft! Although my husband and I aren't much of the dancers he really kept the party alive for both our talkative guests and our dancing ones. He blended both our tastes in music plus the occasional requests from our guests so seamlessly. For the most part we picked our main songs but we left our East Coast slow dance song up to him. He surprised us at the end of our first dance by picking a song for it we both did consider as a first dance song but how he knew that blows both our mind! Not only was it in consideration but it also had some meaning to us as it was a song we danced to in the kitchen the day I met his entire family. We only spoke once on the phone and we both just knew we would enjoy ourselves. He's an absolutely fantastic DJ and MC and we truly enjoyed having him apart of our day! We truly can't thank him enough for the amazing job he did! read more

We had a really pleasant experience working with Mike and Grant for our June 2022 wedding. Mike was especially great during our consultation. We felt heard, understood and valued as a potential client. Mike was helpful anytime we reached our during the process, and matched us with DJ Grant Bass who was exactly who we needed. Grant was an absolute pleasure to work with and he absolutely nailed it as our DJ. He handled our wedding, cocktail hour and reception and everything ran so smoothly. Grant helped us create the perfect wedding and we cannot thank him enough!!! Grant is respectful and knowledgeable when it comes to his craft and I highly recommend him if you're looking for a DJ. read more

Mike was such a pleasure to work with for our wedding! He is charismatic and knows exactly what to play to get the party going all night! Ahead of our event we had a couple of calls to organize requested songs, lighting choices, and photobooth options. He helped us with great suggestions/ideas that made a huge difference on our wedding day. I highly recommend Mike and his team for any event! read more

Mike was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Prior to the big day, he helped us find music that fit us for all the special moments. On the day of, he worked quickly through a few last minute changes without any issues. We've heard nothing but compliments on the music selection during the reception as well. He played to the crowd, keeping everyone on the dance floor all night and it was perfect. Thanks again Mike, you made our wedding perfect! read more

My wife and I hired Mike as our wedding DJ and could not be happier with his work. Mike was very easy to communicate with and answered all of our questions leading up to the wedding. His website makes it easy communicate all the things you want at your wedding. We only provided mike with the essential walk in and first dance songs. Besides those few songs we allowed him to do his thing and boy we are happy we did. Our wedding was close to 250 people and the dance floor was packed start to finish! Not only is he a great DJ but all his announcements during the wedding and introductions were perfect. Thank you so much Mike for making our wedding amazing! When talking to our guests their first comment about the wedding is "the DJ was amazing." Everyone loved your music and style. Thanks again Mike for everything! read more

End your DJ search right now and call and talk to him. read more

I would recommend Josh, Mike, and C Squared Events in a heartbeat to anyone planning a wedding in Southern California! My wife and I initially found out about C Squared Events because they DJ'd our good friends' wedding around the time we were starting our wedding planning process. The reception was great and we had an awesome time dancing that night. Our friends had nothing but positive things to say about the great personality, professionalism, and service of the C Squared staff. We looked at other DJs and packages but C Squared's pricing was very fair for the industry in Southern California and easily worth everything we received with our package. I am so glad that we chose C Squared Events for our wedding. Josh was our main DJ, but Mike's schedule allowed him to be present as well, simply because they wanted to make our event as great as possible. Josh was so helpful and made the equipment and music planning aspect for the wedding and reception an easy straight forward process. He was very flexible and enthusiastic in helping us, even when we changed our minds on everything several different times. That same energy and enthusiasm for his job and the wedding industry as a whole really made everything come together during our reception as he MC'd our scheduled agenda flawlessly and made sure everyone had a great time on the dance floor. read more

I found C Squared Events off a preferred list of vendors from our wedding venue, Temecula Creek Inn. Mike was the BEST DJ! He listened to our musical tastes and totally worked the crowd, he had our guests dancing ALL NIGHT. Our custom monogram light on the dance floor was a beautiful touch as well. He was so great and so patient with us, even at the last minute we decided to make a quick change to our First Dance song and he was game. For my bouquet toss, he actually made a throw bouquet himself because he didn't want to damage the one I carried down the aisle! He went above and beyond and we couldn't have been happier with him. Highly recommend!! read more

My husband and I got married three weeks ago, and I can't tell you how many friends and relatives since then have complimented us on our DJ! Mike was AWESOME. He just got it. He was able to really get the vibe we were going for for our wedding and executed perfectly. From the MC-ing to the music everything was perfect! Thank you Mike, you really helped make our day nothing short of magical and we are sooo very thankful for that. Hiring C Squared Events will be one of the best decisions you make for your wedding. Should we need a DJ in the future, C Squared is the call that we will make! read more

We chose C Squared as our DJ and opted to have our photobooth serviced by them as well for our wedding early February this year. We were happy with the music selection. However, the photobooth was far from great. The camera was aimed too high so it only captured shoulders up for the majority of our guests with too much room above (more backdrop than people). We were unaware of this until we were going through the images provided via flash drive. read more

After a lot of searching and not a lot of time before our wedding, we stumbled across C Squared Events. We decided to reach out and heard back from the owner, Mike. He came off very professionally, and with a different approach. Other DJ's we had spoken with or emailed were just fine with just shooting off a quote, or hourly rate, but Mike took the time to find out more about what we wanted before anything else. From the vibe and tone to what kind of lighting we wanted, all questions were addressed up front. What's more is he took the time to meet with us in person, beforehand, in order to have a face to face conversation and relieve any worries we may have had. After a good meeting and validation from the venue we had chosen, we knew Mike was a great choice. We hired Mike and enjoyed the consistent communication and online portal he utilized to keep everything organized and to our liking. Only a small down payment was required upon hiring and Mike was very flexible with the timing of the final payment. When it came to the wedding day, Mike was on time, efficient, and delivered exactly as promised. The ceremony was amazing and all songs requested played perfectly. He was sure to announce everything as the night went on, and played all music flawlessly. He accommodated every request we had and kept the guests entertained. Even during the bouquet toss when the single ladies were shy to come out to the dance floor, Mike kept the mood light and was able to get everyone going. You can tell he has experience! Thank you Mike and C Squared Events - Highly recommended! read more

Mike DJ'ed our wedding on 1.6.18 and he was wonderful. We got so many compliments on how great our DJ was! He had the perfect amount of interaction with the guests and kept everyone dancing until the end of the wedding. The whole planning process was easy and making payments through his website was very convenient. Mike has a great personality that meshes well with just about anyone. He was very organized and made sure he had all the names and details correct. This made for such a seamless day on his behalf. My husband and I would recommend Mike and C Squared Events for any event! read more

C Squared Events is the ONLY choice. Mike rocked our wedding to the fullest!!! Not only is he a DJ, he's also an MC so he has all the bases covered when it comes to the overall flow and atmosphere of the event.

He worked seamlessly with our coordinator to make sure the timeline flowed smoothly and is a true expert at his craft. You will definitely be more than happy going with C Squared Events! read more

We hired Mike as the DJ for our wedding in early March, on a tip from a friend and after reading through his stellar reviews. He was not only professional and organized, but really listened to what we needed and offered exactly that! From our initial conversation and deposit he set up a login for his website to input all our info, including music preferences and level of involvement from the DJ (i.e. from "just play music" to "make announcements" to "MC every moment of the night"). A few weeks out from the event we reviewed all the selections and timeline of events (i.e. 1st dances, toasts, announcements, etc.) and how everyone would be wired for sound at the ceremony. We had some specific requests but for the most part left it up to Mike to do what he does and keep the night flowing. Our venue was completely outdoors (with a tent) and of course the day/night of the wedding absolutely poured, then got colder as we got into the evening. No problem for Mike though! He never skipped a beat (see what I did there)...the ceremony was miked and heard by all present, the intros and announcements were perfectly timed (and he helped keep US on time), and the music was bumping throughout the night! Even with the cold, miserable weather he kept the energy up and folks on the dance floor. We were so so pleased with his work and would highly recommend him to any couples tying the not in the region! read more

Mike DJ'd our wedding in Temecula last September and was the absolute best! Not a single song choice was out of place. He has a great site for coordinating your music choices that ensures that everyone is on the same page. He had great energy, and the guests absolutely loved it. read more

Amazing DJ!!!! Everyone was on the dance floor, I mean everyone!! From my 4 year old nephews all the way to my 90 year old grandmother and in between. I was never worried about the music because I was working with a professional. When I emailed Mike with a question, he answered it right away. Every time my husband and I met with him, he worked the time around our schedules and stayed late for us. There was a little hiccup when it was time to toss my bouquet and I didn't have one, (florist issue) and before I knew it, Mike went around and grabbed flowers from the center pieces and wrapped it together with a napkin. I was in shock that with such ease, he had come to the rescue. I would definitely recommend Mike to anyone!! *Thank you Mike for rocking out my wedding!! read more

We highly recommended Mike as a wedding or special event DJ! He was just perfect. Leading up to the wedding, he was very professional, easy to get a hold of and meet for appointments, and fun to work with. He did a phenomenal job at our wedding. He was fun and got everyone out on the dance floor. So many of our guests told us how great they thought he was. Go with him for your wedding, you won't be disappointed! read more

Mike went above and beyond to set the tone of our wedding exactly the way we envisioned! He is incredibly knowledgable about music and atmosphere, and we felt completely comfortable with just giving him our broad vision and letting him run wild with his own ideas. My husband and I are huge Disney fans and wanted that to shine in our wedding without being too cheesy, and Mike knew exactly how to incorporate different songs throughout the night to capture our theme perfectly! He even added little touches that surprised us and made our reception so much cooler than we ever planned. Thanks for your talent, Mike! read more

DJ Mike was amazing! All the reviews we read were over a paragraph long on how wonderful it was to work with him. And every time I was asked about who our DJ was, I heard nothing but great things about Mike. We had a fun consolation with him and wanted to book him right away. He works up north but was able to meet us closer to San Diego. His website client website is super easy to work with and really helped with planning out the day and music we wanted. And once the music started the dance floor was never empty! He played such a great variety for all of us. We could even see him having a good time up on the stage. He took care of everything: from the ceremony to music during cocktail hour and dinner! So glad my husband and I got to work with him. read more

My wife and I interviewed several DJ's prior to our wedding. Mike (C Squared Events) came highly recommended and after we spoke with him, we knew why. Mike was friendly and a great resource while we planned our wedding. Mike made the planning for the music effortless, he asked what our musical tastes were and made a great song list from that. At our wedding, Mike was professional and kept the energy level high throughout the night. Mike stuck to our wedding plan even though people tried to make special requests for songs throughout the night. He was able to make quick last minute changes and made sure everything worked out.

We were referred to C Squared Events by our wedding coordinator and we are so incredibly happy that we were. Mike helped us get everything set up and he introduced us to DJ Martin. We sat with Martin and he helped us choose everything from start to finish. He really helped guide us through the process with ease, professionalism and humor. Mike got us set up with the lighting, he matched our colors perfectly and the lighting really enhanced our beautiful outdoor venue (winery) and made it perfect. The music was over the top amazing, Martin and Angela got the crowd moving and dancing and completely hit the fun button for everyone. Every single guest we spoke with mentioned the Music. Both Martin and Angela were amazing Emcees. We could not have gotten any better with the entire team at C Squared Events! I would absolutely recommend them to anyone and everyone. read more

I usually don't write reviews, but our DJ Josh did such an amazing job getting the crowd going that there was never a dull moment. We got the most raving reviews from our friends and family at our wedding about how much fun they had and how much they enjoyed our DJ. Just imagine trying to get a bunch of Chinese AND Indian people to go up to the dance floor. Josh did just that. The DJ really was one of the highlights of our wedding! C squared was also great to work with. Always really prompt with replies and will do what they can to make you happy. Would definitely use them again. They are also very reasonably priced. We used them for uplights, monogram, and dance lights. read more
