My wife and I hired DJ Artform for our wedding reception in San Diego. From the beginning, we knew Art was gonna be a good fit. His taste in music was expansive, he had a calm voice, and his professionalism made it an easy choice for us. We devised a list of "must plays" for our reception and Art curated similar sounds and music that fit perfectly with our playlist. Our guest list did not sit down once during the dancing portion of the night. Art was able to slowly build the crowd and never dropped the energy. We are so thankful to have found Art and would highly recommend him to anyone! read more

My wife and I hired DJ Artform for our wedding reception on a yacht. He went absolutely above and beyond to make everything perfect for us. His willingness to communicate and plan exactly what we wanted is elite status. His client process and ability to "get us" is special. I also work in the creative industry so I've experienced what it's like hiring and working with creative professionals before. DJ Artform is one of a kind and I recommend him to EVERYONE. Our reception would not have been as special if we used someone else. The energy and love DJ Artform brought to our most special party ever is appreciated more than I can describe. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! BOOK HIM NOW! read more

I cannot say enough good things about DJ ArtForm! From start to finish, Art made our wedding an unforgettable and stress-free experience. He took the time to truly understand our vision and went the extra mile to get to know us as a couple, which made the whole experience feel so personalized. Art consistently came across as professional and highly knowledgeable in his craft, but also as someone who is authentic, approachable, and warm. His ability to blend our favorite songs with the perfect mix for our guests kept the dance floor packed all night long. He read the crowd effortlessly and maintained an incredible energy throughout the evening. Art made sure everything went smoothly, from the music to the announcements, and created a vibe that was exactly what we wanted. He also catered to our Hispanic guests by making announcements and playing music in both English and Spanish which we thought was really special as it engaged all our guests. If you're looking for a DJ who not only knows his trade inside and out but also brings a genuine warmth and excitement to your special day, I highly recommend DJ ArtForm. We are beyond grateful to have had him as part of our wedding, and our guests are still raving about how amazing the music was! read more

Our wedding just wouldn't have been the same without Art to host our guests for us. He played all of the music we wanted to hear during the times we wanted to hear them. He was there to help us out and had all the equipment needed to run the ceremony when our plans changed just a couple of months before our wedding date. Our new venue needed us to bring everything in and our old venue had all of this equipment included. Art was super collaborative and such a team player. Being a natural planner, I really appreciated touching base with him throughout the whole planning process. He's a really great communicator and is very upfront about his equipment and his pricing package for rentals. Art is also really great at being in the background and running things without taking away any limelight from your special day. I highly recommend him. 10/10 for performance, music, communication, service, and equipment. (He even has an awesome lighting set!) I got so many compliments all night long about how great the DJ was. I would recommend him without reservation to anyone who's looking for someone easy to work with, a trustworthy & great party host, and someone who's really got you covered from ceremony to reception with any equipment you might need. read more

As a wedding planner that works across SoCal, it's very rare to meet a DJ that checks all the boxes. DJ ArtForm is that DJ! His level of professionalism, preparedness, ability to read a crowd, calm demeanor, and emcee skills put him at the top of my list. Art, it was truly a pleasure to work with you and I hope to do so over and over again. Thank you for your level of dedication to making G+F's wedding day so incredibly special. read more

We can't say enough positive things about Art! First of all, Art is one of the friendliest and most easy going people I have every met. Our first meet up to discuss his services was at a local brewery and I'd say within minutes we knew he was our guy. I'd like to pause here and say this first meet up was almost a year before our scheduled April 2020 wedding and also way before we knew COVID was even a thing. Art stuck with us through multiple reschedules during the pandemic and never once gave us any grief. Art really came through for us. Due to the pandemic and the major changes we had to make, Art became more than just our DJ. He damn near was our wedding planner! He showed up to the house we planned to have the wedding at weeks before to scope the scene and provide recommendations/suggestions for everything from music related things to the little details. This guys really wants you to have the wedding of your dreams and if he can, he will help make that happen. Unbeknownst to me and my husband, my dad reached out to Art on his own a week, maybe even days before the wedding asking him to help pull off a surprise performance by my childhood friend at the end of the father daughter dance. Art was all about it and was able to pull off an unforgettable experience for us! I can confidently say that DJ Artform will be the DJ for any of our events in the future! I promise you will be beyond happy with his services! Thanks Art!! You're the best! read more

DJ Artform was so awesome! He played killer, unique music. Art knew how to get everyone on the dance floor, and could mix tracks together in a really cool way. He was really easy to communicate leading up to the event, and was a pleasure to talk to. I appreciate how organized he was in outlining what music decisions needed to be made, and how well he answered our questions/requests about equipment. He was flexible to all day-of AV adjustments, like the micing required for our vows. Last, it was great how well he executed our change-of-music requests during the dancing portion of the evening. In all encounters, DJ Art was friendly, cool, and professional. read more

I will absolutely use him for any future events I may have, and will recommend him without hesitation. DJ Artform is not just a "company that DJ'd my daughter's wedding", he is someone who fit right in, gave us a great time, and is like family now! read more

I wish I could give 10 stars. Art is an INCREDIBLE DJ- he DJed our wedding last weekend and like other reviewers said, he had our guests dancing non-stop until the party had to end. He was great at communicating up until our big day- he took my music suggestions and mixed them with his expertise on what keeps a party going. He knew just how to read the party's energy so that he could change the music if need be. And everything flowed seamlessly. I can't even tell you how many of my friends and family complimented the DJ ("Where did you find him!?") and ask for his name/contact info for their next party. Not to mention, Art is one of the most authentic, honest people I've known, and he was a pleasure to work with and spend time with. THANK YOU Art. Music is such an important part of any event and you made all of our beach dance party wedding dreams come true!!! read more

DJ Artform did a fantastic job at our wedding. When planing our wedding we were looking for a bilingual DJ and Master of Ceremonies. A friend suggested DJ Artform, so we reached out to Art after meeting with other DJ's. Upon meeting with him he showed how detailed he would be and he took an interest in getting to know us so he could tailor the music to us and our style. If you are looking for a DJ who will be the life of the party with awesome music and just all around cool dude DJ Artform is your guy. read more

Book him !!!! After looking and looking for a DJ for my wedding. We went ahead and booked DJ Artform. He was quick to respond to my emails, or any questions I had through the whole process. He was awesome, played all the right music. I'm Hispanic and my now husband is Caucasian. So mixing the two cultures together I thought would be a challenge. He somehow made Cumbria and country music work ! Every single song he played I wanted to dance too! And I did!! If you want to dance all night or just want to have the right music playing book him! I later found out through one of my bridesmaids that someone requested a genre of music that we didn't want played. And he declined them! I love that; that showed loyalty to us his clients! And we didn't have to be the "bad " person on our wedding day. Thank you so much for everything; for being super down to earth. I felt like I was taking to a family member the whole night! read more

DJ Artform did a wonderful job with our wedding! He kept in touch through out the entire planning process and was quick to get back to me when I had questions.

I highly recommend DJ Artform to make your wedding perfect and unforgettable to all who attend! read more

Art is not only an amazing artist but a humble and genuine person. My fiancé, at the time, and I met him a few months before at a local brewery. He was professional from the beginning. He had ideas and a game plan for our wedding. He has his insurance and proper documentation for our venue on day 1. Art had our contract online and made the agreement process run smoothly. He was in constant contact with us throughout the planning process. He had a final meeting with me to hash out any details that were not covered previously. Art arrived to our wedding hours prior to the ceremony, even though we did not require him to be there until later. He came dressed very nicely in a suit and matched perfect with our theme. We gave him a vibe we wanted for the dinner then dancing and he was right on with what we requested. He emceed our reception in English and Spanish. Art was in constant communication with us and the wedding coordinator to keep the event running smoothly. If it wasn't for the venue closing the evening on time , we were ready to keep the party going all night with Art. With all the worries of the DJ making or breaking the party, Art made all the worries go away and we had a memorable evening with an impeccable artist. My family talks about the DJ and food being the best part of the night alongside the ceremony of course. Thank you Art, for starting our life as husband and wife with the party of our lives. We will never forget it!!! read more

Art was fantastic throughout our planning process and at our wedding. He was always responsive, positive and engaging leading up to the big day. Once our wedding day arrived, he was on it. Checked in just enough to make sure everything was going according to plan, and did an awesome job MC-ing our reception. And, he's just a cool, laid back, good person. Thanks Art! read more

What can I say? This man is fantastic! He is an ideal and respectful person, extremely professional, timely, and very responsible. I have been at his events, and hired him for one of my events, and he did not disappoint! He provided excellent sound, brought his entire equipment, and made my event a success! In regards to my needs, he was able to play the tunes and music I requested, while adding his own touch to the collection. Everyone at my event was extremely pleased and could not stop raving about the music played at the party. Simply the best. He has great taste in music, can understand the vibe and ambiance at parties, and knows just what to play, when to play it, and when to change it up! He is now the DJ I will recommend to all my friends, family, and colleagues. read more

Wow, just wow! DJ Artform officially has the best disco set in SD! I've been chairing events for almost 10 years with DJs from all over the county, and he is the best. We raised $30,000 at our school fundraiser; a great DJ has a lot to do with that. He is amazing to work with. read more

DJ Artform did an amazing job with the Bay Park Elementary Family Valentine's Dance. Perfect choice of age/kid appropriate songs that kept the kids dancing non-stop! He also rolled with the punches when a plumbing issue almost forced us to cancel the event at the last minute. Luckily the show went on! We will be back to book again for next year! read more

I met Artform at a social event at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (La Jolla) wherein he was DJ'ing. I really liked his musical tastes and the way that he worked the crowd and grabbed one of his business cards. As a lover of music myself, I can really appreciate DJ's who spin for the crowd and the venue/occasion and not just play pre-selected musical items or worse, a pre-recorded mix. I can do that at my event for free! Art actually puts thought and effort into his...art. Also, he is extremely professional and is a reputable businessman. I requested a quote from Art to DJ a wedding in LA for my friend. From the quotation to packing up after the wedding, working with Art was a delight. And as expected, the musical selections were great. All of the guests of the wedding had a wonderful time at the wedding, cocktail hour and reception, due in no small part to the attention of detail paid by Art. I hope that he can find time in his busy schedule for my next event! read more

We got married about 3 months ago and had the pleasure to had DJ Art as our wedding DJ. He was friendly, responsive and very professional from the beginning of the process.

We were looking for a bilingual (Spanish and English) speaking DJ that helps us made our latinos friends feel like home and HE DID ! He played amazing music all night and all our friends complemented the music! If you are looking for s DJ for your wedding or special event, you should definitely give him a call. read more

So if you haven't taken the time to get to know Art it's your loss because he really is a class act. I have had him DJ several corporate events the last few years and he has always been great to work with. He's an outstanding guy with a great work ethic. Also if you don't know, he DJ'd at a pride event a couple years ago and is DJ'ing for a gay couple next month at their wedding. Great DJ and an even better person! read more

Art was absolutely amazing at our wedding. He was amazing every step of the way. We requested a meeting before to discuss the music as he was going to play music for the ceremony, cocktail hour, Emcee and DJ the grand entrance and the reception. We chose the songs in the ceremony, gave a few suggestions for the type of music we wanted at cocktail hour, and again for the reception. He did a great job with getting all the names right in our bridal party and our families and checking in with our wedding coordinator the entire day. All events went as scheduled from the first dance, to the cake cutting, to the bouquet toss. The music he played was great, we had people on the dance floor all night long! The dance floor was never empty. All our guests said they all had a blast and that they loved our DJ. I would definitely recommend him. read more

DJ artform was amazing from start to finish .we first met in January to discuss the time frames, music and set up .

The guy killed it at our wedding earlier in October. He was an awesome guy, really mellow and adaptive to our requests. He had no problem picking fun songs and tailoring it to our requests, even as the mood changed through the night. Highly recommended. read more

This review is LONG overdue... Art DJ'd my wedding in the fall and he was AMAZING to work with. Prior to the wedding, he was super organized, had a great energy, met with my husband and I to formally discuss the timeline, vibe, music selection, etc. And he was super responsive any time we'd reach out with question or updates. During the wedding, he had a fantastic energy, totally kept the mood up and he checked in with me to take temperature checks to see how I was feeling and if I wanted anything changed or if I wanted to hear something in particular. He was so amazing -- I would highly recommend him for your wedding or any special event! Thanks Art. read more

DJ Artform recently DJ'd our baby shower and did an amazing job! He got to the shower earlier than planned to give himself enough time to set up. He was so easy to work with and gracious to all who attended. Since it was a baby shower (more like a party, but still...), he played music that fit the party... Without any input from us - that's how on point he is. Guests are still raving about how great the music was, and the only person who can take credit for that is Art! We would recommend DJ Artform to anyone for any occasion. He is a pleasure to work with and will not disappoint! read more

I have hired Art for 2 nieces weddings. Both nieces were very happy with Art's service. He is professional and will go above and beyond to make a customer happy. I Did not have one issue with Art. I will hire him again. read more

DJ Artform is our new favorite DJ for Clairemont Girls Fastpitch! He was our amazing DJ for our Dance and Movie Night in April. I asked our players and they said they loved him!!! We will definitely have him come back next year for our Dance and recommend him for other events to people. He was a true DJ that helped with the event and made everything run smoothly! He made it so fun and entertaining for all attendees! read more

Art is a true professional from beginning to end. He was really helpful in the entire process for our wedding. He took the time to help us go over the emcee details as well as the song playlist. We had a lot of compliments from the guest about him as he kept everything flowing throughout the entire night. I would highly recommend him for your next dj/emcee services. Thanks Art! read more

Golden West College recently held a first ever event to celebrate the college's 50th anniversary. DJ Artform was contracted and there could not have been a better fit. DJ Artform was prompt with contract signing and on the day of the event he was set up in no time, then tore down immediately without disruption or need for guidance. Moreover, when he first arrived for the event he voluntarily setup quickly to provide (non-contracted) free listening music for the set up crew, just because he's a team player. Throughout the event he displayed an uncanny talent to read the audience and play music that was family appropriate but also kept the party lively. His presence was so much appreciated that many attendees stopped to speak with him and gather his contact information for future events. If you have a private or corporate event and are looking for a DJ that will keep the party going and be of no hassle at all, look no further than DJ Artform. Whenever possible we at GWC will look to have him back in the future. read more

I cannot say enough great things about DJ Artform! I was in charge of planning a formal event for about 100 guests, and DJ Artform did a TERRIFIC job! He was extremely flexible and easy to work with, and integrated an extensive song request list. We also had to do awards at the event, and he helped us to make it run smoothly. I really can't thank DJ Artform enough for all of his hard work for the event! I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a DJ for any type of event! read more

Artform did a great job for our wedding! He emceed the entire night and announced everyone's name in the wedding party correctly. He was professional and on time, brought his own equipment and was able to show proof of insurance for the venue. We gave him the names of all the songs we wanted to use for the processional, recessional, dances and such and he played the exact songs. He played good dance music to get people going too, keeping all our suggestions and wishes in mind. Overall he was great and I would recommend him to any of my friends to use. read more
